Desdichado leans in close to the others in the wagon. "So, anyone know where this place is? It will look a little suspicious if we start asking around."
Danko Pureheart (Yves) -- AC 26 ( mage armor 30) -- CMD 36 -- HP 110/110 Tuesday May 31st, 2022 4:50:27 PM
Danko follows along and uses the hat of disguise when appropriate to look like Parsons.
He doesn't say much. Nods when appropriate and enjoys the subterfuge.
He shrugs at Des' question. Sounds like another half baked, fly by the seat of our pants adventure. He just hopes that no one yells at him this time if he has to kill a bunch of charmed folks.

Nira concentrates on keeping the Veil spell active while someone else drives the wagon. "Ram is right. We have directions to the warehouse. Best we go straight there without any detours. I'm not sure how long I can keep this illusion up"
Gaffer - Courtney - HP: 144/144 AC: 25(T:16/FF:20) CMD:31) d20+15=34 ; Wednesday June 1st, 2022 7:25:47 AM
Gaffer will offer up a casting of Animal Shapes to change Hmerrin into a horse, while he himself takes the position of the driver for the meantime, allowing Nira to focus on the spell.

Warehouse Karri - DM Dan K Wednesday June 1st, 2022 2:43:41 PM
The party decides to head directly to the warehouse district and Gaffer masterfully turns the wagon down Front street. The street runs along the outer wall of Karri with smaller streets shooting in towards the heart of the Emerald Kingdom capital. There is one other wagon in front of you, nearly 200' and the next wagon that might come up behind you is going to be at least 10 minutes back. The merchants without wagons all stayed on Main Fair Lane, which leads directly into the market square.
Perception DC 20 Highlight to display spoiler: {The wall seems to have patrols of 2's moving along, though they rarely if ever are looking into the city, but they would surely react to a commotion}
Front street makes a slight angle and soon empties through a double wagon wide natural tree like walled area. the opening is unmanned and gives you the impression is to hide the more unsightly utilitarian buildings of the warehouses within over anything else.
The warehouse area looks to consist of nearly 20 low wide rectangular buildings. As you make the first turn to head towards he specific building Parsons directed you at, you can easily see that not all of the buildings have guard. In fact most do not. Parsons clearly stated the writ was needed at the building and so it is a certainty that the warehouse you are headed towards does. The wagon will be making the final corner in less than 5 minutes...
Desdichado stays alert as they enter the square. "Patrols up top," he mutters, "they aren't paying attention down here right now, but those could be trouble once the fighting starts."
He really wishes the group had a plan other than "whack at the bad guys" right now.
Hmerrin (MikeK)(HP 178/178 AC:33 T:19 FF:26 CMD:35) Wednesday June 1st, 2022 6:01:04 PM

Ramirez (BrianZ) AC30/19/23 HP122/122 CMD32 Wednesday June 1st, 2022 9:22:28 PM
Ramirez nods to Des' comment about the patrols without looking up. There's not much we can do about it except show proof after. We just need to be cautious to limit the damage to the enemy and not hit any bystanders or charmed help. On the plus side, we should have a chance to take them by surprise.

Gaffer keeps his eyes on the road, though with Hmerrin in front the wagon doesn't require too much from him. He speaks gently to the others "If someone does want to invisibly look ahead, we have space on the road to slow the carts roll."
Warehouse Karri - DM Dan K Thursday June 2nd, 2022 4:23:42 PM
The group rolls up on the warehouse and can see 4 elf in half plate standing, for the most part, at attention about 5' from a large set of double doors designed to allow a large wagon to enter.
Gaffer pulls the wagon to a stop and 2 of the elf guard approach, the first stopping about 5' back and to the side of the horse team and the other walking up to Gaffer's side. He asks for, and Gaffer supplies the writ. The guard takes 2 steps back and begins examining the document. About 2 minutes later he looks up and steps forward to hand the writ back to Gaffer. "Hold here while we get the doors open."
He turns and points his hand towards the main doors and gives a nod to the 2 men furthest back, who turn and step through a small door inset to the main ones.
About 1 minute later the main doors open, by sliding on rails to the left and right. The area beyond appears to be a loading and unloading area. Barrels, crates, horse tack and saddlery equipment is stacked and lined up. The two elf reappear and wave Gaffer and rest in.

Nira keeps the Veil spell up, hopeful that none of the guards see through it.
She wonders whether any of them are raks. Perhaps they all are? Things could get interesting real quick if that's the case.

" I have a bad feeling about this... "
Danko climbs off the wagon and looks for cover, or at least some shadow to hide in.
Gaffer - Courtney - HP: 144/144 AC: 25(T:16/FF:20) CMD:31) Friday June 3rd, 2022 9:02:24 AM
Gaffer dutiful leads the wagon forward into the loading area.
Once inside, he climbs down and takes a moment to still the horses, patting Hmerrihorse and saying as if calming the creature, "Just remember boy, if you want to move about, stamp your feet a little instead."
He'll then move towards the back of the wagon to start unloading, looking to his companions for any leads to act otherwise.
Desdichado (Ryan) [HP: 161/161; AC:32/15/30 - CMD 32] Saturday June 4th, 2022 8:36:20 PM
Desdichado feels a bit uneasy as the group enters the warehouse. Completely surrounded, and in unknown territory, this seems like a perfect way for the rakshasa to ambush the group.
Warehouse Karri - DM Dan K Sunday June 5th, 2022 8:40:52 AM
Gaffer pulls the the wagon through and sees a table and 8 chairs off to the right side and two more elf guard heading over Des looks about and spies an interior door about 35' to the right, past the table. Danko climbs off the wagon and starts looking about for hiding places and there are scores of them among the crates and gear. Right now, the guard are very much directly watching him The Veil spell remains in place.
The guard are not wearing the city watch uniform, which is not surprising as the city watch would not usually be deployed for a private business. The pair that opened the door to let you in start to close it.
The original pair, remain outside and don't seem to be paying attention to the interior of the building.
Two more elf get up from the table inside and start walking over towards the wagon. Their demenor seems more sour than any of the others. Perhaps it is just that they are not looking forward to unloading several thousand pounds of goods, or perhaps it is more.
Everyone except Hmerrin make TWO Will saves DC 22

It is just now occurring to Hmerrin that he's got no way to revert to not being a horse should something unpleasant happen to Gaffer.
He idly wonders how long this spell lasts.

Gaffer feels a strange... Something... Pass over him and pauses. He quickly looks to his allies to judge their own reactions, unsure what might happen next.
If any of their group start fighting, he'll dismiss the Animal Shapes spell on Hmerrin.

He looks back at Dez...that last Raka is still upright.

Ramirez looks at this bow. Huh, guess this one is a little bit tougher than expected.

Des manages to get past the Rakshasa's defences, but the blow does not seem to harm the creature, like Ramirez's arrow from seconds ago. Danko moves out and around from the back side of the wagon and sends what seems to be an impossible number of scorching rays, but even more impossible, is that all of them miss Nira Casts a Magic Circle from Evil anticipating more opponents soon Hmerrin also now closes on the Rakshasa with his Halbred, specifically built to kill them, but misses Ramirez shifts tactics himself and starts an inspiring tale, lending magical courage to his companions
The Rakshasa is hard pressed, but maintians his completely defensive nature. Spinning, twisting and parrying to keep inches ahead of the blades and magic aimed at it
Suddenly across the room, firey rays erupt as a small contingent of Rakshasa appears out of nowhere. A total of 8, lance in at Ramirez.

Hmerrin is unable to land a solid blow as well Ramirez stands back up and casts Displacement on himself and begins the performance again Danko turns and casts Wall of Force, creating a 50' long and 20' high wall effectively cutting off the Rakshasa

Desdichado is ready to move to the next door, but Danko wants to ensure whatever they are doing can take longer than 10 minutes. Mister Pureheart is also... suspicious. He casts detect magic on the room, but the only things that light up are The Tide themselves: not even a tingle on his Roguey-Sense.
Hmerrin is also suspicious of this room. He ensures Danko has the time to cast, and also retrieves a crowbar from his haversack, and jams it into the door so as to keep it open. (ooc: nice fix!) To ensure it is a good fit, it takes a minute to look it over and set the crowbar properly. (OOC: 10 rounds pass [1 minute])
Ramirez observes that another spell would open it if it does take too long.
Gaffer stays close to Nira as they move through the door, straining his ears for any sound that might hint of a threat.
…………..…………..
Spiked door and a set of detection spells make the room as reasonably safe as The Tide can think of to manage. There is really nothing else to do than to open the next door, and since Desdichado was all ready to make that move anyways...
The inner door opens with no problems, and reveals what appears to be a common living area. A sofa and a couple of chairs are upholstered in leather of a dubious nature, and accented with a Liontaur throw-rug and trophies of Minotaur heads lining the walls. There is a table-setting for two, and a burgundy liquid in a crystal decanter, unstoppered. There doesn't appear to be anything else in the room.
There are three other doors from this room, all looking the same: two on the opposite wall and one to the right.

Desdichado not only sees the Taur ‘trophies’, but realizes the ‘leather’ of the couch and chairs must be human and dwarf respectively. Walking into the room and seeing the Taur "trophies" within only confirms in Desdichado's mind how vile these rakshasa are.
Danko looks for traps, but finds none in the room.
Hmerrin walks in, and heads for the right hand door on the far wall.
Ramirez requests a look for invisible creatures. …………..…………..
Nira, Danko, and Desdichado note the smells of the room as well. The unstoppered decanter, perhaps surprisingly, holds a fruity elvish wine and not something vile. Of the two doors in the far wall, the left one has obvious meal preparation smells nearby, and the one on the right has an odor of chamomile and incense.

Desidchado is wary as he eyes the disgusting decorations in the room, and keys in on the incense room.
Gaffer’s hands no longer glow and votes for the kitchen to rescue any ‘live ingredients’.
Hmerrin makes a decision, and opens the door of the room smelling of chamomile and incense.
Danko gives his signature battlecry, ‘well, let the shenanigans begin’.
Ramirez considers the evidence that The Tide may have actually surprised them.
……….
The lingering odor of chamomile and incense perfume what is obviously a Rakshasa boudoir (i.e. bedroom). There is a (real) stuffed unicorn as lounge pillow, with assorted other pillows and rugs, but nothing else and no one else here. (Sense Motive DC24 Highlight to display spoiler: { There are not even any prized possessions or items of wealth in the room as The Tide have seen in past Rakshasa lairs. Either this is the lair of a most unusual Rakshasa, or there is a treasure vault somewhere else. Perhaps the third door? }
With nothing of interest in the boudoir, Gaffer can satisfy his curiosity by opening the kitchen door. Here is, in fact, a kitchen, and there is an open larder in the back. Yeah… don’t ask… it’s awful. The only good news is the druid has confirmed there is nothing still living in the room.
Both far-side doors explored, and no tingles of a Secret or Concealed door, the only obvious way for the heroes is the door without smells to the right.
………..
WE are still in Combat Rounds. Note use of 1 round of spell duration.
RobC - Nira Wynvyre -- AC 22/14/18 -- CMD 21 -- HP 114/114 -- DarkVision/ArcaneSight/SeeInvis Friday June 24th, 2022 4:31:15 AM "Awwwww" Nira groans on seeing the unicorn. That's just mean. "There's.." she pauses and looks back at the unicorn again. You can tell it really bothers her. "There are no items of wealth in here. That's a bit strange. Maybe they keep their treasure somewhere else nearby?"
She tries to work out if the unicorn will fit in her haversack. If not, she'll cast Shrink Item (via her Arcane Bond) to make it fit. This unicorn will be getting a proper burial later.

"They seem well be practiced at packing up a hideout." Gaffer murmers as he eyes the third door, letting someone else do the honors of opening it.

OOC- I will be out of town next week and could use a sub, even if just for placeholder posts
Nira, I think we can do something for all of these poor creatures. But first we must defeat the monsters who desecrated them.

Danko looks around... " What a revolting development this is.... "

WE are still in Combat Rounds. Note, no time has passed since last post since no actions were performed.
Dez has already opened the door, so the best he can do is file in behind the paladin, halberd at the ready.

Gaffer takes his own place beside Ramirez, waiting with baited breath for whatever's behind the door.

With the unicorn now safely stashed inside her haversack, Nira returns her focus to the task at hand. She stays out of line-of-sight for when the door gets opened.

Des opens the door and Hmerrin follows the paladin in, Halbred at the ready. Both feel a wave of energy wash over them, like they felt in the back room of The Nymph. Dez and Hmerrin Will Save DC 22 Dex 22 or half Hmerrin 47 or half
Appearing as they cast are 2 Rakshasa on either side of the room. Scorching Ray spells come at Hmerrin and Dez. All of them fall back after casting Des Touch AC 35/30/35/22 DMG 13/16/19/22 Hmerrin Touch AC 23/26/37/39 crit 39 Dmg 16/10/15/31
