Justin Webber (DM) Catacombs Thursday August 5th, 2004 8:53:31 PM
The group after gearing up is lead through some hall ways till they reach a small room where High priest Bale looks to a heavy wooden door set into the floor. After alittle bit Bale leans down and undoes the heavy masterwork lock on the door and lifts the lid with some heavy grunting. After getting the lib completely up you notice a thick sheet of metal attached to the under side of the door.
Bale looks to the group and smiles, "I'm sorry, I forgot about your one question. You see, the armory is a few rooms from this one and it was one of the rooms raided by the drow elves."
Bale motions to the large stone stairs leading down some dozen feet. The steps are some what sttep but also roughed on the top for some footing and they look dry so there is little chance of slipping. You do notice after a long way of darkness that below is light flickering and Bale grins, "We have placed magical torches to light the catacombs some months back before the drow attack. I guess they don't feel like taking them down since we already know they are there."
You hear no sounds coming from the stairway that is revealed yet anyway and see no sign of threat as of yet either.
(OOC:Thank you for going to keep track of the items and such Dom.)
Tyal [HP: 49/49, AC: 21] [darkvision] Thursday August 5th, 2004 9:54:45 PM
Tyal gathers up his gear from the room that he left it in and double checks to make sure that everything is adjusted right. He makes his way down to the catacombs entrance to stand with the others.
The darkness does not hinder him much as he can see quite well in the darkness. Positioning himself further towards the fore of the group this time, he takes a spot about the third or fourth person in. "Watch the ceilings as well...a favored tactic of the drow that one is." He smiles in the coming light as his armor chagnes to a darker set of clothes that gives him alittle more edge.

The satyr takes up a position near the front of the group as they move. (move silently 32, listen 27 and spot 35, low light vision) He leaves no tracks as he moves and looks for signs of recent movement (survival 31). He walks with his quarterstaff out, uncomfortable with all the talk of the abberant elves known as drow. These creatures were supposedly the most ruthless beings of the Underworld. Never having met a 'real' drow, Hart is uncertain what to expect. 'This party has a drow. I think. He doesn't seem all bad.' He thinks to himself.
Spirit hides in the satyr's hood.
Loran keeps his eyes open. (spot 40, dark vision and low light)

Then back to Hart with a pat to his shoulder, "I'll be right behind you." Marek descends the stairs on Hart's heels, weapon at the ready. [Spot 5]
Kashmari d20+2=14 Friday August 6th, 2004 4:14:25 PM
Kashmari is not overly worried about the dark at the moment. She knows that she will see well enough all in all. Also she is in a very good mood due to Henri's very favourable reaction towards herself earlier.
She takes a position in the middle of the group, but closer to the rear.
She sifts through her memories for any pertinent info on the drow, and doesn't really recall anything of great import about them at the moment. (wis 14)
Kashmari pays close attention to the area around herself - including the ceilings like Tyal mentioned. She is carrying several of her daggers and her morningstar; the daggers can be drawn and ready in a moments notice.

Justin Webber (DM) Catacombs Monday August 9th, 2004 7:08:54 PM
You all slowly move down the stairs and for a few mins except those who can see in the dark and the others who have some source of light you otherwise are in darkness and there is no sound but the occasional dripping of water somwhere in the distance of the catacombs.
At the bottom of the stairs you see that their are indeed torches hanging on the walls at regular intervals that have a flickering flame but do not seem to be burning down. A closer look will find thatthe flames also do not produce heat.
High priest Bale nods as he glances at the torches and whispers, "Glad to see they are still burning and not been ran off with. Took alittle money to afford all the materials to make thos."
The hallway extends a good 20ft ahead and then turns left. The walls a roughly carved and also contain pockets here and there where mostly wrapped bodies lay, clearly of dead clerics of Bahamut that were layed to rest in the catacombs. Some of the wrappings on some of the bodies have rotted away and here and their skeletal hands hang down which some have rings on them while others don't. The ones with rings on them look to be of little to no valued rings.
You still hear nothing ahead of you or even see nothing yet that looks out of place. The floor is wet but not really slick and this leaves no trace of dust or anything that would leave tracks.

Glancing to the others he shakes his head. "This has been a little easy so far." With a look around again he smiles as he silently hopes for some fun. "So the armory is which direction??"

Everyone moves on slowly through the hall way thats large enough for two people to stand side by side and still beable to fight.
You still hear nothing and the priests who are laid to rest here are all in the alcoves, some in better shape then others since the moisture and water in the catacombs sets a nice non presurving factor.
When you round the corner up ahead you can see down the 80ft hall ahead of you and see that the hall leads to a large open room ahead. The room looks to be well lit and High priest Bale looks up ahead and whispers, "That was the room we stored some of our relics in to honor those buried here. I don't think there was anything they would want in there though but we better be careful none the less."
Uphead you hear dripping of water but now and then the voice of a drow speaking though. They seem to be talking about the items they have found in the room or something else. (For those who can understand drow, you will know they are speaking of the junk relics here and how none of it's worth much.)

Kashmari d20+4=15 d20+4=23 d20+9=27 d20+9=23 Wednesday August 11th, 2004 5:49:42 PM
Kashmari peers into the distance to see who is speaking. The voices are not very loud so she moves nearer to the stone walls which should carry the sound better. She recognizes the language as being somewhat similar to a 'trade language' that she had learned long ago. Hopefully she will be able to understand a few words in order to get the gist of what they are talking about.
Kashmari pulls up her hood just a bit, but not enough to muffle her hearing. She stays close to the wall and very quietly edges closer to the room where the voices are coming from. She makes certain not to draw the attention of her companions as she sneaks down the hallway; being fairly well hidden in her stealth. Marek's clamour is more than adequate to conceal most anything she does.

Hears some mumbling but too faint to understand. But Marek who make silent jesters and moves a head, is making a lot of noise. Henri figures that with marek making noise, the paladin might as well follow behind him so Marek will not get killed.

Tyal realizes that the voices ahead are not any language that he knows and looks to the others to see if anyone knows anything. He tries to move as quietly as possible with his armor on and winces with the noise he makes. Still he figures maybe some of it is masked by the others in heavy armor as well.
He keeps his morningstar at the ready as he moves his small shield tighter to himself. It would appear that they group was preparing for an attack on the drow. Maybe they would catch them unawares, but not likely.

Justin Webber (DM) Drow Room Thursday August 12th, 2004 4:39:50 PM
The group slowly inches forward and when you get to peak into the room you see that the drow have been to busy to even notice anything at the moment.
Infact four drow are in one corner with a set of knucklebones and are rolling them and holding friendly or as friendly as drow get, wagers.
Another six drow are looking at a pile of what they said is junk and tossing pieces here and there. Among the pile of junk that you can see is mainly brass candle holder, some pottery, a few holy symbols but mainly made of wood or brass.
The room is very large and other then the junk and the few drow you see the walls are all lined with small pockets where a dead cleric lays wrapped in it's slowly rotting cloth. Some once again are not covered well as the cloth is rotten away and down one wall water steadily drips into a small forming pool. Straight ahead of the room is another doorway like the one you guys are coming from.
Aelanthir sees nothing invisble currently and so far you are un-noticed.
(OOC:Just to make a comment since I'm not sure if I miss read Eiras post. There is no other way into the room besides the entrance across the room. Moreless no way for you to get any other attack on the drow beyond the way you guys are coming.)

She will not enter to room proper, but linger at the enterance. Kashmari is too intent on listening to what the drow were saying to move as silently as she had before.

The group looks to hang back abit and prepare themselves when Fern flings her dagger at one of the drow's, hitting the man in side but causing little damage really.
Marek moves into the room and swings his chain, taking another of the gambling drow with the wicked attacks.
Namfoodle takes aim and fires a crowwbow quarrel and hits one of the drow looking over the temple items. Once again the attack causes little damage other then make the drow mad.
Aelanthir sees no spell casters in the group of drow in the room so just moves in as does the others of the group except those hanging back or hiding in shadows.

Kashmari concentrates on whichever drow is closest to both Namfoodle and Aelanthir (eventhough he is indeed invisible, Kashmari is making an "educated" guess on her brother's position). She quiets her mind and concentrates on kindling a flame on that particular drow's skin. That hapless drow is suddenly covered in a burning, silvery sheen of goo and the room echoes with the sound of flames popping and crackling.

The fight is officially on and almost everyone joins in to the attack as others move to find a good attack position etc.
Marek has moves in and attacked the drow gambling in the corner. Injuring a most of them more then they already were from previous attacks. (Drow#1,2,3,4)
Hart rushes in and attacks one of the drow who was looking over the junk, scoring a hit on him as Hart's owl also tries to attack but misses. (Drow#7)
Henri moves in and attack one of the gambling drows. Cutting a nasty gash on the drow. (Drow#3)
Namfoodle begins playing a song to help his companions out in the fight.
Kashmari concentrates on one of the drow and soon the drow is hollering as his skin begins to turn red, etc. (Drow#7. Saying etc since Eunice is doing a great job with the description.)
Mykell moves in and attacks one of the drow gambling also, slashing a nasty cut into it. (Drow#4)
The others are moving etc so sorry for not making more of a comment for now.
Drow#1 turns and grabs his longsword from the floor as he does. With lightning like slashes the drow slashes at Marek. (Can hit AC:25/25 Damage:5/11)
Drow#2 turns and also moves in on Marek, growling at him and savagely slashing at him as it speaks in drow, "You'll pay over worlder!" (Can hit AC:25/17 Damage:12/5)

Drow#6 also charges Hart, slashing at him in unison with Drow#5. (Can hit AC:22/12 Damage:9/8)
Drow#7 is alittle addled by the sudden burning of his skin so doesn't make a attack at the moment.
Drow#8 and #9 charge in at Tyal as he is to far away to move and attack all in one round.
Drow#10 has a suprise maybe not expected by everyone and a hand crossbow suddenly appear in each of his hands and he fires a pair of bolts at Namfoodle. (Can hit AC:30*crit missed*/10 Damage:5/6)
(OOC:A few things I have missed previously and sorry for that. Loretta, the catacombs is offlimits for buying stuff in this game. Drow elves also have their own language plus a hand language that they use.)

Kashmari continues to concentrate on psionically burning the drow enemy. She lets nothing distract her as she remains hidden just beyond the doorway; with an overview over the drow she is burning. The drow should be in complete agony, not to mention going half-insane watching himself blister, smolder and smoke!

Marek shifts and keeps his feet moving under him as the enemy swords find thier mark. A deep cut to his left arm, a line across his cheek and another mark to the shoulder. Marek quickly sidesteps and tries to keep some distance between himself and Drow#1 [Drow#1 is Dodge opponent] Biting down the pain, Marek snaps the great chain repeatedly, his arms pumping quickly in and out sending strikes at stomach level toward the 4 drow.

Tyal meets the charging drow with a smile that quickly turns to a sneer. "Inana be praised and blessed." He turns his shield to help in warding off the one drow as he brings his morningstar crashing in at the other one (hit: 25, damage: 10). He then takes a five foot step back to put some distance between his attackers and himself.

Marek feels his knees slack and the world about him tunnels to darkness as the 2 drow slice past his defenses. The pain is there, but not much, a small thanks on Mareks lips, At least they use sharp weapons
Before he falls though a silver light shines into the darkness about him and he feels a resurging strength coarse into his frame. Spitting blood from his mouth, "Not yet Gargul." he pushes back into the 4 drow, unemotional and unrelenting teh chain lashes out again at the four. [Hit AC13/26/18/31*crit*29* Dmg Miss/16/miss/36]

Tyal is able to take the first blow from the drow off his shield, but the second finds a way past his guard. Feeling the bite of steel into his flesh he concentrates harder on the other approaching drow and is able to block both blows with his shield.
His next attack goes wide of his target and he feels the onset of an ill omen. This does not bode well for the group against these more highly skilled fighters.

Kashmari focuses the burning on Drow#7 and it falls to the ground, screaming before going still and silent.

High priest Bale frowns at how well these drow have done on the party and mumbles under his breath slowly as he closes his eyes a moment. Soon each member of the party feel a sudden shimmering aura around them, giving them a +4 to AC.
(OOC:Brent, to help you out I will explain the combat alittle. The drow are high enough level to have two attacks in a round. Each attack to hit and damage is split by the / and the * show the critical to hit and in the damage area it shows the total damage done if a critical hits. I hope this helps out.)

I do not want any possible problems for Woldian gods used, the catacombs are off limits, you must buy stuff through me and during the correct times like between modules when you have access to a town or shops. I'm not aiming this at anyone but just making sure no possible problems arise in the future. Thank you all and I hope you all are and have been enjoying the game. I have many plans layed out for all of you and can't wait to see how you all continue on your character's path.)

She focuses on whatever drow she can see retreating out the back-door. After concentrating more intensly than usual she sends a burst of energy against the fleeing drow hopefully knocking him off of his feet. Oddly there is no tell-tale display this time.

Tyal takes a five foot step back away from the drow as they start to retreat. His eyes narrow as he takes in the situation and speaks up. Switching his morningstar to his other hand he gestures out at fleeing drow.
A concussive explosion of sound detonates in the doorway of the retreating drow. The next round he will either press the attack on the drow before him or take after the others. He does take the time to give Marek a nod of thanks for his help.

Fern attacks Drow#6, injuring him and causing the drow a nasty wound
Eiras moves and also attacks Drow#6, increasing the amount of damage on the drow and making him try to speed up his retreat faster.
Henri attacks Drow#3 and succeeds in injuring it more also.
Kasmari's attack succeeds in hitting her targets but all of the drow but Drow#8 seem to shrug off the damage from the blow.
Hart attacks and hits drow#6, weakening him farther, the drow now looking almost dead.
Aelanthir goes invisible and moves.
Marek swings his chain and the remaining retreating drow that he was damageing and succeeds in injuring Drow#1 before he turns his attention on Drow#9 and injures it more.
Tyal concentrates his attack on the doorway going into the hall leading to the next room that the drow are retreating through and injures and stuns two of the drow but the other is able to shrug it off.
Mykell moves and attacks, sending Drow#6 to the ground dead now.
The drow's retreat suddenly seems to stop and you hear a loud voice now which you have never heard before speaking.
Woman's voice, "*HIC!* hey, shoe polished covered surface elves....WOW *HIC!* I heard you elves had interesting customs and parties but this is interesting *HIC!*"
Out of the tunnel entrance, moving between two stunned drow comes a woman dressed in very dirty rags and carrying a large bottle with something in it that she drinks in huge swigs. She looks to the drow and picks the remaining one near the tunnel who isn't stunned to approach, staggering all the way.
Woman, "Come on, give me a quick dance *HIC*....I heard you surface elves have great dancing skills."
The drow the woman approaches seems finally to get over the shock and anger flares as the drow is refered to as a surface elf and the drow swings it's sword twice and with fierce speed at the woman.
To everyones suprise the woman stumbles under the first attack and into the stumble twists to the side to be misses by the second attack. As if on complete accident the woman turns and her hand which clutches the bottle slams into the back of the drow's head, "Ohhh! *HIC!* I'm sooo sorry...are you okay?"

Kashmari Wednesday August 25th, 2004 2:50:46 PM
Kashmari isn't really sure what to make out of the terribly drunk woman. She finds her to be unbelievably common and is thankful that she shares no relations with the woman. Needless to say Kashmari cannot believe that the drow warrior hasn't diced the drunk woman to pieces yet. 'Drunk and incredibly lucky!' The young Half-Elven woman is becoming rather certain that she and her companions must be in some form of Divine Comedy...
"So, do we stay for the show or rid the world of a few more bad apples?", Kashmari asks as she taps her foot petulantly.

Fern steps over and aids Hart with Drow #5 causing a slight wound.
Eiras disappears then moves over near the back of Drow #3.
Hart watches as both attacks miss and Loran causes a glancing blow across the forehead of Drow #5.
Sir Henri stands there in complete defense.
Tyal lands a solid blow on his opponent.
Kashmari wonders who is this new person showing up.
Aelanthir appears behind Drow #9 and stabs him in the back giving a nasty wound.
The strange woman staggers around the two drow (#1 & #8)nest to her while they continue to swing at her when one of the drow lands a glancing blow on her. When this happens you see her lash out with a quick series of blows on that drow #8 knowcking him to the ground. She then looks at the prone drow and says "look at what you've gone and done this was my only shirt."
Drow #5 swings at Hart hitting with a glancing blow. (hit AC 14 dmg 0, hit AC 21 dmg 10)

Hart twirls his staff above his head, with the intent of opening that drow skull wide open. (AC 14 and 23, for miss and 11 damage)
Spirit gets onto the satyr's horns and growls menacingly at the drow.
Loran again does a flyby. (AC 16, miss) He screeches in disappointment, hopefully deafening the drow in passing.

Tyal takes both blows off his shield and smiles at the drow as he spots Namfoodle move in behind him. He once again brings his morningstar smashing in at the drow as he gets nailed in the back. His blow is true and well placed but lacking much power behind it.
He glances around at the group and shakes his head at the happenings. "Sing out if you need healig." He knows that some of them are most likely in need of it and he can help in that area as well as fight.

(OOC:Sorry for such a late post and this post is going to be kind of sucky since it has began to storm some outside. An here I the weather says no storms. Starting to think weather men don't know nothing.)
Everyone's attack succeed in injuring the drows they fight more except those who miss.
With combined efforts drow#3 is dead and the other drow are trying to fall back more and not put up as much of a fight.
The drunk lady who was just lightly knicked wobbles some and in the process delivers 3 vicious kicks to the drow she had knocked down previously and the drow doesn't move after that.
The drow remaining are in to big of a hurry to get away and have no intentions of attacking anymore at the moment.
High priest Bale looks to Marek and nods as he hears the man's words, "Certainly sir." Bale casts a spell quickly and with a gentle touch Marek feels healing powers flow through him again. (Healed:22 hit points)

With the cobined attacks of the group and the drunken lady the last of the drow's lay on the floor, most dead but one uncouncious as the drunk lady had landed a nasty wobbly spin kick to it's head.
The drunken looking lady looks to te group and suddenly falls back against the wall as she pulls a bottle from her pocket and pops the cork, sipping it as she waits for the group to decide on what to do next.
High Priest Bale looks to each person and pulls a wand and walks around tapping each person as many times as it take to fully heal everyone with the wand.

Marek grabs the unconscious drow elf and begins removing everything he is wearing and setting it off to the side. To no one inparticular, "Go through thier packs and pouches." Marek will then tie the sole prisoner, albeit poorly [use rope 4]

Aelanthir quickly activates his wand becoming invisible then carefully starts down the passage that the drow tried to head down. Aelanthir goes no further than 200 ft down the corridor or untill he comes to a door or another passage. As he travels along Aelanthir will be looking around. Aelanthir will return to the others after around 25-30 minutes. On his way back to the others Aelanthir will lightly dust the passage at random intervals with flour.

As she works she says jokingly to Marek, "Why Marek, you are proving to be a man after my own heart."
Kashmari will 'keep tabs' on where the drunk female is while she checks the bodies.

He looks around at the rest of the group and then looks back and flashing her his most winning smile(Diplomacy 20) "Namfoodle would say that it is nearly time for celebration but it appears you have already begun." winking at her slyly,"Namfoodle wonders what is it that you are called by,for if Namfoodle is to include you in his epic your'e name is needed." He begins to chuckle and starts laughing,"I can't do it right now. I wll do it later for all of the fans,but right now I can't focus. What is your name and where did you come from?"

You find nothing of interests in the since of anything ivign you any clues of what they are doing here for sure. (You do find some misc items, coins, etc but since I do not have them rolled up yet please be patient.)
Aelanthir goes invisible and scouts out ahead, finding this tunnel to be more twisty then the previous onces and about half way down it he does find a small side entrance but wood support beams here have been broken as if someonering their retreat or something. Either way (Spot:18) will show that the beams have fist and well placed kick marks with quite abit of force. Something only a few martial artists could do.
The lady shoots Henri and dirty look and speaks now but without a hint of a hiccup, "I'm not a drow I'm a normal human just like you."
The lady now looks at Namfoodle also and smiles at him, showing no signs of drunkness what so ever as she speaks and makes a gentle hand gesture to him of hello, "My name is Viera. A long ways into the underground is a small drow city that I excaped from. I was captured and put there many years ago and been biding my time to excape. Luckily my training and the extreme work they have us do kept me in shape to excape."
Hart Thursday September 2nd, 2004 3:46:13 PM
Looking at Fern and Marek, the satyr just stops what he's doing.
Then turns as the lady says the Metal One is a normal human. "Normal human?! Ees there such an animal? I don't believe wot she says." The fey just stares at the woman intensely.
