STONEHELL CANYON
Smon: (OK Zagaar makes his way up to the entrance to the dark chamber #2 with a nice cuppa tea.
chris107: "Get in here Orc! We have work to do!"
Smon: The box canyon seems quiet since the thunderous blast of the thunderwave, but you suspect you are being watched from the lightless arrowslits of the curtain wall/gatehouse.
Smon: Sandro goes to take a break.
Prince Skylio: Zagaar sips his brew and holds strong eye contact with Mordred. "So sugar, sweet enough."
Prince Skylio: No*
chris107: Mordred points at the door to area 3
Smon: The door in the north wall of #2 is rotten, with the scent of mildew (like my bedroom).
chris107: "Want to flex your muscles and break that open?"
chris107: (Ewww)
Prince Skylio: "Yes. I soon as I have finished my beverage. I do not wish to burn my lips."
Smon: (The landlord's man cut a chunk out of the wall, but carpet still wet)
chris107: Mordred groans. "Amateurs!"

Prince Skylio: Zagaar finishes his top-notch brew and unhands the verminator to beat in to the door
chris107: Glad you weren't rolling those last game
Smon: GM: Verminator easily smashes aside the rotten planks.
Smon: The heavy scent of rot and mildew wafts out from the old storeroom.
Prince Skylio: Z inhales and smiles
chris107: Mordred hovers behind the stinking Orc, blade ready.
Smon: Crates, barrels, bales of cloth and leather, all dank and decayed.

chris107: "Go on, see what's in there. I'll keep guard."
chris107: "Just scream if you need me."
Smon: Suddenly a shadow falls over the entry to #2 where it leads outside.
Prince Skylio: Z moves in to search through the decayed garments in the hopes of finding underwear to sniff
chris107: Where M stands guard?
Smon: Turning you see two huge wolves stalking you, bloodlust in their eyes - likely attracted by the report of the thunderwave.

Prince Skylio: korean stew on the menu
Smon: The wolf goes flying 20' back, cartwheeling through the air to land well outside.
Smon: The gangrenous wolf's eyes bug out in horror.
Prince Skylio: Z raises his finger to the other wolf "stay."
Smon: Make intimidate roll CHA+Prof
7:35pm  2017-10-05 chris107 Has exited the room

Prince Skylio: (chris is just taking a business inquiry)
Smon: I love how when Zagaar is NOT trying to seduce a comely maiden he can roll great on CHA.
Prince Skylio: Hahah
Smon: The wolf whimpers piteously and drops to its belly in submission.
Prince Skylio: Every time
Prince Skylio: Z puts his hand out for the wolf to smell "I meant you no harm" Z will attempt to remove the arrow from the wolf's hind
Smon: A black arrow shaft protrudes from the wolf's left flank, you recognise the fletching as Goblin work.
7:38pm  2017-10-05 chris107 Has entered the room
chris107: Back
Smon: You'll need to cut put the barbed arrow - Medicine check is INT+Prof
Prince Skylio rolls 1d20+5 and gets: 8, (+5) = 13
Smon: The wolf smells Zagaar's smell hand. It winces as he cuts an incision and draws out the goblin arrow.
Smon: But doesn't bite.
Prince Skylio: "good doggy"
chris107: Mordred looks on astonished
Smon: After a moment it starts to lick the wound - judging by the infection it will still likely die, short of magical healing.
Prince Skylio:
chris107: "If that hound goes anywhere near my owl, you're dead."
Smon: You know the priestesses of Mitra back in Selatine can employ magical cures.
chris107: Haven't we got a healing potion?
Smon: Lady Jana Vex and her 'acolyte' Opara Kakas.
Prince Skylio: "Let us return to Selatine. I don't think these wolves would have attacked had they not been desperate"
chris107: Mordred acts mean but he can not see the animal suffer.
chris107: "Oh very well!"
Prince Skylio: "and this one is a good dog aren't you"
Smon: "woof"
Smon: GM: You head back?
chris107: Yup
Smon: You head back through the woods towards Selatine on the coast, 8 miles away.
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 1,
Smon: The sun is setting beyond the western mountains when you reach the village gate and are given admission by a militiaman.
Prince Skylio: Z will carry Fangtang his newly named wolf friend
Smon: To your right the Inn windows gleam and you hear the sound of merriment. To the left are the shrine of Mitra-Apollo and odd-angled Vex Villa.
chris107: And we will beg healing for Fangtang.
chris107: "Watch he doesn't bight anyone, Zagaar."
Smon: It looks like the evening service has ended, but heading into the shrine you see a shapely blonde girl in white & gold robes dusting up - Opara Kakas.
Smon: "Welcome friends..." she says, glancing nervously at the wild wolf.
chris107: "My lady, we beg your help?"
Smon: Fangtang regards her rather as one might a tasty snack, not aiding her demeanour.
Smon: "...y...yes?"
Prince Skylio: "The wolf will not harm you so long as I am here" he glares at his wolf companion
Prince Skylio: "I wish for your aid in healing my furry friend here."
chris107: "As you can see, the poor creature has been wounded fighting Goblins."
Smon: Opara regards the beast nervously. "Are you the ones Lady Vex sent west, to investigate the hobgoblins?"
chris107: "We are indeed and would soon be back at it if our companion was healed."
Prince Skylio: "Yes. We shall continue our investigation with greater chances of survival if you could heal our wolf"
Smon: Opara nods, and approaches Fangtang nervously. "Nice doggie..."
Smon: /roll d20+4
Smon rolls 1d20+4 and gets: 10, (+4) = 14
Smon: The wolf remains calm as she lays hand on its foul flank.
Smon: You watch as the wound begins to heal...

Smon rolls 1d8+3 and gets: 7, (+3) = 10
chris107: "Thank you. Mitra is benevolent indeed."
Prince Skylio: "Thank you so very much. He would surely have died without you. Say thanks Fangtang"
Smon: Within moments the wound has vanished. The wolf happily licks Opara's thigh beneath the hem of her short robe, causing her to squirm a bit, but she nods to Mordred. "Praise be to Apollo-Mitra. The beast is healed!"
Smon: Fantang: "Woof"
chris107: "Yay!"
Prince Skylio: Z strokes the wolf happily
chris107: "Now, we gave work to do. Let's away!"
Smon: GM I was thinking about cash to give 1 XP per 10gp spent/frittered on carousing etc; 1/1 feels too much but I'd like to allow for it
Smon: The sun has set; do you want to head back at dawn or take a long rest?
chris107: Didn't we do that when Hakeem & Co first started?
Smon: yes
chris107: That's why he was always skint.
chris107: Crack on
Smon: Yes, worked well - I think you should only get gp if you specify something entertaining to waste money on
chris107: Unless we have XP to make 4th
Prince Skylio: "I think we should get going"
Smon: Do you want to sleep in Vex Villa or at the Inn?
chris107: Vex villa stables for Orc & wolf maybe?
Prince Skylio: suits
chris107: Villa and a shower for Mordred
Smon: GM: Lady Vex greets you graciously as you return to the Villa, and Calykka the hairy-lipped old cook rustles you up some supper.
Smon: Jana Vex listens attentively to Mordred's account of the day's adventures.
chris107: "Very nice, madam. Thank you."
Smon: /roll d20
Smon rolls 1d20 and gets: 18,
chris107: "Looks like the kind of place your Hobgoblins could be found. We will away and G'dsh them at dawn."
Smon: Jana: "I have checked the library - at one time Stonehell was a frequent destination for adventuring bands, but in recent decades the treasures became meagre and it was largely forgotten, until now."
chris107: "Useful information. Thank you."
Smon: "I did come across a rumour that an old gold mine connects to the dungeon itself - let us know if you find such a thing."
chris107: "Of course."
Smon: Lady Jana seems to enjoy conversing with a civilised & refined fellow like Mordred, though she keeps the discussion professional.
Smon: (Jana is sick of throwing herself at unsuitable men)
chris107: Mordred appreciates this.
chris107: Mordred could indeed be described as unsuitable
Smon: Zagaar beds down with the beasts in the stable; the wolf snuggles up close for warmth against the chill night air.
chris107: He enjoys the evening of refined conversations after spending time with the crude Orc.
Prince Skylio: "You're wasting your time on that one Jana. When he's not wielding a sword he's swallowing them. No offense of course Mordred."
chris107: "Back to your stable, scum!"
chris107: "I do apologise for my vulgar companion. "
Prince Skylio: Z retreats to the the stable sniggering with Fantang
Smon:  "I believe your dog needs tending to..." Once Zagaar is escorted out by Vuthrik & Epicaste, Jana is joined by Opara, she asks Mordred all about Valon and his knightly order.
chris107: "We must away at dawn to further your cause Lady Janna. Goodnight."
Smon: "Of course, good night."
Smon: GM: You wake next day +3 hp if down any.
chris107: After he has waxed lyrical on his homeland
chris107: And given a little Ice-Magic poetry
chris107: 25/25
Smon: Calykka brings Zagaar & Fantang breakfast in the stable, while Mordred dines with Lady Jana & her household.
Smon: /roll d20
Smon rolls 1d20 and gets: 14,
Smon: Vuthrik to Mordred: "My people the Deathwalkers avoided Stonehell - though quiescent, much evil dwells there. Tales of 'carcass scavengers', foul monsters that prey on the dead. And some strange force of Chaos that alters Reality, corrupts the divine plan of Thanat... I mean, of Mitra."
chris107: "Thank you Vuthrick. I appreciate your advise."
Smon: Calyakka to Zagaar: "That's a big hammer you got there, sir! Ask Piergeron the Smith if you need work on it."
chris107: Zaggar just brewing tea before the journey
Smon: Vuthrik: "I would say, be careful not to delve too deep."
chris107: Mordred encourages the Orc to give the smith the hammer. Pointing out the fine work he did on his armour.
Smon: Jana: "On the other hand Vuthrik, some say the Vizier's treasures are still buried somewhere within Stonehell... "
chris107: "Your wisdom is great indeed."
Smon: Jana smiles at the compliment. After breakfast you heading west again?
chris107: "Aye, we have pledged ourselves to your cause my lady. We will not let you down." He bows low and graceful.
Prince Skylio: "I think we should see Piergeron"
Prince Skylio: "The Verminator deserves respect"
chris107: "He did offer to look at the Verminator for you."
Smon: Jana: "Blessings of Mitra upon you, Champion."
Smon: OOC Mordred may take Inspiration & reroll any 1 d20
chris107: A touch of purple blushes on Mordred's pale blue cheeks.
Prince Skylio: "blessings of zagaar upon you all, cheers for breakfast" he farts and leaves them to deal with the odour
chris107: "M'lady."
chris107: Mordred scowls at the retreating Zagaar.
Smon: OOC Zagaar wasn't invited for breakfast so I guess he bursts in, farts & leaves
Smon: Jana: "Epicaste, in future see that the Orc does not disturb our repast."
Prince Skylio: even better
chris107: He has style. I'll allow that
Smon: Epicaste glares after the retreating Zagaar, hand on sword hilt. "Yes, ma'am."
chris107: "I keep the brute around as he is rather handy at G'dshing with that hammer."
chris107: "But I can only apologise for his uncultured nature."
Prince Skylio: Zagaar cotemplates the most sensitive and appropriate manner in which to address his subject. "So Mordred, that Jana is a total stuck-up bitch. Finger her so she's a bit more chilled maybe?"
Smon: GM: The doughty duo meet outside the Villa.
chris107: He hurried to catch up with Zagaar and is horrified at his comments
chris107: "Now to business!"
Prince Skylio: "Let's find the smith"
Smon: OOC never thought of Jana as stuck-up - she's just trying to be a Lady (for once)
chris107: Mordred makes the introductions. Saying how pleased he is with his new armour.
Prince Skylio: (Zagaar thinks everyone who doesn't eat out of bins is a snob)
Smon: You find Piergeron and his sons beating iron at the Selatine smithy -https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8mzkbqCZoBFnEFrDKuFfUGWkiLhuk2qFd_A3y2AbCTLpJTtvHQmk24uVjnittiUQKT4fyA-tP_swSD9WGEH-V8O9k1Go9I7jkKc11YcXuZ2HMiIb-07uAyGR41eR1lBp30wDkYmOqvpc/s1600/Selatine.png
chris107: AC 19 now by the way I think and no penalty to stealth rolls?
Smon: https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8mzkbqCZoBFnEFrDKuFfUGWkiLhuk2qFd_A3y2AbCTLpJTtvHQmk24uVjnittiUQKT4fyA-tP_swSD9WGEH-V8O9k1Go9I7jkKc11YcXuZ2HMiIb-07uAyGR41eR1lBp30wDkYmOqvpc/s1600/Selatine.png
Smon: 15+2+2=19 yup
Smon: Piergeron: "Welcome friends! What can I do for you?"
Prince Skylio: "Hello there. Wondering if you could help with a bit of modification on this?" Z unveils the Verminator in all it's blood-splattered glory.
chris107: (Is a silvered blade possible, an inlay of silvered tunes on Mordred's sword for example?)
chris107: *runes
Smon: Piergeron inspects the maul. "It's a fine weapon. I'd not want to tamper with the head, but yes it could be silvered, inlaid with runes against demons & the undead."
chris107: Mordred too would be interested in this if he has enough pennies
Prince Skylio: "I like the sound of that. Thanks"
Smon: "It'll take 4 days and 100 gold."
chris107: "Then we better ask Lady Vex if she minds the wait?"
chris107: (We have quite a bit of loot around, potions and such but our notes have been packed away with the rest of our lives)
Prince Skylio: 
Smon: LOL
chris107: Certainly enough for the Verminator if not for both until I find the notes?
Smon: OOC take a piece of paper and note -100 gp.
chris107: Done
Smon: You can hang arounf glorious Selatine, tourist trap of the Ghinarian Hills, for 4 days, enjoying the performances at the Scalpy Inn and the hospitality of Vex Villa (or stables)
chris107:
Prince Skylio: Z will ensure Fangtang is sufficiently fed with leftovers and such
Smon: 22/3/47 A fine sunny morning. The Verminator is ready, now inscribed with silvered war runes (silver vs undead, lycanthropes etc). Fangtang is doing well, his scrawny form has filled out again.
Prince Skylio: Z examines his massive G'dshing hammer proudly and mounts it on his back
Smon: It's a sunny morning as you watch Lady Jana and her warriors Aya & Epicaste lead 40 armoured warriors & slingers north from Selatine to join some war in the north.
Prince Skylio: "thanks mr Pigeon"
chris107: Mordred waves them of brightly.
Smon: Vuthrik the Deathwalker & Piegeron the smith are left behind to oversee the village's meagre defences; Piegeron's sons are with Lad Vex,
Smon: The Ralluans - Lady Lucretia & co - have departed Selatine harbour in search of more mercantile opportunities.
chris107: "One day, Zagaar. We shall be marching off to glorious war. Not scratting around in holes in the dirt."
Prince Skylio: "I like holes in the dirt"
Smon: Old Scalpy the Innkeeper watches them go. "Lord Hakeem will take good care of 'em. They'll be back, you'll see."
chris107: "Let's be on our way then. Mordred sighs. Mordred sighs a lot.
Smon: Opara Kakas looks worried as she waves goodbye to Lady Jana, her 'close personal friend'.
Prince Skylio: "Come fangtang. Let's ditch these lesbos and do some hobgoblins in"

chris107: He discreetly points this out to Zagaar. Shifting his shield to his arm.
chris107: "Shall we?"
chris107: Mordred draws his long slender sword and advances to attack
Prince Skylio: Z brandishes Verminator 2.0 "needed to test this out anyway"
Smon: As you draw steel, you hear a bark from one of the hobgoblins, and they rise, drawing long bows.
chris107: CHARGE!
Smon: Are you charging them? 150' = 2 rounds of running before can attack.
chris107: Is there any cover near by?

chris107: Savage!
Smon: /roll 4d4+2
Smon rolls 4d4+2 and gets: 1, 2, 3, 1, (+2) = 9
Smon: The hob serjeant screams horribly as the wolf brings him to the ground and does his grisly work...
chris107: Phew
Prince Skylio: "GOOD DOGGY"
Smon: By the time Mordred comes running up, most of the hob's face is gone; he's definitely dead.
chris107: OOC blew in a week's worth of abilities but survived
Prince Skylio: Z pats Fangtangs head proudly
Smon: 350 XP each, welcome to 4th level
chris107: "Erm, what parts of the Hobgoblins were we supposed to collect?"
chris107: Yay!
chris107: Search the hobos too
Smon: The dead hobgoblins seem well equipped, their gear well maintained. They all have belt pouches with coin, the leader has a parchment note too.
Prince Skylio: Verminator 2.0 https://www.google.co.uk/search?client=firefox-b-ab&dcr=0&biw=1366&bih=659&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=silver+warhammer&oq=silver+warhammer&gs_l=psy-ab.3..0j0i8i30k1l3.126026.129062.0.129127.16.15.0.0.0.0.357.2857.0j2j5j4.11.0....0...1.1.64.psy-ab..5.11.2843...0i67k1j0i10k1.0.VBazOcnfjdM#imgrc=owtvxJt7J_5xSM:
Smon: It's written in Goblin and signed with a sort of sinister goatshead sigil.
chris107: Mordred can use comp Lang as a ritual now?
Smon: Cool Verminator img
Smon: OK, Mordred traces the script, invoking the arcane powers.
chris107: "Lets load up as much of their valuable stuff and return to town with our Hobgoblin head trophies?"
Prince Skylio: "good shout"
Smon: "To the Soldiers of the Hobgoblin Occupation Army. You are instructed to enact My Revenge upon the Curst Ville of Selatine. When all is Ready, Strike Down Upon them with Furious Vengeance! Slay the Men and take the Women to the Portal, that I may Enjoy them. - Oriax, the Horned Goat."
chris107: (OOC - Oriax!)
chris107: "We better take this note too. Could prove important."
chris107: He reads the words to his din witted friend
Smon: Zagaar can carry 3 lots of hob gear, Mordred 2, though encumbered you can bring it all back to Selatine.
Prince Skylio: Z ponders the message deeply. "How did this goat-man write a letter with hooves"
chris107: Mordred shrugs "Dunno mate."
Smon: The hobs had little cash, just 90 coppers between them.
chris107: Sell all the goodies and report back to the temple of Apollo Mitra with our grizzly trophies and the note.
Prince Skylio: "We should return to Selatine and warn villagers of the literate goat"
Smon: GM: You load up and head back east across the Selatine plain.
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 2,
chris107: Phew
Smon: You return without incident that afternoon. Vuthrik the Deathwalker looks puzzled by the note, & calls on Opara Kaka, her eyes widen in fear. "Oriax! No! He has found some way to return..."
chris107: "Who is this literate goat?"
Smon: "Lady Jana would know what to do, but she is marching north with our warriors...." Opara sniffles tearily.
Prince Skylio: Z's depiction of Oriax https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=goat+writing&client=firefox-b-ab&dcr=0&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi2-s-Ds9rWAhWKL8AKHT9jBFYQ_AUICigB&biw=1366&bih=659#imgrc=6NdMyVWkXU6t9M:
chris107: "Lend us swift horses and we will catch her."
chris107: Hehe great picture
Smon: "Oriax is a monster! A Demonbrood Archmage! Once he held Selatine in thrall, until Hakeem and Rey liberated us..." Opara looks dreamy at the thought of Rey.
chris107:
Smon: LOL
chris107: "Or would you have us slay this goat instead?"
Prince Skylio: "sounds pretty mean mon"
Smon: Vuthrik: "I will ride north and inform Lady Vex. Opara, you have the village until I return."
chris107: Mordred pales a little at the words Arch and Mage
Smon: Opara nods uncertainly. "Yes..."
Smon: She looks at the note. "Perhaps this Portal is not fully open yet... Or he fears to come here himself. We should consult with Lady Vex. She is very wise."
Prince Skylio: "Do you think he's better at spells than you Mordred"
Smon: Vuthrik nods: "Aye; I'll ask Lady Vex to return, Epicaste can lead our army."
chris107: "Then we shall stay and fight off any Hobgoblins who show their face."
Smon: Opara nods gratefully to Mordred. "Thanks. You have done very well."
chris107: "Probs, Zagaar." Admits Mordred sadly
chris107: Mordred looks pleased.
Prince Skylio: "Bet he won't be better at you at spells with a giant hammer imbedded in his cranium"
Prince Skylio: than you*
chris107:
Smon: GM: Piergeron assesses your loot; he's willing to cover the silvering of both weapons for it (so 200gp)
chris107: "You are right ! Bring forth the Verminator 2.0!"
Smon: Do you want to wait, get Mordred sword silvered (if not already) & complete Long Rest?
chris107: Perfect!
chris107: Yes please and level up.
Smon: Next day Vuthrik returns with a worried Lady Jana, who listens to your tale.
chris107: We need to wait a week if we are to get our action surges and spells back
Smon: "I know a little about Portals to other dimensions.... I have employed them myself."
chris107: "Let us aud you further, dear Lady Vex."
Prince Skylio: "Do you know another dimension where will not get murdered by a deranged wizard"
Smon: Jana asks you to help organise the remaining villagers against hobgoblin attack while you rest & ready yourselves; a week passes & you level up.
chris107: Sounds good to me
9:21pm  2017-10-05 Prince Skylio Has exited the room
9:21pm  2017-10-05 Prince Skylio Has entered the room
chris107: Mordred is good at organising things
Smon: Jana: "Well I was at a place called Sandpoint, on the world of Golarion... it was very nice."
chris107: And impressing peasants
chris107: Standpoint
Smon: "A wizard there helped me return here - if you like I could show you the cave where I first... slipped through."
Smon: Jana gets a faraway look, remembering past adventures (& past lovers)
chris107: "If this cave is a place where the veils betwixt worlds is thin, could this Oriax have used it to make his return?"
Smon: Jana nods. "There, or a similar place. Look out for unnatural coolness - a sign of Magicum."
Smon: "Magicum erodes the Walls between Worlds, until one can just... fall through."
chris107: Mordred listens attentively
Prince Skylio: "Mordred is used to being in the presence of unnatural coolness since our travels together. Is it difficult to detect?"
chris107: He's very interested in magic
Smon: ooc stopping at 10.30
Smon: Jana: "A Detect Magic spell can find Magicum. I hear the Dwarves can sniff it out."
chris107: Perfect Simon, we both need to look at the PHB for level 4 stuff
Smon: OOC when can you play again?
chris107: Both of us? Thurs 12th?
Smon: Jana looks thoughtful. "Lady Meda of Thusia would know how to deal with this... But she is far away, and a great war wages in the North. I feel we must deal with this ourselves, before disaster can strike."
Smon: OOC next Thursday perfect
chris107: Mordred sees an opportunity to gain the fame he so craves
Smon: Jana: "I had though my adventuring days past, but if you wish, I will accompany you against this evil."
Smon: thought
chris107: Next Thursday it is then.
chris107: We'll sort the character sheets by then.
Smon: cool, will post log
chris107: Thanks for the game
