chris107: Graham, we need your specialist skills tonight...
Amalric: I'm afraid you can only have Rey's
chris107: hehe
chris107: that'll do
Amalric: not much difference really
Smon:
Smon: It's up to Rey to save the beautiful, naked, well endowed elven princess!
Amalric: dirty job, but someone has to do it
chris107: who's been kidnaped by the wicked cigar smoking Dwaf
Kjato Ragfoot: While you are at it, you could liberate the cigars as well.
Amalric: something for everyone?
Smon:
Kjato Ragfoot: Well, I am not sure what Hakeem would do with a dwarf.
chris107: This stuff is way out of Hakeems comfort zone
Smon: @Thuruar in your hands the enchanted shortsword Aeanor crafted for you acts as a Disruption weapon - 2d6 radiant damage to undead, targets w under 25 hp left DC 15 Wis save or be destroyed. On save are Frightened until end of your next turn. Sheds bright light 20' & dim light another 20' r.
chris107: He hasn't killed anything in weeks.
chris107:
Kjato Ragfoot: Whoa...
chris107: very nice
Amalric: pass them around!
Smon: Also works on fiends.
chris107: Like Rey?
Kjato Ragfoot: So, basically with that sword in hand, Thuruar is a Neo-Nerathi's worst nightmare?
Smon: LOL
Smon: It should be nasty vs Neo-Nerathi undead, yes.
chris107: Yay Kjato! Let's go do war upon the Nerathi right now!
Smon: GM: >>chris107: We will need to leave some of our number in a place of safety while we rescue the princess. How far is it to the lair of these kidnappers? Smon: Feani: "Two days, if we pass by the Hall of the Laer and are not attacked by the Cultists. I have been informed that many of the Gungli Ma have been seen recently in the Laer Hills." chris107: Could four of us flit there and back under the cover of the elven cloaks? Smon: Laara is looking uncomfortable. "Hakeem? May I speak with you?" chris107: Whilst our friends remain here in safety.. Smon: Laara tugs at Hakeem's shoulder. chris107: "Of course Laara. I would welcome your opinion." Smon: Queen Cildarith: "Yes. Speak." Smon: Laara crimsons as she suddenly finds herself the centre of attention. She gulps: "Y-your majesty..." Smon: "... Our mission is to close the Gate of the Black Sun. If we fail, our people will die! Your sister... I think she is not in immediate danger. I think we should rescue her only when the Gate is closed." Smon: The Queen frowns: "No. Every moment she spends in the arms of that beast sickens me! I would rather she be dead than this..." she waves at the font. chris107: "And how far are we from Morthor's lair?" chris107: "Will 5 days make a difference Laara?" Smon: Feani: "I don't know exactly... I have not been past Kukul, a city of Goblins north of Chacban, on the southern edge of Morthor's realm. A few days, I think." chris107: "We have made good time so far after all." Smon: Laara shrugs. "We can't know, either way..." Smon: Cildarith: "Feani, Thuruar, Hakeem, Lord Reynard - bring my sister home."<<
Amalric: sounds like a plan
Kjato Ragfoot: We actually had two plans: http://www.dragonsfoot.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=70130&start=330#p1699489
chris107: you beat me to it Kjato
Amalric: pick the simple one
Smon: You also beat me to it Kjato
Smon: So Queen Cildarith wants to send Feani, Thuruar, Hakeem, & Lord Reynard with the Elven Cloaks to Chacban to rescue her sister Valadai.
chris107: H is happy to go along
chris107: Though he's pretty sure that the other dwafs will not be pleased that one of their number has kidnaped an elven princess
chris107: H tries to squeeze his broad frame into the puny elf cloak
Kjato Ragfoot: Oh. Right. We will asks the elves what the usual relation between elves and dwarfs is - is it common that one side enslaves the other?
Smon: Feani: "We can make our preparations for the journey and leave at dawn tomorrow?"
Smon: The Queen shakes her head to Thuruar. "No. They have many human females, but have never dared enslave an Elf of Anatal!"
Amalric: "Bloody dwarves."
chris107: "I could always call him out of his hole and beat the living crap out of him until he gives her back and makes reperations."
Smon: Are you going to follow the plan of just the 4 of you going, while Amdor Alicia & Laara stay in Anatal?
Kjato Ragfoot: Well, if he has more wisdom than the average dragonfly, he'll pepper you with bolts from inside his hole.
chris107:
chris107: Even H's tiny brain knows it will do no good to our cause by starting a war between elf and dwarf
chris107: Sneaking in like thieves can not be right
chris107: (No offence Rey)
Amalric: (none taken!)
Amalric: yes, just the four of us
Kjato Ragfoot: Well, either of our plans means we can take everyone along.
chris107: What about going in like men. And see how the land lays with them?
chris107: See if they are aware of the princess been there?
Kjato Ragfoot: OK. Let's follow Hakeems plan.
Smon: Everyone is going, inc Laara Amdor & Alicia?
Kjato Ragfoot: It is the first time his plans do not involve killing everybody and we should reward that.
chris107: hehe
chris107: Maybe we should leave L, A and Al here until we are sure?
Kjato Ragfoot: No. They basically ensure we will tread lightly not to endanger them.
chris107: okay, fair comment
Smon: So you bring them?
Amalric: leave them!
chris107: Let us be off.
chris107: 1-3 leave them
Kjato Ragfoot: ((Replacing "Blindness" with "Enhance Ability"))
chris107 rolls 1d6 and gets: 5,
Smon: (OK)
Kjato Ragfoot: (If we just go to the dwarfs to negotiate for the release of the princess, there is no reason to leave our party behind.)
Smon: 26/4/4446 Dawn the next day, fully rested, healed and on fresh mounts, you cross a bridge and head out of Anatal's northern gate.
chris107: H will leave the negotiating to Rey and Thur. He will just menace in the back ground
Smon: For fifteen miles you head north on the east bank of a steep river-vale, until Feani leads you down-slope and across a ford where glittering waters run over smooth grey-brown stones.
Smon: Up the western bank and onto a little-used path...
Smon: The hilly terrain is forested and wild, not too unlike Ghinaria.
Kjato Ragfoot: (as long as there are not as many Oriaxes as in the hills)
Smon: Feani: "The Laer hills... thirty miles to the Hall of the Laer. On these steeds we should make it before nightfall..."
chris107: Oriax
Kjato Ragfoot: Let us hurry then. I am sure, Anatal would like its princess back.
Smon: You have gone a couple miles west from the river when the track runs down into a clearing. Feani reins in her steed. "Something doesn't smell right..." her delicate nose wrinkles.
chris107: H whips out Bloodletter
Smon: She points - looking downslope through the trees into the clearing ahead, you see gnawed bones glisten white in the sunlight, gobbets of red flesh still hanging from them.
chris107: His barbarian senses alert to any danger
Smon: /roll d20
Smon rolls 1d20 and gets: 17,
Smon: Hakeem is the first to spot the purple-cloaked figures creeping towards you through the undergrowth on both sides.
chris107: What size?
Smon: Man-sized, cowled, they move with a strange bestial gate. Most carry Katar punch daggers in their hairy, oddly ape-like hands.
chris107: H sets his shield and readies his sword
Smon: Feani gasps: "The Crazed Cultists of Gungli Ma! Acolytes of Hanuman the Accursed!"
Kjato Ragfoot: Great. More insane cultists.
chris107: "They will die like any other."
chris107: (So ride past or attack chaps?"
Amalric: "Who'd have thought the wilderness would be such a dangerous place!"
Smon: Laara gasps and wheels her horse back up the slope behind you. Amdor does too: "Don't worry my dear, I'll protect you while these fellows deal with the frontal assault!"
Amalric: ride on
Amalric: or not
chris107: Bah
Smon: The Cultists close in, it would be tricky to ride past them.
chris107: can we gallop past these things?
Amalric: if those cowards have left us to the dirty work, lets do it
Smon: If you win init
Smon: roll init

Smon: Silence falls...
chris107: Hakeem grins. Happy to have done some killing
Smon: Feani looks over the slaughter of the battlefield. "You are great warriors indeed... Those stone giant maids were lucky you let them live!"
Kjato Ragfoot: Well, I do not like fighting.
Smon: She dismounts, kneels, and takes a crude copper amulet from the neck of the dead cult leader. "Gungli Ma, as I thought... the Conclave of the Laer will be glad to hear we have slain their foes."
chris107: Search them? Inspect the breatplate
Kjato Ragfoot: (Casting two 1st level Cure Spells on myself)
Kjato Ragfoot rolls 2d8+10 and gets: 6, 8, (+10) = 24
Kjato Ragfoot: 42/66 hp
Smon: The breastplate is of bronze, sized to fit the leader's wider than human barrel chest.
Smon: They have a few coins on them, 35gp in all.
chris107: light armour?
chris107: Barbarian sized?
Smon: Breastplate is medium, base AC 14
Smon: 14+2 (DEX)=16
chris107: No good to H then
Smon: Lower than your CON 20 unarmoured AC!
Amalric: "Sometimes a kiss solves all problems...though stone giantesses are perhaps a mere one-off."
Smon: Good bronze could be worth a couple hundred gp to the right buyer, though.
chris107: Yrah lets take it
Kjato Ragfoot: Lets sell the bronze plate then. We should be able to transport it.
Smon: Who's taking it on their horse?
chris107: H will
Smon: Thuruar, your arm where the ape-cultist bit you is starting to itch...
Smon: Feani looks concerned: "You were bitten? The bite of the Accursed Ones carries Madness... and Death. Or worse, to become like them..."
chris107:
Kjato Ragfoot: Great.
Smon: Feani: "But you are a Priest. Can your goddess help you?"
Amalric: "Will we notice any difference?"
chris107: hehe
Kjato Ragfoot: (I assume a Greater Restoration would solve the problem?)
Smon: Lesser Restoration (2nd level) can remove disease.
Kjato Ragfoot: For now, there is nothing I can but to protect myself from imminent death. I would need to pray for her support on removing such a powerful affliction as that.
Smon: Greater Restoration should hopefully be enough, yes!]
Smon: GM: Are you resting now, or pressing on to try to reach the Conclave of Laer by nightfall?
Kjato Ragfoot: Let's try to reach the Conclave.
chris107: press on
Smon: GM: OK, you mount up and press on swiftly through the hills.
Smon: /roll d6
Kjato Ragfoot: Also, Thuruar will cast Death Ward on himself to prevent dying on the way.
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 4,
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 3,
Smon: Dusk is falling as you top a rise and see ahead of you a substantial fortress, lights twinkling in the high keep windows.
Smon: Feani looks relieved; you can hear faint howls in the distance as the night-hunters move abroad. "The Conclave."
Kjato Ragfoot: I hope they offer hospitality, I would hate to sleep outdoors in these parts.
Smon: You approach the ancient palace-fortress; a horn blows from the watchers on the walls high above.
Smon: Feani whispers: "The mages of Karak who dwell here are friendly... One thing. Do not reveal you are a Priest, Fr Thuruar - they believe all Clerical magic is the work of Demons..."
Smon: You draw up before the high double gates. Feani calls up: "Feani of Onhir, with travellers - we have come far, Panti Chakar! Please let us in!"
chris107: Has Thur started growing thick dark hair yet?
Kjato Ragfoot: He always had thick dark hair. You just could not see it due to the helmet.
chris107: hehe
chris107: here he is
Smon: Feani whispers: "Panti Chakar is the wizard who commands the defences... the head of the Conclave is Dasmela Evli."
Smon: After a short time the gates open; a colourfully garbed and turbaned brown-skinned man beckons you in, smiling: "Welcome! Come in! How was the journey?"
Smon: Feani: "There was a battle - my friends have slain many of the Gungli Ma."
Smon: The man smiles broadly. "Excellent news! I am Panti Chakar, and who might you be, noble travellers?"
Smon: (will stop in a couple mins)
chris107: "Hakeem Greywolf."
Smon: "Greywolf! An Altanian! Excellent!"
Kjato Ragfoot: Thuruar.
Smon: "Thuruar? Excellent!"
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 5,
Smon: "Come on in, all of you! Bathe and wash your wounds before dinner!"
chris107: "Thankyou!"
Smon: OOC ok will stop there.
