Sol

Drufle (GM)

Horanoven A.

Drufle (GM)
different music but still, music
So this will be, what, session 5?

Horanoven A.
darksouls music?

Golurk
are those footsteps

Drufle (GM)
This actually isn't dark souls music, this is generic cathedral music I found.

Horanoven A.
:(

Drufle (GM)
I was using a bunch of ambients that weren't moved to fanburst.
And aren't downloadable.
So anyway, welcome back.
Last time, Roy almost died.
Also, books.

Horanoven A.
good to be back
also who the hell puts a poison trap in a BOOK
in a LIBRARY

Golurk
oh right theres poison

Drufle (GM)
Random encounter tables.

Roy's Summon
cough

Horanoven A.
someone fire the RE tables

Roy
i mean

Drufle (GM)
Oh hey, it's that.

R�senfeld was busy being high on some crazy dope so he remembers nothing

Drufle (GM)
So here we are, currently in the library of the Inquisition.

Drumun
I do not remember how our last conversation ended

Drufle (GM)
I'll go look.

R�senfeld
i probably should've read the threeums....???

Drumun
oh god I have 5 insanity
I'm not okay with this

R�senfeld
AHAHAHA what

Drufle (GM)
Congratulations.

Roy
someones talking

Drufle (GM)
You guys were just talking about the books you found.
The last one was a treatise on fairies.

Roy
in the ambient music

Drufle (GM)
Yeah, they're fine.

Drumun
"Who puts a poison trap inna book in a library?"

Drufle (GM)
Don't worry about them.

Roy
i am Creeped out

Drumun
it is spooky

Drufle (GM)
Of all the music I could play, this is the creepy one.
So, what will the party do now?

Roy
"[cough cough] I need to rest."

Drumun
right, need to heal
poison damage

Drufle (GM)
Retreat?

Drumun
probably the best idea right now

R�senfeld
i will concur as i have no idea what is left from right

Drufle (GM)
Out we go then.

Drumun
we're takin this Door with us

R�senfeld
it has magnetically attached to the HK

Drufle (GM)
I can't move this door...

Drumun
really?

Drufle (GM)
There.

Drumun
oh there we go
did you...have to select multiple pogs to move it?

Drufle (GM)
Yes.

Drumun
pfffft

Drufle (GM)
So everyone can heal their rate, we'll take a nice nap.

Drumun
being a dwerf I resist poison
so I wasn't hurt

Drufle (GM)
Ruse was, he's up to 16/17 now.

Drumun
how's Roy?

(From R�senfeld)
.

Drumun
she's the one that nearly died

Drufle (GM)
Well, none of you have any damage logged on your sheets.

(From R�senfeld)
Woops. Was ust gonna say before next session lemme know if you need some music for things, i can find you very appropriate game ost music on youtube

Roy
i have.. 3 on the red circle
i guess thats damage?

Drumun
ye

(From R�senfeld)
you can literally just say "I need creepy town music" and i'll find something

(From R�senfeld)
assuming youtube works.......

(To Sol)
Righto.

Drufle (GM)
Alright, heal your rate then.

(From R�senfeld)
anyway, carry on.

Drufle (GM)
Which I think is 3 for Roy anway.
anyway*

R�senfeld
we are.. resting?

Drumun
yeah

R�senfeld
can i game that and cast minor heals?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah, actually.
Since we're going to the next day anyway.

R�senfeld
goodo. that should be enough to give everyone full hp, yes?

Drufle (GM)
Between two castings of minor healing and your shared recovery, I would imagine so.

R�senfeld
capital.

Drufle (GM)
So, back unto the breach!

Drumun
breach?
uh oh

Drufle (GM)
The day passes, the city still sucks.

R�senfeld
Plumbing is being chucked out of windos.

Drufle (GM)
Some of the rioting has died down a bit, but looting is still occurring.

Roy
like what we just did

Drufle (GM)
Pretty much.

Drumun
"Ah ain't sure ah'm okay with how this is turnin out"

Roy
i think we havent checked out the top right room?

Drufle (GM)
You did.
You only didn't check uh.
The two middle rooms
to the left and right.

Drumun
middle rooms had noises

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.

R�senfeld
"You mean us having to go against the church and all that?"

Drufle (GM)
Hence why you didn't touch them.

Drumun
"not so much tath"
"ah'm more concerned about tha city itself"
"lotta people out there"
"were...out there"

R�senfeld
"In either case, The New God will guide us through, as he has thus far. Worry not, my good dwarf."

Drumun
"Ah'll stop worryin when there's nothin to worry about"

R�senfeld
did you miss my fanatical rambling

Drufle (GM)
In any case, the party returns to the great doors of the grand cathedral.

Roy
"These giant doors again."

Drufle (GM)
We re-enter the building?

Roy
"I hope there arent any more swords behind it."

Drumun
I listen first

R�senfeld
yeah maybe mr sneaky mcperception can scope things out?

Drufle (GM)
The doors are ajar.

Drumun
after yesterday..taking no chances

R�senfeld
i don't know what happened at all

Drumun
I'll roll perception first

R�senfeld
so i have no idea what to expect either

Drufle (GM)
Things went... poorly.

Drumun
rolling 1d20 + 0 + 0d6k1( 16 )+0+() = 16

Drufle (GM)
We went into the cathedral.
There was a veteran inquisitor and some acolytes.

Drumun
I put my ear near the door

Drufle (GM)
Fighting happened, Roy almost died.
Party retreated, healed up.

R�senfeld
it's ajar, man, just have a butcher's

Drufle (GM)
Re-entered, looted all the rooms on the first floor that didnt have noises from them.

Drumun
I dont want to be seen

Drufle (GM)
The grand hall is silent.

Drumun
alright
I step inside then

R�senfeld
ok, well, i'm gona have look
or not

Drumun
what roll is stealth

Drufle (GM)
There's still the blood from that battle you guys had.

R�senfeld
agility?

Drufle (GM)
Agility.
You get a boon what with the boots.

Drumun
rolling 1d20 + 0 + 1d6k1( 13 )+0+( 2 ) = 15

Drufle (GM)
Dwarf is very stealthy now.

Drumun
super sneaky
sneak sneak sneak

Drufle (GM)
ZOOM

R�senfeld
yes you wouldn't expect a short, dense life form to move so sneakily

Drumun
I listen in on this door
rolling 1d20 + 0 + 0d6k1 ( 2 )+0+() = 2

Roy
where did her go

Drumun
okay nvm

Roy
he

Drufle (GM)
The door sounds like wood.

Drumun
damn

R�senfeld
:o
it's a new discovery!

Drufle (GM)
He's up by the middle left room.

R�senfeld
"Shall we?"

Drumun
whispers "Ah don't hear anythin"
feel free to do perception yourself

R�senfeld
is that like a table at the end

Drumun
stairs

Drufle (GM)
That is a spiral staircase.
You are welcome for the glorious drawing.

R�senfeld
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 0d6k1( 16 )+2+() = 18
sending out generic feelers
ears, eyes, etc

Drufle (GM)
What, in this room?

R�senfeld
yeah
just in case

Drufle (GM)
Everything is eerily still.

R�senfeld
can't ever be too safe
"This place is a bit too quiet."

Drufle (GM)
Blood still stains the floor where the acolytes and veteran were killed.
The bodies, however, are gone.

Drumun
"Whoever was in those rooms before ain't here anymore"

R�senfeld
"And I seem to recall we left some.. baggage? here before.

Drumun
"Aye, they ain't here either"
lets do something stupid

Drufle (GM)
Yeah, Roy's boisterous attitude.

Drumun
I'll try to smell around

R�senfeld
"Never a good thing, when the dead go a-wandering."

Drumun
can I do that?

Drufle (GM)
What and where are you smelling?

Drumun
the blood, I want to try and track it

Drufle (GM)
Ah, ok.

Roy
"Does anyone smell any large carnivores?"

Drumun
make sure it actually left

Drufle (GM)
Roll me some perception.

Drumun
do I get a boon for pigness?

Drufle (GM)
Sure, why not.

R�senfeld
:o is roy Aware?

Drumun
"Dis might look a bit wierd"
"but its a dwarf thing"
rolling 1d20 + 0 + 1d6k1 ( 16 )+0+( 5 ) = 21

Drufle (GM)
Oh dear.

Drumun sniffs around, trying to follow the scent

R�senfeld
"A race of many skills, it would seem."

Roy
"That's undignified."

R�senfeld
"Remind me to hire a dwarf mercenary the next time I decide to rebel against everything I ever knew in the name of my God."

Drufle (GM)
The scent of blood trails up the staircase.

Drumun
"We killed a bunch o men and ye nearly died, this is hardly more undigified"

R�senfeld
this is a door next to me, yes?

Drufle (GM)
Yes.
You guys already searched that room previously.

Drumun
snort "The trail goes upstairs"

R�senfeld
and the ones with purple circles are ones we haven't?

Drumun
they had people last time

Drufle (GM)
Yes.

Drumun
"That ain't where ye put dead bodies"

R�senfeld
can I peek through this door without opening it fully, covertly?

Drufle (GM)
Roll agi.

R�senfeld
rolling 1d20 + 0 + 0d6k1( 2 )+0+() = 2
nope

Drumun
bang

Drufle (GM)
Ruse kicks down the door.

R�senfeld
"Woops."

Drumun jumps up, startled

R�senfeld
"uh."
I look through

Drumun
"What're ye doin?"

R�senfeld
"Er, nothing, i just tripped a little bit, that's all."

Drumun peeks around the corner

Roy
"On.. the. Door?"

R�senfeld
"Would you kindly see if this room is trapped for me?

Drumun
"Ello?"

Drufle (GM)
Two dead acolytes lie in the corner; a large statue looms in the north of the room.

Drumun
dead?
"Oh..."

Drufle (GM)
Racks of armor line the east wall.

R�senfeld
are they the corpses?

Drumun
"that ain't right"
rolling 1d20 + 0 + 0d6k1 ( 10 )+0+() = 10
"They look dead"
that's about all I can tell

R�senfeld
"Lord give me strength.." for the night is dark and full of terrors
plop
anything?

Drufle (GM)
A harsh iron scent, that's pretty much what you get.
You're pretty used to the smell of blood at this point.

R�senfeld sniffs and wrinkles his nose

Roy
sooo.. what else is in here

Drumun
"These cann't be tha ones we fought"

R�senfeld
"I can smell iron."

Roy
rolling 1d20 + 3 + 0d6k1( 17 )+3+() = 20

Drufle (GM)
Two dead acolytes, a big ol' statue, and a crapton of armor on the east wall, as I stated.
Although with that roll, you do find a bag in one of the armor sets.
The bag contains a few coins, 3 gc 5 ss in total.

Roy
"Ooh, what's over here."

R�senfeld
who's keeping tab?

Drumun
if I were a smarter character I'd try and find out how these guys died

R�senfeld
hint taken.
I'll go investigate the corpses, shall I?

Drufle (GM)
Go ahead.

Drumun
I'm nearby incase something happens

R�senfeld
er, where are they?

Drufle (GM)
The statue that Drumun is staring at is of a large, imposing man holding a greatshield and a sword.

Drumun
oh there's the statue
I couldn't see them

R�senfeld
i investigate this one for cause of deth
megadeth

Drufle (GM)
Roll... Int.
Remember your professions, by the way.

R�senfeld
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 0d6k1( 13 )+2+() = 15

Drufle (GM)
If you'd think your professions would help on a roll, make note of that.

R�senfeld
I'm not a doctor, unfortunately

Drufle (GM)
This acolyte was run through by a rather large bladed weapon.
According to the rather linear slash in his gut.

Roy
ptsd intensifies

Drumun
oh dear

R�senfeld
"This man was stabbed by a big sword. I don't suppose that statue over there has a big sword, covered in blood?"

Roy
"S-same wounds."

Drumun
"Its gotta big sword"

R�senfeld
"Please tell me it's clean."

Drumun
"uhhhh"

Drufle (GM)
The large sword is clean.

Drumun
"Its clean"

R�senfeld sighs in relief

Drufle (GM)
Can the three of you make per rolls for me?
With one bane.

Roy
"Heh, it's just a statue, it's not like statues can come to li- oh yeah...."

R�senfeld
oh no.

Drumun
rolling 1d20 + 0 + -1d6k1( 20 )+0+-( 3 ) = 17
HELL YES

Drufle (GM)
Oh.

R�senfeld
rolling 1d20 + 2 + -1d6k1( 8 )+2+-( 4 ) = 6

Drumun
Screw you RNG
or is that a thank you RNG?

Roy
rolling 1d20 + 3 + -1d6k1( 8 )+3+-( 3 ) = 8

Drumun
I'm not even sure anymore honestly

Drufle (GM)
Drumun notices that not only does the statue's sword not have any blood on it, the entire statue is completely spotless.

Drumun
"Hang on...this statue is perfectly clean"

R�senfeld
that's it? it's not like, sarting to move?

Drufle (GM)
The statue is a statue.

Roy
"Is there such a thing as too clean?"

R�senfeld
"What do you mean, perfectly clean?"

Drumun
"there's nothin on it"
"not even dust"

Roy
"So you're saying it's new or something?"

Drumun
"New or newly cleaned"

R�senfeld
"Interesting."
maybe it has a hidden mechanism or something

Roy
"Who would take time for that."

R�senfeld
who is the statue of?
do i recognise it?

Drumun
"Two dead men an a clean statue"

Drufle (GM)
Of course you do! This is a statue of the High Inquisitor.

R�senfeld
being from the church and all

Drumun
"what kinda priorities do these people have?"

R�senfeld
"The right ones, I used to think. This is a demonstration of unhealthy vanity. One could consider it a sin, in light of who we serve."
alright so
bag with gold
armor sets
very clean statue
I am a bit nervous about corpses

Drumun
corpses are always bad news

Roy
"I'm bored."

R�senfeld
suggestions on getting more information?

Drumun
"..."

Drufle (GM)
Will checks are an option for hints.

R�senfeld blinks

Drumun
"Roy ye serious?"

Drufle (GM)
Roll with 1 bane.

R�senfeld
rolling 1d20 + 2 + -1d6k1( 13 )+2+-( 6 ) = 9
bah!

Drufle (GM)
Oof.

Roy
rolling 1d20 + 0 + -1d6k1( 14 )+0+-( 3 ) = 11

Drumun
rolling 1d20 + 1 + -1d6k1( 19 )+1+-( 2 ) = 18
yoink

Roy
"There's nothing we can do here as far I can see."

Drufle (GM)
Roy and Drumun puzzle out that despite being in a time of war, all of the armor slots on the all are occupied.
Shouldn't someone have taken them?
Also, on the wall*

Drumun
"hmmm"

Drumun pulls on an armor set

Drufle (GM)
Not there you aren't.
They're over here!
The statue's eyes glow with red light.

R�senfeld
oh dear

Drumun
"Are ye serious?"

Drufle (GM)
The head creaks towards the dwarf, and a disembodied voice speaks out loud.

Drumun lets go of the armor immediately

Roy
"I think red means stop."

Drufle (GM)
"Unauthorized armor removal. State access coooooo-"
The statue goes silent.

R�senfeld
"That is very swish."

Drumun
"Ah think that is why this armor is here"

R�senfeld
do we have any codes
papers

Drumun
not that I know of

Drufle (GM)
Nope.
Ruse wasn't quite high enough tier to get access to the armory of the High Inquisitor.

R�senfeld
"Well, we'd best leave that, I don't know how to circumvent that kind of security. I'm not even sure how it works."

Roy
"Let's leave these for display."

Drumun
"Good idea"

R�senfeld
other room?

Drufle (GM)
(honestly you guys could probably just buy armor this good)

Roy
lol yeah

Drumun
I'm pretty well armored right now I thnk

R�senfeld
did you take teh bag?

Drufle (GM)
Roy did, I assume?

Roy
yes
how much was it again

R�senfeld
^

Drufle (GM)
3 gc, 5 ss.
I believe.

Drumun
sounds about right

R�senfeld
making ntoe

Drumun
rolling 1d20 + 0 + 0d6k1( 2 )+0+() = 2

R�senfeld
note*

Drumun falls into the door

Drufle (GM)
This door still sounds like wood.

Drumun
that's not perception
that was stealth

R�senfeld
oh dear me

Drufle (GM)
Oh.

Drumun
stealth open door

Drufle (GM)
Drumun also kicks down a door.

Drumun
*falls into the door

Drumun faceplants

Drufle (GM)
This room is decorated with sigils of hammers and blades, but is otherwise empty.

Roy
"Why the sudden anger at the common door."

R�senfeld just doesn't know what to say.

Drufle (GM)
A number of open and empty chests lie around the room.

R�senfeld
can i recognise any of the sigils and stuff?

Roy
"Someone got here before us huh."

Drufle (GM)
This would be the room of the Hammers of Justice, keepers of arms and meters of fate.

Drumun
as long as there isn't a statue I'm fine

Drumun stands up

R�senfeld
what else do I know abot them, please?

Drufle (GM)
Realistically, this should've been where they kept all their weapons.

R�senfeld
is this one of those cases where churches leave soem stuff out for thieves and hide the good stuff
i know real churches did that

Drufle (GM)
Make a will check.

R�senfeld
like an offering for looters and riders

Drufle (GM)
Anyone else can do the same, but with one bane.

Drumun
all of us?

R�senfeld
rolling 1d20 + 2 + -1d6k1( 18 )+2+-( 4 ) = 16
Booyah.

Drumun
rolling 1d20 + 1 + -1d6k1( 18 )+1+-( 4 ) = 15
I mean might as well at this point

Drufle (GM)
Ruse doesn't get a bane since he actually knows the church, but you got it anyway.
All the chests have keyholes, implying they were locked.
It is unlikely that they were looted.

R�senfeld
(when did hints become a thing)

Drumun
no idea

Drufle (GM)
Since you guys actually were concerned about figuring things out.

Drumun
this is the first time I'm seeing this

R�senfeld
"The inventory here wasn't stolen.. it was collected."

Drumun
"Okay...what does this mean?"

Roy
"Must be some rich assholes."

R�senfeld
"And I'm not sure what it was all doing here to begin with - the Hammers of Justice do not stow their gear here."

Drumun
"Ah got a baaaad feelin in my gut"

R�senfeld
let's make sure the chests are empty
might have clue
clues

Drufle (GM)
Per checks, then.

Drumun
rolling 1d20 + 0 + 0d6k1( 12 )+0+() = 12

Roy
rolling 1d20 + 3 + 0d6k1( 10 )+3+() = 13

R�senfeld
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 0d6k1( 2 )+2+() = 4
pfaahaha\
I sort of look in some other direction
for no reason

Drufle (GM)
The chests are indeed empty, although a few arrows and bolts lie here and there.

R�senfeld
hm
doesn't look like we can do mch here
i'll tell you waht though
this place wasn't looted

Roy
"More archers ahead, it seems."

R�senfeld
while we were gone, some serious muscle came here
muscle with church keys

Drumun
"This is goin to be an issue"

R�senfeld
"God will protect you."

Drumun
"Ah guess all das left is upstairs?"

R�senfeld makes a short prayer

Drumun
"I appreciate it"

Roy
i wonder where mopp is

R�senfeld
yeah.. it's kinda late
i hoep he's not stuck working :/

Drufle (GM)
He said he would be late regardless.
You guys will be fiiiiine.

Drumun
should I listen in?

R�senfeld
i WAS wondering what this.. thing.. was :P
yes please do

Drufle (GM)
A spiral staircase!

Drumun
rolling 1d20 + 0 + 0d6k1( 6 )+0+() = 6

Roy
"Who knows what the people upstairs have prepared."

Drufle (GM)
You just walk up the stairs, like normal stairs.

Drumun
dead bodies were dragged up these steps
this ain't going to be normal

Roy
im gonna walk almost under hk

Drufle (GM)
Righto.

Drumun
any other per rolls?

R�senfeld
i'm going to RP a bit and trust drumun
I don't techncially know he failed

Drumun
"I kinnot hear anythin"

Drufle (GM)
You hear nothing from upstairs.

Drumun walks up in front

Drumun
"Les go..."

R�senfeld
"Alright.
up I go
with the kind of sure step that someone truly nuts has

Drufle (GM)
About halfway up the stairs, just as they disappear from view of the ground floor, there's a door in the middle of the staircase.
A large keyhole, decorated and gilded, stands in your way.

Roy
is this a middle floor

R�senfeld
we got any keys?

Drumun
oh, doesn't roy have a key?
"Wassis?"

Roy
didnt we have a key

Drumun
you had a magic key

Drufle (GM)
I sure hope one of you have the key.

Drumun
Roy had it

Drufle (GM)
She sure does.
So says the character sheet.

R�senfeld
phew

Roy
i still do
"Should I try this? I should try this."

R�senfeld
"Yes, I concur."

Roy
"I have a key, look."

Drumun steps aside to give Roy room

Drumun
"Give it a go"

R�senfeld
"But be careful."

Roy
i open a door and a boxing glove flies out

R�senfeld
lol
boyoyoyoing

Drufle (GM)
The key fits cleanly, and glitters a bit as it turns.

Drumun
there's a werewolf in there isn't there?

Drufle (GM)
The door swings open onto a small landing, and stairs continue upwards.

Roy
i forgot where we got the lkey from

R�senfeld
same boat

Drufle (GM)
Orcs.

R�senfeld
Good chaps.

Drufle (GM)
It was sitting on that table in the orc dungeon.

Drumun
well, looks like we keep going

R�senfeld
So kind of them to leave it for us to nick.

Roy
"Should we go here first?"

R�senfeld
"Might as well."

Drufle (GM)
There isn't a "here", the door was literally blocking the way up.

R�senfeld
gonna haev a quick peek through first

Drumun
"Yes, Ah think so"

R�senfeld
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 0d6k1( 1 )+2+() = 3
no, I'm not

Drufle (GM)
Amazing.

Roy
oh

R�senfeld
I sort of look directly down

Drumun
cobwebs cover your vision

R�senfeld
for no reason t all

Roy
read that completely wrong
rolling 1d20 + 3 + 0d6k1 ( 7 )+3+() = 10

R�senfeld
(me too, I thougt there was a middle floor)

Drufle (GM)
The stairs on the other side of the door are made of marble, and you hear some chanting coming from above.

R�senfeld
woah boy

Drumun
(honestly...I thought the same thing)

R�senfeld
that's gonna be fun
it's decided then, we blame the GM :P

Drumun
yep

Drufle (GM)
I said it was in the middle of the stairs!

Roy
"[laughs] I-imagine if there are cultists again. Wouldn't that be funny?"

Drumun
"Nay, lass"

R�senfeld
"That.. is a very real possibility."

Drufle (GM)
Anyway, up the stairs?

R�senfeld
"Do you want to keep going, child?"

Drumun
"It would not be funny..."

Roy
"Ladies first, boys."

R�senfeld
"The spirit is in that one."

Drumun
"Which one...joy or insanity?"

R�senfeld
what's the name of osserface

Roy
""i mean you""

R�senfeld
the lady from my relgion

Roy
"you go first"

Drufle (GM)
Astrid?

R�senfeld
Yes

Drumun keeps going up

Drufle (GM)
Alright, to the next map we go.

R�senfeld
thank you

Drumun
how is HK going to follow us?
he's big

Drufle (GM)
He can squeeze through just fine.

R�senfeld
like a dalek or something

Roy
can a horse climb stairs

R�senfeld
ELEVATE.

Roy

Drufle (GM)
It's tough but yes.

Drumun
rolling 1d20 + 0 + 0d6k1( 7 )+0+() = 7

Roy
"Marbly."

Drumun
PERC- nope

Drufle (GM)
The stairs emerge on a new floor, a much smaller one with gleaming white tiles.

Roy
rolling 1d20 + 3 + 0d6k1( 4 )+3+() = 7

Drumun
rng pls

Roy

Drufle (GM)
The windows are all stained glass, with beautiful images of Astrid and her works.

R�senfeld
top notch spiral stairs

Drufle (GM)
At the other end of the room...

R�senfeld
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 0d6k1( 6 )+2+() = 8
pft/

Drumun
RNG PLS
oh
oh no

Roy
nice, a small army

R�senfeld
oh go.

Drufle (GM)
A man in heavy armor kneels at an altar of Astrid, chanting quietly.

R�senfeld
god

Drufle (GM)
A massive sword lies next to him, leaning against the altar.

R�senfeld
look he killedd like aa bunch of people
wait
what'sh e chanting

Drufle (GM)
A number of dead bodies lie bleeding in the corner.
Oh, you should be well aware, Ruse.

R�senfeld
enemy of our enemy and all that

Drumun holds his breath

Drufle (GM)
He's the High Inquisitor! It's just some general prayers to Astrid.

R�senfeld
Right

Roy
"Everyone in this city's gone mad.."

Drumun
time for Sneaking

R�senfeld
"My liege..."
no way
he's the high inquisitor

Drufle (GM)
The chanting stops.

Drumun
okay nvm

Drufle (GM)
He stands to his feet and turns to the party.

Drumun
we ain't sneakin
"What happenen 'ere?"

R�senfeld
"Be quiet, you are speaking to teh high inquisitor!"

High Inquisitor Tormond
"Ah, how unexpected."

R�senfeld
sorry
old conditioning

High Inquisitor Tormond
"How did you get through the door?"

R�senfeld
"Clearly it was the New God's desire that we should."

Drumun
under his breath "Ah dun care who he is, there are dead men all over the place"

R�senfeld
"High Inquisitor, I don't understand... what has hapepned here? Why are all these acolytes dead?"

High Inquisitor Tormond
"They betrayed the cause. Tried to steal from the armory and flee."

Roy
"Should we tell him or should we let the big man do it."

Drumun
"Ah think we let him talk"

High Inquisitor Tormond
"So now, their sacrifice feeds the Inquisition."

R�senfeld
"Indeed..."

Drumun
"Does tha New God even take sacrifices?"
"Like...this kind"

R�senfeld
good question
i think no?
he's like ultra anti-sin

Drumun
my gut says no

High Inquisitor Tormond
"The New God does what he pleases, and I am acting through his will."

Roy
"Blood sacrifices! How rustic! I like it."

Drumun
"Roy please"

R�senfeld
tiem for more questions

High Inquisitor Tormond
"He has given me his favor."

R�senfeld
"It was his will to infest the orc, too?"

High Inquisitor Tormond
"The orcs are terrible beasts, and their insurrection needed to be ended."

R�senfeld
"There are cleaner ways."

High Inquisitor Tormond
"That is not the way of the Inquisition, as I'm sure you are aware."

R�senfeld
"All too well."

High Inquisitor Tormond
"All that is evil must be purged."

R�senfeld
honestly I'm scared shitless
High Inquisitor Tormond reaches down and picks up his greatsword.

R�senfeld
jsut so you guys know
but i'm also a fanatic

Drumun
"An ye are the judge of evil? or ye god?"

R�senfeld shivers a little bit

High Inquisitor Tormond
"That I am, low one. I can prove it, as well."

R�senfeld
"..."

Drumun
"Oi, no short jokes please"
High Inquisitor Tormond turns back to the altar and places his holy symbol down.

Drumun
"that's just distasteful"

Drufle (GM)
The altar glows with bright light, and a sense of power washes over the party.
When the light fades...

Drumun
what is that

Roy
"I'm sorry to say, but that man is-"

Drufle (GM)
A winged humanoid with gleaming skin and beautiful features stands by the High Inquisitor's side.

R�senfeld
wow.

Drumun
"What in the world?"

High Inquisitor Tormond
"Even now, the New God sends me his servants to rid the world of evil."

R�senfeld is in stunned silence

R�senfeld
ask yourselves where in New God lore are angels

Drumun
"Russ....what is that?"

Roy
"Looks like smoke and mirrors to me."

R�senfeld
I don't recall reading about them
"I have never seen the like, Drumun."

High Inquisitor Tormond
"Ah, so you do not believe in the higher powers? Would you care to sample their strength?"

R�senfeld
"Please, they are in service to the New God, just as we are."

Drumun
this is going to suuuuuck

R�senfeld
"There is a reason he allowed me to protect them thus far.
"From your wayward minions, no less."

High Inquisitor Tormond
"I can sense the evil in your partners' hearts, initiate."

R�senfeld
"..."
he's vvery convincing

High Inquisitor Tormond
"Greed, anger, powerlust."

Drumun
"I ain't any of those"

R�senfeld
"I... but they are my friends."

Drumun
"Just very...confused"

High Inquisitor Tormond
"They must be cleansed. You know this."

R�senfeld
aw jeez

Roy
"I don't need any special sense to know a pile of corpses is bad."

R�senfeld
ok uh
"...I cannot abide by this. The sacrifice is wrong, it is abhorrant."

Drufle (GM)
(boy now sure would be a great time for mopp to show up)

Drumun
"Ah'm with Roy, that pile of bodies is not helpin yer case"

R�senfeld
decision time

High Inquisitor Tormond
"Very well. Then you must die with them."

Roy
"We, we make sense! None of what you're doing or saying makes any sense!"

R�senfeld
"And this 'servant' with you, is no servant of the Lord."
"If I do not survive, remember that."
"When you die."
High Inquisitor Tormond nods and lowers his visor, heaving his greatsword with a single hand.

Roy
yike

Drumun
shiiiiit

R�senfeld
yeah..

Drumun pulls out his hammer

Drufle (GM)
Who's ready for the fight of your life?

R�senfeld
gather 'round so i can bless you?

Drumun
is this close enough?

R�senfeld
well, yes, but we're in cmobat now

Drufle (GM)
Fast turns?

R�senfeld
so that has to be part of a turn
hence my question - do you want to gather 'round for blessing?

Drumun
should we fast turn and get blessed quickly?

Drufle (GM)
I think you're all close enough?

R�senfeld
in that case, BLESS!

Drufle (GM)
Oh, nope.

R�senfeld says a prayer for the party

Drufle (GM)
It's reach.

Drumun
oh

R�senfeld neverminds

Drufle (GM)
So none of you are within range.

Drumun
right, fast turn to get next to russ

R�senfeld
maybe I"LL take the fast turn
then you lot can do whatever

Roy
same

R�senfeld
or does that not work

Drumun
I'd like not to fight without some help from a bless

R�senfeld
yea i mean i'll go between you all and bless

Drumun
I don't think you can do that on a fast turn

R�senfeld
welp

Drumun
you can either move or act, but not both

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.

R�senfeld
yeah i thought so
alright well

Drumun
but yeah, I spend my fast turn getting next to russ

Drufle (GM)
So Roy and Drumun can rush next to you and get blessed.
HK is "within reach".
Due to being giant.

Drumun
of course
he can defend

R�senfeld
ooh hang about

Roy
forgot to load my weapon
yike

R�senfeld
yeah i need to hold my rifle or something

Drufle (GM)
You can always assume you start with weapons being reloaded.

Roy
ok

R�senfeld
alright let's do that then

Drufle (GM)
That would be a silly thing to not always have done.

R�senfeld
yup
in that case i bless them as soon as they're in range

Drufle (GM)
Righto.
Other fast turns?

Drumun
while you guys do that I'm going to take a quick bathroom break

R�senfeld
same actually

Drufle (GM)
Uhhhh ok.
Roy?
What would you like to do.

Roy
oh can i do a thing now

Drufle (GM)
It's fast turn time.
Are you taking a fast turn?

Roy
i moved and got blessed already yes

Drufle (GM)
You have to be a bit closer.
Within reach of him.

Moppy

Drufle (GM)
He's here!

R�senfeld

MOPP!

Roy

R�senfeld

Moppy

Drufle (GM)
You guys are in a bad place right now.
The High Inquisitor and an angel are currently staring you guys down.

R�senfeld
yeah like... balls in my other pants bad

Moppy

Roy
i hope it scream

R�senfeld
well i suspect it's under demonic influence

Drufle (GM)
Winged human with shiny skin and stuff.

Moppy
well then

R�senfeld
i mean i don't think the New God has angels

Drufle (GM)
The other three all took fast turns and now all of you are blessed.

Drumun
alright I'm back

Drufle (GM)
Do you want a fast turn, Mopp?

Drumun
I suggest defending

Moppy
uhhhhh

Drumun
because this is going to huuuurt

Moppy

R�senfeld
priest vs superpriest
i'm so scared haha

Drufle (GM)
Wise.

Moppy

Drufle (GM)
Yep.

Moppy
ok good

Drumun
someone is going to die in this, I can feel it

Drufle (GM)
You can reread the logs later if you'd like.

Drumun
I hope ya'll have backups

Moppy
righto

Drufle (GM)
Tormond turns to the angel and motions forward.

R�senfeld
man i hoe ruse doesn't die, being plot lead is fun
ooh, is that an action?
does he have to instruct the being?

Drufle (GM)
No.

Drumun
ahhhh

R�senfeld
damn

Drufle (GM)
Tormond then points at HK.

Drumun
are they slow turning?
oh nooooo

High Inquisitor Tormond
"You cretins shall be cleansed of your evil!"

H. Knight glowers at the flappy man

Drumun
pffft

Drufle (GM)
rolling 1d6( 5 ) = 5

Drumun
what the hell?

Drufle (GM)
I would like everyone to make an AGI roll with one boon.

Roy
"If you're really for the good and all that, you'll take our side! The man that summoned you is capital E- EVIL!"

Drumun
rolling 1d20 + 0 + 1d6k1( 4 )+0+( 4 ) = 8

Roy
rolling 1d20 + 0 + 1d6k1( 6 )+0+( 2 ) = 8

Drumun
uh oh

Drufle (GM)
Oh dear.

Drumun
this is not good

Drufle (GM)
HK? Ruse?

Drumun
please someone avoid this

R�senfeld
rolling 1d20 + 0 + 1d6k1( 2 )+0+( 2 ) = 4

Drufle (GM)
Wow.

Drumun
noooooo

R�senfeld
holy hell

H. Knight
rolling 1d20 + -1 + 1d6k1( 5 )+-1+( 5 ) = 9

Drufle (GM)
Amazing.
rolling 1d6+2 ( 1 )+2 = 3

Drumun
sob

Roy
the angel unhinges its mouth and swallows everyone whole

Drufle (GM)
You all take 3 damage as a lightning bolt launches from Tormond's finger and strikes the ground, spreading outwards.

Drumun
oh thank the heavens that didn't murder us

H. Knight fizzles

Drufle (GM)
Since nobody took a slow turn, we go right back to the top.

R�senfeld
ouch

Drumun jitters

R�senfeld
ok strat time

Roy
what does a blessing do

Drumun
*aksdhgasdhg"

R�senfeld

Roy

Drufle (GM)
Actually wait, yeah.
You guys all get a boon on saves.

R�senfeld

Drufle (GM)
That wasn't including the blessing.

H. Knight

Drufle (GM)

Drumun

Drufle (GM)
I was just retroactively including that boon.

R�senfeld

Drufle (GM)
There was no point to Ruse rolling it.
It couldn't save you.

R�senfeld
alright

Drufle (GM)
Anyway, fast turns?

Drumun
I am taking a slow turn right now

R�senfeld

Drufle (GM)

Drumun

Roy

Roy

R�senfeld
rememver to move so i can aim at it
and not blow your tiny head right off

Drufle (GM)
She's short, you can shoot over her.

H. Knight
I'm wondering if one of us should aggro the boss

R�senfeld
alright then

Drumun
oh

H. Knight
keep him for shooting at the crowd

Drumun
maintain defensive positions?

H. Knight
*from

R�senfeld
he's convinced that this angel is the new god's favour
let's just prove him wrong
he might surrender

H. Knight
ok

Drufle (GM)
So is anyone taking a fast turn?

R�senfeld
i'm going to shoot at it yes

Roy
"I never liked the color white."

H. Knight
I can poke it from here right

Roy

Drufle (GM)
Go ahead then.
Noooot quite.
Do you have a reach weapon?

H. Knight

H. Knight

Drufle (GM)
Oh, then yeah.
You can reach it.

Drumun

H. Knight

Drufle (GM)
Lemme look up the rifle quickly.

R�senfeld

Drufle (GM)
AGI
All ranged weapons are.

R�senfeld

Drufle (GM)
So just- yeah that.

Drumun

Drufle (GM)
Man, that blessing.

R�senfeld

Drufle (GM)
Out of curiosity.

Drumun

R�senfeld
Oh dear.
I dont' actually know,.

Drufle (GM)
Lead?

Drumun

R�senfeld

H. Knight

Drufle (GM)
Alright.

R�senfeld

Drufle (GM)
Yeah, that hits.

R�senfeld
lead.

Drufle (GM)
Roll 3d6 for damage.

R�senfeld
rolling 3d6( 4 + 2 + 2 ) = 8

Drumun
oh, its defense isn't stupidly high, good

R�senfeld
bobobOM!

Drumun covers his left ear

Drufle (GM)
A bullet strikes the angel's wing, and it releases a gasp.

H. Knight
the wild gasp eats HK's face

R�senfeld
"The lord's favour indeed!"

Drufle (GM)
HK, go ahead.
Lance away.

H. Knight
alrighty

Drumun
deal excessive damage and we might survive

H. Knight

Drufle (GM)

H. Knight
"Have at thee, shining demon!"
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 2d6k1 ( 20 )+2+( 2 + 6 ) = 28

Drufle (GM)
Oh GOD

R�senfeld

Drumun
HOLY COW

Drumun

Drufle (GM)
Ok well.
You get another 1d6.
For your warrior thing.

Drumun

Drufle (GM)
So that,s what, 4d6+1.

H. Knight

R�senfeld
AHAHHA

Drumun
man I think this is going right for the heart

H. Knight
ok 4d6

R�senfeld
a spear guided by the new god himself!

Drumun
you're doing more damage than a gun

Drufle (GM)
And out of curiosity, I imagine this lance is iron? Or at least steel?

Roy
must be weak to silver or something

Drumun
this is a fairy isn't it?

H. Knight
yes iron lance

Drumun
or...
waaaaait

R�senfeld
noooo

Drumun
Changling

R�senfeld
don't be immune

H. Knight
rolling 4d6 + 1( 3 + 5 + 3 + 5 )+1 = 17

Drufle (GM)
He isn't immune, no.
Lordy me.

Drumun
massive damage

R�senfeld
ded?
rekt?

Drufle (GM)
No.
However.

Drumun
its a fucking changling

Drufle (GM)
As the steel lance pierces the body of the angel, it shrieks with a horrible noise.

Drumun
at least a fairy

R�senfeld
ah

H. Knight winces at the noice

Drufle (GM)
Its skin warps and melts, and the shining white skin fades to reveal a horrible figure.

Roy
"Why isn't speaking to us!"

R�senfeld
so noice

Drumun
okay not a changling
"What in the world!?"

H. Knight
"I see, a facade of divinity..."

R�senfeld
"THIS - is what you thought served the one true god?"

Roy
rolling 1d20 + 3 + 0d6k1( 7 )+3+() = 10

Drumun
"That's not holy at all!"

Drufle (GM)
A floating, naked human floats a foot above the ground, pustules covering its skin.

Roy
aw, int check didnt work

Drufle (GM)
Black slime leaks from its mouth, and deathly black pits cover its eyes.

Drumun
DEMON

R�senfeld
"Tormond, there is still time for change of heart."
trying my hand at diplomacy
lemme know if dead end

Drufle (GM)
Tormond's hand is still.

Drumun
"Look at this thing! How is this a god's favor?"

H. Knight
is this Chara

Roy
"What if this is exactly the kind of favor the gods give out."

Drufle (GM)
Roy and Drumun, you're taking slow turns?

Drumun
I am slow turning

Roy
im making afast turn~

Drufle (GM)
Go ahead.

R�senfeld
"..."

Drufle (GM)
Oh, and uh.

Roy
charge my weapon for an augmented attack

Drufle (GM)
By the way.

Drumun
I can't do anything at this point

R�senfeld
seems like the kind of thing the OCD god of anti-sin wouldn't like.

Drufle (GM)
Before we continue.
You guys all seem awfully horrified by this turn of events.

Drumun
of course

R�senfeld
oh dear..

H. Knight
oh I thought we were immune to that

Roy
of curse

Drumun

R�senfeld
we can't get frightened

Drufle (GM)
Except, you know, Roy.

R�senfeld
we can still be horrified

H. Knight
ohhh
odd

Drufle (GM)
Who is immune to horrifying traits.

H. Knight
roll will?

Drumun
don't I have a coin?

Roy
because of the key?

Drufle (GM)
The rest of you roll Will.

Drumun
what does the coin do?

Drufle (GM)
Wait, no.
The key suppresses shadows.
The coin is the one that makes you immune, isn't it.

H. Knight

and drumun has that

Roy

R�senfeld

Drumun

Drufle (GM)

Drufle (GM)

Drumun holds onto his coin and prays to whoever would listen

H. Knight
rolling 1d20 + -1 + 1d6k1( 9 )+-1+( 6 ) = 14

Drufle (GM)
Roy, take one insanity.
But don't get frightened!

R�senfeld

Drufle (GM)

Drufle (GM)

Roy
"You know what this is, don't you!"

R�senfeld

H. Knight
"Come At Me."

Drufle (GM)
rolling 1d20+3+1d6( 17 )+3+( 3 ) = 23
WHACK

R�senfeld

Drufle (GM)
rolling 3d6+2( 5 + 1 + 3 )+2 = 11

Drumun

R�senfeld
Wow.

Drumun
I would heal HK when you can, Russ

Drufle (GM)
The monster produces a blade of black fire and drives it into HK's chest!

H. Knight

Drumun

R�senfeld
yep, nearest opportunity.

Drufle (GM)
Also, AGI save, HK!

H. Knight

Drufle (GM)
Yeah he's fine.

H. Knight
"Agh!"

Drumun
I think you have enough health to survive this

Drufle (GM)
How much health do you have?
You had 22, you took 11.
So that was half your health.

Roy

H. Knight

Drufle (GM)
Oh, and that.
Yes.
So, 8.

Drumun

R�senfeld

Drumun

Drufle (GM)
Ruse was that a space quest reference.

R�senfeld
well wilco is real military jargon

Drufle (GM)
And yeah, Big man Tormond is taking a slow turn.

H. Knight
"roger wilco" is a common phrase

Drufle (GM)
Oh.

R�senfeld
but sure
i love space quest

Drufle (GM)
I only know him as the protagonist of the space quest series.

Drumun
right
here;s an Idea

R�senfeld
oh wait
seris?

Drumun
what if I sneak?

R�senfeld
can.. you sneak?

Drumun
can I surprise the demon and get a boon?

Drufle (GM)
Surprise?

Drumun
he's not paying attention to me
can I sneak around behind him?

H. Knight
I want to know if the damage was reduced. or are we not using the new rules yet?

Drufle (GM)
You already have two boons, I think you'll be fine.

Drumun
HK, not yet

H. Knight
ok!

Drumun
I am using a warhammer, Druf
so one of those boons is gone

Drufle (GM)
Ah, true.
If you flank him, I'll give it to you.
As in, directly behind him.

Drumun
sneak roll or no sneak roll?

Drufle (GM)
Roll agi with one boon.
Er, two boons.

R�senfeld

007 style

Drumun
rolling 1d20 + 0 + 2d6k1( 4 )+0+( 3 + 6 ) = 10

Drufle (GM)
Wow.

Drufle (GM)
Right then.
Go ahead.

Drumun

Drumun raises his hammer above his head, quietly

R�senfeld
my god i'm so happy it exists

Drumun
2 boons and a hammer swing
rolling 3d6 + 0 ( 3 + 3 + 3 )+0 = 9
woops wait
that was damage
ignore that

Drufle (GM)
:P
that will be your damage once you hit.

Drumun
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 2d6k1( 12 )+2+( 1 + 1 ) = 15

Drufle (GM)
Good.

Drumun
good enough

R�senfeld
BASH

Drufle (GM)
9 it is!

Drumun
yeah sure

Drumun brings the hammer down onto the demon's backside

H. Knight
jiggle that rump

Drufle (GM)
Tormond points at Drumun, and a small hammer appears next to him.

Drumun
"Are ye serious?"

R�senfeld
STILL?

Roy
BONK

R�senfeld
wow he's like
nuts
more nuts than me

Drufle (GM)
rolling 1d20+3+1d6( 13 )+3+( 2 ) = 18
Hit?

Drumun
"Ye can't be seriously still doing- ow!"
yeah its a hit

Drufle (GM)
rolling 2d6( 2 + 4 ) = 6

H. Knight
is this a running gag

Drumun
up to 9 damage so far

Drufle (GM)
Tormond then moves over a bit.

Drumun
wait, did HK do anything?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah, fast turn.

H. Knight
I am stuck like a pig

Drumun
oh right
got it

Drufle (GM)
He stabbed the "angel".
Alright, top of the round!
That hammer is still there.
By the way

Drumun
Fast turn

Roy
the ghost hammer

R�senfeld
i don't thin that's something I can dispell..

Drumun
Defensive Strike, if I can

Drufle (GM)
Righto.

Drumun
1 boon from warrior, 1 from bless, -2 from hammer and defenseive
right?

Drufle (GM)
Yes.

Drumun
or am I still flanking?

Drufle (GM)
Oh, yeah.

R�senfeld
gimme a quick minute to look up shared recovery and prayer

Drufle (GM)
So one boon total.
Oh geez you should've been using prayer!

Drumun
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 1d6k1( 10 )+2+( 2 ) = 14

Drufle (GM)
I forgot about that.

Drumun
hmmmm

R�senfeld
me too
sorry guys

H. Knight
s'alright I'm good

Drumun swings his hammer again

Drufle (GM)
Everyone within 5 tiles of you can get a boon if you spend a t-action for it.
Roll damage, Drumun.

Drumun
rolling 3d6 + 0( 4 + 3 + 4 )+0 = 11

Drufle (GM)
Wow, ok.

Drumun
this thiings defense is actually pretty low

R�senfeld
ok so

Drumun
I'm trying to break this things back

Drufle (GM)
Who else is going fast?

R�senfeld
i am fast turning to shared recovery me and HK

Drumun
also holy shit its' still alive

Drufle (GM)
Smart.

R�senfeld
that's full rate rather than half

Roy
im going fast

Drufle (GM)
HK, heal 5 hp I believe.
Whatever your rate is.

H. Knight
hm
yes

R�senfeld
oh wit i have damage

Drufle (GM)
Roy, HK?

R�senfeld
now i don't. :3

Drufle (GM)
Roy's going fast, yes.

Roy
ok im gonna do it

H. Knight
is the sword still in my chest?

Roy
summon a dang monster

Drumun
oh snap

R�senfeld
dew it!

Drufle (GM)
Where?

Roy
behind him

Drumun
what is it?

Drufle (GM)
Describe your little fella, if you would.

Roy
"Go forth! Shard."

Drumun
mimikyu?

Drufle (GM)
Pfffft.

Roy
A figure of shadows writhes beneath a yellow veil
One can make out a face under it.

H. Knight
oh good lord

Drufle (GM)
So kinda like Mimikyu, yeah, except I don't think we even knew about Mimikyu when you made that?
I didn't at least.

Roy
same

Drufle (GM)
Total coincidence.

Drumun
well, you have a mimikyu now

H. Knight
suure

Drufle (GM)
The monster may attack now.

Roy
"Two can play at this game."

R�senfeld
what tradition was that?

Drumun can't see the Mimikyu where he is

Drufle (GM)
Conjuration.

R�senfeld
hm.

Drufle (GM)
A great school of magic!
Not evil, by the way.

R�senfeld
yeah

Roy
wait it doesnt have an attack ye

R�senfeld
i figured

Drumun
totally not evil

R�senfeld
thanks

Drufle (GM)
It has a basic attack, right?
Just like a natural weapon.

H. Knight
use tackle!

Roy
no boons right
wait one boon

Drufle (GM)
Well he gets one free boon.
Not from blessing though

R�senfeld
none from blessing

Roy
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 1d6k1( 5 )+2+( 2 ) = 9

Drumun
Tackle the Highpriest

R�senfeld
that would've been awesome

Drufle (GM)
Not even close pal.

Drumun
just...gently nudge the highpriest

Roy
womp

R�senfeld
oh god does HE have insane defense?

Drufle (GM)
Do you guys remember our veteran friend?

Drumun
yes...

R�senfeld
i... don't. :P

Drufle (GM)
Imagine him, but with better stats, more magic, and enough strength to one-hand a greatsword.

Drumun
welp

R�senfeld
...
that is scary

Drumun
he's nearly alone though

Drufle (GM)
The angel wasn't really intended to be the actual boss.

H. Knight
the angel is the flunky

Drufle (GM)
He was just kinda there to spook ya.

Roy
he can probably oneshot the shard

Drufle (GM)
Anyway, enemy fast turns!

R�senfeld
well.. great

Drufle (GM)
Tormond turns around.

High Inquisitor Tormond
"I shall suffer no evil!"

R�senfeld
he speaks

Drufle (GM)
rolling 1d20+4-1d6( 16 )+4-( 4 ) = 16
Hit?

Roy's Summon
[screeches]

Drumun
D:

Drufle (GM)
rolling 4d6( 4 + 1 + 5 + 5 ) = 15

Roy's Summon
hits

R�senfeld covers one ear and squints a bit

R�senfeld
much screeching in htis battle

Drufle (GM)
Tormond raises his arm and heaves it at the Shard.

H. Knight
oh my god he cut off his arm

Roy's Summon
it.. dissipates

Drufle (GM)
Oh, well, uh, no.
I didn't really mean it like that.
You know, sword arm.

H. Knight
ok

Drufle (GM)
Slashy.

Drumun
:P

Drufle (GM)
Dead Shard.

R�senfeld
i imagine it like
he turned around, swishing his arm at the same tim
and then FWOOSH
the sword slices through the thing
it looks beautiful in my head

Roy
"You'll pay for that! In gold!"

Drufle (GM)
Tormond turns his head and golden light flashes from his visor.
The hammer strikes again!

Drumun
its got a bane this time

Drufle (GM)
Oh yes, it does.
rolling 1d20+3 ( 4 )+3 = 7
Whoops.

Drumun
yeah that's not hitting anything

Drufle (GM)
The hammer bounces off of Drumun's shield.

Drumun
I don't have my shield out

Drufle (GM)
Angel!

R�senfeld
you guys think we should eliminate the minions?

Drumun
I have the Warhammer out

H. Knight
the angel yes

Drumun
its just that pathetic
yes get rid of the minion it can still hit hard

Drufle (GM)
The angel shrieks, and black fire bursts from its body.
All four of you, make a STR check with one boon.

Drumun
counting bless?

Roy
rolling 1d20 + 0 + 1d6k1( 2 )+0+( 3 ) = 5

R�senfeld
rolling 1d20 + -1 + 1d6k1( 19 )+-1+( 5 ) = 23
wow

H. Knight
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 1d6k1( 13 )+2+( 6 ) = 21

Drumun
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 1d6k1( 15 )+2+( 4 ) = 21
wooo

R�senfeld
awriiight

Drufle (GM)
The fire surges at Roy, scorching her.
rolling 2d6 ( 5 + 4 ) = 9
9 damage.

Drumun
oh jeeze

R�senfeld
i missed roy's roll
did you survive that?

Drumun
it was low

Roy
barely

Drufle (GM)
Was anyone taking a slow turn?

Drumun
can you pls not die again Roy

Roy
i cannot guarantee that

Drumun
I already attacked I think

R�senfeld
hmm
mine was fast

Drumun
has HK done anything?

Drufle (GM)
He, uh, didn't.
I don't think.

H. Knight
nope

Drumun
step back and stab again HK

H. Knight
I asked but was ignored
is
the sword
still in my chest

Drufle (GM)
Oh, that was just flavor texxt.

H. Knight
oh ok

Drufle (GM)
It doesn't actually mean anything.

H. Knight
alrighty!

Drufle (GM)
Sorry about that.

H. Knight
makes things easier

Drufle (GM)
Well you have a slow turn now, go wild.
Or pretend you took a fast turn.
Doesn't really matter to me, I didn't attack you this round.

Drumun
I would recommend moving and then attacking mabye

H. Knight
now am I holding the lance in two hands?
I figured i wouldn't be

R�senfeld
is the hammer destrubtible?

Drufle (GM)
Nah, one hand.

H. Knight
since i'm a horse
okk good
I'll get the axe out with the other hand!

Drufle (GM)
Oh geez.

Drumun
ooooh

R�senfeld
:O

H. Knight
and chop at this gooey kewpie doll

Drufle (GM)
MULTIWEAPON

Drumun
roll well

R�senfeld
a case where duel-wield is good??

Drufle (GM)
Stab away.
Nah I wouldn't actually dual-wield.

H. Knight
I'm not dual-wielding
just

Drumun
oh okay

Drufle (GM)
Just strike with your axe.

H. Knight
too close for lance

Drufle (GM)
So, two boons!

H. Knight
roleplaying~~

Drumun
ah of course

R�senfeld
oh.
i mean you're tall..
you could just stab straight down?

H. Knight
the angel floats

Drufle (GM)
If this is a normal axe, it'll do 3d6+1 damage.

Drumun
what does more damage?

R�senfeld
wow that's still good

Drufle (GM)
They're actually the same damage.

H. Knight
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 2d6k1( 4 )+2+( 1 + 2 ) = 8

Drumun
oh okay
D:

H. Knight
oh no!

R�senfeld
nuuuuu

Drufle (GM)
Aw bugger.
The axe whiffs by the oozing creature.

Drumun
wait, doesn't he get a boon from flanking?

H. Knight
"Can///t... rEEac//h"

Drufle (GM)
Oh.
Uh, yeah.
Roll another d6?

H. Knight
rolling 1d6( 5 ) = 5

Drufle (GM)
Well that's a hit then.

Drumun
yay

R�senfeld
YUSS

H. Knight
oh boy!

Drufle (GM)
This poor angel's defense is literally 11.

Drumun
good to know

R�senfeld
FEEL THE PAIN! WE DA GOD SQUAD!

H. Knight
still 4d6+1?

Drufle (GM)
3d6
The extra d6 was because you broke 20 with your roll.
Warriors!

H. Knight
oh right
is the axe base 2d6

Drufle (GM)
1d6+1

H. Knight
right so

Drufle (GM)
You get one die from Big, and one from Warrior.

H. Knight
the 3d6 on the sheet must be
incorporating both other dice

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.

H. Knight
right!

Drufle (GM)
I mean, this is just a normal one-handed axe.

H. Knight
rolling 3d6 + 1( 3 + 6 + 4 )+1 = 14

Drumun
hits like a truck though

H. Knight cleaves the demon's face off

Drufle (GM)
HK heaves up his arm, and brings it down on the creature's head, splitting it in twain.

Drumun covers his face

H. Knight
"That... hurt."

R�senfeld
mark twain?

Drumun
"Excellent"

Drufle (GM)
It gurgles and crumples to the ground, a mass of flesh and ooze.
Top of the round!

Drumun
Fast turn, I want away from this hammer

Roy
slow turn

R�senfeld
hm..

H. Knight
fast turn, he's got his back to us

Drumun
can you reach?

Drufle (GM)
He can with his lance.
Thing's big!

Drumun
nice

R�senfeld
i'd shoot him but I don't want roy to die
what should I do?

H. Knight
I want to see if I can charge him and knock him prone
heal please

Drufle (GM)
Oh, geeze.
And yeah, heal.
Tormond hits like a freight train full of lead bricks.

R�senfeld
alright, fast turn, minor heal Roy

Drufle (GM)
Alright, Roy heal half rate.

Drumun
isn't that like...1 hp?

Roy
ye

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.
Minor healing is not a very good spell.
HK, take your swing.

Drumun
I believe he was going to charge?
knock the guy over?

H. Knight
gonna try

Drufle (GM)
Yeah, make your charge.

Drumun
that's 2 banes isn't it?

Drufle (GM)
Make an attack roll with 1 boon.

H. Knight
ok

Drufle (GM)
No, just one bane.

Drumun
well alright
oh good

Drufle (GM)
Which, since he had 2 boons, gives him 1 boon total.

Drumun
bring down the lance into this man's chest

R�senfeld
i'm happy that's how it works and you don't actually have to roll a bane and 2 boons

Drufle (GM)
It is very nice.

H. Knight
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 1d6k1( 4 )+2+( 2 ) = 8
hrg

R�senfeld
shucks.

Drufle (GM)
Awww what.

Drumun
bugger

H. Knight
missed

Drufle (GM)
Well an extra boon certainly would not have helped that roll, sorry.

H. Knight
shuld#ve used the shield

Drufle (GM)
You can still make a str check.
To push him down.

H. Knight
ok

Drufle (GM)
Uh, did the music stop for anyone else?

H. Knight
boons?

R�senfeld
yep

Drumun
did for me

Drufle (GM)
And yeah, one boon.

H. Knight
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 1d6k1( 9 )+2+( 2 ) = 13

Drumun
hmmm

Drufle (GM)
Wow, this song just does not want to work anymore.
Butts.
Also, that's a hit.
Man is on the ground.

H. Knight
excelelnt

Roy
crush him

Drumun
I'll take a slow turn then

Roy
you know guys

Drufle (GM)
Man I think this song is just broken.

Roy
we really shouldnt kill him
we must inquisite the inquisitor

Drumun
just deal non-lethal damage every turn

Drufle (GM)
Alright I apologize, but we'll have to go back to the normal fight music.

H. Knight rushes at Tormond, aiming for the small of his back. in his rush the tip of the lance slides past him, but the momentum of the charge brings Tormond to the floor."

Drufle (GM)
At least until I can fix this.

Roy
i miss this

R�senfeld
when it comes to sparing the highest authority in my group, and not dying, i think i'll choose the latter? but if we can incapacitate teh bastard, sure

Drumun
should I sit on him?

Drufle (GM)
Well, Drumun, I would escape the hammer wrath.
You did say you would do that.

Roy
fart on his face

Drumun
can I fast turn and sit on the guy?

R�senfeld
doorbell, brb.

Drufle (GM)
Uh.
I mean sitting won't do much, really.
That'd be a grab attempt.

Drumun
it will make it very hard for him to get up

Drufle (GM)
Which is an action.
Hence, slow turn.

Drumun
aw...
fine, I fast turn to get next to him
if he stays down I'll sit on him next turn

Drufle (GM)
Enemy fast turn!
The hammer vanishes.
Tormond is taking a slow turn.

Drumun
ah, okay

Drufle (GM)
Player slow turns?

Roy
me

R�senfeld
aright, sorry, got some stuff to put away in frige
won't be a mo

Roy
i move way back

Drumun
I should switch to my sword
when my turn comes
I need accuracy now

Roy
and cast spectral grasp i guess

Drumun
can you use the stairs for cover?
druf?

Roy
the angel attacked him irl

Drufle (GM)
Sorry hello.
I got pulled away.

Drumun
ah okay
pulled away by the ANGEL

Drufle (GM)
And no, there's no bannister.

Drumun
I mean, down the steps a little

Drufle (GM)
The stairs just are sunken into the floor.
Uh, I guess?

Drumun
to make it harder to hit her

Drufle (GM)
You might not have LOS then.

Drumun
peak over the edge

Drufle (GM)
But go ahead and cast spectral grasp.

Roy
im gonna make an int roll against agi now
still with a boon or

Drufle (GM)
Yep.

Drumun
any bonuses from the guy being prone?

Drufle (GM)
Blessing is only like half done.
Uh, lemme look.

Roy
rolling 1d20 + 3 + 1d6k1( 16 )+3+( 5 ) = 24

Drumun
okay nvm there is no need

Roy
On a success, the target takes 1d3 damage and makes attack rolls with 1 bane for 1 round.
Attack Roll 20+ The target takes 1d6 extra damage.

R�senfeld
back

Drumun
good damage

Drufle (GM)
Oh geez yeah you're fine.
Roll damage then.

Roy
rolling 1d3( 1 ) = 1

Drumun
also the 1d6

Roy
oh
i thought that meant like
the dice roll
ok
rolling 1d6 ( 1 ) = 1

Drufle (GM)
He makes agi/str rolls with 1 bane, anyone who can reach him make attacks with 1 boon, and those who cant reach him make attacks against defense with 1 bane.

Roy
lmao

H. Knight
bahahaha
Drumun: : |

Drufle (GM)
Good enough.
Was anyone else going slow?
I don't think so

Drumun
Russ healed someone right?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.

R�senfeld
yep

Drumun
so I think that's it

Roy
hey, free debuff at least

Drufle (GM)
Alright, his turn then.
He will stand up.

R�senfeld
oh god

Drumun
time for pain

Drufle (GM)
He turns to the two next to him.

Drumun is worried

High Inquisitor Tormond
"I'll make your deaths swift."

Roy
swing

Drumun
"Ya never met a dwarf before have ye?"

Roy
tfw hes actually LEFT HANDED

Drumun
"We dun die swiftly"

Drufle (GM)
Both of you make an agi roll.

Drumun
"Also did you miss tha part where ye SUMMONED A DEMON"

Drufle (GM)
With, well, two boons.

H. Knight
rolling 1d20 + -1 + 2d6k1( 18 )+-1+( 6 + 1 ) = 23

Drumun
rolling 1d20 + 0 + 2d6k1( 8 )+0+( 1 + 5 ) = 13

Drufle (GM)
Well then.
rolling 2d6 ( 4 + 1 ) = 5

Drumun
good enough?

Drufle (GM)
You both take 2 damage.

Drumun
okay then

H. Knight
from what? a sword swing?

Drufle (GM)
Yes.

H. Knight
ok

Drumun
"Its official, ye lost yer mind"

R�senfeld
can I denounce him?

Drufle (GM)
He sets his sword alight, and swings it in a great arc, barely clipping the two of you.

H. Knight
"try harder."

Drumun ducks, losing some hair

Drufle (GM)
Top of the round!

R�senfeld
or does that only work on demons?

Drufle (GM)
Denounce works on everyone.

Drumun
at this point it is unclear if this man is possessed or now

Drufle (GM)
Censure is the demons-only one.
Also, you don't have censure.

R�senfeld
well i'm hoping putting some fear in him.
will help

Drufle (GM)
Who's going fast and slow?

R�senfeld
with the whole nuts thing

Drumun
I'll be going fast

H. Knight
I think I shal be fast because

Roy
im going fast

H. Knight
I've forgotten what slow does

Drufle (GM)
You get a move and an action.

R�senfeld
move+action?

Drumun
slow wouldn't help you here I don't think

Drufle (GM)
You also get two minor activities instead of one.
If, you know, that helps.

H. Knight
ok

Drufle (GM)
So from the top, Drumun?

R�senfeld
hm. well i think i reload and shoot this time, eh? unless you think I should frighten him instead

Drumun
right okay

R�senfeld
if I do frighten him he gets a bane on some rolls right?

Drufle (GM)
All rolls, yeah.

Drumun
how many boons would I have if I dropped a hammer on this guy right now?

R�senfeld
for one round

Drufle (GM)
Just the two you normally would.

R�senfeld
so if you guys want to deal damage that could actually help

Drufle (GM)
For blessing+warrior.

Drumun
1 bane for hammer then
right

R�senfeld
problem is we're both will users

Drumun
actually I have a better idea
I try to push him back down
that's an str roll right?

Drufle (GM)
Why not make an unbalancing attack?

H. Knight
yeah do that

Drumun
is that a thing?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.

H. Knight
like I just did

Drumun
what does that do?
attack and try to push over?

Drufle (GM)
You get one bane, but you knock them down if you succeed.

H. Knight
yep

Drufle (GM)
So you'd be rolling neutral.

Drumun
right so I'd have no boons
welp, here we go

R�senfeld
yeah, you know, i fast turn and denounce him

H. Knight
okl et him do that firs

Drufle (GM)
Well wait your turn, fella.

Drumun
Russ first then?

Drufle (GM)
Denouncing won't help Drumun.

H. Knight
ok

Drumun
oh kay

R�senfeld
yup
i shall wit

Drumun
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 0d6k1( 20 )+2+() = 22
HOOO BOY

Drufle (GM)
Ah.

Drumun
STRONG

Drufle (GM)
That's uh.
Huh.
Well back to the ground he goes.
This is with what weapon?

Drumun
4d6 damage
Warhammer

Drufle (GM)
4d6 it is then.

Drumun
rolling 4d6( 2 + 3 + 2 + 6 ) = 13

Drufle (GM)
Karunch.

Drumun sweeps his hammer at the Highpriest's legs and trips him over

Drumun
stay on the ground fool

Drufle (GM)
All that armor ain't doing much for him.

H. Knight
this is the first damage he's taken actually

Drumun
"Ye need a timeout!"

Drufle (GM)
No, he took that damage from spectral grasp.
Granted it was 2 hp.

Drumun
he took damage from roy

H. Knight
oh right

Drufle (GM)
Ruse? Your go.

R�senfeld
denounce

Drufle (GM)
Will roll, one boon.

R�senfeld
will with one boon?
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 1d6k1 ( 12 )+2+( 2 ) = 16

Drufle (GM)
A hit!

R�senfeld
oh god
EYS

Drumun
woo!

R�senfeld
yes*

Drufle (GM)
Did you really think he had more than 16 will?

Drumun
HYES

R�senfeld
well I have 12 and I'm not a grand inquisitor

H. Knight
yes

Drufle (GM)
He's a high inquisitor, not a god.
None of his stats are above 14.

R�senfeld
or high inquisitor, whichever

H. Knight
low brackets eh

Drufle (GM)
Anyway, he makes his rolls with a bane for this round.
HK? Roy?

Roy
lets add another

H. Knight
are there aimed strikes for melee?
I want to use my lance to stab him in his magic hand

Roy
rolling 1d20 + 3 + 1d6k1( 12 )+3+( 3 ) = 18

Drufle (GM)
Unfortunately, no.

H. Knight
darn

Drufle (GM)
Which is weird.

Drumun
this poor guy

Drufle (GM)
Well he takes 1d3 damage.
Roll that.

Roy
rolling 1d3( 1 ) = 1
LMAO

Drufle (GM)
Now he has 2 banes on his rolls.

Drumun
tiny grabby hands

Drufle (GM)
HK, I'll let you do it.

Drumun
actually, can we swipe his sword?

R�senfeld
both for one round only?

H. Knight
okay!

Drufle (GM)
But remember an aimed shot has 2 banes.

H. Knight
ok so neutral roll

Drumun
wait
Russ still has his prayer thingy right?

Drufle (GM)
Uh, yeah.

Drumun
can he just T-action to give that to HK?

Drufle (GM)
We should really be remembering that.
Yeah roll with one boon then.

Drumun
I feel like we reeeeally want to stop this guy's magic

R�senfeld
yeah sorry it's just not staying in my head

H. Knight
"target acquired."
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 1d6k1 ( 16 )+2+( 1 ) = 19

R�senfeld
also remember when golurk said we shouldn't kill him
is that something we can do?

Drufle (GM)
That's a hit.

Drumun
you can declare non-lethal damage when you attack

H. Knight
yeah that's this

Drufle (GM)
Remember subduel damage gives you a bane.

H. Knight
oh right
so it would be neutral

Drufle (GM)
Since, you know, it's hard not to kill someone with a killing blow.

H. Knight
eh whatever he's got the health

Drufle (GM)
You hit anyway, even with that bane.

H. Knight
oh do I?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.

H. Knight
well let's see what the damage is

Drumun
18 def at most then

H. Knight
rolling 3d6 + 1( 3 + 5 + 2 )+1 = 11

Drufle (GM)
Alright, I'm tracking subduel damage now.

Drumun
his hand is like...gone

Drufle (GM)
When it reaches his current hp total he collapses.

H. Knight
"I have had enough of your tricks."

R�senfeld
let's see those 2 banes

H. Knight runs the fucking lance through his hand

Drufle (GM)
Alright, you asked for it.

Drumun
slow turns?
did we all go fast?

Drufle (GM)
He gets his fast turn!

Drumun
its an action to stand up though

Drufle (GM)
Oh right he's on the ground.
Well sure he gets a slow turn then.

R�senfeld
hm

Drufle (GM)
Which is fine.
Because you all took fast turns.

Drumun
I mean it doesn't really matter in this case

Drufle (GM)
So he goes next anyway.

R�senfeld
it increases the number of actions?

Drufle (GM)
He stands up once more, his left hand mangled and bleeding.

Roy
poor guy

Drumun
getting up is a move action
I think

R�senfeld
i suppose it's only fair, GM makes concessions for us all the time

H. Knight
"I am surprised at your resolve."

Drufle (GM)
Glaring at HK, shivering from the denouncement, shadowy hands grasping at his armor...
He takes a swing.
rolling d20+4-3d6k1 ( 5 )+4-( 2 + 3 + 6 ) = 3
Wow.

Drumun
not happening

Drufle (GM)
Way to go, buddy.

Drumun
doesn't even hit

R�senfeld
3 banes?

H. Knight
limply taps my chestplate

Drumun
he is in bad shape

Drufle (GM)
He has one bane normally anyway.

H. Knight
or drumun

R�senfeld
oh.

H. Knight
it's unclear

Drufle (GM)
Since, you know, cumbersome weapon.
Top of the round!

R�senfeld
debuffs re good in this

Drumun
knock him back down again?

Drufle (GM)
His debuffs are gone, and this is your last turn of blessing!
Who all is going fast?

R�senfeld
i think i'll go slow, use a minor action to reload( is that right?), move, and non-lethal ire at him?

Drumun
I can do an unbalancing attack again

Roy
im going slow

R�senfeld
can i do that?
'ire'
non-lethal ireland at him

Drufle (GM)
Uhhh, reloading is an action.

R�senfeld
shoot.

Drufle (GM)
You can't reload and fire in the same turn unless you're one of those special paths that can do that.
Also I think it's safe to say that you can't do nonlethal damage with a gun.

R�senfeld
that would be too convenient wouldn't it
why? i can shoot out his feet

Drufle (GM)
I suppose that's true.

Drumun
not non lethal really...

Drufle (GM)
That would be an aimed shot though.
So you would have two banes.

H. Knight
tey and shoot his sword hand

R�senfeld
ah.

Drumun
there arn't many places you can shoot him and keep him alive

R�senfeld
well fuggit then
what should I do, team?

Drufle (GM)
So Roy is slow, who's going fast?

Drumun
I'll knock him down again
unbalancing attack and all that

H. Knight
I think perhaps heal us who need it

R�senfeld
i can denounce one moer time

Drumun
how many prayers does Russ get?

Drufle (GM)
Roll with one boon, Drumun.

R�senfeld
ore i can heal but that healing kind of sucks

H. Knight
he can't (i hope) hit roy anymore

Drufle (GM)
He gets a prayer every round.
It's OP as hell.

Drumun
hmmm, save it for HK
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 1d6k1 ( 1 )+2+( 5 ) = 8
oh noooooo

Drufle (GM)
Yikes.

Drumun
swing and a miss

Drufle (GM)
Ah well.
HK? Ruse?

Drumun swings his hammer, wiffs, and spins in a circle

R�senfeld
not sure what to dooo

Drufle (GM)
Burning Beam!

Drumun
More debuffs?

H. Knight
laser eyes!

Drufle (GM)
You have an actual attacking spell that ignores his armor, use it!

R�senfeld
yeah why not
fast turn for it then?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah
Will roll with one boon.

R�senfeld
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 1d6k1( 2 )+2+( 5 ) = 9
damnit.

Drufle (GM)
Awww.

Drumun
:(

Drufle (GM)
HK! Take him out!

Drumun
our luck's run out

Drufle (GM)
Quickly!

Drumun
yeah, go for the kill

R�senfeld
sad times

H. Knight
alright enough foolin around

Drufle (GM)
You have three boons, use them!

R�senfeld
that's the hed of my church there

Drumun
we are sitting ducks without blessing

R�senfeld
corrupted and mad

Drufle (GM)
Well, he isn't actually the head of the church.

R�senfeld
blessing is still in effect

Drufle (GM)
That'd be the Matriarch.

Drumun
yeah, but hti sis the last turn

R�senfeld
oh..
should really read my stuff
it is? blimey.
yeah go for the kill lol

Drufle (GM)
He's just, you know, the head of the Inquisition.

H. Knight
still 2 boons for regular attack?

Drufle (GM)
A third, if Ruse uses prayer.

R�senfeld
I sure do

R�senfeld prays like a madman

H. Knight
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 3d6k1( 15 )+2+( 6 + 1 + 5 ) = 23

Drufle (GM)
Well.
Axe?

Drumun
oh lord please guide this giant robot centaurs lance into the heart of our enemies

H. Knight
yes

Drufle (GM)
4d6+1.

H. Knight
just askin
is the +1d6 thing a universal for +20?

Drufle (GM)
No.
That's a warrior thing.

Drumun
its Warrior only

H. Knight
ok just for forceful strikers
so why did Roy get one

Drumun
though some spells have that attached

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.

H. Knight
ah right
okay then

Drufle (GM)
Some spells have special "crit" things.
Spectral grasp just happens to do +1d6.

H. Knight
rolling 4d6 + 1( 4 + 4 + 2 + 4 )+1 = 15

Drumun
yikes

Drufle (GM)
Yikes.
Nonlethal?

R�senfeld
lol
look at the altar

H. Knight
sure
hehehe

Drumun
oh right...the altar

Drufle (GM)
He is not looking very good.

Drumun
PRAY

Drufle (GM)
He takes his fast turn!
He's going to, once again, swing his sword at HK!

Drumun
"Ye can still stop"
"It dun have to end like this"

Drufle (GM)
rolling 1d20+4-2d6k1( 6 )+4-( 6 + 6 ) = 4

H. Knight
"if he wants to fight and die then that is his own decision"

Drufle (GM)
Rats.

Drumun
welp

R�senfeld
i think he can't, or a full-blown fucking fairy or something wouldh ave alerted him to his faults?

Drufle (GM)
Where'd all that luck that I'm supposed to have go.

H. Knight
"unless he is possessed. I don't have the means to tell"

Drufle (GM)
Roy, you're up.

Roy
surprise
i use spell recovery

Drumun
"Possessed?"

Drufle (GM)
Gasp!

Drumun
oh noooo
or...OH HYES

H. Knight
"just a hunch, drumun"

Drufle (GM)
I was wondering if you would ever use that.

Drumun
more grabby hands?

Drufle (GM)
Alright, top of the round, then.

R�senfeld
what does that do?

Roy
i recover the casting of summon

Drumun
ooooh

R�senfeld
ah

Roy
and heal ..3?

Drufle (GM)
It gives her one casting back and she heals her rate.
Yep.

Drumun
we can flank with the shard right?

Drufle (GM)
The blessing is gone!

H. Knight
oh noo

Drufle (GM)
And yeah, you can flank with the shard.

R�senfeld
s'alright, we can do this

Drufle (GM)
Who's going fast?

Drumun
Roy put the shard on the other side of the priest from HK
give him flank bonuses

Roy
is flanking really a thing

Drumun
I did it

H. Knight
he smacked demon ass

Drufle (GM)
I'm pretty sure it isn't, but I'm giving you a hand.

H. Knight
you're a kind soul

Drufle (GM)
I mean, this was technically a diff 100 combat.

Drumun
wait, is it not a thing?
well thank you kindly

Roy
you probably wont need it

Drumun
oh shit yes really thank

Roy
the shard

Drumun
it doesn't hurt to have him out

H. Knight
it can be a substitute

Drumun
Minikyu used Substitute

Drufle (GM)
Well if anyone is going fast, you should go ahead.

Roy
i bring out the shard

Drumun
he returns

R�senfeld
i don't knwo if there's anything i can do in a fast turn
oh wait i did
i tried beam

H. Knight
I'mma hack im

R�senfeld
right/

Roy
"Hello, darkness! My old friend."

Drufle (GM)
Burning beam was last turn.
You can use it again if you so wish.

R�senfeld
failed casts don't cast towards my counter?

Drufle (GM)
They do.

Roy
"Spare him from death, won't you?"

Drufle (GM)
But you have two castings.

R�senfeld
it's rank 1

Drufle (GM)
Oh wait is it?

R�senfeld
yeah

H. Knight
"I can't make any promises this time, young miss."

Drufle (GM)
Nah man Burning Beam is 0.

R�senfeld
well it is on my sheet
doi
alright then
BURNING BEAM!
with no boon

Drumun

Drufle (GM)
Will roll!

R�senfeld
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 0d6k1( 10 )+2+() = 12

Drufle (GM)
A hit!

R�senfeld
AIGHT!

Drufle (GM)
1d6 damage.

R�senfeld
rolling 1d6( 3 ) = 3

Drufle (GM)
Aaaand he's unconscious.

R�senfeld
YUS!

H. Knight
wow!

Drumun
wooo

Drumun breaths a sigh of relief

Drufle (GM)
The beam strikes Tormond in the head, and he falls to the ground.

Drumun then turns and sees the shard

Drumun
"WHAAH!! What is that!?"

R�senfeld collapses on the floor in relief and adrenaline come down

Drufle (GM)
Tormond coughs and sputters, his left hand still bleeding.

H. Knight stands unmoving

Drumun
"..."

High Inquisitor Tormond
"My... my lady..."

Roy
can i put the shard over his head

Drumun shakes his head, and takes a deep breath

H. Knight
"save your prayers for later. You will need them then."

Drumun kneels

R�senfeld
"Tormond."
do i have another minor heal?
is it smart to minor heal?

H. Knight holds a hand out to Drumun

Drufle (GM)
You have one, yes.

Drumun
save it in case he starts dieing

R�senfeld
right

Drumun
"I am well, HK..."
"Just..."

Drufle (GM)
Blood gushes from his hand, and his visor falls open.

H. Knight
"you don't sound well"
High Inquisitor Tormond looks up at HK, his eyes glowing with an unearthly aura.

Drumun
"Perhaps not...but its not me who ye should be worried fer"

Drumun motions towards Russ

H. Knight glowers down

High Inquisitor Tormond
"Everything I've done, I did for him. I regret nothing."

Roy
'Who?"

R�senfeld
"You served the Shadow."

High Inquisitor Tormond
"I am... the righteous... his one true Hand..."
High Inquisitor Tormond coughs up blood.

H. Knight readies his axe

Drumun
"Ah think...ye were decieved"

R�senfeld kneels beside Tormond

H. Knight
"we will get nothing out of this wretch."

Drumun
"Let him make his peace, HK"

R�senfeld
"What is wrong with you?"
can't I make any checks

Drufle (GM)
Will's fine.

R�senfeld
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 0d6k1( 2 )+2+() = 4
yeah
not happening

High Inquisitor Tormond
"My life... for the New God."

Drumun
I don't think Drumun has any chance of helping here

Roy's Summon
[caresses his face with its tendrils]

H. Knight
cute

Drumun
Mimikyu pls

R�senfeld
creepy as hell
High Inquisitor Tormond yanks a dagger from his belt.

R�senfeld
i love it
agi check?

H. Knight
I doubt it

R�senfeld
a shame
he's gonna kill himself ain't he

Drumun
I think I know where this is going
High Inquisitor Tormond plunges it into his neck.

R�senfeld
"Tormond!"

Drumun begins to move after seeing the dagger, but is too late

Drumun
"..."

Drumun stands up

Drufle (GM)
A black smoke leaks from the wound, crackling and obscuring.

R�senfeld stands up as well - and prays for tormond's immortal soul's salvation

Drumun waits a moment, and then tries to pick up a body

R�senfeld
uh oh

Drufle (GM)
A giggle is heard, and the smoke dissipates.

Drumun
"This is no place for the dead..."

H. Knight
"As I expected."

R�senfeld
"So the Evil infests even my home and hearth."

Drufle (GM)
rolling 1d3( 1 ) = 1

Drumun
"Russ..."

Drufle (GM)
You have 10 seconds, if you wish to save him.

R�senfeld
how do I do it?

Drumun
oh shit, heal hea heal

R�senfeld
yes
totally do
minor heal

Drumun
this guy must have a huge heal rate

Drufle (GM)
The wound on his left hand staunches, and the gash in his throat quivers and closes.

R�senfeld
i'll take any heal rate at this point

R�senfeld appears to focus deeply

Drufle (GM)
He gasps, air rushing into his lungs, and his eyes open for a brief moment, before returning to sleep.

Drumun
"I take it...yer gonna wanna carry him out"

R�senfeld
"We can't just leave him here.'
can i carry him?
i think it would be appropriate

Roy's Summon
"I'm curious."

Drumun
"Ye do so...I'll handle these ones"

H. Knight
in his full plate? you wish :P

Roy's Summon
oop

R�senfeld
if he's not too beefy or me

Drufle (GM)
Make a strength roll, but he's big.

R�senfeld
rolling 1d20 + -1 + 0d6k1( 4 )+-1+() = 3

Drufle (GM)
Wow.

Roy
"I'm curious."

Drufle (GM)
How about HK take him.

H. Knight sits down

R�senfeld
"RRRRAh -ow I pulled a muscle."

Roy
"Would he, 'return to normal'?"

Drumun
"We kin hope"

Roy
"I wonder what was normal, for an inquisitor."

H. Knight
"be sensible, Rusenfeld"

Drumun
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 0d6k1( 7 )+2+() = 9
okay so I'm not lifting these guys either

R�senfeld
"I don't think whatever was compelling him is there anymore - but I also don't believe he cn come back from this."

Roy
"Will he do what he has always done?"

R�senfeld
"The inquisition used to be a holy order."

H. Knight
"I cannot imagine the persecution of the Orcs will cease for this. It certainly began before this demon infestation."

R�senfeld
"You would have me kill human being, then for actions not his own?"

H. Knight
"perhaps for as long as men and orcs have lived side by side."

Drumun
"We have courts an laws..."

H. Knight
"I cannot demand anything of you. If I were in your position, however, I would not take the chance."

R�senfeld
"You are not."

H. Knight
"still I will carry him if you so wish."

R�senfeld
"...Please."

H. Knight
everyone just lift him on
all together now!

R�senfeld
HUP!
i help you with my little weakling muscles
how do i even shoot my rifle with those things
without falling on my butt

Roy
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 0d6k1( 7 )+2+() = 9

Drumun lifts the guy up

H. Knight
strong glutes

Drufle (GM)
Man, you all suck at lifting.

Drumun
rolling 1d20 + 2 + 0d6k1( 11 )+2+() = 13

R�senfeld
bro do you even lift

Drufle (GM)
It's a good thing you guys have a horse.

H. Knight
Drufle please

Drumun
HUPH

H. Knight
aren't there collective actions

Drufle (GM)
That's a new rule, but yeah.

H. Knight
huh

R�senfeld
neat

Drufle (GM)
I think they're called cooperative actions.

R�senfeld
loot bodies anyone?

Drufle (GM)
Anyway, as the music may signify.
That is the end of level 2.

H. Knight
hurray! we all lived

Drumun
I won't be doing much looting

R�senfeld
yeah maybe ruse is too shaken up too
for once

Drumun
moreso I will be spending my time carrying out these corpses
give them a proper burial

H. Knight
oh yeah
the rest
forgot about those

Drufle (GM)
The acolytes don't really have anything of interest on them.

R�senfeld
this was really exhilerating

Drufle (GM)
In fact, the only real thing of interest in the room would be Tormond's greatsword.
ooooh!!

R�senfeld
that's his though

H. Knight
aw well

Drufle (GM)
It's a beast of a thing, a pure silver enchanted blade with +1 damage.

R�senfeld
oh man

H. Knight
russ is here

Drumun
it would not be proper

R�senfeld
ruse can't be a thief when he's super sad

H. Knight
pure silver is awful for anything like a sword
what about the altar?

Drufle (GM)
In this world it's actually perfectly fine.

H. Knight
search there

Drufle (GM)
Because reasons.

H. Knight
cool

R�senfeld
enchants well

Drufle (GM)
The altar has the word PRAYER inscribed on it.

R�senfeld
like minecraft gold
hahaha

Drufle (GM)
(it doesn't actually say that)

R�senfeld
that's canon now

Drufle (GM)
The altar is covered with numerous runes and magical circles of various origins.

Drumun
it says "PRAY HERE" instead

R�senfeld
i better investigate it

H. Knight
you guys go inspecting I gotta
carry a corpse
down a flight of stairs
hoo boy

Drumun
oh right, if this is the end of level 2

Drufle (GM)
It's not a corpse!

Drumun
then its time for voting

Drufle (GM)
He's still alive.

H. Knight
sorry
my mistake

Drufle (GM)
:P

H. Knight
he will be if he slides off though!

Drufle (GM)
Probably yeah.
H'es only at 11 hp.

R�senfeld
urk
that's risky haha

Drumun
I'll just spend my time moving these corpses out
no time for looting

R�senfeld
man, voting or expert paths?
for

H. Knight
you wull be SO exhausted
*will

Drumun
yes I will be

Drufle (GM)
I think it's gonna be a wee bit late for Golurk at the moment.

Drumun
not sure if he's even awake anymore

Drufle (GM)
It's, like, quarter after 3 for him.

R�senfeld
well how about we do all the clerical stuff next session then?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah he hasn't said anything in a while he might've actually fallen asleep.

H. Knight
yes
let's call it here

R�senfeld
well done everyone

Roy
helo

Drufle (GM)
Oh.

Drumun
that went shockingly well

R�senfeld
yeah like

Drufle (GM)
He is still awake.

Drumun
like I honestly expected everything to fall apart

R�senfeld
that beginning was insane

Drumun
but we just ruined this boss fight

H. Knight
tell me all about the start later

Drufle (GM)
That google hangout was right, I really can't just send a few big guys at you.

R�senfeld
you were there really
aaaanyway

Drufle (GM)
I need to do like one big guy and like 6 little guys.

Drumun
you had 1 big guy and 1 little-ish guy

H. Knight
I apologise for being late as well
and one hammer

Drufle (GM)
They were the same difficulty!
Technically.

R�senfeld
nah it's cool man how many times have i done that to you

Drumun
you got here just in time HK

R�senfeld
also yeah you got here for thegood part :)

H. Knight
:)

Drufle (GM)
So yeah we'll do the expert vote next time then.

R�senfeld

Drufle (GM)
As well as go over the ramifications of this novice path.

H. Knight
hexcellent

Drumun

Drufle (GM)
Y'all can head out now.

R�senfeld

Drumun
