Smon: OK ready.

Oculus Orbus: If you get a chance to see a new tv show called The Expanse, you should do that. It's a lot like the XXVc setting
Smon: GM: You set camp east of the river. Rey: "Oooh! Lets all get into our sacks, and tickle our fancies!" "...Or did I get the wrong 'camp'?"
Oculus Orbus: Rags watches it, I believe
Oculus Orbus: heh heh
chris107: H keeps watch
chris107: at least to start
Oculus Orbus: is Tug along?
Smon: GM: The night passes peacefully, no sign of Terror the silver dragon that flew off in a huff.
chris107: Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Smon: (Bill is here though - his Madrid trip got cancelled).
chris107:
Oculus Orbus: aww, poor li'l guy
Kjato Ragfoot: Poor Bill.
chris107: OOC - Kjato lead us on
chris107: Hi Bill
Smon: He got flu too.
chris107: eek
Smon: Getting better now though.
Oculus Orbus: oh dear
Smon: He would log on but he's scoffing lemon drizzle cake.
chris107: I cancelled my Istanbul trip to play D&D with my chums
Oculus Orbus: Constantinople?
chris107: yup
Smon:
chris107: Can we kill something please?
Kjato Ragfoot: Right now, we should sleep. We are rather battered from the Marids.
Smon: The dawn comes up red to the south east over distant mount Chacban, home of the dwarves you love so well.
Smon: You have had a long rest.
Oculus Orbus: MArids are a kind of genie, correct?
chris107: HP's ?
Oculus Orbus: FULL HP
Oculus Orbus:
Oculus Orbus: Tug wakes with a monstrous yawn
chris107: Bugger! These are the worst interior designers ever!
Oculus Orbus: "I gotta go drain the pool. Back in a few minutes" Tug wanders off to the nearest big rock to whizz on.
Kjato Ragfoot: Chris: We can roll Hit Dice to regain HP
Smon: Hakeem was on 115/149, can recover 11/hd spent.
Smon: Or roll d12+5

Smon: dice I mean.
Smon: They were surges in 4e.
Oculus Orbus: I should be full HP, right?
Smon: Yeah, we'll say Tug is on full.
Smon: He got a few scratches fighting a water elemental, patched up now.
Oculus Orbus: I did what now?
Kjato Ragfoot: You danced a waltz with a water elemental while Thuruar and Hakeem had a slight quarrel with their Marid boyfriends.
Smon: You're on the east bank of the Greyrush River, where crossing it last evening you battled 2 Marids & their water elementals.
Oculus Orbus: oh dear
Smon: After the fight Terror the dragon was told to stop chasing the surviving surrendered Marid, he got angry & flew off.
Oculus Orbus: Well, I hope we sent those bums packin'
Smon: (Bill sends his apologies he really wants to play but computer isn't connecting to Internet)
Oculus Orbus: Dragons. What can ya do?
chris107:
Oculus Orbus: computer got the flu, too?
Oculus Orbus: KILL!
chris107: KILL!
Oculus Orbus: Hakeem, buddy! You're lookin fit.
Smon: Feani reckons you must be due west of the Goblin realm of Kukul. Jungle stretches off on all sides.
chris107: H lets Thur lead the way
Kjato Ragfoot: We should see to return to the elf realm. That means going east, through the goblin realm.
Oculus Orbus: "Gobblin' what?"
Smon: Feani nods. "Let's head east. When we hit the road I'll have a better idea where we are."
Kjato Ragfoot: "Do not worry, with some luck, we will not see any."
Smon: GM: You eventually break camp and set off into the forest...
Smon: Hakeem make a Survival (WIS +Prof) check.
Smon: You get a bonus as an Altanian AIR.
Oculus Orbus: "I'll gobble whatever ya got. I'm starvin'"
Oculus Orbus: AIR?
Smon: as I recall.

Smon: Dusk is falling when you come out on a rise overlooking the ancient raised highway where you first slew the T-Rex/Z-Rex.
Oculus Orbus: Hakeem keeps pushing his duties off on Thur
chris107:
Smon: Feani: "I reckon we're a few miles north of Kukul."
chris107: Hakeem just KILLS.
Oculus Orbus: "What the heck happened here? Looks like a slaughterhouse blew up"
Kjato Ragfoot: Oh. There was a big lizard that thundered along and killed plenty orcs.
Smon: You soon spot the tattered remnants of the orc patrol, now scattered by scavengers. Camping here, attacking Kukul, etc?
chris107: grrrrr
Smon: Feani: "The faerie grotto was near here - but I doubt we'll find it unless they want us to..."
chris107: computer really slow
Kjato Ragfoot: Well, we do not want to attack Kukul. We just want to kill Moroth's governnor and then run away, while the goblins plunder and celebrate, eating all the tribute for Nerath.
7:43pm 2016-2-17 DESTROYERBILL Has entered the room
Smon: Hi Bill!
Oculus Orbus: "What't a kukul?"
Oculus Orbus: *What's
chris107: DESTROYERBILL!
Oculus Orbus: Yay, Bill!
Kjato Ragfoot: Kukul is a city. Probably also some idol the goblins worship, too.
Kjato Ragfoot: Hello Bill
Smon: Suddenly you see a fiery cloud approaching from the west, out of the setting sun! It skims over the treetops towards you...
Kjato Ragfoot: Let's continue on our way toward the elves. We still have plenty loot to sell and Feani to return.
Oculus Orbus: "Okay, let's get t' where we need ta be without no fuss"
Smon: The cloud descends rapidly, landing on the highway just ahead!
Kjato Ragfoot: Oh. It seems Hakeem gets to kill something. IF he can jump high enough.
chris107: Hakeem growls and draws Bloodleter
Smon: There is a fiery flash and an enormous red-skinned, horned humanoid stands there, wielding a massive scimitar.
chris107: HACK-HACK-HACK!
Kjato Ragfoot: That probably is Kukul.
chris107: Rage! Berserk
DESTROYERBILL: hello im a efrete thanks for killing those things \ its me /

Smon: The Efreet points back towards where you fought the Marids, smiling happily.
Oculus Orbus: Terror, ya big nut!
chris107: eek
Smon: Alicia Scarnetti mutters: "Things are a lot stranger here than down south..."
Kjato Ragfoot: Probably side effects of the Dark Sun gate.
Smon: Alicia: "If you say so, Thuruar."
Kjato Ragfoot: Well, I used to live even further north and have never met so many elementals in such short notice before.
Smon: The Efreet's expression does remind Tug a bit of Terror, but it's a different creature, being man-shaped, though much larger.
Smon: Feani looks warily at the Efreet. "Er... hello."
DESTROYERBILL: hello
Oculus Orbus: Oh, I thought Terror said "it's me" but I see it now
DESTROYERBILL: hello#

Smon: Feani: "That's a lot closer than we are now..."
chris107: Yorkshire home not Bath home
Smon: Alicia: "Don't teleport us inside the volcano, ok? Just to the rim?"
Kjato Ragfoot: Well. Let's do that.
8:03pm 2016-2-17 chris107 Has exited the room
Kjato Ragfoot: Please teleport us near the volcano.

DESTROYERBILL: hello
Smon: You find yourselves in very hot, dark chamber, the north side open to a rift in which molten lava glows.
DESTROYERBILL: hello
Smon: You are all disoriented by a lurching sensation.
Smon: On the south side of the chamber (which is 30' deep & 50' wide) is a great stone door, flanked by two very surprised looking flaming snake-creatures bearing tridents - Salamanders!
Oculus Orbus: "What the-"
Kjato Ragfoot: Hakeem, it seems the Efreet likes you!
Oculus Orbus: heh heh
8:08pm 2016-2-17 Amalric Has entered the room
Smon: The Salamanders glare at the Efreet, lowering their tridents. "You! Inferno the Efreet! These Halls are ours now! Begone!"
Smon: Hi Graham.
Kjato Ragfoot: Hello Graham
Oculus Orbus: Big G!
Smon: The group travelled east in the jungle, met an Efreet, asked to be teleported to a ledge beside a volcano... he complied.
Kjato Ragfoot: We will be directly on our way, just point us toward the exit near the jungle and we are out of your hair.
Amalric: evening, sorry I'm late, the Great Eastern Crusade against technology in our house kicked off again
DESTROYERBILL: no
Amalric: wife is a pain in the behind sometimes, but at least she picked on our eldest tonight instead!

Kjato Ragfoot: Wow.
Oculus Orbus: boo yah!
Smon: Alicia blows smoke from her finger and grins.
Amalric: haha!
Oculus Orbus: haha
Smon: Hakeem can climb out using the rope held by Tug.
Chris107: Yay!
Amalric: Rey ponders shoving Tug in too
Oculus Orbus: ?
Amalric: then remembers he's not evil, and these guys are on his side
Oculus Orbus: !
Amalric: wrong campaign
Chris107: H clambers up if he can?
Kjato Ragfoot: (Not to mention that, if Rey tried to shove Tug, it would probably result in Rey bouncing back)
Oculus Orbus: yeah, that's a lot of Giff meat to move
Amalric: (and that, Kjato!)
Smon: Hakeem scrambles back up onto the ledge/chamber.
Oculus Orbus: woo hoo!
Smon: While you catch your breath a moment, Thuruar completes the Banishment.
Amalric: "Did you take any bread down there with you, H? I havent eaten a nice piece of toast in ages."
Smon: Seems you may be in luck - no sign of more salamanders - yet.
Oculus Orbus: (Tug gently pats out Hakeem's burning biscuits)
Smon: Alicia wipes soot from her brow. "I'm going to KILL that bloody Efreet!"
Oculus Orbus: "Yeah, that wuz a rotten thing ta do to a guy"
Kjato Ragfoot: "Indeed. We should summon him into the palace of the ice queen or something nefarious like that."
Oculus Orbus: or KILL HIM!
Smon: You notice that the dead salamander has a back quiver with 4 jagged-tipped javelins.
Oculus Orbus: "Let's us get the heck away from this here cliff, yeah?"
Kjato Ragfoot: Good idea, but plunder the salamander first.
Smon: You move away from the ledge, into the chamber with its single basalt door in the opposite wall.
Kjato Ragfoot: Can we take the javelins along?
Smon: Feani shudders: "I fear the treacherous Efreet has left us deep inside the volcano wall..."
Smon: Thuruar checks out the javelins - the heads are stylised lightning strikes.
Smon: Thuruar can take them.
8:52pm 2016-2-17 Smon Has exited the room
Oculus Orbus: "Only one way to find out. Let's get movin"
Kjato Ragfoot: Indeed.
Oculus Orbus: I assume Hak need some healing
Kjato Ragfoot: Tug, take those javelins with you in case the magic in your wand depletes.
8:52pm 2016-2-17 Smon Has entered the room
Smon: Is Tug taking the javelins?
Oculus Orbus: "Oh, uh... this ain't, uh... right."
Smon: (I can play to 10pm BTW)
Oculus Orbus: yes
Smon: OK, 4 javelins of lightning.
Smon: Tug takes the javelins then pushes open the heavy door.
Oculus Orbus: "Not my weapon o' choice, but it'll do in a pinch, I reckon"
Smon: It opens into a 10' wide tunnel winding south, lit by a dim red eldritch glow.
Oculus Orbus: Anybody wanna scout ahead?
Amalric: no?
Smon: You follow the tunnel south some 90' until it ends at a second basalt door, this one etched with runes in the fiery Ignal tongue.
Smon: Can anyone read the Ignan language?
Oculus Orbus: "Ahh, one o' you might wanna have a look at this"
Amalric: is that Rey's bedchamber?
Kjato Ragfoot: It probably says "Runes of Fire" and explodes if you read it.
Oculus Orbus: "Good thing I can't read it, then"
Smon: Looks like it opens inwards, there is a large knob.
Amalric: "I can't read it....not from here. Or anywhere."
Amalric: that's Tug
Amalric:
Oculus Orbus: "I got yer knob right here"
Kjato Ragfoot: Thuruar will cast "Resistance" on whoever is willing to open the door.
Amalric: "Go try it then, Nobby."
Amalric: "Big lunk like you, whats the worst that could happen?"
Oculus Orbus: "Fine, I'll give it a go"
Smon: The door grinds open, revealing a large, ornately decorated bedchamber wreathed in greenish incense.
Oculus Orbus: (Chris, are you still here?)
Oculus Orbus: "Bedroom. And it stinks"
Amalric: "Definitely mine."
Smon: The bed is a huge marble slab in the southwest corner, on which lies an enormous salamander, twice the size of the guards, contentedly breathing in the green smoke from a brazier.
Smon: There is another door to your right, at the west end of the north wall.
Oculus Orbus: "Thur, waddya say?"
Smon: I'll say Rey & Tug are in front and have Surprised the Salamander King - it turns blearily in their direction, an iron crown askew on its great orangey pate.
Smon: "WHU...?!"
Amalric: Attack!!
Smon: Rey & Tug can do attacks now if they want.
Kjato Ragfoot: I would say we go through the door once we killed that salamander.

Smon: "I shall DESTROY YOU ALL!"

Smon: The Salamander King is rising up - it must be 20' long, massively muscled, its trident alone a good 12'...
Oculus Orbus:
Smon: Rey can try to finish the wounded one, or flee before the King reaches him?
Smon: Or attack then flee past Thuruar?

Oculus Orbus: http://taxidermicowlbear.weebly.com/uploads/2/3/7/4/23742956/5562773_orig.jpg
Kjato Ragfoot: Yes.
Amalric: we had a TPK in Runelords when one member (me) was absent/late, lets not do it again
Smon: OK let's stop now.
Smon: BTW I had no idea you'd end up in this dungeon this week.

Oculus Orbus: Thank Bill for us, will you?
Smon: I'll tell him how grateful you are.
Oculus Orbus: ha
Amalric: if you want to wake him up during the night while wearing a hockey mask and wielding a chainsaw, be my guest
Smon:
Smon: Just now getting him to bed he tried to sleep walk out the front door thinking it was his bedroom.
Kjato Ragfoot: Bill is probably to young to understand that costume and simply mumble "daddy, it is to dark to play hockey."
Smon: Luckily failed.
Smon: He's totally zonked out, nothing would register.
Smon: OK I'll post log.
