G'hesh Nhot picks up and holds ???

Rochelle Gwerm
"Bar run!"

G'hesh Nhot
"mine"

Aerlin
"That does sound fun."

G'hesh Nhot
BEER
now?

Aerlin
"We've had a hard day after all, we deserve a rest."

Rochelle Gwerm
"Rest and a drink"
"mostly drink"

Drufle (GM)
(i went to take a quick break)
So, are we just going to do this?

Rochelle Gwerm
of course

G'hesh Nhot
yes

Navaya
"I'll pass, alcohol doesn't work so good when you're 1 foot tall."

G'hesh Nhot
??? is being carried by me

Rochelle Gwerm
"Not with that attitude!"

G'hesh Nhot
pixie drink

Drufle (GM)
Alright then, session 4 begins with an impromptu bar crawl in a town with 1 pub.

Aerlin
I'm glad it even has one.

G'hesh Nhot
with eggcup

??? Man
"WHAT IS THIS INSOLENCE PUT ME DOWN"

Aerlin
"We're off to have fun."

Rochelle Gwerm
"Man, relaaaax, haven't you ever been to a pub before?"

Anevia Tirablade is giggling furiously.

Aerlin
"You love fun, I'm sure."

G'hesh Nhot
"friend"

Aerlin
"Everyone loves fun..."

G'hesh Nhot
drink

??? Man
"I WILL NOT BE MANHANDLED IN SUCH A FASHION IN A TOWN OF INGRATES"

G'hesh Nhot does not understand words

Rochelle Gwerm
"If you didn't make such a huff about going here we wouldn't of had to"

G'hesh Nhot
"he talk funny"

Aerlin
"I'll buy you a drink, question marks Man."

Rochelle Gwerm
"This is like...a business outing"

??? Man continues yelling and grumbling all the way to the tiny pub.

G'hesh Nhot starts to walk to pub

Rochelle Gwerm enters the pub

Aerlin
I'm gonna roll that influence now.

Drufle (GM)
Go ahead, I suppose.

G'hesh Nhot
"me help"

Aerlin
That's...13.

Drufle (GM)
Uh huh.

Rochelle Gwerm
I'm guessing we roll to resist getting drunk?

Drufle (GM)
He is not persuaded by your niceties.

G'hesh Nhot
good cop, big brute roll

Aerlin
Right go ahead large ones.

G'hesh Nhot
the play nice or he gets you one

Drufle (GM)
Yeah, this "beer" they're serving is some kind of fungal-based grain alcohol.

Aerlin
It's very interesting.

Drufle (GM)
It'll fuck you up good if you drink too quickly.

G'hesh Nhot
.....
woops

Rochelle Gwerm dumps an entire glass down her throat

G'hesh Nhot
beer gone

Drufle (GM)
I'd make fort saves, both of you.

Rochelle Gwerm
you know that trick where you just open your throat and dump it?
that's what just happened

Drufle (GM)
Pffft.
Alright, Sleight of Hand then.

Aerlin
Aerlin's a slow drinker. It's cheaper if you take your time anyway.
Rochelle Gwerm:
Rochelle Gwerm : Fortitude
Save: 12

Aerlin
And more fun.

Drufle (GM)
Oh, you're drinking it.

Aerlin
Drink responsibly!

G'hesh Nhot
i cannot find it

Drufle (GM)
I'll call that a "You're pretty friggin' buzzed."

Rochelle Gwerm
its under defenses

Drufle (GM)
It's a +4, if you just want to roll it.

Rochelle Gwerm

Rochelle Gwerm
"I'll have another"

Drufle (GM)
Nhot's fine.

G'hesh Nhot

Drufle (GM)

??? man is also perfectly fine with this.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Drink, fancy man, its good"

"Gah, this is deplorable! Who would make a beverage from fungus!"
G'hesh Nhot:
G'hesh Nhot : Fortitude
Save: 24 MORE

Drufle (GM)
Well alright.

Rochelle Gwerm
a second drink, I take it?

Aerlin
Can I roll to see if i know who would make a beverage from fungus

Rochelle Gwerm
what happens if I keep drinking while drunk?

Drufle (GM)
Nhot is just chugging down entire pitches of Mushbeer.
You'll have penalties to future fort saves, Rochelle.

Aerlin
aerlin is the biggest know it all

Drufle (GM)
And go ahead, Aerlin.

Rochelle Gwerm
so I should just hold out?

Aerlin
13 + 10 for Society i guess

Drufle (GM)
Maybe, like, Society?
Wow ok.

G'hesh Nhot
that was a crit, did i just drink a barrel?

Aerlin
another 13...

Drufle (GM)
Basically, yeah Nhot.

Aerlin
Not a great sign.

Rochelle Gwerm
our usual luck, it seems

G'hesh Nhot
beer good

Drufle (GM)
Aerlin, you figure this is some kind of triple-distilled beverage made from the fancy glowing blue fungus coating most of the cave.
Without any grain or fruit to ferment, they went with this stuff.

Aerlin
I'm going to say all that to ??? Man
He'll love it

Rochelle Gwerm
pffft

G'hesh Nhot
?me belches loud enough to make the table rattle

Drufle (GM)
It's actually pretty good, hints of stone and blue.

G'hesh Nhot does as i said above

Drufle (GM)
Not blueberry, the color blue.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Damn, dragon lady, I'm impressed"

Aerlin
I love blue.
Obviously.

G'hesh Nhot
beer good

Drufle (GM)
It's the flavor of that blue gatorade.

??? Man
"Well clearly there's effort behind the drink, and I'll admit it's quite creative, but still, fungus!"
G'hesh Nhot:
G'hesh Nhot : Fortitude
Save: 17

??? Man
"What a horrendous decision on their part."

G'hesh Nhot
still good

Drufle (GM)
Nhot shows no signs of slowing down.

Aerlin
"At least they picked blue."

Rochelle Gwerm
burning all her luck now I see

Drufle (GM)
The bartender is getting concerned.

G'hesh Nhot looks at bartender

G'hesh Nhot
"your drink good"

Aerlin
Are you all going to do the influencing anytime soon?

Rochelle Gwerm
"So, mystery fancy man, you never did give us your name"
he's not drunk and he doesn't like it, is the problem

Aerlin
There she goes.

Drufle (GM)
The bartender kinda nods his head, a bit frightened.
Rochelle Gwerm:
Rochelle Gwerm : Influence
Check 18
-1 to Bluff checks
+4 to Intimidate

G'hesh Nhot
fuck

Drufle (GM)
My god, someone finally beat his DC.

Rochelle Gwerm
"We've knooown each other for a while now"

Aerlin
We did it!

Drufle (GM)
It only took four sessions.

G'hesh Nhot
just took some alcohol

Rochelle Gwerm
"it couldn't hurt to tell now, ya?"

Aerlin
This is truly the real super power of teamwork.

Rochelle Gwerm
Rochelle is powered by the Blue Booze

??? Man sips on the Mushbeer and growls.

G'hesh Nhot growls back

Rochelle Gwerm
don't growl in front of the dragon lady

??? Man
"You've done good work keeping me out of trouble, and I admit your efforts have been above average."

Rochelle Gwerm
"I should hope so"
"I am probably the strongest woman you'll ever meet"
it is revealed
at long last

Horgus Gwerm
"Alright, fine. I am Horgus, of house Gwerm."

Rochelle Gwerm
"House of...Gwerm?"

Horgus Gwerm
"Now please stop pestering me."

Rochelle Gwerm
"Huh...my mother's maiden name was Gwerm"

G'hesh Nhot
"pest, where

Rochelle Gwerm
"Funny coincidence"

Horgus Gwerm
"I'm sure."

Rochelle Gwerm
"Well I guess it was her...current family name...my dad didn't have one"

Aerlin
they're SIBLINGS?!?!?

Rochelle Gwerm
"Not that she would have taken it"
"My dad was an asshole"

G'hesh Nhot goes to find more barrels

Rochelle Gwerm
"Also dead"

Horgus Gwerm is distinctly ignoring the party, entranced by the Blue.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Is Gwerm a common name?"
G'hesh Nhot:
G'hesh Nhot : Fortitude
Save: 18

Drufle (GM)
rolling d20+2( 20 )+2 = 22
holy shit

Rochelle Gwerm
holy

Aerlin
See, he loves the blue.

Rochelle Gwerm
Horgus is holding out

Aerlin
They always come around to the blue.

Horgus Gwerm starts knocking back Mushbeers to try and lose his sense of hearing.

G'hesh Nhot has finished off the last of the beer

Aerlin
Aerlin has finished her one glass after 2 hours, so she's going to call it a night.

G'hesh Nhot
see roll above

Drufle (GM)
The bartender is very confused and also somewhat impressed.

Rochelle Gwerm
"I always wondered where my mom's side of the family was..."

Drufle (GM)
He asks if you'd like to close out your tab now.

Rochelle Gwerm enters deep thought, but is too drunk to figure things out

G'hesh Nhot looks at bartender

Aerlin
Aerlin already left.
Gone.
Just...sayin.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Yeah, it'd be good to close it now"

G'hesh Nhot
"tab"

Rochelle Gwerm
"Before I...pass out or somethin"

Horgus Gwerm tosses a small pouch of coins onto the counter and waddles out the front door.

G'hesh Nhot wants to find more beer

Rochelle Gwerm
she's Nhot done yet

Drufle (GM)
The bartender is too shocked by the amount of cash in the pouch to hear any complaints about more alcohol.

G'hesh Nhot
beer good, but weak

Rochelle Gwerm
did he just...pay everyone's tabs?

G'hesh Nhot
have stronger?

Drufle (GM)
There's like a hundred gp in the pouch.

Rochelle Gwerm
that is a lot more than beer costs

Drufle (GM)
He just paid off your tabs, along with the tabs for the next few thousand customers.

G'hesh Nhot
STRONGER

Rochelle Gwerm
wow

Aerlin
Rich people don't know what anything costs.

Drufle (GM)
"What's a banana cost, ten dollars?"

G'hesh Nhot goes to bartender

Rochelle Gwerm
I think its more of a case of 100 gp being just...nothing to the rich

Aerlin
Yeah just what i was thinking.

G'hesh Nhot
"stronger beer"

Drufle (GM)
The bar is entirely out of alcohol.

Rochelle Gwerm
wut

Drufle (GM)
Mushbeer is the only thing they serve.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Nhot, buddy, I think you cleaned them out"

Aerlin
I spend the morning time making an Animate Rope scroll, also, I go shopping for some rope.

G'hesh Nhot
BBEEEEEEEEER

Aerlin
Unrelated, honest.

Rochelle Gwerm
pffft

Aerlin
No connection there.
How much does rope cost...?

Rochelle Gwerm
"C'mon Nhot, unless you want to wrestle or something we should head back"

Drufle (GM)
A piddling amount, I'm sure.

G'hesh Nhot
FIGHT

Rochelle Gwerm
"I figured as much"
"Les find a place outside and we can train...or something"

Aerlin
It's 1gp for 50ft

G'hesh Nhot leaves to fight

Rochelle Gwerm stumbles out with Nhot

Drufle (GM)
So, uh, do we go meet the village leader now?

Rochelle Gwerm
I mean

Drufle (GM)
Or should we let the kids sober up a bit.

G'hesh Nhot
yes, fight

Rochelle Gwerm
let me sober up

Aerlin
If anyone else wanteed to do something with their morning...

G'hesh Nhot
me not drunk

Aerlin
I'm done, though.

Rochelle Gwerm
I have 10 GP and nothing to spend it on at the moment
oh god we're going to have to cross the lake again aren't we?
nooooo

Drufle (GM)
I mean, he's on the island.
Obviously.

G'hesh Nhot
ghesh paddle

Rochelle Gwerm
this is a future concern

Aerlin
You know what my solution is, Rochelle.

G'hesh Nhot
beer

Rochelle Gwerm
yes...
to both, really
confirmation and agreement

Aerlin
I just...really want to make you float.

Drufle (GM)
So whenever you're ready to talk to the chief, just say so.

Rochelle Gwerm
its going to make one hell of a dent when I land again

G'hesh Nhot
ready

Aerlin
Yeah, sure.

Rochelle Gwerm
lets gooooo

Drufle (GM)
Alright, Lann leads you up to a small hill, where a slightly larger hut sits.
He opens the door, and inside is sitting a rather bloated man.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Sooooo, who's this guy we're- oh"

G'hesh Nhot
food

Rochelle Gwerm
"There he is"

Drufle (GM)
Picture in telegram as usual.
He's dressed in rather simple clothing, cloth rags and some leather, the only sign of wealth or leadership a brooch with a bat and mushroom on it.

Rochelle Gwerm
oohhhhh
Chief Sull coughs a bit as he stands up.

G'hesh Nhot
beer

Chief Sull
"Greetings, uplanders. I've been told you saved my friends, yes?"

Rochelle Gwerm
well, at least Nhot has a second note to play
"Yep, that's us"

G'hesh Nhot nodds

Chief Sull
"Well thank you kindly for that, we need every man and woman we can have down here."
"I've also heard you know the cause of all these tremors and quakes?"

Rochelle Gwerm
"We got knocked down here because of them"
"Kenebras was attacked, full force"
"Some dragon got killed by a giant demon"

G'hesh Nhot
big fight
Chief Sull nods slowly.

Rochelle Gwerm
"things are kinda terrible up topside"
"At least the little we could see of it before we fell"

G'hesh Nhot
me want up to fight

Chief Sull
"Troubling news indeed, demons are our enemy as much as yours. We are descendants of the First Crusade, as you may know. We want demons dead just as you do."

G'hesh Nhot
fight demons to

Chief Sull
"In fact, I think it's time we did something about it. When you return to the surface, could you tell the authorities that we wish to join them in the battle?"

Aerlin
"We can certainly do that..."

Rochelle Gwerm
"Iiiiif there are any left"

Aerlin
"Do they know of your existence down here?"

Chief Sull
"I cannot be certain, but I feel that this is a time when allies of all kinds will be accepted."

Aerlin
"I should hope so. This mindless death and destruction has to stop."
Chief Sull nods.

G'hesh Nhot
?

Chief Sull
"The quickest way to the surface is via a path to the south out of Neathholm, but unfortunately there's a tribe of our kind that has betrayed us."

Rochelle Gwerm
"You want us to smash them?"

G'hesh Nhot
me sort them
which way

Chief Sull
"They have set up a small fortress in the path, and those traitors have banded up with some form of cult. If you eliminate them, and promise to bring my message to the surface, you are welcome to these."

G'hesh Nhot
fight
Chief Sull motions to a crate to his right, marked with the same symbol as his brooch.

G'hesh Nhot
FIGHT

Rochelle Gwerm
"You, sir, have a deal"

G'hesh Nhot lets out a huge battle cry

Rochelle Gwerm hefts her greatclub

Chief Sull
"I'm afraid that I cannot spare my own men for your journey, but hopefully these potions will aid you."

Aerlin
"Say, what is this symbol? I've seen it around a few places here."
G'hesh Nhot:
G'hesh Nhot : Perception
Check 18

Chief Sull
"Hm? Oh, the bat and mushroom? It's the insignia of my family, the current leaders of Neathholm."

G'hesh Nhot finaly sees symbol

Aerlin
"And you mentioned a cult? Do you know much about them?"

Chief Sull
"I'm afraid not. They appeared very recently, and they are terrible folk. Quite evil, indeed. They venerate some demon lord, although luckily I cannot tell which."

Aerlin
"Demons, huh. I wonder if there's a connection, here, then. Maybe we'll find out."

Rochelle Gwerm
"We won't know until we start breaking some bones! Lets go!"

Aerlin
I don't have any more questions.

G'hesh Nhot pulls out sword ready

Drufle (GM)
The crate contains 6 CLW potions and 3 potions of lesser restoration.

G'hesh Nhot
where fight

Aerlin
Cripes.

Rochelle Gwerm
neat

G'hesh Nhot
?

Aerlin
Let's dole these out.
I say 1 CLW each, and 2 to Rochelle?

Rochelle Gwerm
I am really not paying attention to the potions though I probably should

Drufle (GM)
(also are we really not going to give the statuette back to the man to whom it clearly belongs)

Rochelle Gwerm
don't you mean the brooch?

Aerlin
Oh right.

Drufle (GM)
Or brooch, whatever it was.

Rochelle Gwerm
well slight problem

G'hesh Nhot
no

Aerlin
Was Rochelle carrying it?

Rochelle Gwerm
remember who has it?
yeah that

Aerlin
Up to you, then.

Rochelle Gwerm
there's your answer right there

Drufle (GM)
Ah, ok, no free items for the party then.

Rochelle Gwerm
dang it
why would you say that

Drufle (GM)
Because I'm hoping I'll meta-force Rochelle to do a good thing.

Rochelle Gwerm
fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine

G'hesh Nhot
i have an idea

Drufle (GM)
Because, you know, this is kind of a Good campaign.

Rochelle Gwerm fishes out the brooch from her...pocket

Rochelle Gwerm
"Hey uh, we found this while we were down there"
"deeper in the caves and all"
"this wouldn't be yours would it?"
Chief Sull stares at the brooch in surprise, and his good eye starts tearing up.

Aerlin
what's the CL on these potions btw, just 1?

Chief Sull
"That... that would be my son's."

Rochelle Gwerm hands the brooch back

Rochelle Gwerm
"oh....oh...."

Aerlin
(it was on a dead body wasnt it)

G'hesh Nhot
he died well

Rochelle Gwerm
"Um...uh..."

Chief Sull
"He left a week ago after we had an argument, I had no idea he would be so rash."

Rochelle Gwerm
"Sorry...the owner wasn't...alive...when we..."
Chief Sull solemnly nods.

Aerlin
(rochelle whyd you have to be nice this is super sad)

Chief Sull
"I can't thank you enough for bringing this back to me."
"Here, let me give you something..."

Rochelle Gwerm
"I uh...know what its like to lose family"

G'hesh Nhot
my family die in arenas
Chief Sull walks back behind his throne, and pulls out a small glowing stone.

Aerlin
And I don't have a family, take THAT.
Well. Sort of.

Chief Sull
"This is a great treasure of Neathholm, a relic that our champions use to empower their weapons. I'd like you to have it."

Rochelle Gwerm
"Oh...uh...thank you"

Rochelle Gwerm accepts the magic stone thingy

Drufle (GM)
The gem, when added to a weapon, gives it a permanent +1 enhancement.

Rochelle Gwerm
well that's neat

G'hesh Nhot
??????

Rochelle Gwerm
does it require Good Alignment?

Drufle (GM)
Nope.

Rochelle Gwerm
okay good

G'hesh Nhot
fight now

Chief Sull
"I thank you all for helping us out down here. Go smash some traitors' skulls for me, hm?"

G'hesh Nhot nods

Rochelle Gwerm nods

Rochelle Gwerm
"I'll do that"

Drufle (GM)
So, how about that water?

Rochelle Gwerm
shiiiiit

G'hesh Nhot
fight big

Aerlin
You know what I want to do.

Rochelle Gwerm
yes
should I get drunk before or after?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah, we don't actually have to roleplay crossing the lake every time, it's not exactly a dangerous thing.

Aerlin
After.

Rochelle Gwerm
hrrrrg

Aerlin
Rochelle and I swap scales.
I tie her to the boat.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Uhhhh, uhhh"
"You sure this will work...for long enough?"

Drufle (GM)
Oh, and as thanks for the ridiculous amount of money and patronage he received, the bartender gives you his recipe for Mushbeer.

Rochelle Gwerm
"I really don't want to go in this water"
YES
MUSHBEER

G'hesh Nhot
beer

Aerlin
"It lasts for a good while."
"I think."

Rochelle Gwerm
now we can make our own

Aerlin
"I've never actually used it."

Rochelle Gwerm
"Do we have a backup plan or something?"

Aerlin
Is this river even that wide?
Anyway. Balloon.

Rochelle Gwerm
here we goooooo

Rochelle Gwerm uses the scale

Drufle (GM)
It is not actually very wide, no.

Aerlin
"Fantastic."
"Now, row! Row!"
We're across.
Let's reswap them scales.

Rochelle Gwerm falls hard into the ground when the scale wears off, leaving a dent

Drufle (GM)
Alright, how about we go actually start punching things.

Rochelle Gwerm
"I am never doing that again"

Aerlin
"It wasn't so bad."
"Thank you for trusting me, though."

G'hesh Nhot

He takes a free action to start shouting!

Aerlin
Ah, that's no good.

Rochelle Gwerm
"You really think your friends can help you?"

G'hesh Nhot shouts back

Drufle (GM)
Yyyyyikes.
You just pound him into the ground.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Woops"

Aerlin
Can you see anyone else coming?

Drufle (GM)
Init still goes though, since he alerted his friends.

G'hesh Nhot
so that's 1 in the wall and 1 in the ground?

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.

Rochelle Gwerm
not a bad start

Drufle (GM)
Want to move, Rochelle?
You still have a move.

Rochelle Gwerm
hmmm

G'hesh Nhot roars

G'hesh Nhot
i want more

Rochelle Gwerm
I'll take a step foward

G'hesh Nhot
i follow

Rochelle Gwerm
this is a door right?

Aerlin
Going down might help us get line of sight.

G'hesh Nhot
please

Rochelle Gwerm
its Nhot your turn yet

Drufle (GM)
It is, yes.

Rochelle Gwerm
Oh I'll go down here then

Aerlin
That's good.

Drufle (GM)
That's the door.

Rochelle Gwerm
is it small?

G'hesh Nhot
can someone move me

Drufle (GM)
All the doors are medium.

G'hesh Nhot
i actualy cannot see map

Rochelle Gwerm
Nhot you can't move until its your turn

Drufle (GM)
This is just very cramped.

Aerlin
You can double click the sheet's top bar to minimise it.

Drufle (GM)
After Rochelle is... Red!

Aerlin
Doesn't actually close it, I think.

G'hesh Nhot
no lag is magour

Drufle (GM)
I think Red is just going to move into a firing position back here.

G'hesh Nhot
wtf

Rochelle Gwerm
we'll try to give you the play by play

G'hesh Nhot
my fingers aint working

Drufle (GM)
By the way, for those moving around, if you hold ALT while moving a pog, it ignores the grid.

G'hesh Nhot
ive been keeping up. we have a great gm

Rochelle Gwerm
Red is right behind you now

Drufle (GM)
If you want to be less blocky about your movement.
After Red is Aerlin.

Rochelle Gwerm
oh yeah I guess this doesn't really adhere to a grid

Aerlin
I guess they're about to come through this door.

Rochelle Gwerm
put a trap maybe?

Aerlin
I do have rope.

G'hesh Nhot
fight

Rochelle Gwerm
don't be right in the line of fire though
if you have a thing you can like...toss or something

G'hesh Nhot
pixie?

Rochelle Gwerm
we're not throwing Navaya

Drufle (GM)
She probably would not appreciate that.

G'hesh Nhot
?
no fun

Aerlin
I'm gonna get that rope out, maybe we can stretch it across the door here.

Rochelle Gwerm
Animate Rope?

Aerlin
I could use that.
Animate's a standard action.
Then i moved just now.

Drufle (GM)
You still have your standard.

Rochelle Gwerm
I think they'll come out immediately

G'hesh Nhot
brb, toilet time

Rochelle Gwerm
so if you can't set this up in one turn then just hang back

Aerlin
Alright, I use Animate Rope and command it to stretch just under the door, and hold tight.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Wa-wait, what?"

Drufle (GM)
Alright, what's your DC for level 1 spells?
Is it like 16?

Aerlin
it is.

Rochelle Gwerm
GOLURK HAS RISEN!

Drufle (GM)
Alright, here comes the mook brigade.

Rochelle Gwerm

Drufle (GM)

Rochelle Gwerm

Golurk

Rochelle Gwerm

Drufle (GM)
Morning, Golurk.

Rochelle Gwerm
we're fighting cultists

Drufle (GM)
We're punching mongrelmen.

Rochelle Gwerm

Drufle (GM)
rolling d20+4( 20 )+4 = 24
HRAG

Rochelle Gwerm

Drufle (GM)
The first mongrelman heroically leaps over the tripwire and goes to bash Nhot.

Aerlin
Dang. Sick.

Drufle (GM)
rolling d20+4( 1 )+4 = 5
Wow.

Rochelle Gwerm
oh

Drufle (GM)
I just

Aerlin
He didn't stick the landing...

Rochelle Gwerm
can I just smack him for that
that was so bad

Drufle (GM)
I'm going to play fair and make him Critgen.

G'hesh Nhot
back
can i get a free swing at him?

Rochelle Gwerm
the critgen will tell

Drufle (GM)
Ok, he heroically leaps over the tripwire to try and smack Nhot, only to run into the barricade and get whiplashed so hard he's blinded.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Sorry buddy, but that was kinda pathetic"

Drufle (GM)
Who knows, maybe the second mongrelmen will do better.

Aerlin
Embarrassing.

Drufle (GM)
rolling d20+4( 14 )+4 = 18
He also leaps over the tripwire.

G'hesh Nhot prepares

Drufle (GM)
And uh.
Is a bit cramped.

Rochelle Gwerm
did the last round end?

Drufle (GM)
Not yet.

Rochelle Gwerm
so these guys are just dead last

Drufle (GM)
They come in at Initiative 0.

Rochelle Gwerm
okay

Drufle (GM)
He's gonna swing at Aerlin.

Aerlin
Oh boy!

Rochelle Gwerm
aw hell na

Drufle (GM)
rolling d20+4( 7 )+4 = 11

Rochelle Gwerm

Drufle (GM)

Aerlin
My AC is 11.

Rochelle Gwerm

Aerlin
Oofie.

Drufle (GM)
And now for the last boy!
rolling d20+4 ( 9 )+4 = 13
Ok, THIS one trips.

Rochelle Gwerm

Drufle (GM)
The rope slams itself around his ankles, and he is now entangled!

Aerlin
"Gah. Brute..."

Rochelle Gwerm
"Alright, which one of these three is getting pounded?"

G'hesh Nhot smirks

G'hesh Nhot

Aerlin
You know my vote.

Drufle (GM)
Alright, back to the top with... Navaya.

Aerlin
Hmm.

Rochelle Gwerm

rolling 1d1 ( 1 ) = 1

Aerlin
Oh, just in time.

G'hesh Nhot

Rochelle Gwerm

Aerlin
I was about to take your turn.
Go ahead.

Navaya
cool

Rochelle Gwerm
fiiiine, I'll hold off on it

G'hesh Nhot
can i hit the one that hit our little one

Drufle (GM)
Also congratulations to Mopp on getting here remarkable early.

Navaya
now what in god's name are we up against

Drufle (GM)
Three mongrelmen.

G'hesh Nhot
its all hiding behind my sheet

Rochelle Gwerm
piddly cultists

Aerlin
It's very cramped.

Navaya
are you sure these aren't crab=men

Rochelle Gwerm
Nhot, you can pop the sheet into a different window, unless that lags

Drufle (GM)
You all had a nice chat with the chief and drank a LOT with the bartender.
Yeah, that probably lags just as bad.

G'hesh Nhot
if i touch my sheet at all, even buttons i get lag

Rochelle Gwerm
is it better or worse than normal?
hmmm
that is an issue

Drufle (GM)
You should really get a cheatsheet made.

Aerlin
You should really just note the important figures.

Navaya
yeah P&P it up again

Aerlin
So handy.

Drufle (GM)
Seems like relying on the digital shield is dangerous.

G'hesh Nhot
i should but ive been rather busy

Aerlin
Relatable

Drufle (GM)
So Navaya, what kind of hex or spell or whatever do you want to use?

Navaya
gimme the lowdown
how's everyone doing?

Aerlin
This one is attacking me.

Drufle (GM)
Aerlin and Rochelle have both been hit once.

Navaya
and how sloshed am I

Rochelle Gwerm
Aerlin and Rochelle have taken damage so far

G'hesh Nhot
me drank a bar dry

Navaya
oof

Drufle (GM)
You drank nothing.

Navaya
alright

Aerlin
If you attack him, I can finish him, I'm sure.

Drufle (GM)
The middle guy is blinded, the right one is tied up by the ankles.

G'hesh Nhot
i kill another?

Rochelle Gwerm
probably kill the blind one

Drufle (GM)
The bottom one did like half of Aerlin's health in one hit.

Navaya
ok I'll hit the one Aerlin wants me to hit

G'hesh Nhot
i want the one that got past me

Drufle (GM)
...
That's uh.
A good point.
Nhot should've gotten an aoo against bottom boy.

G'hesh Nhot
oh good

Rochelle Gwerm
oh?

Drufle (GM)
He walked into and then out of her threatened area.
G'hesh Nhot:
G'hesh Nhot : Longsword (1H)
Longsword (1H) 20 vs AC
Damage 10
Tail Slap (Razored) 15 vs AC

Drufle (GM)
So she should be allowed to- yep alright.

Aerlin
She was too busy laughing at that other guy.

Rochelle Gwerm
yeah he doesn't get to attack
you didn't take damage afterall, Aerlin

G'hesh Nhot
seeya

Drufle (GM)
Aerlin's wounds retroactively heal as the mongrelman suddenly bursts into pieces.

Aerlin
Oh. That's disappointing. I wanted revenge.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Reality again, eh?"

G'hesh Nhot
yep

Aerlin
"I feel odd."

Navaya
"man, I musta drank _something_"

Drufle (GM)
So, the blinded one I guess.

Red Redford
what kind of cultists are they

Navaya
"considerin' what I just saw"

Drufle (GM)
These aren't cultists!
These are just bog-standard mongrelmen.

Navaya
they're just sewer mutants

Aerlin
Btw Navi your Evil Eye is a neat skill.

Rochelle Gwerm
they're part of a cult though

Navaya
yeah it is

Drufle (GM)
Evil Eye is sooooo good.

Aerlin
Fortune as well.

Drufle (GM)
Do you want to Evil Eye blind boy?

Navaya
may as well!

Drufle (GM)
What are you penalizing?

Navaya
AC I think

Drufle (GM)
Good idea.
Nhot, you're up.

G'hesh Nhot
wait they have an ac?

Rochelle Gwerm
:P

Drufle (GM)
Of course they have AC!
How rude.

G'hesh Nhot

Navaya glares daggers at one of the crabmen

Drufle (GM)
Both.

G'hesh Nhot

Drufle (GM)

Drufle (GM)

Rochelle Gwerm

G'hesh Nhot

Drufle (GM)
He isn't dead, but those are both hits.

Red Redford
why did they attack us anyway

Drufle (GM)
He has -4 to AC!

Navaya
is this the same one I glared at?
ah cool

Aerlin
We attacked them.
They're in the way.

Rochelle Gwerm
They've been bad

Aerlin
Also we got told to I guess.

G'hesh Nhot

Rochelle Gwerm
Hell, Rochelle is cool with that

Drufle (GM)
The chief requested that you get rid of the traitor mongrelmen.

G'hesh Nhot

Rochelle Gwerm
"In case you were hoping you had a chance of getting out of this"

Drufle (GM)
Well, that is just barely a hit.

Rochelle Gwerm
Wow they really have no AC

Drufle (GM)
Again, -4 to AC!

Navaya
I think the squid had more than they did

G'hesh Nhot
that one has -4

Rochelle Gwerm
even with that taken into account, their AC sucks

Navaya

Aerlin
Better than mine.

Drufle (GM)
They're CR 1, you can't ask much of them.
You evil eye'd two.

Red hears a low hissing from the upper right door, and a quiet shuffling from the lower right.

Aerlin

G'hesh Nhot wants to fight something

Red Redford
"There are some weird noises coming out of some of these doors..."

Rochelle Gwerm
"Anything out of this one?"

Aerlin
"We should remain quiet."

Navaya
"any of them sound friendly?"

Aerlin
A friendly hiss.

G'hesh Nhot
"FIGHT YOU COWARDS"

Drufle (GM)
The shuffling from the lower right stops.

Aerlin
Oh boy.

G'hesh Nhot 's voice echoes

Navaya
"of course the dragon does that..."

Red Redford
"Why this."

Rochelle Gwerm shrugs

Rochelle Gwerm
"Works for me"

Aerlin
"Do I have to use reverse psychology on you, Nhot?"

G'hesh Nhot

Aerlin
"I suppose you can handle whatever's through there, though."

Navaya
"she don't know those words, Aerlin"

Rochelle Gwerm
"So how we entering?"

G'hesh Nhot

G'hesh Nhot opens lower door

Rochelle Gwerm

Aerlin mentally makes out plans for a dragonshaped gag.

Someone was here very recently; strange footprints lead towards the rope ladder.

G'hesh Nhot roars in frustration at the lack of things to hit

Rochelle Gwerm
"is this a door I should break?"

Red Redford
"Calm down, you'll get your fill soon enough."

Rochelle Gwerm smashes this door open

Rochelle Gwerm follows the others

Navaya

Aerlin

Aerlin
"This rashness is going to get you hurt, Nhot."

G'hesh Nhot
?

Aerlin
"We have to be quiet."

G'hesh Nhot
?

Navaya
"I'm wonderin' if you'll actually climb back up that, Roch"

Rochelle Gwerm
"..."
"can that rope even hold me?"
"This is a problem I did not forsee"

Aerlin
I'm going to see if I can't hear past this door.

Navaya
"yeah dunno. Still it'll be fun finding out!"

Rochelle Gwerm
"Oh well"

Aerlin
That's an 11.

G'hesh Nhot
door?

Drufle (GM)
Total silence from the other side.

Rochelle Gwerm
"I'll give you about...5 seconds till I break the door down"

G'hesh Nhot opens door

Aerlin
"You can open it, you know."
Rochelle Gwerm:
Rochelle Gwerm : Perception
Check 14

Aerlin
"Watch this."

Navaya
ghesh gives one

Aerlin
I open the door.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Where's the fun in that?"

Red Redford
"Stop breaking doors 2017!"

Navaya
"what's a 2017"

Rochelle Gwerm smashes the open door as she passes it

Drufle (GM)
Alright, so Aerlin opens the door?

G'hesh Nhot
i said it first

Drufle (GM)
Lord three of you are trying to open the door at once who's doing it.
Nhot did say it first.

Aerlin
Me.

Navaya
aerlin opens the door and then I think gh'esh and rochelle smash the open door at the same time

Drufle (GM)
Understandable.

Aerlin
FIne just smash everything
G'hesh Nhot:
G'hesh Nhot : Strength
Check: 22

Drufle (GM)
Alright, then Aerlin gets the stab.

G'hesh Nhot
me take door

Navaya
stab?!

Rochelle Gwerm
welp

Drufle (GM)
As the door opens, an arrow whips towards Aerlin...
rolling d20+8 ( 3 )+8 = 11

Rochelle Gwerm
"This is why we smash doors open"

Aerlin
Ow, my shoulder.

Drufle (GM)
rolling d8( 4 ) = 4
And strikes her!

Red Redford
"If we ever get to be popular heroes, I hope you're prepared for the bards to describe your hatred of doors."

G'hesh Nhot
ghesh hit arrow person
?

Drufle (GM)
Inside the room are three actual named NPCs!

Rochelle Gwerm
"Look a this fancy group"

G'hesh Nhot doesn't care

Aerlin
I get a look at my assailants.

Drufle (GM)
A strange, insectoid-looking lady just pierced Aerlin's shoulder.

Navaya

Red Redford
"HAIL AND WELL MET. IDENTIFY YOURSELVES."

Rochelle Gwerm
"Strange looking crowd"

G'hesh Nhot
im going for the shooter
"bow mine"

Drufle (GM)
Alright, Nhot is indeed first.
Move and attack or charge?
Actually you can't charge, table in the way.
That simplifies things.

Navaya
can't she make an acrobatics to leap over it?

Drufle (GM)
She could, if she really wanted the charge.

Aerlin
No need, she can reach the insect lady.

Rochelle Gwerm

G'hesh Nhot

Drufle (GM)
Well insectoid lady just got insta-murdered.

G'hesh Nhot
my buttons move when you type but there is a delay

Rochelle Gwerm
why???

Navaya
now we'll never know who she was...

Rochelle Gwerm
the sheet shouldn't do that

Drufle (GM)
She can't use the sheet buttons, they're too laggy.

G'hesh Nhot
insta kill, how?

Rochelle Gwerm
you just tore through her

Drufle (GM)
She has to use the button that puts the extra buttons in-chat.

Rochelle Gwerm
you got a crit on the tail attack

Drufle (GM)
And yeah you just did 29 in two attacks.

G'hesh Nhot
fuck

Drufle (GM)
She had 24 hp.

G'hesh Nhot took revenge for the arrow

Drufle (GM)
I mean technically she's unconscious.

Red Redford
"As you can see, we can wipe you out easily."
"Now if you could just surrender."

Navaya
at least she cares about her friends

Aerlin
"If this were any other door I'm almost certain that wouldn't have happened."
"This proves nothing."

Rochelle Gwerm
"Nah, never just open doors"

Navaya
"yeah yeah, just hold still while I heal you"

Rochelle Gwerm
"Its always a trap"

G'hesh Nhot
i know why it hurt so much. id just riped the door off, woops

Drufle (GM)
The lady glares you down, Red.

Rochelle Gwerm
are these guys really not going to talk?

Aerlin
Gosh, right in my arcane mark, too.

Drufle (GM)
I was deciding whether or not to actually give them character pages but I get the feeling they won't be living much longer.
"I've sacrificed too much to back down now, you assassins!"

G'hesh Nhot
ghesh smash

Navaya
i figured that if they're meant to have names they're meant to be important

Red Redford
"Lady we don't even know what's going on."

Rochelle Gwerm
"Well that's suspicious as hell"

Aerlin
We are technically assassins.

Drufle (GM)
Well Red, you actually go next.

Red Redford
"And assassin are graceful, and silent."
"We are sadly anything but."

G'hesh Nhot
?

Rochelle Gwerm
"Anyone get the feeling we're missing something?"

Navaya
"we're technically hired goons!"

Rochelle Gwerm
"What the fairy said"

Red Redford
ooh i can fire my bow now

Drufle (GM)
By the way, I put a better picture of her in telegram.

Red Redford
a cleric of baphomet huh

Drufle (GM)
She is a... level 3 Inquisitor of baphomet.

Red Redford
inquisitor buddies!!!

Navaya
aight so
not a friend

Rochelle Gwerm
"Are we really going to try and talk through a fight again?"
"Because these aren't lizards"

Drufle (GM)
He can make an influence check to talk them down.
That's generally an option.

Aerlin
"You're in league with those demons, then?"
"Making yourself real obvious."

Red Redford
"I see a demonic regalia. I will see to it that you're not going to make it out of this in one piece."

Drufle (GM)
"My loyalty lies with the Ivory Labyrinth!"

Red Redford
i fire my bow at her

Aerlin
Who??

Rochelle Gwerm
Red wait
make a religion check first
because no one knows who that is

Drufle (GM)
(thats not a person it's a place you dinguses)
Red Redford:
default Red Redford : Religion
Check 19
+4 Kn. religion, +2 Kn. of demigods

Drufle (GM)
The Ivory Labyrinth is the abyssal domain of Baphomet.

Rochelle Gwerm

Navaya

Red Redford
"Gragh!"

G'hesh Nhot laughs at bow fail

Drufle (GM)
Nice try, though.
Navaya!

Rochelle Gwerm
"You ever try like...a sword or something"
"maybe a dagger might be more your speed"

Navaya
im using heal hex on aerlin

Drufle (GM)
Righto.

Red Redford
"I'd like to suggest that we take these three alive. For interrogation."

Drufle (GM)

Aerlin

Red Redford
"THEN we kill them."

Aerlin

Navaya

Drufle (GM)
Wait no it's +2.
Because CL 2.

Navaya

Drufle (GM)
So 3 hp.

Aerlin
"Thank you."

Navaya

Drufle (GM)
Oh Aerlin, I never did answer you.

Aerlin
Yes.

Drufle (GM)
Those potions you got from the chief are CL 3.

Navaya

Rochelle Gwerm

Navaya
"no prob!"

G'hesh Nhot
FIGHT

Drufle (GM)
After Navaya is... the lady!
crap i have to look up spells

G'hesh Nhot offers a challenge

Navaya
did you guys ever take back the money I looted from the spore'd corpses

Rochelle Gwerm
I don't think so

Navaya
k cool

Rochelle Gwerm
we didn't buy anything except rope
and beer

Aerlin
It's in a pool or something. We'll sort it out later.

G'hesh Nhot
BEER!

Rochelle Gwerm
well ??? man bought it

Navaya
I'll get the lamp oil and bombs when we get back, then

Rochelle Gwerm
but he's not ??? man anymore

Drufle (GM)
Alright, the lady waves her hand and a glowing glaive appears in front of Red's face.

Navaya
to take or...

G'hesh Nhot yells

G'hesh Nhot
"fight me"

Drufle (GM)
rolling d20+4( 4 )+4 = 8
That is a miss on Red.

Rochelle Gwerm
hmmmmmmmm
so guys
do you think this is an important enough fight to rage in?

Red Redford
"Looks like we're both bad aims! Ha."
yes deffo

Drufle (GM)
She scowls at you.

Rochelle Gwerm
"That is not a thing to be proud of, man"

Navaya
yeah sure hulk out

Rochelle Gwerm
is it my turn?

G'hesh Nhot
is this the last survivor?

Rochelle Gwerm
there are two people left

Drufle (GM)
After her is Aerlin.

Aerlin
Hmm.
I'm going to use my Sleep scroll on the left guy.

G'hesh Nhot prepares herself for an attack, considering how many hands to use

Drufle (GM)
Alright, how does that work again?
Aerlin:
Aerlin : Sleep
Spell Level: Wizard (Primalist), 1
School: Enchantment (compulsion) [mind-affecting]
Cast Time: 1 round
Components: V, S, M (fine sand, rose petals, or a live cricket)
Range: 120 (Medium)
Effects/Target: One or more living creatures within a 10-ft.-radius burst
Duration: 1 min./level
Spell Resistance: Yes
Save: Will negates DC: 18 Concentration: +11
Rolls
Caster Level Check (Level) =12
Original spell level:Bard 1, Sorcerer/wizard 1 A sleep spell causes a magical slumber to come upon 4 HD of creatures. Creatures with the fewest HD are affected first. Among creatures with equal HD, those who are closest to the spell's point of origin are affected first. HD that are not sufficient to affect a creature are wasted. Sleeping creatures are helpless. Slapping or wounding awakens an affected creature, but normal noise does not. Awakening a creature is a standard action (an application of the aid another action). Sleep does not target unconscious creatures, constructs, or undead creatures.

Rochelle Gwerm
something something will save?
oh
it works like that

Drufle (GM)
Thanks.

Aerlin
DC is 18.

Drufle (GM)
rolling d20+1( 16 )+1 = 17
He zonks right out.

Rochelle Gwerm

Red Redford

Rochelle Gwerm

Drufle (GM)
Oh wait.

Red Redford

Drufle (GM)
It affects her too.

Rochelle Gwerm

Drufle (GM)
10-foot burst, up to 4 HD.

G'hesh Nhot

Drufle (GM)
He has one, she has 3.

Rochelle Gwerm
this is a nasty spell

Aerlin
Nice.

Drufle (GM)
I'll warn you, her will is better.
rolling d20+5 ( 11 )+5 = 16
Not much better.

Rochelle Gwerm
but is her LUCK BETTER
NO IT AINT

Aerlin
I move in, as well.
"I want answers..."

Drufle (GM)
Well, they're both unconscious now.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Wait, what did youu do?"

Navaya
the sex position

Aerlin
Good thing I have.
Rope.

Rochelle Gwerm
"I was hyping myself up an everything and they're just down"

Red Redford
lets tie them up

Drufle (GM)
They are asleep for the next... 20 rounds.

G'hesh Nhot
i want fight

Rochelle Gwerm
huh
yeah tie them up

G'hesh Nhot
hitting wakes them up

Drufle (GM)
Insect lady is also still bleeding out.

Red Redford
"No, we tie them up and interrogate them."

Rochelle Gwerm
yeah don't wake them up

Aerlin
Hmm.

Rochelle Gwerm
"I assume we interrogate, then murder?"

Aerlin
We'll remove any weapons of course.

Red Redford
"Someone... sigh heal that other person."

G'hesh Nhot
NO

Rochelle Gwerm robs these guys of any valuables they have

Red Redford
"Why would you word it like that."

Navaya moves in

Red Redford
"Who casually murders people?"

Aerlin
Stabilise will keep her unconcious.

Drufle (GM)
Boy, do they have valuables.

Navaya doesn't give a damn what gh'esh thinks

Drufle (GM)
The lady has...

Rochelle Gwerm
"You literally said so yourself"

G'hesh Nhot
i don't want my kill healed

Rochelle Gwerm
"This isn't my average body count"

G'hesh Nhot
MINE

Navaya
"you had yours. now it's mine."

Navaya

Navaya

Navaya gets to work

Navaya

Drufle (GM)
Wow.

Aerlin
Unless anyone really wants these now, we'll just pile them in the other room for the moment?

Navaya

G'hesh Nhot:
G'hesh Nhot : Influence

Red Redford
"Let's let the townsfolk deal with them. There's probably an underground jail."

Drufle (GM)
Alright, she suddenly wakes up now that she's conscious.

Navaya
OOF

G'hesh Nhot
MINE

Rochelle Gwerm
god I missed all of that
what is that stuff?

Aerlin
Stabilise would have kept her in negative HP...

Drufle (GM)
Should I list it again in telegram for easier copying?

Red Redford
yes pls

Rochelle Gwerm
I got it

Navaya
i don't have stabilize

Rochelle Gwerm
Right, I'll grab some of this stuff

Drufle (GM)
Alright, Rochelle finds this note.

Red Redford

Aerlin
Yeah ya do.

Red Redford

Aerlin
It's a cantrip.

Rochelle Gwerm
hmmm

Rochelle Gwerm begins reading

Drufle (GM)
(can everyone see the note)

Rochelle Gwerm
can everyone see this?

G'hesh Nhot
ghesh cannot read

Rochelle Gwerm
because she's reading this out loud

Navaya
yeah

G'hesh Nhot
see what?

Drufle (GM)
Theoretically everyone should see the note right now, so go ahead and read it.
Sam probably can't because lag.

Red Redford
i dont understand some of these words

G'hesh Nhot
argh

Rochelle Gwerm
who wants the potion of CMW?

Drufle (GM)
Understandable, you aren't meant to know all of these names and places yet.

Navaya
meee

Rochelle Gwerm
we got alchemist fire too
who wants that?

Navaya
probably not me cuz I have tiny arms

Rochelle Gwerm
oooh a masterwork Glaive
Here you go Nhot

G'hesh Nhot

Navaya
glaives are polearms

Rochelle Gwerm
I think a glaive is a polearm

G'hesh Nhot

Drufle (GM)
The tiefling man also has some stuff but it isn't nearly as interesting.

Rochelle Gwerm

G'hesh Nhot

Aerlin
Yaniel's sword.

G'hesh Nhot
yes

Aerlin
They have it apparently.

Rochelle Gwerm

Aerlin
Where would it be, though.

G'hesh Nhot
MINE NOW

Drufle (GM)
Light, I think?

Rochelle Gwerm
you already have armor, Nhot

Red Redford
"That's a museum piece!"

G'hesh Nhot
im on about sword

Rochelle Gwerm
"Yes Red, it says so in the note"

Navaya
"man, these guys have been busy bees, ain't they?"

Aerlin
"I'd say it belongs in a museum, but that museum is probably in pieces now."

Red Redford
"And now they're naked bees."

Rochelle Gwerm
what is the AC of the chain shirt?

G'hesh Nhot
KILL now?

Red Redford
have we tied them up and raided all their belongings
they might wake up soon

Drufle (GM)
+4, Rochelle.

Aerlin
20 rounds is only two minutes.

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.

Aerlin
Deal with the treasure later.

Drufle (GM)
They're probably regaining consciousness soon.

Aerlin
Are they tied up now, then?

Red Redford
tie them up prisoner style

Drufle (GM)
I mean, I sure hope so.

G'hesh Nhot gets sword ready

Red Redford
do i have to roll

Drufle (GM)
No, they're just tied up.

Rochelle Gwerm
I will kill them if they try anything

Drufle (GM)
You only have to roll if they're conscious.

Navaya
did you also tie up bug lady

Aerlin
Yeah, look intimidating.

Drufle (GM)
Well she's already awake.
Has been for a while.

Rochelle Gwerm
who took the glaive?

Drufle (GM)
As soon as you healed her, in fact.

Navaya
and she hasn't moved cause/...?

Drufle (GM)
Because there has been a lot of talking and I haven't had a moment to start a new conversation.

Navaya
fair point

Drufle (GM)
The insect lady jolts awake and looks around the room, eyes darting.

G'hesh Nhot
me make her sleep

Red Redford
that key is probably important

Rochelle Gwerm
"Right, two ways this could go"
"You cooperate and we be nice"
"Or I bash your head in"

G'hesh Nhot
KILL

Navaya
"hey! no sudden movemets"
"HOLD IT, ghesh!"

"Uh huh, so, you guys aren't very good at this, are you?"

Aerlin
"Who are you?"

Rochelle Gwerm hefts her greatclub over and ready to crush

Rochelle Gwerm
"What was that?"

Wenduag
"Wenduag, used to be second-in-command here."

Navaya
she's already got a knife against my throat hasn't she

G'hesh Nhot double hands her sword

Wenduag
"Used to, being the operative term."

Aerlin
"And your friends here?"

Wenduag scoffs.

Wenduag
"Friends is a strong word for maniacs that killed your leader."

Rochelle Gwerm
"Yet you're still working with them"
"Or were, rather"

Navaya
"ohh. so THESE are the nasty ones"

Wenduag
"Uh, hello? Did you not see the giant magic glowing weapon she throws around?"

Rochelle Gwerm
"Wimp"

Wenduag
"We are very much not equipped to deal with that."

Rochelle Gwerm
"She couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with that thing"

Aerlin
"So they took over?"

Wenduag is now ignoring Rochelle.

Wenduag
"Little bit, yeah."

Navaya
"so watcha here for? I mean you, not the sleepy slobs over there"

Rochelle Gwerm
is Sense Motives a Perception check?

Drufle (GM)
Perception, yeah.
Rochelle Gwerm:
Rochelle Gwerm : Perception

Aerlin
"I assume they're using you to further their. Demon stuff."

Rochelle Gwerm
there's something not totally shit

G'hesh Nhot
is to get them back on track an attack?

Wenduag
"Planes I don't know, you think they tell us anything?"

Drufle (GM)
Rochelle you think she's very annoyed, but not really lying about anything.

Rochelle Gwerm
hmmmmmmmmmm

Aerlin
"They're worshipping Bahomphet, it seems." (how you spell)

Drufle (GM)
Baphomet.

Navaya
bafomdad

Red Redford
bamfomet

Aerlin
Mr Baha

Wenduag
"Is that the name of the bull thing? Hideous creature, if you ask me?"

Red Redford
"What else do you know about them."

Aerlin
"Anyway, they're somewhat helpless now. Maybe you'd like to take control back?"

Red Redford
"And also, do you want to see them dead?"

Wenduag
"I know that they are assholes, and that I'd be delighted if you took three steps to the left and slit their throats."

Navaya
"well that settles that!"
"GUYS!!"

Rochelle Gwerm
"sounds like a plan to me"

Navaya
"let G'hesh get one"

Red Redford
"That could be arranged. But first we ask them about this letter."

Navaya
"I think she's about to explode"

Rochelle Gwerm
"Oh right, the letter..."

Aerlin
I can Charm one of them.

Red Redford
"AND the key."

Aerlin
Might help us get info here.

Wenduag
"Sure, whatever, just let me see the bloodshed, eh? I've been dreaming about this for weeks."

Rochelle Gwerm
Ghesh stop

G'hesh Nhot
stop this damn lag

Red Redford
thats not canon

Navaya
let that happen after we do the thing

Rochelle Gwerm
the lag is strong with this one

Drufle (GM)
Also you don't have to roll if they're unconscious!
With a coup de grace you automatically hit and do max damage.

Red Redford
how many rams do you have

G'hesh Nhot
but it was a 22

Rochelle Gwerm
their AC is effectively 0 right now

Drufle (GM)
I mean, yes, it was a hit anyway.

Rochelle Gwerm
"So which one do we wake up and interrogate?"
"I'd bet the lady"

Aerlin
The lady seems to know the most.

Red Redford
"Oh, can we do some prisoner's dilemma mindgames?"
"I'd like to do that."

Wenduag frowns.

Wenduag
"Uh, what?"

Rochelle Gwerm grabs the lady and throws her down onto her stomach, then sits on top of her

Rochelle Gwerm
"Lets try this"

Drufle (GM)
OOF

Red Redford
"So no mindgames."

Rochelle Gwerm
700 fucking pounds on her back

Aerlin
She's tied up!

Rochelle Gwerm
so?

G'hesh Nhot pulverises the other body to a pulp

Drufle (GM)
Yeah, little bit.
Oh dear.

Aerlin
Not yet.

G'hesh Nhot in her head

Rochelle Gwerm
this worked so well for HK

Navaya
"youre in the wrong party to play mindgames. red"

Aerlin
It's kind of hard to talk to someone when you've murdered their friend.

Rochelle Gwerm
"You can mindgames while I crush her lungs"

Drufle (GM)
The lady wakes up, wheezing.
Again, not gonna bother giving her a sheet.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Hello, welcome back to the waking world"
"And my ass"

Drufle (GM)
"GAG COUGH HACK WHEEZE"

Navaya
"you might wanna... get up a bit"

Rochelle Gwerm
"fiiiine"

Rochelle Gwerm takes a tiny bit of the weight off her

Drufle (GM)
Shockingly enough, most humanoid respiratory systems don't function well under a third of a ton of compressive weight.

Rochelle Gwerm
600 lbs instead of the full 700

Aerlin
Bah, physicis.

Rochelle Gwerm
this is why I can't water, btw

Aerlin
And biology.

Drufle (GM)
"HACK GASP OFF ME COUGH"

G'hesh Nhot picks up a huge rock ready to finish everything

Rochelle Gwerm
"Nah, you make a good seat"

Navaya
"a bit more"

Rochelle Gwerm
"She can talk she's fine"

Drufle (GM)
Wow, alright.

Navaya
"and G'hesh if you don't put that rock back down right now I'll freeze your ass solid"

Drufle (GM)
Red, what do you want to know because you know it now.

Red Redford
"Okay. I have no control over the current situation."
"But it seems that you're in a lot of trouble."

Rochelle Gwerm
"Damn right red"

G'hesh Nhot buts rock down

Navaya
"thank you!"

Red Redford
"So tell us what we need to know or something Very Bad might happen."

Drufle (GM)
Hosilla is still hacking and sputtering.

Red Redford
"Nod if you want to say yes."

G'hesh Nhot
but picks up sword

Drufle (GM)
She nods.

Navaya
"THE SWORD TOO"
"learn some god-damned patience!"

Rochelle Gwerm
"If I hop a little I think I'd just crush her spine"

Navaya
"for fuck's sake!"

Red Redford
"Tell us all the unknown variables in this letter."

Drufle (GM)
(the sword isnt even in this room)

Rochelle Gwerm
longsword I think

G'hesh Nhot puts sword away and pulls hammer out of her boot straps

Drufle (GM)
Oh geez, uh.

Red Redford
"Who is Vorlesh?"

Navaya
"how did you even fit-"

Rochelle Gwerm is just laughing

Aerlin
She's more weapon than dragon

Rochelle Gwerm
"I love this group"
"This is the best"

Drufle (GM)
Vorlesh is some high-tier demonic official, that's all she knows.

Red Redford
"Allow her to talk a bit more, Roche?"

G'hesh Nhot
it was tied on the outside gowing on the outside of the leg

Rochelle Gwerm
"I don't want to give her too much wiggleroom"

Red Redford
"What's Yaniel's sword"

Navaya
how do you even walk like that

Rochelle Gwerm
"But fiiiine"

G'hesh Nhot lines up hammer

Rochelle Gwerm takes another 50 lbs off

Navaya
"alright that's enough"

Drufle (GM)
Yaniel's sword is some kind of ultra-holy magic longsword that she stole not too long ago.

Red Redford
neato

Drufle (GM)
Yaniel was some crusader or something.

Navaya
I'm casting evil eye on g'hesh to drop her attack rolls

G'hesh Nhot
big sword
mine

Drufle (GM)
Pffft.

Rochelle Gwerm
I'm in the way here

Aerlin
She doesn't need one, by the rway.

Navaya
well

Red Redford
"Hmmm... what else."

Rochelle Gwerm
the Mean Glare

Navaya
something to stop her from hitting the poor bitch

Red Redford
these three locations

Navaya
because I sure as hell can't punch her out

G'hesh Nhot
you said mine

Red Redford
can we jut roll knowledge local checks

Aerlin
If we both ray of frost at once that would probably freeze her solid right

Drufle (GM)
Yeah, they're locations in Kenabres where cultists have been stockpiling stuff.

Aerlin
We can defrost her after.

Navaya
hell I'm game for that

Drufle (GM)
The password is legitimate.

Red Redford
Okay then

Rochelle Gwerm
"How about what they hoped to get out of their nonsense"
"That's a good question"
"Because it sure as hell didn't get them far"

Red Redford
"Anyone else want a stab at questioning them?"

G'hesh Nhot
ill stab

Drufle (GM)
You're gonna have to be more specific when it comes to "they"

Navaya
"SORRY HANDS FULL RIGHT NOW"

Rochelle Gwerm
"This cult thingy they have here"

Drufle (GM)
What cult, the small group here in the fort, or the cult overall?

G'hesh Nhot roars

Red Redford
both

Rochelle Gwerm
"Also how these jokers got control of this place"

Aerlin
Now lets pull off her mask and see who's really under there.

Navaya
"OK aerlin, frost her!"

G'hesh Nhot
"where the demons"

Aerlin
Old Man Jenkins!!
No!!

Drufle (GM)
To the former, her superior told her to get away from Kenabres, for the latter, she doesn't know anything.

Not entirely on the overall cult thing.

G'hesh Nhot
id watch your back when i defrost

Rochelle Gwerm
uh oh

Red Redford
"More weight."

Rochelle Gwerm lets 70 lbs back on

Aerlin
Cackle cackle.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Caaaan do"

G'hesh Nhot
you are very squishy

Drufle (GM)
I think a few ribs break.

Rochelle Gwerm
oooof

Red Redford
"Nod if you want to tell us more."

Rochelle Gwerm
"Wow I think I heard something"

Drufle (GM)
She nods furiously.

Navaya
i'll take you any day of the week, pal

G'hesh Nhot
i could probably kill you with 1 hit

Rochelle Gwerm
"She's really frail"

Navaya
you miiiight not hit me

Red Redford
"Ok Roche, less weight."

Rochelle Gwerm lets the 70 lbs back off

Drufle (GM)
This is like that scene from The Crucible.

G'hesh Nhot
i wouldn't stop

Red Redford
This is nice I hope this is how we interrogate from now on

Rochelle Gwerm
I can imagine her trying to figure out what the hell they put on top of her

Navaya
that's literally where golurk got that quote from, druf

Drufle (GM)
She clarifies that the cult is trying to do something with the wardstone in Kenabres, and that's seriously all she knows.

Red Redford
i dont know what the crucible is

G'hesh Nhot squares off to Navaya

Red Redford
"Thank you muchly."

Aerlin
Wish I had Zone of Truth...

G'hesh Nhot with her sword drawn

Drufle (GM)
ZONE OF TRUTH

G'hesh Nhot
trie it pixie

Rochelle Gwerm
"Well, at least we have a bit more knowledge of what's going on"
"So what do we do with her?"

Navaya can't hear frozen dragons

Rochelle Gwerm
"She's unarmed now"

Drufle (GM)
I love this little spat between Navaya and Nhot in the corner.

Red Redford
"Now we have to reward you for your cooperation. From the mercy of the Lords of the Empyrean, you...might live."

G'hesh Nhot
its alright. im hitting her when i defrost

Drufle (GM)
Tiny ice lady versus giant fire lady.

G'hesh Nhot
double handed

Red Redford
there was a mongrelman village right

Drufle (GM)
You left it like half an hour ago, yes.

Rochelle Gwerm
yeah, we came from there

Aerlin
God, we act fast, huh.

Red Redford

"Can I interrogate the other guy?"

Aerlin
Do they have a prison?

G'hesh Nhot

Drufle (GM)
Well somebody is certainly dead.

Rochelle Gwerm
I hope that was a joke, Nhot

Navaya
oh noo im dead

Aerlin
I wanna ask the lady something.
Spiderface.

Drufle (GM)
Who, Wenduag?

G'hesh Nhot
i did warn you

Aerlin
Yeah.

Wenduag
Go ahead.
make my day

Rochelle Gwerm
I could sit on her too

Aerlin
"They told us you were traitors, back in Neathholm. What's that about?"

Wenduag scowls and kinda hisses.

Red Redford frowns at the murderdeath

Rochelle Gwerm
"does someone want to get sat on too?"

Aerlin
Let her explain.

Wenduag
"They're not willing to fight for themselves! They're all too content to sit in the dark and do nothing for years at a time. We had to leave just to try and get something done."

Navaya
"hey I can sympathize with that"

Aerlin
"Seems they've found their motivation, recently. Demons attacked the city above, and they want to fight."

Wenduag looks curious.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Save the city and all that"
"Whatever's left of it"

Wenduag
"What, ol' Sull finally found his courage?"

G'hesh Nhot
does anyone want to heal up splattered caster

Rochelle Gwerm
nah

Aerlin
"Seems so. You should talk to him, perhaps."

Navaya
can't heal up splatting

G'hesh Nhot
oh good

Rochelle Gwerm
she's fine

Wenduag
"Pretty sure dude wouldn't talk to us again, honestly."

G'hesh Nhot
"he listen"
me make him

Aerlin
"Well, I'll put in a good word, in any case."

Wenduag relaxes and her expression softens.

Wenduag
"Well, alright. I'll take, uh, what's left of our people here and head back."

G'hesh Nhot
BEER

Aerlin
Let's go use that key!

Red Redford
DIBS

Navaya
"god yeah I could do with a drink"

Rochelle Gwerm gets off the magic lady

Aerlin
"It's been 30 minutes!"

Wenduag
"Oh, but uh, be careful, there's some nasty monsters Hosilla threw in our maze by the surface exit."

Red Redford
"Do you drink from a little thimble?"

Rochelle Gwerm
"Like a lizard?"

Navaya
"EXCUSE me I'll take the same glass as anybody else!!"

G'hesh Nhot
she drinks like dragon

Wenduag
"No, it's more like some kind of angry screaming flesh man."

Navaya
(DO NOT LET HER HAVE THE SAME GLASS AS EVERYBODY ELSE)

Wenduag
"Oh hey, speaking of lizards, have you seen one around here?"

Red Redford
"It's still alive."

Rochelle Gwerm
"It ran off"

Red Redford
"Is that your pet?"

Aerlin
I didn't let her drink the first time because she's one foot tall.

Wenduag
"Ah, good. Yeah, she's my companion I keep around. Cuddly little thing."

Rochelle Gwerm whistles

Navaya
"god thing it only got brained a little bit..."

Red Redford
oheewww

Aerlin
Aww.

G'hesh Nhot

Drufle (GM)
Alright, let's go observe these other rooms.

Red Redford
DIBS

G'hesh Nhot

Rochelle Gwerm
do I carry the prisoners?

Red Redford
are there even any

Drufle (GM)
So there is indeed a lockbox that Hosilla's key works on.

Navaya
is literally every murder attempt g'hesh made canon or not

Drufle (GM)
Big ol' chest.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Watch out for snakes"

Aerlin
Is there a giant sword in there.

Drufle (GM)
The majority of them are not, Navaya.
Inside the chest are...

Navaya
well that's a relief

G'hesh Nhot
sword

Red Redford
poison gas! wow!

Aerlin
Ray of Frost can't even freeze people, none of this was canon.

Rochelle Gwerm
we really need a loot-specific channel

Drufle (GM)
150 gp worth of gems, a scroll of Bear's Endurance, a scroll of Remove Disease, and a beautiful darkwood sword case.

Rochelle Gwerm
poison gas counts of loot

Red Redford
reds face dissolves into goo

G'hesh Nhot takes case

Rochelle Gwerm picks up the prisoners

Red Redford
oh did rochelle get cured

Rochelle Gwerm
yeah
I'm good

Drufle (GM)
Yeah.

G'hesh Nhot opens case

Red Redford
thats nice

Drufle (GM)
There's a witchdoctor in the village.

Aerlin
Is there a giant sword in there.

Red Redford
"Curious, there's a case but no sword."

Drufle (GM)
Inside the case is a gorgeous, breathtaking longsword with a razor-sharp blade that looks to be made of shining gold.

Red Redford
oh

Rochelle Gwerm
wut
its actually there

G'hesh Nhot
mine

Red Redford
i rolled a 1

Rochelle Gwerm
"Wow, that's on heck of a sword"
"Hope its real"

Drufle (GM)
Hey Nhot, what's your alignment?

Drufle (GM)
Weird save.

Navaya

Drufle (GM)
Alright, you quickly yank your hand away as you feel it searing against the sword's metal.

G'hesh Nhot
did i pass?

Rochelle Gwerm
I can tell you that you could probably work with Rochelle

Red Redford
"Let me take a look."

Aerlin
"Holy moly."

Rochelle Gwerm
unfortunately only the Good can wield it

G'hesh Nhot
?

Red Redford
brb

Drufle (GM)
Whatever this sword is, it does not like you.

Aerlin
"That's a whole lotta Holy."

Navaya
"It's allergic to morons"

G'hesh Nhot

Navaya
now THAT's a questline

Rochelle Gwerm
"huh, weird sword"

Drufle (GM)
I, uh, would highly recommend not touching the sword again.

Navaya

G'hesh Nhot

Aerlin
I'm Neutral Good...
Not really a sword user.

Drufle (GM)
Fight the legendary weapon, I dare you.

Rochelle Gwerm

no fight

Drufle (GM)
It will go very well for everyone that isn't Nhot.

Rochelle Gwerm
I mean Aerlin just touch it

Navaya

Aerlin
I'll poke it
Slowly, now.

Drufle (GM)
It tingles, but doesn't sear.

Navaya
he's gone for a sec

Red Redford
im back

Navaya
see?

Aerlin
Do you want to try it, Red?

Drufle (GM)
But actually though, anyone more than one step away from LG takes damage if they try and hold it.

Rochelle Gwerm
"So what's the matter?"

G'hesh Nhot
so a longsword that someone with the proficiency of longswords cannot handle lol.

Red Redford
its the master sword
need more heart

Aerlin
"This sword is very attuned to the righteous and lawful."

G'hesh Nhot
i have warrior heart

Rochelle Gwerm
"Wow"

Aerlin
"Which many of us are not."

Navaya
"just as well I cant lift it, huh"

Red Redford
i touchy the sword

Rochelle Gwerm
"A weapon that's a stuck up prick?"

Drufle (GM)
Red, what the heck is your specific empyreal lord's favored weapon?

Aerlin
"So...don't touch it unless you're nice."

Red Redford
longbow

Drufle (GM)
I know you're a polytheist and all, but you picked a singular one right.
Ah, ok.

G'hesh Nhot does not like people touching her sword

Drufle (GM)
As Red touches the weapon, it suddenly morphs into a longbow.

Navaya
"I can be nice! I just don't tolerate bullshit"

Red Redford
fuckin a

Navaya
"oh wow"

Rochelle Gwerm
navaya is...something Good right?

Aerlin
Haha, what.

Navaya
chaotic good

Rochelle Gwerm
yeah that's too far away to use it

Aerlin
"Oh! Amazing."

G'hesh Nhot is wondering where her sword went

Rochelle Gwerm
not that...you could carry it

Drufle (GM)
If you aren't LG, LN, or NG, you'll get hurt by Radiance.

Navaya
"guess it ain't your sword anymore, draggy!"

Red Redford
"Not a sord anymore, my friend."

Drufle (GM)
The name of this weapon.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Uhhh"

Red Redford
"yoink!"

Rochelle Gwerm
"This is one weird day, let me tell ya"

Red Redford
"Now would this fire magical light arrows I wonder."

Drufle (GM)
This is a +1 cold iron longbow that radiates light as you wish it to.

G'hesh Nhot is looking rather distraught

Rochelle Gwerm
so it glows
yay

Drufle (GM)
Only if you want it to.

Red Redford
whats with me and glowy magical weapons

Rochelle Gwerm
I'm guessing it scales

G'hesh Nhot
sword gone

Drufle (GM)
It scales a little bit, yes.

Rochelle Gwerm
with a crappy power like that it'd have to

Navaya
you're the main character, clearly

Red Redford
nhot is devastated

Drufle (GM)
In fact, this weapon is pretty much gonna guarantee that Red gets a smaller cut of loot from now on out.

Rochelle Gwerm

Navaya

Rochelle Gwerm
well lets hope it helps his aim

Drufle (GM)
pffft

Red Redford
"Now I really wanna know how to use this."

Rochelle Gwerm
"So does this thing have aim assist?"

Red Redford
"Maybe magical curving arrows."

Aerlin
Should we explore the rest of this place?

Rochelle Gwerm
yeah, lets clear this place out

Red Redford
what else is left

Aerlin
We've completed the objective, I guess.

Rochelle Gwerm
find any survivors

Aerlin
Some flesh monster?

Rochelle Gwerm

I want to RAGE

Aerlin
I guess killing that is a good idea.

Rochelle Gwerm
SO BADLY

Drufle (GM)
There's another ladder in the north of the trophy room, and a door leading east from that room.

Rochelle Gwerm
can I use people as weapons?

Drufle (GM)
Maybe you should, uh, actually move up there.
Oh, that door.

Rochelle Gwerm

Drufle (GM)

Rochelle Gwerm

"but also the captives"

Rochelle Gwerm

Drufle (GM)
The book doesn't give much reason for it not to.

Rochelle Gwerm
"Hey lady, do you want to go up before or after the other guy?"
"Are you lungs even functional anymore?"

Drufle (GM)
She doesn't seem concerned either way.

Rochelle Gwerm shrugs

Navaya
"we'll prolly have to hoist her up"

Rochelle Gwerm drops the lady to the ground and climbs up with the tiefling

Rochelle Gwerm

Drufle (GM)
Nah, just go ahead.

Rochelle Gwerm

Red Redford
"Finally a thing you guys can kill without remorse. Isn't that great?"

Navaya
"G'hesh. there's a fresh new demon for you to kill just up ahead!"

G'hesh Nhot runs to demons

Rochelle Gwerm

Navaya

Aerlin
"Is this the poopzone?"

Navaya guffaws at that

Aerlin
Guess I'll peer in.

Drufle (GM)
Looks to be a natural river running under the fort, with a nice little island that has a ladder leading down to it.
