Tesarik One: Ok, we have a LOT of people playing tonight so here's a few
rules.
SwordOfAtrophy: (good)
Tesarik One: 1) Feel free to do something in your post like bolding the name
of ther person you are talking to, so they know they are being addressed. If
you talk to someone and they do not respond, a gentle nudge in IM works in
case they missed
Tesarik One: the rp. Easy.
Tales0fBeauty: (good here)
Tesarik One: 2) On the same token, if I miss something YOU do, IM me. I'm
only human and I am trying to read EVERYONE's posts, plus play NPC's plus
keep the SL going plus questions usually in IM. So don't think i'm ignoring
you, I may just have
Tesarik One: missed it.
Tesarik One: 3) Don't fuckin split the group tonight or I will keel you all.
Tesarik One: Got it?
SwordOfAtrophy: (-skeerd-)
Tales0fBeauty: (fears the blod font!!!)

Mighty Gar thog: (Awwww!)
Howling Ember: I'll take Velma and Scooby.. you guys take Fred and Daphne.
Tales0fBeauty: (bold* cause i can spell!)
RageofNocturne: split the group got it)
Tales0fBeauty: ( ::Snuggles ember!:: )
Howling Ember: -is all snug like a big-
Tales0fBeauty: ( ::twaps rage:: )
Tesarik One: I saw snuggles Ember and was like...what, where's my cat?
Tesarik One: My cat's name is Ember lol. Anyway.... let's go.
Tales0fBeauty: ( Thwaps* seriously?!)
Tales0fBeauty: ( lol that is too funny!)
Mighty Gar thog: (lol)
Tales0fBeauty: (yes i kidnapped your cat while you werent looking!)
Tesarik One: SO. Maria calls the group together, the Port Union mage is
already arrived and the portal is open for them. A quick briefing, after all
that's why it's a BRIEFing, lets the group know that two scouting patrols
have gone missing in
Tesarik One: the Scourcone Forest this past week, both originating from
Deepwood. This is not TOO far from Navahla, to the west, but to save time you
will be traveling by portal. It is feared that the patrols are lost, or even
dead, and so you
Tesarik One: have been called in to find them. A rescue party it seems. Your
contact awaits you on the other side of the portal. Step on through, and get
going! (Begin RP)
Tales0fBeauty: She would show up answer the call the like the good ranger
she was! Snowflake was on alighted on her right shoulder and she was dawned
in her bright new shiny Blueice amour! so hopefully she wouldnt die this time
around, and
Mighty Gar thog: ~The dwarf had no weapons out and was happily drinking from
his tankard. When he heard a rescue was needed, he thought this may be a
heroic thing... something to make a story of. Through the portal went the
bard~
The Lunar Beacon: He listened attentively to the information they were
given, nodding as he put the details to memory and stepped on through the
portal. A roll of his shoulders given as he steadied himself and waited for
the group to emerge, hoping
The Lunar Beacon: someone was along that would be able to track and notice
signs, for that was not his calling in life.
Tales0fBeauty: snowflake had a collar that helped him as well! so hopefully
he wouldnt die either, cause well they were both tired of dying or nearly
dying! she would offer a frinedly smile to all who were they, she was a moon
fey so while she
Howling Ember: -Well time to go on another adventure and boy was this most
handsome of ghost elves ready to join the party. That long armored robe he
wore was decadent and fancy, practically shining like the night sky as
diamonds decked across
SwordOfAtrophy: The ever present silver haired handmaiden was behind Luna,
always slightly to the left to easily be able to step into the way of danger.
Her pale green eyes saw everything but seemed to look at nothing as she
followed calmly, the
Tales0fBeauty: look mostly elvish her features in her face and ears were
actually more feline or cat like. Her hiar was silver, and her eyes were
silver as well. She would pat snowflake on the head and he nuzzled into it
and gave a screech and
Howling Ember: dark fabrics and light furs. A moment to fix his hair and
ensure he looked his most amazing, until that juvenile immature unicorn poked
him in the ass with that sword horn to nudge him on. Shilling happily breyed
and pranced around
psionic wanderer: A rescue party, that was the sort of task Gerry would be
happy to go along with. He got himself all geared up, which..really just
consisted of his pack and his ever-present rapier, so it was easy to get
ready! He Had a look around
Tesarik One: Talasyn watched the group gather, smiling softly as she
finished a cup of tea and set it down. She pulled on her white gloves, and
rose, adjusting the hat atop her white curls. She certainly did not look like
she was prepared for a
SwordOfAtrophy: large katana gripped firmly in her hands, a steel
breastplate covering her form. Ready for anything and everything.
Tales0fBeauty: ruffled his wings some and she would hear maria briefing and
she would offer her a smile "dont worry we go this!" she would say
confidently and would step through the portal!
psionic wanderer: the people who seemed to be gathering to see if Tally was
going to come along. He certainly hoped she did, considering she was probably
the only reason he was still alive enough to go on quests himself!
Howling Ember: her owner, chitin barding decked out on her body, a sword
specially made to rest over her horn, she was ready for battle! A sigh from
Janus at the black beauty's excitement and then he slipped on through the
portal as well- -d
Tesarik One: mission in her lovely silken dress with all it's ruffles and
lace, but she'd go nonetheless. Of course Tally would be going along if Gerry
was going, she was tasked with keeping the man alive. She came up beside him
and reached over
Tesarik One: to squeeze his hand.
RageofNocturne: :: Lorcan came along since he didnt have much going on back
home and lookd over the others having his two swords in an x on his back and
his dagger stuffed in his sock. He crossed his arms over his chest and
listened then smirked as
RageofNocturne: he pat the sides of his kilt down and well he would move to
head through the portal-D-
SwordOfAtrophy: Jane was.. a little hesitant about portal travel, after the
last time.. but toughed it out and stepped through.
psionic wanderer: He smiled to Tally and gave her hand a squeeze right back,
then leaned in and placed a kiss on her cheek. "Well, hopefully this will go
a bit better than the last time I went out." At least he was an optimist!
That said, he made his
psionic wanderer: way on through the portal, hand resting on his rapier's
hilt just in case there was some need to draw it immediately.
Tesarik One: "Shall we," she said softly, smiling brightly at the kiss. "I
would hope so." She headed with him for the portal, a slight bow of her head
to Maria first, and then onwards she went.
Gemmed Wings: -Celeste was decked out as well in her shiny coin armor
glittering golden with a long silvery cape that seemed to dance with each
step she took. Even the brooch she wore speak of her wealth and position as
she had to
Gemmed Wings: laugh softly and reach up to smooth her braid of dark hair
before patting the unicorn on the rump urging her through the portal before
stepping through herself and moving to Janus's side and allowing her lips to
lightly
Gemmed Wings: dance along his cheek as she whispered.- " Mmmm you look good
enough to make you part of my hoard..."
OnlineHost: Tales0fBeauty has left the room.
The Lunar Beacon: A nod was given to Gerry and Tala as they stepped through
the portal, glad to see some familiar faces. He'd give a smile to them both,
then turned his attention on their surroundings. "Gerry, Tala." He was
attempting to be
Tesarik One: A man stood on the other side of the portal. They were on the
outskirts of Deepwood, a village deep within Scourcone. There was a well worn
path heading into the pine forest where they stood. He waited for them all to
gather, so he
Tesarik One: would only have to speak once.
OnlineHost: Tales0fBeauty has entered the room.
Tales0fBeauty: (stupid touch screen!)
The Lunar Beacon: reserved this eve, taking note of who all was present as
they gathered beyond the portal and said a quick prayer of blessing and
strength(Mass Good Hope, 6 hp boost to 6 pcs: Gerry, Tala, Janus, Celeste,
Luna and Jane, dc 13 if
The Lunar Beacon: any flaws require saves).
OnlineHost: SwordOfAtrophy rolled 1 20-sided die: 1
SwordOfAtrophy: (....seriously..)
Tesarik One: Noted. Give me a moment to do maths.
Tales0fBeauty: She would feel the paladins mircle power and she would look
to him and gave him a soft smile "Thanks!" she was glad for any help really!
Gemmed Wings: (get it out of the way now.)
Tales0fBeauty: (some one better sacrifice a kitten to the dice gods!)
Howling Ember: (Take my cat she is being annoying)

Tesarik One: Did not add to Jane since she failed save.
SwordOfAtrophy: She shivered, feeling a sudden strange radiance wash over
her, and instinctively she resisted it.
psionic wanderer: Well, he felt healthier, and that was always a good thing.
He nodded in return to Brendan. "Hello there, Sir Pearce." He then looked to
the man that was assumedly going to give them some information and moved out
of the way so that
psionic wanderer: everyone could gather 'round to listen.
Tesarik One: (Does anyone have Knowlege (Nature) or Knowledge (Sarkotos -
Region) or Knowledge (Botany) or Knowledge (Geography)? )
psionic wanderer: (None of the above here)
Gemmed Wings: ( nope)
Mighty Gar thog: ~The dwarf looked to the man, reaching into his backpack of
holdingand pulling out his newstick~
Howling Ember: (Janus has Knowledge All)
Tesarik One: (Pick one to roll for then Janus)
The Lunar Beacon: (Not I)
Howling Ember: (We will do Sarkotos Region)
OnlineHost: Howling Ember rolled 1 20-sided die: 9
Tesarik One: She felt the magic, and glanced over to Brendan and gave him a
smile and a nod, then looked back to the man about to speak to them.
Howling Ember: ((+11 = 20)
Mighty Gar thog: all krakens bracelet- botany
OnlineHost: Mighty Gar thog rolled 1 20-sided die: 15
psionic wanderer: (Oh hey I have a bracelet too! Forgot. I'll do Geography)
Mighty Gar thog: (18)
Tales0fBeauty: (she just knows how to track and kill things)
OnlineHost: psionic wanderer rolled 1 20-sided die: 16
Howling Ember: -He felt the magic was over him and nodded some, this was
pleasant. He had a new trick of his own so he might as well use it to help
out some of the gang as well. A lick of his lips and he would blow his magic
out with a soft kiss,
psionic wanderer: (+2 from Fizz bracelet = 18)
Howling Ember: covering himself, Celeste, Tally, and Brendan with that warm
loving energy- (Go with Love +7 Damage absorb to Janus, Tally, Celeste,
Brendan)
Tesarik One: (Info sent via IM)
Tesarik One: Spell noted, up to each of you affected to remember to use it.
Howling Ember: (Brendan refuses my love so... add that 7 Absorb to.. Tales!)
Tales0fBeauty: (okies!)
Mighty Gar thog: ~The dwarf would pick up any pine cones he saw~ These
things are nearly hard as rock, y'know. The insides taste great.
Tesarik One: "Hello. Yes, yes, let me give you a briefing before you travel
into the Scourcone. We regularly patrol the area, because we are often
attacked by all manner of brigands and creatures, we send out two a week.
They are gone 2 days,
Tales0fBeauty: She would feel the love from Janus and she would give him a
soft smile "thanks for the help!"
RageofNocturne: :: He looked over the others and and then cracked his neck
and smirked feeling the relief of the pressure in his joints and then
wwatched the others only to look at the dwarf and lifted a brow-- Munch on em
iffn ya want boy-o. They
RageofNocturne: not be fillin me any. --he said and then smirked-D-
Tesarik One: return, we wait a day or so, and a new patrol is sent out. Our
first patrol this past week never came back, so we sent out our second. They
should have returned yesterday, but did not. So instead of losing another
patrol we sought
Tesarik One: your help. I have a map of the patrol path." He held the small
hand-drawn map up of the path the patrol always took.
The Lunar Beacon: His attention was split, focusing on the speaker and their
surroundings, the majority of it going to the speaker. He knew the
importance of scouting patrols, so he was glad to be along on this mission to
learn their fate. He had a
The Lunar Beacon: few questions, but waited to be sure the man was done
speaking before addressing him.
Mighty Gar thog: Wa, were they on foot, or mounted?
Tesarik One: "On foot."
psionic wanderer: "Hm. We'll have to watch out for orcs and other critters
that might be on the offensive." Said to pretty much everyone! He wasn't sure
why he knew that, either, but it must be that bracelet he was wearing. Fizzy
had told him it
psionic wanderer: might help him know some things. He looked back to the
fella giving them some information and nodded a bit. He'd also try and get a
better look at the map, if he'd hand it over! And then he would, of course,
pass it around so
psionic wanderer: everyone else could have a look.
Gemmed Wings: - Eyeing the pinecone grapping Dwarf she shook her head and
then looked to the one telling them this infomation.- Has this ever happened
before? Patrols going missing?
Tesarik One: "No."
Mighty Gar thog: I see. ~he took a look at the map, nodding with a smile~
Howling Ember: Used to be such a nice place, many a lady shared a delightful
picnic with me before we got lost in the trails here.. -He figured what the
other said was enough of a warning for how dangerous the place was now so he
wouldn't double
Tales0fBeauty: She would glance at the map and commited it to memory and
then she would nod to the one speaking to them "is there anything else we
should know?"
Gemmed Wings: And are they trained men or locals that have taken up arms?
Tesarik One: "You may take the map with you. The patrols consist of six men
and women each. So, twelve in total are missing."
Tesarik One: "A mix of both."
Tales0fBeauty: She would nod and she would take the map cause well she was
right there!
The Lunar Beacon: His own Fizz item carried a unique scent about it. He
made sure to have plenty of breathing room around himself, as it was a bit
strong . . . if not offensive to the senses of some. It was a handy cloak,
however. He eyed the man
Howling Ember: up and repeat it, instead joining the wee dwarf in taking a
look at the map- Hmmm.. Were any of them of any specific race or were they
all human? -d
Tales0fBeauty: "fear not we will find them be it dead or alive we will find
them and put a stop to whatever is taking them!"
Tesarik One: "Mostly human and half-elf in our village."
Gemmed Wings: - A nod to the man as she frowned some and would then look
down the path her eyes narrowed as she thought and then blinked and gave
Janus a rather dirty look.-d
The Lunar Beacon: quietly a moment, he must have been a mindreader, as his
questions were answered before he could even ask them. "We'll do our best to
bring them back safely. Thank you for bringing this to our attention."
Tesarik One: "Most just wear leather armor, carry swords. They aren't sent
out to fight large parties of enemies, merely to patrol and let us know if
they find encampments and the like, so larger parties can attend to it."
SwordOfAtrophy: "Do they have supplies for spending days in the woods?" The
soft voice asked. Getting lost might not be a common occurence, but it was
certainly possible.
RageofNocturne: :: Hmm... alright lookin for twelve. --he said and shrugged
and then nodded-- We will be handlin it there boy-o. --he said and lifted his
hand to touch his fizz blade and then he would take a step ahead looking down
the road--D-
Tesarik One: "Not more than a week's worth."
Tesarik One: "Thank you all. This is the main path into the Forest they all
take when they leave." He pointed to the path, and it was clearly marked on
the map.
Tales0fBeauty: She being the ranger she was would get to tracking! and well
since she had the map she would take the lead as well! and she did so
silently! (Silent Tracker)
Tesarik One: Tally remained quiet, listening. After all, she was there to
try and keep everyone alive if needed, not to fight since she'd taken several
vows that prevented her from doing so. She rested her hand on Gerry's
shoulder as they stood
Mighty Gar thog: Have anything with their scent on, by chance?
Tesarik One: there, then readied to move out.
Tesarik One: He picked up a small basket, that had various items in it,
things the family had gotten together from as many of the missing as
possible. "Yes."
Mighty Gar thog: Very good. ~The dwarf took the basket in hand, smiling~
Tesarik One: Everyone move on out!
psionic wanderer: He looked to the basket, but well..he couldnt' track by
scent at any rate, maybe someone would find it handy! There was also some odd
smell nearby that wasn't particularly pleasant. He smiled to Tally, then
started off towards the
psionic wanderer: path, no sense in dallying any further when people were in
trouble! He did whisper to her, though, as they walked.
SwordOfAtrophy: She was ready, and when Luna moved she would follow. The
missing had supplies to survive if they were simply lost, so they were not in
danger of starving to death. That meant they might have been captured, or
killed.
The Lunar Beacon: Well, now that the questions had been answered and Luna
set about tracking, he followed suit. He kept close to the front of the
group, wanting to be sure he was in range to come to the aid of any who might
need it. He'd still not
Howling Ember: Well, keep an eye our for orcs and the like out here, the
forest is rather dark and creepy these days. -Moving over to the dirty
looking Celeste he patted her on the backside and flashed her that smile she
could not resist- Do not
Mighty Gar thog: ~He lifted each item, taking a breath, catching the scent,
then placed it back in the basket, to hand it back to the man~
Tesarik One: It was winter, so it was fairly cold in the evergreen forest,
but the paths were clearly marked through the beautiful forest. Not a lot of
undergrowth, it had been a popular place at one time.
Howling Ember: fret for the past my dear, though I have many memories.. I
only make future ones with you.. -Gotta avoid sleeping on the gold piles
tonight- -d-
The Lunar Beacon: grown used to the scent of his own cloak yet, so his face
looked slightly pinched at it. With the weather, he was glad for the extra
warmth it provided however.
Tesarik One: She started walking, and then hearing Gerry she gave a little
nod. Hands folded behind her, they were gloved, and rested upon the silk and
satin of her lovely dress.
Tales0fBeauty: She had already moved out and she was well on her way! She
was (Immune to cold) as well so the snow was her home, and snowflake was a
(Winter child) so he was quite comfortable as well in the cold, she would
keep on tracking where
Tales0fBeauty: the path lead her!
Gemmed Wings: Lost in the woods hmm.. - She looked over at Janus and then
started walking though she had a slight smirk.- Well maybe sometime I will
share with you the tale of the month with the large golden dragon who came a
calling...
RageofNocturne: :: He moved out with the group sticking around the middle of
it for now as he moved along crouching for a moment to pull out his dagger
and continued to move along then lifted a brow hearing Celeste and -- Golden
Dragon ey? Ya know
Tesarik One: The path led into many paths, what exactly is she using to
track? Too much time has passed, and too many travel these paths, to track by
footprint.
RageofNocturne: me scales be gold in the light of day. --he said and smirked
over towards her-D-
Tales0fBeauty: (scent?)
psionic wanderer: He wasn't near the front of the group, himself. He knew it
was good to lead by example and all that, but well..he wasn't the leader, nor
was he a tracker, so following would be the best option for now.
Mighty Gar thog: ~He placed the Fizz stick upon the ground. It transformed
into a mule. He simply mounted the creature and followed along, trying to
catch any of the missings scents~
Tesarik One: You can't track by scent if you don't have the scent to follow.
Only Krag asked for the basket of clothing to catch the scent.
Tales0fBeauty: (and she is a Ranger- can track anything- ranger skill)
Tesarik One: (Yes she can track anything, but you have to have the means to
track.)
The Lunar Beacon: Given the possibility of unknown varieties of assailants,
he set his ioun stone(eastern star, grants Polylingual) to orbit about his
head so he'd be able to understand anything they came across. As they came
to a stop near the
Tesarik One: If she is given footprints, broken undergrowth, etc she can
follow it like a charm. But, too many people travel these paths to track by
footprint. It's a beaten path. But you all have a map of where the patrol
was supposed to go.
Tales0fBeauty: (well then does folowing the map work?)
Tesarik One: Yes, that's why I gave it out.
Tales0fBeauty: (well then she is follwoing the map and tracking that way!)
The Lunar Beacon: splitting of paths he simply turned his attention to the
woods, keeping an eye and ear out as they waited.
Mighty Gar thog: ~Thinking of the map, if the others stopped, he continued
on the route the missing patrol was to take~
Gemmed Wings: Oh really? I do favor gold as you can see. - A shimmy of her
body making the golden coin armor clink some as she walked closer to the
other dragon though she was keeping a look out in case they were attacked.-d
RageofNocturne: :: He smirked-- I indeed did see that lass. --he looked to
her-- Just may have t' be takin ye t' keep in my hoard. --he said and
chuckled-D-
Tesarik One: You all follow the path the patrols took for a few hours. The
canopy is high and thick, so the sun filters through rather darkly. In some
areas, unless you have darksight it's just too dark and shadowy to see.
The Lunar Beacon: He'd break out his lantern as it was needed to continue
the trek. He was just a plain ol' human and still had yet to invest in
augmenting his vision capabilities.
Tesarik One: Those following by scent, suddenly your trail goes cold. Anyone
using any means to track besides just watching the map, everything goes cold.

Tesarik One: Roll a Spot!

Howling Ember: -A little distracted by miss dangly coin dress trying to
flirt and get to him, so he would step up after her and slide his arm into
hers- Do all of you dragons use that line? Come now.. let us focus on finding
these people and try
Mighty Gar thog: (doubt my magic mount gets a roll)
Howling Ember: to make each other jealous later.. -d-
Tesarik One: 10+ notice crows in various places, there's a lot of crows.
Howling Ember: Oh look, murders of crows.. -They were doomed- -d-
OnlineHost: RageofNocturne rolled 1 20-sided die: 4
Tesarik One: 15+ notice the crows are lined up roosting shoulder to shoulder
in long lines, sprawling across tree branches in some cases.
RageofNocturne: 9)
SwordOfAtrophy: Odd snicker. "Murders..."
Tesarik One: 20+ notice that it looks almost like some sort of shape they
are forming, geometric maybe.
OnlineHost: GIXReaper has entered the room.
Tesarik One: Anyone who rolled 15+ may also make an Insight Check now.
Gemmed Wings: ... Hmm look more like a snack line to me... I could make
short work of the annoying beasties.... - She would giggle and look over at
Janus.- And yes we all use that line.. Standard pick up.. why do you think we
always get maidens..
SwordOfAtrophy: She looked at the odd assortment of birds. Her pale green
eyes flickering this way and that. "Wait.. a moment... there.. is a strange
pattern to them... does.. anyone else see that?"
Mighty Gar thog: Oh! I dreamed of crows. I just thought my ability was
fallible.
OnlineHost: SwordOfAtrophy rolled 1 20-sided die: 16
SwordOfAtrophy: (+5) = 21
Tales0fBeauty: She would stop in her tracks and she would look to the crows
she would climb up a tree and she would use her (commune with nature) to ask
them what was going on.
Tesarik One: Roll a Climb Check, Luna.
Tesarik One: This is a tall pine, difficult to climb, not a lot of branches
down low!
Tales0fBeauty: (tree stride-able to travel through trees teleporting to
each)
Tesarik One: So are you asking the trees for aid or the birds? Because
teleporting from tree to tree isn't a climb.
OnlineHost: Tales0fBeauty rolled 1 20-sided die: 16
OnlineHost: GIXReaper has left the room.
SwordOfAtrophy: "Madame.." Jane called from the forest floor. "See if you
can get above the birds.. I have a feeling the shape is important."
Tales0fBeauty: +17 (+5 atheltics, +12 QCK- agile athlete)= 33
Tesarik One: Pass.
Mighty Gar thog: ~The dwarf pulled out his doomharp, ready to play, if
needed. Who knew what may occur next~
Tesarik One: She shivered a bit and stood close to Gerry, there wer eway too
many crows for her liking just ..everywhere. When she heard Jane speak of
getting above them, she shook her head, her form was land-bound
unfortunately.
RageofNocturne: :: He chuckled-- Indeed we do boy-o. --he said to Janus and
looked over the birds and put the dagger back in his sock and decided to
bring out his fizz siphoning blade instead holding it in both hands and well
wasnt he looking rathe
The Lunar Beacon: Well, he hadn't noticed anything too interesting about
crows. He found birds in trees to be something one should expect when
traveling in the woods, so he retained his normal state of awareness. And
then their tracker was climbing
RageofNocturne: highlandish-D-
psionic wanderer: He didn't even see the crows, much less any pattern they
might be in, so he just stayed quiet and looked about, to see if perhaps he'd
have a better idea once they were pointed out to him. He never was much of a
tree climber
psionic wanderer: himself!
OnlineHost: hermitworkaholic has entered the room.
The Lunar Beacon: a tree. That caused him to scratch his chin as he
watched, mindful of the spikes on his gauntlet.
Tales0fBeauty: She would nod down to jane she would send snowflake to do
just that through her (Beastfriend collar) she gave him the circle command
and she would be able to see what he saw as she threw him the (Cats eye
Jewel) She had and he
Tales0fBeauty: caught it nimbly with his claws with the "fetch" command.
OnlineHost: SwordOfAtrophy has left the room.
Tesarik One: Well, anyone who didn't see the crows blending in would see
them once they were pointed out!
OnlineHost: SwordOfAtrophy has entered the room.
Gemmed Wings: Well if we really need to see the shape.. -Her armor shifted
some and her cape would be pushed to the middle as a large pair of crystal
wings would errupt from her back in a dazzling display even in the shadows of
the woods, any
Mighty Gar thog: (wb)
Gemmed Wings: light around her reflecting off the crystal scales as she
looked upwards.- I could take a look..
Howling Ember: Whoa.. -He stepped to the side quickly to avoid those
spectacular wings as she popped them out her back- Go on and take a peek.
Perhaps if you go full dragon you might just attract the attention of whoever
did the bad things to the
Tesarik One: The bird who is circling above the trees is relaying to Luna
what is seen. But, if anyone else wishes and is able to go up there, feel
free too!
Howling Ember: good people. -Yeah send the dragon to be bait, such a good
boyfriend- -d
Tales0fBeauty: She would nod to her crow friends and then she would climb
back down and she would call for snowflake once she saw the image in her mind
and he would drop the cats eye jewl in her hand and she would look to the
others "Seems like
Tales0fBeauty: there is some sort of circle of power here it looks duridic
to me, that might be what is causing the parties to dissapper some sort of
powerful something is afoot..."
Gemmed Wings: Great they found a fairy circle.. everyone avoid mushroom
patchs.. -
Tales0fBeauty: She gave a smile to jane "thanks love."
Tesarik One: (You all have mail of the pattern)
SwordOfAtrophy: A nod, a rare smile for Luna. "Of course, madame."
Tesarik One: Did Luna show them the pattern? Sorry if I sent mail you do not
know that until she draws it in the dirt for you or otherwise shows you the
exact pattern.
Tales0fBeauty: She woudl then lean down and with her claws drew in the dirt
the pattern big enough for them all to see "anyone recognize this pattern or
symbol?" she posed to them all
Tesarik One: There we go!
Tales0fBeauty: (yep got it!)
Howling Ember: (knowledge: Whatever that is!)
Tales0fBeauty: (lol)
SwordOfAtrophy: A shake of the head. Naive sheltered girl had noooo clue.
Tesarik One: (Secret Codes/Scripts)

hermitworkaholic: Don't tell me, let me guess. This is a Christian Science
Reading Room, right?
Tesarik One: (also will accept Archeology and Anthropology)
OnlineHost: *** You have ejected hermitworkaholic from this room ***
OnlineHost: hermitworkaholic has left the room.
Gemmed Wings: Hmm looks strange but who knows.. -Her wings would fold back
but stay out as she looked over the pattern.-
Tesarik One: If anyone would like to roll an Insight, go for it.
The Lunar Beacon: "Them's the birds." The Paladin would state eloquently,
summing up the entirety of his knowledge on the matter.

psionic wanderer: He looked over at the symbol, then shook his head. It
certainly wasn't one of those things he was well-versed in. He looked to
Brendan and tilted his head a little. Well, one had flaws for a reason. "Sir
Pearce, I mean no offense by
OnlineHost: Tesarik One rolled 1 20-sided die: 8
Mighty Gar thog: (15)
psionic wanderer: the question, but when was the last time you had a bath?
There's a bit of an aroma emanating from you."
Tesarik One: 17 Insight
Tales0fBeauty: She would look to the others checking her insight "Looks like
a spiders web to me now that i think about it just kinda..."
Mighty Gar thog: Reminds me of a 6 pointed star ...
Tesarik One: She put a gloved hand over her mouth watching Gerry, then
looked down to the pattern, "It... sort of does look like a spider web,
though a spider web would have more connectors, correct?"
Tales0fBeauty: Though she had no clue what they should do next!
Howling Ember: It is a symbol of power, it radiates from the center so if we
want to figure out what it does we should head there.. Hmm let me try
something here.. -Rubbing his neck he would use his magic to create a
doppelganger of himself and
The Lunar Beacon: He just laughed softly, mindful of disturbing the birds as
he looked over to Gerry. He lifted the hem of his cloak, waving his free
hand at his own nose as he did so. "It's the cloak. I bathe daily, I assure
you. Well, when I'm
Howling Ember: then send it out down the path towards where the dead center
would be- (Summon Creature! Doppelganger of Janus!)
The Lunar Beacon: not on a battlefield, that is." He couldn't have lied
even if he wanted to do so.
Tales0fBeauty: (looks like pizza over a doughnut, then again im hungry!)
Howling Ember: (Pet Janus is headed right for the center!)
Tesarik One: It will take about an hour to reach the center.
Tesarik One: ^v^ 1/14/2015 12:22:17 AM ^v^
OnlineHost: The Lunar Beacon has left the room.
Howling Ember: (Well he is following!)
Tales0fBeauty: Are there trees that lead to the center?
RageofNocturne: :: He looked at the drawing and shrugged-- Looks like a
spiders web t' be. --he said and looked around then over the birds -D-
Tesarik One: It's a forest, there's tons of trees! The birds are what is
making the symbol.
psionic wanderer: "Ah, I see." He nodded in response to that. It hadn't
seemed like a lie, so he was happy to take that at face value. At least it
got sorted out. He smiled, then looked to Tally since she'd spoken as well,
taking in what she'd said.
Gemmed Wings: Well let's see where this takes us all. Better to lose a fake
Janus then a real person...
psionic wanderer: And what everyone else was saying as well. He didn't know
enough to contribute!
Tesarik One: Is everyone following the fake Janus into the forest beneath
the symbol the crows are making?
Mighty Gar thog: Did you ask the crows why they copied it? ~to tales~
Tales0fBeauty: Well then she would look to the group "I can port to the
center and see what happens to me, I can leave this with one of you she would
take her cats eye jewel out so i can find my way back if i dissappear!" she
would say hopefully
Tales0fBeauty: before the group split up! cause she didnt want to die!
psionic wanderer: "Don't go running off by yourself, teleporting or not. We
should all stick together." That just made sense! And he could at least
contribute that much.
Tales0fBeauty: She would then follow with the group but she would keep to
the trees as it was a faster and easier way to walk for her.
SwordOfAtrophy: "We should follow the.. other guy who looks like that guy,
but not too close, if it's going to take him time to get where we suspect we
need to be." Her two cents.
Tales0fBeauty: she would look to the dwarf, they arent copying anything they
are drawn to do so by a power..." she was pretty sure she already spoke of
something powerful going on here!
Tesarik One: As soon as any of you step within the "symbol" of crows, you
feel different. There are no other birds, no other animals within this area.
Only the crows, who are also silent.
Howling Ember: Yeah, staying together is best. Stay high in the trees and
keep a look out but we will risk my spell me so no one gets sucked up into a
hellish doom trap.. -d-
Mighty Gar thog: ~Still upon his mule, the mule was leaving no trail as it
followed. In fact, it seemed to be floating~
Howling Ember: (How does Shilling react?)
Tesarik One: (magical creature right?)
Howling Ember: (Yeah Unicorn Pegasus)
Mighty Gar thog: (Yes Fizz stick)
Tesarik One: He's ok. Anyone who has a normal animal, you need to roll a
Willpower.
Tales0fBeauty: She would indeed feel different and she would wonder what was
going on she would observe snowflakes reaction as well since he was now
alighted on her shoulder and no others animals seemed to be there.
OnlineHost: Tales0fBeauty rolled 1 20-sided die: 1
Tales0fBeauty: (fail!)
Tesarik One: Snowflake refuses to enter beneath the crows into the area of
the symbol. She/he can circle above but not come down into the forest.
Howling Ember: -His mighty steed was not scared of no magic Symbols!
Shilling moved to Celest and nudged against her, offering her back to the
pretty dragon lady so she didn't have to walk the whole way if she wanted a
ride- -d-
Tesarik One: So, hurrying, we'll say that it's only about 30 minutes. But,
Janus' clone gets there first, info sent via IM.
Gemmed Wings: - Following close behind the real Janus Celeste would be
looking around rather wary about the sudden strange feeling and she
muttered.- doesn't feel right....Aww Shilling.. - Making her wings vanish Cel
would mount Shilling and pet
Tales0fBeauty: Snowflake would screech as he was on luna's shoulder and she
entered the power circle and he would fly above where the crows were circling
over head, luna would look to him and she would find that most curious she
would speak with
Gemmed Wings: the black unipeggy's mane as they continued-d
Mighty Gar thog: ~The mule travelled without any trouble, just floating
along, as the dwarf held his doomharp~
Tales0fBeauty: him you ok buddy? through her (Beastfriend collar)
RageofNocturne: :: He walked with them into the area the crows drew the
symbol over and then looked around as he carried his sword still in both
hands-D-
SwordOfAtrophy: "He appears to be unnerved by the location, madame."
Tales0fBeauty: She would nod to him "alright whatever this power is the
animals dont like it so maybe it is a dark druid power..." yeah she was
sticking with the druid thing.
Mighty Gar thog: ~muttered about drows and spiders~
Howling Ember: -Well when he got to the center with his doppel ganger, there
was a lot of raised dirt and rocks in the center of the area and when
approached they could see that there was a hole in the center of it, peeking
into the hole would
Howling Ember: show an odd set of stares that went down into the hole.-
Well.. You are up buddy.. -Giving his doppelganger a shove upwards and over
the edge, he let him go rapidly down those stairs while waiting to see if he
just got splatted- -d-
Gemmed Wings: You see anything down there? - Still riding Shilling.-
Tesarik One: The hole in the ground had a lot of rocks around it,like the
earth had burped it up. The hole and set of rough spiralling stairs was big
enough for one person to traverse down at a time. It was pitch dark down in
there too.
Tesarik One: It was a long staircase but even before he got to the bottom,
about 20 feet from the bottom, he'd find spider webs. Very, very thin spider
webs. If he continued into the webs, he'd get all stuck in them (and need to
roll an Escape).
Tales0fBeauty: She would be right be hind the clone or whatever it was as
she was in the trees and porting through them and she would see the circle
and the stairs and how dark it was down there "Well that is most curious,
only room for us to go
Howling Ember: Spiders! Why does it have to be spiders? -A shout from Doppel
Janus as he hit the bottom. Regular Janus would attempt to stop the woman
from going down the whole just yet- Hold on there darling! -Charming smile-
Before you go down
Mighty Gar thog: ~He dismounted, the mule turned into a stick. The harp and
stick went into the pack and out came the ettin club. In went the dwarf~
Howling Ember: there.. Someone kill a crow.
Tales0fBeauty: one by one...." and she would watch the clone go in
curiously. she looked to janus "can you tell what is happening to him when
out of sight?"
Tesarik One: So we have Janus Clone, and Krag going down the hole.
Howling Ember: (Clone Janus)
Howling Ember: (Regular Janus is still up top)
Tales0fBeauty: Oh she hadnt planned on going anywhere just yet! after all
she wanted the groups input first! She would look to janus "I love nature to
much to just kill a crow..."
Howling Ember: (Oh right you said that lol)
SwordOfAtrophy: "Maybe.. we simply need to disrupt their pattern." She
couldn't kill one without some kind of weapon, but maybe she could bean one
with a rock and knock it down.
RageofNocturne: :: Looking at the hole he stepped over and looked down into
it and then hearing Janus he looked at the crows and shrugged if you insist.
--he said and shifted into his dragon form and turned his head at a lone of
crows and released
RageofNocturne: his sonic breath at them-D-
Howling Ember: Well break it from the symbol if you do not want to kill it.
Howling Ember: We need to see if this hole poofs when they break line.
Tesarik One: They could kill the crows, they were just crows. More would
show up at some point.
Tales0fBeauty: Flaw: love of nature!
psionic wanderer: He looked at the hole. He wasn't sure if he really wanted
to go underground, he wouldn't be able to see too terribly well and they had
no idea what was down there..and then the dwarf just started going on down.
He blinked when sonic
Gemmed Wings: Oh you want to kill a crow? - She would lick her lips and
then..sigh as the other dragon would have his fun and then look back to the
hole- Anything?
Tesarik One: The crows dying did nothing to what they saw. It was merely a
symptom of what was going on, the crows that is. More crows would show up
pulled to the lines.
Mighty Gar thog: ~Said to the clone~ Go to the websand call out. Ask
ifanyone is here.
Tales0fBeauty: She would shake her head as they were so willing to end the
innocent life of the poor crows.
psionic wanderer: breath went a-crazy and looked to the one ..killing crows
for no good reason. "...what in the world is the matter with...well, most of
you? The crows weren't exactly hurting anything." And, as it seemed, it did
nothing!
Tales0fBeauty: "satisfied, nothing you just killed an innocent creature for
no reason." she didnt say it meanly or even angrily just matter of factly.
Howling Ember: Seems the crows no longer have an effect on things, whatever
spell is going on is done. -A rub of his head and he sighed some- If people
are going to be all hippy about this, go home. We are not here to worry about
animals and
Gemmed Wings: It's a crow.. - A roll of her eyes as the poor wittle animal
protesters came out in force.- Eat or be eaten my dears it's the way of the
world.. Save your cries of poor critter for your unborn babies..
RageofNocturne: :: Well he killed some and shifted back to human form and
looked to the ranger and shrugged-- Worth a shot now wasnt it. Nothin
ventured nothing gained lass.-D-
Howling Ember: every life being special. If killing crows stops us from
getting killed..fuck the crows. -Down in the hole, Clone Janus would do as
requested and run into the webs calling out- ANYONE IN HERE? HEEEELP
OnlineHost: Howling Ember rolled 1 20-sided die: 8
Howling Ember: (12 Escape check)
Tales0fBeauty: She looked to janus and shook her head to him "no the spell
is compelling them to do what they do, something down there" she pointed
where his clone had gone "is very powerful we need to find out what it
is...."
Tesarik One: Clone's caught up in the webs.
Howling Ember: Least I am one good looking meal.
Tesarik One: Can the clone see in the dark?
Howling Ember: (Nope)
psionic wanderer: "I hate to point out that it didn't do anything at all, so
your arguement does not really hold much water." He shook his head a little,
then looked to Tally. "Is it an effect that I have on people, that the
bloodthirsty maniacs only
psionic wanderer: come out when I am around, or are they always like this
around here?"
Tales0fBeauty: She would look to janus and took her cats eye jewel out of
its crown "I can throw this down there!"
SwordOfAtrophy: "Or someone can just bring him a light..."
Tales0fBeauty: "i can use clarvyouance thorugh it and see things through it
when i do!"
Gemmed Wings: - Hoping off Shilling Celeste would make her way over and
peer down the hole as she then looked back at the whinny little shit.-
Seriously if you are going to bitch and cry over a crow haul your ass back
to the tavern and see if
Howling Ember: Yes it did nothing, but what if it had. It was just a few
crows. That inn you go home to after missions likely ruined the lives of more
animals just being put up..
Tesarik One: He does not see the figure approach him then, so I won't
describe it yet! But, he feels a slam into his body, and then the clone is
covered wtih all manner of small spiders, biting him.
Gemmed Wings: there's a wetnurse on staff.. It was a crow get over it and
grow some balls boy.
Tales0fBeauty: And she would go and do just that! She would toss that (cats
eye jewel) down the hole and watched as it rolled down the steps!
Howling Ember: NIGHTMARES INCOMING!!! -The clone screamed and writhed as he
was getting eaten by spiders- Someone kill these lives! AHHH! OOOH! Not
there! Ow.. whoa.. I kinda like.. OW! NOOOO
Mighty Gar thog: (The dwarf sees nothing?)
Tesarik One: She frowned, as the team resorted to nastiness just because
some folks were nature lovers. She adjusted her hat and coughed a bit, "Let
us focus on the task."
Tesarik One: I asked if anyone down there had darksight, you did not say a
word.
Howling Ember: Hmm...Anyone else wanna go down there? Someone want to try
peace and loving it to surrendering? -d-
Mighty Gar thog: (I did earlier!)
Gemmed Wings: Oh pretty stone and good idea.. . - She was only nasty cause
some people wanted to keep whining about animals.-d
Tales0fBeauty: She would then notice that there were many footsteps being
all ranger like and what not "this is where they all have gone i think i can
see all the footsteps. And then she would wonder what her cats eye jewel
would reveal to her.
Tesarik One: Then you see humanoid figures, wrapped in spider webs, with
little spiders of all sorts and colors crawling around them, coming out of
the nose and ears and mouth. They shamble sorta like zombies. One of these
just slammed into the
Tesarik One: clone.
Tales0fBeauty: The stone grants the seer darkvision to where it is, though
luan has it)
Tales0fBeauty: luna*
Tesarik One: The cat's eye jewel sees spider webs.
Tales0fBeauty: (using the Clarvyiance on the stone, which is likely at the
bottom now)
Tesarik One: it's all caught up in the webs now.
Tales0fBeauty: or not, but still using that skill)
psionic wanderer: "I'm here for the same reason you jackasses are, and I do
not recall needless killing being one of those reasons, that is all I'm
saying." He shook his head, then looked to Tally again. "Do you have a torch
or something to that
Mighty Gar thog: We HAVE SPIDERS HERE AND COCOONED STUMBLING ZOMBIES...
Tales0fBeauty: (god i cant spell tonight)
Tesarik One: Let me know in IM what you are wanting to know.
psionic wanderer: effect?" He had a hand free whilst fighting, so it
wouldn't be a burden to hold one, but he apparently didn't have any in his
pack.
SwordOfAtrophy: "Cocooned zombies?... That might be our missing party...
unfortunately." Some spiders often used corpses to breed their young.
Tesarik One: "No, I don't." Apparently she didn't either.
Gemmed Wings: Jackass.. - She rose up and looked at him and smirked.- How
about I just burn this enture foresrt to the ground with your sorry ass in
it.. One damn crow isn't the end of the world or makes anyone less of a good
person and what if
Mighty Gar thog: ~Vlub went in the pack., out came a torch and tinder box as
the torch was lit~
Howling Ember: I suggest we set fire to it all and call it good. -A sigh and
he rubbed his head- But of course we have to check for survivors. -d-
Gemmed Wings: it had brought everyone back safe and sound and wonderful
you'd be kissing his ass for killing that crow..
RageofNocturne: :: He looked to the one asking about torches and went into
his bag and pulled out one-- Here boy-o. --he said and tossed it to him-D-
Tales0fBeauty: She would look to the others "well taht is where we need to
go, all 12 of them went down there and are caught in the webbing...."
Tesarik One: "Can you all stop the arguing? You can argue about it when we
get home," she said softly.
Gemmed Wings: But back to the issue at hand.. I'm not sure fire will help
depending on what kind of spiders they are...
Tales0fBeauty: she would say as that is what she gleaned from her cats eye
jewel as she saw the vision of them all doing so in her mind.
SwordOfAtrophy: "Fire might not even solve the problem.. this is stone, it
won't go up like a house or a barn."
Mighty Gar thog: ~He started lighting the webs on fire~
Tesarik One: Krag, what are you doing? Are you going down to the bottom?
Tales0fBeauty: "no if they are caught in the webbing they will all be set on
fire were here to save them"
Tesarik One: Oddly, the webs, which aren't quite normal spider webs, are
immune to fire. it does NOTHING.
Mighty Gar thog: (Yes)
Tesarik One: Then roll an Escape as you get caught in the webbing
everywhere.
psionic wanderer: "Then I would not be the one acting directly against the
rescue mission we are here for. Why did you volunteer for it anyway?" It
really was a curiosity. And well..apparently Krag was down at the bottom with
the only light source
psionic wanderer: he'd seen since Brendan vanished!
Howling Ember: Fire is a metaphor for.. mass genocide of a horrible horrible
arachnid species. -A grin, yeah he was a bit of a psyho after watching masses
of his people burn in a solar flare- -d-
Mighty Gar thog: WEBS ARE RESISTANT TO FLAMES ~he called up~
Tesarik One: "I said, stop," she glanced to Gerry. "You are just lighting
the fire beneath her to continue to be ugly. So everyone stop, please.
Focus."
OnlineHost: Mighty Gar thog rolled 1 20-sided die: 8
Howling Ember: (Knowledge: Monster Lore?)
Tales0fBeauty: She would shake her head looking to the group "i can shift
and try to slice through the webbing with my claws they are naturally
frosted/cold, mabye ice can break the webbing if its immune to fire."
SwordOfAtrophy: "If we need to go down there, then down we shall." Yes, the
girl was just going to walk in, following the light of the dwarfs torch.
Tesarik One: Go for it. Planes also works.
Howling Ember: (At this point, Clone Janus is likely dead and poofed)
Tesarik One: Ok.
Mighty Gar thog: (+12 Strength. if that helps = 20)
OnlineHost: Howling Ember rolled 1 20-sided die: 1
Howling Ember: (HE KNOWS NOTHING!!)
Tesarik One: So we have Krag at the bottom, the webs do not hold him. And
Jane moving down.
Tales0fBeauty: (wow that is the like the 5th one of those tonight!)
SwordOfAtrophy: (that is the third 1 on a check today)
Tales0fBeauty: She would move quickly and stopped jane "let me go first
love."
Gemmed Wings: - A snort and she would turn back to the issue at hand and
nodded the ranger.- If it works then I can help more with that.. -Reaching
into her bag of holding she would pull out her gloves that were covered in
ice and frost.-d
Howling Ember: (pretty sure ponies wont make it down those stairs. -sob-)
SwordOfAtrophy: "No, it is my job to secure the way.. just stay close."
psionic wanderer: Oh apparently Lorcan had thrown a torch to him! Well he'd
get a nod of thanks, and then the torch got lit and he'd start heading on
down the stairs, drawing his rapier in his right hand, torch in the left.
Tesarik One: Nah probably not.
Tales0fBeauty: She would shift to wolven form being sure to make sure she
shifted in away her amour would still fit her and stay on! she would then
growl lowly as she would make her way using her claws which her inately
frosted (Luanr born) and
SwordOfAtrophy: (as long as they arent little ponys)
Tales0fBeauty: she would use them to try to break through the webbing.
Mighty Gar thog: ~He tried to make his way to any unmoving cocoons~
Tesarik One: Frost/cold does nothing to the webs.
Howling Ember: (If it is only big enough for 1 person then a horse is too
big even a pony)
Tales0fBeauty: what about her claws slicing through them?
Tesarik One: Claws slice through well enough.
Tales0fBeauty: Then she would go down her darkvision letting her see where
she was going and anything else taht was down there along the way!
Tesarik One: Y'all hold a moment and let me tell you a setting.
Tales0fBeauty: Her claws slicing through the webbing as she went.
Tesarik One: The winding stairs go down about 100 feet to the bottom of a
massive cavern. The roots of all the trees above can be seen hanging free
from the rooftop which is about 80 feet up. It's large, but nearly every
place in the big cavern
Tesarik One: has those odd webs across it. Those that can see in the dark,
or using torches and the like, see the spider webs glimmer oddly almost as if
they were pure stark white. There are four active humanoids in the area, all
four are
Tesarik One: covered in webbing, shamble like zombies, and have small
spiders crawling all over them, in and out of their bodies. A few have
longswords, and you can see leather armor on them beneath the webbing.
Tesarik One: Anyone who comes down into the cavern needs to first roll an
Escape to get fre eof the clinging webs on the stairway.
OnlineHost: Howling Ember has left the room.
Tesarik One: If you are using a knife/claws/blade or osme way to come
through, then no roll is needed.

Tesarik One: DC15 for the Escape.
Tales0fBeauty: She would continue to use her claws to slice through the
webbing seeing the four creatures down there she would pause, she would be
sure to retrieve her cats eye jewel on the way down as well! and she would
place it back in its
Tales0fBeauty: crown.

her way down the stairs behind the others the faint light from the torchs

Mighty Gar thog: ~The dwarf had a torch in one hand and cut the webs with
the claws built into the demon armour, to clear a path for the others~
psionic wanderer: Well he'd certainly be using his rapier to get the webs
out of his way. They did look odd. Possibly unlike spider webs he'd seen
before, but that would not be difficult, he hadn't seen a huge amount of
spider webs in his day anyway.
Gemmed Wings: crystal scales as she let the others clear the way.-d
Tesarik One: Talasyn had no knife or anything of the sort, so she shifted
into snow leopard form at the top of the stairs (Shapeshifting), and then
down she went following Gerry, using her claws to slice the webbing away.
SwordOfAtrophy: A sword of her size would be dangerous to start swinging
willy nilly in closed quarters, so she would power her way through with her
little girly muscles.
Mighty Gar thog: ~Of coyrse, being short, they still had to cut the higher
parts brehind him~
Tesarik One: Krag, being he was down there before the others, and trying to
move around got the next attack. One of the webbed creatures with a longsword
came for him, slashing across his body.
Howling Ember: -He followed on down into the caverns with them all, with a
kiss to Shilling's muzzle before he went. When he was down in the dark with
them all, he took a moment to examine things in the area and frowned a bit-

and used her claws to get further down into the area so she could move closer
to Gerry. That thing looked menacing and it kinda scared her a bit!
Howling Ember: It is a Corpespinner, an extra planar magical creature.. it
shifts back and forth and normally only kills to feed its young, it is not an
evil beast and can likely be reasoned with. The reason it is still here and
not feeding in the
Howling Ember: the astral plane with its young is likely due to that symbol
drawing it and trapping it here. More then likely the others died trying to
kill it and well it has to eat. If we attack it we will likely die so.. if
there is anyone here

find a way to send it back so no one dies and we can get the bodies out of

and how to remove the magic? ~It could not be as simple as rubbing it away~

could speak many tongues, but not that one. Nor did she have Polylingual.

scales against his leg some.- Smart man.. Sadly I don't think I speak what it

psionic wanderer: Well...if it was creeping towards them, he'd move right
out in front and sheath his sword as he did, to appear a bit less
threatening. "Hello..eh...do you have a name?" He did speak some arachnian!
It was far from a commonly used
psionic wanderer: language for him, but well..Polylingual had to come in
handy ever now and then.
SwordOfAtrophy: Jane made a motion of sheathing her blade, noticably, and
holding her hands out to indicate she was not a threat. Hopefully, one less
weapon drawn would give an indication of peaceful intent.

example "everyone put your weapons away maybe then it wont feel threatened!"

from it's large mouth as white eyes settled on Gerry, "Come forward," it said
in Arachnia.

it's name, but it did want him to come closer still!
psionic wanderer: Well he walked forward a few steps whilst offering up a
prayer to Coleus and Daleus unde rhis breath. "I am called Gerald. It's an
honor to meet you, Vessnelshvarss. I understand you are a bit stuck here?"
Howling Ember: -Well they would figure this out so he would give Cel a
little response rub and then shuffled his way behind Gerry so he could feed
him some lines and give the spide a big flashy smile- -d-
Tesarik One: "Gerrrald. Yes. Pulled here on accident, felt a power surge.
Now my children are without me and I hunger."
psionic wanderer: He undoubtedly had a better smile to flash than Janus, but
he didn't have as much skill with words, either, so well..he could use the
help there! "My companions and I have interest in helping you to get back to
your children. If you
psionic wanderer: do not mind, I should like to act as an interpreter for
Janus, here." Said with a gesture to the one behind him. "He knows more about
these things than I do, but I'm afraid does not speak your language."
Mighty Gar thog: I still say, ask if it knows how to erase the magic holding
it.
Tesarik One: "Do so then. I will tell you what I know."
psionic wanderer: Well then! Interpret he would, as accurately as he was
able to. Having three people talking to him at once was not helpful however!
Mighty Gar thog: (accidentally hit underline)
Howling Ember: Excellent! First off, Lady Vessnelshvarss.. It is an honor to
be in the presence of such a great and beautiful creature such as yourself.
You have every bit of our respect, and we do so humbly apologize for the
violence our kind has
Howling Ember: brought due to this error. If you might forgive us and stave
your hunger for but a few moments, I would very much like you to show me to
the source of the power drawing you here. I am positive we can fix things
here and send you
Howling Ember: packing on home to your wee babies before they even wake from
their nap and notice you are gone. I admit, I would love to spend time
learning everything I could from someone as glorious as you.. but I imagine
you miss your home and
Howling Ember: desperately need the help of us lesser beings.. -A bow and he
extended his hand to press to one of her legs gently- A sign of cooperation
and friendship of mighty mother.. -d-

Mighty Gar thog: ~The dwarf just shook his head~
Howling Ember: (+41!!)
psionic wanderer: Well, he didn't really hear anything he found too
objectionable in there. This was why he'd said he'd interpret rather than
imply the words came from him! (brb)
Howling Ember: (Oops)

OnlineHost: RageofNocturne has entered the room.
Tesarik One: She twitched a bit as he touched her big leg, but then
skittered backwards on her feet and turned a bit, using one leg to point
towards the hole she'd come out of, "If you .. would assist. Down beneath
this room, there is a pool of
Tesarik One: energy, which pulled me here. It is broken but..." she wiggled
her front legs, and shook her spidery head, "I am unable to repair. If you
wish to climb atop me, I will take you down."
Tesarik One: (Whoever trusts the spider and wishes to be taken down through
the hole, you can climb up her pretty easy with her help. Otherwise you can
stay here with the corpsespun, or climb your way down yourself)
Howling Ember: (Aww yea! Spider Riding!)
Mighty Gar thog: ~once that offer was translated, the dwarf would mount up~
Howling Ember: My thanks, Mother Vess. -A smile as he moved to climb up onto
her back and get a good seat, hey at least she wasn't eating them yet. Who
knows, maybe some of these not super evil monsters could become allies for
them in the future-
Howling Ember: -d-
SwordOfAtrophy: She didn't quite trust the spider, well she didn't quite
trust anyone save for the moon fey next to her but that was another story,
but as a sign of good faith, she'd climb aboard. If it didn't seem dangerous
to touch or ride the
Tesarik One: If Gerry got on the spider, the snow leopard would get on her
as well, trying not to dig her claws into the creature though realizing it
was a carapace, she dug in a bit to hold on.
Tales0fBeauty: She would climb up the spider as she would hear the
translation offered!
SwordOfAtrophy: spider, she would offer her hand to Luna.
Gemmed Wings: -Celeste would flap her wings and take to the air to fly
along side Janus as he sat on the spider mother.-d
RageofNocturne: :: He shrugged and then moved returning his sword onto back
then shifted to the size of fae dragon and would fly down himself-D-
Tesarik One: Gonna assume Gerry climbed on too, I think he's afk. So, as
those that mounted atop her were on, she skittered towards the hole again,
and they'd have to hold onb ecause she began to climb the webbing she'd made
sideways. Now as you
Tesarik One: all pass through the hole in the floor, you are instantly aware
that you are no longer in a natural cave. It is a finely tooled, and
pillared circular room, quite large though. There are six huge alcoves
visible around the room
psionic wanderer: Sure, yep. He did.
Tesarik One: (corresponding to the directions of the "lines" of the symbol
it seems!) and in the very center there is a white marble circular area that
has what looks to be a
Tesarik One: broken marble arch in the middle. Energy of all colors is
spilling from the broken part of the arch, and is being sapped towards the
six alcoves. There is something in the alcoves but you aren't close enough to
see it. She brings
Tesarik One: you all down in front of the broken arch, and points one leg to
the massive structure, "I was pulled through that, but cannot go back," said
to Gerry.
Tesarik One: The corpsespun follow slowly behind, staying near the hole,
hanging onto the webbing.
Mighty Gar thog: ~The dwarf was curious (without the flaw) so moved closer
to see what was within the alcobes~
Mighty Gar thog: alcoves
Tesarik One: Runes were carved into the polished marble, Runin.
Mighty Gar thog: *I swear this adventure was made for my shinies char)
SwordOfAtrophy: She slipped down off the spider, and would take a look
around, maybe the broken pieces of the arch were there, and could be rigged
in some way to at least allow passage home.
Gemmed Wings: -Once she was down there with the others Celeste would fly up
and look over the broken arch as she tilted her head some and pondered some.-
Ask her if this was broken when she got here..
Howling Ember: Such a gorgeous creature, and man what a place.. -When they
were safely down in that new area, he gave the spider a pet and slid off her,
looking across the cavern and all the flowing energy- (Knowledge
Planes/planar!)
Tesarik One: She leaped off the back of the spider and headed over towards
the alcoves as well, peering up at it. Oh, she spoke RUNIN! She shifted
quickly to her human form and called out to them, "I can read this, it's in
Runin." She leaned

Tesarik One: ~*~ Howling Ember scored 0 poynts damage ~*~forward, to try an
Tesarik One: d make it out.
Howling Ember: (I hate the dice roller lol 20)
Tales0fBeauty: She would see the alcoves and she would look to see what she
could see there as well she had her dark vision after all if it was needed
here.
Tesarik One: There was a glow from the energy.
Tesarik One: Anyone else read Runin?
OnlineHost: Howling Ember has left the room.
OnlineHost: Howling Ember has entered the room.
Tesarik One: Those who can read the Runin will find that in each alcove are
symbols that mean "energy" and "power" and basically "ley lines run here".
Howling Ember: (Me hate aol!)
psionic wanderer: He followed Tally when she hopped off, and then smiled. At
least she could read it! Made no sense at all to him, he just spoke plenty of
languages. Reading and writing was a different beast altogether.
Tesarik One: "It's marking ley lines... lines on Arith that flow with
power."
Gemmed Wings: So basically the path was broken and it only worked to bring
her through..
SwordOfAtrophy: "I assume the crows were drawn to that power, also."
Howling Ember: Well then, with all this extraplanar energy and ley lines..
seems we got us a busted portal. Anyone have a hammer and some wood and know
how to fix these things? -d-
Mighty Gar thog: ~blinked at that~ I heard a story about those once....
Tesarik One: To stack the marble back into the shape of the arch, will take
STR checks.
Gemmed Wings: I have an idea...
Tesarik One: (We are a bit over 3 hours, if anyone wishes or needs to go,
feel free)
Mighty Gar thog: I can fix it. ~The swarf tried to hoist a piece up~

Tesarik One: She paused and glanced to Celeste, smiling a bit, "What is your
idea?"
SwordOfAtrophy: Jane would give her hand a go at it, as well.

Tales0fBeauty: +17 (+5 atheltics, +12 QCK- agile athlete)= 34
Gemmed Wings: home. I'm not sure if it would hold much longer then that depending on the energy..
Howling Ember: Well, crystal tends to be a rather good conduit for magical energy, maybe once we get the pieces together you can seal it over with your crystal to make it stronger... like a big crystal glue!
Mighty Gar thog: I think we should take the last piece down, after the spider leaves.
Mighty Gar thog: (Any pieces still left?)
Howling Ember: What? Why not use the portal. Everyone should see the other realms at least once. You can vacation on the shores of a sun spot!
Mighty Gar thog: Put it up when we wish to use it.
Howling Ember: (Pam got kicked)
Gemmed Wings: ( Pam's aol crashed.)
Tales0fBeauty: (just hold till she gets back guys)



Tesarik One: Ok....so 4 big marble pieces. Krag got the first and second piece up. Jane and Gerry got the third piece.
Tesarik One: And Luna got the last piece in.
Gemmed Wings: -Once the pieces were all in place Celeste would take a deep breath and carefully aim it before she let out a breath of crystal which she used to coat the arch to help it stay all together and work for them-
Mighty Gar thog: ~Was still thinking they failed to rescue the patrols~

Tesarik One: Ok so anyway, the portal arch is as rebuilt as they could do it. There was energy leaking out as they fixed it. Who all actually touched the stones of the portal?
Tesarik One: Krag, Luna, Gerry, Jane, ?
psionic wanderer: Yep.
Mighty Gar thog: (Yes)
Gemmed Wings: ( sent you the post of Cel helping.)

Gemmed Wings: ( tyall!)
Tesarik One: I will tell you what that means in a moment. So, arch fixed, covered in crystal, the energy stops leaking into our world and with much thanks to them, the Corpsespinner moves to the portal, and is sucked through back to her nest.
Tesarik One: The webbing remains, as do the corpsespun. You all will need to destroy them, but we won't use dice, just rp out slicing and dicing as you head out. You can climb your way back to the top, where Celeste with her Treasure Scent notes
Tesarik One: there are things of value in the webbing - that belonged to the 12. But, remember, I said there were only 11 spirits. A search finds one person covered in webbing, barely alive.
Mighty Gar thog: (has treasure scent too)
Tesarik One: Well you know there's things of value that fell off the Patrol members in the webbing too.
Howling Ember: Hey we saved one!
Mighty Gar thog: ~The dwarf would try to collect the webbing. A crazed crafter, yes indeedy~
Tesarik One: And because of stupid aol, I'm gonna officially end the quest now, but y'all are welcome to rp getting out and destroying the undead.
Mighty Gar thog: Healer! We need a healer on this one!
Howling Ember: (Someone tell my wife to order that pizza!-tummy rumbles-)
SwordOfAtrophy: (at midnight?)
Howling Ember: (Open all night baby)
Tales0fBeauty: She would look around and with her scent she could smell something alive barely and she woould go and she carefully claw it out of the webbing and she would use her (14 heal others) on the poor soul as she held them "you will be ok"
SwordOfAtrophy: (....-jelly-)
Howling Ember: -He would blow a kiss and send 14 healing points the way of the survivor-
Tesarik One: ^v^ 1/14/2015 3:08:21 AM ^v^
Howling Ember: (Pizza, leftover bday cake, Ice cream.. mmm)
SwordOfAtrophy: Jane went to work, putting the poor souls who's been turned into spider minivans down and out, trying to gather up what remained for identification and burial.
