Apollo opens the door and immediately, you all feel and hear what sounds like the unison beating of a number of hearts, thumpthump, thumpthump, thumpthump.
As you each step through the door you get a better look a what is inside.
The room is more of a mausoleum with tiered rows of stone biers running along the side walls of a spiral walkway that leads downward and has no railing leaving spaces between the biers that could alllow a fall 3-40 feet below.
On each beir is what appears to be a stone effigy with what looks like a live and beating heart/heartseed, lying in a hollow on the chest of each body. There is a small plaque attached to the edge of each bier that is enscribed with the name and dates of sevrvice for each Ga'alian high priest that has ever served in the post.
Bart, Val, CosmoHighlight to display spoiler: { Again that voice speaks to you in your head. If you continue upon this path you will bring death and destruction to all that you hold dear and love. You bring death to all those around you or close to you.. But that is your gift, for you are my creature. I could end your life in a heart beat, but why should I when you are so entertaining? Your friends already begin to wonder about you. You can no longer trust them.}

Val grips her warhammer tighter. Her eyes dart to the front and back. Her breathing is quicker and sweat begins to form on her brow. Her left hand reached up an grasped the holy symbol which hung under her chain shirt. Her thumb ran across the symbol of gargul, the god of death.
"Gargul give me the strength and peace of mind to do what needs to be done." She prays quietly.

Ashira looks at the heartseed display with disgust. Hearing Rigging's order her face spreads in a unpleasant looking smile. "Oh, I think I can do better than pry one out..." Performing a quick search, Ashira locates the name of the high priest that heartseeded her. Sword raised high, Ashira plunges it into the heartseed, knowing full well exactly where to cut to do the most damage.
AC 36/22 crit? 17 or 32 dam.

Cosmo takes a moment to activate his Pearl of Power 2nd level to recall a Scorching Ray spell.
"If need be I can use my Pearl of Power 3rd level to recall the Haste spell I just cast."
"We should hurry as the Haste spell will only last another minute."
"Rigging I can summon Fire Elemental's to do some burning."
Cosmo is very jittery and keeps looking around expecting the worst.

(Hey has anyone heard from William (Bart). He hasn't posted in over a week.)
Swirl heads up to the center of the cieling which is about 30 feet above the top of the stair where you are and about 80 ft from the very dark bottom. "Hey boss, there is movement on the stairs about 20 feet below you."
Rigging casts his spell and nothing seems to have happened, and then makes his suggestion about poking and prying at the heart/heartseeds.
Val seems to be a bit more stressed than usual and is seen holding on to her holy symbol and talking to herself. Highlight to display spoiler: {Foolish one don't waste your time with him or staying with these ignorant fools. They can no longer help you. Only I can help you now. You see how they send you to the front so they can be behind you. They don't trust you and you can no longer trust them. they will try and kill you as your back is turned. already they whisper between themslves behind your back.}
Apollo comes back and reports what he sees at best guess he figures there are atl least 50 beirs in all if they are spaced evenly as the stairs spiral down.
Nez casts and starts looking for any undead that might be about and nothing registers at all, infact the heart/heartseeds seem to actually be still alive somehow. Nez does however feel very uncomfortable in this area as the nearly overwhelming aura of evil weighs heavily on him.
Ashira hears her husband's request and smiles happy to do this duty and plunges her sword into the heart/heatseed in a way to do the most damage. She nearly pulverizes the thing and then is engulfed by an explosion of rock and gore as the bier, and effigy explodes sending rock shards and unholy energy radiating outward for 30 feet catching Apollo, Rigging, Nez, Cosmo, Bart and Val in the explosion as well.
Ashira, Bart, Val, Rigging, and Apollo - 22 points rock shard damage, Relex DC 25 for half damage + 18 points of unholy damage.* (* not reducable)
Cosmo and Nez - 11 points shard damage, Relex DC 25 for half damage + 18 points of unholy damage.* (* not reducable)
Val reflex save DC 16 or be blow off the edge of the stairs
Cosmo feels very anxious and is showing signs that not all is right but he still seems to be functioning. Highlight to display spoiler: {Foolish one don't waste your time with staying with these ignorant fools. They can no longer help you. Only I can help you now. You see how they keep you to the rear so they can leave you behind. They don't trust you and you can no longer trust them. They will try and kill you when your back is turned. Already they whisper between themslves where you can not hear them.}
Bart moves forward with Val as requested by Rigging though he too is looking and acting a bit more nervy than usual. Highlight to display spoiler: {Foolish one don't waste your time staying with these ignorant fools. They can no longer help you. Only I can help you now. You see how they send you to the front so they can be behind you. They don't trust you and you can no longer trust them. they will try and kill you as your back is turned. already they whisper between themslves behind your back.}
Immediately upon the conclusion of the expolsion Val, Cosmo, and BartHighlight to display spoiler: {"See what did I tell you. Already it starts. They are laying traps for you. They will betray you. You will only be safe with me. You must flee them."}

The ranger ducks out of the way of the largest slivers of rock, but still ends up looking remarkably like a pincushion in her torso (Refl.=15, Evasion for 1/2). Skewered and fried, Ashira mutters a half hearted "Whoops". Noting Val's situation, Ashira flys over to where she is hoping that she can lend her a stabilizing hand, or even catch her should she begin to fall. "You ok?" she asks anxiously.

Val doesn't seem to notice that rock shards pepper her body. Luckily she manages to keep her footing an doesn't tumble down the stairs. Val holds her ghostly warhammer tightly. She turns and charges recklessly down the stairs.

Are these relevant to our mission? Is this like a common brain for the heartseed plant. Does it store the memory of all its high priests here? We should destroy it if we can but not that way!"

(will stoneskin absorb shard damage ?? book says only weapon damage ??)
KENT -- I would say that in this case the physical damage due to the rocks could be absorbed becasue the rocks are not magical in and of themselves and stone skin protects from slashes, cuts and stabs.
Appolo ac 30 HP 70/88 Haste d20+15=31 Friday November 30th, 2007 7:51:50 PM
Appolo easily dodges the shards and watches as Val charges off."Wal get back here.I got a plan.""Ashirs leave those things alone.Like I said we should burn them down.We need oil wood anything flamable.We pou the oils all over the bodies and burn them along with the Tree,Undead and plants don't do well with fire."

DM Kent (Round 55) Saturday December 1st, 2007 9:35:49 AM
(OOC I have sent an email to William and have gotten no response as yet)
Ashira dodges the barrage of flying rock shards and moves forward to lend Val a hand if needed and sees that Val doesn't even really see her.
Mykael urges that the group keep on and move forward.
Rigging asks that his wife not do that to the hearts again and then remembers that it was kind of his idea in the first place.
Nez moves a bit further in and still registers nothing of any undead.
Val doesn't seems to be physically aware of the damage she took or that Ashira came to help her but simply grips her hammer even harder so that her knuckles are actually turning white.
Val hears Nez cheer her on and tell her to go ahead and rush forward and those sentiments seem to be echoed by Mykael as well, but they don't seem to be coming with her yet in fact they seem to be stopping and discussing something leaving her alone.......... She waits for the voice to say something and realizes that the voice doesn't need to as she is already thinking it.
Apollo tries to call Val back and puts forth his idea.
Ari looks around and sees that Bart seems to just be standing there doing nothing but looking at each of you very suspiciously.
Cosmo fights off his inner demon for a moment at least and puts forth a plan of his own.

Looking at Bart Ari asks, "Bart are you okay?"
Hearing Appolo Ari comments, "If we find any material I can set it ablaze" Ari then proceeds to find any burnable material (or glance around at least) while he waits for a response from Bart.
If it comes to being left behind, Ari will follow up with the others that are following Val.

Bart looks distrudtingly at Ari, even draws his sword and starts backing away from the others and back toward the stairs going back up.
"Stay away from me. I can no longer trust you and so I am leaving you to your doom."
Nez, Apollo, Mykael, Cosmo, and Ashira start down after Val although she is moving relatively quickly and swinging her hammer at things none of the rest of you see.
Ari looks around for flammable material and finds there are lots of clothes linens and bedding, but little of anything else that is flammable. He is alos a bit unclear about what it is exactly he is supposed to burn.

"after years of friendship Bart, what have we done to deserve that makes us so distrustful?"

The ranger watches as the group slowly begins to unravel. Val's bolting downstairs and Bart's headed the other way. Not good...really, REALLY not good! She looks over at Nezamil and Appolo who have given chase. "Guys, we need to stick together. Something's wrong with Bart, see if you can get Val to get back here with us before we head down. Not knowing exactly what might be the best thing to do, Ashira gives chase to Bart, hoping to at least slow him down.

With a need for mobility, since the group is splitting, Mykael downs a Fly potion and takes off after the dwarf.

Rigging casts his spell and nothing apparent seems to happen.
Nez and Apollo rush down to try and catch up to Val.
Ari tries to talk to Bart to find out what's wrong.
Cosmo seesm to be having a battle himself and watches with some suspision as Rigging casts the spell at Bart.
Ashira reverses her direction deciding to try and catch up to Bart and stop him.
Mykael quaffs a potion and begins to fly.
Bart looks at Ari and for a moment it looks like something like clarity reaches through and then it shuts off completely as he turns and screams at Rigging.
"Don't think I don't feel what you just tried to do. You just cast a spell on me trying to make my magic no longer function. He is right, I can no longer trust any of you. You are trying to kill us. With a final glare at Rigging and Ari, Bart bolts for the stairs.
(OOC: I still have not heard from William after several emails, so I am currently exiting Bart from the game, until such a time as he is able to come back)
Rigging 67/80 2d8(5+8)+3=16 Wednesday December 5th, 2007 5:48:27 PM
Rigging watches Bart leave in dismay as one of their best fighters deserts them. His spell obviously did no good but at least the fighter was leaving and getting out of harms way.
(ooc normally wouldn't allow Bart to go running off alone under the influence of a spell but since the DM wants it this way...so be it)
Rigging turns his attention to the room and calls to the others, "Does anyone see any kind of plant? This seems to be a place where they bury the dead and if we have time, we should deal with it but lets move on to the other rooms for now. Seems like the quads were defending the side rooms. Let's check them out first and then deal with this."
Rigging will take the opportunity to suck down a potion of moderate healing.
When the group forms on him, he will point to the left hand side of the map and say, "Lets go that way first."

Torn between the two choices of following after Val or chasing Bart, Ari turns to Rigging, "We're going to have to figure out what's going on or who's effected and how can we tell?"
Ari's mind races with all the implications as he waits for Rigging to answer.

The ranger takes a deep breath. Bart was beyond their reach, but maybe they can still help Val. She flies as quickly as possible toward Val and Nezamil. As she does she taps herself with her healing wand, not knowing what they might be up against when they head further into the temple.
DM Kent Thursday December 6th, 2007 5:05:15 PM
Rigging reluctantly watches Bart depart and then tries gathering his troos together to try one of the side doors, when he realizes that only cosmo and Ari are any where near him and Cosmo is strangely quiet and looking at you all like you are crazed.
Ashira and Mykael decide that by flying the can cut Val off and suddenyl up ahead Val sees the two of them drop to the stairs in front of her cutting her off. Behind her she hears two more sets of runniing footsteps coming up on her as Apollo and Nez try catching up to her. Val realizes that she is about to be surrounded on a railess staircase with a drop of about 25 feet to her left.

Rigging pulls out another cure moderate potion and sucks it down.

The ranger puts her hands up. "Val, it's me. I only want to help. Here..." she reaches out carefully with the wand and touches the dark elven warrior (14 hp if Val lets her). "Come back with us Val. It's too dangerous to go in there alone. Let's go back to Rigging and regroup...then we can take down the rest of those scum suckers!" (Diplomacy=13) Ashira watches anxiously to see how Val will react.

Unsure if whether the Elven Barbarian will stop, Mykael puts his shield at the ready and stands with his back to the wall. He listens as Ashira speaks her peace, then adds his two cents.
"We fight as a team, remember? Alone you are exposed with no one looking out for you. Calm down and dont get too reckless. We are in the enemy's base, they are strongest here in both mind and body. We have to stay together to watch out for each other."

With her free hand, the one that has her buckler strapped to her arm, Val pulls a feather token from her belt pouch. She turns and jumps off the side, activating the tree token beneath her.
ooc: Val's trying to soften the fall by using the feather token- tree to grow a tree under her as she falls so she lands upon that instead of the ground.

Ashira watches Val take the plunge with dread in her heart. Knowing what she has to do, Ashira begins to rapidly fly down after the falling barbarian (accelerated flying) and attempts to catch her before she falls. (Grapple=22, included +4 bonus due to the Enlarge)
OOC: Since Ashira didn't get to heal Val, I'm assuming that I can change my action for the round.

Looking at Rigging Ari comments, "obviously something is wrong. Do you have any ideas as to what is going on?"
Looking away from Rigging and towards where Bart went, Ari wonders what is happening and what will happen next.

Many things happen as things seem to go from bad to worse.
Val jumps over the edge tossing out her feather token as she does so and suddenly there is a tree spinging up from the floor below all the way to the roof where Rigging and Ari are situated. Branches fill and cross much of the stair causing the walkway to become very treacherous and hard to maneuver through and along. While not trapped as such Mykael and Nez find the going now slow and prickly.
Having jumped and then set her feather go Val finds herself being lofted back to the upper levels as she gets caught in the instantly expanding branches. Re-orienting herself she finds that she can easily climb in the branches and starts descending again a fair rate.
Ashira dives down to catch Val and also gets caught up in the branches and finds herself nearly pinned to the top of the cieling by the multitude of sprouting branches. with a moment or two work she begins to free herself but the flying part is very difficult.
Apollo begins to climb down the walls and biers as the tree explodes upward and outward and nearly gets scraped off the wall. He soon finds that climbing down the tree will be easier than using the wall now.
Rigging losing his temper issues a regrouping order and is suddenly met with tree branches poking out at him as the large oak tree fills the area.
Cosmo watches hearing the tumult being caused by Ashira and the voice in his head chuckles Highlight to display spoiler: { see what is happening to her, your friends caused this they will be after you next you know. You see it's true. See how the one is already screaming at you?}

Worry start to set in as Ari takes inventory of the remaining members.
Staring at Cosmo, Ari takes in his concerned look and wonders aloud, "What is the problem Cosmo, how can we help?"

Cosmo steps back away from the growing tree so it does not entangle or harm him. He listens and watches as some of the Wildcards go chasing off after Val. Cosmo hears Ari ask him a question.
"Nothings wrong. This um tree growing startled me," Cosmo says with both confusion and distrust on his face.

He escorts Nez to Rigging's side. "We cant go chasing after her, it will only lead us into bad circumstances. It hurts, I know, but we must think of the greater good of the mission. You all know that better than I. With luck she and Bart will be ok, we finish what we started and we all meet up in the end."
"Lets do this, carefully. Also, remember what the seer informed us, especially you, Apollo. Fire is bad, it will alert the town and they will save the tree. Acid or other means, that are not so easily spotted are the key."

Rigging looks on in dismay at the state of the group. "I know you don't want to here this but I think we have to consider retreat. We have just lost 2 of our best fighters, who we can't afford to lose right now. We are down on resources and spells. I think we need to retreat and rethink. We have hurt them badly and they won't be able to restock on those trained quads and priest that easily. If we come back in half a day, we can finish this mission much easier. I think this is the best course but want to hear what you think."
DM kent Wednesday December 12th, 2007 10:33:47 PM
Val continues downward and make the floor of a very darkened room 20x20 that has a tree now growing out of the center of it there is a body of what could be a priest under part of the trees new root system and there is what appears to be a very thick double stone door straight ahead. Something has her cry out to Gargul as she reaches the bottom. Val make will save DC 19
The rest of the Swords regroup back top around Rigging and he asks if they want to continue on in their current condition and down at least one fighter possibly two or regroup and retry the next day.
Cosmo backs warily from the tree and then keeps a bit of didstance between himself and the othher Wildcards.

Val stops short of entering the room. Whatever was inside wasn't good. Probably a few priests or one really powerful one. Something she had to be very careful about before doing anything. Did she summon an elemental now and send him in first? Or just barrel in and bust as many heads as possible.

"Val come back! We are going to leave! Don't listen to the voice in your head. We know you and love you. We have to make sure Bart is OK. Remember Bart? He is your friend."
Rigging looks to the others and says, "Without Bart and Val, we don't stand a chance. We need to leave and rethink this. Nobody ever said it had to be one massive attack. I doubt they will be able to replace everything we killed so quickly. Prepare to move out."

DM Kent Thursday December 13th, 2007 11:31:30 PM
Discusion continues above while below Val gets a solid moment of clarity as Gargul sends her some needed support. Looking around her she finds herself alone and in an unfamiliar area with a palpable feeling of evil pushing in on her.
Ashira AC30 hps 100/120 (Fly, Prot. from Fire, Haste, Enlarge, Woodland Stride??) Friday December 14th, 2007 12:51:08 AM
Ashira nods at Nezamil. She turns to her husband. "I'm sorry dear, but I won't leave her behind. Fall back if you need to, but I'm staying."
Mykael Friday December 14th, 2007 1:47:52 AM
"Captain, either we are worthy of being called Dragons or we are not. Here.. Now... is when and where we find out. If we leave, the whole city will be alerted of what has happened and we will have them all to deal with. We still have surprise on our side in that respect. More quads and priests can be called and teleported in. The plants could be moved. Now is our best chance, probably our only chance."
"With all do respect, Rigging, your thinking is faulty. We must continue for the good of all. We chose this quest, we cant back out because the going is tough, or because our strength is waining. Now is when you find out if you truly have what it takes to be a hero."
"I am staying."
Mykael looks each individual in the group in the eyes, so they may know the truth of his words and the conviction in his heart.
Rigging Friday December 14th, 2007 1:35:08 PM
Rigging smiles at the loyalty and determination of his friends. "OK if that is the decision, I will stand with you, but before we do anything, we have to find out what is wrong with Val and see if we can fix it. I do have a break enchantment scroll but it takes a full minute to cast so you will need to find a way to immobilize her for that time."
Rigging then sighs to himself, "Well they will probably sing songs about the fall of the Wildcards in taverns for years to come."

Greetings Woldians!
I am excited to tell you that BIG, even HUGE changes are coming for The Wold. The Wold is evolving and everyone one of you will be affected. But I'm not going to tell you about it here. I'm just going to whet your appetite:
--A new type of game --Major changes to the website --Greater choice for both DMs and players!
I will begin introducing the new material in the LnB sometime between now and Monday. You will need to start watching that board daily to understand what is going to be happening. This process will be ongoing for a bit, so you really do need to view the Loot 'n Booty board daily starting now.
I'm mass emailing this and also posting it on every game board so everyone sees it.
Enjoy your weekend!

Val (AC 29, HP 96/ 136, Protection from Energy- Fire, Barksin, Haste) Friday December 14th, 2007 11:27:27 PM
Val takes the gem in her off hand and squeezes it tightly. She felt the presence of her god. A feeling she hadn't felt since the father. But this was different. It took away her fear and left her with this utter calmness. Val threw the gem to the ground shattering it and summoning the elemental in the process.
"Destroy this temple. Reduce it to rubble." Val said without hesitation. She was alone in the battle against evil but that was alright. Death was but another step in the journey. Val takes her holy symbol from around her neck and wraps it around the shaft of her warhammer.
ooc: Val uses one of her two elemental summoning gems.

"I agree with the others in that we probably won't get another clear chance at this. We've always been known as a threat and if we leave now they'll never take their eyes off of us.
We also have to make sure that they don't end up with control of any of us, otherwise they could use one of our group against us. They could use their magics to have any one of us say that we are traitors, or whatever or however they want to paint things. So we've got to bring the temple down in order to make sure that one of your numbers has not been left behind under their control."
DM Kent Saturday December 15th, 2007 11:53:04 AM
The final decision is made by the team and they turn as one and "hastily" begin making their way down to the bottom searching for Val.
Cosmo feels apprehensive about the final decision as the voice has been telling him he shold leave and not trust his companions, but somehow finds the conviction to continue on. Highlight to display spoiler: { That's right come to me, bring them to me. And we will all feast on their traitorous blood. Come join your friend who is already here.}
Val removes her holy symbol wrapping it around her weapon and smashes her elemental gem to the ground, beginning the summoning process. (What kind of elemental?) From above she hears the sounds of people calling her name and they seem to be coming slightly closer.
Mykael Sunday December 16th, 2007 8:26:05 PM
Mykael stays one step behind the dwarven cleric, watching over Nez, as the group continues toward fate.
Mentally sending a message to Rigging through his spell. 'Rigging, I have kept watch on Val. Her mind is conflicted and lost. She may be more easily swayed or subject to mental spells than the rest of us. She had issues with the Farie King before, and her relationship with Apollo, seems to be at an end.'
'This isnt the place or the time to try and work any or all of that out. We dont have the time or the safety. All that we can do, for the good of the mission, is to watch over her the best we can. Try to guide and use her confusion to our advantage and thus hers. In truth a Barbarian rage may be what is needed to help focus her toward our enemies and help clear her head.'
'Afterwards, we can take a break and do our best to help her through her issues. Apollo will not listen to me, perhaps not even you. His devotion to her is admirable. However, given thier relationship past or present, his actions may push her, further compounding her internal conflict. I suggest trying to keep him away from her. If she saw him as her rock to help her, then she would have already gone to him.'
Mykael shakes his head in sadness for Val, wishing he had the answers she and Apollo both needed.
Rigging Monday December 17th, 2007 2:55:08 PM
"OK we are staying, we need to work together. Everyone try and stick behind Val and protect her but we need to get moving fast! Same plan as before and obviously since we have lost Bart and Val, we need to be smart and work together.

The party is currently split.
Apollo and Val are at the bottom of the spiral staircase, while the rest of you are at the top of it. The tree actually runs from the cieling above you down to the floor where they are. The branches are sticking out all along the way making the staircase more than a little bit more treacherous.

"right, work together" Ari starts working his way down the tree. "Can anyone maybe carry me, if it helps us get to the bottom faster?"
Cosmo (AC 19; HP 34/63) Tuesday December 18th, 2007 9:55:21 PM
Cosmo waits until everyone starts towards Val. He moves into last in line and makes his way through the tree branches. In one of those rare instances his small size helps him negotiate the branches.
A look of confusion is still on Cosmo's face.
DM Kent Tuesday December 18th, 2007 10:32:09 PM
As Cosmo steps in at theend of the group and starts down the tree, he isn't quite sure if he hears something from behind him or not, but he certainly hears his friend again.Highlight to display spoiler: {Ahhhh, good idea to let them go first, it is less likely they will stab you from behind. Or was it your idea? Perhaps they are trying to leave you behind because they do not trust you...}
Val and Apollo put the already injured and partially pinned priest out of his misery and Val is pretty sure she could not have made all the wounds that showed up on the body by herself. Above she hears the others making their way down the tree and they should be with her in a few more moments (next round they arrive). There is stil the heavy stone double door in front of you.

Slipping and sliding...dodging and weaving. Making her way toward her wayward friend, and hoping she's not in big trouble yet.
DM kent Friday December 21st, 2007 8:15:03 AM
The others make the bottom just as Val reaches the door and ponders how to open it, and Apollo suggests that he be allowed to do that job and moves forward.
There is an overwhelming evil feel down here that is amking everyone's skin crawl and there seems to be a wary presence watching from somewhere or so it feels.
The double door is very very very very large, being nearly 8 feet wide for each door and 12 feet tall. The dwarf whistles when he sees it as he recognizes the dwarven work and that the two doors seem to have been cut from the same single piece of granite. There are old Woldian runes all around the edges and four large runes, two on each door, about shoulder height. There appears to be no handle or lock visible and those who can see invisible things Highlight to display spoiler: {see none either}. Those who can see magical aurasHighlight to display spoiler: { find that the all the runes on the door emanate magic.}
The earth elemental that was conjured by Val's gem begins to follow her orders to destroy the temple and starts ripping into the wall opposite the door, though it doesn't seem to be have quite the effect that you might think it would. In fact the wall almost seems to be repairing itself about half as fast as the elemental is destroying it.
Bart Friday December 21st, 2007 12:15:50 PM
Bart finds himself on the middle of the street his sword is in his hands, he feels very strange in his head. He remember he was in a temple fighting... wait where are my companions... oh no are they dead? I must go back.. The priest must have cast an spell on me i would never leave my friends. Bart looks around and orientates himself he rushes back to the temple. The sameway as the did get in. Trying to be back as soon as possible

Rigging catches up with the others and says, "What! We need to prepare before blundering in. Obviously their is some kind of bad magic going on. Those doors have runes all over them. Lets slow down and use our heads.
I am going to cast another passwall by the door to see if we can avoid some obvious traps. Cosmo, can you summon some creatures to lead our way? They might as well spring the trap. Make sure that they are good so those traps affecting good will go off.
Does anyone else have any ideas? Cast whatever protections you have left. This is gonna be the final push and I suspect the hardest part of the battle.
Rigging will first cast Blink and then passwall from a scroll. (just in case I need it, 75% for the blink)

The elemental continues working on the wall opposite of the door ans works more furiously as it doesn't seem to be getting anywhere fast. Rigging thinks about where to place his passwall and whether to use it in light of the most recent discovery.
Hurrying back into the temple, Bart qickly makes his way through the dead bodies in the dormatory and then into the sanctuary. Surprisingly enough, he has run across no one still living though he does here what might be sounds of combat coming from where the girl's dormatory is supposed to be. just behind the alter and statue of Ga'al the door to below is still open wide and Bart feels a bit of trepidation as he passes through it and makes his way down the stairs. At the bottom he finds himself where he last remembered being and fighting but now there seems to be a tree growing through the middle of the spiraling staircase. he gets the sense that his friends are below.
Nez takes a look at the glyphs on the door and recognizes the symbols around the perimeter of the door as dire warnings and curses dedicating and desecrating the space beyond to evil
Appolo Ac 30 Hp 88 Haste Thursday December 27th, 2007 6:32:13 PM
Appolo look around"Ok why don't we use Cosmos's pets' to trigger those markings.While we gi back up those stairs and waita few minutes before coming back down.Or we can use the passwall but I'm fairly sure that whole wall might just be enchanted and protected in some way.Oh I don't think we have to worry about anyone arriving soon.If there were more of them I think they would be here by now."

it is certainly impeding the safe use of the stairs though not stopping it. Depending on how dexterous Bart is the 40 foot climb down through the tree itself would be quicker.

CDM Jerry: OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT Saturday December 29th, 2007 11:57:34 AM
Greetings Woldians,
I hope you've been keeping up with the changes we've been discussing on the LnB. If not, you have a novel to read amongst all the posts.
Basically, we're doing the following things:
--purging all 2nd characters from everyone except DMs...that's their reward for being a DM. --We're adding a new type game: Challenge Games. It is a 2 year campaign game. We're calling our normal games Career Games.
Anyway, because of the Challenge Games, which will begin ASAP for their first 2 year run, as well as the pruning of the 2nd characters, we'll be holding a vote starting
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 2ND
...and ENDING on
MONDAY, JANUARY 7TH
We'll be voting on one thing only:
Do you want to play in a Challenge Game or a Career Game?
If you choose Career Game, I"ll want a second piece of information. I will need to know if you want to remain in your current game or move to another.
That's it.
Voting is NOT accepted until January 2nd and all votes will be emailed to me here at gericko@gmail.com. I will not accept votes that are made on the LnB, though you may post your vote there if you want.
If you don't vote, then the ACDMs and I will be PLACING you into a Challenge game by default as that is the "new thing" and we're kinda pushing it as a new option.
Let me repeat that and reword it:
If you don't vote you lose your right to choose your game and WILL be placed. Yeah I know that is hard, but we're moving forward and don't want to have votes trickling in weeks later.
This email is just to get your attention in case you haven't been following the information overload on the LnB.
If you have a question about all this or are now totally confused, reply to me only or post on the LnB where you'll get 100s of people telling you what is going on. :)
Or you can IM me on AIM. My handle is Gericko.
Enjoy your day and don't freak out!
CDM Jerry

The ranger grins as she hears Val's comment. "Now that's more like the Val I know! Still, why go through the door when we can go around it?" Ashira winks hoping that whatever was messing with Val has finally left her friend alone.
DM Kent Sunday December 30th, 2007 4:46:05 PM
Apollo suggests that cosmo bring in some extra friends to help with the door and Nez seems to agree.
Ashira watches the Wall in hopes of something happening and then disappointed taps Val with a wand healing some 10 points of damage.
Val looks at the priest and wonders if perhaps they could use its hand for entry through the doors.
From above everyone hears a bit of rustling from the tree, though there is no wind.

Bart starts down the tree and seems to be making fairly good time, but is making a bit of a ruckuss doing so.

Bart hears only the sounds of something apparently groumbling and tearing something up, (earth elelmental) and some much fainter undistinguishable sounds.
Rigging sets the place for his passwall spell and casts it and it appears to work perfectly as it extends 15 feet into and through the wall. Peering into the opening Rigging can see nothing but bed rock and dirt straight ahead of him and to the right and what appears to be more of the same wall they just ate through to the left. The wall on the left does appear to have included at least partially in the spell so it is hard to say how thick it is at this point.
Cosmo's conjured friends appear and wait for their instructions.
Apollo and Nez peer upward and await whatever is making its way down the tree.
Moments later they are rewarded for their efforts as they see a humanoid figure making its way downard through the braches. Bart, Apollo, Nezspot checks to recognize each other. DC 12
Rigging Wednesday January 2nd, 2008 3:38:25 PM
Rigging curses as his spell only tunnels into the earth. "The room is smaller than this one and my spell is wasted. Cosmo, have your friends open the door."

Looking up at the movement in the tree the dwarf tenses for the worst but breaks into a smile as Bart appears
"Good to see ya back ... just in time to " growls Nezamil as he turns back towards the rsults of Riggings spell
"Thats not a good sign " as he shakes his head
"Heya Ashira why don't ya try and knock your way thru the wall where Rigging cast his spell .... might be thin enough along that wall ... might as well try when ya super sized and strong as a dwarf " smirks Nezamil

"What if the door leads to a pocket dimension? Or is a portal itself to someplace else. Someplace within the domain of ga'al? I'm not sure getting this door open is that simple. I think we need to find a live priest and question him. Can anybody speak with the dead? We could ask this guy right here." She says and kicks the dead priests body.

Ashira waits to see what happens to Cosmo's creatures, but is willing to try her hand at battering down the wall if needs be.

"what about if we can get a creature with ghost like abilities that might be able to pass through the wall and tell us about either what's on the other side, or where we need to focus our efforts?"

I have no idea what creatures Cosmo has summoned, but I will go with his norm apes 1-3. or lantern 4-6.
Cosmo's three apes move forward toward the door and begin beating it as hard as they can. Nothing immediately happens and then one of then strikes the symbol in the center of the door. Without a sound the door opens by sliding up into the cieling revealing a lightly glowing hallway.

"Don't worry i'll be right behind ya " as he steps forward towards the door
"Not sure how long it will stay open so we better hurry " growls the dwarf

Watching the apes beat on the door, Ari eyes light up in surprise when the door opens. "It seems we are too intelligent for the, 'just open the door' trap.' Shaking his head in wonder, Ari keeps his senses focused, even though he's wondering how they'll get past the next set of obstacles.
Appolo Friday January 4th, 2008 5:18:17 PM
Appolo comes down from the tree"Yes send the Apes forward and let's wait to see what happens,Remember there isan evil intellegence at work here.I thinkwe should find away to jam that door and keep it open."
DM kent Friday January 4th, 2008 10:20:23 PM
The apes are sent on into the rooms and each takes a straight path from where they enter the door and each meeta a different fate where they end up located on the map.
The first ape makes it 15 feet and then becomes a stone statue. The second ape makes it 30 feet and is incinerated on the spot. The third ape makes it 45 feet and simply vanishes from sight.

"By Domi what happened to them ?? ... i don't like this "
"Can anyone send more apes thru to see if it is continuous ?? ... or hopefully that the trap has been sprung on the apes ?"

The ranger lets out a low whistle as the apes meet their respective demises. She slowly backs away from the door and waits to see if Cosmo has any more pals to send in as she taps her chin thoughtfully. "Well, it could be traps based on alignment...or it could be some kind of path like Val mentioned...or hopefully it's just some plan 'ol regular traps and we can rush through..." Ashira stares absently at the charred corpse of one ape, never letting her eyes off the thing she calls out "Hey Rigging, you got any more of those floating eyeball thingies?"

Rigging Monday January 7th, 2008 12:27:29 PM
Rigging eyes also widened at the impressive display of firepower. He pulls out a wand and activates detect magic looking for any spells that might still be active.
"No Ashira, I don't have any more prying eyes, but maybe I can try and use the dispel magic wand to eliminate any more nasty traps...if I can see them. Everyone hold for a minute and let me see what I see."
Bart Monday January 7th, 2008 1:09:03 PM
Can anyone cast something that can fly or do u think it doesnt matter if you fly or walk?
Must we go this way or is there another, there must be a way to avoid these traps what if we carry a hartseeded priest?

The group eyes the corridor and Val believes she can perhaps make out a pattern in the way the traps went off. (50 exps) INT Roll DC15 to figure it out(I also meant to give you an experience award of 300 for the good role play with the brain invasion)
Rigging pulls out his wand and looses acharge to try and pinpoint what magic might be found in the there and the brightness nearly blinds him as apparently the self repairing walls are most definitely emminating magic as is the cieling and much of the floor, at least as far as can be seen.
Apollo suggests heaving the dead priest into the corridor somewhere.
Mykale and Cosmo seem to be just standing there with there jaws open and nearly dragging the floor.
Up around the corner you hear something that might be a door opening or perhaps closing.

Joining Val in her efforts of tossing coins into the room to discern the path the dwarf fishes out several coins and toss them in concert with Val trying to use the coins as breadcrumbs for a path

Appolo Tuesday January 8th, 2008 2:30:50 PM

Rigging winces as the blinding light flashes into his eyes. He looks down at his wand and grimaces and says, "This place is filled with very strong magic. I think it renews. Val if you think you know the pattern, then lets test it with some summoned creatures."
DM Kent Tuesday January 8th, 2008 10:25:49 PM
With a bit of thought and some well placed coins Nez and Valdiscover more traps and there certainly seems to be a pattern to them. Val is sure she can get to the ned of the hallway or at least to where the turn is without mishap, but is not quite sure what lies around the bend so to speak.
Map is sent. yellow spots are the coin tripped traps which seem to be tripped each time they are hit. The blue dots are Vals projected traps based on the pattern she dicerned.
Val (AC 29, HP 106/ 136, Protection from Energy- Fire, Barksin) Tuesday January 8th, 2008 10:53:12 PM
It's her plan so Val goes first. She keeps tossing copper pieces on the tiles before her making her way down the hallway.
"Just step where the copper piece sits. If I toss one before each step we should make it through unharmed."
Val showed no hesitation, no fear. When you do not fear death it holds no power over you.

Rigging tries his wand and see that it has no apparent effect on ay of the magic in the hallway.
Vall carefully leads the others without mishap down to the turn where they see in front of them about another 30 feet of wide corridor and another set of large double doors.
Nez's hair are just about sticking up on end right about now and it is taking everything he has to continue moving forward. It is ammost like some force is trying to keep him away.

ooc: here is the one problem I have. We clearly lost one player since they have't posted in at least two weeks. What you are saying is that those of us that are posting have zero chance of survival due to circumstances that we have no control over. Any one of us here could decide they don't want to do this anymore and drop off without notice and there isn't anything anybody can do about it. Mykael hasn't posted in who knows how long and Cosmo almost as much. I guess we should just quit now then.

Well one option we have is to go through the doors and we all die. Solves a lot of problems and would be a fitting end to the game.
Cosmo (sub George) Thursday January 10th, 2008 3:19:49 PM
ooc Some confusion on who was posting for Cosmo. He did ask for a sub and we fell down on the job. He will be back next week
Cosmo keeps his wand of animal summoning handy as he follows along behind the others. He is nervous that Rigging's wand seems to be totally ineffective on dimming the windows.
Rigging Thursday January 10th, 2008 3:31:26 PM
Rigging wonders if they are heading into more than they can handle. The magic seems overwhelming, the foes numerous, and the traps ingenious. They are low on spells but morale is high. He is impressed with Val's working out the trap and thinks supporting her is worth the risk. Still he keeps his teleport spell ready for a quick departure.

Ari moves forward with the rest and continues to try to come up with other ideas about what is going on.
"I plan on going along, though I've not felt this unsure before. But this is a major effort against Ga'al and I'm tried of sitting in the shadows as his influence continues to grow."
Todd Thursday January 10th, 2008 5:28:24 PM
Is there any way to note in the posting report who is what, or who are the regular players? I see a robertsc and Walter don't have their email addresses in the profile, evidently. It seems you should be able to email everyone from posting report.

I would note that I've been yelled at a couple of times for lack of posting, and yet I posted no less than what the DM posted.
Has there been a rule change that says you should be posting everyday regardless of whether the DM posts? (you were supposed to only have one post between DM posts when I started)

(ooc: sorry about no post last night. My father was admitted to the hospital last night and had surgery this morning. He is in recovery as of 4 PM.)
The final thirty feet to the door are the hardest thing most of you have done as the nearly papable feel of evil beats against as you move forward. Val actually finds that there either no traps in this last thrity feet or she luckily picked out a path without hitting a single one. She did test all of the sections infront of the door and found them all to be apparently free of traps. There seems to be an odor in the air that is both metalic and sweet at the same time and the temperature has increased significantly as you turned toward the final door.
The doors themselves are plain granite and seem to have a reddish brown tint to them. They are unadorned with the exception of Ga'al's holy symbol which is carved into each one at about where you would normally expect a door handle.

She turns to her husband. "What do you think the odds are that those runes have a boatload of magic associated with them??"

"Before we do anything should we maybe make a circle around Nez? Or can we get some more stuff against evil up?"

Plans are made and questions are asked as the Wildcards stand in front of the door to the Heart of Ga'al.
Further inspection of the door reveals no other writings or glyphs on it other than the two holy symbols of Ga'al.
Apollo is sure that there are no mechanical traps on the door and is fairly sure that if there are any magical traps, that they are likely associated with the holy symbols.
Appolo Monday January 14th, 2008 4:41:22 PM
Appolo looks the door over"Boss no traps I can deal with,pretty sure about the magical though.Now if you want we could go back and get that dead priest or chop down thw tree and use it asa battering ram.You could also cast Dispell magic at the door.Remember that whole room isa trap for non believers and enemies.G'aal himself might be inside waiting for us.""

Val steps forward and pounds her hand onto one of the symbols and is rewarded by first feeling it begin to move and then a black negaitive wave of force hits her and emanates outward hitting everyone else as well.
Unholy Blight - 33 points damaged and physically ill for 4 rounds, will save DC26 for 16 points and 2 round of sickness.
Val (AC 29, HP 90/ 136, Protection from Energy- Fire, Barksin) d20+9=29 Tuesday January 15th, 2008 8:49:14 PM
Val was prepared for the unholy energy. It was expected. Maybe that was why she was able to resist or perhaps her god was with her. (will save nat 20 for a 29) Even as the sickness fills her body she tries to open the door. Or maybe the others will pull her while she held the symbol.
Appolo Ac 30 Hp70/88 Sick for 2 rounds d20+8=28 Wednesday January 16th, 2008 11:01:33 AM
Appolo is about say something when Val touches the door as thw ave of blight hits him he staggers bit and curses,but shruggs off the worse of it."Val haven't you learned not to touch anything around here yet.Be patient."He is pale and obviously not feeling to good."Let's back offa bit and let Cosmos pets push the door all the way open." Will save Natural 20 =28

Feeling the negative energy rush over her, Ashira is able to shrug off most of the worst of it (Will=26 thanks to Nez's Prot. from Evil :) Seeing the doors move slightly, Ashira decides to finish the job and bull rushes the doors (AC=10).
DM Kent d4=2 Wednesday January 16th, 2008 9:45:38 PM
As the door opens a bit and then Ashira hits it with her bull rush the groups is hit with an almost overwhelming odor of death and blood and there seems to be a reddish mist hanging in the air of the room and Nez can tell there is an unholy aura about the room. The room is dimly lit and you can see a huge sized heartseed in the middle of the room, surrounded by what appears to be some kind of grass though something seems a bit odd about it. Ashira Highlight to display spoiler: { Ashira, standing on the grass realizes that the grass is more of a marsh grass and it is very wet under her boots and yet it is kind of slimy at the same time.}
The Heart of Ga'al is horrific to look upon and yet it is hard not to look at. As the door fully opens and you spy it you all feel a sense of fear pour over you. Unlike the smaller heartseeds you are familiar with this plant has 10 flowers of different colors and 2 white flowers poking out of it. There are also six long and tough looking, thorn covered tentacles surrounding the large blood red heart center of the plant. It is so large that it would be impossible to imagin any animal or monster large enough to implant it in.
Will save Dc 20 or stand quaking in fear for 2 rounds.
Val (AC 29, HP 90/ 136, Protection from Energy- Fire, Barksin) d20+9=25 Wednesday January 16th, 2008 10:44:21 PM
Val takes a step toward the giant heart unafraid. She believes Gargul is with her and thats all that matters. His presence broke her from Ga'al's influence. He will see her through this or call her down to serve at his side.
"Do not fear death and this heart will have no power of you. Death is not an end but part of the cycle."
Val hooks her ghost touched warhammer on her belt and draws her bow.
"If anybody has any oil splash it on the heart. My arrows will burn and ignite the oil."
ooc: will save 25.

Rigging hps 80/80 ac 22 d20+11=14 d20+11=20 Thursday January 17th, 2008 1:58:59 PM
Rigging feels the fear start to take him but with a great effort of will, shuts it aside and concentrates on the task at hand. (missed original roll but rerolled with a hero point)
Rigging then pulls out a scroll saying to his companions, "Let me see if I can clear the way a little"
Rigging casts a wall of fire straight down the room putting the Ga'als major heart right in its path (if you figure the line dividing the blocks E and F on the map as the wall of fire, then you have it) The heat side will be to the left trying to protect Ashira.
"Lets see if this churns up anything!"
DM Kent d20+9=11 d20+11=21 Thursday January 17th, 2008 10:01:59 PM
Rigging's wall of fire does something a bit odd and starts out moving from the edge of the room toward the heart seed but then completely stops once it is within 7 feet of it and then seven feet past the heart seed it flares up again and continues to the wall.
With the addition of the light from the fire, those that look more closely at the grass realize that it and you are standing in several inches of what appears to be blood.
Bart and Ari stand in fear as they look upon the mother of all heartseeds.
Mykael ses the heartseed and freezes in fear.
Apollo suggests that the group retreat and find some wood.
Val moves up along side of Ashira on the other side of the fire wall and draws her hammer.
Nez tries to follow Val but then gets a good look at the evil in front of him and finds he can no longer face his fear.
*******
The heartseeds tentacles and flower stems all begin moving and thrashing though it doesnt appear to be doing anything as yet.
Val, Nez and Ashira all notice that they are now covered by a thin layer of what apears to be blood from the heavy mist that fills the room.
Val, Ashira, Cosmo, and Rigging catch a bit of movement from the corner of their eyes and see what appears to be a very fancy priest type step out from behind the heartseed. roll reflex save DC 20 to avoid eye contact with priest. If fail must make fort svae DC 19 or turn to stone.

Rigging is disappointed in his wall of fire spell. He wonders if any magic will effect the creature.
He then sees the priest and shudders as his evil magic runs through him. Rigging feels his joints stiffening but is able to hold off the effects.
Rigging pulls out another spell bring down an ice storm on both the priest and the heart hoping this magic works. He does 12 points blugeoning and 7 points of cold damage (no save) to both.

Bart doesnt know what to do run away or stay and fight. He fears the tree inside he treis to fight his fear but at the moment his muscles dont want to do what a part of his mind sees as his duty, fight annd protect his friends.

DM Kent Monday January 21st, 2008 5:03:18 PM
(OOC fear effect - is standing helplessly unable to do anything but shake in fear.)
Ashira begins rummaging through her back pack looking for something while Val lifts her bow and fires off three quick arrows with her bow and misses three times while Apollo joins her aattcak with some arrows of his own and watches as his second ant last arrows find their mark.
Rigging casts another spell and this one is more effective and watches with satisfaction as ice pelts both his intended targets.
The others fight their fear and pray to various gods and suddenly are able to start moving again.
*****
As Rigging's spell goes off the entire group hears a soft voice inside their head. You get the sense it comes from the plant, NOT the priest.
"Why are you here to disturb me? I have done nothing to any of you and yet you attack me. And you consider yourselves either lawful or good. If you turn back now and return above, all will be forgiven you and you will be allowed to live. However if you persist in your violence and attacks of us, you will be destroyed utterly and forever."
The priest mace in hand begins slowly moving forward, obviously not in a terrible hurry, as if he is waiting for something to happen.

(ooc sorry about that on the fear, didn't know about the no talking action too)
Feeling the knocking of knees lessening, Ari responds to the comments in his head I do not want my countryman to be enslaved any longer. I see no good from what your progeny do to them.
Meanwhile he pulls his bow and uses his silver tipped arrows. (ooc sheet now with me, I believe most of his shots are +7, but will leave unmodified)
Ari's first shot is ineffective as his nerves settle down and he concentrates on the task at hand. His next couple of shots feel better placed (AC 15, 16, 15 unmodified) (d8s are 3 3 and 7 if any hits, if there is anything to add I'd appreciate your help)

Rigging hears Bart's call and though fire spells haven't worked very well in the past, decided to take him up on it and launches a empowered fireball centered on the priest that he can see, but getting the heart of Ga'al in as well.

Val's arrows burst into flame for about 2 seconds before being extinguished. However she does watch her first and last arrows strike the plant. (33 and nat 20)
Nez casts his spiritual weapon and watches with disgust as it misses.
Apollo trys discussion and is rewarded with several of his compatriots attacking the plant.
Cosmo moves to the side of the door and wall and uses a wand on himself.
Ari sends off a barrage of arrows right at the heart of Gaal but watches as they all miss.
Bart throws a dagger which also misses.
Rigging casts his fireball and for a moment it doesnt seem like anything is going to happen and then the fireball envelops the priest and then spreads out in a very strange pattern.
The fireball does however catch Nez in it as well as the HoG and the Priest.
Nez make your saves as posted above in Rigging's post.
The three apes sit there at the door waiting for some direction.
******
The fireball goes off and while the targets, both intended and unintended were eveloped in fire, it is clear that the priest and the HoG did not take full damage.
Almost as if waiting for an attack to happen or someone to move Nez is suddenly the target of the HoG's flower stalks as three different colored rays strik him. Nez feels a whole lot of things happening to his body at the same time
Will save DC 18 or be teleported into the long hallway (random position). Fort save DC 18 or die save for 26 points. Will save DC 18 or fall asleep
The priest charges forward mace pulled back for a massive shot to the large fighter in front of him and connects with Ashira solidly AC 37 for 9 points + 5 point of negative enrgy strikes her as well.
Ashira Fort dc 19 to avoid being petrified.

Making a quick prayer to Alemi, Ari changes tactics and quickly casts a spell. Looking for a possible distraction Ari tosses a suggestion at the priest, "The Swords have infected the heart, and it must be destroyed"
(Spell Suggestion DC 17)(the suggestion is to attack the heart)

Her mirror now in place on her floating shield, Ashira laughs as the priest charges her (Fort.=21). "Gee thanks...saves me the time of marching across the room to kill you!!" With savage strength born of years of hatred she lashes out viciously with her long and shortsword, cutting and slicing at the priest's heartseed. (AC30 for 22, AC34/37 for 30, hero pt. to increase damage)
OOC: Are we still under Haste? Also, shouldn't Ashira have gotten an AoO for the priest charging into her space last round? If so she hits AC37/34 for 43.

Ashira lays into the priest connecting twice and easing some of the tension that has been building upo inside of her. (ooc, A charge does not provoke an attack of opportunity)
The three apes are ordered past and barrel past Val and Ashira only as they do the vanish out of sight and Cosmo can tell they are no longer in existance.
Rigging watches as his thin green ray moves toward the beast and then vanishes without ever touching the HoG. Knowledge arcana roll DC 18 and then Highlight to display spoiler: { After sering the wall of fire , Vals arrows, the strange reaction of the fireball, the disappearance of the apes and his ray, Rigging is pretty confident that there is an area of anti magic in operation covering some area in front of him.}
Out in the hall Cosmo begins casting again.
Nez, feeling a bit battered takes a moment to do a bit of healing and frowns as his SW mises yet again.
Appolo moves into flanking position and as he does so he suddenly feels like he weighs and extra 50 pounds or so and is clearly shocked when his strikes end up not connecting at all.
Bart springs forward to attack the priest but misses.
Ari casts suggestion at the priest the priest takes a second to smile at him from the distance and shake his head.
Val sends another arow streaking toward th e plant and connects.
********
Th priest sees Apollo coming and takes an attack of opportunity to slap at him with his mace but misses as he was smiling at Ari.
His focus back on Val he renews his attack with great zeal connecting once more for 10 points of damage.
The flowers finding no other target to attack once again focus on Nez as three more ras arc aout and connect with him.
Nez feels a shock of negative energy and recognizes the wound causing spell. 20 points, Will DC18 for 10. The second raysends waves of fear crashing into him and he feels like he must escape from the room. Will Dc 18 or flee in fear. The third flower seems to be sending reassuring energy at him and seems to want to make Nez his friend. Will DC 18 or become charmed. The other two stems' rays miss.

The rangers smile curls into an evil mask. "How sad...how truly sad. You know Ga'al is disappointed with you." Sneaking past his guard, Ashira's longsword rips into his chest and then she follows up with a horrible thrust to the heartseed (AC32 for 19, then AC37/37 for 23). The hunter of Ga'al spits in the high priest's face. "Let's see if you're precious little Ga'al can save you now!"
She shouts to the others over her shoulder. "Leave this fool to me! Obliterate the Heartseed!"

Val feels her armor hold under the impact. She holds her breath for a moment and doesn't feel the blood running down her side. Oh she would feel it later. Maybe some bruised ribs but for now the adrenaline kept her focused. She pulled out another arrow and took careful aim. Her lungs burned for air but she still did not breathe.

Ggetting angry as the stalks pester him he continues to let his spiritual mace assault the High Priest and asmile appears to crease the dwarfs face as the mace of force finds its mark
Looking about the room Nezamil tries to understand the structure .... looking for structual points " HEY CAPTAIN CAN WE BRING DOWN THE ROOF ON THIS VILE THING " shouts the dwarf " bring da house down like a mountion of stone "
Feeling battered the Cleric of Domi prays to release Domi's divine might " Domi grant your humble servant rightious strength " (casting righteous might)
AS the Dwarf rises to new heights and strength he readies himself defensivly with his best shielding techniques ( combat expertise +5 to Ac )knowing the stalks will continues their relentless attacks

Rigging growls in frustration as he sees one of his most powerful spells wasted. His intelligent mind goes to work and he realizes that the creature is protected by some kind of anti-magic area. (dc check 18 on the nose)
He will calculate where his fireball went off and where his ice storm seemed to affect and try and figure out if the flower tentacles are in the anti-magic radius. He doubts it since they seem to be doing magic themselves.
He then hears Nezamil's call for the roof and quickly studies the roof to see if a disinegrate spell could bring down the roof. (engineering check 22) If it is possible, he will attack the roof, otherwise he will attack on of the flowers.
Explanation of rolls: Rolled 18 to see if I could figure out anti-magic Rolled 26 natural 20 for an intelligence check to see if the flower tentacles are in the anti-magic Rolled 22 engineering check to check the ceiling Rolled 11 to hit my target (natural 1) Rolled again using a hero point hitting a natural 20 Rolled critical hit and rolled another natural 20 to make critical hit Rolled a 25 to get past spell resistance)

Rigging is pretty sure that the white flower at the front of the plant is what is causing the anti magic zone and thorough some quick considering knows that anything he casts at the HoG this moment, unless he moves, is going to have to enter that field of anti magic. Rigging is also pretty sure that if he used it against the cieling that while some damage might be done, it wouldn't be enough to collapse it. Feeling something has to be done Rigging moves over toward the area behind Nez is in and casts again. He is rewarded by another shrill shreik but the HoG is still there though it seesm to be smouldering a bit where three of the side flowers once were.
Ari casts his spell and while there seems to be no effect from the HoG the bloody gras around the feet of the Priest begins writhing and twisting around him, causing the priest to swear and start muttering to himself.
Ashira connects again and definitle does some damage, but her sword has a wierd feel to it every time she steps forward to strike the priest, sort of like it isn't quite as effective.(Yes, Haste is gone)
Val sends another arrow streaking in and strikes solidly.
Bart too feels that his sword isn't as effective and in fact he feels like everything he owns is quite a bit heavier, but does manage to strike the priest, though he notices that no electricity emmantes from his sword strike.
Nez mutters about the HoG and its flower attacks and goes to attack with the SW again and sends it in to where the priest is now and as he does watches as it vanishes and is no longer there. He then casts his spell and gets ready for the plant's next assault.
Cosmo casts again after sending his Lantern Archon to attack which sends its ray streaking toward the plant, where it connects solidly and a shrill screech emminates from the plant.
(TAC 23)
********
The shrieking Hog starts writing and its flowers, the ones remaining, begin waving violently and a thin greenins ray, that looked very similar to Rigging's comes shooting out at Nez, but just misses and a section of the floor beside him dissipates into dust.
The Priest swings wildly this time and misses twice. there is a fatalistic look in his eyes.

Years of pent up anger and murderous rage spew from the ranger as she whips her blades around in a vicious, but ultimately futile effort to down the high priest. She looks over at Bart, barely able to keep the lust for the kill under control. "Finish him Bart! Let's send this heart seeding son of Ga'al to the Realms of Shadow!"

(OOC - note that Mykael's sheet has 4 pint flasks of acid on it just for the record.)
Apollo goes and rifle's through Mykael's stuff and retrieves some acid he remembers being there, and gets ready to distribute it somewhere.
Nez heals himself with a quick scroll and moves forward a few feet.
Ashira lets her rage get in her way and misses her attacks on the priest.
Bart however manages to connect again solidly and rocks the priest.
Val keeps up the arial assault but once againmisses.
Rigging comes to Apollo's aid in readying the acid.
**********
As Nez moves closer the once quiescent tendrils come active and lash out at the cleric all just missing. He also attracts the attention of two of that side's flowers. he feels negative energy once again flow into him, Cause moderate wounds 15 points Will Dc 19 for 8 points, and feels himself begin to fell disassociated with the area, teleport will Dc 19 or be randomly dropped somewhere.
The third remaining flower targets Apollo as he moves in with the Acid to where Riggin was. Apollo begins to feel fear take hold of him fear will dc 19 or flee for two rounds.
The priest obviously in a bad way steps backwards 5 feet and casts a spell on himself. Some of his wounds disappear.

Cosmo moves into the doorway opening. He is not sure what to do as magic does not appear to be working very well in the room. He decides that he will keep any other creatures from entering the area and let his comrades deal with the heart in the room. He casts SM IV from the wand again.

" don't throw them lets just step next to it and pour it so we don't miss "
With that said Rigging moves forward to the white flower and pours the scid bombs on the pretty white flower ..... hoping the acid will also flow over the Heart of Ga'al too.

Shaking her head in distaste as the priest falls back, Ashira takes a swing due to her enlarged reach, but can't manage to disrupt the priest's spell (AC24). The ranger flies 5 feet forward to cut off further retreat and presses her attack, but once more her blind rage renders her attacks useless. Her smile unpleasant to look at, she encourages Bart to press the attack. "C'mon Bart, you've almost got him. Look, the coward's trying to back out of the fight!"

Cosmo brings a second anter into being and it joins its fellow near the forefront and they attack the HoG though they do both miss with their attack. And Cosmo beigns casting yet again.
Nez speeds things up a bit and moves in closer and attempts to wail upon the flower but misses all three times.
Rigging and Apollo move forward so as to pour or throw the acid on the white flower, putting themselves in the path of the thorny tentacles. The acid is poured and splashed with some success as their is an additional shriek from the plant and the white flower begins to shrivel.
Ashira again finds that she is her own worst enemy as her rage interfears with her attacks.
Bart comes in swinging again and manages to connect once but in doing so his movement takes him forward and he actually feels his magic return to his sword and armor.
Val senda another arrow streaking into the HoG.
******* As Rigging goes forward to pour acid he gets smacked by one of the tentacles (AoO). He feels the thorns rip into his flesh as he fights his way through. AC 31, for 6 points.
Apollo too finds himself whacked solidly by a tentacle and feels the thorns sink into his flesh. (AoO)AC31,10 points
As Bart move forward to attck the priest, he too attracts the attaentin of the HoG's tentacles. (AoO) AC 36, 9 points
Nez finds himself attacked by a tentacle AC 40 crit threat, damage 10 and another flower sends a ray streaking at him TAC 33 and he feels his body begin to stiffen. Fort save DC 19 or turn to stone.
Apollo and Rigging each find themselves the target of tentacle and a flower as well.
Rigging gets torn again by a tentacle AC 26 for 9 points and feels negative energy pour into him TAC 34, Cause moderate, 19 points, will DC 19 for 9 points.
Apollo too gets slapped around by a tentacle. AC 35, 6 points and feels a presence in his mind commanding him to attack Rigging with his sword. [b] Command, Will DC 19 or attack Rigging.
The priest swings his mace and looks Bart right in the eyes as he does so. Fort save DC 19 or be turned to stone. Bart then feels the mace crash solidly into his side and feels negative energy course through his body. [b]AC 34, 8 physical damage and 10 negative energy damage Bart also attracts the attention of 3 of the HoG's flowers. As the first ray hits him he begins to feel quite sleepy. TAC 38, Will Dc 19 or fall asleep. The second ray begins to make his feel really badly as if he just wants to fall apart. Disintegrate - TAC 19 - 82 points damage, Will DC 19 for 17 points. As the third ray strikes him he feels a presence in his mind that commands him to turn ans attack Ashira. Command TAC 24, Will Dc 19.
Several tentacles lash out at Ashira trying to catch hold of her and two manage to snag her AC 30, 31 for 15 points. Alarmingly the two tentacles that snagged her seem to be trying to pull her into the HoG itself. Grapple 34 Base att + Gargantuan + strength.

(there was 4 flasks of acid , i figured we could only our one per round with 2 each held by Rigging and Appolo), i of course could be wrong)

He then yells for Ari"Ari go find some oil lantern oil.I'm going to chop this thing up then havea barbeque." Appolo swings 6 times at the vile creature. Connecting with it twice.He watches as he cuts in to it and the acis continues to eat away at the creature causing more damsge.

The acid keeps doing its work and another flower falls, leaving only 6 apprently functioning in addition to the white one at the rear.
Ashira gets pulled into the center of the Hog and feels the thorns sink ever deeper into her. She can actually feel the blood being siphoned out of her. 3 points constitution loss
Nez fights through the HoG's grapple attempt but does'nt mangae to connect with his own attack.
Val avoids being stoned and takes another shot with her bow but the arrow flies wide.
Rigging shakes off the magical attacks of the HoG and tries to rally the troops to finish the HoG off.
Apollo also avoids the HoG's magical assault and at Rigging's urging continues his slicing and dicing.
Bart manages to make his save and doesn't fall to pieces but he isn't feeling too well and drinks a potion.
Cosmos fourth lantern arrives and takes up position.
********
As the fight coninues there is a slidind / grating sound heard from above. It isn't really loud enough to warrant any major attetion but suddenly the entire room is being soaked, by what appears to thick rusty smelling rain. It wouldn't seem that being covered in blood would be that much of a problem but the Wildcards feel each drop as a burn eating into them like acid 7 points damage to all. The HoG stills for a moment as if relishing the downpour and soaking it in and then actively begins attacking again.
Rigging is struck by one tentacle AC 23 for 10 points as is Nez Ac 34 also for 10
Two other tentacles miss Nez and Apollo, but the lone unoccupied tentacle on the otherside connects solidly with Bart AC 34 for 12 points
The flowers send out their magical beams and two just miss Bart. The remaining four each targets one of the other Cards.
Nez is struck by a ray and begins to feel chilled all over. Tac 36 - Finger of Death Fort save Dc19 or die save for 19 points.
Rigging feels a presence begin to enter his brain. Tac 24 - Charm- Will DC 19 or attack Apollo.
Apollo starts to feel a bit sluggish Slow -Tac 29, Will Dc 19 or be slowed to 1/2 speed.
Val feels negative energy begin to flow through her. Inflict moderate wounds - Tac 26, 24 points, Will Dc 19 for 12[/b]

Does the blood rain affect Cosmo since he is not in the room? If it does affect him, can he see how far back from the room where it is not "raining"?
*** No it doesn't effect Cosmo as he isn't in the room. As far as he can see the "rain" is falling through out the entire room.

Val doubles over as the negative energy leeches the life force from her. Her lungs labor to draw breath, vision blurry for a moment. She staggers but does not fall. Val draws an arrow firing with instinct and reflex. Her arrow ignites in flight and much to her delight, explodes upon impact.

All but Cosmo and Ari take an additional 4 points of acid damage, but the bloody acid ceases falling for now.
Bart makes a hasty retreat and joins Cosmo outside of the room and drinks a potion.
Cosmo uses his pearl and retrieves a spell.
Ari searches the lower level and while there is some wood available the only likely source of oil is above in the barracks typs rooms.
Val fires off her arrow and is rewarded with the satisafaction that its magic worked as it hit the HoG.
Nez finally connects with the Hog and does some damage.
Apollo also connects once and finally the Hog looks a bit worse for wear.
With the additional damage inflicted another two flower stem seem to no longer be able to function leaving only four blloms plus the white one at the rear.

Nez is missed by the two tentacles that try to capture him, However Apollo is struck by one AC 30 for 11 points

Rigging winces in pain as the vaious assualts hit him both in mind, body and maybe even soul. He feels the ray hit him and his body starting to get stiff but is able to shake it off. (fort save 28)
Rigging is at a loss on what to do, he spells are gone, and even if he had them, the anti magic shell is protecting the Heart of Ga'al.
All Rigging can think to do is to shout encouragement. "Hack the thing down. For the glory of Alemi and Domi! Hack it apart!"
(OOC not sure of my current status on hps, spells still standing ect.)
Rigging will make sure he is out of the anti magic area and suck down a potion of cure moderate healing getting 16 hps back.

Everyone takes another 4 points damage due to acid.
Weak as she is Ashira manages somehow to break free from the grapple. she is weak and a bit disoriented and slowed to half speed but alive.
(ooc I have Ashira at 64 hit points before deductions for 5 points of con loss, and she is slowed.)
Nez feels himself failing and somehow manages to resist falling to pieces and continues to battle the HoG causing significant damage to it and cutting another flower stem clean off.
Bart too manages to connect again and adds to the now very serious looking wounds that the plant is showing.
Cosmo recovers yet another spell while Rigging wonders what he should do next. Befuddles perhaps by the destruction happening around him to his friends he realises that where the area where there once was no magic, magic seems to be working again. (see post of over a week ago)
Apollo chugs a potion and feels a bit of vitality return, as does Rigging.
Ari makes it upstairs and makes his way to the barraks area where he is able to procure 8 flasks of oil.
******
It is obvious that the HoG is not doing to well as of its three remaining rays only one seems to strike its target Val TAC 36 will dc 19 or be slowed to 1/2 speed.
In addition only one tentacle manages to reach out and touch someone and she was kind of hard to miss standing in the middle of the plant. Ashira AC 38 for 7 points

Weak for the heavy damage from the heart and grappled, the ranger does her best to break free of the vine that holds her fast. Grapple=29 (last hero pt. makes it a 38)
OOC: I'm sorry, we had some house, computer and RL issues. I'm not really sure what HP Ashira's at...I know she's gotten hit with a couple of Con drains.

Rigging 10d6(5+3+2+6+4+2+2+6+6+6)=42 Wednesday February 6th, 2008 10:00:14 PM
Rigging decides to use one of his last offensive spells and hits the heart of Ga'al with a fireball doing 42 points of damage. He will be sure to try and keep his friends out of the area of effect.
OOC I am not sure what my hitpoint total is right now. Can you update me?
(currently Rigging is at 26 hps)

Drained and bleeding massively, the ranger is hit hard by the tentacle attack. Her arms grow heavy and she finally falls unconcious, unable to continue the fight. Her floating dying body begins to slowly fall toward the heart of Ga'al.
Bart Ac 32 30/95 d20+20=28 d20+15=32 d20+10=25 d20+20=30 Thursday February 7th, 2008 3:14:19 AM
Once again Bart attacks he misses with all of his attacks (ac28, ac 32 (near miss), ac 25) frustrated bart steps away a bit so his friends have more space to attack hopefully they have more luck
