Earning Your Wings

The Skycastle [DM Jeff]
Monday March 8th, 2010 3:52:33 AM
Vedik and Plyf, invisible and ready for action, fly under the Skycastle until they are able to reach the edge. Both of them are careful as they creep from hidden under to visible over, even with their spells to protect them. And both of them are overwhelmed at the amount of magic on this flying rock. At the moment, all they really get is the obvious stuff in front of them: all the stuff that is keep this thing in the air and in one piece. There is likely going to be more, but they'll have to explore to find it. Surprisingly enough, though, there is none of the usual problems the Knights have come to associate with detecting Teucri magic. In fact, the divining comes through clear as day.

---

Plyf and Vedik float up to the South Eastern corner and finds themselves looking at an impressive iron and stone building. Blackened marble with green veins and a grey granite slate make up most of what may be a Mausoleum. If this building was once a beautiful tomb, now it most certainly is not. Mud is caked onto the walls, seeming to suck the building into the ground. Thick, dead grass surrounds it. And all the beautiful ironwork is rusted. The doors are likely on the far side. The steeply slated roof runs in a jagged line, covered in green copper thick plates down the spine of this forgotten building...

Looking west of the Mausoleum, Plyf and Vedik aren't at all surprised to spot a large stone building. This is, after all, the Skycastle and it does need a castle. Briarwood and bramble vines grow up the sides of what was likely a beautiful marble and sandstone building. Flying buttress curves vaulting the ceiling and pulling the viewers eye ever upward. But the Knights can't ignore the deep red stains on the outer walls; a substance they suspect is blood. These suspicions are quickly confirmed by looking up to the pinnacle of the curving spire upon the roof: it is topped with a collection of bodies and parts, sewn into a great grotesque mass. It somehow resembles a huge humanoid skeleton staked over a defiled symbol of Gargul: the Ever Watchful Eye. Carrion birds of prey flap about in a black cloud, leaving no doubt that the bodies are replaced regularly...

Right in front of the Castle building is twisted host of zombies, ghouls, wights and animated parts of bodies like heads and arms tear and feed on each other. Plyf and Vedik watch, in horror, as they kill each other and themselves only to slowly be reanimated over the course of a minute or two.

In the North Western corner of the floating island is a large, rocky hill. What else might be there, the Knights can't tell from this angle...

Moving East from the hill, there is a large pool of water. Like everything else on this island, it could have been wonderful once. It is stagnant and dark; scum and weeds cover most of the surface. A thick, puce foam has gathered on the shore line adding to the disgust. And dead birds float decomposing by the shore where a light current pushes their now bloated and molted bodies. By this pool is a great, open air parthanon. Great stone columns rise out of the ground and dominate the landscape.

On the North Eastern corner are trees. Lots of them. Perhaps they were once filled with beautiful fruits, but now this orchard is hideous. Bark hangs limply from the dead plants. There is not a leaf in sight that doesn't look withered. But the amount of trees... Who knows what could be hiding in there.

This is the Skycastle. A collection of buildings loosely organized on what was once a beautiful Sylvan-like setting: well-manicured lawns have become weeds and dead grass, twisting about like blotches upon the land; gentle pools of water connected by babbling streams are now either dry or disguisting; pleasant footpaths of natural stone leading to buildings, benches, and gazebos have become blood-stained, shattered paths. Even the buildings of gray granite stone seem to have twisted themselves to unnatural angles; windows do not square in their frames; walls slope or slant in odd directions to the rooftops that are covered in thick acrid black, green and even deep blue smoke wafting from chimneys.

Everyone else waits...

Vedik takes in the sight, saddened by the amount of disrepair of this once beautiful place. He takes in the architecture, the stone work, and the religious symbols, then begins to puzzle.

He taps Plyf on the shoulder and points back down under the rock, indicating that he thinks they should report back.

Unseen to Vedik, she shrugs her shoulders and taps him back in acknowledgement. She seems it very odd indeed, there was no seen army waiting to march on MOMs' community, at least the undead seemed preoccupied with engorging themselves on each other to be preparing for battle.

Right Underneath Their Noses [DM Jeff]
Tuesday March 9th, 2010 3:25:11 AM
Vedik tries to piece together what this Skycastle could have been. While he has certainly heard of flying castles before, this is something different altogether. A project that would have taken many years and powerful magics. The only thing that is really like it would be the Float, but if this isn't Teucri...

He is certain that the ruled Temple was, at one point, meant to honor Gargul. Which means the Skycastle is much more recent than the Teucri base below. A strange coincidence that they would have rumors about such a similar thing. Or perhaps another mystery. Although whether the Knights have any chance at solving it...

Both Plyf and Vedik seem to believe that something is amiss here. After all, if this is the stronghold of the Dread, why is there only a shambling horde of suicidal dead protecting it. Off course, there are likely many other baddies and tricks to be had that the Knights cannot easily see from here. And the two Knights consider another point: why would the Skycastle need incredible defenses? It is an invisible fortress high up in the sky that houses the Lich Lord of the Dread and his minions. It isn't terribly likely that someone powerful enough to do something about it would stumble upon it. And if it has been kept a secret this well for this long...

---

It takes a little bit of searching to get everyone back together, but the Knights are reunited to make plans.

"Look guys. I don't know what you want to do, but maybe a powerful spell could effect the base of it, causing it all to collapse. It would stink if it fell on everyone here, but maybe send some earth elementals from the rocky part of the flying citadel?"

Echlhin AC 34 (Touch 28/34 vs. Incorp.) HP 190 of 191
Tuesday March 9th, 2010 5:03:54 PM
Echlhin listens to the groups suggestions in regards of what to do next.

Dwight hp 160/160, ac 33(touch 25)
Tuesday March 9th, 2010 9:16:02 PM
"Plyf, if only it were that sssimple. I think we need to end the Dread, or at leassst weaken their organization greatly. Did either of you sssee an opening in the cassstle or temple that we could fly into and avoid the outssside altogether. The main court will likely hold thossse we seek, though if we are lucky they dissstrussst each other as much asss they dissstrussst the ressst of the wold."

"Courssse, recalling sssome passst dissscussssssionsss, owning a flying cassstle would give the Grey Knightsss pressstige beyond my wildessst dreamsss." Dwight smiles wide though no one can see it.

"Vran, what can you tell usss of each of the Lichesss? Do they trussst each other, or do they work ssseparately mossst of the time on their own sssecret agendasss?"

Vedik AC 24 (13 touch) HP 186/191 Character Sheet Spells
Tuesday March 9th, 2010 9:40:13 PM
"Plus, I'd rather not wreck such a fantastic construction" the old dwarf says quietly.

"I'm concerned about the regenerating effect the undead seem to be under. Regenerating skeletons are not a huge concern. If the liches regenerate, that's a different story."

"I suggest we sneak up on the north west, and examine the rocky hill, then move under the island to the orchard."

Bas'Anut and Tendrix [DM Jeff]
Wednesday March 10th, 2010 3:17:49 AM
The Knights discuss their intentions for assault. When Vedik mentions the regenerating undead, Vran's voice takes on a tone of concern. "The Swarm is out? That is... alarming. I did not think the Dread had perfected that. There will be a great deal on this island that we cannot expect to have seen before.

"While I think making the entire structure collapse would be an effective method of destroying their base, I believe that a bunch of liches would likely teleport away before it was a problem. As for what I can tell you about them... I've only met two: Bas'Anut and Tendrix. Tendrix was, in life, a druid. Manipulated nature incredibly. In death, that didn't change. The orchard you described is likely his work. Bas'Anut was who I primarily dealt with, but I know very little about him. Arcane and divine magic, it seemed to me that there was very little he did not have control over. He also didn't particularly get along with any of the other Lich Lords. Although I'm not sure if any of them really do."

Dwight's question sparks a few more words from the old man. "Secret agendas is the most apt description. While they all work for the Dread, they keep their specific projects private. If the Dread doesn't command them to inform others, they won't..."

Plyf (AC:32 ; HP:134/134) 1 Magic Vestment, Greater Magic Weapon,
Wednesday March 10th, 2010 10:20:48 AM
"I'm not cleaning that place!" She bluts out thinking about the nastyness that is the floating undead community above.

Plyf waits more for action from the others.

Echlhin AC 34 (Touch 28/34 vs. Incorp.) HP 190 of 191
Wednesday March 10th, 2010 2:07:52 PM
Echlhin wonders if each of the locations may have one of the liches, or if all of the liches might be in one particular location. From Vran's description about them being secretive, he thinks that they might be apart from each other, planing their own individual machinations. Echlhin worries that if they are seperate, attacking one will alert the others. He then asks Vran more about the Swarm.

Tratain Current Spells AC 47 HP 207/211
Wednesday March 10th, 2010 5:32:46 PM
Tratain says "If we can catch them seperated things might go a little easier for us. Vedik has pointed out 5 points that stand out. We know there are 8 liches. So some of them must be in close proximity to each other. Vran, do you think there is any chance we could get some of the liches to fight with each other? I also worry that if we try and fight one all of the others will somehow be alerted and come at us together."

MonthorHit Points:(213 of 213) AC 39
Wednesday March 10th, 2010 8:01:33 PM
What about letting the other undeads loose? They may cause enough of a problem for the liches to give us an advantage?

Dwight hp 160/160, ac 33(touch 25)
Wednesday March 10th, 2010 9:55:02 PM
Dwight waits for Vran to expand a bit more on the swarm, and what it means.

"I think we are going to have to pick a sssection and deal with it. Perhapsss once one Lich hasss been taken care of, we can lay cluesss pinning it'sss dessstruction on another, perhapsss insssiting an internal Lich conflict that can only help usss. Their dissstrussst will likely prevent them from running to one another for help; essspecially if Vran can think of the name of any of the othersss."

Plyf (AC:32 ; HP:134/134) 1 Magic Vestment, Greater Magic Weapon,
Thursday March 11th, 2010 10:00:49 AM
Plyf looks over at Vran, "How long have the Dread been experimenting with this "swarm" and how is it animated? Clearly Those were not natural undead, if such a term can be coined. Do they have an area they were created in? That should be the first place we hit. If we can't take that swarm out, we need to make sure they don't make any more."

Pindar [DM Jeff]
Thursday March 11th, 2010 12:03:40 PM
"The Swarm is not an all-powerful foe that cannot be beaten. And it's likely that the Dread have some control over it. I was just surprised that it had been perfected, that's all. The particular details of it are completely unknown to me." Vran says to the Knight. "It also may be something that we can avoid for now and come back to after dealing with the Liches."

Tratain, Dwight, and Echlhin all think about finding a way to turn the liches against each other. "It might be possible... Each of them supposedly spends so much time alone that they don't know anything about each other. I know nothing about Pindar, but apparently none of the other liches has ever seen his true form... All I can say is that I hope they are separated and alone. Even if that runs the risk of alerting the others. Fighting all of them at the same time would be suicide."

Dwight hp 160/160, ac 33(touch 25)
Thursday March 11th, 2010 1:08:35 PM
Dwight pushes for the best description he can get for each Lich. He intends to say something about another Lich, while fighting one, but wants to try to prevent saying something that is known to be false. (i.e. saying to Tendrix; "now that we have found you, Tendrix will relish in your demise"

"Okay, I guessssss, the only thing left isss to decide which of the sssectionsss to attack firssst. Sssince we have ssso little information, I'm open to any, though the temple or cassstle would likely be my firssst pick."

Tratain says "Lets do what Vedik has suggested and approach the Northwest, then move on towards the Orchard. Once we get close I'll use the Deathward wand on us, the rest of our magic should still be active I believe."

Plyf (AC:32 ; HP:134/134) 1 Magic Vestment, Greater Magic Weapon,
Friday March 12th, 2010 10:13:20 AM
"The way IO saw them regenerating, even as they were eating themselves, I don't see it at all easy."

Plyf wonders how she can help the group? Without her Sneak Attack abilities, she will do minimal damage with her bow and her rapier is not at all powerful.

The way she found and removed traps just yesterday, leaves her wonder herself, if she deserves to be a Gray Knight, let alone a member of the few elite Dragons.

The Liches [DM post]
Saturday March 13th, 2010 8:38:48 AM
"I have never been face to face with Bas'Anut let alone any of the others." Vran shakes his head, "I have told you all I have heard, or at least recall hearing on them. I do not even knnow what the others call themselves. The Dread is not a communal close group. It is fractured and split and it is so on purpose all under the control of the Dread Lord. What I do know is that what sits before us is a once in a life time opportunity."

The Northwest Hill
Wednesday March 17th, 2010 6:49:02 PM
First a bit of house keeping. It takes just over 30 minutes to fly up to the island and the northwest area. 33 to be precise where magical effects are concerned.
A flying wand requires 7 charges per person
Invisibly, consumes 11 charges per person

The group flies up under the great cloud island and to the northwestern corner. Just before emerging from under the cloud, Vedick activates a wand of Good Hope (7 minutes) affecting the entire group and then casts Death Ward on himself.

Moving carefully the group begins to take in this side of the island, floating upwards along the side. The side of the hill is more in line with a cliff than a hill on the outward facing side. Granite and other hard rock can be seen and the entire section rises nearly 200' and is over 400' wide. Still invisble for about a minute more, the group finds themselves looking into a great cave some 50' wide and high about halfway up. The rock is slick with what appears to be oil shimmering in the reflective light from the clouds below. The wind rustles about you, a bare whisper as if even it is fearful to be near this ominous opeing in the black rock. No sound ventures forth from the hole and it extends well back beyond anyones vision.

The group is presently hovering 20' from the cave itself.

Tratain uses the Death Ward wand on those of the Group who need it and cast shield of Faith On himself at the spot where Vedik uses the good hope wand.

Tratain nudges the group forward to the cave mouth so that they can see further inside it. He will lead the group inside further hoping the group will scan for traps and threats as they go.

Housekeeping. I'm going to need you guys to keep track of your magic, including durations. If it is not listed in your post it won't exist

Greater Invisibility only lasts 7 rounds per use of Plyf's wand
Vedick and Plyf scouted invisibly. Plyf is invisible now 2 rounds remain
Detect Magic is no longer active [Vedick and Plyf wen up alone scouted and returned. The entire group then went up total round trip 1 hour]
As far as I can tell only Tratain and Dwight have a magic item that allows flight. Missed that so we are just going with the group where they are.
Death Ward from a wand duration 65 rounds remaining on everyone [7 charges used]

The Approach tunnel is about 50' in diameter and moves into the ground at a steady 10 degree downslope. Carrion and offal line the walls, drip from the ceiling and cover the floor. Bits of half eaten corpses and decay can be seen everywhere. Plyf moves slowly and steadily down the tunnel invisble. The rest of the party hangs back so as not to pass her and become possible trap detectors themselves.

Shortly into the tunnel, both Echilan and Dwight hear what sounds like a whispering snake hiss and the dull soft clatter of dried wood from somewher up ahead in the darkness beyond vision.

Plyf is 50' into the tunnel. The rest of the party is 30' in.
Plyf has about a 20' lead and can see 60' with her Darkvision.
The tunnel extends beyond her sight

Plyf continues moving down the tunnel, her eyes scanning for traps and trying to pick up any magical auras before her. The rank of decay assults the sences, magnified by the closed quarters fas she moves further and the complete lack of any moving air it is practically a plyable force.

The rest of the group remains alert behind her and again there is the same sound of ratlling dry wood and a sereis of short snake like hisses.

It has been another 60' and plyf's darkvision begins to make out that the tunnel about 60' before her begins to open into a larger cavern.

Monthor continues to follows Plyf, ahead of Tratain.

Plyf listens closely for some signs of direction on that which rustles. If she can determine a direction, one side or the other, she will take the opposite side. She knows the danger here is as great as she has ever faced. Everything she knows and has learned swims before her mind in a complex pattern of breathing and muscle movements. Carefully, she hides as she moves, moving much slower then normal she digs for some knowledge of what creature might be in here (Dungeoneering) and as always, she is walways making sure any traps in the area might be detected.

Dwight floats with only Tratain able to see where he is, just near the end of the group. Dwight maintains his position only by the sound of his fellow group members and the slightest ruffling they make as they float through the air. (listen for group members: 20)

Though others cannot see, his bow is clenched in his hand ready for something un-living to jump out at any moment.

The Party moves further down the passage and deeper into the pitch. Only those with sight of Darkvision can see anthying except the entrace behind them now nearly 120' away. Plyf spots it first, being ahead of the others. Rising from a pile of filth and decay is huge skeletal dragon. Bits of skin still hang from tattered wings, gore coats the great creatures fangs and the feeling of death washes over Plyf and soon the rest of the party as well.

The creature launches into the air with a clatter that sounds of dry brittle wood, its wings spread and even though there is no substance to them, they beat ferociously as the dragon takes flight at the tunnel. An unatural fear washes over the entire party. The fear of death itself and crushing of one's soul. Each of the Grey Knights feels keenly that if they fall to this abomination, thier soul will never see the realm of shadow.
All Knights not immune to fear please make a Will Save DC 30 or be Shaken for 18 rounds

The dragon soars over the party 10' above you. Its head snaps down as it passes over Echlhin and plucks him easily from the ground and carries him down and completely out of the tunnel

In seconds Echlhin is carried down the tunnel and is gone.

Highlight to display spoiler: {ooc: LOL, I forgot to cut and paste.}

Plyf can do nothing but fire one shot at it as it takes to the air. She thinks about dragon liches, if this is one of them. What types of weapons are most effective against this creature? If she has that type of weapon in stock, she uses it when she fires. The wave of fear quickly passes as she can clearly see it biting down on the Grim. Once, it gets overhead, she knows the group can't lose contact with one of their own, so in a feeble attempt, she jumps up in the air to grab onto the skeletal remains of the undead monster. Her strength and luck likely insufficient.

Sorry, I planned on jumping before the attack, hence the rolls.

Monthor laughs at the thought of being affraid of the dragon (will save 35).

Delayed action : Monthor waits to see what Dwight does before running after the others.
If Dwight does something sneaky { Like casting Ddoor}, he'll follow Dwight's directions.
Otherwise, Monthor activates his protection from evil Brahm's tatoo before taking up the rear of the party as they run after the dragon.

Dwight was not expecting a giant undead dragon, and is shaken for having been so mentally unprepared.

Still having the arrow ready, he attempts to take a shot at it's massive body.

Hit: 52-2(shaken) = 50 (natural 20, possible crit if that is even possible being undead: 44-2 = 42?)
Dmg: 9 + 9(holy) = 18 (14 due to shaken I believe, if it's -2 per die)

Wishing he had more powerful magic to aid Echlin immediately, Dwight follows the sound of the others racing out of the tunnel at top speed, behind all the others.

Tratain turns and runs to the edge of the tunnel after the dragon creature and Echlhin. Arriving at the very edge he see the drgaon flying off to the right.
Plyf turns thinking of firing her bow, but the dragon is already gone. [The Dragon's full round attack and move took it completely out of the area] Nothing of her knowledge of Dungoneering provides any assistance in what might help against such a creature.
Vedick, too, wheels about and catches up with Vedick at the edge of the tunnel
Echlhin becomes etheral and simply slips from the creatures powerful maw
Monthor waits on Dwight, in case he has a sneaky move up his sleeve, but in the end takes up the rear guard for the grou as they pursue.

Those at the Edge of the tunnel see the dragon continue to fly off. Moving nearly 180' off, the dragon banks right once again and disappears around the natrual curve of the floating island.

Lets just hope it doesn't run off and tell everything else on the Island we are here now and bring them all back at the same time."

Inspire Courage.
Inspire Courage (Su)
A bard with 3 or more ranks in a Perform skill can use song or poetics to inspire courage in his allies (including himself), bolstering them against fear and improving their combat abilities. To be affected, an ally must be able to hear the bard sing. The effect lasts for as long as the ally hears the bard sing and for 5 rounds thereafter. An affected ally receives a +1 morale bonus on saving throws against charm and fear effects and a +1 morale bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls. At 8th level, and every six bard levels thereafter, this bonus increases by 1 (+2 at 8th, +3 at 14th, and +4 at 20th). Inspire courage is a mind-affecting ability

The Cave Additional notes
Saturday March 27th, 2010 9:28:45 AM
The Dragon launches from the darkness and Vran doubles over in exchruciating pain. The former Dread member sputters a few times as he tries to drag himself out of the way and to the side of the tunnel. "L..l...loo...looks like....I wi..will be of s.s.ssmall use aginst them." It is not dragon fear, but something else that seems to have overcome Vran.

The dragon surprised the group and performed a Standard action.

Tuesday March 30th, 2010 10:23:04 PM
The Knights move fairly quickly back down the tunnel and into the cave where the dragon emerged and attacked. Echlhin becomes corporeal. the the Knights begin to look and search about the large cavern. It is nearly 100' to the ceiling from the floor at the center and about 70' in radius. Hepaed in teh center is a great pile of decaying matter. Residual slime from decomposed plantts, the fetid remains of creatures, excrement and more bones than could easily be counted. The pile itself is over 35' radius and stacked some 15' deep.

Plyf casts Detect magic and begins questing with the spell in the hopes of narrowing things down quicker. It takes her just over 2 minutes to fully scan the area and sort through the auras. In the end, hrer detection locates a single ring at the surface of the pile though still coated in the unholy waste. There could cetainly be more, but to get to it, the group will have to dig through the sludge. The ring has a moderate aura Spell craft DC 19 Highlight to display spoiler: { Evocation }

Dwight mentions the thought of liches having coffins or some such and Plyf suggests that staying here could be quite dangerous.

It has been 3 minutes since the dragon left.

OoC it was stated the party would not stay at the entrance long so I have moved the party relatively immediately into the cave proper. 3 minutes = 30 rounds on all spells and affects have elapsed.

Plyf could care less about the offal and dung that covers the ground in this cave. The fact she found a ring and it is magical makes her a very happy rogue. She flips it through the air toward Dwight and smiles, maintaining her concentration on the spell and she will continue to dig through the nastyness, knowing she now has friends that can cure whatever gawd awful disease she may contract from looting this den.

Plf continues to search and suggests perhaps the group selas themselves in. A wall of Iron or stone perhaps. Searching the entire pile will take several hours.
Tratain asks Vran about the liche's phylacteries, but Vran has no answers on that subject, "I can only say I doubt that all of them are kept in the same place, if the Dread do something better above all else they plan and seperate thier power."

Monthor activates his boots and the group talks a bit further on whether to make a stand here, assuming the Dread will come, or whether they should move onto a different location.

Thus far, it would seem, the dragon and the rest do not plan on returning.

Echlhin agrees with Tratain about moving on while their protections are still active and leaving the unknown ring, suggesting perhaps if it is desired to hide it someplace else in the cave for later retrieval.

The Cave
Monday April 5th, 2010 9:41:29 PM
The group ditches the ring where it can easily be found and makes their way to the cave entrance. Tratian uses 4 charges to heal Echlhin with his wand the Knights make thier way to the top of the cliffs and the hill above. A foul watered pool sits atop of the hill and pours to the west over a 50 cliff. Great black willow trees ring most of the pool, each nearly 8' around and stretching almost 70' high. Great branches hang ominously down to rest in the dark waters. The Knights farey those unable to fly to the top and from here have a good command of the rest of the island. To the south and a bit west, they can see the large palace with the bodies staked across the top and the carrion birds.

Directly south is a tanglewood of hard wood trees and conifers casting deep shadows to the grounds and hiding what may lie within thier borders of about 5 acres square.

Directly west just down the hill is a massive parthanon. Thick sicly green columns line the exterior of the rectangular stucture and the center is open to the skies above. However, non can see into it, even though the columns leave 8' gaps between them. A roiling black cloud of fog obscures all vision at the edge of the columns and where a ceiling would be as well.
Spellcraft DC 25 [spolier] Mage's Private Sanctum or similar effect[/spoiler]

Beyond the Parthanon lies what was once an orchard of large fruit trees of multiple varieties, now choked with Kudzu and ivy vines mixed in with walnut and almond trees. The lay of the land within the bramble is impossible to tell.

Far to the western and southern edge the great mausoleum can just be seen, perhaps a 1/4 mile distant.

The only sound that can be heard, comes from the dark waters of the pool the Grey Knights stand near as it pours over the edge of the rocks to the west through a wound in the earth mound that makes up the perimeter of the pool.

Moving on the Parthanon
Friday April 9th, 2010 6:22:27 PM
After taking in the surroundings from the vantage of the hilltop, the group decides that the great Parthanon with what is likely a Private Sanctum spell encasing it, is the best next step. The group moves around the large pool and Black Willow trees, heading for the steeper western face. The great trees creak slightly and the willow branches slowly sway towards the Knights, pushed by a current of air that none of the Grey knights can feel. Gnats and other insect life too small to detect individually seem to pour from the slick black and dying grasses. They register as clouds whafting from the ground to collect in the ears, eyes and wherever exposed skin can be found. Not dangerous, but most assuredly annoying. To the groups right something slides into the water from the shore, perhaps a frog or snake, breaking the natural tension of the dark waters.

Moving down the steep western face is difficult, but not overly so, one just needs to take his time in descending. The ground then flattens and slopes gently away from the hill for nearly 100 yards before coming to the first of a 10 step series that leads into the Parthanon. Ahead is a scattering of smaller trees of varying hardwoods. All are twistes about and choked with underbrush and vines. Sitting on a larger branch of one such tree about 70' from the party, is what appears to be a man in his mid forties. He clothes are mere rage, dirt covers him and most ominous is the length of rope he holds in his hands before him.

Apparently taking no notice of the group, the man rolls himself from his perch. The rope snaps tight and there is an audible crack. The air seems to will itself to be still to such an extent that the members of the Grey knights can hear the rythmic creaking of the swaying rope.

Dwight watches as the man jumps ending his own life. He is overwhelmed by whatever the man must have been thinking to end his life in such a way willingly.

Loading an arrow into his bow, he whispers, "We cannot leave a man in such a state; I can split the rope with an arrow I think," confidently.

Dwight waits a moment to hear if anyone has a protest.

Plyf watches as the man is a very curious bird, perched up in the tree like that, but the small muscles between her vertebre contract sending a shiver through her body wathing him take his life like that. If only she was closer, she could have cast a Feather fall spell on him, or something.

Then, a real dreaded thought occurs to her, "What if it is a dark ritual, where one must take their life to become immortal? I suggest we take him down and burn his body before something terrible happens."

Monday April 12th, 2010 8:35:58 PM
From the distance and te grime covering him it is not possible to tell if he was dead before, or rather undead.

Dwight's arrow covers the distance in the blink of an eye and severs the rope clean. The man's body falls with a soft thud to the ground.

Plyf brings up a dark thought that perhaps they were just witness to some dark ceremony where a mortal chooses the path of the undead. Perhpas the group should destroy the body before it rises as some unholy apparition.

Caution is called for by many, and sharp eyes gaze about. The rope is firmly tied to the tree, probably done so after the man climbed up. The tree has large sweeping branches making such a climb childs play and in a different setting perhaps the tree would conjure precisely those images. Here and now however the dark limbs seem to reach and snake outward daring any creature too wander to close.

Nothing else moves, no creatures stir, the body lies where it fell under the spreading arms of the dark oak.

Theory of a Dead Man
Wednesday April 14th, 2010 9:28:16 PM
No ritual seems to fit, though the groups collective knowledge is a bit lacking. Nothing moves, nothing stirs and very soon the group is upon the body under the tree. An unseen wind stirs from above and the lighter branches high overhead chatter against each other like brittle wooden teeth. The rope seems plain enough, a thick hemp and likely homecrafted not very long ago. The man is indeed dead, a broken neck the cause and it is also very apparent that until about 2 minutes ago he was very much alive.

Theory of a Dead Man
Friday April 16th, 2010 8:31:38 PM
Most are ready to dismiss the man and move on, but Vedick and Echilhin are not so sure. Vedick casts Detect magic and after a few rounds of concentrating is sure the man has no items and that the rope is not magical in anyway either. As unsettling as it is, it may very well be a coincidental occurence. Monthor is becoming unnerved about being in the open for so long and suggests the group to be moving and soon.

The sparse and dying black trees litter the 100' of landscape between the Grey Knights and the western steps into the swirling fog about the parthanon. Again as the group or some of the group focus back in on moving towards the great marbled pillars an unseen or felt wind seems to blow through the thin brittle branches high overhead. The high cry of a carrion bird splits the air suddenly from the south as a small flock of ravens explde from a briar bush, the reason for thier flight is unseen, unheard and unknown to the Grey Knights.

DM clarification I think is needed. The rope was tied around the mnas neck and to the tree. After the man hung himself Dwight shot an arrow severing the rope and the man fell to the ground. Part of the rope is still tied to the branch above and another part is still tied about his neck

Tratain suggests the group looks into the startled birds, Echlhin is already moving that way as the others keep an eye out. The grim makes the are in short order and spies the most likely cause of the disturbance. A lean black wolf, fur oily and sickly in patches across its body is moving away from the aree and slinks under another thick bush some 50' from where the birds bolted. Echilhin's sharp eye can discern that the wolf is an undead creature. The grim also spots that within the briar bush where the birds were is a tangled and twisted body. Dead for some time and well picked over by the ravens that were recently dwelling in the bush itself. From here, Echilhin can see down the gentle rolling hill to the south to the front of the great mansion and the mass of undead that still shift before the door in a mad tearing orgy. limbs rip and tear from various creatures in the swarm of undead as they feast and fight with each other. The parthanon lies about 70' away from Echilhin's position.

Tratain then leads the group into the Parthenon. He goes through first and then moves off to one side to make room for the group and also depending on what he see's.

The Parthanon
Sunday April 25th, 2010 11:37:08 PM
The group moves up the steps carefully and steadily. Soon enough you penetrate and swirling fog and emerge into the Parthanon.
The once magnifiscent marbled and open aired parthanon now reeks of death and decay. The formerly beautiful tiled floor is slick with slime and mold making Charging and Running very difficult
A great long table dominates the center of the enormous building. Hanging overhead are 4 beaten bronze braziers that ablaze in a sickly yellow magical fire. Each is nearly 12 feet across and suspended from a thick set of iron chains that span the width of the structure providing anchor points at each side.
Strewn across the table are several horrific experiments involving noble race creatures as well as magical beasts and aberrations. Books of notes, scrolled mental mechinations of his dark and evil mind are nearby as well.
The Grey Knights have entered at about half way between the far north and south points,
The great table is some 40 feet away and standing just before it on the same side as the Knights are 6 large skeletons. A writhing mass can be seen within thier ribcages and deep violet glow comes from the eyesockets of thier great bull heads. Behind thenm and on the far side of the table is a lesser figure in stature. A crown can be seen upon a boney humanoid head and a robe warps about him, but most else is hidden by his cadre of guard and the stone table itself. He seems rather preoccupied with a dissection laid out before him.

Without looking up a powerful and confident voice emmenates from his direction, "I see Vran has succeeded in his mision. I knew he would make an excellent choice. It is time for the Grey Knights to engage in your final mission. You are to destroy the Dread."
Instantly Vran falls to the floor, again in terrible pain

Skeletons, what a drag...

She nocks an arrow and waits.

Tuesday April 27th, 2010 10:02:03 PM
The creature behind the table and the skeletal minotaurs remains still and apparently still looking over the dissection before him. A deep commnading voice again rings out in the Parthanon, "I am Bas'Anut and Vran has suffered enough. As he is one of my favorites, I shall ease his discomfort." As soon as the voice dies away in the echoless wind, Vran's convulsions cease. Bas'Anut then continues "Yes Vedik, It is what I want and have for some time. The reasons are my own, but I know that answer will not suffice you. So I will tell you this, the Dread has become like a cancer of the body and the body has been diminished, its focus disturbed and twisted to the ruin of all. You have proven capable of supplying the cure I seek. So I sent Vran to find you."

The hulking skeletons simply stand thier ground the twist of worms and ooze convulsing about thier empty rib cages.

Dwight looks to each of his fellow group members, wondering how much merit they put to this Liches words. He then looks to Vran, hoping to gleam some truth of his lies and hidden motive. His ears are homed to sounds behind him, hoping this is not a delay tactic to surround the group.

The Parthanon; Bas'Anut
Thursday April 29th, 2010 9:21:33 PM
Plyf can see the creature a bit more clearly as she slides to the groups right a bit. Split from chin to groin and flayed open like a butterflied steak is what used to be an illithid. She can see several thin sticks secured to locations in the cavity with bits of writing, probably labeling the various organs.

Bas'Anut rings no bells, brings no memories of any course of study to Vedick's mind. The name will likely remain as much of a mystery now that he knows than before he did.

Monthor and Dwight both stand on guard ready to let loose with metal death. It is likely theier counterparts in the 6 minotaur skeletons are as well.

Vran gets to his feet uneasily, sputtering a denial that he served or still serves the lich Bas Anut. Dwight cannot detect any disseption on the former Dread's part, but that does not mean there is none.

Bas'Anut seems perfectly willing to continue the conversation and begins with Tratains questions. "Is it really so hard to believe? Yes I wish for you to destroy the Dread. Yes I once served loyaley, but feel our way is lost and yes I would assume control of the Dread. I have no designs on you mortals or your realms and either should the Dread." He then address Vran "Surely Vran you did not think you broke the Dread's hold over you without assistance. It was not your will or cleverness that allowed you to move independantly among the Dread for so long and to find the Grey Knights without assistance? I gave that to you and you served admirably."

House keeping note. It has been 40 rounds or 4 minutes since the group left the cave.

"You're all scum." Plyf states matter of factly. Likely a compliment to these types.

"You presume to suggest you are a lesser evil to your demi god lord? You use people like fodder and cattle, extermintaed for your own whim. You have no interest in us as far as our interests are concerned, but you would level Plateau City and render Gargul your submissive if it serves your own goals and that just can not happen."

Plyf laughs a moment, "Are you willing to sign a contract with us, notorized by Pantheon himself for such an alliance and to insure what you say is possible?"

She does not really believe he will do so, but if buys the group some time to think about the situation, so be it.

Echlhin disagrees with Plyf, feeling that Vran is seeking to redeem himself and was an unknowing pawn in this matter. He does not voice the concern, but merely turns to Bas'Anut and asks "If the Dread has lost the way why have you or others not acted directly against him? What prevents you from confronting him directly? Why do you need us?"

"Presumption? Yes, it would be. As it is presumption on your part to deem yourselves and this conversation of such importance that Pantheon hiself would notorize a contract. He and the other gods care as much about such a thing as I you and I care for each other Plyf." the creatures head suddenly snaps up, forgetting his study of the mind flayer body before him and his voice raises in power and reverberates through the halls, echoeing back as if the roiling mist the party had pased through was solid, "Need! I, Need? Make no mistake Echilhin, I do not NEED you. I have thus far found you useful, but do not..."

With the sound of bone grinding on stone, Bas'Anut stops talking for a momment before resumming in the same deep baritone sound as when the converstaion began. "I would set the Dread to thier original purpose once more. The study of magic. To your trust I cannot help you. You will have to battle any crisis of faith on your own."

Plyf and Dwight could both see from thier respective vantage points that bas'Anut had dug his bony hands into the table, possibly in the same way to calm himself as a person might take a deep breath.

"Assuming we agree to this, where do the rest of the dread lords stand, Bas'Anut?" He eyes the angry lich calmly. "Surely things are not so orderly as ta assume you will simply be allowed to take command. We understand the dread lords have their own politics and alliances."

He pauses before continuing.

"And then there is the Dread itself. What can ya tell us of it?"

Bas'Anut for the first time stops what he is doing and looks up at the group directly. Vran did his job exceptionally well. These mortals are a surprise to be able to see beyond hate. They are also dangerous and deciteful things bound by the inherent limits of flesh and linear comprehension

"There is nothing to discuss further. If you wish my assistance then go and destroy the other lords and return with thier soul gems. Or bargain with them, it makes no difference to me. I will open the gate and then you can destroy the Dread and put an end to his threat to you and those you profess to still love. Otherwise go home, your use would be at an end and I will release Vran. Your questions are irrelavant to the task and only serve your own couriosity or treachery. Either one is of no benefit to myself or my research."

Tratain Current Spells AC 44 HP 207/211
Tuesday May 4th, 2010 9:39:30 PM
Tratain thinks for a moment and says "What can you tell us about the Other Lords of the Dread, what are their weaknesses and where are they located here on the island. Once we destroy the other Lords of the Dread what do you plan on doing? We would like Vran released now as well and some form of guarantee you plan no harm to the Wold like the current organization does. Once the other Dread Lords are gone where will you go and do?"

Again Dwight shivers wondering if making any type of deal with a dread lich is any better than making a deal with a demon; even if short-lived. Whatever deal we make, we become bound to uphold our end, but I doubt they, he, it will.

What would be gained or lost, should we attack him instead? Thus far, he has given us nothing, though he clearly needs us else he would have eliminated the others himself already.

The Dread Lich answers Tratain, in a way. "I have stated the conditions of Vran's release." Bas'Anut seems to conisder for a moment or two and adds, "No further words or guarantee from me will sway you beyond what you have already heard and so I feel no desire to repeat them merely in attempt to appease you as I have no need to do so."

Prod away mortals, it will avail you nothing. I am no lap dog that need please or come with hat in hand to you. I need not give additional information in attempt to convince you to move in my direction. You will go. I will have my victory. I do give you accolades for the attempt, quite clever in the phrasing. Innocent enough they seem, but they bind he who answers as a submissive dog, the servant to the master and I am no one's lesser. Soon the Dread will know of his folly.

Tratain leads the others out of the Parthenon back towards the Forest to try and find that Druid Lich they were told about.

Once outside of Hearing Distance of the Parthenon and after checking to make sure they aren't being Watched Tratain says to his friends "We'll save him for last. After we destroy the Dread, we'll take care of him unless we find a way to get to the Dread ourselves from fighting the others. He gives no assurances of what he will do and his whole reasoning seems to come down to "because I said so." He offers no concessions so Im not willing to let a lich run around free if I can help it."

ooc: Hey Grey Knights, it is the new DM team of SteveK and BZ! :-) You may remember me from such things as DanK's brother, various Tap games, and a short stint playing Lumi-Juova, the Ice Vien liontaur.

I like playing the DM as the facilitator of the Players having heroic and challenging adventures. It is my job to give the group physical, mental, and ethical challenges to provide an opportunity for teamwork, victory, and stretching the limits of the characters. Insta-death isn't fun, and neither is "kick-the-kobold".Being able to succeed overcoming great odds and having a chance at failure is what I think is fun in my book.

Since we are all (you and I) here to have fun, I look for out of character posts and emails to be in the spirit of friendly reminders or honest discussion. I know I make mistakes, and being human, each of you do too. As a high level heroic group, I will assume they are all experienced adventurers and will interpret postings in the best light possible. Of course, the less interpretation the DM has to do, the less explanations have to happen after the fact as well! :-)

...........................

Current module

NOTE1. Designed by DanK and approved by Jerry, this IS a module designed to challenge to the limit. That "should" be fun. So, don't take things too seriously if something goes bad. Stay in character, and support each other. There needs to be a sort of "agreement" during modules like this that the group WILL work together. That's what being a dragon group is all about. Teamwork, bravery, honor. We must continue to act like the heroes we are--which is why you were asked to join the Dragon Consorium Group. Don't make it artificial. Make it real. And have loads of fun doing it.

NOTE2. The party has a 24 hour Time Stop to use when they want to.

.......................

Tratain leads the others out of the Parthenon back towards the Forest to try and find that Druid Lich they were told about. Vran stays behind under Bas'Anut's sway.

He gets outside of what he thinks is hearing distance of the Parthenon and checks to make sure they aren't being Watched. (ooc: no rolls, so assuming take 10) The cleric can't see anything other than the dead trees smelling of decay.

Echlhin agrees.

Dwight points out the obvious drawback of the Lich's request, and looks around. He also can't see anything, only the trees moving and creaking as if a wind is blowing.

Vedik and Plyf look for direction to the next Lich Lord to slay. Tratain indicates he wants to go after the Druid Lich in the Forest.

With a destination in mind, it looks like the Gray Knights need to decide how to go there and winkle out a Lich!

Testing the tension on his bow, he readies an arrow for anything that moves. Dwight doesn't plan on waiting to see if the next 'thing' wants to make a deal.

Renewed with Good Hope, the Gray Knights penetrate the dead forest on the flying island of the Dread. Trees drip with decaying moss which move in a wind not felt by the group. Vedik soon spots a small circle of trees that look significant, and upon getting closer, it is obvious that there magical symbols carved on stone and tree in this area. To the magical casters of the Gray Knights it looks like a ....

With a *BAMF* of exploding air, a huge lizard humanoid covered in horny and thorny plates appears inside the circle. It raises a voice of thunder and flame, calling to the wood. "Tendrix, I will have words with thee!"

It then notices the Grey Knights. "Intruders! And worthy sacrifices to my appetite!"

Watching the Horned Devil materialize, Echlhin catches the name Tendrix. He informs the group as to what the creature is while moving to safer position (minimize being caught in a lightning bolt or fireball, back and away if possible). Given that the devil was expecting someone else , Echlhin looks around to see if this Tendrix or anything else is hiding in the area.

Plyf tries to get the thing into a speaking mode. There isn't enough time to diplomatically convince the appearing monster, and it laughs at the half-elfs attempt at striking an intimidating speech and the equally useless bluff. (Sense Motive- 38) "You are but intruders", it begins to state with finality.

Monthor activates his Brahmah's Tatoo and casts protection from evil while backing up 10'.

Vedik steps to Monthor and casts Enlarge person on the Dwarf, egging the warrior on.

Tratain doesn't give any time for talking, and instead defensively casts Harm. The spell overcomes both the devil's spell resistance and Will, and does severe damage to the fiend! Moving forward, Tratain deliberately invites an attack from the Horned Devil's tail which is negligently brushed off by the cleric's incredible defenses.

Dwight pulls full tension on his bow and releases it at the devil, piercing its armor and finishing what Tratain started. Quick kill, no problems. He then floats just a little higher on his broom to get a better vantage point.

Echlhin informs the group that it... was... a Horned Devil. There is no need to move to a safer position as it is dead, so looks around to see if this Tendrix or anything else is hiding in the area.
...........................

The fight lasted less than 10 seconds, and the Grey Knights look around. There doesn't seem to be any movement among the dead trees, nor is there any other activity around the magical symbols that surround the courtyard where the Horned Devil appeared.

Looking around, Echlhin spots a dozen small shapes the size of a fist that encircles the group 40 feet out. DC 26 Spellcraft Highlight to display spoiler: { Prying Eyes }

For everyone else, there is the portal with the strange magical symbols, or to continue further into the grove of dead trees.

Vran told the Grey Knights what he has known about two Liches: Bas'Anut and Tendrix. "Tendrix was, in life, a druid. Manipulated nature incredibly. In death, that didn't change. The orchard you described is likely his work. Bas'Anut was who I primarily dealt with, but I know very little about him. Arcane and divine magic, it seemed to me that there was very little he did not have control over. He also didn't particularly get along with any of the other Lich Lords. Although I'm not sure if any of them really do."

Plyf spots the Prying Eyes.

Echlhin strikes and destroys one Prying Eye, and sees another Eye immediately fly away.

The others are still there, however, and Dwight is next on the plate. 4 arrows dispel four Eyes, and each time one eye is destroyed, another flies away back towards the Parthenon.

Monthor looks to loose an axe at a Prying Eye, but can't find a target. (no Spot check).

Plyf steps into the underbrush and begins a sneak, keeping very hidden and looking to see what is ahead. Highlight to display spoiler: { after going through 40 feet of underbruch and poking her head through a hedge of trees and bushes, she can see a decaying skeleton casting spells in a circular clearing but 50 feet away.}

Tratain asks Vedik to check out the symbols, and for everyone to look for the lich. Since the devil was shouting, it should be close by...

The dangers of a powerful druid in it's own setting sets Plyfs bones to shiver. She has but seconds to act before who knows what is summoned by this thing. She shouts to her friends, "Over here!!! he is over here!!" Then she moves toward him about thirty feet. As she moves, she pulls out a scroll she had hoped she would never need or use, but if there were ever a time, it is now. let her friends grouss about it later if they like but it is best no one but her is around if this spell is cast.

Her nervous nature causes her to be clumsy, when she would other wise be graceful. Her life flashes before her eyes.

Plyf shivers, but knows what she has to do. Shouting to her friends, she moves towards the lich while pulling out an inoffensive looking scroll. Yet she can't read the words from nervousness and her life flashes before her eyes. (ooc: UMD fail, scroll spell still there. Need TWO UMD checks to use this scroll. Check #1 = Emulate 19 Intelligence = UMD 34 to succeed. Check#2 = Use 9th level spell scroll = UMD 37 to succeed) Plyf sees at second glance that there are more than just the skeletal human here. It is accompanied by an equally skeletal wolf!(ooc: How long has Plyf had the Greater Invisibility? Duration 1 round/lvl)

Tratain hears Plyf's cry and hustles towards the rogue, his full plate, even if made of mithril, slowing his run.

Dwight scans the area for more floating eyes, and shoots one more. He doesn't get the chance to hit the second, as it flies away and behind some trees before the archer can get a bead. He then looks in direction of Plyf and sees Tratain has run off, and follows on his broom. From his position 20 feet over the ground, Dwight sees a thick 10 foot high hedge that surrounds a large open circular area. The center of the open area has a pool of water where a skeletal in tattered brown robes stands under the shade of two colossal trees.
(ooc: How long has Dwight had the Greater Invisibility? duration 1 rd/lvl)

Echlin, Vedik, and Monthor all follow Tratain. (DM move on map.)

......................

A rictus grin from the moving skeleton focus' on Plyf as the lich completes his diabolical spell, summoning an Elder Arrowhawk behind the Grey Knights! The summoned monster screams and fires a bolt of lightning at Echlin. (AC Touch 24 Damage 19 Electric) Echlhin takes 19 electricity damage)

The lich must have known exactly where the heroes were in his orchard of decaying fruit, for a trap is sprung! Even though Plyf walked the same area but a couple seconds ago, all about the Grey Knights, vegetation rises up and attacks! Two Shambling Mounds attack Echlin, missing with four ropy tendrils, and Monthor is attacked by another with the same result. Tratain, however, is attacked by three of the monsters, and one lands a lucky strike, almost grappling the cleric! (AC Nat 20, no crit, Tratain takes 11 damage

"Twig! Tinderbranch!" The echoing voice comes from within the skeleton, "Kill me this intruder!" And the lich points to Plyf. At once, the two colossal trees move forward, one going around the pool of algae-covered and stinking water, the other moving forward enough to have a large branch slap down at the hero, if only it could target her!

Another command comes from the lich. "Lupo, let us kill us another elf. It's blood will go well to water our grove!" And the skeletal wolf lopes forward. As it moves towards Plyf, the lich casts a spell making the Wolf grow bigger and bigger! To make matters worse, it looks like the Wolf and the Lich have little trouble in knowing exactly where the invisible Plyf is! The Skeletal Wolf lashes out with sharp teeth twice, catching Plyf once on the side, tearing flesh and cloth and putting her on the ground! (AC 33 hit, 29, miss Trip 40 success! Damage 21 + disease) [b]Plyf takes 21 damage, is prone, and must save Fort DC 25 or contract Malaria (-2ability checks/skills/saves attack and Damage)

"Whether you are sent by one of my loving brothers or oh so noble heroes of the realm matters little", the lich drips sarcasm at Plyf, "for you will soon be dead at the hands of Tendrix!"

Dwight hopes the Lich has his hands full as Dwight turns his attention to the giant bird that appeared near him.

Pulling his bow back, he unleashes his full arsenal.

Vedik gathers the group, then defensively casts Greater Teleport. Yet the hero's sight is blocked by the thick hedge and he has never been given a description by Dwight or Plyf (the only ones who has seen the space). Vedik and the others reappear in the same place still surrounded by Shambling Mounds!
Ooc: Greater Teleport: "you need not have seen the destination, but in that case you must have at least a reliable description of the place to which you are teleporting. If you attempt to teleport with insufficient information (or with misleading information), you disappear and simply reappear in your original location."
OOC: Also, I play teleport moves the caster. Anyone he/she touches to the limit of the spell is also moved, but in the same spacial relation of the caster. (ie everyone holds hands and the caster casts teleport to a certain location. The caster arrives at that location, and everyone else is the same distance from the caster as when they were holding hands.)

Tratain is slightly non-plussed that Vedik's spell didn't work as advertised, but doesn't let the opportunity to make mayhem go by. His Warhammer smashes a Shambling Mound four times (DM roll on the AC 24 for 11 damage) instead of a skeleton, slaying one.

Dwight turns his attention to the giant bird that appeared near him, bending his bow and giving the Arrowhawk the opportunity to strike. The beak snaps on empty air and Dwight unleashes his full arsenal, slaying the Arrowhawk!
(OOC: It's been 4 minutes since the caves. Anything with a casting time of 40 rounds or less is expired. No Greater Invisibility for you right now.)

Monthor realises that Vedik's spell doesn't work, and the dwarf eviscerates two Shambling Mounds with Large two-handed swings. (ooc: Shamblers aren't evil, no holy damage. Takes 3 swings to kill first one, and two for the second.)

Echlhin AC 34 (Touch 28/34 vs. Incorp.) HP 191 of 191 (DM Posting due to Player out one week)
Echlhin steps back 5 feet, takes out his flask of Fire Seeds from his HHH and tosses it at the two Shamblers near him. One Shambler takes a swipe at the spellcaster, but misses. And then with a command word, all eight berries explode at once! Both Shamblers are still alive due to their wet nature, but really steaming.

Plyf sets up in total defensive stance to avoid attacks as best she can. She is able to overcome the disease threatening her body. (DM roll Fort save -- 27 = success)

......................

Plyf sees that Tendrix is focusing on her own little body. The Wolf and Lich concentrate on the isolated hero, as the other animals move to block the others. Spot DC 18 Highlight to display spoiler: { There are ripples on the surface of the algae-covered pool, as if there is something moving under water.}

The Wolf slashes with hungry teeth twice, striking once, and keeping her prone. Plyf takes 11 damage+ save Fort DC 25 or contract Malaria (-2ability checks/skills/saves attack and Damage)

Tendrix moves beside Lupo and, casting a short spell, touches Plyf gently on the arm. "Come, my little elf, and revel in the opportunity of decay", the druid lich croons almost lovingly. Immediately, a strong poison courses through her body and threatening to snuff out her life! (Poison touch attack AC 34 nat 20! Plyf loses 9 CON unless save Fort DC 28

The Shambling Mounds continue their assault, one on Echlhin, Monthor, and Tratain and two amazingly enough get through Monthor's and Tratain's defenses. (ACs 29, 18, 26, 33 nat 20! 22 no crit, 24, 33 nat 20! 26 no crit) Monthor takes 19 damage, Tratain takes 12 damage

The two colossal trees move forward, bracketing Plyf. Since they can't see the half-elf, they continue on to attack the other Gray Knights. One is in position to strike at Monthor, striking with a viney branch and wrapping the large dwarf... large dwarf? (shrugs)... and wrapping the large dwarf in a suffocating embrace! (AC 49, Dam 29, Grapple 63 Monthor takes 29 damage and is Grappled

Dwight reloads his bow calling to his comrades, "Hurry, Plyf is surrounded by trees, a wolf and the Lich and doesn't look so good. He is about 40' in this direction, " as he reloads his bow hoping to draw some attention away from Plyf. Flaming, ice cold arrows are shot into the circle directly at the Lich.

Freedom of Movement This spell enables you or a creature you touch to move and attack normally for the duration of the spell, even under the influence of magic that usually impedes movement, such as paralysis, solid fog, slow, and web. The subject automatically succeeds on any grapple check made to resist a grapple attempt, as well as on grapple checks or Escape Artist checks made to escape a grapple or a pin.

Haste -When making a full attack action, a hasted creature may make one extra attack with any weapon he is holding. The attack is made using the creature's full base attack bonus, plus any modifiers appropriate to the situation. (This effect is not cumulative with similar effects, such as that provided by a weapon of speed, nor does it actually grant an extra action, so you can't use it to cast a second spell or otherwise take an extra action in the round.)
A hasted creature gains a +1 bonus on attack rolls and a +1 dodge bonus to AC and Reflex saves

Plyf knows moments are left before it is to late. She wandered into a situation with little chance of success, if failure happened first. So she grits her teeth and smiles back at the lich, "I would say it has been a pleasure, but I hate to lie."

With a word, Plyf looks way up into the sky, around two thousand feet and teleports straight into the air above.

Teleport accuracy.

DM: I doubt the Greater Invisibility would have lasted as long as the walk to this area and I didn't redo it, so no problem. Goal of teleporting up that high is to ba able to guage a decent, descent using a feather fall spell next round and attempting again the scroll.

Dwight tells the others of Plyf's plight, and attacks the Lich with arrows. All four strike the skeletal monster, but the piercing weapons seem to provide little actual damage, all the hurt coming from the magical effects of the arrows.

Vedik regroups and casts Haste on his allies to move them faster.

Tratain casts a Quickened Freedom of Movement on Monthor, then swings at the Shambler in front of him, wounding it severely.

Monthor breaks from from the tree's grasp with the help of Tratain's spell, and slays the Shamblers near Echlhin with only two blows!

Plyf overcomes the poison in her body, but succumbs to the wolf's malaria. Knowing her dire plight, speaks but a word and teleports straight into the air, a thousand fee above. (ooc: Featherfall is a Free Action spell, you can cast out of turn.)

The large skeletal Wolf stays growling beside the Lich in a defensive posture.

Tendrix glares at the flying Dwight and casts a small spell which immediately conceals the lich and wolf in an Obscuring Mist that covers the lich and back to the pool.

Dwight is glad that Plyf seems to have disappeared and hopes that she is okay, where ever she went. At the same time, he is a bit surprised that he actually hurt the Lich, if only just slightly.

Finding himself an open target now, without being able to do more harm, Dwight switches tactics.

Activating his ring (Blink), Dwight then quickly moves to just over the hedges. (U30)

Dwight activates his blink ring, then quickly moves to just over the hedge. He tries to guage what spells are on the lich and wolf, but comes away with only confusion. Dwight can tell the trees are 25 feet tall. One tries to paste Dwight with a branch, but the Ring of Blinking saves him. (AC 38, miss 37%)

Tratain slays the last Shambler with 2 swings and then slides forward to cover Monthor.

Vedik takes to the air, flying backwards and upwards.

Echlhin decides he doesn't want the lich to have all the friends. He takes a step back under Vedik, and begins to summon.

Plyf falls 300 feet. (ooc: I can't see any rules on falling other than under Aerial Combat. There, it states a flying creature that stalls will fall 300 feet per round. Therefore, I rule that you fall 300 feet per round until arrested by some means.)
(ooc: Scrolls require 20+caster level, Spells require ability score DC too. All in PHB)

Addendum: As Plyf falls, she takes her bow intending to pincusion the skeletal wolf who was giving her such problems. The wolf, however, is lost within the magical mist, so the half-elf targets a tree instead.

Monthor slides forward to push through the hedge. He sees one of the colossal trees and buries his axe five times into the wood. Though devestated, the tree still stands!

......................

The large skeletal Wolf is lost within the Obscuring Mist.

Tendrix is lost within the Obscuring Mist. That he is doing something is evident when a Tyrannasaurus Rex appears!

The Tyrannasaurus Rex roars and bites at Monthor, missing. And then it speeds up! Spellcraft Dc 18 Highlight to display spoiler: {Haste}

Twigs seems to speed up and target the flying Dwight. Two branches lash out, and both pass through the Blinking hero! (AC 39, 46, 28% miss, 6% miss!)

Tinderbranch also speeds up and goes after Monthor with a single-minded fury. Two branches bludgeon the dwarf, though only one strikes home. (AC 48, 34 miss Monthor takes 24 damage

Dwight smirks as he blinks back into existence grateful his spell save him as his calculation for height did not.

Not being able to see the key enemies, Dwight hopes to rid the area of some that he can see.

Pulling his string back, he attacks Tinderbranch since Monthor has already damage it. (If it falls, he'll switch to the T-Rex.)

(OOC: should be auto hits, but I'll roll anyways since I don't know what perks it has.)

Total for all: 135 (plus the extra critical damage)

He then floats up another 10' hoping to be out of reach of the threatening branches.

The trees and Tyrannosaur are not evil, and the holy magic of the arrows do not affect them, but the other affects do...

ooc: per PHB - Extra damage dice over and above a weapon's normal damage are never multiplied.

ooc: per Wold - crits are rolled separately, not multiplied.

ergo: Dwight's crits only x3 the base d6 for extra damage.

ooc: while blinking, Dwight has 20% chance of missing an attack. In this case, the crit is moot since that was the arrow that Blinked out.

..............

The first arrow bursts the tree, the proverbial straw that breaks the camel's back. Tinderbranch is down!

The following arrows all plunge into the Tyrannosaur, (save for one that blinks out just before Dwight shoots) doing nasty things to its disposition! (66 damage; it is still up!)

The act of firing arrows so close to Twigs, however, gives the other tree an opportunity. A heavy branch swings true, and AGAIN!, Dwight is untouched because of his blinking! (AC 51, 21% missed... the die roller must really, really like Dwight!)

Dwight is using the following bow:

Holy and Ghost Touch Masterwork Composite Shortbow + 1 (Dwight made)

Based on the Ghost Touch, I thought I could disregard the blinking when I attacked?
(DMG p 181-ish)

Perhaps I should have posted this as Monthor does with his weapon.

I rolled 2 more times, should you decide it does hit (and reappear perhaps inside the T-Rex)..hehe.

If I am wrong, please let me know so I can roll my % per attack.

DM SteveK: Anthony, you are interpreting like I would. Didn't read Ghost Touch carefully enough. " Essentially, a ghost touch weapon counts as either corporeal or incorporeal at any given time, whichever is more beneficial to the wielder."

Damage reinstated; Tyrannosaur has 99 damage.

All, my apologies up front for so many Out Of Character posts. While I realize it breaks the suspense of belief, I think we need to make sure that all of you and I are on the same page as to playing styles and certain rules that have been OK in the past. :-)

1) How does Echlhin speak with the Air Elemental? Air Elementals speak "Auran" and that is not a language Echlhin knows, neither does he show a Tongues spell active. Failing any communication, the Air Elemental will attack the closest seen enemy as best it is able. (Also, has there been a past expectation that Echlhin could speak with any intelligent summoned creature?)

2) Vedik mentions drawing a wand and getting 'ready'. As DM, I would interpret that as a "Readied Action", but can't make him move without knowing what the wand is or what the Readied trigger action is. This is a potential loss of an action round.

3) Please tell me if there has been past expectations on actions that I am interpreting differently. Knowing that you are expecting result X when I give result Y will help reduce frustration; yours and mine :-)

Plyf continues to descend from her feather fall, 600 feet up.

Dwight slays Tinderbranch and changes targets to the Trnannosaur before floating up slightly. (5' move only available)

Echlhin finishes his summoning and a Genie appears (DM change to reflect hero intent). Because Genies speak common, the Grim is able to speak with it, and indicate the Fog is a serious problem to the battle. He then Heals Monthor.

The Genie turns into a Whirlwind and easily blows the Obscuring Mist away in mere seconds!

Vedik draws a wand of DDoor out of his pouch, and gets ready to bring this battle to an end.

Tratain casts Shield Other on Monthor and then steps next to the Dwarf.

Monthor slays the T Rex with one blow, and, stepping forward, downs Twig in the same series of attacks!

......................

As the Obscuring Mist is blown away, the Gray Knights can see what has been hiding. Tendrix the Dread Lich is finishing up another Summoning spell, Lupo the Skeletal Wolf is guarding his companion, and the Draco-Lich is right behind Tendrix!!!

The large skeletal Wolf takes a step up and snaps at the Whirlwind Genie. It's magical jaws snap three times, severely wounding the Genie!

Tendrix finishes another summoning spell, and 4 Arrowhawks appear behind the Genie and near Vedik and Echlhin! Three of the Arrowhawks are closest to the Genie, and electric blasts end the Genie's brief stay in the Wold (Touch AC 31, 30, 22 Dam 5, 9, 9). The fourth turns towards the flying Vedik, and another blast of electricity sizzles forth. (Touch AC 31, Vedik takes 8 damage)

With the loss of his fog, Tendrix doesn't seem to want to try another summoning spell, but turns to other weapons. The skeletal grin turns and casts another spell that appears to have no immediate effect. Spellcraft DC 20 Highlight to display spoiler: {Anti-Life Shell} "My dear visitors", Tendrix says in his sweet echoing voice of the grave, "your death is a natural part of the Wold. I have known of your coming since Backkis flew and told me of intruders on the island. You have no hope of beating the two of us."

The Draco-Lich also immediately knows the Fog's defenses are gone. With a roar, it moves around the Skeletal Wolf and lays out a blast of Lightning across Monthor and Tratain! Monthor and Tratain Reflex DC 30 or take 70 electrical damage. Tratain takes � of whatever damage Monthor gets from Shield Other spell.

Dwight, seeing his opportunity as primary aerial assault coming to an end, he decides to risk one more round against the first lich (assuming he still stands -- else an arrowhawk takes the arrow).

Taking careful aim, Dwight fires

Att #1: 49 + 2(GH) = 51 (nat 20, possible crit if possible: 42+ 2(GH) =44)
Dmg: 12 + 7(holy) + 4(ice) + 3(SA) + 2(GH) = 28 (crit: 37)

Att #2: 35 + 2(GH) = 37
Dmg: 14 + 9(holy) + 4(ice) + 2(SA) + 2(GH) = 31

Att #3: 23 + 2(GH) = 25 -- miss :-(

Att #4: 40 + 2(GH) = 42
Dmg: 13 + 5(holy) + 6(ice) + 4(SA) + 2(GH) = 30

Att #5: 44 + 2(GH) = 46
Dmg: 12 + 8(holy) + 2(ice) + 3(SA) + 2(GH) = 27

Grand total: 116 (125 with crit) --- if holy is the only thing that hits its: 29

Dwight then looks to see if he is going to be pulled from the sky by the new arrivals.

Plyf continues to slowly fall downwards. She is now at 540 feet above the orchard grove.

Vedik calls out the lich's defense, and then fies down towards Monthor and activates his Wand, placing the two of them directly in front of the Draco-Lich.

Tratain is surprised of the appearance of the Dracolich, but then sees the water still dripping from the bones, and the cleric can make an intelligent guess of where the dragon was concealed. Tratain moves forward, casting a Mass Cure Serious Wounds Defensively healing Monthor, Vedick, and himself, slightly wounds the liches, and hurts the Wolf more. (both made Will Saves, Wolf did not). The cleric then casts a Quickened Heal on Tendrix who resists the second spell as well.

Dwight, seeing his opportunity, fires more arrows at the lich, four of them striking him and destroying Tendrix' semblance of life!

Ooc: I'll allow Monthor to take his shots this round and next round. The damage from Backkis still stands even if Monthor is able to kill him this round. (which I bet he won't)

......................

The Arrowhawks fire more electrical attacks; three on Vedik and one on Echlhin. (Touch AC 25, 26, 29 Vedik takes 24 electric damage; Touch AC 25 Echlhin takes 13 electric damage

The large skeletal Wolf takes a step up and snaps at Monthor, missing twice.

The Draco-Lich looks to take a hero down with him and takes his full fury out on Monthor. Two claws, two wing buffets, a great mouth of teeth and a smashing tail all land on the large dwarf. Mercifully, the tail doesn't hit a critical spot, but still Monthor and Tratain both take 68 damage!, (AC 55, 41, 55 crit 36 no, 53, 45, 40 Dam 22, 17, 31, 34, 19, 13)

Plyf falls to the fllor of the area, casting another Feather Fall before hitting bottom and makes a tumbling movement to L20, again grabbing her scroll from her pouch. Once at L20, she reads it, in an attempt to disenchant the Dracolich attacking them and perhaps hoping the other lich is also close enough.

Enlarge -The target gains a +2 size bonus to Strength, a -2 size penalty to Dexterity (to a minimum of 1), and a -1 penalty on attack rolls and AC due to its increased size.
Freedom of Movement This spell enables you or a creature you touch to move and attack normally for the duration of the spell, even under the influence of magic that usually impedes movement, such as paralysis, solid fog, slow, and web. The subject automatically succeeds on any grapple check made to resist a grapple attempt, as well as on grapple checks or Escape Artist checks made to escape a grapple or a pin.

Haste -When making a full attack action, a hasted creature may make one extra attack with any weapon he is holding. The attack is made using the creature's full base attack bonus, plus any modifiers appropriate to the situation. (This effect is not cumulative with similar effects, such as that provided by a weapon of speed, nor does it actually grant an extra action, so you can't use it to cast a second spell or otherwise take an extra action in the round.)
A hasted creature gains a +1 bonus on attack rolls and a +1 dodge bonus to AC and Reflex saves
Shield Other-+1 deflection bonus to AC and a +1 resistance bonus on saves. The subject takes only half damage from all wounds and attacks (including that dealt by special abilities) that deal hit point damage. The amount of damage not taken by the warded creature is taken by you.

Monthor's beard gets fried at the ends as the lich's electricity hits him dead on. He takes consolation however that between his armor's protection and Tratain's shield, he ends up taking a lot less damage then he could of.

Plyf, dismisses her Feather Fall dropping further to the ground, and then casts another Feather Fall to avoid stumbling. She tumbles to avoid the Wolf or Draco-Lich getting a bead on her, and pulls out her devastating scroll. (ooc: Dismiss is a standard action, pull scroll part of move action. Plyf can read the scroll next round if there is still an enemy there.)

Monthor gets to the task at hand and strikes at the beast. Two massive cuts by the axe of the dwarf power through and the Draco-Lich Backkis is reduced to a pile of bones!

Tratain, seeing the Draco-Lich is dead, instead uses his Sunbeam at the Wolf.

Vedik uses a vial of Holy Water on the Wolf, ending that undead's unlife!

Echlhin moves up to Tratain and readies an action to cast Heal on him if he takes more damage.

Dwight pulls his bow back to target the Arrowhawks, slaying 2 of them quickly.

.......................

With only two Arrowhawks left in the grove, the battle becomes short and very one-sided. The Grey Knights stand about with the corpses of a dragon, man, wolf, two trees, 6 shambling mounds, and the poofed summons of 5 Arrowhawks and a Dinosaur.

Tratain looks around but sees no other arrivals to the battlefield.

Tratain tells the others to search and heal up while he keeps watch. He also does a little healing on his own. With his Wand of Cure Light Wounds, a minute and a half passes for the quickly searching Gray Knights. (15 charges used, 15 rounds have passed.)

Dwight looks for enemies but seems to have some bone dust in his eye; probably the result of Monthor's axe meeting the Draco-Lich. He fares much better in looking for equipment.

Plyf only looks for a moment or two before the Heightened Empowered Poison courses through her viens once again. This time, weakened already by the Malaria she has contracted, the poison's secondary damage has a devestating effect. Plyf loses 15 CON. The half-elf suddenly sits down, weakened terribly. And, as the wounds from the Wolf catches up to her, she topples lifeless to the ground!

(ooc: no need to kill Plyf off, Buzz, it happened naturally. Natural roll of d10 empowered leaves Plyf with CON of 4, dropping her HP to 22. The Wolf in first 2 rounds wounded Plyf for 33 Damage, so Plyf is now at -11 HP: DEAD)

The others also look for equipment and the two Soul Gems they have been told about...

The rotting vegetation intrudes into the scene, pungent odors from the forest, the algae-covered pool. Vermin are nosing about the hedge, and slime-covered vines twitch as if they want to reach out, out to the living Grey Knights...

Around the bones of the Draco-Lich, the heroes discover an amulet and 2 rings.

Among the bones of Tendrix, the heroes search his clothes, a robe, cloak, belt, moccasins and find 2 rings, a periapt, a set of bracers, and his druidic staff.

In the algae-covered surface of the pool, the water is surprisingly clear. Resting on the bottom is a wooden sphere, obviously out of place from the rest of the natural-looking wood.

ooc: DM rolling for Plyf since Buzz said he'd be away

Diving into the water, Plyf comes out with the Wooden Sphere. She looked it over and determined that there is no traps on the sphere. Getting out of the water, she looks it over and sees a crack, like a puzzle ball. Carefully removing one piece at a time and finally the ball comes undone to reveal a Green Gem Shard. From the descriptions the Grey Knights have recieved, it is obviously a Soul Gem.

Yet Plyf overlooked a small piece of information. As the last wooden sphere piece touches the ground, they begin to transform. Each of the dozen pieces change and grow into a black crystal tree. Plyf immediately understands where these trees come from. "They are crystal trees from Koshe-Marr!", the half-elf bard sings to her companions.

The crystal trees of Koshe-Marr
Made of shadowed crystal they are
Shatter they at slightest sound
Buries all within the ground
Unless harmonics kept at bay
Bardic song keeps safe the day

Beware if I stop singing here
The crystal trees will spread I fear
I shall stay and sing them still
while Gray Knights thwart lich's will

ooc: Plyf is now an NPC. She is going to stay here and sing the trees to a stand still. If the Grey Knights are successful in defeating the Dread, I'm sure she'll be OK and be able to retire someplace. If the Gray Knights lose, well, I bet she'll get captured by a lich and be kept alive for a long, long time....

"Anyone have any idea how long before Backkisss will return if his sssoul gem remainsss free?"

Dwight looks to Plyf, hoping the group can finish what they have set out before Plyf finishes her song. He looks around to see if they are still being watched.

spot: 34 + 2(GH) = 36

If he sees any eyes, he draws his bow and fires.

OOC: Not to be a scavenger, but does Plyf has any high 'party' need items? Perhaps the wand of greater invisibility? We need to take these prior to leaving Plyf if she will part with them.

A Green Shard (DM SteveK)
Tuesday June 1st, 2010 10:37:39 AM
Plyf is keeping up a steady singing and rhythm that slews around the usual harmonics, but has the effect of keeping the Koshe-Marr crystal trees from expanding and shattering.

Plyf is able to hand off 2 wands: Improved Greater Invisibility (45) charges, Cure Critical Wounds (48 charges)

The dead trees and slime covered hedge idly wave in a breeze that isn't there. A mangy rat looks at the group from beneath a thorny bush. All is quiet and there is no sign of other foes in the immediate area.

Tratain is fairly certain that the Grey Knights will have time to acquire all the soul gems before having to destroy any. Thier time schedule on the flying castle is fairly tight, and the heroes will win or lose before any lichs reform. (It will take at least 24 hours for any lich to reform)

The Grey Knights have collected some usual suspects for possible valuables to include the shard of a green gem found within the Wooden Sphere. Other items include an amulet and 2 rings from Backkis and a robe, cloak, belt, moccasins, 2 rings, a periapt, a set of bracers, and a staff from Tendrix. Whether any are magic or have other uses? No one knows.

The Green Gem Shard looks smooth over one quarter, and the rest of it is a pattern of ridges and grooves; very strange. As the Gray Knights look at the facets, they can see there is a type of pattern: almost like that of a key...

He examines the Gem and says to the others "This Gem looks Odd. Perhaps all of the gems fit together and make something bigger. I guess we can't destroy any pieces until we are sure. I think we should actually check out that portal if it is still there. We should have some time before it re-appears and we don't want to give the others too much time to prepare for us."

Portal in the Orchard (DM SteveK)
Wednesday June 2nd, 2010 10:52:36 AM
Traitain picks up Tendrix' Soul Gem.

The Grey Knights praise the courage of Plyf to keep the demi-plane of horror at bay by her singing while the rest go and slay the other six lichs... and then the Dread Lich itself. As the heroes walk (or fly) away from the grove, leaving the equipment of the two liches, they remember what Vran told them before the assault...

"we've got a chance to cut off the head of the Sons. For the first time since the Sons of Dread were formed, all eight of the Dread Liches are gathered in a single place." He points to the Skycastle. "Up there are the eight liches responsible for nearly all of the activities undertaken in the name of the Sons of Dread. And if they're all there together, it means that they need new orders and going to summon the Lord of the Dread himself."

The Grey Knights are certain that if they leave the Lord of the Dread alive, it will only recruit more liches and nothing permenant will be accomplished. If, however, they summon the Lord of the Dread themselves, then they could slay the ultimate head of the organization! Undead and remnants of the Dread would undoubtedly still be around for a long time, but the head will have finally been cut off the viper!

Looking about the portal area for a minute, the spellcasters conclude there is no permanent magic here. Most probably, it is a known location that Tendrix allowed his minions to know about so they could meet him at need.

There is nothing further to be found at the portal space.

It takes another minute for the Gray Knights to return to the rocky hillside which was the Draco-Lich's lair. Sitting deep within the hill, the large diameter (ie 50') Approach Tunnel moves into the ground at a steady 10 degree downslope. Carrion and offal line the walls, drip from the ceiling and cover the floor. Bits of half eaten corpses and decay can be seen everywhere. At the end of the 150' Tunnel lies a 100' oval bowl shaped chamber, half full of a pile of decay and death.

It will take years of sifting the offal and diseased flesh of the pile by hand. How do the Gray Knights propose to find a single Soul Gem?

Dwight hopes to find it, he casts Detect Magic and asks Vedik to show him the other gem. He focuses on the types of magic present in the first gem and then searches the room for the same type of magic.

OOC: I think Detect Magic had been cast the first time we were in this room, so Dwight will begin with the treasure items dropped before.

While Dwight searches with his Detect Magic spell.

If that fails Tratain suggest going right for the Deepest part of the pile hoping that is where the Draco-Lich hid his soul gem.

Residual slime from decomposed plants, the fetid remains of creatures, excrement and more bones than could easily be counted heap the pile over 35' radius and some 15' deep. The smell is putrid, the stench of death everywhere.

Tratain shows the other heroes Tendrix' Soul Gem. Assuming the other liches have similar gems, everyone has a good idea of what they are looking for.

Dwight thinks back 10 minutes to the last time they were in the Cave. Plyf did a cursory inspection and had found a magical ring which she gave to Dwight. No other magical auras had been found.

Of course, the rotting pile disrupts line of sight for the Detect Magic spells, and so it will be necessary to sift through the detrius. As before, the heroes estimate a couple of hours will be necessary to go through the entire pile by hand...

Tratain asks to see the Items they found on the Draco-Lich's Body and looks them over to make sure that none of those things might fit together with the Druids Soul Gem.

If none of those items seems to fit he says "Echlhin, any chance you can shift into something small like a Rat or a snake and go through the pile there quickly? Otherwise we're going to spend a while digging though it and it won't be pleasant."

Rotting Cave- Digging (DM SteveK)
Tuesday June 8th, 2010 12:25:05 PM
Monthor suggests burning off the rotting parts.

Tratain thinks about what was taken from the large pile of bones that was the Draco-Lich. When Vedik produces an amulet and two rings, it is obvious none of those go with the Green Gem Shard.

And so it goes to Plan B. Echlhin shape changes into a dire rat, the best he can think of to dig into filth. For 10 minutes he burrows and sniffs and looks for glittery things. Echlhin isn't sure that he's covered the mound, and there is no animal he knows he can shape into that enables seeing through objects such as this filth. The druid/thamauturgist/grim is fairly certain checking like this will take at least an hour.

And another danger for staying in this cave begins to present itself. Across the currents of air, borne along with the stench of rotting death, viral diseases and bacterial infections begin to plauge our heroes. (ooc: all Fort DC 20 or contract a disease)

Echlhin, having burrowed amongst the worst of the carriers, has TWO saves Fort DC 20.

(ooc: DM roll for Monthor vs Disease. Fort 32, success)

With Tratain and Monthor on guard against any invasion, Echlhin, Vedik, and Dwight search. With those three stalwarts pitching in, the messy, pungent, disease-ridden pile of filth and decay is sifted through in an hour. Maggots and leaches, mold and slime, rotting meat and things unseen are in and around the pile, and by the time the three searchers are finished, they have come across nearly every bad smell known to the history of the Wold. (ooc: Tratain and Monthor Fort DC 20 six times. Echlhiin, Vedik, and Dwight Fort DC 20 TWELVE times. Failure begins with sniffles and a cough. Nat "1" is auto fail.)

Nothing but filth is found.

At the end of an hour, two things are abundantly clear; Brackkis' Soul Gem is not here, and the Gray Knights have not yet been attacked. And these two facts form two questions...

#1: If the Draco-Lich didn't hide the Soul Gem in his cave and he is as paranoid as any chaotic evil thing the heroes have ever heard of, where would he keep the Soul Gem?

#2: If the Gray Knights haven't been attacked, but they were followed by Prying Eyes (which means that someone knows they are here), what are the unknown observers waiting for and what deviousness are they up to?

While the first question can be frustrating, it is the second one that is slowly playing on everyone's nerves; waiting for the other shoe to drop...

Dwight also isn't feeling very good. He shivers, and then he begins to see sparks in front of his eyes. His skin turns red and very warm to the touch, and his muscles spasm, causing uncontrollable twitching. Heal Skill DC 15 to identify disease Dwight has contracted Highlight to display spoiler: { the Blinding Sickness, Red Ache, and The Shakes} Dwight loses 5 STR, and 2 DEX

Not finding anything more, Tratain considers the Mausoleum to seek out more liches to destroy. He renews 5 Deathward spells from his wand, 10 Resist spells from his wand, and calls on Vedik to use 5 charges from his Stoneskin wand. (ooc: Please mark off of sheet; 15 rounds passed to cast all wand spells)

They move away from the filthy mound of decay, and consider where the Soul Gem may be. Tratain remembers that the ring found earlier was picked up by Plyf and now in Dwight's possession; it is no indicator if anyone has been here or not. Thinking about how powerful a spellcaster a lich is, it may not be possible to locate the Soul Gems without magical means.

And time is ticking away. The heroes know that the liches will only be here for 24 hours. Less than one day to end the threat of the Dread!

The Mausoleum (DM SteveK)
Friday June 11th, 2010 10:19:45 AM
Tratain pulls out another wand and partially cures Monthor and Dwight. They can more or less function normally now (ability scores restored), but the fever, swelling, shakes, and occasional insane giggling are still present.

(ooc: being new, how do the GK move quickly from one place to another? All flying? Teleportation? Anyone actually walking at 20' per round?)

Still, the Gray Knights are back to fighting trim. They move out of the disease and decayed stench of the Cave on the rocky hill, and fly towards the great Mausoleum. As they fly, thier eyes sweep around the surface of the flying castle: the hillside of sharp rocks and barren of life, the decaying orchard whose trees and hanging, slimey moss still sluggishly moving in a ghostly wind, the mass of undead in front of the Castle proper that animates, eats itself, and animates again in a grotesque semblance of the birth-death cycle. In a few minutes, the Gray Knights arrive at the front of the Mausoleum.

The structure is made from rusted Iron, blackened Marble with green veining, and slate grey Granite. A pair of grotesque gargoyles stand at either side of the wide broken stone steps that lead down 15' to a pair of great Iron doors. Above the Iron Doors, a third twisted shape that may have once been human is splayed on the peak and watching the area below with dead lifeless eyes carved in stone. The entire structure, measuring 40' wide, 30' and 120' long, lists down and to the right, as if it has sunk several feet since it was first built. One of the iron doors is no longer entirely above the ground. Choked with mud, thick dead grass and rust in the hinges, this door is pernamently ajar from its frame. The other seems tightly sealed, but a 3' gap now lies between them allowing one to squeeze in or out.

The steeply slanted roof runs in a jagged line covered in green copper thick plates down the spine of this forgotten building of the dead.

When everyone is ready Tratain moves down the stairs and stops at the door watching the statues as he goes. If nothing Happens he attempts to look through the door and then go through if no danger is righto n the other side of the door that he can see.

Tratain warns the GK that the statues may be golems. He lays out a plan, and then waits for the others to get ready before moving towards the doors.

Dwight loads his bow and covers Tratain, anticipating the statues are going to come to life.

Vedik gets his wand, nervous about the quiet.

Monthor plays musical magic items, placing a golembane scarab about his neck and scanning the area. The dwarf knows the statues are not golems, and there are no golems within 60 feet.

...........................

As Tratain goes down to the base of the stairs, a hand reaches out of the left-side statue and attempts to swipe at the cleric. Dwight is Readied, take one shot . Emerging from the statue is a ghostly form of a old man without any clothes on at all. His face is contorted in a raging mask of hatred. The hand passes through Tratain's arm, leaving him shuddering at the coldness of the grave! Touch AC 21 hit, Dam 5 + Fort DC 25 or lose 6 CON

From the right-side statue, another ghostly image appears and reaches a hand for Tratain. This time, the hand belongs to an equally naked, old woman. She screeches as her hand plunges through Tratain's hastily raised shield to touch his arm!! Touch AC 23, Dam 6 + Fort DC 25 or lose 7 CON

And from the statue over the door, a shadowy liontaur emerges. It is ripped nearly in half, his upper human torso twisted and spun about itself like black taffy. The lower half is broken and crushed so horribly it barely retains a quadreped form. A paw bats at Tratain, passing through the cleric's head!!! Touch AC 30, Dam 3 + Fort DC 25 or lose 4 CON

(ooc: I see Tratain's Touch AC as 18 (10 base + 5 deflection +3 dex. Armor and enchantment bonus' don't work for Touch Attacks.)

Dwight anticipates something happening and plugs the naked man undead with a ghostly arrow. He follows up with four more, but his nerves must be affecting his aim, for only two more hit. The Old Man shrieks in anger and fear.

Tratain has his Stoneskin and Deathward protecting him and so is in no danger whatsoever from these incorporal undead. A Quickened Spiritual Hammer comes out to twack the Old Man, and Tratains own Warhammer lands solidly 2 more times.

Echlhin doesn't want to be held up by some ghost-thingees, and perhaps he wants to make up for the fact that he didn't use his Grim abilities to check for disembodied spirits in the area. And so he Firestorms the three apparitions... and Tratain! Only the Old Woman twists away from the blast; the Old Man dissapating in a wail, and even the Mashed Liontaur looking sizzled. Tratain Reflex DC 25 or take 78 Damage; save = 39 damage (before stoneskin)

Vedik doesn't want Monthor to get possessed and so taps the dwarf with a Protection from Evil wand. He now stands next to the warrior with a wand in each hand: Protection and DDoor.

...........................

The Old Woman shrieks her hatred and again tries to push through Tratain's defenses. She easily bypasses his tough armor, and her fury even gets through the Stoneskin (a little). Touch AC 36 Crit 34 YES, Dam 21 + Death Ward protects v Ability Drain

Mashed Liontaur strikes Tratain as well, and his large paw lands some scratches through Tratain's Stoneskin as well! Touch AC 34 Dam 12 + Death Ward protects v Ability Drain

ooc> Request
Can we agree on a cut off time each day for posting please before the next turn is up?

SteveK: Yves and other GKers, I'm not going to be able to do that. My schedule is flexible, which also means I can get pulled by a crisis at any time of the day. I tend to post when there is downtime. 90% of the time, I will give at least 24 hours between my posts to enable the Players at least one day to make thier posts. Sometimes, I can't do that, and will either post a little early (when it doesn't matter much) or skip that day's post.

In this case, 3 Dread Wraiths that can't touch Tratain due to his Death Ward and Stoneskin I thought of as 'doesn't matter much'.

My fault this time.

In July/August, BZ whom I co-DM with, will take over as primary DM. I'll be on a 2 month Field Training Exercise with the Army and won't be able to post til I get back. He'll have his own posting schedule.

Between the unexpected firestorm and the two remaining ghosts Tratain is thankful for all the magical protections he has that keep him mostly safe. (reflex save 31, so 39 Fire Damage, Fire Resistance absorbs 30 so 9 Damage.)

Tratain starts attacking the Liontaur but doesn't seem to have much luck this time.
(Looks like all but last attack miss due to miss chance, last attack hits AC14 which I assume misses.)

Monthor rushes forward and strikes a good blow at the Mashed Liontaur, dispersing the apparition into nothingness with a shriek.

Tratain feels Echlhin's spell more than the undead are able to do, and the thought makes it difficult to concentrate. None of his attempts touch the Old Woman.

Echlhin uses his Grim ability to search out any other disembodied sprits in the area. Within 100 feet, he knows there are no ectoplasmic manifestations (none within immediate vicinity of mausoleum). But there are incorporal undead within his 500 foot range. Many, many lost souls wander about the Flying Castle of the Dread. Echlhin can see at least 100!

Vedik puts a Prot v Evil on himself, thinking how much better would a Magic Missle wand be about now!

...........................

The Old Woman shrieks her hatred and turns her hatred (and hands) against Monthor. "You have protected yourself, but what of your dwarf slave?" she cackles. Her touch easily passes Monthor's vaunted armor, but the undead screams her fury; the Stoneskin and Death Ward spells make her attacks futile! Touch AC 21 Dam 6 (Stoneskin) + Death Ward protects v Ability Drain

The Mausoleum (DM SteveK)
Thursday June 17th, 2010 2:55:22 PM
The combined assault of the Gray Knights is enough to destroy the incorporal undead (whatever they were). Oddly, nothing else is coming out of the Mausoleum and nothing is rushing to the rescue from other places around the Flying Castle. It is as if no one knows what is going on in this little corner of the liches domain. Or that no one cares...

The recent attack jarring his mind loose, Echlhin asks if he can see the Spirit Gem that was found earlier. He then again focuses to see what spirits he can sense around him as well what feeling one of those gems may provide in order to better try and locate them in the future.

Vedik nods. He stores the wands he's holding, takes out and uses the Good Hope wand, and then stores it as well.

He watches Echlhin with curiosity. "Do ya think you can find the gems by looking for the spirit?"

Dwight loads and scans the area for enemy. He can see no tell tale signs of any opponents or watchers.

Tratain asks Vedik to recast Good Hope on everyone and peers through the doorway. It is completely dark, an enveloping blackness that the cleric can't see a foot beyond the door. The only thing he spots is the broken and cracked tiles near the entranceway.

Echlhin asks to see the Soul Gem. Perhaps, it is reasoned, the Grim would have a way to find the gems of the liches.

Vedik stores some wands and pulls out his Good Hope wand and casts, then puts it away again. (2 rounds)

Monthor stays behind Tratain and is ready to follow though the Door.

Dwight looks at the supposed rusted gates as Tratain goes through. He wishes he still had that anchor in his sack, just to pin the gate open, despite their appearance of not moving recently.

The blackness beyond also causes some concern. He looks into it, from beyond Monthor's shoulder.

Spot: 25

OOC: Are gates solid or barred? Want to know if I can shoot through them, and if so, what penalty I might have.

Tratain moves up the steps a little and pulls out the soul gem for Echlin to examine. While doing so he says "Monthor, can you see anything inside those doors? I can't tell if its just Dark or theres some magic maeking it so we can't see."

If Monthor and Dwight can not see into the door either Tratain will cast True sight on himself and go take another look to see what he can see before deciding if he wants to enter or not.

The Mausoleum (DM SteveK)
Monday June 21st, 2010 9:56:06 AM
Echlhin takes a long look at the Soul Gem, and there is a peculiar 'taste' to the soul residing within Tendrix' Gem. A search towards the Mausoleum is blocked by stone, iron, and lead. Perhaps if the Grim were go go inside...

Dwight looks about and tries to look through the Doors. He notes broken tiles of some sort of mosaic, a ripped half of a book, and the merest hint of some bones lying beyond. The halfling is certain that his low-light vision is working appropriately and is not hampered by magical darkness.

Tratain stands outside the doors. The demi-human low-light vision is working, the darkness inside is only 'normal' darkness that comes from no light whatsoever inside.

"Perhapsss a light sssource? Anything in there can sssurely sssee usss and heard the combat. Only fair we can sssee it as well. I've got a torch and a flaming ssshortsssword, want to throw one in?"

If anyone believes this is a good idea, Dwight pulls it from his bag and tosses it through the door to provide light.

Wednesday June 23rd, 2010 9:30:42 AM
ooc: not a big worry. I've posted where it didn't take before, too.

Dwight moves to the solid doors and tosses a lit torch into the interior. The flames flicker and dance, revealing the floor and walls up to 20 feet away in its shadowy light. Looking in the door opened only a crack, Dwight and the others can see the cracked and broken floor is littered with the remains of furniture, torn books, and smashed and scattered bones. Four columns stretch from floor to ceiling, each are encircled in dusty tapestries full of dry rot. The air is dry and stale, a dusty and forgotten smell that is very different from the diseased decay of the draco-lich's lair.

Echlhin takes his turn to peer in, sensitive to the particular vibrations of Tendrix's Soul Gem... and feels a spark! There is definitely another Soul Gem somewhere in the mausoleum!

Vedik prepares to follow Monthor.

Monthor prepares to follow Tratain.

Tratain sees no enemy waiting at the narrow entrance, and so squeezes between the doors and into the Mausoleum. As the cleric steps across the threshold, two Symbols flash on the inside wall above the doors! Tratain must make a Fort Save DC 22 and Will Save DC 23 vs the activated Symbols of Pain and Fear!

Fort DC 22 Fail Highlight to display spoiler: { intense pain wracks the heroes body; -4 att/skills/ability checks}

Will DC 23 Fail Highlight to display spoiler: { --2 penalty on attack/saves/skills/ability checks, and run in random direction directly away from fear source.}

The symbols are still active, blazing out thier call for pain and fear to any who cross into thier line of effect.

Tratain can see they would have affected all the Gray Knights, except they are on the inside wall above the doors. The thick stone protects those outside, but anyone crossing the threshold comes under thier potential influence.

Tratain tells the others "Those two symbols are still here, Vedik is there an easy way to get rid of them? The stone seems to be blocking the effect on you all outside. I have a stone shape spell memorized. I can shape the stone so it covers the two symbols if you think that will block the Symbols effects so you can enter."

If Vedik thinks it will work Tratain will cast stone shape and cover the two symbols so the others can enter.

He frowns. "Ya could stone shape twice around each one, make a little pocket of stone with them in side. Think you'd need a stone shape for each of em. But if an enemy undoes it, we're back in the same place, maybe in combat."

With a Clash of Symbols- Solution (DM SteveK)
Friday June 25th, 2010 12:02:37 PM
Tratain identifies a plan to nullify the Symbols using a single spell. Vedik confirms that it should work, and since Stone Shape is an instantaneous spell, it can't be undone by a Dispel Magic. There is always a chance that an active symbol can be revealed, he warns.

Still, Tratain seems to think it is worth it, for he casts the Stone Shape enclosing both Symbols in a stony heart. Now the Symbols only line of affect is within thier one inch prison!

With the Symbols effectively nullified, Tratain and the rest of the Gray Knights enter the tomb. A single flickering torch gives minimal light to the group. Dry and dusty wreckage is scattered across the floor, making any fast movement impossible on the ground.

Echlhin is certain there is a Soul Gem somewhere in the darkness ahead, and no other incorporal beings are about.

A Clash of Symbols- Deja Vu' (DM SteveK)
Monday June 28th, 2010 11:07:49 AM
Dwight floats down, picks up the torch and tosses it to the middle of the mausoleum. During his move, he pulls out his bow. The room lights up further, the shadows almost 40 feet away revealing four shallow steps that lead to a raised area of the mausoleum. Columns march down the long chamber, all draped in dry tapestries.

Montor readies action against any possible attacks that he can see or notice. (ooc: Spot check?)

Tratain moves forward towards the light (Dwight already threw it further into the mausoleum). He is ready for a physical enemy, his sharp eyes seeing more broken mosaics, discarded, dry-rotted books, and bones laying in stains of dried blood. Yet as he passes the first columns, a spot on each column glows in a magical light: two more Symbols!

Vedik hovers off the ground on his wings, avoiding the difficult terrain, but not the Symbols!

"There are likely more of thessse, each pillar?" Dwight offers. "Too bad we can't throw up sssome wallsss all the way to the end," he then chuckles.

Dwight then looks to the next set of pillars to see if he can spot more glyphs: search (rogue): 32 + 2(GH) = 34 If so, he announces to the group prior to Tratain moving on.

Spellcraft: 26 + 2(GH): Do these glyphs appear to be one time set-offs?

Tratain manages to fight off the effects of the two new symbols as well.

He also takes a look at the pillars ahead to see if he can spot any new symbols on those as well. (Spot 36, Natural 20)

He says "Someone really doesn't like visitors. Those symbols could get annoying. Vedik, can I smash them off the pillars? They are already active. We could try going on the outside of the pillars but there are probably other traps there."

Once Tratain and Dwight have finished looking for other symbols on the pillars he continues down the hall.

Vedik shrugs off both of the symbols, looking warily about. When no attack comes, he turns his eye towards the pillars, and Tratain's suggestion.

"It will work, but lemme look at the pillars. This building's not in great shape, so we not wanna be smashing the pillars too hard."

He then inspects the pillars.

The Gray Knights all overcome the magics of the Symbols (DM Roll for Monthor [32, 29] and Echlhin [30, 46], and contemplate how to reduce the possibility of further column-trapped by symbols.

Magical Walls? Dwight says the solution half in jest, and looks to the next set of columns. There! Yes! There is another symbol not yet activated in the air before the second left colmn as well!

Breaking the Columns? Tratain and Vedik uneasily come to the conclusion that the columns support the building. At least part of the roof would certainly come down if the columns are destroyed. Vedik also sees the Symbols are not carved into the stone or tattered tapestries around the columns, but are cast on the very air. Even if the column were destroyed, the Symbols would still be there and awaiting thier trigger action.

Tratain looks around at the other pillars to see if there are more symbol spells cast on them. (Spot 30)

He also without moving any closer attempts to figure out which symbol is the one untriggered that Dwight pointed out without much luck. (Spellcraft 17)

He says "Vedik, can you tell which symbol that is up there? I want to know if its one we can just risk setting off or if we need to get rid of it. Its also strange, this spell normally has to be carved onto a solid surface, I wonder how this Lich got them to stay in the air."

Dwight isn't really in favor of destroying the pillars, or planting a tree as he has been buried alive before and wouldn't like to repeat the experience.

"Perhapsss if we got sssome light to the end of the room, we could teleport passst them?"

Dwight pulls out his lightest filament and a lamp, hoping to get some light down the hall without causing harm. He hands the lamp to someone to light.

(If not in rounds....)
Taking aim, Dwight shoots for the furthest pillar in view (M10) just a few inches above the ground.
Hit: 35 (oops should have been a Rope check: 30+2(GH) = 32 versus DC 10 + 14(70' away) = 24)

After the lamp is on, Dwight slides the lamp down the rope by floating upward and keeping the rope taught.

--Grapnel (x 1) --Sharpshooters can use an arrow or bolt as a grappling hook, requiring a special bowstring filament. The sharpshooter learns how to make three kinds of special bowstring that can be used as rope:

* Light (50 ft): AC18, 1 HP, Str break DC18, Cost 10 gp, can support up to 150 pounds
* Medium (50 ft): AC20, 2 HP, Str break DC20, Cost 15 gp, can support up to 225 pounds
* Heavy (50 ft): AC22, 3 HP, Str break DC22, Cost 20 gp, can support up to 300 pounds

To make a successful Grapnel Trick (as with a grappling hook, PHB126), make a Use Rope check, DC 10, +2 per 10 feet of distance. The DC is increased by +5 for a medium filament and +10 for a heavy filament. Each time the Grapnel Trick is taken beyond the first, a +2 bonus on Grapnel Trick Use Rope checks is gained.

OOC- greetings all! Just a note here to introduce myself. My name is Brian, and I will be hosting your soon to be uncomfortable journey through this module. (Just kidding... maybe). Due to the holiday weekend, I intend to resume this game on Tuesday, though there is a slim chance I will be able to get a post in over the weekend.

For those who dont know me, my play style is a little differnet than Steve's, but hopefully not too much for you. As this is a high level game, and there is tons to keep track of, the odds are I will miss something sooner or later. Just drop a note in your next post about it, or shoot me an email. If it is small, I will correct it, if it is a bigger issue, I may have to make a ruling to move the game along. I intend to be fair at all times, and provide a good, challenging game. In the interest of helping me out, please continue to post spell lists, and active effects in your posts. My email is: bblopeATyahooDOTcom

Any questions, mail me.

Monday July 5th, 2010 10:29:03 PM
OOC- please allow me some grace period as I slide into this game. :)

After numerous checks, the cautious heroes determine that the next symbol is not quite so deadly. It is a symbol of sleep. The only problem is, there is no way to wake someone who is hit by it for several minutes until it wears off. Valuable time in hostile territory. It is unknown whether there are any more symbols yet, and whether it would be safer to magic past the area. It is also unknown if anyone is watching. It is awfully quiet...

Dwight stands at the gap between the doors, looking for danger, not hearing what Echlin mentions.

Spot: 22 + 2(GH) = 24 (outside)

His bow in hand, he is ready to release given the first sign of any type of enemy.

A Clash of Symbols -DMBZ
Monday July 12th, 2010 10:41:04 PM
A figure presents himself at the top of the stairs. Stepping out from behind a pillar, the dread lich greets you. "I am Charzaak. Come, fight me." The lich appears to smile. The creature has the stance of a fighter, and yet ready with spell as well. He beckons to you with a swift motion of his hand.

Behind him, hundreds of candles light up a raised platform. Upon this raised platform is a great sarcophagus flaned by large black wrought iron candlabras holding the remains of nearly 20 thick inky candles each. The candles spew gutteral smoke, thick and greasy, and they give off a horrid stench. It is probably best not to think about what they were made from.

The heroes are not entirely caught unprepared. Tratain moves forward, setting off the symbols. He avoids the effects, but they are still active and will affect anyone else who moves forward more than a few feet. He also lets fly his spiritual hammer at the lich.

Dwight is ready with his bow, and as Charzaak finishes speaking can shoot at him.

Vedik attempts to remain stealthy.

Monthor has a strike readied.(is this ranged?)

Echlin relies on his senses to tell him that lich is where he appears to be.

Vedik notes the melee stance of this Dread Lord with a raised eyebrow. He attempts to capitalize on that fact with a spell thats not of much use against most liches.

He casts Slow on the warrior lich, hoping to take the bite out of his attacks.

Dwight doesn't waste time on talking with this lich, and hopes the lich is full of over confidence as he unleashes his round of arrows.

Att: 48 + 2 = 50 (crit if possible: 44+2=46)

Dwight then prepares to reload from AB13, floating off the floor by about 6'.

arrgh original post eaten. grrr.

Vedik tries a slow spell on the lich, but it proves ineffective this time.

Dwight unleashes a hail of arrows on the lich, but only the holy energies affect the undead creature.

Monthor unleashes a battlecry, then gets himself and Tratain into the action with a teleport.

Tratain casts divine power, and aims his spiritual weapon at the lich, which hits several times. Then he rides along with Monthor.

Echlhin begins casting a spell.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Monthor and Tratain activate a trap upon arrival. A mass inflict serious woundsspell is triggered. Monthor and Tratain can try for DC25 will saves for half damage(18 or 9)(Monthor resists the spell with his SR) The lich seems to heal from the spell.

The lich motions and a pair of dread wraiths step out of the columns near the entrance. One takes a swipe at Dwight, the other attacks Echlhin. Dwight -hit touch AC 34. 4 dmg, plus 7 con drain, Echlhin -hit touch AC25, 10 dmg, plus 2 con drain Echlhin will need to make a concentration check to avoid losing the spell. DC is 20.

"AHA! You have stepped quite nicely into my trap!" The lich makes a full attack on Monthor with his adamantine heavy pick. Monthor- hit AC 35, 27, 24(all missed) The lich then casts a quickened spell, and crackling black energy seeps from it's fingertips...

Dwight attempts to shrug off the effects (OOC: A save wasn't stated, but generally I figured there was a save for ability drains. Rolled Fort: 28 + 2(GH) = 30 -- based on text DC 25 for Dreat Wraith awaiting DM determination.)

Otherwise Dwight takes substantial damage from the suddenly appearing wraiths. (-7 Con brings him to 19 Con, this makes 3 bonus for 16 levels, 48 dmg + 4 dmg = 52 total)

OOC: Also Dread Wraiths are large and can fly if I recall.

Dwight will slide along eastern wall south 5' (or further 10' if large to avoid AOO, not sure of dread wraiths size without a map since they can change forms), and take a shot at the wraith hoping to pin the wraith.

Staple attack: 40 + 2 = 42
A successful staple shot does not cause the target to suffer any penalties, but it cannot move away unless it uses a standard action to pull free (Strength or Escape Artist check vs. a DC equal to the damage the bolt or arrow would have inflicted). If the target is stapled by more than one arrow or bolt, the DC to pull free is the total of all the damage that would have been inflicted by all projectiles -- or each projectile must be broken
DC needed: 9 + 11(holy) + 4(ice) + 2(GH) = 26 (22 excluding ice)
Arrow is ghost touched, so it should pin an incorporeal.

If Dwight only moved 5', then he continues firing his bow. (if he moved more than 5', he only gets the one shot, I think?)

att #2: 42 + 2(GH) = 44 (at dread wraith)
dmg: 10 + 9(holy) + 2(GH) = 21

att #3: 33 + 2(GH) = 35 (at dread wraith)
dmg: 14 + 10(holy) + 2(GH) = 26

att #4: 44 + 2(GH) = 46 (at dread wraith)
dmg: 13 + 6(holy) + 2(GH) = 21

Summary: Stapled needing a DC22 Str in order to move, and took 68 dmg

OOC- sorry about the map, but I'm burning on 5hours of sleep a day right now. It's the best I can do to avoid missing posts.

The ceiling is 30feet high. Dwight can float up, but as has been observed the wraiths can fly. Also, they are large and have reach. Dwight- fort save, yes he gets one. I forgot about it. looks like you made it this time!

Echlhin- no, you dont need a check. I added that on without thinking about it. ghost touch- I think this is a bit overpowered but...reading the PrC, it would seem to indicate that yes, it does work this way. I'll allow it.

staple shot- the arrow is ghost touch, but the pillar is not.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Vedik tries his luck again with the slow spell. But the lich shrugs it off once more.

Tratain and Monthor both pound on the lich mercilessly. It's plan to trap you seems to be faltering...

Dwight moves away from the wraith so he can fire his bow.(provokes AoO) With the first shot, he tries to pin the creature, but the pillar behind it isn't insubstantial enough for the bolt to pin the undead to it. The shot was a standard action. Now Dwight awaits the creature's response...AoO: hit AC 22, miss

Echlhin finishes casting the summon spell. the creature(s) can act this round.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The lich almost has a look of shock upon it's rotting face. "No...you, how?" As the undead crumples to the ground, it mutters a few final words. "It matters not. The Dread will..."

The dread wraith attacking Echlhin tries to hit him again. hit AC 31, miss

The dread wraith attacking Dwight closes the gap, and strikes again. hit AC 20, miss

Echlhin's summon manages to only call forth one Greater Earth Elemental. As it materializes between him and the dread wraith and tries to slam into it, putting its strength the attacks (Power Attack for 5 - Ac: 40, 30 Damage; AC 32, 25 Damage)

Tratain sends his spiritual warhammer after the Wraith Attacking Dwight and he then looks around the building for signs of any more Lich's or that the building has any more levels. (Spot 31)

He says "Monthor, do you see anything else around here? Anymore Liches or does the building go underground?"

Echlhin's summoned elemental benefits from ghost touch and strikes at the undead. It hits twice, but the hurled fire from Echlhin passes harmlessly through the undead.

Tratain changes the target for his spiritual hammer, and it flies off, striking at the wraith. He takes a look around, but the place doesn't seem to have any other levels. The symbols are still in place though, and would have to be bypassed for the others to come over to where the altar are is.

Monthor is satisfied at dropping the lich, then he switches weapons.

Dwight backs up and aims a careful shot at the wraith. The ghost touched arrow sticks into the undead in a satisfying way.

Vedik places a message spell upon the group. He congratulates them on taking down the lich, but the danger here is not yet gone...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
dread wraith1 floats closer to Dwight and attacks him again. The creature misses however, obviously thrown off by the numerous ghost arrows sticking out of it.

With two wraiths now on top of Dwight, and having placed himself in the corner, firing his bow one more times seems to be a bad idea (OOC: my understanding is being in melee combat and firing a bow would give both an AOO). Unfortunately, one bad idea is the only thing that comes to mind.

Death Ward protect him from the ability drain.

He pulls back and fires hoping to finish both.

dmg: 13 + 7(holy) + 2(GH) = 22

Dwight decides to fire his bow, even trapped in the corner as he is. However, Vedik doesn't care for his chances, and before Dwight can fire, surrounds him with a resilient sphere.

OOC- they have combat reflexes, and would have each got an AoO for each shot fired by Dwight. As Vedik readied an action to prevent this, that's the order I used. Also, DM ruling the death ward does NOT protect against the wraiths' attack. DC 25 fort save to resist, otherwise, 14 con drain, plus the 9 damage.

Tratain's spiritual warhammer continues smashing the wraith.

Echlhin directs the summoned creature to attack. OOC- yes, the elemental gets an AoO from last round. Add it onto this rounds actions. The wraith is currently too high to attack.

Monthor throws his axe, hoping for a hit. After missing the undead, it returns to his hand. (rolled miss chance)

The wraiths realize the futility of trying to attack Dwight and look for a new target. They swoop down, and take some swipes at Echlhin. Hit AC: 19, 22 miss

Dwight is safe inside the sphere, but fumes at being out of the action. He shakes off the effects of the wraith's attack.

Tratain's spiritual weapon and Echlhin's ghost touch spell and summoned creature finish off the two wraiths.

The Mausoleum is now eerily quiet, with just the fluttering of the candles as in a light breeze near the altar. The black thick and putrid smoke is still there, but seems a bit less concentrated than before.

There are still two symbols near the center of the room, but they pose less danger now. Those near the door will not be able to get around them without transport magic or making saves.

There are no other creatures present. That you know of...

Once he reaches the alter he gives it a once over to see if he can locate the gem or if he needs to have Echlhin come over to locate it.

Dwight stands back watching Tratain, and Echlin home in on the gem. He loads his bow awaiting whatever is likely to jump out.

"I'm not asss good asss Plyf, but if necessssssary, I could teleport over there and sssearch it? What do you think?"

Vedik makes his way over to the Altar, avoiding the symbols as best he can, flying up and over if need be.

Once at the Altar, he searches around, trying to discern where the lich's soul gem may be. If that fails he plays a game of "If I were a lich, where would I hide my gem".

"Warriors often value their weapons and armor." He throws a knowing look at Monthor and his axe. "Perhaps look for something weapon or armor like, and search the lich's actual weapons and armor.

A Clash of Symbols -DMBZ
Tuesday July 27th, 2010 7:02:02 PM
Tratain stashes the lich's items away, so they can be examined later.(OOC- since you aren't identifying them now, then the whole lot can be dumped on you for the catacombs later on)

Dwight stands guard, and makes ready to fire on any targets that present themselves. So far? none.

Echhlin senses the Soul Gem they are searching for is located near the altar with the burning candles. That would be the place to look.

Vedik flies over the symbols, hugging the ceiling and barely getting around. He begins to search the area, and takes a guess the gem may be hidden on or in a weapon or piece of armor. Vedik notices some slight scratch marks on the floor around the sarcophagus. He believes the candles are dispensing an unhallow effect as they burn. Upon closer inspection, you can see that the candles are made from the former remains of humanoid creatures, and the realization, along with the foul stench makes you nauseous. Fort save DC 20 to avoid being nauseated.- for those near the altar.

Monthor makes ready to defend if any creatures decide to show themselves.

Seeing that Vedik made it to the far side intact, Dwight floats the very top of the room and slowly floats over following the approximate path Vedik did. He then inspects the altar.

If Vedik is right about a passage under this altar, then I'd beat my bow that it's trapped in some way. He thoughts then return to Plyf, wonder how she is managing.

A Clash of Symbols -DMBZ
Thursday July 29th, 2010 7:53:27 PM
Dwight floats over the range of the symbols, and lands safely on the other side. The stench of the candles is strong but diminishing now that the candles have been blown out. The area also feels less...evil.

As you search the altar area, Echlhin gets the distinct impression that the Soul Gem is underneath the sarcophagus. But is it trapped? That is the problem at hand, along with how to move it.

Dwight finds that there are no traps on or attached to the sarcophagus. After all this searching, some barely noticeable scratch marks on the floor have been discovered.

OOC- Can Dwight search for traps? I was under the impression there were no rogues in this group. -edit DMBZ:amended post to reflect info from Dwight.

Soul Quake - Sub DM/Al d20+10=26 ; d20+22=40 ;
Monday August 2nd, 2010 9:09:40 PM

While Monthor watches over the Gray Knights and Tratain puts a judicious distance between himself and the sarcophagus, Dwight, with the aid of Vedik, slides the lid of the sarcophagus aside. Stone grinds against stone, as halfling and dwarf expose the contents of the lich's most sacred bed. As though released from within, a light rises from the sarcophagus as the lid is displaced. A look over the side, reveals that the light comes from another Soul Gem.

Oddly enough, it is Vedik who spies the tail of the runic inscription just beneath the glowing Soul Gem. After having it pointed out, Dwight identifies it as another Symbol, another magic trap. This one, however, seems to be upside down, pointed toward the bottom of the sarcophagus, for some reason. Likely, it is designed to go off, not when the lid of the sarcophagus is removed, but when the Soul Gem is taken.

And that's when it happens. Echlhin sees it first. Or, rather, feels it. It strikes his Grim's senses like a physical blow, though is body feels not a thing. The world slips several feet in the diagonal, stops abruptly and then begins to shake violently. The other Gray Knights are also tossed about as though in a storm.

The shaking subsides, dies away, and then stills. The Gray Knights find themselves standing as they were before the shaking began. They have the distinct feeling from their bodies that they have been still and unmoving. The smoke from the extinguished candles rise straight up, as though undisturbed. The lid of the sarcophagus is where Dwight and Vedik had left it.

A powerful force had moved through and left all physical things untouched. Echlhin's Grim senses feel the residual power. He can feel the trail of its passage. He can sense its direction, and that direction lies back the way the Knights had come in. It lies in the direction of the entrance to the Mausoleum.

Crimson Shields: Emerging in the Horrid Lands - Sub DM/Al
Tuesday August 3rd, 2010 9:02:07 PM

Like a rising mist, light swells up out of the darkness. And as the light rises, forms begin to take shape. Bleak and forsaken ground. A wall of blackened marble with green veining and slate gray granite. Not a wall, but a building, a single long building, eerie in its singular detachment from all other things upon this bleak and blasted, earth. Thirty feet up, a steeply slanted roof runs in a jagged line covered in green copper thick plates down the spine of the building, and at one end is a set of wide broken stone steps, flanked by two twisted stone gargoyles. The stairs lead down fifteen feet to a landing choked with mud and sickly weeds. Evidence that this structure is likely listing from its foundation lies in one of a pair of iron doors that has been forced from its place. The door stands permanently ajar leaving a three foot gap through which Mac would have to squeeze should he wish to enter.

A glimpse at the area around the building reveals the light rolling further back, exposing a scape of odd and unnatural character. A grove of trees. A regular grouping of trees, possibly an orchard. A pool of water by which stands a columned building surmounted by a solid stone roof. Dominated, however, over them all, the spires of a castle rise into the sky. Briarwood and bramble vines grow up the sides of what were once likely walls of beautiful marble and sandstone. Flying buttresses curve and soar, pulling the viewers eye ever upward. But the grandeur is marred by the deep red stains on the outer walls made by blood that drips constantly from the collection of arms, heads, feet, torsos, hands, draped entrails, all manners of body parts sewn together into the form of a huge humanoid skeleton staked over a defiled symbol of Gargul. The macabre desecration of life is mounted on the highest spire of the castle where a black cloud of feeding carrion birds wheel through the air and gather in black patches on the grotesque work of art to rip and tear at the flesh. To remain whole in the face of such voracious consupmtion, one cannot help but think that the bodies must be replaced on a regular basis.

Down below at the entrance to the castle, a twisted host of zombies, ghouls, wights and even animated heads and hands tear and feed upon each other. They rip at each other. They consume each others' flesh. They fall, only to each be reanimated, and rise over and over and over to begin again.

But, as shocking and unearthly as this scene may be, there is still a wrongness that goes beyond the horror of the undead. The grove, the orchard, the pool and parthenon, the castle, this building - this mausoleum - that the Crimson Shields now stand by, all seem oddly disjointed. The lands that they stand upon seem disconnected, as though they are floating, somehow apart from each other.

On the ground nearby, the battery lies its color now gray, its light now weak and wan. Again the Crimson Shields feel a pang that speaks to them of the importance of the battery. Without it, their new powers will not last.

Gray Knights: Finding a Direction - Sub DM/Al
Tuesday August 3rd, 2010 9:02:55 PM

The Gray Knights try to make sense of the force that has just shaken their souls.

Dwight suggests a renewed search for the Soul Gem of the Draco Lich. There is one Soul Gem in hand. One now lies at the bottom of the sarcophagus for any who would dare the symbol beneath it. Five more Sons of the Dread still lurk somewhere in these floating lands. And beyond them all, lies The Dread himself.

Echlhin points out the direction in which he had felt the presence, back toward the entrance of the Mausoleum.

Vedik, I think you should pick it up if you think it safe, or if we can't come up with a better plan. Let me know if you think we should dispel that symbol underneath it."

Tratain stands a little away from the group in the middle of the Mausoleum keeping an eye out on the door just incase any of the other Lichs should try and enter.

"Ugh!", comments Jass in distaste, "it looks like stories I've heard of Koshe-Marr!" he doesn't bother to keep his voice down, not hearing anything moving nearby.

Looking around, he guages the mausoleum to see if there are any active spells nearby as he casts a quick spell on himself. Instantly, Jass looks more like a Lizardfolk, complete with the nice, naturally tough skin of that hearty folk.

He stoops down and grabs the magic battery. "Need to keep this close while we find out what's going on, eh Syr?"

Furball sits on Jass' shoulder and sniffs the air, unperturbed that his partner is now a lizard.

Vedik tries to take a look at the symbol without disturbing the soul gem. Even before looking though, he simply states "I'd be guessing Death or Insanity. It's what I'd put there." He then tries to identify it.

The elf nods as Jass scoops up the battery. "Yup, we do need to keep it handy. You certainly look better since it's been around. " He looks at the man closely, measuring his words carefully and suggests as an afterthought, "Considering how the last week or so has treated you, how about someone else carry it for the time being?" With an unwavering gaze, he looks into Jass' eyes for any signs of the darkness that was once there before casually holding out his hand.

Peering around the area the monk tries to take stock of the situation, "Mac, anything you see that we need to be worried about? Belkior, what's up with this place and all the undead? A location would be nice. Those Star Mages didn't give us much." Not for the first time, he wishes the Undead Hunter was with the group.

Hanging from his broom he then takes a deep breath, and glances out the top of the ajar door.

Crimson Shields: Where Is This Place? - Sub DM/Al
Wednesday August 4th, 2010 8:48:27 PM

Jass and Mac explore the new and macabre environment in which the Crimson Shields find themselves. The wind blows, a constant and unusual sound reminiscent of the winds in the high mountains. Below the sound of the wind are the moans and thudding blows made by the field of undead that continue to battle in front of the castle several hundred yards away. Beyond those sounds, Jass hears nothing. The building next to which the Shields have appeared is eerily silent. From his craft of spells, Jass cannot help but note the incredibly powerful necromantic forces necessary to keep the battling field of undead in constant motion. It his a power beyond his ability to identify. Aside from that, though, he sees nothing that he can detect with the naked human eye. This place, this situation, though brings to Jass mind the vaguest memory of something he once overheard somewhere. A beautiful flying castle in the sky surrounded by floating islands. Something to that effect. But this couldn't be it. Not here. Not this place.

Mac walks about in front of the building, pacing to and fro through the mud. A view from the side of the building shows it to be long and narrow. Aside from that, the minotaur sees nothing particularly threatening. Nothing, that is, that appears to notice him in return.

There appear to be other places to which the Shields might go. The castle, the stone Parthenon, at least two groves of trees. And, there is the entrance to the building before which they now stand. Down a short flight of stairs one of the two iron doors lies wedged open. A three foot wide gap between the doors allows entrance.

Gray Knights: Second Soul Gem - Sub DM/Al
Wednesday August 4th, 2010 8:49:13 PM
Vedik identifies the symbol under Charzaak's Soul Gem. " ... just a symbol of Pain," he mocks. But he does not try the symbol himself by picking up the Gem. Echlhin then. The Grim has already made the offer.

Then the Gray Knights hear voices. " ... Uh ... oshMar! mumblemumble ... onaysir? ... Mac, thing ee whooeeow? ... " From the tones of the voices there appear to be at least two. And, these voices appear to be coming from the entrance of the Mausoleum, the same direction in which Echlhin indicated that he had felt the presence left by the soul quake.

Dwight leaves the Pain of the Symbol to one of the other Gray Knights. Retracing his path, the halfling again avoids the remaining symbols hidden by he pillars and makes it safely to the far side. Floating just inside the three foot wide crack between the two iron doors, he sees a dark-haired male elf with his hand outstretched to receive something from a lizardman with a ferret or a weasel riding on its shoulder. Tucked in between the two is a male halfling who looks about nervously at the, admittedly dangerous looking surroundings. The halfling displays vestments clearly marking himself as a follower of Alemi. As Dwight watches through the crack, the massive bulk of a minotaur, towering above the others, walks into the field of vision, passes, and then walks out of sight again.

Oddly enough, though Dwight makes no effort to hide himself, none of these four appear to see or hear him.

As Tratain and Monthor concur with the other Gray Knights, Echlhin reaches into the sarcophagus and picks up the Soul Gem. A burst of dark energy explodes from the bottom of the sarcophagus catching Echlhin directly in the face. Intense searing pain drives into the Grim's brain like a white hot needle. The sides of the stone sarcophagus contain the burst, shielding the other Gray Knights, and when Echlhin steps back, the blazing darkness subsides. (Fortitude Save vs DC26 or suffer -4 penalty on attack rolls, skill checks, and ability checks for one hour.) No death. No insanity. Just one moment of debilitating pain. Perhaps Chazzak had fully intended to be around when his imagined thief reached into the sarcophagus for the surprise. Wouldn't it be like the lich to want to kill the thief with his own hands while he or she writhed in pain?

(OoC: pardon the liberties taken, but in the interest of moving on, I've had Echlhin actually take the gem.)

Dwight calls to the others with a sharp whistle and puts his fingers to his mouth and then the door pointing. He then holds up his fingers showing four and again points outside.

OOC: Vedik's message spell should still be active.
Dwight whispers/informs the party what he sees just outside (see DM post). He then whispers more "Sssomething isssn't right here, given all the optionsss of polymorphsss, an elf, lizardman, Alemi priessst would not be my firssst choice, or 20th for that matter. The minotaur might be on the lissst, but not crawling through these buildingsss. Be quick with your thoughtsss as they likely have heard usss by now."

Dwight maintains his position, but readies his bow.

The halfling cleric looks around nervously, clearly unsettled by this place. That heaving pile of undead is a clear abomination of the worst sort, even without the desecration of the symbol of Gargul.

"We better get moving. At least to look for shelter. That .... thing ... probably announced our arrival like banging a big brass gong," Belkior states as he motions towards the battery now held by Syr.

The Paragon nervously smoothes his vestments, checking and rechecking that his wands, spell components and every thing else is in the proper place.

"And I doubt that anything living in this place will be friendly."

Jass grins at the elf as he hands over the battery, knowing exactly what Syr is thinking. "I'm not going to be blasting any friends with Cones of Cold right now. My heart and soul are clean of the black taint."

To prove that he is useful and not a liability, the lanky lizardman turns to the open doorway and casts a Dancing Lights spell, causing a ball of glowing light to move through the door, and checks to see if he can see anything.

"This place reminds me of a story in the Southern Lands about a beautiful flying castle. Yet this twisted parody is more like Fidelia's Realm than anything."

Crimson and Gray: Confounding Factors/ A Mid Post Update - Sub DM/Al d20+1=14 ;
Thursday August 5th, 2010 10:35:47 AM

OoC Mid-Post Update:

Jass the Lizardman turns casts a spell before following his dancing lights down the short flight of stone stairs towards the crack between the iron doors. Mac follows close on the heels of the transformed sorcerer.

*tttth*TCHK!

An arrow suddenly sprouts in the stone next to Jass the Lizardman's left leg, pinning the cloth of his trousers to the stairs. Through intention or instinct, Jass kicks out, tearing his leg free of the pinning arrow. Now, however, his trousers have been torn and he is not a happy sorcerer.

The dancing lights pass through the crack in the door, grow dim, and then disappear. Dwight watches as the four glowing balls enter the Mausoleum and move past him. The only thing visible to the Crimson Shields within the crack is a dark, foggy mass.

"Mage's Private Sanctum," Jass says with some satisfaction. Now that he has noticed the effect, identifying the spell is child's play. "There's a privacy ward on this building," he tells the others. "We won't be able to hear or see anything from inside."

"Hold, that were only a warning arrow. Talk. Who are you?" Dwight calls out from just inside the crack. The halfling witch considers, though, whether the strangers will have heard him light of what the Lizardman has just said.

Outside the Mausoleum, the Crimson Shields hear nothing. The Mage's Private Sanctum has prevented Dwight's words from being heard outside the Mausoleum. The Shields also see nothing but the single arrow sticking up from the stone of the stairs.

OoC Notes:

1) Jass/SteveK has informed me that he will be away until the Friday after next. I will be NPC'ing him until then.
2) Dwight's words and actions have been provided per his player's request.
3) Feel free to post more if you'd like. Even if you've already posted for the day.

Feeling a bit dumb, Dwight looks to the others to see if they are moving toward the door as he reloads his bow. He focuses on two figures, the halfling and the lead; the former with his eyes and the latter with his arrow tip.

Syr peeks around the large body of Mac, his ponytail dangling down by his ear as he looks. "Jass, you okay? Someone is either lucky or a decent shot. Did you see where it came from?"

He calls out to the unknown opponent as he moves around Mac to enter the room while displaying his open hands, "Save your arrows. They won't do any good anyway." From his casual stance, the elf does seem particularly worried but more curious for now.

Crimson and Gray: Confrontation - Sub DM/Al
Thursday August 5th, 2010 9:03:32 PM

Still within the protective cover of the Mage's Private Sanctum spell that Charzaak had cast upon the Mausoleum, Dwight remains unseen as he searches for a weapon to shoot, something to disarm the approaching figures. Better safe than sorry, what could possibly bring these four into the lands of the Dread anyway?

Jass raises his hands in surrender as Mac and Syr pass him by and make to enter the iron doors. "I'm holding," the Lizardman says with a casual shrug.

Both the elf and the minotaur will be to the door in a matter of seconds. Where are the other Gray Knights? Dwight makes a split second decision.

*tttth*TCHK!

Just outside the iron doors, Mac feels an arrow strike his boot - another pinning attempt. The arrow does not even slow the minotaur down. Mac rips his boot from the ground without missing a beat.

As Syr and Mac slip through the crack between the two iron doors the dark foggy mass parts and above their heads they see a flying halfling with a bow, obviously the one who's been trying to discourage them from entering. Down the distant dark of the long narrow building comes a voice.

" If yees be friends, come with no fear! If yees not be friends, come on over anyway... me axes would like to have a few words with yee!"

Charzaak's Soul Gem is in hand. Out at the doorway the Gray Knights hear voices as well. One voice belongs to Dwight. The others do not.

Thursday August 5th, 2010 10:13:56 PM
Dwight again loads his bow, floating just a bit higher given the height of minotaur.

"Odd," are the first words out his mouth. Allowing the newcomers to examine the halfling sitting atop a flying broom wearing a very worn and patched cloak and holding a well-polished bow.

Assuming no blades begin swinging, Dwight speaks as he slowly floats up and over to the first set of pillars.

"What .. might .. have .. brought .. you .. all .. to .. Dread .. keep?" The words come in sparse breathes, providing time to check word choice prior to each word. "Be ... you ... faithful .... to . Alemi?

Sense motive: 18 (truth or liar?)

Belkior
Thursday August 5th, 2010 10:17:54 PM
The halfling cleric responds to the second question from the halfling who has just appeared.

"I am Belkior Orvisson, Healer and Paragon of Alemi. As to how we got here, that I cannot tell you. But I am, most certainly, faithful to Alemi."

Belkior is unremarkable in many ways, mainly because his armor and vestment cover most of his body. His hair is close-cropped but showing more gray than any other color. At the moment, he is frowning with suspicion.

OoC: Dwight receives no Hunch as to anything amiss when the one who calls himself Belkior Orvisson declares himself and answers the other halfling's question.

Mac
Friday August 6th, 2010 7:37:10 AM
Mac looks at the rest of the Shields, and the conclusion he reaches causes him no joy. "We are the Crimson Shields, until moments ago of the Floating City. My... they call me Mac. I guess those words mean little if anything to you - as best as we can guess they are not from-around-here, which brings us neatly to Where is 'here'?." Mac draws breath. He may not be a people taur, but he has to have some measure of small unit tactics. He considers and continues, "We don't want whats yours and we don't want to harm whats yours. We aren't thieves and thugs. Clearly, you weren't trying to hurt us - just trying to stop us or keep us back. Either the two of you are alone and we could use the company to explain what has just happened, or there are more of you who might be in need of some assistance? That or we try to find our own way out of who knows where. Oh, and could you please stop knocking your arrows?"

Mac's head and lower horns are wrapped in a red bandana/sash bearing a WLA badge and another dark badge with a white circle and other markings and he is armoured in metallic-green chainmail.

OOC: Can we have more details on the aforementioned columns?

Friday August 6th, 2010 9:04:39 AM
Vedik resists the effects of the symbol. With the soul gem secure, he turns to the voices outside.

He whispers to the Grey Knights "Looks like we have company. I'll fly up and over."

The dwarf flies up and over the columns as he did on the approach to the altar. Making his way back to the entrance, Vedik moves up Dwight. Hearing the Halfling identify himself as a follower of Alemi, the dwarf scratches his beard curiously.

He whispers back to the group "I'd like ta test him, but I've been outta the Wold so long ma knowledge is a bit dated on the current church."

Dressed in white, the figure above you wears the colors of Alemi. Of average height for a Dwarf, his greying brown hair is close cut, and he wears his beard short. Steel Grey eyes watch you, and you can sense quite wisdom and calculation behind them. Feathery wings support him in the air, beating constantly as he hovers. He wears a long vestment, white with red-brown trim. In the center of the vestment is an open hand, also red-brown as if stained by long hours working with the earth. His left arm carries a small silvery buckler and a dark wooden club is attached to his belt. You notice that his hands are dirty, as if he has just come in from the field.

After seeing that the Knight who took the Gem is Ok and hearing voices up near Dwight Tratain walks forward towards the entrance to see what is going on.

He listens for a moment and says "Well Met Belkior, Mac, and the Crimson Shields. My name is Tratain, These are my companions, we are the Grey Knights. You came from the Floating City? I was there once for a brief time, how did you even find this place? I took a lot for us go get here, and its not somewhere you want to end up by accident."

Tratain looks them over and decides they aren't enemies and says "Have you heard of the Organization called the Sons of Dread? This Place belongs to them, The 8 Dread Lords have met here for the first time in a long time to summon the Dread Himself. We are here to destroy them all. We have destroyed 3 of the Dread Lords so far, there are 5 More and the Dread Himself left. We can direct you to someplace safe if you wish to leave." He gestures towards Macs WLA badge and continues "Or if you are up for a fight you could help us take the fight to them aswell."

Monthor, looking uglier and more menacing then usual, steps up next to Tratain. Tapping his Dwarven war axe in his palm, an easy broken toothed grin, this dwarf is definately not one to triffle with.

" Monthor, Axe Head clan. Me gets the girlies here out of trouble. Me also protects the weak, the younglings, cute fuzzy animals and the stupid... like Tratain here.... "

Echlhin makes his way back to the entrance, noting the newcomers and their mysterious appearance. More to himself then the others, he says "... interesting..."

(Appearance included for those that wish. Thin but resilient looking human who looks older then his actual age. Dark, opaque glasses are framed by his weathered face, though it is obvious that they do not impede his vision. His hair is unkempt and roughly cut, but does not dirty. While weathered, his attire appears to be kept in good condition. He wears a robe (dark gray), adorned with a vestment (light grey) displaying the symbol of Gargul. He walks with the use of a well shaped quarterstaff.)

Syr smiles and dips his head once in acknowledgment, "Well... I'm not quite sure of the HOW we came to be here, Something about the Star Mages and the number 8?" He looks back at Jass for confirmation before continuing. "Sons of Dread? Doesn't sound too nice. It definitely isn't someone who the Overlord would be aligned with so I doubt she would have a problem with us giving you a hand."

Those that know elves, see that Syr is still an adolescent. Adulthood has not reached him yet (OOC: only 16 more years :). His carriage and stance reveal either a youthful cockiness or quiet confidence depending upon the person watching. He quickly slides forward as he feet barely seem to move and smiles at the Halfing on the broom. Next he extends an empty hand toward Tratain while keeping an eye on the ugly dwarf next to him,. "Syrdeth Redbow here. The not so quiet lizardman is Jass."

Looking at the other group he comments to Mac, "Feeling a little out of place big guy? I'm one of the taller ones here! What does that make you?" He grins and bows his chest out revealing hardened muscles beneath his shirt.

Crimson and Gray: Greetings - Sub DM/Al
Friday August 6th, 2010 7:00:04 PM

The Gray Knights and the Crimson Shields come together in an atmosphere of relative peace. Caution, however, is evident, and understandable given the place in which they all now are.

They both size each other up at the same time that they give introductions. Neither Belkior nor Vedik can fail to note the vestments that they both wear. The charismatic attraction that the two devotees of Alemi feel while in the presence of each other cannot be counterfeited.

An exchange of information takes place. Names, bits and pieces of the situation. Dread. Son's of Dread. Eight Dread Lords together for the first time. If these "Dread" are responsible for the evil outside, might the collected presence of these Dread be enough to have sent the Shields off course some how and drawn them into this nightmare realm?

Syr mentions the number eight. A coincidence that the Dread Lords number eight? But one is confirmed dead, the single Soul Gem in the possession of the Gray Knights leaving seven left. Perhaps not even that many, as Echlhin arrives with the second Soul Gem from the dread lord that the Gray Knights had been battling up until mere minutes ago. Unless, of course, one counts the Dread himself.

But the real question now is: What to do now? Help these Gray Knights, who are clearly in the process of battling the mysterious Dread? Try to find a way back to Floating City? Try to find a way forward to wherever it is that the Battery was trying to go?

"I'm sure we were on our way to a place called Hook City when we were diverted," Jass says when Syr turns to look at him. "What the eight means, and what this has to do with Floating City ... " The Lizardman gives a shrug, tipping the ferret on his shoulder who chatters and scolds.

The Battery itself glows weakly in Syr's hand. Would it recover? Or has it been destroyed, taking with it the mystery of why it was called to Floating City along with the new powers of the Crimson Shields?

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

OoC: Well, you're together. Feel free to post as much as you like this weekend. I'll be checking in with a ridiculous frequency, and will try to answer any questions that you pose about the situation or about each other.

Otherwise, DM DanielK will be back on Monday. He'll take it for a few days and lead you on to mayhem in his inimitable style. He'll then be gone from the 16th the 18th (Mon-Wed) in which time I will be back. Be ready, DM Daniel gives no quarter. He's not a softy like me.

Good luck. Good gaming.

Saturday August 7th, 2010 11:33:01 AM
Dwight looks at the one called Mac, seeing the WLA badge, he lowers his bow just a bit, keeping the arrow loaded but pointing away from the "shield" folks.

Releashing the tension, he pulls a necklace from around his neck, showing his own WLA badge.

Dwight maintains his position for a bit listening to the conversation. Sensing nothing more afoot than a group of random people appearing one level above hell, Dwight eventually floats back down to the group. He hovers around shoulder height.

"Watch all the .. column in room, .. a powerful magic .. be attached to it. My name .. be Dwight Twiggebundler birthed in Cressscccent Valley." It is with this closing statement, that Dwight's speech is clearly slithered. Those with sharp eyes see that his tongue is split similar to a snake.

Feeling his own slip, his left arm clenches the bow handle, and his right fingers dance along the string, though it is not pulled back anymore.

Tratain shakes Syr's offered Hand and says "Well the Number 8 is a little familiar. There are 8 Dread Lords who run the Organization for the Dread Himself. We have Killed 3 of them, but only found 2 of their soul Gems. There are four we don't know anything about and have to find and destroy. The Fifth one is a little odd. He claims that if we eliminate the Dread and the other Dread Lords he'll turn the Sons of Dread into an organization that just researches magic. I don't really believe him though, he a lich, one of the 8 Dread Lords and he offers nothing to prove what he means, I think he just wants us to eliminate the others for him."

He continues "We were told however that all 8 Dread Lords must come together to summon the Dread From somewhere else. Maybe whatever they are doing interfered with whatever transportation magic you were using and pulled you here."

Mac
Sunday August 8th, 2010 7:30:24 AM
Mac nods in response to Tratain's earlier question and Syr's reply. Then in response to Syr's question he quietly replies, "I'm an apparent target - something I've been trying to turn to my and our benefit. Still, I'm a stranger in an even stranger land, so I'll go with what I know, and learn what I can in the meanwhile."

Having put a face to the voice, Mac greets Monthor in dwarven, and asks for an opportunity to talk and learn axes.

The 'eight and the one' references seem clear, but he realises he hasn't really heard an answer to an earlier question. "So, running with the idea that this isn't where we were intended to go, can anyone enlighten us as to where we are... you know... geographically? I've had the opportunity of traversing some of the southern continent in the past, but this doesn't look like anything I recall - and I'd like to think I'd remember being here before.""

Sunday August 8th, 2010 10:42:39 PM
The halfling cleric approaches the dwarf who is also wearing the vestments of Alemi. After a brief moment, Belkior reaches out to clasp the arm of his fellow cleric.

"Belkior Orvisson, as I said. Lately of Floating City although I went to seminary in Plateau City. Where did you declare your devotion to Alemi?"

"These Dread you and your companions speak about, they're liches? Why would you even consider believing what one of those undead says?"

The dwarf shakes the halflings arm in friendship.

"I studied in a small temple not ta far from Plateau City. A potter by trade, I was called ta the art during tha Year of Ascension, when tha Fixers were founded. The years after that are a bit hazy though.

On the subject of Liches and the Dread, he says "Well, they are like liches, close enough really. We dinna know tha full extent of the differences, though they all seem to have a gem with their soul in it, like a liches phylactery. Its not a matter of trust, really."

On the subject of location, he says "We are on a floating, mobile city of the Dread. Where exactly we are not sure, we teleported ta a jungle ta find a lost people, the Teucrians.

The Lizardman returns Syr's look as if to say, Why are you asking me? You were there too. "All I know is that I saw an image of the bridge in Hook City before the darkness ... " A frown passes over the Jass' reptilian face as he searches for a word. " ... took hold of us."

The sorcerer ponders the names Dread and the Sons of Dread before becoming distracted by, first, the mention of the Pillars, and second ...

"Teucrians?" he asks. "We've had a great number of dealings with things of Teucri make in the past few months. Great teleport ring artifacts. Great pyramids in the Crying Woods. Great powers of the Gray Downs, the entirety of Floating City is supposed to be a Teucri artifact. I wonder if there's a connection?"

Seeing these folks must be friendlies, Dwight relaxes a bit against them. He still doesn't let his guard completely down, being in a old building where a lich stood a few moments ago.

He floats close to the minotaur and sorcerer apologizing for the torn pants and scuffed hoof.

Syr echos Jass thoughts', "Maybe these Dread are the last remnants of the Teurci? Floating City, Flying City, it's a bit too similar for coincidence if you ask me."

The elf calls the other Shields together and doesn't make a secret of the topic, "What do you guys think? Stay and help them? It fits in well with Mac's WLA... The Overlord didn't have any immediate plans for us. I'm inclined to stay. For that matter, could we leave if we wanted to?" He looks at Jass for confirmation. "It would have been nice to have Grigory here, he might have been able to contribute to the discussion."

Crimson and Gray: Conversations DM Dan k
Monday August 9th, 2010 8:45:20 PM
The group continues to speak to each other and get to learn a bit about each other. A lost tribe of Teucrians recently discovered, the Dread and the summoning if the Dread Lord from another place. Powerful magic indeed all within close proximity. The possibilities of another Teucrian device seeking out this area of recent powerful Teucrian activation is very probable.
The subject comes of trusting or rather believing what a Dread Lord says, a liche-like creature, 'of course not' is the quick responce.
As to where this flying island is, like a piece of land ripped from the ground and placed in the sky? That seems to be one of the greatest mysteries. For the stars above have shown it to be niether in the North nor the South. The Knights certainly travelled to the South, to the forbidding land of Ice Vein and the barbarian tribes that call such a place home. But where the Powers of the south imparted the knowledge of this place, or rather the land thousands of feet below them, and thus they transported by magic to it. Where it precisely is remains a mystery.

What is known is that 5 very powerful Dread lords are upon this island and at least one is well aware of the Knights Precense.

The greatest question is simple to ask, what next?

Monday August 9th, 2010 10:49:32 PM
The halfling cleric ponders the question from Syr and what they have learned from the adventurers that they have just met.

"Works for me, Syr. And I miss Grigory, too, since he would probably have had something to add. I agree that we can't go back, at least not right away. And there's work to be done here, too."

"I say that we stay and help."

"And that", he says to Tratain, "is how we reach a consensus. Happy to pitch in. We will endeavour to mesh with your tactics."

"Dwight, we are good, and I believe Jass won't bear a grudge over something so simple to fix. Nice shooting by the way. I wouldn't mind taking a look at your bow, with your permission. I'll be replacing my own soon enough - hopefully I'll have the time to make it myself - and I'm looking for ideas a little out of the ordinary."

Calmly watching the greetings and discussion, Echlhin remains quiet, caught in reflection on the possible reaso for their new companions arrival. "While I feel we should get to know one another sadly our window of opportunity here is limited. Perhaps we can discuss things along the way? For those that plan strategy, I spent my youth learning the magic of the forests until I found my path in service." As his words finish his hand brushes against the symbol on his vestments.

"Grudge?" With a distracted air, Jass the Lizardman casts a quick cantrip. Light falls from his finger to land upon the hem of his trousers, and the tear is as if it never were. "What hole?"

Through the smug smiling facade of satisfaction from the miracle of the minor cantrip, Jass holds deeper thoughts. This place. Everything about this place reminds him of the darkness that had beckoned to his soul but recently. What if it should call again? Would some dark speck within him answer? Would it grow?

"Yes," I agree, the sorcerer says with an uncharacteristic grim finality, "these Dread must be destroyed. All of them."

"And hopefully in time for dinner." The old flippant carefree Jass then emerges, quick as a flare of light. "How long do you expect this will take? If it's only a matter of days, we may be back to Floating City before anyone even realizes that we're gone."

"Where, by the by, is it that you slew this Dread Son without finding his ... Soul Gem? Might we go back there? Lets find that missing phylactery!"

"Oh, and also by the by, may I see the two that you already have?"

Dwight quickly response to Echlin, "Definitely keep apart. Rare due the Dread gather, meaning all gemsss together be required. We don't want to ssssummon without know it. And make it harder for Bassss'Anut to get them all."

"Time be not on our ssside. Lord isss to be sssummoned within the day. Let'sss move", Dwight points to the grove as requested by Jass.

As the group begins to walk, Dwight pulls out another bow from his sack. It's old and worn, but still very taunt. He looks to Mac, and hands him his main bow.

"It providesss extra power againssst evil and thossse not all in the plane."

While Mac looks over his primary bow, he scans about, wielding his secondary bow.

Crimson and Gray: Return to the Orchard DM Dan k
Tuesday August 10th, 2010 11:05:12 PM
The Shields decide to assist the Gray Knights in destroying the Dread. Through thier wands, the Knights cast Good Hope and Stoneskin on each of the Crimson Shields. (Please note active spells in your posts and deduct the charges.)

It is suggested and agreed upon to return to the orchard and conduct another search for the Dread Dragon lords Soul Gem. From there, the group would move to the central building and eventually back to the Parthanon and confront Bas Anut. Time and haste are essential, the Dread will not all remain in this place for long and if any depart they possibility of summoning the Dread Lord and ending his threat to the Wold will depart with them.

Jass asks to see and is given the gems to examine. Immediately, Jass is struck by the power of necromancy warpped about the Soul Gems. The air is blasted from his lungs and he feels the all too familiar pull of absolute death. The sorceror is able to keep his bearings long enough to recognize the main rune within the gem, an Energy Drain spell. What is frightening to the man, so steeped in arcane lore, is that a symbol of power is wrapped about the spell propelling it to heights of magic control he had never dreamed possible.
The gems themselves are about the size of a halflings fist and looking at the two together it is clear they connect. It is also clear that six pieces are missing from the overall puzzle.

The group then begins moving back towards the orchard and the location of the last fight. While the Knights have had a some time to get used to the land the Shields have not. The grass about the groups flutters and seems to strain to grab and take hold of your feet with every step, pushed by an unheard and nonexistant wind. It poses no threat, but it seems that the very land itself is aware and set on hindering all life that walks upon it.

Within a few minutes the group arrives in the choked and perpetually dying orchard. Black trees twist from the ground, rotten fruit hangs upon split and peeling braches, forver rotting, but never fully dying to fall from thier perch. Standing where the Knights left her singing softly is Plyf among the crstal trees , sprung from the desecrated earth, yearing to break free of the bards captivating and soothing song. Her head is covered in sweat, insects buzz about her and the crstal trees of Koshe Marr strain to break from her spell of song. yet the bard seems at ease, her arms comfortably folded about her, her head tilted slightly back and her eyes closed. She notices nothing of the groups approach.

The field of battle is much as the group left it minus one very important detail. The pile of bone and rotting flesh, that was the dragon lord is gone.

"Ha!" The sorcerer in Lizard-form holds the two Soul Gems up in his hands, orienting them so that it is clear where the two fit to the places upon each other. "I knew there had to be something here.

"We will find you all," Jass hisses at the dark necromancy within one of the gems. He hisses with a very uncharacteristically, un-Jass-like vehemence. "We will find you all, and beat the living death out of you."

"Well, lets go." All sunshine and smiles again, the Lizardman hands the gems back to the Gray Knights, one to Echlhin and the other to from whomever the other came from. "Lets find the third."

The horror of this land shows itself only in the slight tautness of skin at the corners of Jass' Lizard-form eyes. Or, for those who know him better, it might also be noticeable in the silence of the normally chattering sorcerer during the relatively short walk from the Mausoleum to the grove.

"Well, so where is this Lich you spoke of?" The sorcerer snaps his fingers and then shapes his hands into a cone. The intensity on his face sharpens as he plays the cone of his hands about the landscape. "Lets have a look at him, shall we?"

"That can't be good," Dwight states noticing the bones are gone.

Despite the new stress of the undead being gone, likely reborn, Dwight finds some comfort that Plyf has found some inner piece.

"That my new friend, be Plyf. A bard that ssshould be reknown for her ssskill with language. The cryssstal tree be hard to dessstroy without the control of a bard word. Plyf vowed to hold it back til we complete goal."

When they reach the clearing he says "Echlhin can you use your senses to see if the gem is around here? I know we destroyed that Draco-lich, and unless these liches are very different from normal liches we should have about a day before it can reform itself. If they can do it faster we are in alot of trouble."

If the group doesn't find the Gem in or around the grove Tratain leads them back to the Dracolichs cave for Echlhim to check there as well. If it is found at neither place Tratain will lead the group towards the Castle like building as it was the only landmark the group has not visited so far.

"What? Gone, you say?" From the depths of the concentration on his Detect Magic spell, Jass the Lizardman ekes out a few words of comment and speculation.

"Have you considered the possibility that the others, or, perhaps, one of the others came to collect their or his or her or whatever's fallen brethren? And you fought this Lich how long ago?"

"Aside from the collection of the body and the Soul Gem itself, that would also tell me that you are very likely being watched. Very very closely watched."

No Bones About DM Dan k
Thursday August 12th, 2010 6:46:02 PM
The ramifications of the Draon lord's missing corpse is quickly discussed. Conjecture on what happened all end with the group being in more danger and trouble than they were about an hour ago. One Lord watches the group, Bas Anut, perhaps he took it. The Dragon lord himself sought out another, so clearly some of the lords do have an alliance of sorts beyond the Dread, perhaps a third member came along. Or most firghtening, perhaps it only took the Dragon lord an hour or less to reform.

Jass uses Detect magic and scans the area, a lingering necromantic film covers everything in a faint glow. more Powerful glows are easily detected on his companions and in the Crystal trees of Koshe Marr. There are no other risidual signs about however, certainly nothing on the power scale of a Soul Gem.
Echlin tries to use his ability to sense a spirit, but feels nothing out of the ordinary.
The Battery is brought forth and several of the Knights examine it. It is unlike anything they have ever seen or heard of before. A unique creation of Teucri magic from skills and knowledge long lost.
The question is asked about disturbing Plyf, she would have of course been present during anything that happened. That, of course, creates another question. Plyf, practically helpless and obviously unaware of her surroundings, is completely unharmed.

The aea is searched, the surroundings of the orchard are searched but there is no Soul Gem. Feeling it must be hidden within the Dragon lords cave, Tratain leads the group back past the Parthanon and towards the hilltop. The great marbled building stands in utter silence and darkness. A think inky viel of balck and gray swirl about the outer most pillars, masking eveything contained within.

The group skirts the foreboding structure without incident. Passing through the dead sparce trees to the west, the body of the hanged man still lies crumpled at the base of the trunk where the Knights last left him. Above, the tattered rope still sways gentlely as if still supporting his weight. Beyond this, the trail leads up alongisde a black a foul smelling creek that spills from a fetid pond above. The great black willows sway and lean towards the party as soon the the rise is crested and the thick wood about thier trunks creaks and snaps several times as they do so. A hum of insects comes to everyones ears and soon clouds of gnats are massing abut the surface and buzzing into ears and eyes.

The Dragon cave lies 60' straight down a vertical cliff of loose earth and rock.

"Nothing here," Jass had announced back at the grove. "Unless these liches have the power and foresight to hide a magic aura." "Plenty of other nasty things, though," he had mused to himself. The sorcerer in Lizardman form had eyed the floating form of the half-elf as she hung in the air, quieting the crystal trees. "That cannot be comfortable."

He had followed these Gray Knights as they wended their way across the bleak land. They seemed to know where they were going.

"Everyone here get down the cliff alright?" Jass asks, without explaining the import behind his question.

The elf looks over the cliff and whistles. Glancing over at Monthor's boots, he notices the similarity and copies the Dwarf's method of getting down to the cave. The Hand wonders for a moment if he should cast any spells but decides to conserve what little resources that he has. He flexes his fists once and they begin to glow a faint blue (Bless). "Let's do it."

I think Daniel may be gone on his trip by now. If not, he can correct this.

From the description, I would suggest this is ...

Climb vs DC20 An uneven surface with some narrow handholds and footholds, such as a typical wall in a dungeon or ruins.

60ft should require, lets call it 3 climb checks if your speed is 30. This is assuming that you drop to the ground for the last 10ft of the climb for no damage.

ooc: Thanks, Al! Hi everyone! Looking forward to being part of the new Obsidian Dragons (at the end of this module.)

"Now isn't that interesting", quips Jass when Tratain mentions no cliffs before. "That can mean a couple of things. Either you arrived by a different way..." the sorcerer looks around pointedly at the relatively small floating island and hill where Jass can see the whole cliffside, "or our new friends got the wrong hill...", the charismatic sorcerer smiles to demonstrate how absurd that possibility is, "or the lichs these guys are facing have some control over the terrain on this island. From the dead land all around, this great evil has been here for a long time. Stories of Koshe-Marr say the masters there can alter the landscape. Why couldn't they do it here?"

At this last, Jass looks very serious; bleak even. Like he has his own dark horrors within the memory of his mind. "And if your dragon cave is changed and your dragon bones are gone, how much do you want to bet the dragon is down there someplace?"

Furball takes a sniff and decides he doesn't like this place. With a titter, the little mink scuttles to his satchel-den between Jass' back and cloak.

Edge of the Cliff - Sub/DMAl
Monday August 16th, 2010 8:59:09 PM

The combined Gray Knights and Crimson Shields survey the situation. Tratain and Mac both look for ways to climb down to the cave mouth. It may have slipped the adherent of Domi that, when the Gray Knights had originally made their approach, they had flown. Upon exit, they had ferried all who no longer possessed the magic of flight.

The cliff face above which the heroes stand is quite large, hundreds of feet wide and at least two hundred feet tall. The large entrance to the cave, fully wide enough to be comfortable to the dragon lich stands roughly midway between the top of the cliff and the clouds the wreath the area below. These clouds obscure completely all vision of what lies below. Nearly solid, almost inviting, they represent a white, fluffy landscape extending in all directions. What are the chances, though, that an attempt to walk upon their surface will result in a long plunge to a quick death?

Dwight scans the cliff for signs of the Dragon Lich, but the cliff face is empty. The sky is empty. There are few places to hide save the cave itself, and there is nothing here now to see.

Mac's examination of the cliff face reveals that the rocky surface seems to provide sufficient hand-holds to present little fear to a climber of his caliber. However, there is a slick black sheen to the stone that most decidedly looks like oil. An attempt to verify this might be in order. But any mistake in that regard could lead to a nasty one way plunge.

There would seem to be few ways down to the cave mouth that do not involve magic. The top edge of the cave mouth appears to be an estimated sixty feet below the cliff's edge, and the floor of the cave mouth is likely another fifty feet below that.

Speculation volleys back and forth between Shield and Knight, but none appear confident enough to act.

The Northwest Hill
Wednesday March 17th, 2010 6:49:02 PM

... The group flies up under the great cloud island and to the northwestern corner. Just before emerging from under the cloud, Vedick activates a wand of Good Hope (7 minutes) affecting the entire group and then casts Death Ward on himself.

Moving carefully the group begins to take in this side of the island, floating upwards along the side. The side of the hill is more in line with a cliff than a hill on the outward facing side. Granite and other hard rock can be seen and the entire section rises nearly 200' and is over 400' wide. Still invisble for about a minute more, the group finds themselves looking into a great cave some 50' wide and high about halfway up. The rock is slick with what appears to be oil shimmering in the reflective light from the clouds below. The wind rustles about you, a bare whisper as if even it is fearful to be near this ominous opeing in the black rock. No sound ventures forth from the hole and it extends well back beyond anyones vision. ...

The Cave
Monday April 5th, 2010 9:41:29 PM

... The group ditches the ring where it can easily be found and makes their way to the cave entrance. Tratian uses 4 charges to heal Echlhin with his wand the Knights make thier way to the top of the cliffs and the hill above. A foul watered pool sits atop of the hill and pours to the west over a 50 cliff. Great black willow trees ring most of the pool, each nearly 8' around and stretching almost 70' high. Great branches hang ominously down to rest in the dark waters. The Knights farey those unable to fly to the top and from here have a good command of the rest of the island. To the south and a bit west, they can see the large palace with the bodies staked across the top and the carrion birds. ...

The sorcerer waits for anyone who wants to hold hands before casting the Dim Door and bringing the group to the entrance of the dragon's lair.

Castle Of the Dead - Sub/DMAl
Tuesday August 17th, 2010 8:57:58 PM

A few of the combined group of Shields and Knights are ready to enter the cave in the side of the cliff. A few think that the main building, the castle crawling with animated dead, would be an objective more worthy of their time. Most of the combined heroes watch each other, waiting for a leader to emerge.

In the end, those who call for the main castle speak with the greater will. The heroes back away from the cliff's edge. The swarm of noxious black insects swarm again about each member of the group, threatening to enter nose or mouth, light on eyes, crawl into ears. They skirt the great marble Parthenon, steeped in silence and a swirling dark that could almost be alive as they pass to the south. Ahead, up a sloping rise lies the castle.

The walls of the castle are dark red with the blood of the bodies that festoon the towers and the ramparts. At the front of the castle, two massive wooden doors -closed now- whisper of access to the inside. But, before the doors, a mass of zombies, ghouls, wights, all manner of undead writhe in an orgy of rending and feasting. Chilling moans, the smack of flesh, and the crack of bone fill the air as the swarm of undead go through the never ending cycle of flesh gorging and re-animation.

It is through this mass of undead that the Knights and Shields must pass if they wish to reach the door.

Unwelcoming Threshold - Sub DM/Al d20+2=11 ;
Wednesday August 18th, 2010 9:01:08 PM

While Belkior goes about casting preparatory spells, Vedik eyes the churning mass of undead. His judgement seems sound. Even a low flight might not clear these undead as they trample upon and climb over the slick gore covered surface of each others' bodies. The dwarf narrows his eyes to see if he can pick out signs of incorporeal undead. He spots none. But, then again, his natural abilities in this regard are somewhat limited.

Jass suggests flight with a Passwall spell to avoid the door entirely. Monthor isn't quite sure, though.

To enter through the front door? Through the seething mass of undead? Or to try to circumvent the unknown confrontation? Either way, time ticks. Useful spells lapse away. And from some quarter, they are surely being watched.

It'll take Jass a minute, but he'll be able to cast Fly on every hero that doesn't have thier own flying apparatus. Syr, Mac, Jass, Belkior, Tratain, Monthor, and Vedik? Dwight has his broom, so the sorcerer thinks that this would be 7 Flying spells; a feat only capable by a sorcerer!

When the group gets to the gates, Jass casts another spell, a Limited Wish that replicates a Passwall spell, enabling the heroes to pass through up to 190 feet of wood and stone to reach into the castle.

Dwight likes this plan having watch the gorging undead several times since their arrival.

"I sssay we go to the top and work our way down. Thisss would prevent the undead from being behind usss," hoping to get Monthor ready to face only one direction.

Dwight then loads his bow and prepares to float up and over the undead. He flies up about 30' feet and then hovers over the undead to test their reaction before the main group begins flying over. Assuming he is safe, he waves the group onward.

Tratain casts Hide from Undead, covering the entire party with a single spell. Jass casts Fly six times in succession. Dwight has his Broom and Syr his Boots. Dwight loads his bow and then heads up over the undead horde. Now that he has a better look, he certainly wishes he didn't. From a distance it appeared to be individual creatures, ghouls, zombies, skeletal beings, all kept in tight proximity to one another through unseen forces and all tearing at each othe only to renew themselves in the gore. Severed body parts still functioning, creatures climbing about upon each other. Now Dwight can see the truth of it. Sinew, tendon, veins and matter he cannot identify string about them, connecing them all and binding them together. Smaller beings in the horde use the bits as spring ropes leaing into the air to land on another, reaching heights of 30'. There is no doubht the spell of hiding is working, for if it were not, the Horde would have pulled Dwight into its depths.

Jass and the rest move over the horde, perhaps a bit higher than Dwight's initial approach and than casts Passwall to open a hole in he upper floor above the front door. Marble seems to melt away, a foot, than two quickly followed by timber and the inner limestone. The gaping hole reveals a massive foyer scattered with body parts, unknown fluids, shattered and pulverized bone and a healthy mix of dirt and minor vegetation. The foyer is 30x50x30 with a pair of 12' wide iron stair cases that run up the far back left and right wall. From here a short landing takes the guest to a thick oaken door to the left and right wings of the upper level.

Enemy:none present (Unless you count the Mass of Undead. Oh, wait ... )

Jass grins at Syr, but takes the warning, and accepts Mac's offer of a carry instead of casting yet another Fly. Add Echlhin and minus Vedik, that is 5 spells cast in the space of a 1/2 minute.

At the castle, Jass concentrates and opens the wall to allow others to come inside. He gives a little courtly nod of his head. "The way is open, which of you mayhem makers wants to go through first? As Syr mentioned, I'm a little shy of leading in since our last battle." The grin is still on his face, but there is a hint of pain and self-lothing behind Jass' bright demeanor.

Dwight makes sure he has cleared the wall with his broom before the spell wears off. Dwight looks up to make sure it is safe, and floats up to have a clear shot above Monthor's head if something appears in front of him.

"That thing outside wasss huge. Not hundredsss or thousandsss, but one interconnected undead thing for lack of a better way to sssay it."

"Echlin, can you sssenssse anything? If not, I move we go up. One of them doorsss must lead to the throne room. Anyone recognize ssstyle of cassstle?"

Sunday August 22nd, 2010 10:42:00 PM
The group enters the main foyer and looks about. The room seems empty and the question is asked if any recognize the architecture and where the throne room might likely be. The building from the outside and from the inside, however, suggests it is not a castle but a mansion. Likely the design and layout is that of a home, albeit a large one. There may not be a throne room, but it there was, it would almost certainly be on the main floor. A level at present that shows only a single option of a set of doors on the far end, straight across from the main doors that lead outside. Echlhin attempts to sence any disembodied spirits or souls and does feel one. About 300' away, below him and to the left.

Several possible choices lie before the group. The two doors on the second floor, one to the left and one to the right, the main floor exit and the spirit that Echlhin senses lying somewhere beyond the solid stone and earth down and to the left.

Once Mac comes into the Passwall and puts Jass down, the sorcerer flicks an imaginary speck of dust from his shirt and grins. "How did you ever cope without me and my magics?" is the rhetoric quip.

He takes a look around, seeing if his limited eyesight can find (and identify) any magical scrying devices, passing off his information to the combined group.

"If the good Echlhin can sense these gems, and the gems are the key to destroying this evil, I say the path to take is pretty clear." Jass points a dramatic hand at the door across the room. "Let's follow our magical bloodhound to the next piece!"

Unsure of his new companions, the monk watches Echlhin closely when Jass compares him to a dog to see his reaction. He moves up near the front but not leading. Those watching closely see the monk mutter a reminder to himself, "It's like a puzzle, let's see how they do things and then try to fit in my piece."

"SSSincsse it'sss only 10' down before the door, perhapsss only one or two of usss ssshould advance until the door is open."

Being on his broom, Dwight volunteers himself, "Anyone with good eyesss and quick handsss that wantsss to check for trapsss with me?"

Dwight floats down the hallway avoiding the oily walls, but examining the wall and floor carefully. Once at the end of the hall he examines the door carefully.

If all seems 'safe', Dwight tests to see if the door is locked.

While he doesn't enjoy the dog comment, he doesn't appear phased by it. Given some of the comments that any Grim might encounter during their duties, one can imagine they trend to have thick skins. In regards to the oily black substance, he defers to his companions.

The black substance gives the party pause and several investigate further, being careful as they do so. Vedik leans in and is able to come to a particularly disgusting conclusion. It smells very much like urine.
Dwight performs a simple flame test and the results are negative, the substance does not alight.
Mac and Monthor along with Echlhin and Jass wait ti see what the others can deduce.
With that deduction being not much, Dwight floats down the corridor to the door and examines it for traps. As he drifts pass 5', his frame shudders. (though barely)

Dwight Will save DC 24 Damage 14 or 7

Upon the door Dwight spies the faint markings of magical runes, a telltale sign of a magical trap

Dwight shudders a bit, but whatever the effects, manages to shrug off most of it. (Save: 32 O-Yeah! Dmg 7)

Examine the runes, he tries to decipher them (spellcraft 8 + 2GH = 10 -- natural 1), but doesn't have a clue. He then describes it to others, hoping they have better luck. (Not sure if message is still active, if not, he'll return and explain what he found.)

Dwight informs the group he spotted a rune on the door, but couldn't identify it. He also mentions something caused him slight pain as he floated down the hall.

OOC: What condition are the doors in? Do they appear sturdy, or could they easily be broken? Where was the rune?

DM Dan K Doors is very sturdy looking with metal reinforcing bands about the top midsection and bottom. Dwight saw portions of runes all ove, under the black urine-like substance

"Unfortunately, I can find the trapsss, but can't disssarm them very well," he informs the others hoping they understand why he didn't attempt to disarm it.

Dwight admits to not being vert good at disarming traps, especially true for magical traps. Syr mentions perhaps the group could summon some creatures to bash in teh door and simply set them off.
Jass rummages about in his pants. If they weren't magical it would be a bit obscene.

The group still standa 10' from the door. A moagical trap possibly crafted by one of the powerful lich lords upon it.

Belkior' detect magic reveals powerful magic everywhere including upon the door, but he is unable to discern the school or much else. The idea of using a conjured creature is again broght up. The trouble is that the trap would remain in effect after the creature set it off. Could the walls be breached allowing access from another direction? Unknown.

Dwight conjures up a memory of the mansion from theo outside and where they were heading. The exterior of the mansion suggests the passage beyond the door easily fits within the actual structure.
Monthor takes Point, Mac directly behind and the rest trail after closely. All are alert and battle ready. As the cooridor is entered each of theheroes feel a pull or weakening, some to a greater extent than ofthers

Monthor moves around the bend and pulls up short. The corridor continue just another 10' and opens into what from here appears to be a great marbled circular room. Standing in the center, pointing a great clawed finger at the dwarf, is a 9 foot tall winged demon. Hard scales can be seen covering its body, its wings spread out to either side blocking all sight beyond it. A glowing and shimmering snake like piece of metal rests easy in one hand.

Jass' mind is assaulted by dark powers and he is able to withstand it after an instant of sweat breaking out on his forehead. "The spell was still there", he mumbles in disgust to himself.

And then the armored dwarf makes contact. Jass can't see anything other than Mac, Monthor, and Tratain disappearing in a teleportation spell, and the sorcerer figures that Monthor found a lich.

Jass casts a quick [i]Haste[i] spell on Syr, Belkior, Echlhin, Vedik, and Dwight and delays his own run to the corner (but not around it and into oncoming magic or missle fire) until the other physical fighters can move out.

Dwight considers his options quickly in his head as he hears the glee in Monthor's voice sudden change to much further away, indicating he teleported.

Dwight activates his ring of Blink, then advances only far enough to see the creature, hoping this is still in the hallway, but following the options available while feeling the common affects of being hasted!

(Depending on who is standing in front of the creature, and how tall the hallway ceiling is depends on where Dwight stands. He wants to have a shot at the creature and can probably shoot past Monthor, but not Mac; which may require moving into the room then)

Monthor takes Mac and teleports in front of the creature. A look of confusion swipes across its face at the move from the warrior
Mac attacks, his weapon connecting twice and great gouts of blcak ichor spray the area
Jass casts Haste, affecting himself, Syr, Belkior, Echlhin, Vedik, and Dwight. With Mac and Monthor sounding engaged, he moves to the corner.
Dwight moves up around the corner after activating his Ring of Blinking, and can just catch sight of the creature past Mac. It appears to be a horned Devil. The creature moves however and Dwight loses sight of it. [activating the ring and moving is all actions in a round. Also note that the broom's speed of 40 is unaffected by the Haste spell]
Belkior moves up to see around the bend.
Tratain moves down th e hall around the bend and then into position to strike at the devil. Pulling his warhammer he prepares to strike next round. [Move to the Devil was 60' and took full round.]
Syr moves into the room and circles around.

The Devil strikes with the glowing chain. Swinging once at Monthor and twice at Mac. The strike goes high over the dwarf, but then comes back in on Mac, inflicting terrible wounds.
[Hit Touch AC 25 and 20 Dmg 41 and 49]

As Tratain moves into the room the devil strikes at him. [Hit Touch AC 27 Dmg 43]

Syr circles and the devil strikes [Hit Touch AC 21 Dmg 47]

Unsure of what is happening in the battle as the demon seems to have moved out of visual range, Dwight advances, arrows readied.

As Dwight enters the room, he floats up and along the opposite side of the wall the demon moved.

OOC: The map appeared the same as the original, but since the demon moved, I'm guessing Dwight doesn't have a clear shot to fire his arrows. If Dwight had a shot, he would rather fire (a full rounds worth) than enter the room.

Still with movement (hasted), I think Dwight can get one shot off.

Syr passes through the symbol area and winces in pain at the effect (Will save 30). Watching the others teleport away in front of him, the elf smiles, "Looks like I'm the new point." He moves quickly through the now empty corridor to catch up to them, all the while hoping he doesn't set off any new traps.

Seeing that the others are handling the devil, he continues on circling around the devil and looking for an exit to the room to watch over. (How does D10 sound for a location?) Once there, he assesses the situation and if possible heals himself.

Jass takes a peek and notes that Monthor, Tratain, Mac, and Syr have the devil pretty well in hand, (and axe, and mace, and sword), so there is little incentive to join the battle.

Syr's concern, however, makes the sorcerer think. "Hey Echlhin, Belkior, Dwight, and Vedik. If the five of us are the main magical arm of the two groups, I think we need to set up how we are going to find and defeat the various magical stuff that will be in this palace of death."

Jass lets that sink in as Monthor sinks his axe into the devil. "Like, are we going in the right direction? And do you have any detection spells for magic, locate the path, or any other non-combat useful stuff?"

"I've got a Darvision and See Invisible wand, and a couple of Prying Eyes scrolls, and some spells to defeat detection. But very little in the way of dectecting something in the first place."

OOC way cool Map

Monthor steps into the devil and attacks, but each swing is just a bit slower than the Devil and he misses each one.
Mac finds the Devil more prepared as well, and each of his swings fails to find it's mark.
Syr's fists and feet flash nearly faster than the eye can follow and one strike finds' its way through the devils defences.
Vedik floats into the room and Casts Grease at the feet of the devil

Dwight moves in and fires a single arrow, but the shot is errant and goes high and wide right.

Jass begins a discussion on tactics. The lack of an apparent exit is brought up by Syr. Is this fight necessary. Wit the group having come through a wall it seems unlikely the Lich's could have prepared a trap, but it certainly seems as though they have.

The creatures eyes remain narrow and focused on his targets, Mac and Monthor. The chain slashes once at the Dwarf and twice at Mac. This time the creatures tail lashes at Syr and his teeth come in Tratain's direction.
The Grease spell seems to be having little affect on the Guardian Devil

The Chain lashes into Monthor [Hit Touch AC 29 Dmg 50 Fort Save DC 27 or be stunned]
The Chain slashes at Mac connceting once [Hit Touch AC 15 and 21 Dmg 50 Fort Save DC 27 or be stunned]
The Tail Lashes at Syr, missing horribly. [Hit AC 13]
The Devil then tries to bite Tratian's head off but he is far too quick [Hit AC 29]

Jass also notes the battle is going on longer than anticipated. The sorcerer readies himself to act pending the observations of Echlhin (and his True Seeing).

Tratain take 12 (1st round) and 25 (second round)
I also adjusted AC vs Evil to reflect Shield Other and the expiry of Protection from Evil

Fort role = 31 ( I counted a +2 for dwarven resistence to spell like effects. Make it 29 if this isn't the case)

--------------------------------------
A suddenly larger Monthor quickly reflects on his missed attacks.
{ Well, that be just NOT acceptable!}
And he tries again. This time, without the power attack (but still two handed)

Dwight ignores the current conversation as the heat of battle is his focus, even though he isn't a front line fighter.

Pulling his bow back in quick successions, he fires into the demons upper torso.

OOC: Adding in Sneak Attack damage as I believe Dwight is flanking with somebody, but can't see map to confirm

Att #1 ice arrow
Hit: 34
dmg: 13 + 11(holy) + 4(ice) + 3(sneak) = 31

att #5
Hit: 35
dmg: 9 + 3(holy) + 6(ice) + 1(sneak) = 19

OOC: total with 3 hits, full damage: 76

While Dwight isn't surprised the demon is putting up a bigger fight than expected, he is leery nothing else has occurred, explaining his lack of focus on two shots.

Syr misses with every swing
Mac scores a pair of devastating hits, spraying the area with black gore and causing the devil to stagger back on its heels.
Echlhin casts True Seeing and indeed the devil is quite real. What he also sees is the outline of a door in the far white plaster wall.
Jass redies with a dispel, but the devil is no illusion
Vedick draws a wand and casts Enlarge on Mothor
Monthor strikes once, but that is all that is needed and the devil collapses to its left with a last otherworldly cry.

The walls are faded and the plaster is peeling in many places. A pair of small bronze angels, now defaced and desecrated, flank the door in small windowlett alcoves.

Jass is happy to see that he did not use a powerful spell against an enemy nearly dead, and focuses instead on the information Echlhin provides.

"A hidden door, eh? A handy Knock spell by one of you heroes can surely open that without a problem now."

And since the sorcerer doesn't have a Knock spell, he stands and waits for someone else to take care of the door. :-)

Watching as every swing misses it's target, he shakes his head after the devil falls next him splattering black blood on his tunic. He absentmindedly reaches down and wipes it. "Sorry guys, I doubt I'll be much use here. " Looking at Monthor, he comments on strategy, "I can move in fairly fast and occupy a single opponent until the cavalry arrives?"

The elf moves to the door and searches for a means to open it (Spot natural 1). Shaking his head he looks at the others.

(OOC: Wow, this is new. Looks like Syr might be just a diversion in combat, when only a natural 20 hits, he will be pretty ineffective. On the positive side, he does get 6 tries at it :)

He asks Dwight to examine the door to see if its trapped, not that anyone can do anything about it. Its just good to know if it is before he nods to Monthor to open it.

Vedik checks the creature and discovers a pair of magical rings,a belt, a set of Bracers and the spiked chain.
Jass offers the plan of Dimension Door with several members to ther other side, Mac being one of those members likes the idea.
Speaking of the door, Dwight moves to investigate. He discovers the plate, partially revealed in the chipped plasterwork, that operates the hidden door. He finds no traps that he can detect. Sounds do reach his ear from the other side. A song perhaps. It reminds him of the saddest sounds he has ever heard. In some ancient and forgotten tongue.

Dwight hp 140/160, ac 33(touch 25, 34 hasted))
Sunday September 12th, 2010 10:11:17 PM
Dwight reaches into one of his sacks and rips a bit of worn cloth from a ruined outfit. He bundles a few small pieces into one ear.

Looking back at the group, he makes sure they understand he heard singing, and that can't be a good thing in this place. "Bard at the best, or some undead creature that puts the living in a trance, particularly males," Dwight adds as he re-lives a brief moment of history back in the Crescent Valley.

Waiting of the others to speak and prepare, Dwight clogs the other ear, preparing to open the door (flip the switch). Dwight doesn't intend to be the first to enter, but wants the leader to have his full movement.

If everyone is ready, Dwight opens the door as the creature on the other side obviously knows we are here. (Giant demon falling to the ground, shook the whole mansion.)

Vedik AC 26 (15 touch) HP 177/191 Character Sheet Spells
Monday September 13th, 2010 8:33:36 AM
Vedik takes the items and hands them to Tratain for the time being.

"I don't know much about magic songs, but it seems we're about ta get a lesson."

He moves through the door with the party.

Mac tucks the unused sack away in his pack and forms up the front line with Monthor and Tratain.

Syr Ac 38/37 HP 216
Monday September 13th, 2010 6:29:22 PM
Syr holds out a dagger, "Just a thought but can anyone cast silence on this dagger? I'll just jog up and we can neutralize the song that Dwight heard." He looks over to the druid and priest in askance.

Otherwise, Syr assumes his place in line behind the big (figuratively and literally) three.

Monday September 13th, 2010 9:20:11 PM
Dwight takes one last look around, hoping his make-shift plugs are enough; still it's eerie to loose your hearing, even voluntarily.

As the group advances, Dwight takes one last look around the room (spot: 20), picks up a piece of debris and places it in the doorway, preventing it from closing all the way, and then follows the group; bow in hand.

Belkior - HP 137/146 - AC 25 (27 vs. Evil) - Stoneskin, Magic Vestment, Magic Circle vs. Evil

Tratain puts all the gear from the Devil in his portable hole.

Before Belkior casts the silence spell Tratain says "Stand back a little ways Syr with everyone else. If whatever is on the other side of the door seems hostile come in with the Silence spell. I want a chance to confront whatever is in there before we attack it. I know the odds of finding anything non-hostile in here are very slim, but I want to see what is there before we do anything."

Tratain then Listens at the door (Listen 22) and then motions for Dwight to Open the Door and he takes a look inside to see what is on the other side of the door. If it is anything hostile he will charge it and attack. (Hit AC 35 for 11 Physical 5 Holy Damage)
(Tratain also has Permanent Tongues if it helps to understand what is being said on the other side of the door.)

The Dark Chapel Round 1 Dan k
Monday September 13th, 2010 10:48:15 PM
Belkior casts Silence on a dagger held by Syr
The group forms in front of the door and Dwight pushes the small panel casuing the door to open

The group looks into a long chapel of decay and rot. At the head of the room, before a groutesque altar of bodies stands a skeletal figure. Deep crimson orbs burn where its eyes once looked upon the world and blackened skin curls into an evil smile upon its dead face. Clad in full armor with a great shield floating at his side and a great sword gripped in both hands.

To the right stands a powerful looking minotaur, a massive bastard sword in both hands. It's fur mottled and its skin palor. With a great snort it bellows and sends a kick at the long bench in front of it. The wood explodes into countless pieces and the creature takes a readied defensive stance, his form wavering and flowing abot him, making his body harder to distinguish.

Further back and to the left is an elf, dressed in fine silks and almost casually holding a pairof glowing scimitars, similar to the glow on the chain the devil wielded. He makes a mock bow and states "welcome. The master has been expecting you." His form then begins to blink

Those who can see invisible Highlight to display spoiler: { Two other humans stand casually to the sides of the room, one on the left the other on the right 30' into the room. They carry no weapons and wear no apparant armor. Each has deathly white skin and lean against the wall causually}

Tuesday September 14th, 2010 6:11:07 PM
Following the mages' request, Syr moves a bit away from the spell casters' to allow their spell usage but still able to look into the room. Unable to hear Echlin's warning about the invisible figures, Syr quickly studies the enemy trying to assess who might be a spell caster. Mentally, he shrugs as none seem present. His feet begin to move faster and the monk smiles to himself at their lack of sound as he moves toward the most obvious threat. With a single leap he aims a flying kick at the minotaur's head. (Natural 20 confirm AC 43, damage 37+3shock).

(OOC: Someone had to set off the traps, right? Feel free to use area effect spells as Syr can probably emerge unscathed. I should be able to post tonight but may find some difficulty over the next two days, Just not sure what internet access I'll have in Louisana)

Dwight isn't moving or waiting any longer, he stretches back his bow and unleashes as many arrows as possible at the minotaur that can now see as he floats high enough over Tratain's shoulder.

Dwight shifts targets to the elf and strikes 3 times, obviuosly wounding him badly
Belkior's Holy Smite has little visible effect
Echlhin notes both of the humans that are invisible and on the groups side of the Wall of Force

The elf, now seperated from the party by the Wall of Force moves back to stand by the armored figure and ceases Blinking.
The being holding the Great sword touches him and all the wounds upon him vanish.
Suddenly appearing on either side of Mac are the two humans Echlhin mentioned earlier. Niether connect with an open palmed attack against Mac and in a blink of an eye they each twist and bound away.

Dwight shoots 4 arrows at the woman, The woman twists in place her shoulders dropping suddenly and one hand streaking out even faster than the incoming projectiles. She knocks two from the air as the other two strike

Mac spins and close on the woman as well striking twice.

Vedik moves into the room and casts Waves of Exhaustion, catching the woman near Mac.

Jass pulls out a wand and touches Monthor gifting the mighty warrior with see invisibility.

Monthor goes after the man and strikes once. His axe cuts deep, but no blood comes from the garish wound. As the axe clears his body both he and the woman become a smokey vapor.

Belkior moves next to Jass.

The elf moves up to the Wall of Force and taps it with a scimitar, as if testing its strength. He then settles into a fighting stance weapons at the ready

His armored companion smirks as the two humans become a smokey vapor and casts a spell. A wall of whirling blades springs into existence just between the elf and the Wall of Force.

The vaporous clouds flow through cracks in the floor

Jass ducks into the room after Monthor, confident that the dwarf will take care of any physical threat to his tender lizardfolk skin. Spotting the Blade Barrier and Wall of Force it looks like a standoff: all the bad guys are on the wrong side, and the good guys can't get there.

"Looks like a job for me!", he says cheerfully, and the thin human casts his power against the barriers to take them down. He targets the stone wall of the chamber with an Area Greater Dispel Magic.

Syr Ac 41/40 HP 216 d20+14=32 ;
Thursday September 23rd, 2010 9:39:51 PM
Syr frowns as the elf betrays no reaction to his posturing. Realizing that the Wall of force is only 10' high, the monk jumps to the top to clamber over. (Jump 32) He clears the wall with ease barely touching the top.

(OOC: I didn't realize that Imitidate required sound? Does it say that in the skills description of demoralize?)

It does not say sound is required but it does say you have to threaten them in melee combat . My interpretation of that is as a threatened square

Syr pounds on the wall then says something, he is silenced though and so the elf only smiles back at him. Syr then nimbly jumps and pulls himself over the wall.
Jass takes Monthor and Mac to the other side
Belkior moves up to heal one of the members hit by the black flames.
Monthor attacks the armored figure. His axe flashes but only connects 1 time and much of the impact of Monthors weapon seems to have been deflected.
Dwight moves closer, hovering just above the wall on the party's side
Mac strikes the lich twice, but he too finds the force behind his weapon lessened as he connects
Vedick flies over the wall and casts Resiliant Sphere at the elf, but the elf spins away from the trap
Tratain heals himself of the damage that penetrated his fire resistance
[Mac Monthor and Tratain all took 13 points of damage as part of the attack from Flame Strike is unholy fire and by passes fire protection]

The armored lich screams an unholy yell that seems to rip at the very souls of those about him. Evil, roils from his elongated a dn cracking jaw like a physical plague that swirls about.
Evil, as palpable as ever imagined by any of the heroes flows about them
Monthor is Dazed unable to act next round and is Weakened of 6 strength points
Mac is Paralyzed for 5 minutes and is Weakened of 9 strength points
Syr is Paralyzed for 7 minutes and is Weakened of 9 strength points
Jass is Paralyzed for 7 minutes and is Weakened of 7 strength points
Vedick is Paralyzed for 6 minutes and is Weakened of 11 strength points
Tratain is Dazed unable to act next round and is Weakened of 8 strength points
Dwight is Paralyzed for 7 minutes and is Weakened of 2 strength points

The Elf then moves in on Monthor, his brilliant energy weapons slippping past the dwarf's hard armor as if it wasn't there. [Hit Touch AC 23 nat 1 / 42 crit 38 confirm / 25 / 42 crit 41 confirm / 27 Dmg 28 and 24....Monthor takes 26 total Shield Other passes 26 to Tratain]

Also, would the Silence spell that someone had cast protect someone? I'm guessing not, but I've got little else to do this round. :-(

Yes Silence would stop it thank you for pointing it out. Spell craft 19 does not identify the spell

Jass is all ready to get blasted by the lich, but the sudden cessation of all sound saves him. Thank the Powers! he mouths, sweating from what could have happened!

The sorcerer best considers how to disrupt the defenses of the Elf and Dread Lich, he rejects spell after spell. I'm a talker, not a fighter! the thin human laments. But not one to let moss grow over his feet, the smiling sorcerer steps away from Syr and the protection of the Silence spell.

And a ray of green light strikes the Elf.

Dwight unsure of what was yelled, this cloth was great idea , he thinks as his floats over the wall (C17) of force and launches a few shots at the Elf, hoping to fall him so that the others can rush the Lich.

Jass clamors up on top of the shrine and turns towardes the Elf. A green beam lances out from his hand, but misses the elf.

Dwight lays into the elf with arrow fire, striking three times

Mac moves on the liche, but fails to connect with the dread lord

Monthor shakes the Blasephemy spell from his head

Syr moves in on the elf, but just as he strikes, the elf vanishes only to reappear again immediately.

Belkior, Echilhin and Vedick move up

Tratain, too, shakes off the last of the Blasphemy

The spell of Silence encompasses the entire half of the room beyond the wall of Force up to the Shrine. the elf casts a worried look at the Dread lord. the Armor clad lich however merely clenches his great sword all the tighter and moves in and around Monthor before taking a great swing. The sword connects hard, spraying blood from the dwarf. [Hit AC 44 Dmg 12 Unholy 4 Acid 1 Total 17]
A wound appears on Tratain as well Damage 17

With most of the heroes still under the effects of his Haste spell, Jass finds himself at a bit of a disadvantage. His best spells are ones that affect the mind, but undead don't have minds to affect!!!

Backing up some more to stay away from the Silence spell, Jass again targets the Elf, doing a better job of timing the frustrating Blinking to pierce the Elf with a green ray!

Dwight notices the look of concern on the elf's face as he reloads his bow, eager that this area may just yet be returned to its previous glory and these creatures are permanently dead.

Flanked, the elf is pointed at with the tip of the first arrow, and 3 others follow in quick succession.

Pressing the attack on the elf, the monk slides forward 5' (G19). Before striking, he looks up to confirm the lich is still within the silence spell and then sends a series of kicks at the double bladed elf. While many of the blows almost land, the elf blinks away at just the right time. (geez, 5 consecutive rolls below 50%). Syr growls in frustration only to have no sound heard.

Vedick stands readied, to attempt to counter any spell the Dread lord may attempt.

Jass moves further out of the Silence Spell and casts another Disintegrate spell at the elf. The beam strikes but he elf does not fall to dust.

Dwight sends another barrage of arrows, three out of four strike and the elf falls dead.

Syr and Mac no longer have a target.

Monthor attacks the Dread lord, hitting him once.

Bekior moves up to the Wall of Force which prevents him from casting any spell through it to Monthor. He needs to find a way over the 10' highinvisible barrier

Tratain is engulfed in the Silence spell from Syr and so he drifts back and Fires aSearing Light Spell. It seems t have no effect at all upon the dread lord.

The elf lies still upon the floor. The dread lord slides further south and launches another set of attacks against Monthor. The Dread lord's great sword drives into Monthor [Hit AC 36 -miss / 46 hit / 34 hit / 40 crit 37 Dmg 24+8 unholy+1 Acid / 22+8 unholy+1 Acid / 42+5 unholy+4 Acid Total 109 Monthor takes 55 and Tratin takes 54]

Jass feels in his temporary lizard skin that this particular battle is in its endgame. "The lich is Piggie Paste for sure", he says to himself.

Conserving his magical energies, the sorcerer backs up to the edge of the alter/platfom and taps himself with a See Invisible wand, looking around to see if any beings are arriving to help.

Dwight floats a bit more to stay within death range. (move to D18 last round, and to E19 this round).

OOC: I am unsure of whether I can staple for each arrow, or if I can only fire one when attempting to staple. I'll roll all, use what is appropriate. (but let me know for next time please).

Unable to cause major harm to the lich, Dwight decides to be a nuisance and attempts to staple the Lich to the wall (thus making him partially prone or waste an action)

Sharpshooters may attempt a ranged grapple attack by pinning the target's garments to a nearby structure with an arrow or bolt. Against targets up to 30 feet away, a staple shot suffers a --4 penalty to the attack roll and the target must be in a square adjacent to a structure no less than one size category smaller than it. A successful staple shot does not cause the target to suffer any penalties, but it cannot move away unless it uses a standard action to pull free (Strength or Escape Artist check vs. a DC equal to the damage the bolt or arrow would have inflicted). If the target is stapled by more than one arrow or bolt, the DC to pull free is the total of all the damage that would have been inflicted by all projectiles -- or each projectile must be broken. Each time the Staple Trick is taken beyond the first, a +1 bonus on staple attack rolls and an extra 5 feet of range is gained. -- Dwight has a +0 to staple

With the Lich keeping the big guys in play and fighting defensively, Jass gets concerned. "Sure and the git will be able to wear us out or get back up eventually which wouldn't do us good, at all, at all", he mimics the brougue from a town he passed through at one time or another.

Watching the various defensive spells in action about the lich, Jass smiles a reptilian grin; he should be able to unravel the magical defenses and give the dour minotaur and dumb dwarf a boost in tearing the lich to shreds. He shouts his knowledge to the others.

"Nice one Vedik!" he calls in admiration of the Grease spell, "and how about this one?"

And Jass sends a targeted Greater Dispel Magic againt the undead lich.

Dwight awaits Echlins response, which he manages to hear through his cloth-embedded ears (listen: 35).

Finally having an answer, Dwight attempts to disarm the Lich (assuming the pinned Lich still holds his sword)

OOC: Dwight gains +2 to his attack as he attempts to disarm. I don't think he gets any minuses for this, though the Lich using a two handed weapon does.

Att #1: 39 + 2(disarm) = 41
Att #2: 27 + 2(disarm) = 29
--miss -- no staple
Att #3: 31 + 2(disarm) = 33
--miss -- no staple
Att #4: 48 + 2(disarm) = 50
--if already disarmed -- staple DC 22 (11 + 9(holy) + 2(ice))
Att #5: 40 + 2(disarm) = 42
--if already disarmed -- staple DC 24 (14 + 5(holy) + 3(ice))

If the Lich is already disarmed, his attacks become staple shots (DC included) hoping to prevent the Lich from moving to get his weapon.

Disarm Trick: Sharpshooters may make disarm attacks against weapons up to 30 feet away. These resolve exactly like melee disarm attacks, but the shooter does not drop his weapon on a failed attempt. Each time the Disarm Trick is taken beyond the first, a +1 bonus on disarm opposed rolls and an extra 5 feet of range is gained. -- Dwight has +2 to disarm.

"There is a soul in his greatsword and it is transferring energy to him!" Echlhin announces to those that can hear him, "Disarm him if you can!" Though anyone within 20' of Syr cannot hear the cry.
Vedick casts Greas upon the Dread lords weapon, but the Dread lord is agile enough to move the weapon before the spell solidifies upon it.
Jass Casts Greater Dispel Magic at the heavily defended Dread lord to no apparent effect, but then again, there were no obvious defensive spells up in the first place.
Mac strikes another pair of times
Dwight strikes the great sword wit an arrow and it fllas from the Dread lords hand shortly followed by yh Dread lord himslef as the being in the armor crumbles to dust

The sword lies on the floor in a pile of dust and armor. Silence still surrounds the area, but the Dread lord appears to have been destroyed

Syr blinks in surprise at the sudden end to combat. Seeing no immediate threat, he gives it a quick toss over the wall of force. Smiling in satisfaction he watches as it spins away from the others. Wiping his hands, he turns back to the others, "I ain't pickin' up that sword."

He looks to the floating form of Dwight, "Nice shooting, Arch." The ever practical elf asks the others, "Is that the extent of it, or is there something else we need to be concerned about with the Lords?"

Dwight is extremely happy one of his shots landed well, forcing the sword to drop. "Kick it away from the dust," he shouts though none close can actually hear him." Despite their lack of response to him, Dwight does not feel compelled to do it himself and wonders what Syr just said.

He floats towards Vedik, examining the Shrine -- Spot 28 -- knowledge (religion/untrained)19.

"If the sword is the power, I can temporarily suppress it", states Jass, and casts another Greater Dispel Magic, this time targeting the sword. He will then look carefully to see if his magic was effective.

"Quickly now, while the magic is held at bay, secure it!" urges the smug sorcerer.

The Dark Chapel Round 10 Dan k
Tuesday October 12th, 2010 10:52:15 PM
Syr sends the silent dagger up and over the wall of Force, the group on one side can now speak again. Concern is given, righfully so, over the vile unholy weapon that the dread lord was wielding. Jass casts a Greater Dispel Magic at the weapon. That should surpress its qualities for a few rounds.

Tratain pulls out a wand of healing, but with the Dagger of Silence now laing near him he is forced to move before he can activeate it. [Note you have not activated the wand]

Belkior spends a few moments in thought about whom this Dread lord might have been. At the moment the possibilities are very broad. Just the fact that it was a Dread lord makes him very old [Know History if you have ranks] It will take more than a few seconds of pondering to reach any realistic answers.
Dwight suggests kicking the sword away while he moves twards Vedick and takes a closer look at the shrine. It is as one might expect. An unholy sanctuary to death and decay with representation from all of the gods of Testing
Echilhin continues concentrating. He can still sense the soul within the Greatsword as well as another hundreds of feet away below him and to his right

With a metallic bang of seveal heavy footflls , that Belkir and Ecilhin cannot hear,a creature strides to the door. Further back, the sharp eyed can spy a creature in the torn robes of anarch mage of the Star Mages guild. a septer of gold encrusted with emeralds and rubies in one hand and a platinum diamond studded crown upon his head. The fires of damnation burn where its eyes used to look upon the world. It stands wordlessly but obviously ready for battle.

Syr looks over as the new opponents join them. "Geez, how about a break." With an exaggerated sigh he comments, "Well back over the wall." He says nonchalantly, knowing such a jump is well within his skills. After taking a couple strides, he plants a foot for takeoff only to find his knee give out. The monk's body impacts the wall with a now silent thud (Natural 1, Location I18) His mouth opens as the air escapes and he drops to the ground. Other than a slow red tinge creeping into his cheeks, their is no other reaction. He looks through the wall of force intently, sizing up this new foe by their actions.

Dwight is unhappy with himself for letting his guard down so soon after combat and wasn't watching the rear as is typically. His discontent lasts only a fraction of a second before he floats back up and pulls his bow as far back as possible taking careful aim for such a long shot.

Jass dramatically rolls his eyes as every one of the melee warriors focus' on something to beat on. "And no one to pick up the temporarily safe sword", says he. "Alas that it falls to me to do physical work, but needs must when the Powers drive."

The sorcerer, aided by his still effective Haste spell easily skips over to the dead lich's sword and picks it up, gently shoving it into one of his Pants O Plenty pockets for easy retrieval.

Furball pokes his head out from behind Jass' cloak, chitters excitedly, and then hides once more.

(Argh, keep forgetting about limitations! :-)

Jass looks nonplussed at not being able to completely take care of the greatsword when the Black Tentacles writhe up all around. The sorcerer flings an arm out to touch Monthor (moved to pick up the sword last round) and shouts out, "Belkior! Touch Monthor! we're getting out of this spell, hold on!" and casts Dim Door, moving himself and Monthor and Belkior to flank the doorway.

Furball squeeks protest and the sword flops around half-in half-out of the magical pants pocket.

Jass, momentarily out of immediate danger and having Monthor and Mac to give (and take) the beatings of the golems, looks at the ungainly sword sticking out of his pants. "Gotta do something about that", he quips. Judging the sword can't weigh more than 20 pounds, the sorcerer casts a small magic, bringing into existance an Unseen Servant. "Carefully take this sword out of my pocket. Hold it. Follow me."

Jass smirks, confident that he can keep the 'servant' lugging around the sword for as long as he needs to in order to collect the other soul gems and finally kill off these liches!

Vedick quicken Dimensional Doors to where the mage was. Moving lower, he than creates a Resiliant Sphere around himself and the returning mage
Tratain casts heal on himself
Jass casts Unseen Servant and the Greatsword slides from his pants and floats in the air by the smirking sorceror
Mac steps in to take on the golem as well, striking twice
Syr picks up the Silent Dagger and moves forward. The sounds of grunts, and the ring of adamantine vainshes instantly
Monthor connects once.
Dwight moves forward and puts an arrow at the golem, but it richochets off the adamantine metal that comprises the construct.
Belkior activates his staff and heals Monthor

A second animated suit of adamantine comes in around the corner. One blade flashes at Monthor. [Hit AC 48 Dmg 19 Monthor takes 10 Tratain dmg 9] Monthor can make an AOO

The other construct mindlessly continues its own onslaught. The adamantine weapons flash as fast as the eye can follow. [Hit AC 43/49/31/26/33/41/42 Dmg 19/18/23/15/19 Monthor takes 47 Tratain takes 47

The wizard does not return

Vedik maintains his readied action, thinking of the options. It is possible the mage had a plane shift spell prepared, although that is a highly specific spell usually only memorized when expecting planar travel. It is also possible that the mage was a decoy, and the real Dreadlord is in the form of the golem. He shakes his head, remaining focused on the hopefully returning mage.

Mac continues to unleash on the construct, raining in heavy blows upon the armor
Jass takes a moments pause and studies the creation more closely. Several pieces fall into place for the sorceror. The constructs seem to absorb any damage that was directed at the wizard, they are self repairing and highly specialized in construction. One such construct fits most of what he has observed, Shield Guardians. Not true golems they are suceptable to spells, they also are not subject to Golembane scarabs, such as Monthor wears. They contiually repair themselves and are resistant to any form of physical damage. They can also be constructed wit items of magic infused into thier being, which explains the deadly accuracy of the constructs weapons.
Vedick remains alert for the wizards return from the Maze
Dwight puts another arrow insto the construct, though the archer can tell he is hardly causing any damage. He calls out to Echlhin to see if the Grim has spotted anything, but the Gargul chosen Grim is oddly quiet.
Monthor then plants four tunderous hts with his axe, staggering the creature and sending bits of metal flying.

The construct collapses into a pile of scrap

Still, the wizard does not return to the point where the maze trapped him

Jass calls out his information about the Shield Guardians to the Crimson Shields and Gray Knights. He's confident that the bashers and healers can take care of the one remaining construct without much trouble. "Besides, there isn't a clear line for me to line up a spell and get involved anyways."

This leaves the sorcerer with too much time, and thoughts begin percolating around his active brain. "You know", he calls out to Dwight and the others, "A smart lich should be able to get out of a Maze spell pretty easily. And if he was really smart, he wouldn't just reason his way out, but Plane Shift to another place. And if he did that, it would make sense for him to have his guardians bottle us up while he gets all the other liches together and smack us one since the Gray Knights have killed four of thier number already."

"I think it's really likely that we're going to soon be visited by a whole mess of bad things."

Dwight stares at Echlin, wondering if he didn't hear or is otherwise engaged.

Jass, being quite a distance off, is barely heard by Dwight, had there been other noise, he would not have heard. "Not likely, Jassssssss, though alwaysss possssssible. They are all Dread, but they don't nescsesssssarily want to work together. More than likely this dread'sss alliance now isss being carried there, " Dwight points to the sword Echlin had indicated held the gem.

Wondering what will happen next, Dwight remains readied with his bow -- readied action hit AC 38 (dmg: 14 + 8(holy) + 2(ice) = 24). He fires at the appearance of anything that isn't currently present.

"So, if there are ssseven gemsss only two remain missssssing?" He states wondering if he has done the math correctly.

Out of combat rounds but keep actions realtively brief

Th constructs are destroyed, Belkior waits ready to cast a spell of healing from his staff and Jass speaks of ways the wizard may not be returnig. Indeed he may be gathering forces as th Knights and Shields speak.

Echlhin stands, seemingly transfixed, not hearing or a least not responding to any quereies directed at him. Suddenly his body contorts and his face takes on a pained expression and in moments his knees buckle and he hits the floor hard. Stubbornly he forces himself to a kneeling position, "I am of Gargul. A Grim walker of shadow." he seems to force each word. His heads snaps upwards to theceiling as if struck by a powerful unseen blow. There is no blood or obvious trauma. Through gritted teeth of pain he speaks again, his voice coarse and alien, "You are mine former Walker of dead."
Echlhin grabs the sides of his head repeating in his own voice, "No. I am of Gargul. I am a GreyKnight and I will not submit." Blood begins to trickle from hs eyes, ears, nose and mouth. Echlhin spits a mouthful of the crimson fluid to the floor, "Knights." he wheezes. "A powerful force of the spirit world...Coming here...I can hold him for a time...Cannot let him step to our lands...beyond anything I have...." His voice trails off as he turns all of his attention to he unseen combat raging within his very being. He forces one last thougtht aloud, "Knights, Secret passage beneath the main hall, 2 powers gather."

Listen: 27 (to Echlhin

Dwight stares at Echlhin, unsure if he has heard correctly. It quickly dawns on him that most of the group did not hear Echlhin's cry or statement. He lowers his bow, a bit reluctantly and begins waving towards those silenced, pointing at Echlhin.

If they are 'un-silenced', Dwight repeats what Echlhin said.

Mac peers through wide shut eyes to see golem rubble on the floor. After a few moments he points towards Vedik, looking for confirmation that they are moving forward in support. He recognises the healing power and gives a thankful nod and smile in the Paragon's direction.

Jass motions for Syr to put his Silenced dagger away so they can speak together, and then Echlhin gets zapped by a major possession. The confident sorcerer is floored by this display of the Grim's stubbornness and the power capable of these DREAD lich beings.

"Bad Things...", he repeats, and shakes his head.

"If Echlhin is sticking his thumb in the dam to keep us all getting killed to no purpose, you think we should go find this secret passage real quick?"

Jass is ready to go, and go fast.

Vedik dismisses the sphere, and moves back with the party.

"I'd be pretty unusual for a wizard to keep a plane shift spell memorized without a real need for it. It's possible he had an item though."

When Echlhin speaks, he looks with concern to his ally. Hearing the alien voice, he immediately casts Protection from Evil on Echlhin, which should help him keep the possessing spirit from fully taking over.

"You are right Jass, we need to find the door quickly."

Syr obliges and places the dagger well away from the others before rejoining the group. After hearing Echlhin's repeated words, "Sounds like a couple are teaming up against us. I'm with Jass, let's book it down to this passage while some of our magic isn't expired." The elf slowly sinks to the ground so he can move faster. Assuming they move quickly he picks up the dagger once again along the way.

OOC: Yup, Echlhin is on a walkabout. Gotta love how silence can negate SO many other spells.

Tratain begins healing himself with his wand until Echlhin collapses.

He listens to what he has to say and then replies to the others "It does sound like two of the others are going to join up together. This terrible being approaching is probably the Dread Himself. He need to hurry and take out the remaining Dread Lords so we can be ready for him."

He continues "Before we run off we need to locate this clerics Soul Gem. Put all of his other gear in my portable hole. Lets hurry and collect his things, heal up and head down to that main room and find that passage."

Tratain heals himself with his wand a few more times while the group searches and Travels. He doesn't let the group leave until the soul gem is found. (OOC: How many more Rounds of healing can I have?)

Leaving The Dark Chapel
Wednesday October 27th, 2010 9:53:55 PM
Echlhin continues his unseen battle with Vedick casting a Protection from Evil Spell. Syr places the dagger out of the way so the group can talk quickly. It is decided to follow the Grim's advice. The room is searched and within a concealed compartment in the shrine, a fist sized oddly cut gem is found very much resembling the others, another piece of the greater gem as a whole if it were to be linked to the others. With the gem is a small lockbox of deep black metal with runes of Necromancy burned into its otherwise unremarkable lid. A small lock seals it and no key was discovered in the search The fallen Dread's gear and the parts of the constructs are placed securely into Tratain's portable hole. During which time Tratain uses his curing wand. Finding the gem, gathering the gear and departing takes 10 minutes.

Soon Syr has the dagger and the group within 20' of him is plunged back into Silence. The party begins making thier way back to the main foyer's second stair landing.

Without an extradimensional space anywhere Syr has the dagger will radiate the Silence spell about him.

Monthor is healed through the use of the CSW wand and the party heads out on the landing and down the stairs to the main floor foyer. Several things are instantly noticed. The main doors stand open to the outside of the 50x50 room and pouring in through the door is the horde of undead that was just outside. The writhing mass of creatures tear and rip at themselves as they try and get to the heroes descending the stairs Arms, heads and other body parts are hurled from the mass as grotesque forms of missile fire.

Jass whips out a scroll and casts the magic forming a floor to ceiling Wall of Stone that completely plugs the doorway and stops most of the advancing horde of undead!

"We'll only get worn down if we fight that undead monstrosity", he calls to the others. "Go kill the little that got through and then we look for the other liches to take thier gems and end this madness."

Jass is getting a little frazzled, without even a customary smirk added to his words.

Listen: 35 -- Hearing Mac though muffled, Dwight looks to Mac wishing he had a good answer, even if it was a difficult solution.

"Pincushion" is his only response as the wall of stone appears (or doesn't).

Dwight perceives the undead to be one entity, and makes a determination of his hits on this truth.

He looks over his shoulder to see what method the group is using and backs supports it in his own fashion. When he sees Jass bring out a scroll and the wall drop, he smiles at the sorcerer and waves an acknowledgment, preparing to meet the undead that remain.

Jass recoils, seeing the undead horde is only cut off and slowed down, not stopped. "We've got to get out of here or our bodies will join the horde!" he shrieks in fear.

"Syr! I'll get you a chance out!" And the sorcerer flings a quick spell centered at B,C/8,9, creating a writhing mass of ebony appendages that grab at and crush everything in reach.

"Tratain! What do we do?" the confident demeanor of the sorcerer slips still further.

Dwight grows a bit concerned at the speed of the swarm overcoming the walls so quickly, as well as regenerating from his attacks.

Unsure of what else he can contribute to the group, he scans around using his limited dungeoneering background in the hopes of locating the secret door. (knowledge: dungeoneering--9, spot: 21)

Then he fires into the flying swarm closest to him (or the next closest thing if Mac has taken those out).

att #1: 41
dmg: 9 + 9(holy) + 3(ice) = 21

att #2: 25 (nat 1)

The halfling cleric is faced with several approaching swarms of undead and he knows that he won't be able to turn them. So, instead, Belkior turns to what he has always done best.

He concentrates and then casts his most powerful healing spell, targeting several of the swarms and also including Mac in the spell's area of coverage.

Vedik did not think it would come to this, but it has.

"Do NOT come within ten steps of me" he calls out between clenched teeth.

He never wanted to use this form, but little options are left. He flies across the room, landing before the flying swarm. His angelic form shifts, his wings disappear, his skin shrivels and stretches across his bones, his fingers become claws and the temperature plummets. The holy radiance replaced by the horror of undeath, Vedik has become the most powerful foe the Grey Knights have faced: The epic Winterwight.

Winterwight form: Damage reduction 10/-, Undead traits, cold subtype, cold aura, SR 34

Cold Aura (Su): A 10-foot-radius spread cold aura surrounds a winterwight. All creatures of the cold subtype in the field (including the winterwight) are treated as if having turn resistance +6 (if undead) and fast healing 10. Creatures subject to cold Damage take 2d10 points of cold Damage each round they remain within the cold aura.

Blightfire (Su): When a winterwight deals Damage to a living opponent, a night-black flame begins to burn on the opponent's body. If the opponent fails a Fortitude save (DC 35), it takes 4 points of permanent Constitution drain. The opponent must continue to save every round for the next 4 rounds (5 rounds total) to avoid being permanently drained of an additional 4 points of Constitution per round. The creature regains 10 lost hit points whenever it drains 4 points of Constitution, gaining any excess hit points as temporary hit points. These temporary hit points last a maximum of 1 hour. If the opponent is slain by blightfire, only icy fragments of the victim remain. The save DC is Charisma-based.

"RIght! I'm not making any... Whoa!" he declares as Vedick comes into view. He tries to stay the 10' clear of the... the... best not to ask. He scrapes along the side wall and then back wall, trying to push through various impediments and to find the rest of the Shields and Knights, and feeling poorly on several fronts.

As the group has mostly no effect on the horde, and the fact that Dwight is now being attacked, Dwight throws caution to the wind having found the location of the secret door almost direction under foot. With a quick look to Jass, Dwight moves to open the secret door and then fly through it.

Jass is relieved the biting insects are unable to get through his Stoneskin spell.... yet.

Nevertheless, it is with a great deal of relief that the sorcerer hears Syr announce the location of a Secret Door. The only trouble now would be to open it, get through, and dissuade the undead horde and the hordes of insects from following! "Get it open, Syr, and let's get out of here!", calls the sorcerer.

Jass dismisses the Black Tentacles as they can only hinder his companions and do nothing to the undead, and grabs a scroll out of his Pants O Plenty (Undeath to Death scroll). He guages the affects of the spells so far against the horde and swarms, and wonders if even this spell will have any effect.

"The undead horde is connected to the greater horde from outside the castle", Jass says convincingly, "It own't be killed by anything we can throw at it. If everyone gets on this side of the iron gate, it should stop the shambling horrors and we'll only have the insects to worry about."

Nevertheless, the sorcerer has learned that it is best to go with the plan rather than go off on your own. Tends to get people killed, that does! And so he roots through his Pants of Plenty for a scroll and targets through the iron bars to the hordes of insects and undead (and heroes) beyond.

"I can reach through the bars and with everyone touching, I can Dim Door them all to this side", Jass suggests.

With the heroes out of the immediate danger, Jass puts his scroll away and surveys the endless graveyard. "Pocket dimension", he suggests aloud, and casts Fly on himself, rising into the air and looking around for any danger or distinguishing markings.

"So, without Eclhin, how are we to find the other Soul Gems to kill this Dread of yours?"

Monthor asks for more healing, Belkior is in need as well. The Dwarven warrior also mentions the Tecurri time capsule MOM gave the Knights in the lost village below. Perhaps now would be a good time?

Jass surmises that where they are is a pocket dimension, he casts fly and rises into the air Highlight to display spoiler: { Jass Will save DC 27 if succesful... The Cemetary fades to a ghostly apparition and in its place Jass sees a oval room 50' wide and 80' long. Within stands the skeletal remains of a giant still wearing the thick black iron plate that is wore in life. A blazing great sword glows with brilliant fire in its hands and arrayed about him is a score skeletal dwarves in plate, thier Urgosh's poised for the attack. A booming voice issues from the giant, "Come and meet death at the hands of Vindar the Magnificent."}

"I can, with time, help anyone who was affected by the undead. At least, except for the weakening. The only question is, who should I heal first?"

Mac looks at lizard-boy. The look is not as condescending as those words might have had you believing, but the question begs an answer. "Much the same way we'll find and defeat the traps likely before us." he replies most dead-pan. "A graveyard is a good place to set a trap - take caution." Mac expects abominations to Gargul to climb out of the graves, or out from behind an inconvenient headstone or crypt or three with little notice.

Jass in Lizardfolk form flies into the air and the scene melts around him (Will Save 29). "By the Crones!", he yells in a startled voice, "the graveyard is an illusion hiding a Giant Lich!!!"

The sorcerers mind races to identify the spell that could keep the enemy hidden from sight and sound and can come up with all too many. His hands flash in a dismissing pattern to strip the spell and reveal to the Gray Knights and Crimson Shields the very real and close danger.

Dwight closes the gate hoping for safety behind the iron gate, but knows that this place holds no safety, especially for those weary and sick and aiming to end the life of all Liches of the Dread.

He takes small comfort in the absence of undead in the graveyard behind him, only to be startled out of his momentary lapse. At Jass' words, his bow is again raised, though a bit of strain is seen on Dwight faces as he pulls the string back aiming for an unseen giant and fires (blindly if Jass hasn't made the Giant appear.)

Vedick divines that the second threat must also be an illusion and shifts into a Balor. The foulest most evil thing in existance, but not without its uses. One of those being the ability of True Sight.
What he sees is quite scary.

The room is empty and is 50' long and 30' wide. 20 feet from where the party stands is a geat hole that encompasses the full 30' width and remaining 30' length of the room. The hole falls away completely though the Sky castle to the ground over 12,000 feet below. Syr is standing about 6" from the drop, looking about for his dagger. Everyone else is anywhere from 5'-10' from the deadly plunge.
On the far side of the room a secret door lies in the wall, revealed by Vedick the Balor's sight

Jass keeps clear of the Balor who speaks in Vedik's voice, but disagrees with Monthor. "We are almost all completely healed and you can be to with a couple clerical touches. Let's fly over there and find another lich!"

Jass, however, is NOT the one to lead the flight. The sorcerer has learned that he is too frail to go charging off and trusting to luck and his confidence to win out of any situation. His thoughts take a dark turn and Jass shudders at his recent stint at being a ghost.

"Well, I wonder if that regrowing undead massssss, isss a Lich? If ssso, we need better tacticsss. Now the door or ressst, it mattersss little to me asss my arrowsss fly true now or then, though a bit lesssss ssskilled than an hour ago."

Dwight looks to Tratain for the final call as he likely has a better idea of our current healing and power options.

As the discussion continues, Dwight fires a normal arrow across the hole into the wall on the far side a few feet from the secret door -- Vedik described. He hopes attempting to follow the arrow with his eyes, he can see the true room. (Attempt at disbelief of giant undead with Vedik's description.)

Dwight offers what he can to Monthor's request -- casting Bear's Endurance on him. Perplexed on why the undead giant hasn't acted?

"Well... I cannot fly at the moment, and if we are going to save the spell, then the only one who could possibly carry me is Monthor, but I'm guessing everything but our armour would have to be carried by someone or some others else." {Mac + armour = 1832lbs}
"How far is it across the gap and how high the ceiling?" Mac begins considering the hypothetical possibility of a running long jump across the chasm he still cannot see.

Vedick calls out what he now sees and asks that everyone hold thier position.
Monthor still thinks this is the right time to rest and use that Tecurri time capsule thingee and activates his Tattoo again
Jass is for continuing, the group is physically all right after all.
Dwight fires an arrow across the room to where Vedick has siad there is a door. Will Save DC 24 to pierce the illusion. Still seeing the giant and dwarven skeletal horde, part of his mind still screams for action, perplexed at why they merely stand there
Syr moves across the pit towards the door. About halfway across he is gone, hurtling towards the earth below obviously no longer enchanted with the ability to fly. Highlight to display spoiler: { All active spells have been terminated}
Belkior uses another charge to cast Lesser Restoration upon himself
Mac would likely need flight, his bulk and equpment, nearly a ton would make being 'carried' very unlikely. The minotaur glances about thinking perhaps to jump. The illusion he sees marks the ceiling at well over 30'. The other tell him reality marks it at only 15'. A 30' long jump would put him approximately 8 feet off the ground. Possible but more difficult than if the ceiling were higher.

"I'll be right back"

He moves his hulking form to the edge of the chasm, and jumps off.

Diving straight down, he stays close to the edge and hopefully does not hit the anti magic field that knocked out Syr's flight, trying to catch up with the falling monk.

Jass makes an assessment upon himself and Syr's predicament as Vedik flies down to save the falling monk. The question is: did Syr's Fly spell fail at the moment he moved over the yawning abyss, or are all the spells from everyone gone?

And if the opening is an anti-magic field, did Vedik just throw himself to his death as well?

Tuesday November 23rd, 2010 9:14:36 PM
Syr glides out slowly over the chasm and his expression turns to horror as he begins falling. Those watching also see his body shrink to it's normal size before he drops. His fading voice yells back "No Magic..." to the group left behind. Being near the wall, he makes a mad scramble to hang on to something before falling 'out' of the structurel. (Climb 22 to arrest fall?). Assuming that he continues falling, the elf steadies himself. Rather than waste time watching his too short life pass before his eyes, the monk methodically considers his options. In his haversack he could consume 1 of two potions (fly or Gaseous Form) or he could just reactivate his boots. Deciding for the later, he waits until he is out of range of any antimagic device before activating his boots for the 2nd time today. Once activated, he circles around to the top of the island staying well away from anything threatening.

(OOC: hey guys, any advice? *gulp* EVIL DM! oh and I'm awaiting DM info to determine what to do with Vedik, thanks for the attempt though :)

The grand schemer
Wednesday November 24th, 2010 8:30:32 AM
Vedick slips over the edge and dives after Syr.
Jass and the rest hear Syr say no magic, but does that mean antimagic? Vedick remains in his Balor form as he goes and so at least the entire pit is not covered. Likely some sort of Dispel Magic and it happened when Syr was halfway across
Dwight keeps a wary eye out for danger
Syr plunges through the gaping hole beneath him 15' from any hand hold. No longer enlarged, he doesn't stand a chance. Syr is quickly 400' beneath the island and has several options. He decides reactivating his Boots of Flying to be the best option.
Belkior uses his staff and cures more of the Wisdom damage he sustained.

To keep things going
Vedick and Syr fly back up, staying close to the side and climb back up to the party.

"Looks like a deliberate trap to destroy powerful intruders. We all charge at the giant lich, hit an automatic dispelling effect and fall to our deaths. Even if most of us have flying ability, some may not and really reduce our fighting effectiveness. Pretty sneaky!", Jass says admiringly.

The sorcerer continues confidently: "Course, something so sneaky must hide something valuable, like the next lich. I'll Dim Door everyone over. It'll only take three spells; one over, one back, one over; and we'll all be on the other side."

"Maybe have Vedik fly his red skin over there and rip the door off its hinges? Then I could have a target to Dim Door to!"

If an Enlarge spell would hold, I could reach across a thirty-foot span like a living bridge without to many problems, and if the Enlarge failed, then I'd still be safe dangling on the end of a few ropes. The more reckless idea would be for me to take a leap o'er (after all, there is no magic in jumpin') and either wreck the door with m'axe on the way through, or bury the axe far enough into the door that I don't fall..."

We all have too much magic enhancing us right now, Greater Magic Vestments, Greater Magic Weapons, etc. Loosing those would probably force us to rest, and we've got far to many foes left to rest so early. Ideally, we don't want to rest until right before we fight the Dread, because we're going to need everything we have for that fight, and then some."

He nods at Jass

"I'll fly over there, I've got wings of flying if my shapechange goes, and teleport if the wings go."

He shifts to a smaller form, more angelic form. He then flies down again, going straight against the near wall until he is a good 30' below the island. Then he'll fly over, and up hugging the far wall, making a large U and hopefully avoiding the dispelling area.

Across the Chasm
Tuesday November 30th, 2010 8:28:06 PM
The group discusses several options, blind dimensional door and hope there is an other side to arrive to. Enlarge Mac and the minotaur could try and lay across and be a living bridge. Dwight could attempt to put couple arrows into the door with rope attached that a light person might use as a bridge. Vedick flies straight down a good way and then back up the other side.

The Door is made of reinforced wood. From here the metal is not completely identifiable, but it does have fair amount of rust.

Vedick slips over and flies down to a level completely beneath the island, about 200'. He then proceeds up the far side. About 10' to go, coming up under the door, the Ring of Counterspells activates.

Vedick arrives in front of the door

Vedik senses the triggering of his ring, and immediately casts another Greater Dispel magic into it.

He messages back to the group Something triggered my counterspell ring near the door. Could be a trap. I'll open the door, and hopefully you can teleport the group across without hitting it.

He then opens the door.

"I'm not a mage but my bet goes to a permanent field across the whole pit, thereby forcing us to encounter it much like I did. Although I figured flying below it would have fixed the problem as Vedik did." The elf gives Tratain a self-deprecating frown. He sizes the pit up and wonders if he can jump far enough with a running start.

Syr accepts the proffered door created by Jass with a nod of thanks. If something prevents that, then the elf volunteers. "Since most of my spells have already been through the ringer, why don't I try rappelling across on that bow line you suggested? I'm the one with the least to lose."

Beyond the Chasm
Wednesday December 1st, 2010 10:34:30 PM
Vedick casts Greater Dispel Magic into his ring and then opens the door. Surprisingly enough the door does just that.
Tratain and Syr looks about seeing if they can spot a cater, they findsno traces and niether can anyone else

When Vedick opens the door...
Ghoslty figures rise from the floor where three mummified bodies lie. One Dressed as a nobleman of approximately 200 years ago from Plateu City, one as a mage from the Star Mage Guild and the third as brigand or highwayman. All look to the group with hatred and loathing in their violet glowing eyes.

The Nobleman clenches his fists and flings hims arms out wide emitting a horrendous wail and causing his hands to transform into deadly talons.
The Brigand draws a thin long blade which crackles with necromantic energy.
The Star Mage casts a Spell [Will Save 27 Mass Hold Person affecting Monthor, Tratain, Syr, Jass, Mac, Dwight and Belkior]

A cold wind blasts from the other pair, throwing dust and small particles of stone from the floor and an ominous moan begins to rise through the octive scale

Jass feels the ghostly mind forcing his muscles into paralysis and he fights with all his mental might against the undead. The sorcerer succeeds, though barely, and looks across the chasm at the ghosts. "What are they?" he asks, knowing little of Religion, "and how do we fight them?"

"The room looks too small for everyone to Dim Door into", he adds.

Not a man to stand around when there is a magical solution, Jass tries to see if magical electricity will affect the ghostly apparitions. A quick word and gesture, a Chain Lightning spell arcs across the space and into the enemy.

I can take the fight to them and join Vendik on the other side or carry/push a couple frozen out of harm's way."

Taking Vedik's call to mean that he needs help the elf backs up to get a running start and proceeds to jump the chasm. Not realizing his own strength and speed he sails over it easily and only stops himself on the far wall (Natural 20 jump 50', does he fly through the 1st image?). The monk balances carefully in the greased area (reflex 38) and flexes his hands gingerly causing a blue glow to emit from them (bless, free action). Hoping that he can harm the mage, he attempts a hold on him (natural 1).

DM earlier Will save was for the Hold. This oe was for being struck by the illusion that Syr believed until just now to be real

glowing hands= class ability "Blessed Hands (Sp): As a free action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity, the hand can cast a special Bless Weapon spell that affects all unarmed attacks she makes. This is a spell-like ability that can be cast at will.

Syr fights through the force of the necromantic blade tearing at his soul and the Brigand fades into the mists of illusion. With the mage gone that leaves only one opponent left, the nobleman
Jass Dimensional Doors to the other side with Monthor and Tratain
Tratain pierces the illusions as well, but decides for a more pernament solution and casts True Sight
Belkior activates his Bead of Karma
Mac pierces the illusion and fights off the Holding spell, However Jass does not bring the minotaur across. There are no opponents about that are not illusions
Vedick drops down through the hole and Casts Glitterdust at the Star Mage, with no apparent affect
Dwight is still held

The Nobleman's hands become like the talons of a Pit Fiend and with two great slashes, rend the monk into bloody ribbons.
[Syr Will Save DC 21 or fall unconsious. All party members that have not successfully saved to disbelieve make a Wil Save DC 21 or watch Syr die]

The Mage, visible to some, but not all floats to up and out of view to any in the room.
Mac seals the very air begin to shimmer above the chasm to his righ and slowly the form of the Star Mage appears, still translucent but now visible.

Mac inquires if the figure above the chasm is the Star mage
Dwight too, remains gripped by the paralyzing spell, his mind trying to come to grips with Syr's death.
Vedick casts another Greater Dispel Magic into his ring. What can he do to a ghost?
Jass knows the Brigand and Noble are an illusion, but what foul magic is at work against Syr. His conclusion is a sophisticated Progammed Illusion where actions of one part of the Illusion trigger additional phantasms. He attempts to dispel the controlling program without success
Tratain looks about for an exit and finds one, a Secret door. As of yet he does not know how to open it. He cautions the others on the numerous illusions

Jass is irritated at himself over the failure of his magic at so simple an illusion. "No mere magical phantom is going to get the better of me!", he growls, but is distracted by a green flash in the chasm; a disintegrate spell! Well, that's a little more important than a silly illusion.

Jass takes a step to the edge and looks about, seeing the ghostly mage in the corner firing away with spells. A small flick of his fingers, and Jass sends five Magic Missles at the ghost, knowing the force energy of the low level spell can strike an incorporal creature.

Save versus Hold: 27 (still held)
Save versus illusion: 14 (and yet another roll of 1)

Dwight remains held, helpless as Tratain and Vidick are hacked by the creatures. Unable to assist, tears well in his frozen eyes as these weapons seem to be able to bypass Tratain protections.

OOC: Pretty sure being held means I'm automatically grappled and take 8 dmg. :-(

ooc: Last round Jass took a 5 foot step to the entrance of the small room to look out on the space (moved to E,14) From there, it should be easy for Jass to see the ghost mage in the corner by peeking around the corner of F,14 himself, yes?)

Jass continues to target the Ghost Mage from around the corner with another 5 magic missles.

Dwight remains held and now Grqappled
Jass leans out over the pit and sends a barrage of Magic Missiles at the Ghost. They strike a barrier just short of the incorporeal mage.
Belkior is grapped and constricted, though no real damage is being done to him.
Mac too is entwined by the Black Tentacle spell
Vedik draws a wand and enacts Good Hope, targetting Mac, Dwight and Belkior. All receive the benefit
Monthor activates his Boots of Flying and moves out over the 12,000 foot chasm to go after the Ghost [Activate Boots move 40' while wearing Medium or heavy armor duration 50 rounds I believe this is the 3rd time today and they will no longer work after this until restied]

Illusions - 21 + 2GH = 23 (made -- finally)
Hold: 28 + 2GH = 30 (also made)

Finally semi-free, Dwight struggles with what he sees as much as the tentacles. Vedik and Tratain re-appear, standing, Monthor vanishes downward. Confused, entangled (fail: 28), Dwight attempts to grasp what is real and what is not --- in general he is really confused now.

Jass is really worried about the Gray Knight called Monthor. A quick thought of conversations makes Jass believe that Monthor has used all his uses of his Helm of Teleportation and Boots of Flying. And he's falling fast. "I sure hope the dwarf has some quick last minute magic up his sleeve",quips the sorcere, "because that constant dispelling has made it impossible for me to affect a rescue."

A quick pass of his hands and Jass targets the Ghostly Mage with his own Greater Dispel Magic to end the mages defenses.

Mac shrugs his shoulders, "Waste disposal, maybe? Yes, very nice teamwork."
Looking at Monthor he wonders how large an effect is keeping him there, and tests it by holding his bow at one end and seeing if he can reach a point where the bow tries to fall up instead of down.

"Any other illusssionss about?" Dwight asks still questioning what he is seeing and wanting verbal confirmation as his ears seem to be working correctly.

OOC: DM - sent you an email. I would like to convert Jass to Pathfinder as a Sorcerer with the Undead Bloodline.

- Jass was killed in Crimson Shields and returned briefly as a ghost. During this time, he had to fight against the corrupting influence of being undead and shortly before being raised, he killed a PC Ranger's animal companion. Was a really great role-playing opportunity.

- I'd like to use the conversion as an excuse to continue pursuing this role-playing; that Jass' death has affected his sorcerer blood and is now of the Undead Bloodline. He has to fight against the bad guys and his own encroaching blood!

- In gameplay, the undead Bloodline will help Jass in that many of his spells are mind affecting and useless against many high level opponents. Undead Bloodline would allow him to use mind affecting spells on corporal humanoid intelligent undead (ie vampires, lichs, mummys)

Whatcha think?

With the death of the Ghost Mage, the other illusions fall to mist and disperse to all whose mind were still enthralled by them. Vedick floats to the side with Mac, Belkior and Dwight, and assumes his angelic form on the prime plane once more. Mac can just get the tip of his bow to a point where he can feel the gravity shifting, but just so where his fingertips are all that is holding onto it. Were Monthor's several hundred pounds to grasp it, the minotaur would be extremely pressed to maintain it.

Monthor asks for a rope.
Jass wonders about the point, a dipsosal of sorts is suggested.
Tratain however had also discovered a concealed door during the fight.

While all this pondering is occuring, another wave of dispelling magic ballons over the chasm. The swell catches Jass in the doorway to the small room and Tratin who occupies the room. Monthor oin the far corner is not struck, as are none of the heroes on the far side

Are we converting before or after this experience point add?

With the 3.5 rules, 10,800xp takes Jass to 16th level. (110,990 + 10,800 + Hero Point 1,600 = 123,390xp = 16th level needs 120,000) :-)

Under the Pathfinder Rules, the Wold is on the Medium progression. Further, the conversion is to set on the same percentage up to the next level.
- at 110,990xp, Jass is about 50% to level 16.
- Pathfinder 15 level = 635,000xp and 16 level = 890,000xp
- 50% to level 16 on medium level is 762,500 xp
- 762,500 + 10,800 + 1,600 = 774,900xp

Barely a drop in the bucket!

Ditto.

With the 3.5 rules, 10,800xp takes Belkior to 16th level. (118,095 + 10,800 + Hero Point 1,600 = 130,495xp = 16th level needs 120,000) :-)

Under the Pathfinder Rules, the Wold is on the Medium progression. Further, the conversion is to set on the same percentage up to the next level.
- at 118,095xp, Belkior is about 87.5% to level 16
- Pathfinder 15 level = 635,000xp and 16 level = 890,000xp
- 87.5% to level 16 on medium level is 857,615xp
- 857,615 + 10,800 + 1,600 = 870,015xp

Close, but not quite to 16th.

I was assuming the Hero Point XP was already factored into the given XP. Please advise if I have this wrong.

So, after discussion and combat and more consideration, are we allowing Jass to Teleferry us across the drop? Will it then be an opportune moment for that casters to rest up?

Dwight produces his wand of cure serious wounds and again thinks of poor Plyf. "I can ussse thisss if needed," he states are he looks to the true medics unsure the extent of what healing powers remain after so many battles.

"Now, about that door," he says as he considers how much time has been passing between each dispel.

Dwight waits for Monthor to be healed (by others or himself), before examining the door for traps, and determining how the door is open. (Dwight prefers not to wait in/near the dispel area very long.)

Brief Clarity Post:

Our portable hole holds about a real life years worth of equipment going back to May of 2010. Our DM has kindly allowed us to split that up between the current players for the purpose of pathfinder conversion. I'm going to coordinate with him, but I think what he wants to happen from what I asked and what he posted is we'll total the loot and split it between the current players as additional cash you can purchase stuff in pathfinder for.

I'll get a total out to you asap.

On the conversion itself, don't go to the catacombs for the purchases. Just do the conversion yourself, show the math to the DM for approval, and you're good to go.

Sanity:
I went through the archives, here's a quick recap.

1) We've killed 4 dread lords, we only have 3 soul gems (missing one from draco lich)
2) Elchlin said he sensed 2 dread lords below (through the door we're about to open).
3) We still have a considerable amount of spell resources, but we are dwindling. Probably near 30% spells remaining on average.
4) We havent rested in over 9 months of real life time. :)

The default instruction is cash out your equipment at full value and rebuy in Pathfinder. Do not go through the catacombs. You can not self craft items in this conversion, though you can buy materials to craft items. Dan hasn't said he wants us to do anything different.

Party gear you should probably cash out and rebuy the same item. Coins that are yours you can spend or not.

Jass looks at his friends, the recent death, ghost existance, resurrection, and battling the liches taking its toll. The man is still full of confidence, but there is an underlying shadow that occasionally peeks through of a haunted visage. The sorcerer is pale of skin and his blonde hair is now rapidly graying and thin. Standing 5 foot 9 inches tall, his common traveler's clothes and cloak is easily overlooked by the smile that plays around the easy-going mouth. Furball his once common companion is gone.

"...a medic for Jass here too, as well as Monthor!" The taur ignores his own minor constriction damage wrought by the Black Tentacles, more keeping an eye on others and still being prepared to brace himself (as previously posted) should Dwight's prediction come to pass. Back in closer quarters he has reshouldered the bow and drawn his axe. Resting upon his other shoulder, the axe poses no threat (of physical comedy) to the party - not even for an enlarged Monthor.

Okay - here's a question for the group:

Belkior is carrying a Staff of Healing (that has seen a lot of use lately) that was a group item in the Crimson Shields. Staves have been significantly changed in Pathfinder and I don't believe that they are viable in context of the Play-by-Post format used in the Wold. Certainly not in this game where we won't have any downtime.

With the groups permission, I will "sell" it (discounted for use of charges) and re-purchase wands with the equivalent spells with the resulting cash.

New Character and Spells Sheet.

As a DM Sanity lesson learned in the Forged, which started as pathfinder a few weeks ago, I suggest we all post the following stats in our headers.

Name, HP, AC (Normal, Touch, Flatfooted), CMD

It made the DM's life there much easier.

Vedik can provide Magic Vestments to the party through his fixer abilities. Who should I plan to provide Magic Vestments +5 for in the morning buff routine? I poked through everyones converted character sheets and this is the count I get.

Belkior: Celestial Armor and +1 Shield, so 2 there
Dwight: Has +8 Bracers, so no need there
Jass: Cant see char sheet, possibly 1
Mac: Has +4 plate, so can bump that up to +5, 1
Tratain: 2, shield and armor
Me: 2, shield and clothing

So 8 Total, maybe 7 if Jass is using bracers?

Jass of Downs AC:28 HP:108/178
Tuesday January 18th, 2011 1:19:59 PM
ooc: for some reason, I never gave permissions to view Jass (silly Steve!). Corrected.

Jass will not be able to use Magic Vestment, so no use on him. He has mithril chain mail +5 (with light armor and arcane armor feats), and doesn't have a shield at all to cast shield on.

....

Jass casts Dim Door and moves to the near side ledge, linking Dwight, Monthor, Mac, and Belkior in another Dim Door to bring them all to the little room.

"Do we want to buff up before you open that little door, Tratain?" asks the pale-skinned Jass with a confident smirk. "I can set up an Antimagic Field in this room. Anyone can cast spells and they would be fully operational once we leave the anti-magic field. The duration starts ticking away immediately, but they couldn't be dispelled." The smile grows broader.

Tratain casts Cure Light wounds Mass on the Party when everyone is together. (Everyone Heals 32)

He says "If you have any spells left to cast lets do that quickly and then head through that door there. I don't think the Anti-Magic Field is a good idea until we know what is on the other side of that door. It could backfire on us if we aren't careful."

Once everyone is ready Tratain looks for a way to open the door. He also asks Dwight to look as well and search the door for traps before actually trying to open it.

He also readies to release his shield should there be any enemies on the other side of the door.

OK guys, Pathfinder at high level, as if things weren't complicated enough, there are going to be mistakes, likely by me multiple times. to keep us fluid I'm asking that barring my goof from eradicating the group we roll with it and move on. i will try not to make multiple catastrophic blundes or to repeat the same blunder more than say a dozen times

I would like a simple by in post that everyone is set

Jass ferries everyone across through Dimension Door spells [spells]
Monthor, where is the Cold Resistance comig from, I had it gone through a dispell some time back. I also thought Shield Other had been taken down
Tratain casts Cure Light wounds Mass on the Party when everyone is together. (Everyone Heals 32)
Vedick, there is no morning Buff as the group has decided to simply push on
Monthor is requesting a Stoneskin. Anyone?
I have not heard from Dwight or Belkior. Anyone?

Last request if you good players especially those with Pathfinder experience could look over sheets for any big goofs thanks

Mac shows interest in the Barkskin and Stoneskin when they are mentioned, but he's not sure what else might be good by way of buffs, then is dawns on him and he looks to Belkior and asks, "If it comes to it, can you keep them out of my head please?"

When everyone is ready, Dwight steadies himself as the door disappears, or he opens it.

The party is incredibly cramped in the 15x15 foot cloak room, especially given the fact that no one can stand in front of the doorway or else the Greater Dispel Trap activates. The Door is inspeted best tat it can be and then opened with Montor, Vedick and Tratain spilling immediately into the chamber beyond. Mac squeezes through followed by Dwight Belkior and Jass.

The grand chamber beyond is 30x80 and well lit with floating everburning candles (10' up) the ceiling is 20'.high and painted with a great mosaic of patterns and color that you feel you could lose yourself in if not careful.
The chamber is completely empty

Tratain Highlight to display spoiler: {the room extends an additional 50' beyond a ghotly vaporous wall. About 15' from the door are 4 skeletal gnomes undead with 10' between them.

100' from the door is a skeletal gnome, wearing what was once quite regal clothes. Now tattered and torn. An exquisite crown rests on his skull and several stones float about his head. 4 vampires stand with him, 2 on each side.

At the far end behind the illusionary wall 130' away stands another imposing figure of death. Tattered clothes draped about his body and eyes likefires of hate buring in its sockets.Highlight to display spoiler: {<span class="spoiler">}

Dwight barely shrugs off the effects of whatever it is he can't see in the room. He has a strong suspicion the empty room isn't empty even before his comrades say otherwise. As he enters the room he sees the enemy.

Quickly moving, (thanks to Vedik's Haste), Dwight floats into the room, then goes above the door and to the right about 20-25'. Hearing Monthor's description, and that 2 liches should be in this room, Dwight activates his ring of Blink and begins taking aim.

Jass' confidence easily overcomes the little light show cast at him (and identifies it), but it must have distracted the sorcerer, for he doesn't see through the illusion. The dead-eyed man looks doubtfully at Vedik and Tratain when they tell the others it is an illusion, but he has seen enough of these Gray Knights to respect thier skill.

That and the obvious attack make Jass prepare for battle. He casts a Tiny Hut spell which encases a 20 foot radius in a comfortable temperature, and also gives him an opaque shield to avoid any targeted attacks!

The halfling cleric easily withstands the magic and pierces the illusion. He can probably even identify the spells being cast, too.

Having seen through the illusion, Belkior tries to identify the skeletal creatures so that he can relate their weaknesses to his companions.

With a flick of a withered wrist a Wall of Ice springs up behind Moac, Monthor and Belkior. The foul creature then reaches towards the three and a black miasma lances from his hands and into your chest.

OOC: Mostly Saving Throws and questions.
Mac makes the first Reflex Save(21 vs 16 against Dmg 30 SR 25/28). If that is for the Wall of Ice then doesn't it fails to come into existence? - Mac makes the second Reflex Save(32 vs 16 against Dmg 29 SR 25) - Mac makes the third Reflex Save(31 vs 16 against Dmg 33 SR 14/18) - Mac fails the Will Save (17 vs 31) but not the Fortitude Save (33 vs 27), taking Dmg 12 Stunned & 2 points Str Dmg [Mind effecting Fear] SR 27

Does this 'veil' prevent Mac from seeing the black miasma and the Ice Wall? Are the three Reflex saves for half damage or no damage?

The Veil ie Screen spell prevents you from seeing anything except candles and empty room. You cannot see the miasma the wall or anything else. Rfelex saves were for Lihgnting bolts so save for 1/2

Ice Wall

Ice wall is on the line of 24/25. No one is adjancent

the reflex saves are for lightning bolts
the will and fortitude saves are for the Wierd

ooc> Monthor has immunity to death effects
Bracers of protection- spell resistance 20. Absorb energy-draining attacks, death effects, and negative energy effects.
Does this also protect him from the Dmg 12 Stunned & 2 points Str Dmg?

Regarding the lightning. Monthor has a electricity damage reduction 10, and I see the SR is 14 (Monthor has a SR of 20). How would I calculate this this in before I role his Reflex save?

Jass dodges as a lightning bolt flies thorugh his Tiny Hut, getting slightly singed and burning out his False Life spell. The pain helps him focus and to pierce the Screen that has been keeping the enemy from his sight.

Of course, now there is something else keeping him and the others from the enemy; a Wall of Ice. Casting a Targeted Greater Dispel Magic on the Wall of Ice, Jass works to open the way for the others.

As soon as it goes down, Jass targets Skeleton#2 with a Quickened Magic Missle, bludgeoning it with magical force!

DM Sanity: Pathfinder Greater Dispel Magic.
Highlight to display spoiler: {Targeted Dispel: This functions as a targeted dispel magic, but it can dispel one spell for every four caster levels you possess, starting with the highest level spells and proceeding to lower level spells.
Area Dispel: When greater dispel magic is used in this way, the spell affects everything within a 20-foot-radius burst. Roll one dispel check and apply that check to each creature in the area, as if targeted by dispel magic. For each object within the area that is the target of one or more spells, apply the dispel check as with creatures. Magic items are not affected by an area dispel.

For each ongoing area or effect spell whose point of origin is within the area of the greater dispel magic spell, apply the dispel check to dispel the spell. For each ongoing spell whose area overlaps that of the greater dispel magic spell, apply the dispel check to end the effect, but only within the overlapping area.
If an object or creature that is the effect of an ongoing spell (such as a monster summoned by summon monster) is in the area, apply the dispel check to end the spell that conjured that object or creature (returning it whence it came) in addition to attempting to dispel one spell targeting the creature or object.}

The halfling cleric avoids the worst of the lightning bolt sent at him by the skeletal simulacrums and then withstands the foul magic cast by the lich.
Reflex = 18, half damage
Will = 46

The magical skeletal fist, however, is a different story since it hits him full on, even though he withstands the stunning might of the strike.
Fortitude = 42

Belkior stands in place and prepares to return the favour to the two liches and their supporting vampires. He calls upon the greatest of the healing magics granted him by Alemi and attempts to damage the undead.

"Good good come to death would be heroes." The smaller lich closest to the heroes cackles. Another stream of black vapors comes forth from the small lich striking Mac Monthor and Belkior again.

The lich then gestures towards Monthor and 5 bolts of force streak into the warrior.

The other lich (Dz) rises into the air and forward to come to a stop 10' and just behind one of the vampires. Gesturing towards the stunned Mac 4 rays of green vaporous rays streak into the minotaur

He fails (natural 1... spend last Hero Point) no, succeeds on the Will Save 32 vs 31.

No longer Stunned, the taur attempts to gain some clarity. Will Save - natural 1 . Still unable to see the foes or their magics he knows another round like that will be the end of him. Still, he is not going to die without his Great-grandfather's axe in his hand. He takes the time to pick up the weapon. It feels comfortable - reassuring, then he turns his attention to the party and declares. "If YOU can see what is going on then GET MONTHOR'S BACK!! I've got nothing!"

He takes no step, as all it can do is put him in Belkior's way. Thoughts of an oath once sworn on the Plains supposedly a mile or so beneath him resurface.

Spells are moving this way and that, filling the air with the crackle of energies. There are so many that Jass despairs of countering any magic, for even one spell uncast would not dent the deluge. "So I must reduce the number of spellcasters", he tells himself.

Hasted as he is, it is a simple matter to trot out the hole Tratain put in the Wall of Ice and over to where Belkior standing. Jass passes the skeleton with the wand, but since it doesn't have a weapon, the sorcerer isn't worried about getting attacked.

Once in place, he pulls of the disturbing power that has been with him since his death in an underwater cavern, and casts Undeath to Death, hurling it against the wand wielding skeletons!

Then, in an instant, he casts a Quickened Tiny Hut to cover himself, Belkior, and Mac from attack.

Jass casts Undeath to Death, hurling it against the skeletons! Then, in an instant, he casts a Quickened Tiny Hut to cover himself, Belkior, and Mac from attack.
Tratain moves through the Ice Wall and strikes one of the skeletons, though it does not fall under the powerful strike.
Monthor manages to hold onto his axe and his footing, stepping up he strikes and the skeletn explodes in a cloud of icey crystals and snow
Dwight draws to fire through the tiny gap, but has no shot. He begins to move, but Jass erects a Tiny Hut and any possible target is suddenly vanished behind an opaque wall.
Belkior now heals himself in order to stay in the fight

The halfling cleric avoids some of the damage from the lightning bolts. As a Healer and Paragon, Belkior is immune to poison, including the effects of the Cloudkill spell. He again avoids being stunned by the magical fist of force.
Reflex = 34, 31
Fort = 37

The halfling cleric then uses one of his most powerful healing spells to cure himself and his companions and, hopefully, damage the lich.

Lightning, poison, and immune undead threaten to overpower Jass and his friends with a sheer number of magics. The sorcerer is able to withstand the onslaught, but is getting increasingly worried abou the flow of the battle.

Jass tries to go through his understanding of magic to determine why the skeletons were completely immune to his Undeath to Death spell. (ooc: not even a saving throw? no expanation on the skeletons ignoring the spell? Jass has already passed Will saves to see illusions, I have no idea whats happening!)

The obvious conclusion is the spell-weilding skeletons are not undead. But if not, what are they?

Jass can only think they may be shadows or illusions. Certainly, the lich that cast the Cloudkill and Tratain swears is an illusion must be a Similacrum! And so Jass steps forward and heroically casts a Greater Dispel Magic over the entire Area to strip away the Cloudkill and (hopefully) skeletons and spell-casting-illusion-lich.

Immediately, the Tiny Hut is gone. The Ice Wall, Cloudkill, Grease spells are affected as well as the 3 wand-wielding skeletons, lich, Jass, Belkior, Tratain, Mac, and Monthor.

DM Sanity Area Dispel:Highlight to display spoiler: { "spell affects everything within a 20-foot-radius burst. Roll one dispel check and apply that check to each creature in the area, as if targeted by dispel magic. For each object within the area that is the target of one or more spells, apply the dispel check as with creatures. Magic items are not affected by an area dispel.

For each ongoing area or effect spell whose point of origin is within the area of the greater dispel magic spell, apply the dispel check to dispel the spell. For each ongoing spell whose area overlaps that of the greater dispel magic spell, apply the dispel check to end the effect, but only within the overlapping area.

If an object or creature that is the effect of an ongoing spell (such as a monster summoned by summon monster) is in the area, apply the dispel check to end the spell that conjured that object or creature (returning it whence it came) in addition to attempting to dispel one spell targeting the creature or object.}

[So, Mac could now see everything if it weren't for the 5' max visibility from the Cloudkill... D'Oh! Necklace of Adaption prevents the Con loss from Cloudkill...

Mac is about to ask Tratain a question when (hopefully) the newest icewall and cloudkill and other dissipate (thanks Jass), at which he takes a 5' step along the wall and takes a mighty swing at Skeleton 4. [40|55]

OK guys the wall of Force broke the Project Image Spell

So that means no second Wall of Ice and no Cloud kill spell
Everything else remains

The illusionary wall (light Blu on the map) is NOT part of the Screen spell. Unless you have true sight, Specifically interact with it physically or use a Move action to specifically see through it by making another DC 31 will save, you cannot see tha last 50' of the room.

Jass looks on in horror as his spell pulls spell defenses away and leaves the heroes vulnerable. The little skeletons' lightning wands are only a nusiance, but the lich's illusion stalks the sorcerer like a cat with a mouse. Only by the most heroic of efforts is Jass able to not be slain outright.

He stands tottering like an old man trying to breathe.

Jass feels the healing seep through him, pulling the effects of the evil spell away.

The sorcerer sends a smile Tratain's way, and then snarls at the lich. "More direct measures are required", he says, and evilly grins as he targets only one skeleton with a Heightend Hideous Laughter spell. "Being spell casters, you skeleton-men must have a mind of your own. And I have found that being a ghost myself once, I have certain affinity for your kind."

Monthor looks around him as the liche in front of him disappears. Then the hut poofs away. The grease on the floor... the wall of ice.... Fire erupts around him but between his resistance and the heal spell cast from Tratain, he ignores it. Equally, the acid attacks stigns briefly before being washed away by the cleric's healing powers.

Everything is moving so fast and furiously and the little halfling cleric barely knows what is going on. The worst of it is that all of his protective magics have been stripped away. So much so that he barely manages to resist the death magics.
Will = 31

Wanting to reveal those pesky vampires, Belkior casts a manage that strips their invisibility (and might even catch whatever is lurking at the far end of the room).

OOC: Not sure I am understanding acid damage: Belkior gets to make 8 Reflex saves against various acid attacks for half damage, while the rest of the PCs just take 91 acid damage each?

DM Belkior takes 31 physical points and then makes 4 reflex saves at DC 29 for half dmg vs 22/21/27 and 21 points. 43+31 if Belkior makes every save. The rest of the party is also makin the four saves at DC 29 for half dmg vs 22/21/27 and 21 points. 43 if all saves are made

More spells fly, and Jass is struck full force with one acidic sphere, but manages to avoid some of the other three as well as the follow-on lightning bolt.

The pain of the acid burning across his skin focuses the sorcerer against the flying lich. "Take the heavies down, and the others aren't much", he mutters to himself, and concentrates on the flying lich.

First,a Disintegrate ray streaks towards the undead, followed by three Quickened Scorching Rays. If syle doesn't work, sledgehammer blows will have to do, thinks the sorcerer.

I think what occured was an Acid Meteor Swarm, with a quickened Acid Scorching Ray. If thats the case:

It looks like the acid scorching ray is damage 15 + 23 + 17, no save to Belkor
Then Belkor got hit with the four spheres for 31 physical, no save
Then everyone in the area, including Belkor, gets hit with Dmg 22/21/27/21 4 Reflex saves vs the acid dmg for 1/2 each DC 29 SR 28.

But thats only a guess based on the rolls.

Also Belkor, you were healed by Tratain's Mass Heal last round.

DM on the money on the spells. Vedick is stunned this round, Tratain's Mass Heal did not get to you.

The halfling cleric seems to have attracted the attention of the undead. First, he gets hit by four balls of acidic fire, but the power of Alemi somewhat blunts their physical force.
Physical Damage - 4 attacks, dealing 31 damage but reduced to 11 by Paragon 7 Instant Healing ability (DR 5/-)

Alemi's blessing (and his companions' spells) also seem to be with him as he avoids some of the acidic spray from the balls.
Note - I forgot to add bonus from Reflex saves, but it doesn't matter - Reflex saves - 36, 26, 30, 31 - taking 11, 21, 13 and 10 acid damage.

OOC - Mr. DM, the text suggests that the lich also hit Belkior with some scorching rays, but I don't see the damage and saves anywhere. I am applying the 55 damage that Vedik has calculated.

Belkior then casts a healing spell to recover most of what has just happened to himself and his companions. His spells affects himself, Mac, Jass, Tratain, Vedik and Dwight.

ooc: oops, was tracking Jass' move action on 25 January saw through illusions. Didn't register that there was another illusion to see through.
..........

Jass partially dodges another lightning bolt, and even though the sparks crackle around him, he grins. "Only one spell? Means there are not as many bad guys still around, eh?"

Looking through the Illusionary Wall, he sees a Wall of Ice now blocking the way. He calls out the situation and plan at the same time. "Wall of Ice behind the Illusion Wall. I'm going to knock a hole in the middle for you to get the lich!"

And Jass aims a Disintegrate ray at the center of the wall of ice.

He follows it immediately with a Quickened Magic Missle at Pindar.

" MAC! Get to me! We're doing this one like we did the others."

Monthor delays until Mac can get to him, and see if Tratain's spell falls the lich. If not, Monthor activates his new boots and attempts to teleport him and Mac behind the lich (D3). He'll go by himself if Mac can't make it to him in time.

Jass' eyes widen as his magic missles bound back to him, but his Shield spell makes the sorcerer immune to his own rebounded magic missles. "Whew!"

"Curses, foiled again!" shouts Jass as he sees the lich Pindar teleport away. "But now is the time to get the next piece of the Soul Gem." He looks around the bare room. "Any thoughts on where it is?"

Jass is a poor searcher, and since it involves menial physical activity, he determines that he would be much more use as a sentry against anyone teleporting into this room.

The sorcerer casts a Detect Scrying spell and then readies a Disintegrate pending anyone trying to get the jump on his friends and the Gray Knights.

He says "Lets search all the bodies here and see what we can find. We need that Lich's soul gem."

Tratain helps Dwight look for the Gem using Detect Magic to see what he can find. He also looks around the Room trying to find any doors that are hidden with his True seeing. (Perception 33)

The Dread Lord Pindar
Tuesday February 8th, 2011 6:44:42 PM
the full extent of the room, through the Illusionary Wall and Screen spell is a grand hall, likely a banquet hall at the time of construction. The walls arch overhead to 20' and large windows, now bricked in run down one side of the the 150' room. Each former window is about 2' wide and 15' high. What is left of any furniture is near the back of the hall, nothing has survived intact. The remnants of 3 great fireplaces are also located, bricked up and unused for centuries.
Mac discovers the snow white powder is precisely that, snow. now quickly melting away. The replicates of the small lich will soon vanish without a trace.

Dwight looks frustrated as he rummages through the dead bodies. His left eye twitching uncontrollably as another round of shivers are felt. The thought of spending more valuable time digging through rotting wood and other debris only causes it to flare more.

"Wish Echlin was still here to lend his special abilities." He looks to Jass, "by chance do you have a way to detect a particular type of undead magic?"

As he awaits an answer, he figures out which Lich got away? Are the illusionist Lich, Sword Lich the ones still missing? Plus the gem of the Draco-Lich? Only having destroyed some of them, Dwight would rather finish them offer permanently before resting and summoning the hordiness that will be the final phase.

Mac watches the ice turn to slush... the slush turn to water. There is a metaphor here - probably more than one - but it slips passed. He nods in agreement on the matter of some down time - and whilst he could press on, it would be with reduced or no support, and that would not be good for anyone.
"It has not been too bad for about an hour's work, with all due respect to those behind us keeping opposing forces at bay."

Mac looks to Belkior at his question and replies, "Not in any rush, but, yes, after those in greater need." he pauses and adds in more hushed tones, "I know I asked you to keep them out of my head, but next time please let them in enough for me to see them?"

Tratain then helps the group search for the Lichs soul gem. Once it is found or the group has searched everywhere the group will rest using the Gem after Tratain Heals everyone.

Destis and debris is shifted about and sifted through. Not as unpleasant as the foul rank in the Dracoliche's cave, but not exactly a frolic in the fields either. Eventually the group does discover an irregular cut clear diamond about the size of a halflings fist. It pulses with an unholy light and carries the now familiar edge and feel of one of the Dread's soul gems. The heroes now possess 4 of the 7 gems, 4 of 7 pieces of what appears to be an intricate three dimensional puzzle. Tratain and Belkior use thier remaining healing spells and Positive energy to fully heal the party and then the Teurcri timecapsule is enacted.

A great mansion springs forth about the party, Over 20 rooms of granduer and elegance to make any king feel at home. Servants of violet and sunshine yellow mist move about providing food and drink of nearly anything any of the heroes can think of.

Vedik is amazed by the near artifact power of this device, a continuing full day time stop. He makes a note to study the device when the effect ends.

After sharing what the items are with the party, Vedik marvels at the two scrolls in the gloves. "Well...tha's interesting. Apparently tha dreadlords are showin' off, they put tha quicken effect on a scroll. Thing is tha scroll still takes normal casting time ta read, ya can't make it faster with quicken. Ya, gotta be them showing off."

He looks the stuff over, thinking. "Tha thing's I could use are tha bracers, one of tha gloves, and tha scrolls of clenched fist, mages mansion an scorching ray. Tha bracers are a slight upgrade from tha Magic Vestment effect, so if someone can make more use o em, thats fine. Glove is nice for tha metamagic rods, but it's good for tha weapons too if a warrior needs. Scrolls I'd pen ta my spell book."

If the group decides to let him have the scrolls, he'll pen one of them into his spell book (highest level), then with nothing else to craft, he spends the day relaxing. He figures its not really a day off, since no real time will have passed.

OOC:
Vedik has +5 armor from the Magic Vestment, so he'd get a +3 net gain to ac from them. If someone else wants them and gets more ac out of it take em. If someone has +5 or 6 bracers take em for the upgrade and I'll take your old ones.

With healing and this fantastic, Time Stopped place, Jass relaxes as much as he dares. He doesn't even need his Unseen Servant with the excellent staff of the place!

"A bath is just the thing!" declares the sorcerer, and he is quickly stripped and soaking in a hot, hot tub. After aches disappear and relaxation is in every pore, Jass changes to a cleaning tub. The caked grime of dirt and sweat are scrubbed away, revealing a pale Jass. Rather more pale than the human remembers. Glancing at a mirror, the sorcerer shudders and looks away. "Like looking at my own corpse", he shudders.

Jass quickly gets dressed. The experience of his death is still lingering, and even getting stronger. "No more mirrors", he promises to himself, and seeks a bed for sleep.

Dwight looks over the pile and wonders if the gloves of storing, as they currently are might be helpful for him and the group. "Do you think it would be helpful, if I wore the glovesss with the ssscorching ray? Sssomeone should wear them and at leassst use the ssspell. We will need all the power we can get our handsss on." He chuckles at the un-intended joke.

"The glovesss of teleport ssshould be usssed asss well. Anyone not have a way to teleport themssselvesss at leassst once?"

(OOC: Dwight seems to do decent damage now, so if someone else can do damage with the gloves they should take them.)

In the palace, Dwight tries to relax, his hives dissipating in the warm water. His eyes becoming less blood-shot with the third helping of bread, cheese, fruit and some small battered shrimp.

Eventually Dwight asks, "Ssso do we have an end plan? We need to find two gemsss. A third gem isss within the handsss of a Lich who sssaysss he wissshes to help usss and then depart purely for resssearch. And then, the gemsss must be usssed to sssummon the Dread massster." Dwight knows most of these thoughts don't have exact answers, but he is also filling in his new companions.

Mac looks at Dwight, trying to get his mind around the premise. "Are you saying the gloves will teleport anyone who wears them? I don't have teleport myself, and I'm interested, but I'm not sure how that works?"

OOC: Is this a spell trigger item, or does it behave like a Helm of Telportation and Gloves of Storing?

Jass wraps a brightly designed robe provided by the staff to lose his body in its soft folds and moves to the main room for food and drink and companionship.

"I would be able to use any or all of the scrolls, and the Headband and Ion Stone would both be extremely useful. I think one of our warriors should have the Ion Stone, however, for added protection against lower level spells."

He turns his dead-looking eyes on Tratain. "Now may be a good time to fill the Crimson Shields up on exactly what is going on and why there are so many lichs on this floating island. Why are you collecting thier Soul Gems and not destroying them?"

He looks at Dwight. "Need to find 2 Gems? Plus one with a 'friendly' lich. Do you know where these gems are or who they are with? Besides the one lich that ran away that is. Pretty obvious where that Gem is."

Dwight wonders if he is the best to try and answer Jass' questions. "Well," he begins. "Thisss floating isssland ssseemsss to be the stronghold of the Lordsss of Dread. The Lordsss are ssseven Lichesss, who have gathered in thisss rare occasssion to sssummon their sssupreme massster, ssso to ssspeak. The gemsss, when placed together properly, are the sssummoning device."

"Thusss far, in the three hoursss or ssso sssince we arrived, we have killed 5 Lichesss, found 4 of their gemsss. In one location we killed two, found one gem. We had hoped to find the other at their home location, but had no luck. We returned and the body wasss gone. Ssso we have one missssssing Lich plusss hisss gem. Then the Lich that jussst got away, with hisss gem and the conssspiring Lich, who we've talked too."

"I doubt I would ussse the word friendly, but he didn't attack usss and ssspoke of aiding usss for hisss own benefit of courssse. I sssussspect the Lichesss are bound by their massster in sssome way, and usss killing the massster would free him to put forth hisss full attention to ssstudy -- as he put it. I don't fully believe the Lich, asss I doubt anyone doesss, but we don't exactly know how to sssummon the massster, but the time isss near due to sssome assstrological alignment or sssomething."

Dwight then looks to the others to clarify or correct. Having been in the situation, Dwight is unsure of some of the details, so he can only imagine how lost his new comrades feel.

Tratain recharges his rings of counterspells and then relaxes for a while.

When Jass asks his question he says "Dwight has most of it correct. There is an Organization called the Sons of Dread, they generally go about doing bad things. A while ago they caused an earthquake in Plateau City so we went looking for them again. The Knights have been fighting the Dread since before I joined."

He continues "We learned that the Leaders of the Son's of Dread, the 8 Dread Lich's were meeting here to summon thier Master the Dread Himself. I think he is trying to become a god or something. If we can defeat the 8 Dread Lords and The Dread we can destroy thier organizations power for a long time if not destroy it outright. We have fought 6 of the Dread Lords, We have 4 of thier Soul Gems. We are missing the One from here that got away, One From a Draco-Lich, One from Bas'anut, who claims he wants to help us destroy the Dread and there is one more we have yet to encounter. We have less than a day to destroy them or they will all go thier seperate ways again and we will have lost our chance."

Rest and Relaxation - ADM Joe
Monday February 14th, 2011 9:42:57 PM
The Group spends a day in much needed relaxation and conversation. Questions are asked and answered about the situation the Crimson Shields suddenly find themselves in alongside with the Grey Knights.

The Teucri Magic gives everyone a chance to rest and replenish inside the magic sanctum while time slows to a crawl outside, but its magic could only be used once and the respite it offers will soon come to and end.

Jass of Downs AC:28 CMD: 22 HP: 178/178
Tuesday February 15th, 2011 9:49:44 AM
"So, 8 Dread Lords, each a powerful lich, and each have part of a key that calls an uber-lich. And we kill the uber-lich to end the Dread, or at least this current incarnation of it."

"And we have 4 Gem-Keys. One missing from a draco-lich, one still kept from happy who teleported away, one from your lich friend who 'says' he'll give his to you, and one in whereabouts unknown."

"And you have no means of locating said Gems except by running about this island, for today only, and hoping to bump into them."

Jass smiles with sarcasm. "No problem!"

Tratain shrugs at Jass and says "We've done ok so far. We just have to find one more, find out where the one who teleported went to on the island, and find where the Draco-Lich got off to. I don't think he moved on his own so soon after us destroying him."

Tratain says "I'll hold onto one of those Gloves of Storing for a while. It'll make it easier for me to take out and put away my shield."

He finishes "Now we just need to figure out our plan of action once our little hide away goes away soon."

OOC: Since I am running the Module for a little while Tratain is going to be passive so you guys need to direct where the group goes and does for a bit.

Jass of Downs AC:28 CMD: 22 HP: 178/178 d10=4 ;
Tuesday February 15th, 2011 9:34:49 PM
"Well, it sounds like we either grope around blindly, visit the likely hiding spots for the lichs, or magically determine where the Gems or lichs are." Jass holds up three fingers.

"I don't like groping blindly, so let's look at the other two options, shall we?"

"For magical detection: I can send out some Prying Eyes to look and report and we may get some information that way. The only other thing I can think of is to Contact Other Plane with my Limited Wish capabilities."

"For likely places: who has a map of this flying island? Mark off where we've been and we can determine where we still need to go."

Jass holds two hands for the two options, weighing them up and down and waits for some of the others to determine what they are going to try.

"Oh, and are we going to teleport somewhere from here or are we going to go through the dispel magic trap? Makes a difference on when we cast buff spells, eh?"

The Group gets a full nights rest and continues to make plans as for thier future moves. The Items that are useful to the group are handed out. (Lets list who is getting what just in case those items are needed.)

Vedik spends time thinking about Liches and remembers quite a bit about them and thier weaknesses, but nothing specific about the Dread Lords themselves. All he remembers about the Dread is no one besides the 8 Dread Lords has ever made contact with it and lived to tell the tale.

Dwight lists where the group has been on the Island already. Part of the Castle has been explored, All the buildings of note outside the Main castle have also been explored.

After 24 Hours in the Mansion have passed the group finds itself deposited back in the room where they activated the Teurci Time capsule. Only a few seconds has passed in the Wold while the Group has had a full 24 hours to rest and relax.

Mac
Belkior
Vedik
Dwight

...............

Unless someone else raises thier hand, Jass helps pass out the magic items...

Vedik gets: Bracers Armor +8, Glove of Storing, Scroll-Clenched Fist CL 18, Scroll-Mages Mansion CL 18, Scroll Quicken Empower Scorching Ray CL 20

Mac gets: Headband of Mental Superiority +4 (INT, WIS, CHR), Ring Major Fire Resistance

- Scroll-Quicken Teleport CL 20

HHH gets: Cloak Resistance +4

.............

"The information is useful", acknowledges Jass, "and slaying such a powerful undead threat is needful. I'm glad the Crimson Shields are here to help out."

Then the magical mansion fades away.

"I see three ways out", Jass tells the others. "One: we go back the way we came, getting attacked by the Greater Dispel Magic trap, and wade through the undead swarm-horde before we find any liches."

"Two: we drop out the hole below, possibly getting attacked by the trap and then flying up and around to the top of the island and make another go at the castle. Or..."

"Three: We Teleport or Dim Door to the battlements of the castle and start taking it apart from top to bottom." He twirls the three teleport scrolls about his hands as he speaks.

Jass is going to wait to cast any buffing spells pending which direction the heroes are going to go.

" Not me style me friends but me'll do it until Tratain can take the job back. "

The warrior scratches his beard.

" May as well stick to what works. As soon as we identify a lich, Me'll teleport with Mac and Tratain to it and beat the orc sweat off of it. Me'll wait until someone casts haste on us first. The rest of ye cover us. When me says the word "rose bud", Mac and Tratain gab hold of mees and we'll be teleporting. Any objections to the plan, say it now. "

The party decides on their plan and executes it. Once the Party has cast all the spells they desire Jass and Vedik both use a teleport scroll (Unless I'm told otherwise) and everyone finds themselves on the battlements.

The Group works their way down through the castle retracing their steps. After about 10 minutes the group finds themselves almost back to the Main Foyer. The last place in the Castle the group has not gone is the North wing of the Mansion. The door leading to the North Wing is through the Main Foyer.

Jass will accept a Resist Fire spell from Tratain's wand. He can't do anything about a Stoneskin for anyone, but the sorcerer gets a bright idea and Casts a Detect Scrying spell. "For the next 24 hours, I'll know if anyone is detecting us using any type of divination spell", he tells the others. "That may affect our actions, no?"

Once at the door to the main foyer, Jass stops. "The last time we were in the Foyer, the undead horde came shuffling through. Any ideas on how to get from here to the door to the north wing? 3 or 4 Walls of force should be able to make ourselves a tunnel through the horde, not that I can do that." he adds.

Dwight wonders who has the wand of stoneskin, was it Echlin? oops if it was

With or without, Dwight recovers for the nausea feel he always gets when he teleports quickly, expecting danger. Luckily, he gets a bit of time to relax, well, relative relaxation, as the party troops through semi-familiar territory.

"The Main Foyer isss where we met thossse biting bugsss and other creepy crawly thingsss isssn't it," Dwight asks hoping his internal map is off and someone can correct him. "Assside from barricading them off, I'm not sssure how elssse to ssstop them, or rather it if we assssssume it'sss one creature. It likely hasss to be killed at the bassse, rather than limbsss like a tree."

Wednesday February 23rd, 2011 1:55:20 PM
Jass waits to see if there are any scrying devices on the Gray Knights or Crimson Shields before taking one of Monthor's shoulders and giving a tug. "Waitaminute. If we go wading in on the undead horde, we'll waste a lot of assets, and I don't know if we'd win. Unless we find a brain that controls the whole thing, we'd be striking at a continuously regenerating being. No Win Situation."

Jass ponders and comes up with a solution. "Using Limited Wish, I can create a Passwall spell on the roof of the North Wing. That will let us drop in on whatever is hiding there!"

Slipping by the Horde - ADM Joe
Thursday February 24th, 2011 8:51:41 PM
The Group approaches the Main Foyer and options to get around the Horde are tossed around.

Tratain casts Hide from undead and when the Group is ready he goes to test his theory that it will allow the group to slip through to the North door.

He enters the Foyer and the Undead Horde mills around, randomly wandering here and there throughout the room. Tratain is able to make it to the Door by deftly avoiding the Horde, as it makes no move to avoid what it can't detect. He opens the door and enters and waves for the group to follow.

Dwight smiles realizing that is the same technique they had used to fly into the mansion to begin with. Still, he doesn't waste anytime looking around the Main Foyer, no need to test fate and find another dispel magic region.

Once through the door, Dwight looks around the room/hall.

The Group manages to make it past the Horde unscathed with just a few close close by Mac being so much larger than the others.

The Group finds themselves in a smallish room, about 30 feet across and 15 feet wide with a set of double doors at the far end.

The Room was lavish to the extreme, plush carpets on the floor, Golden Statues on display, and Paintings on the wall. Everything is rotting and decomposing now, dust and dirt cover everything.

The Room Beyond - ADM Joe
Tuesday March 8th, 2011 10:48:20 PM
The Knights prepare for combat. Jass Casts haste on the Group. Vedik casts his Elemental summoning and the room is suddenly very crowded. Then Dwight Flings open the door.

In the room beyond the group first sees 4 skeletons all wearing full plate armor. Wielding Bastard swords and shields. When the door opens they all set in a guard position.

Behind them is what has to be the Lich. At its feet is an old woman, bound hand and foot sobbing on the floor. When the door opens the Lich casts its readied spells.

Between The skeletons and the Lich a fiendish creature appears. Great bat wings and four arms dominate the oily black furred body. A Hyenas head with goats eyes that are ablaze with hate stare out. The hands end in bird talons. A great viper is in place of a tail and steam whaffs from its pours shrouding it in mist. Then the creature and the skeletons all appear to be moving faster.

All who see the Pariah must make a Will Save DC 35 or attack it in place of anything else. You are not forced to attack, but if you choose to attack and fail the save it must be your target.

Here is the Map

Dwight looks at the various enemies and hones in on the Pariah, despite the party's idea to focus purely on the Lich.

The elemental leaps through the doorway, and hones in on the Pariah as well. Having to squeeze through the door, leaves it no time for a full charge, so it flies to within range of the Pariah and reaches over the skeleton guards with his long limbs.

Vedik follows behind the Elemental. He is able to shrug off the lure of attacking the Pariah, and for a moment contemplates attacking the Lich. All thoughts of that end when he sees the bound woman.

Mac waits to be teleported when Monthor gives the word, but he seems to be focused on the Pariah right now.

Jass turns incorporal and moves thorugh the wall and is also appalled by the site of the Pariah.

Monthor gives the code word and He, Tratain and Mac are all teleported up near the Lich.

Dwight searches his memories for any information regarding this creature but can't come up with anything, that lack of knowledge however does not stop two of his arrows from connecting with the Monster.

Belkior takes advantage of his cover to activate his bead of Karma.

Vedik orders his Lightning Elemental towards the Pariah and it swings at it but the creature blocks the attack. Vedik then casts a wall of force to separate the Lich from the Old woman.

Tratain Takes a step towards M'ri and Lashes out with his sword and Manages to connect three times. Upon each impact though the old woman on the ground screams in Pain and clutches her body in the exact locations the protectors sword has struck!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Skeletons having a great big target right next to them go to work.
Skeletons 3 and 4 chop away and the Huge Elemental. (S3 Hits ACs 38,32,46 for 26, 26, 22 Damage. S4 Hits ACs 42,45,37 for 29,27,31 Damage)

Skeletons 1 and 2 drop back next to the Pariah when the big elemental goes down.

The Pariah roars and Mac and brings down both of its talons together trying to smash the Minotaur into the ground but Mac just manages to slip out of the way.

The Lich cackles madly at those closest to her and is gone in an instant (Quickened Dimension Door) and appears on the other side of the Wall. She then casts another spell and Vedik disappears.

Vedik reappears out of the Maze spell just a few seconds after he entered.

The Rest of the nights all combine their attacks and slay the Pariah. Mac's and Monthor slash at it. Dwights arrows mostly find their mark in its tough hide, Jass's Chain lightning electrifies it and arcs off into the skeletons. It howls in rage as it is sent back to wherever it was summoned from.

Belkiors Holy smite strikes the Skeletons and the Lich. Once again, the Lich seems unfazed by the attack and at the instant the spell struck it the old woman writhes on the ground and screams in pain.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Skeleton 1 Takes a 5 foot step towards Mac and attempts to hit him with its Bastard sword. Striking the Minotaur three times. Once a Critical for 44 Damage, 23 Damage and 21 Damage.

Skeleton 2 moves in a strikes at Mac as well but misses him.

Skeleton 3 takes a step towards Monthor and attacks the dwarf three times and only connects once for 20 damage.

Skeleton 4 triece to Dice up Mac as well and hits him for 26 damage.

M'ri still doesn't look worried and summons another creature from the Abyss. A Nalfeshnee appears in the Back of the room and Moves towards those in the Back. It tries to take a bite out of Jass but barely misses the sorcerer. A strange light begins to swirl around it.

She then casts a Quickened Disintigrate at Vedik. 124 Damage Fort save DC 30 for 20 Damage.

Jass narrows his black eyes and uses his extensive knowledge to determine the spell that links M'ri with the woman. He shouts out his discovery to the others and adds "If we break or disrupt the link, we should be able to save the woman and deal with the lich, the evil git!"

And then the incorporal sorcerer has another problem on his hands. Jass isn't too worried about the demon as he is unlikely to be hurt in his current form. Nonetheless, he determines he should do something about the summoning spell.

Casting defensively to avoid an opening, he casts a targeted Greater Dispel Magic on the demon, Jass seeks to dispel the summoning and return it to the Lands of Unrest.

"I'm going to..." Mac is all ready to focus on the Lich and leave the bones for Tratain and Monthor, but Jass' call causes a moments pause. Unable to determine how this magic works, he leaves it in the hands of the more magically inclined and instead makes a flurry of swings at the Lich and skeletons.

OOC: Question -- I assume the Old Woman looks normal (not undead). Would it be considered evil to fire an arrow at her? My thought is that pain is switched between the two, or even that they have a image swap, so the Lich is really the woman and the woman the Lich. I'm willing to fire on the woman provided it's not an evil act. If I hit the woman, and the lich figure reacts then my thoughts are correct. Course if I hit the woman, and it kills her, I may have an emotional break-down. -- posted this to Private DM on Sat. then realized you likely can't see it as ADM.

Dwight, seeing the demon appear in front of him and then disappear, focuses his attention further out. The skeletons are busy, so Dwight tries to picture together the evil magicks between the woman and Lich. Seeing that damage to the Lich causes the woman pain, he aims at the woman hoping the opposite is true. (OOC: see note above, if the first arrow doesn't have the desired effect -- hurting the Lich, -- then remaining arrows go to skeletons.)

OOC: Course if the demon remains, it's all mute as I have not shot, and the demon gets the attacks.

Att #1: 51(crit? 48) - 4 (range) + 1 (haste) = 48 (45) (against woman/demon)
Dmg: 14 + 6 (holy) + 3(fire) + 9 (crit) = 23 (32 if crit) --- critically staggered (Feat?)

Att #4: 23 -- miss

Att #5 (haste): 49 - 4 + 1
Dmg: 11 + 8 + 3 = 22

OOC: If attacks go against demon, all "to hit" are 4 higher as he is close to Dwight.

Mac and Monthor put their blades to work and in a few seconds all of the skeletons are destroyed. Mac also takes a swing at the Lich, who doesn't seem to mind as the old woman screams in pain again. (I haven't figured in anyones DR, so if you've got some be sure to take it off.

Jass casts his Greater Dispel at the Demon in an attempt to send it back to its home plane, it seemed to flicker a little but something is keeping the creature from being sent back to its home plane.

Tratain hits M'ri with a Dimensional Anchor to keep the Lich from fleeing.

Vedik stands dazed, perhaps by the Disintigate just cast at him? Save from last round.

Belkior casts his healing spell hitting those he chooses, the old woman looks a little better.

Dwight thinks that the Old woman is really the Lich in Disguise, and fires an arrow at her that strikes her right in the heart, she slumps over unmoving and dwight has one horrified heartbeat until the body vanishes. Everyone Spellcraft DC 35 to Highlight to display spoiler: {From the way the body vanished the old woman was a conjuration spell, though one you have never seen before and not a real woman.}

The rest of Dwights Arrows strike the Demon and make it a little mad.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Demon Strikes back at Dwight. It attempts to bite him (AC 33 for 22 Damage). And tries to hit him with its claws. (AC 40 and 34 for 17 and 16 Damage)

M'ri looks a little unhappy now that her skeletons and other summons are gone, and a cloud of Mist springs up covering where she was just standing.

Jass wonders, but there are many magics out there, and in a thousand years, it could be the lich knows a couple that Jass does not. Eh, either way, the moving skeleton and her pet demon is going down.

"How about the direct approach?", the sorcerer asks rhetorically, as he sends a ray of Disintegration into the demon.

Shaking off the worst of the disintegrate, Vedik ponders, perhaps a bit too long.

He draws a rod, and uses it to cast a quickened spell on the mist, trying to dispel it. Unfortunately he is not able to overcome the lichs magic.

Barely missed by the bite (AC 34 when hasted), Dwight feels the demon is more than a mere distraction as he gets slapped around by the claws (dmg 33).

Dwight wishes he could follow Vedik's call, which all depends on if the demon still stands in his way.

If the demon still stands, he floats back 5' (out of reach) and fires arrows into it's torso having no other options.

The halfling cleric attempts to recognize the spell cast by the lich so as to be better able to counter it.
Spellcraft = 29, more than required to identify the spell

Jass Casts his Disintigrate at the Demon but it manages to shrug off most of the spell. (Saved)

Between Vedik and Belkior the Mist is disipated.

Dwight fires his arrows at the Demon and Manages to stagger it for 1 round.

Mac, Monthor and Tratain advance upon the Mist.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Nalfeshnee Swings at Dwight who is still in range and hits him with an Awesome Blow (Hits CMB 44 for 20 Damage, Dwight is slammed into the Door behind him and knocked prone)

From the Mist the Knights see another Demon who attempts to rip apart Mac and Monthor. The Creatures tries to claw and bite Monthor but the Dwarfs defenses are to strong so it switches to the Big Minotuar. (Mac is Hit Once for 18 Damage).

M'ri looking a bit worried now Puts Vedik in a Maze again as he seems to be the one calling the shots.

"The demon is a distraction, get the lich", Jass mimics sarcastically as Dwight goes flying. The light show about the demon is continuing to glow and there is only a incorporal sorcerer and halfling cleric in the demon's way.

"And since Belkior is concentrating on the lich, it's my job to keep the demon looking at me." Jass lets the demon have it with a Cone of Cold (aiming to avoid Belkior) and then follows up with a Quickened Magic Missle (which only affects incorporal beings)

OOC: My initial thought since I'm hasted, was that I can active my boots of teleportation, and then fire one arrow. Course having just re-read the rules, I realize this is wrong. Thus some of my first rolls are not used.

Dwight is taken aback by his pounding, gives the demon a frighteningly cheerful halfling smile as he loads his bow again. A small dribble of blood is seen dripping from his nose from the wall impact. "Time to know what it feels like when a porcupine rolls on you."

OOC: If Jass killed the demon already, Dwight moves to F12, full movement - hasted

Att #1: 50 -4 (prone) + 1(haste) +1 (point blank) = 48

Att #5 (hasted): 40 - 4 + 1 + 1 = 38
Dmg: 9 + 9 + 3 + 1 + 1 = 23

When the demon falls, Dwight makes haste towards F12.

Mac swings away at the Demon in front of him, opening large gashes across the beast.

Vedik is lost in the Maze spell.

Monthor Teleports himself behind M'ri

Tratain steps up to try and finish the Demon but can't seem to connect with it.

Jass Hits his Demon with a Cone of Cold which the beast takes full on, he looks angry, but only for a second as Dwight hits it with several more arrows and the beast falls over and dissipates.

The Demon looking like its on its last legs swings away madly at the Minotaur that hurt it so badly.
It his Mac with one of its Pincers for 19 Damage, The Bites him for 16 Damage. The hit Claws him twice for 18 Damage and 18 Damage.

M'ri fires off a Crackling black ray at Monthor but misses the Dwarf.

Mac looks to call in support - deciding that the best way to get Monthor's back from here is to clamber over/through the corpse... once it is a corpse.

Dwight grins, happy with himself as one demon falls and another is request to become a pin cushion. As his loads his bow and takes aim, he recalls how this is similar to how Dwight joined the group of Grey Knights to begin with -- battling demons (though the group was also morphed into demons) at the time.

Knowing the distance is going to be great, Dwight holds onto hope. (if demon falls, then attacks are another -4 to hit M'Ri)

The dark taur is gladdened to see the myriad of magic missile scores and arrows.
Mac attempts to stomp 10' through hopefully fallen and dissipating demon to flank M'ri with Monthor. If the move (at speed 60') leaves room for it, he takes a swing at M'ri for good measure - 1:[41|miss] - or not...

Jass Fires his Magic Missile's At the Demon and it keels over and dissipates, sent back to where it came from. His Missile's directed at M'ri however are stopped by her shield spell.

Vedik Finds his way out of the Maze spell.

M'ri screams "This is Impossible!" as the attacks of Dwight, Monthor and Mac connect and shred the Lich who was now minion less. She is just a Pile of Bones and gear on the ground now.

Our stalwart adventurers have defeated another lich. They now stand alone in the hallway.

No longer in combat rounds.

Jass comes out of his self-examination and nods. "Let us meet your pet lich, then", he says with a glimmer of his old humor back.

"Do we teleport out of here, or are we going to wind our way through the undead deathless horde in the foyer?" Jass is all for teleporting, or more accurately, Dim Dooring 3 times to taxi the group back to the underground vault where the Gray Knights and Crimson Shields first met each other. From there, they will be free of the horde and castle, and able to go where they need.

the group has in hand 5 of the 8 needed soulgems. 1 is almost certainly with the second dread lord, Bas Anut, who spoke of aidin the Knights in thier first encounter. Another is probably in possession of Pindar, who fled from one of the last fights, but his whereabouts are a complete mystery and the last has to be connected in some way with the Draco lich as that gem was also never found after battlig the dead dragon. Of all of them, only the location of Bas Anut is known, he waits within the Parthanon north of the mansion where the knights are currently about 700' away. Assuming of course that he is indeed still waiting.

thr group seems to be inclined to follow Dwight's idea and head to the Parthanon. The devil is always in the details, as Jass reminds the group of the horde in the foyer, not a force any seem inclined to want to deal with on any level. the Sorceror suggest Dimensional Door to the mausoleum where the two groups first met and journey out from there....

With Monthor singing an old dwarven marching tune, Jass takes that as agreement to his plan.

He Dim Doors the Crimson Shields to the entrance to the Mausoleum, DDs back, and DDs a third time with the Gray Knights, thus having the group bypass the horde. "The advantage to a sorcerer", he grins.

"You Gray Knights know the path to the Parthenon", he jibes, "lead on, McDuff!"

"One fight at a time..." Mac recalls out loud as they move along. "But I guess it would be naive to hope for a magicless combat in this place?"

To the Parthanon
Thursday April 7th, 2011 10:52:11 PM
The group moves quietly and fairly quickly to within view of the Parthanon. To the party's right in the ancient and twisted grove of trees that was once a beautiful orchard, they can still hear Plyf's voice locked in song. She still sounds strong and sure the the melody is one of love and fills all with a sense of a greater belonging. Ahead, about 50' lie the first of the 20 marble steps leading up and into the massive parthanon. Still completely shielded on it interior by a grey swirling mist. the party is about halfway between the north and south end, approaching from the west. The building itself measures nearly 200' from end to end and is 50' wide and the group already knows that once inside that grey wall of nothing the structure is completely open to the sky. they also know that one of the Dread lords and his undead guard are somewhere within. An undead lord who self reported wanted to help, but one of course must consider the source of such claims.

It has been 30 minutes from the end of the last fight. Please note the time lapse to all spells

Tratain and Mac on me. If things go sour, we'll use the "Rose Bud" manouver. Who's taking diplomatic point to to talk to the dread?

Dwight follows along keeping and eye out for anything that may have changed. "The remaining Lich may be desssparate by now and fled to get our friendly Lichesss," which Dwight says with complete sacrasm. "If thisss isss the cassse we definitely ssshould focusss on the one that fled. I don't trussst the other, but not attacking him initially might make our battle easssier -- for now," he adds.

As they approach, Dwight looks for those watchful eyes again.

"If talking to the lich can work, I'm a convincing speaker", Jass volunteers. "At the least, it should point us to where the other liches are. And if it doesn't, we can always kill him and take his Soul Gem."

Jass waits for Mac, Monthor, and Tratain to lead and strides confidently after them, his dead eyes focused to confront this "friendly" lich.

Inside Parthanon
Monday April 11th, 2011 9:00:21 PM
The group moves and ascends the steps unmolested and passes through the misty veil and into the Parthanon. 4 great bronze braziers glow with a dull yellow and green sick smoke. Suspended in midair about 30' up and spaced evenly down the center of the great structure. To the north stands the lich self identified as Bas Anut 100' away. About 50' stand 4 large skeletal creatures. next to Anut stand two more. At the opposite end in the south stands the lich the group was fighting not so long ago, also 100' away and another cadre of 4 large skeletons stand between the group and him. He, unlike Bas Anut, does not have any personal skeletal guard. Within the Parthanon, the outside world is plain as the bright day, but the sweet song that Plyf sings, cannot be heard. However other, more disturbing sounds do drift in on the wind. The distant sound of cracking bone and ripping flesh. Oily feathers beating hard against the wind. The slow creaking of rope pulled tight over a dead piece of wood.

Nothing within moves, it is apparently up to one of the living to act first.

Dwight expects a portion of this to be an illusion, but isn't going to just stand and do nothing. He loads his bow, and moves 10' to the side of the large parthanon awaiting a word of caution from his comrades who might identify the trap/illusion.

If nothing is said suggesting he not (and he waits as he slides over loading his bow), he fires before the giant vulture arrives. He aims at the Lich the group fought recently, unsure if he is actually there.

Att: 35 - 4 (distance) = 31
Dmg: 9 + 7(holy) + 1(fire) = 17

(OOC: I'm guessing only one attack -- as I need to know what happens before I fire again.)

Jass doesn't hesitate, the plans of the encounter already identified. He strides maybe 10 feet beyond Mac, Monthor and the others, and speaks, pitching his voice to be heard throughout the Parthenon.

"You know our mission and you know what we intend to do. The last three Soul Gems are with you two, the only two liches left. Surrender yours and the Dracolich's Soul Gems, or we will fight you for it."

Jass' black eyes watch the two liches carefully, assessing his use of diplomacy and intimidation equally. Any information the dead spellcasters may reveal could be used by the heroes...

Bas' Anut straightens at Jass's words. "It is as you say." His words come slow and measured. "Surely there could be combat between us, to determine who will control the Soul Gems. But that will likely get neither of us what we so desire."

Bas' Anut remains silent for a few moments before continuing. "I must congratulate you all. You have done well, and even arrived here quicker than expected. But, Gray Knights, it is time for you engage in your final mission. Turn over all of the gems to me, that I might open the portal to the Dread Master, that you may end the threat to your lands."

Bas' Anut stands in a fixed position awaiting your response showing no aggression.

Jass smiles a grim grin, and responds matter-of-factly. "I see you take me for a fool. You know we are the heroes and you are not to be trusted. We will do what we say while you will stab us in the back at first opportunity. We know this and you know this and based on us both knowing, we should be able to both get what we want."

Jass begins holding up fingers, counting off points. "One, we want to kill the Dread and need to summon it with the eight Soul Gems to get to him. Therefore WE need all eight.

"Two, you and Pindar there want to survive this day, and the only way you will do that is if you give us all three remaining Soul Gems and then run. Therefore, YOU don't need any of them.

"Three..." and Jass pauses as if considering and then continues on. "Nope, there isn't a three. You give us the gems or you die. I think I'll give you 12 seconds to decide."

"Ah, you could destroy me, for a time at least. Then spend years in possesion of all of the soul gems trying to figure out how to open the portal. Of course there is always a chance I'll part at least one or two of you from your souls before you slay me temporarily.". The undead dread smiles smuggly, his red eyes glowing with an eerie luminence.

"But the truth is, while you are all of little consequence to me, and of little more than an inconvience even if you vanquish me. I truly wish to see you suceed, as I despise none more than the dread master. Give me the Soul Gems and you will be ready to face the dread master in moments. I will even give you something to assist you in that battle. You will need all the assistance you can get "

Only worry what should happen should you not uphold your end of any bargain we strike. What benefits indeed. Know that it will be, in no way, malicious and will assist you, not hinder you."

Jass listens for insights into Ba'Anut's speak. He speaks in a very methodical manner, only divulging what information he wants the Gray Knights to know. You find nothing that he says to seem untruthful.

there are two liches in the room. One is Bas'Anut, the one we made a psudo bargain with. The other is the one that got away. That one is at the other end of the room, presumably watching us talk about his dealth?

"Show us your 3 Soul Gems, and we'll show you ours." states Jass. The sorcerer is confident that Vedik or others who have True Seeing can verify whether any gems Bas/Anut shows the group are indeed real.

He also keeps an eye on the other lich, the one that got away. Is it worth slaying the Dread and allowing two lesser but still powerful liches free to work thier will? Jass shrugs. Yes, yes it is.

OOC: No, the first part of the response was an ambigious response to the Soul Gem. When B'A said, "Do you think I would make an offer that I could not complete? Do not worry about what must be done for me to uphold my end of the bargain." he was referring to the Soul Gems. What that means is up for debate. I'm sorry that wasn't clear.[

Also, yes, there are two liches in the room, Bas' Anut and Pindar. It is obvious he is not happy about being here, but even more obvious he doesn't want to upset Bas' Anut. Anymore questions just let me know. IC post will come later tonight once I see if there are any more IC posts from you guys.

Jass looks at Monthor, Vedik, and the others. "I don't trust them", he says in a low voice, his dead black eyes a haunting reminder of what the sorcerer experienced as a ghost himself. "They are undead and filled with hatred and destructive energy. I say we kill them now and figure out how to use the Gems ourselves."

The sorcerer, however, doesn't make any move. It's not up to him to decide if the leaders take his advice or not. Jass waits for the decision of someone else.

Dwight wonders why Pindar doesn't speak up. As a general statement he comments on his lack of comment before the party makes a full commitment. "Okay, ssso we work with B'Anut, as ssstated, but what of the other? If he isss only adding to our risssk, perhapsss he ssshould be finished first!"

OOC: Dwight addressed Pindar last post, but did not receive a response.

"Ssso before we hand thessse gemsss over to you, letsss get an idea of what isss going to happen and what we will sssee. Potential weaknessssssesss, particular ssstrengthsss etc. of thisss Dread Lord. You perform sssome ritual and...."

OOC: Dwight figures even if B'Anut wants to become the new Dread Lord, it's in his best interest to help the Knights.

"I speak for him not just myself." Bas' Anut says motioning to Pindar. "He will do as I say. Also, do you think that I do not know how many soul gems you have. I never said I only had one gem. Give me the five that you have so that I may begin the ritual."

Bas' Anut as if to set minds at ease, pulls out the three gems and holds them in the palms of his bony hands. A little magic pulses through his hands and the gems levitate out of his hands so that all three of them can be clearly seen.

"Do we have a deal, or not".

"Deal", says Jass, and turns to the halfling witch to produce the other 5 Gems.

"Very well. We will give you five gems. You will then open the portal to the Dreads realm, so we can destroy it. You will then withdraw from the affairs of this plane, and pursue your studies."

DM Post
Thursday April 21st, 2011 6:15:04 PM
Bas' Anut takes the five Soul Gems as they are given, allowing them to levitate in the air with the other three. "You have chosen wisely. This will take several hours. Prepare yourselves or watch as you will. But the portal will ony stay open for a short time, be ready when it opens. Pindar, I need your assistance in this matter. Come."

At the command of come Pindar disappears... or rather, the image of him does. After a few seconds you see him floating down from behind the group. "I hope you understand, it was nothing personnel, strictly business, I assure you." Pindar has a slight smile on what passes for his face.

After a few moments Bas' Anut and Pindar begin performing the ritual to open the portal. Pindar takes control of the levitation keeping the Soul Gems in the air, rotating in a clockwise manner as Bas' Anut begins drawing hexes, graces and other arcane symbols on the ground. They continue in this manner for several hours, neither pausing, aside from Bas' Anuts occasionaly vocal incantations as he draws another symbol upon the ground.

After nearly three hours Bas' Anut looks to the group. "It is time, the portal shall soon be opened. Steel yourself for what you shall face inside. I will be honest, the odds of your success are slight indead. But as I said before, I will give you a boon if you desire. I also understand if you do not wish any more of my assistance."

Bas' Anut seems genuinely concerned as he speaks. He obviously wants little more than to be rid of the Dread Lord.

OOC: If you have any last minute things you need to take care of, castings etc, feel free to do them. Likewise if you have anymore questions ask them, otherwise he will continue withe ritual.

Helpful Feats:

As the ritual is being prepared, Dwight offers some thoughts (and prayers) to Ebryron. Not a typical action for him, but Dwight feels this is his last battle and wishes to call in all his outstanding favors.

Also, can we get a map. I'm thinking we can strategically place ourselves to try to avoid some of the area effect spells.

He gives the summons the following instructions. "Champions of the planes. Ignore these liches, a greater threat stands before us. Beyond this portal is the Dread himself. I have called you to aid us in this fight. Elementals, disrupt any minions the Dread has with him. Archons, keep us healed, and be sure your mass heal spells attempt to harm the Dread as well. Do not hesitate, and thank you for helping us shoulder this burden."

He then turns to the group.

"I am ready."

The Portal is Opened
Monday April 25th, 2011 11:14:20 AM
Upon seeing the group prepared and ready, Bas'Anut contiunes to summon the portal. Bas'Anut approaches Pindar, who is still standing, looking up, with all eight Soul Gems levitating and slow circling in the air. Bas'Anut places both hands on either side of Pindar's head. As he does, electical currents begin pulsing from and through Pindar as he begins to scream. Bas'Anut backs away as Pindar's body begins to crumble to dust and is pulled into the circle of Soul Gems which begins to take a form as one.

The gate portal begins to come together, as the Soul Gems ripple across the air in front of the Knights. A sphere begins to form. It is a shimmering sphere of pale green and yellow, like the phlem of some creature that starts to ooze forth from tiny developing fissures in the sphere. The stench of rotting meat in the sun and baterial infection assails the nostrils and brings water to everyone's eyes. Whatever is beyond the portal, is is apparent that it will not simply open wide and that force will be needed to push through the sickness that lies in your path.

Bas'Anut backs away, a self satisfying smile upon his face. "It appears someone will have to force their way through to make a hole large enough for the others to pass."

"Ssseemsss the fight mussst be brought to him, ssso much for a full sssummon." Dwight looks to Tratain or Monthor to initiate movement.

And then the sorcerer follows the group into the portal.

Have the Elementals give a CMB check.

OOC: Bad time to lose count - 7 charges of CSW, not 8.

Mac lines up behind Monthor. Turning back to Dwight he asks, "If there is room to move on the other side, can I have the other Enlarge?"

Something has the taur ill at ease. Floating about the skies of the Southern Continent is one thing, but leaving for who knows where with Bas'Anut as a doorman...? He strongly suspects the portal will be closing tight behind them, so surviving and defeating the Dread Lord will be the first priority, but he suspects there will be considerably more.

The Portal is Opened
Thursday April 28th, 2011 6:39:17 AM
The first elemental is able to push his way through the ooze and pus of the portal and create a small hole, just large enough for the second elemental to push through. Anyone who hurries can get through the portal before it closes, but it only stays open for about 6 seconds before closing up as it was before. It was obvious the elemental took quite a bit of damage and everyone fills as if they are choking and nauseous as they pass through the portal.

Fortitude Saves from all creatures passing through the portal.

If you choose not to pass through the portal with everyone else, I need to know that as well.

40 points of damage to the first elemental that bull rushed the portal.

Into the Dread
Thursday April 28th, 2011 9:43:27 PM
Beyond the puss and hanging rotten meat of the portal lies a broken and charred expanse of earth. Stretching to the infinite in all directions under a brown and black sky so as to completely conceal the horizon. All about is the stagnant brown and brackish earth. A land where it seems as if nothing will ever change, nothing matters and to exist as life is pointless. Here you are beyond time, here you are lost and here you are trapped. Love, Hate, honor, Duty, loyalty, death, pain, fear and all else that makes up a mortal life are gone. Stripped away by this land of apathy.

There are no markers, nothing to distinguish direction and no reason to move in any direction. This side of the portal is no where to be seen.

When you left, Bas'Anut looked as if he truly hopes you succeeds.
