DM Anthony (Partys Init) d20+10=18 d20+6=9 Tuesday April 22nd, 2003 10:26:53 AM
Gry tries to get everyones attention and plan however everyone realizes suddenly that it has grown quiet except for Jennys screams, and the loud buzzing of wasps in the cave. Looking up you see, you have been seen and the beasts move to attack.
Milo seeing this attacks at once. The beast dodges the majority of the damage however.
Gry's spell goes off and the bounder dosent seem to shake it off, however with a beast that seems immune to fear its hard to tell.
Gilan and the two wasps swoop in for the kill, yet none of them strike at all. (OOC: please find someone to play your wasps, and spiders guys. And Gilan, you need to make sure you REALLLLLLLY want to use those weapons as a ill forgo the penalties till I hear from you.)
Trellus rushes into protect his sister heedlessly putting his life at risk. Once through the bars Jenny clings to him, shaking like a leaf, crying and sobbing. (Hero point IF you live through this)
Jacob slashes into the Rapke but it dosent seem to cut him as deeply as he hoped. and the battle for Jenny is joined.

Bounder #1 launches into attacks against Gilan and the two wasps clawing at a wasp and Gillina and biting another. The claw at gilan rakes down the young mans side (5 dam) and the other claw missing the wasp. The bite however comes down in the middle of the wasps body, biting the beast in half. The bounder then seems to chuckle as it chews.
Bounder #2 seeing Trellus run into the cage with Jenny slams himself up against the bars again. Something gives for a moment and then stays, a rain of dust and pebbles come down on the three inside. Another hit like that and about a ton of rock will come straight down on the three. This bounder too seems to chuckle.
The Rapke stands up to its full highth and screams. (Everyone Will DC 12 or stunded for 1d4 rnds) he tne leans down and bite Jacob missing at the last moment.
(It is the partys init)

(Will save 16 against fear)
Grymash lets loose his fury with a blood thirsty roar!! "NO FEAR GARGUL WORDS, THEN LEARN TO FEAR GRYMASH AUUUGGHHH!!!" With Grymash's rage, the holy symbol on his buckler glows with a hot bright light.
Taking a 5-ft step between the bounder and Milo, Grymash whirls his double axe into the bounders flesh.
(Hit AC 21 for 15 points of damage. Hit AC 18 for 8 points of damage. Possible 23 points of damage.)
Trellus (ac 22, 18hp, barkskin) d20+6=24 d20+6=19 d8+2=3 Tuesday April 22nd, 2003 11:56:07 AM
Trellus feels the shuddering of the stone as the bounder slams into it. Jenny is crying and pawing at him.
My thread's as good as cut he thinks. Oddly, the thought calms him down, and everything becomes easier to deal with.
He forces a potion into Jenny's hands. "Jenny!" he orders as forcefully as he possibly can, "Drink this! You'll turn to gas for half a minute, but you be able to float! Drink it, move behind Milo(pointing to the halfling), and STAY THERE!"
Then Trellus pulls his mace and launches himself through the bars at the bounder, stepping to the side so the monster can't slam both him and the cage.
Trellus takes his final blows, lightly tapping the creature on the side of its head. (Hit AC 19 for 3hp).
Trellus (OOC) Tuesday April 22nd, 2003 11:57:08 AM

Gilan-HP: 25 AC: 16 d20+6=14 d6+2=5 d20+6=18 Tuesday April 22nd, 2003 2:09:23 PM
Gilan watches in horror as one of his wasps is bitten clean in half. For any druid this is more than they can take and he flies into a rage. Without a thought to what he is doing he throws himself into his attacks against the bounder.
His face goes even redder in rage as his scimitar misses its target and he raises his shield. Noone has ever seen Gilan in this state before and he almost seems to have turned into Gry himself.
[Gilan vs Bounder#1: hit-14, damage-5] [Will DC save of 18]
{For my first attack you are right, I should have been using my scimitar instead. I am not sure what I was thinking. I also have emailed the neccessary information on my wasps to Carla(Flea) as she showed interest in playing them. I also need to know which one is dead so she knows and I can remove him from my character sheet.}
DM Anthony "The Smaller one is dead. Sorry about that, bad luck that."
Anuk (AC 17, HP 23) d20+3=17 d20+8=19 d8+1=7 Tuesday April 22nd, 2003 3:39:20 PM
Despite the chaos erupting around him, Anuk keeps his arrow trained on the bounder attacking Jenny's position in the "cage" (Will save 17). When he sees the thing getting ready to charge Trellus he grunts, "Oh no you don't!" and lets the arrow fly. It sinks into the beast's hide (hits AC 19 for 7 points of damage -- I'm assuming I'm within 30 ft. so I'm using my Point Blank Shot feat. Otherwise, hits AC 18 for 6 points.) He hopes the sting is enough to distract the beast from pummeling his friend.
Syler (AC:16 HP:18) d20+9=24 d20+4=20 Tuesday April 22nd, 2003 5:45:45 PM
Syler sees the small boy still lying in the cage. Figuring the boy doesn't have a chance if the bounder continues to throw its weight against the alcove, he runs through the foray and tumbles (rolled 24) past the bounder into the cage.
Option one: If Syler has movement left he is going to try to bring the boy out while protecting him with his body.
Option two: If Syler can't do anything else he is going to keep himself over the boy, scream at the bounder to intimidate (rolled 20) and prepare to move him next round.
Flea (AC 16: HP 17, Point Blank Shot, Precise Shot) d20=10 d4=4 d20=8 Tuesday April 22nd, 2003 11:18:14 PM
Never having seen beasts such as these, nor heard a scream like that of the rapke, Flea goes into shock. [OOC: used 1 hero point to re-roll will save, failed; stunned for 4 rounds. James, play your wasp(s) until the weekend. I am out of town, and I'm phoning in my action.]
Jacob d20+7=15 Wednesday April 23rd, 2003 12:08:33 AM
Jacob winces as the jaws of the ferocious rapke just barely miss him... he doesn't have much hope alone on this monster. The only thing he can do is hope that he distracts this until the others come over to help him, and save the girl. Maybe they could try running... He brings the sword down on the creature's shoulder, but feels the sword merely bounce off, as he hit some sorta muscle or something. (AC 15 doesn't hit, I assume?)

It is amazing how a battle can turn from bad to worse and then from ashes hope can rise. Valor, courage and kinship are born from moments as those.
Milo and Flea suddenl go rigid with fright, lost in nightmares created by these beasts. Jacob fummbles through missing his blow. Sterlin attacks with his new dagger and misses as well. Gilan watches as his wasp dies and then misses his attack. Anuk attacking the Rapke feels as if his shot missed by a tiny amount, hope seeping away. . .But then something happens and a familiar feeling washes over you. Something you have felt before although in the heat of battle its difficult to place where it comes from but you know it as familiar and kind. Giving into the feeling you feel hope seep into your hearts.
(+1 to ATT, AC, Svs please post your AC but NOT HP on the name line as well as any active effects, it helps me. HPs are secrect.)
At that moment Grymash's first attack sinks in. He can see that the beast has already been hurt, perhaps in some fall? Syler sees once inside the cage that there is no way he can move the body, it is Malgo and he seems unhurt and breathing but hes not moving. There is a bite on his shoulder.
Trellus turns and gives the potion to Jenny but as the feeling washes over all of you it seems to effect Jenny the most. Looking at her brother she shakes her head... "Trim that!" giving the potion to Syler and nodding to Malgo she says, "Give it to the piggie, he got scared and ran and got bit by the big one there. I had to drag him in here." Then looking up at her bigger brother and pulling a knife she says "If your weft is cut here then so is mine, blood stands with blood." With that she turns to face the monsters with tears in her eyes. In a brief moment of silence everyone can hear her mutter under her breath. "I love you brother and I will die with my pack." Then she launches herself at the bounder at the same time as Trellus aiming for an eye. The small knife sinking deep into the soft tissue and driving into the skull as little Jenny screams in ancient furry. Suddenly something gives way in the beast and Jennys hand and then arm sinks deep into the beasts skull. Her arm thrashing about blood splashing everywhere as the beast vomits out its last breath, brain turned to jelly by Jennys knife, Jenny finnaly goes silent, covered in gore and mess as she turns to her brother panic coming across her face . . . "My arms stuck..."

The Rapke attacks Jacob. Hitting well with only the bite, but thats enough. (14 dam and Fort save DC 12)

(dont know which bounder died. is it the one grymash was attacking? grymash will attack whatever bounder is still standing.)
Grymash is enraptured in the ecstasy of his rage with the spray of warm blood. To him its taste is sweet as honey and nectar. He again slashes into the bounder (the one still standing).

Trellus (ac23, barkskin, feat of strength, hopeful feeling) Wednesday April 23rd, 2003 12:47:48 PM
Trellus' emotional state runs quite a gamut in about two and a half seconds... (fear) "No! Jenny don't... (confusion) weave?... (elation) Shade the Protector! You killed it!"
Jenny's panic at being stuck is met with a ridiculous grin. "Beats being dead," he responds happily, hopping on the bounder to give her a hand.
"Syler!" he calls "Save that potion. Malgo's poisoned. It won't help."
"Dudes! Gry's got the bounder! Everyone else rip the Rapke!"
Trellus plunges his hands into the Bounder's skull, trying to pull it apart far enough to free his sister. "Let go of the knife. Just get your hand out," he tells her.

Gilan-AC: 17 d20+7=25 d20+7=22 d6+2=7 Wednesday April 23rd, 2003 2:49:09 PM
Gilan is still aware of nothing going on around him. He has focused in on the bounder before him and his lips pull back to bare his teeth. "I will have your hide monster." He throws himself into the next attack, putting a pile of rage behind it. He wants to see nothing more than the total destruction of this beast, even if it means his own death.
[Gilan vs. Bounder#1: hit-25(possible critical), 22(crit?); damage: 7(14 if crit)]

Anuk (AC 18, Point Blank Shot) d20+7=16 d20+8=18 d8+2=9 Wednesday April 23rd, 2003 11:03:13 PM
Anuk's eyes widen in amazement as he realizes Jenny is not only well enough to fight, she's strong enough to drop the bounder. "Shadows, Jenny!" Things seem to be picking up!
He turns his attention and his bow to the rapke. In rapid succession he draws an arrow, nocks it, pulls the string, aims, and shoots. His excitement causes him to lose concentration, however, and the arrow narrowly misses the creature, bouncing off the rock walls of the cave. (hits AC 16 for 9 points of damage -- ignore second roll)
Jake d20+8=9 d20+8=26 d20+8=28 d10+3=10 d10+3=7 Thursday April 24th, 2003 3:12:02 AM
The Rapke is clawing, biting, and seems everywhere. Jacob screams helplessly as the poison thrashes through his veins. (9 on my fort save...ugh). He swings wildly back, and this time, feels his sword chop deep into the creature's side, just below where it's master is. (AC 26, potential crit, 28 threat, probably hit...does 10 damage, 17 if critical). After he swings, he backs up a few steps (5 foot step), praying that it doesn't come after him fully. "Help here..."

Grymash attacks the unhurt bounder and hits both times cutting the Bounder deeply.
Milo stares.....
Ezra & Enoch begin moving up behind the Rapke (Kevin please find someone to play these guys.)
Gilan giving into the blood lust attacks with all his might and gashes the bounder deeply. His blade sinking in deeper than he thought possible. The bounder looks badly hurt.
Anuk misses and curses aand is still within 30'. The Rapke seeing the arrow fly past looks about.
Flea stares....
Jake's attack sinks deep but then the posion reaches him and he falls over leaving his sword stuck in the beast. Jake lays on the floor of the cave unmoving.
Trellus rushing foreward to help his sister rips up on the top of the skull. His adrinalina nd the magic seem to overpower him and he literaly rips off the top of the beasts head, freeing Jennys arm and knife. The girl can only stare at her brother in amazement.

Bounder #1 attacks Gilan again. This time however the huge mouth is the attack that hiits ad Gilan feels himself almost swallowed by the beast (24 Dam)
The Rapke looking about sees the fist bounder in pieces and then Milo standing, staring. The evil laugh is heard again and the beast moves to Milo. he seems to almost dance and sway, avoiding any possible attacks. (Tumble 25) Then he positions himself above the halfling to rip out his throat.

Trellus rips off the bounder's head, blood and gore spattering all over. "Shady," he comments.
He sees Jacob go down. Then the beast moves to Milo. Meanwhile that other halfling... "SYLER! Leave Malgo alone and DO SOMETHING!"
"Jenny," he begs his sister, "stay away from the Rapke. You've no armor at all."
Trellus casts a spell on himself, and lauches himself at Milo, bellowing a primal roar all the while. The cleric tries to knock Milo down and stand over him.

When Anuk sees Jake crumple, a wave of guilt and frustration washes over him. Why don't his arrows fly true? Why?!!
He draws another arrow and prepares to shoot, all the while watching the dancing movements of the rapke. The instant the rapke stops in front of Milo, the twang of Anuk's bow is heard. But dust from the cave floor, stirred up by the fight, gets in Anuk's eyes at exactly that moment, and once again the arrow flies harmlessly past the beast. (hits AC 15. Sorry gang :( )

(Attack of opportunity attempt on the rapke if you would allow, since I am next to Milo and it landed in my threatened area. Hit AC 11, no chance.)
"MILO!!! ..." yells Grymash as he watches the rapke tumble amazingly though the area with only ONE foot!! He turns from the injured bounder, takes a few steps back and charges at the rapke with the broad side of his large double axe for a bull rush!!! "AUUGGGGHHHH!!! roars Grymash as he throws himself onto the foul reptile with all his weight and strength he can muster.
(Strength check 27, natural 20. Touch attack hit AC 23.)
Grymash hopes the missing foot allows the rapke enough instablility that he can push the beast and pin him against the wall of the cave (or knock him over) away from Milo!
(If you allow any damage from the weapon, I rolled a 13.)
Gilan-AC: 17 Thursday April 24th, 2003 4:55:30 PM
He screams as he is engulfed into the monsters mouth. He tries to force the blood lust that is beating through his veins into a last desperate attack. But his eyes clear and only intense pain can be read in the depths, as his shield and scimitar clatter to the ground. "No...can't..." Slipping into the coming darkness he slumps into the mouth of the bounder, which promptly lets him fall to hit the earthen floor and stand over him.
Grymash Thursday April 24th, 2003 5:31:44 PM
Grymash didnt realize what had happened to Gilan. While drenched in bounder blood and enslaved by rage, his judgement becomes clouded with adrenaline!!

Awakening from his own little world by the shouts of Trellus, Syler rolls from his protective alcove to help out the party.
Syler starts to chant in an ancient tounge, outstretches his hands, and lets fly two energy projectiles that strike the remaining bounder with a loud "CRACK".

Trellus leaps at teh stunned Milo and knocks him to the ground just in time.Saving him from the gnashing teeth of the Rapke.
Ezra & Enoch both attack the Rapke and Ezra misses completely however Enoch gets a good bite in, sinking his fangs deep into the beast, however the mosnster seems to no be effected by the posion at all.
Anuk's frustration builds as he yet again is inefective in battle...
Grymash knowing everything he knows about Rapke and blance and rushes the Rapke. Puting everything he has into it. Knowing that it is impossible for these things to happen. Knowing that no beast could do what its doing and stay up. Gry puts his head down and rushes hard, building up speed. Knowing that there is nothing that can stop him until.... WHAM. Gry rickosheys off the brick wall that is this beast. The beast neither moves or stumbles. It is neither hurt nor moved. It is now only angry.
Gilan slumps to the floor, dead?
Syler's bolts seem to wound the already hurt bounder badly. It is hard to see why the beast is still standing.
The bounder tries to take a bite out of Sterlin but due to its weakend condition it misses completely and the spell comes off, reviving Gilan.
Tiev is capable of nothing but buzzing about the beast and making it angry.
Flea stares....

The bounder backs away from the party and crosses over to something lieing on the floor, and crunchees it between his teeth. Suddenly he looks much better.
The Rapke focuses on nothing else but biting Gry's head off. The rapke opeing its mouth wide bites down hard engulfing the barbarians head and twisting. Blood spurts everywhere, and the beast comes clost to almost ripping off the half orcs face as well.

Gilan slowly and weakly lifts himself from the ground. Shaking his head he glances around and jogs his memory as to where he is at and what he was doing. With a groan he reaches out and takes his scimitar and shield into hand. Using the scimitar to help himself to his feat he glances around some more to get an idea of what is happening.
It is not a good sight that greets his eyes as he sees Gry with his head in a rapke's mouth and being savaged. If he was not already still sort of out of it...this sight may have just made him sick.

Grymash wonders what happened. Why did he hit a wall? His rage has peaked to an all time high. Grymash hopes the pointy spike on top of his helmet is very uncomfortable to the rapke. (If allowed) In his madness Grymash will also bite whatever piece of flesh he can latch on too (possibly a tongue).

"Gilan...you okay? Can you hear me?" he asks, concern filling his words.
If Gilan is still unconscious and on the floor (as per Anth's post), then Anuk begins rips more cloth from his cloak and begins to apply first aid to his friend, hoping to stabilize him (Heal check 20).
If Gilan is awake and attempting to stand (as per his post), Anuk stands defensively in front of him and fires his arrow at the bounder, finally hitting his mark (hits AC 27 for 4 points of damage).

launching attacks at the same time, the 2 itty bitty spiders once again try eating the huge beast. Ezra gets a taste of blood this time doing 1 point of damage. seeing his friend miss wildly, he sends a thought to him, that their master can hear.
*quit playing around and get busy or else Master will have you for dinner*
Milo Wednesday April 30th, 2003 10:06:24 AM
coming out of his stupor, Milo is enraged. having missed alot yet seeing his comrades get bloodied, Milo reaches in to his spell component pouch. with a handful of ground mica in his hand, Milo waves his left hand in conjuration while saying some arcane words, then, he throws the powder at the Rapke.
Spell: Glitterdust centered on the Rapke, dc save is 16, will.
Trellus (ac25, barkskin, hopeful feeling,fighting on defensive) Wednesday April 30th, 2003 10:30:37 AM
Trellus' blow does nothing on the thick hide of the Rapke.
But, he sees Gry has his head out in one piece. "Praise Domi" he breathes.
Keeping a wary eye, and shield, on the rapke, the cleric stows his mace. Reaching over his head, he pulls the healing wand from his conveniently placed map case.
"Be right with you, Gry!" he yells. "Rip that sunbaked rapke!"
Grymash (ac20, Aid, Prot. from Evil, Mage Armour?, Rage) d20+10=25 d20+10=23 d20+10=28 d8+10=12 d8+10=12 d20+6=20 Wednesday April 30th, 2003 2:38:23 PM
(Unsure if the rapke let me go or not, if not Grymash will attempt to grapple out of the beasts hold. Opposed Grapple check (+7 strength mod, +2 base attack bonus, +1 Aid bonus, +1d20 = 25) --------------------------- (If Gry was free, he will attack.)
Grymash's enchanted buckler of Gargul glows brighter than anyone has even seen it. Gry is lost in his rage. He is a blazing font of frenzied violent fury. He lets loose his attacks.
(Hit AC 23 for 12 points of damage. Hit AC 28 for another 12 points of damage. Total possible 24 points of damage.)
(Just in case Milo's Glitterdust also effects Gry, since he is in the area, he will make a Will save of 20.)
Flea (AC 17, Point Blank Shot, Precise Shot, Hopeful Feeling) d20+7=11 Wednesday April 30th, 2003 6:58:36 PM
Flea looks at the shortbow in her hand, and shakes her head as if waking from a dream, only this was a nightmare! She tries to block out the sounds of carnage, and notches an arrow to the hempen string, drawing it back against her cheek, her wrist cocked a little so that the string won't lash it. Her arms feel heavy, though and the arrow misses it's mark flying past the horrible monster that is the rapke.
(OOC: I added the 'Hopeful Feeling' assuming from DM post of April 23, 2003 that it was some kind of 'Bless'.)
Tiev (AC 14) d20+6=24 d3+6=7 Wednesday April 30th, 2003 8:12:13 PM
In a frenzy, Tiev stabs at a new enemy, the Rapke. The wasp pierces it's thick hide (Sting=24) and inflicts as much damage as it can (7damage+poison).
Poison DC 18 1d6 to Dex.
Jacob Wednesday April 30th, 2003 11:29:29 PM
Jacob lies where he is, motionless.
Anuk (AC 18, Point Blank Shot) d20+9=20 d8+1=4 Thursday May 1st, 2003 12:17:41 AM "Yes!! hisses Anuk as the bounder topples. He quickly fires an arrow at the Rapke, but misses his prey (hits AC20 for 4 points), because at that moment he sees the still form of Jake on the floor of the cavern.
"Glad to see you up, Gilan...I gotta go see if I can help Jake." If Jake is still within the reach of the rapke, then Anuk draws his swords and charges toward the beast, screaming at the top of his lungs. Otherwise, Anuk keeps his bow and runs to Jake's body, placing himself between it and the rapke.
Sterlin (barkskin ac: 18 ) d20+5=9 Thursday May 1st, 2003 11:28:47 AM
Sterlin swings at the rapke with his scimitar and misses.
DM Anthony d20+5=21 Thursday May 1st, 2003 12:37:27 PM
Ezra & Enoch both miss.
Milos spell fails due to Rapke save.
Trellus pulls a wand
Grymash's first attack misses, the second hits. (again please send me your character sheet. The computer here at school wont read yours.)
Flea misses but feels better
Jacob lies motionless.
Anuk misses
Sterlin misses
Tiev strikes the beast but its imune to posion. However it seems enough to put the beast over the edge and it topples lifeless.
Milo d20+6=11 Thursday May 1st, 2003 1:09:46 PM
rushes to jacob, checks his vitals. (11 heal check)
Ezra & Enoch Thursday May 1st, 2003 1:11:04 PM
jumps up and down on the Rapke, biting at it from time to time to make sure it is not getting back up.
Ezra says to Enoch, thats 3 flies you owe me, i did more damage than you did!
Trellus (ac23, barkskin, hopeful feeling) d20+9=25 Thursday May 1st, 2003 1:38:31 PM
Trellus looks around. Its over? he thinks, Just like that?
"Jenny!" he calls out, looking about for his sister.
Assuming she's OK, he hands his wand to Sterlin. "Could you re-thread Gilan some more, while I check Jake?" he says.
Pulling his Healer's Kit out of his pack, he bends over Jacob with Milo.
(Heal check 25. Took +2 for the Healer's Kit. Treating poison?)
"Gry," he calls suddenly, urgently, "The Rider. The Manfri said they'd all return unless we.....well....you know."
Grymash (ac20, Aid, Prot. from Evil, Mage Armour?, Glittered) d20+14=24 d20+14=23 d8+10=12 d8+10=18 d8+10=17 d8+10=14 d8+10=16 d8+10=14 Thursday May 1st, 2003 3:14:13 PM
Grymash still enraptured by his rage strikes down on the helpless rapke and rider.
(+4 prone, like it matters theyre helpless and defenseless.)
He slices down on the rapke's neck to sever it and then turns on the rider for the same effect. (Coup de grace. Hit AC 24 [on rapke] and 23 [on rider]. Automatic criticals x3 on both, if allowed. Damage: 12, 18, 17, 14, 16 & 14 = Rapke takes 47 damage and the Rider takes 44 damage. If they werent completely dead then they will need to make Fort saves DC 57 [rapke] and DC 54 [rider] or die. That felt good, always wanted to do that! :)
If that severs the rapkes head from its body Grymash will kick it away from the body, toward the wall of the cave. Grymash raises his double axe with both hands high above his head and roars in victory. Blood streams down from the axe as he holds it in the air. Gry flicks out his tongue to catch the surpy crimson. After collecting a fair amount, he spits it out in a fine mist down on the bodies. Finally his blood lust for the rapke has been satisfied.
Grymash falls down to one knee and calms from his rage. He almost appears to shrink in size a little bit. He puts his hand to his face to feel his wounds and to rest his head. His breath is heavy and labored. He then realizes that he glows with a glittery light (even though his save fought off blindness from Milo's spell, the light show still remains).
"Sun-Baked and Brittle!! ...Why is Grymash shinny?"
Sterlin Thursday May 1st, 2003 5:11:19 PM
Sterlin uses the wand to heal Gilan. (don't know what to roll for it) He also looks around for Jenny, hopeing she is alright.
Gilan d8+2=8 Thursday May 1st, 2003 6:17:53 PM
Seeing that he battle is over and not in real great shape himself, he leans on his scimitar. With a smile to Sterlin he nods his thanks at first. "I am not sure I want to experience another near death experience like that again."
With a wave after the first hit from the wand, he turns Sterlin towards Grymash and Jacob. "They can use more attention with that wand at this time." He closes his eyes and calls upon the innate powers of nature to come to his aid and grant him the power to heal some of his wounds. With a satisfying smile he feels the answer to his call and the flowing of nature's blessing into him.
[healin for 8hps]
Flea d20+9=28 Thursday May 1st, 2003 9:19:03 PM
The rogue reflects on the combat, Trellus seems a natural leader, and the druid, Gilan, has more lives than a cat! The half-elf, Jacob seems a little aloof, but what a fighter...and Milo has all the shady picks, like the 'Feather Fall' move on Trellus. She flushes with shame on remembering her paralysis in the face of battle...
With her head down, and her eyes averted from the party as they go about the business of tending to each other, she approaches the dead beasts carefully. She takes out her short sword and prods at the ramains of the scaled chicken/lizard thing that was the rapke. She searches (Search=28) through what is left of the beast and it's rider for any thing that might be of value.
Tiev Thursday May 1st, 2003 9:31:31 PM
The exhausted wasp hastens over to Gilan and lights on his shoulder. The insect's wings droop forlornly.
Grymash d20-2=8 Thursday May 1st, 2003 10:45:54 PM
Grymash drops his axe and draws his dagger. He happens to notice his reflection in the blade. He can see spots of blood all across his face. He isnt sure if its his or not. His hands are also covered with red. He wipes what he can off on his pants leg. Grymash turns his gaze on the others. He watches them tend to one another. Their voices sound muffled. His own screams still ring in his ears. He can feel the raspiness in his throat.
Grymash tries to remember what the manfri told them about disposing the bodies of the barons. He pulls off his helmet, drops it and pulls his sweat matted hair from his eyes. It helps to clear his mind."Im soo stupid stupid," he mutters to himself!! Grymash fall down hole, nearly killing his pack. Almost lets Gilan and Milo get eaten. Now I forget ... stupid stupid! He just stands there dazed and confused, trying to remember. He feels useless. "Is death all Grymash good at? Am I too stupid to do anything else? Death is easy, real easy ... its life that's hard! Maybe my gift is death ... with death of rapke others can live! Huh ... that's good thought, Grymash not too stupid! I think?!" Grymash cheers himself up with his little pep talk. This revelation pleases Grymash to no end. He feels blessed by Gargul to be baptized in the blood that drips from his body. Then again ... he double checks to make sure its not his own!!
"Trellus dont forget about Malgo over there. Ohhh (whispering in Trellus' ear) uhh err, what I do with Baron body. Don't remember what manfri say!"
Anuk Friday May 2nd, 2003 10:41:18 AM
Anuk breathes a sigh of relief as the battle ends and he sees that the pack seems to have survived. He slings his bow across his back and approaches Flea.
"Hey...just wanted to say sorry 'bout just handing you the torch like that...things get crazy and sometimes I don't think things through very well. Just...ummm...well...I wasn't thinking. YOu probably had other plans. Anyway...sorry."
As his gaze moves downward he discovers the boots that Gilan tossed to him still lying on the cavern floor. A little dirtier and blood spattered, but still in fine shape. He sits and unwraps the cloth covering his feet, then puts the boots on. "Hey Gilan...nice fit. Shady. Thanks!" Looking up, he notices that only one wasp remains on Gilan's shoulder. "Oh...Gilan...I'm sorry."
He stands and looks at the twisted body of the baron. "Last night the manfri had us remove the hearts of these treadles. Should we do it again?"
(ooc: does Anuk still have the ceremonial dagger he used the night before, or did the manfri take it back?)
DM ANTH THE MANFRI TOOK IT BACK
DM Anthony Friday May 2nd, 2003 12:57:40 PM
Jenny found, the battle calmed, the monsters dead, then a rummble of stone and the sound of crushing rock and the light from the hole you fell down goes out, dust bellows from that tunell and you know, back is no longer the way out.
Trellus 2d8(6+3)+3=12 d20+9=16 Friday May 2nd, 2003 2:26:58 PM
(OOC - The wand Sterlin used on Gilan was of Cure Moderate Wounds, so 12hp to Gilan. I'm also assuming the heal check worked and Jacob is back to land of the moving.)
Having helped Jacob recover from the Rapke's bite, Trellus grabs his pack and kit and heads over to Malgo.
"Thanks Gry, I remember him," he states. And then with more bitterness, "he's just not the lead thread in my loom right now."
"Hey Gry, you still got that other healing wand, right? Let's use it to patch everyone up while we've got the time. We'll save this big one for emergencies."
Then, the cave entrance gives way, and darkness engulfs the party. "Light," Trellus growls/invokes. Instantly, his shield starts glowing, illuminating the cavern. "This'll glow about 30 minutes," he calls out, as he bends over Malgo. "Anybody see a way out?"
(Heal check on Malgo = 16)
Gilan Friday May 2nd, 2003 2:40:37 PM
With a great amount of emotion and gentleness he reaches up and strokes the back of Tiev as he lands on his shoulder. He turns his back on his pack as tears stream down his face and he slumps to the ground.
He turns as Anuk speaks to him and gives him a strained smile as he slowly stands. "Thank you brother...there is no nobler sacrifice that one can make than to give ones life for a friend...Yanb was most definitely a friend. One of my best since early in my life here." He glances over to the dead body of the bounder and his face hardens.
When the plan of disposing of these beasts in the way of the manfri, Gilan is all too happy to agree. Pulling one of his daggers he makes his way over to the bounder that had killed Yanb. He spits once on the corpse before kneeling and literally cutting the thing to shreads as he takes its heart out. Holding the heart in one hand and the dagger in the other, he is a feral sight to behold...dripping in the things blood. "What else do we need to do...I am not exactly thinking straight at this time."
Sterlin Friday May 2nd, 2003 3:33:22 PM
Sterlin grabs Jenny and wraps his arms around her. With a shaking voice he says, " Jenny, we almost lost you. Why did you come out here? "
Grymash d100=71 d20+8=20 d20+8=24 Friday May 2nd, 2003 4:24:50 PM
Grymash breaks out a big toothy grin after Trellus asks him to help. He is more than eager to do something non-lethal to his pack. His worries about the barron melt away ... in fact, what barron?! ... "oh yeah ... that barron," he thinks as he steps over the severed head!
Suddenly the loud rumble of stone and earth comes crashing down. It's followed by the snuffing out of light. All is quiet until Trellus casts his Light spell. Anyone looking in Grymash's direction see a large half-orc frozen in place with a grimacing expression on his face. Grymash opens his eyes and wildly looks around and then back to his pack. "NO NO NO, GRYMASH NOT DO THAT!! ... no way ... me touch nothing ... not anywhere near thuh ... tha that place!!! Nah uhh ... no way!!" He forcefully points back to the cave entrance. "Grymash not going near walls, me healing pack!! (muttering) [sigh] high sun all day... this eats grass!!"
Despite Grymash's obvious short comings, he had become a decent healer. Ironically, his training in healing started during his time when he was held captive by the orc raiders. However, from their prespective, knowledge of healing not only kept them alive in the harsh wilderness of the grasslands, it also taught them how to be more efficient killers. Knowing where to strike was more important than just attacking wildly at an opponent. Quick kills were escential ... it was a warriors best chance of avoiding damage to himself. Especially with all the bloodthirsty creepers crawling about.
Grymash kneels down next to Jacob. He thinks that Jacob may be under the influence of the beast's poison. (Heal check 20) Gry checks the wound and isnt sure. He pulls out his healers kit and retrieves a special root, what he calls, a Yuk root! An herbal remedy that the orcs taught him. A powerful medicine used to neutralize poison. Grymash starts to chew on the root, mashing it up into a pasty pulp. The taste is extremely bitter and foul. If Jacob was to wake up he would see an contorting grimacing lip-smacking face of a huge grey-skinned hulk hovering over him. (A horrible time for him to wake up. His face would resemble a "bitter beer face!")
With his tongue dangling from his mouth, Grymash continues to mash the root in his hands. He occasionally spits to rid himself of the rancid flavor. Grymash applies the pulp to the wound and wraps it with bandage. (Heal check 24 against poison)
"Good ... that will clean BAD blood! I hope! Well, if it burns that mean it WORKING," Grymash says with a smile!!
Grymash runs his tongue down his sleeve!! "Ohhh YUKK!!! Malgo can chew his own ROOT!!"
Flea Friday May 2nd, 2003 9:42:24 PM
Flea looks up at the ranger with the curly brown hair, and gives him a little smile: "I could learn something from the way you use your bow, Anuk. Nice pick on the bounder."
The gnome follows Anuk over to Gilan, but steps back when the distraught druid and the crazy barbarian start carving into the bodies of the dead.
After the cave in, Flea retrieves Anuk's torch from the crevice in the wall, and hands it back to the ranger, saying: "I can see quite well in the shadows." She turns to Trellus, and adds: "If you wish, I can scout down the tunnel ahead of the group to see if it is safe?" She looks at the young cleric, awaiting instructions.
Jacob Friday May 2nd, 2003 10:25:49 PM
(Is Jacob alive and conscious what? I'm confused.)
DM ANTHONY: (Jacob is alive, breathing, and his eyes can move and look around however the rest of his body is stiff as a board. The heal seems to have stoped the posion from doing any more damage, but the current damage stays in place.)
Jacob Sunday May 4th, 2003 2:35:04 AM
Jacob manages to gurgle a weird sound from the floor as a glittery tusked red-eyed demon gapes at him...then, a sigh escapes his still form as he glances to Trellus and then Milo. He looks around without moving his head, most uncomfortable appearing. He waits...content to let the others move him, or whatever. He ponders going to sleep, but decides that even if he can't move, he wants to know if something happens...
Ezra & Enoch Sunday May 4th, 2003 1:48:28 PM
bouncing over to Sterlin, both spiders land on his head, then slowly crawl down his neck, and shoulders, one sitting placantly on each shoulder.
Milo Sunday May 4th, 2003 1:50:35 PM
looking over to Trellus Milo comments that he's paralized. Don't have anything that'll cure that I suppose?
Looking at Trellus with a sly smile, he says: you know, we can always see what a full bottle of wine and my special concoction does to someone. Doesn't look like he can object.
Grymash Sunday May 4th, 2003 3:14:22 PM
Grymash looks down at Jacob again. "Wait ... Trellus fix Jacob already!!?"
(sorry, i didnt notice that until I scrolled back a few posts.)
A long string of orcish curse words bellow out from Gry's embittered mouth. "YOCH BOW, math BOW, je shuv wee yo bogh!! Moach chyu may ew mah shoov, mah nong Yuk Yuk, ej ma choch CHEW!!!" Grymash continues to spit ... "Grymash .. yuk root taste ... blahh ... chew for nothing!!"
As soon as his verbal assault ends, a spark of awareness hits Grymash across the face. With a heavy regretful sigh, he calms and quietly shakes his head in disapproval of his behavior. He realizes that his eagerness to please blinded him from the needs of his pack. With his selfish outburst of wounded pride, he ignored the gravity of their dire situation. Quick survey of the scene Grymash sees that there are those who hurt far more than he, (looking at Gilan) and no amount of healing will cure them completely. However physical wounds are within Gry's abilities to treat. Gry pulls out his Curing Stick and says, "Come here Gilan ... you hurt!" He watches his actions with compassionate eyes. Now was a time for a priest of Gargul, not a barbarian.
Anuk Sunday May 4th, 2003 6:41:08 PM
As the dust settles, Anuk raises his torch high to provide as much additional light as possible for the others. Thinking back on the fight, he recalls that the bounder he felled ate something on the cavern floor. He decides to investigate and makes his way to the place where the object is to see what's there.
DM Anthony Monday May 5th, 2003 9:48:49 AM
For all the healing checks neither Jacob or Malgo seem to change in status.
Jenny babbles endlessly that she was coming after you guys, determined to be part of the pack, to prove herself to you guys and then she saw Malgo and thought he was going to sabatoge you all so she ran ahead to warn you all and ran right into a bounder, they started chassing and Malgo came up behind and picked her up and ran and then the ground gave way right undernieth them, they got up and sawy two bounders and the Rapke had fallen too. The Rapke rider dead and the foot gone. They gan down here and Malgo got into the cage. Malgo tried to run for help and got bitten and Jenny had to drag him back into the cage before he got eaten.
Trellus Monday May 5th, 2003 10:56:49 AM
Trellus finishes looking over Malgo, and leans back on his knees. "Well, he's stable, but I can't bring him out either..."
The young cleric trails off as he takes in the pack for the first time in almost a day.
Gry went Walker for a minute, but he seems to be coming out of it. Still, he doesn't look good. Probably upset about falling back there.
Gilan's pretty twisted too. Where's his other wasp? Oh light, that explains that, then.
Sterlin and Jenny...Sterlin and Jenny?!?....nah, can't be.
"Dudes," he calls out "everybody who needs healing see Gry and his wand."
He walks over to Gilan, and places a hand on his shoulder. "I'm sorry, Gilan," he says quietly. Noticing the heart in the druid's hands and Flea's reaction, he continues more loudly.
"Flea, we call ourselves the Blood Pack." Trells looks down at his own blood-soaked armor, "For obvious reasons." "We have met the Manfri, people who live in the Grass, and they have shown us about the rapke, and the Barons who ride them. The Barons are evil, and they can live after death by passing their memories on to their kin. We've learned the only way to truly kill them is to skin them and scatter their innards on the plains."
"That is why we've cut out their hearts. And that is why we will carry them out of here with us, until we can scatter them on the grass."
"Dudes, we have all been pretty twisted over the last day. Especially me. We've all made some mistakes. Again, especially me. But, no one here should feel they've let anyone down. We're all still alive, we've found Jenny, and we're gonna get out of here because we're weft and web."
"Flea, if you can check out the tunnel, that'd be shady. Be careful. My bet is they can see in the dark, too."
"We need to carry out Jake and Malgo. I can take Jake. Gry, I think you're the only one who can carry Malgo. Sterlin, could you please watch over Jenny?"
Trellus takes a cleansing breath from a very long speech.
"Ok dudes, let's get healed up and get out of here."
Trellus lines up for a shot from the Cure Light Wounds wand.
Grymash d8+5=11 d8+5=7 d8+5=11 d8+5=6 d8+5=11 Monday May 5th, 2003 11:03:37 AM
Grymash walks over to Gilan. "Drop bounder heart while Grymash heal you. Me not want to heal it too." Upon dropping the heart Grymash will tap Gilan's shoulder with his wand (11 points healing).
"Gilan, you do good job taking bounder heart, Gry not do any better. Want me to finish job?"
(not sure if you will allow multiple healings in a single non-combat post. disregard others if you see fit.)
IF Gilan still appears hurt, Gry will zap him again with the wand. (7 points healed) Grymash will also turn the wand on himself (11 points of healing). Gry will tap Trellus with the wand (reroll ones, second roll: 11 points of healing).
Grymash puts a supportive hand on Gilan's shoulder. "Gilan, go be with Yanb. Gry can finish this." He turns his gaze on the baron. His expression remains stoic as he calmly draws his daggers.
Gilan Monday May 5th, 2003 11:49:04 AM
Looks to Trellus as he comes over and gives him a half smile. "This one will not be coming back that is for sure." He drops the heart onto the floor of the cave so that it can be collected at a later time. The caving in of the hole they fell into does not seem to bother him or maybe it is that he is concentrating on other things.
Grymash meets him half way as the half-orc touches him with the wand. He feels the soothing cooling powers of healing flood into his body. Still that is only physical wounds that are healed and not the mental ones from the loss of a companion. "Thanks friend...no more for healing for me...I am fine and the wand will not cure the other things wrong."
With a sad look he cannot help but tear up a little as Grymash mentions being with his wasp at this time. He looks back to the now mutilated body of the bounder and growls. "That is impossible now...that thing ate her...chewed her up and then grinned at me." You see another flash of intense pain mixed with hatred pass across his face and harden his eyes.
With a shake of his head he lets it slip away and turns back to the pack. "Guess we should not stay here any longer than we have to." He starts making ready to head out with the rest.
Grymash Monday May 5th, 2003 12:43:13 PM
Grymash closes his eyes and bites his lip upon hearing what happened to Yanb. He starts to scold himself in his thoughts, "Gry, you stupid, brain-baked, grass-eating, half breed treadle!!" There are a lot of things he doesnt notice when he rages. Again, he only seems to cause pain when he tries to help.
Milo Monday May 5th, 2003 2:11:00 PM
walking up to Flea, Milo puts out his hand. my name is Milo, im the cook, you can say. glad to have you in the group.
going to Grymash after he heals Gilan he says: gry, buddy, dont beat yourself up. you didnt cause anyone to die today, it's part of life, we all are born, we live and die. it's the cycle.
then over to Gilan: instead of us weeping for Ynab's death, lets laugh about his life. remember when he got in my fathers mug, and then came flying out like a drunken sailor? flew right in to Grymash's hair and it took us 30 minutes to get Gry calmed down so we could get Ynab out. <smiles at the thought>
Sterlin Monday May 5th, 2003 2:27:22 PM
" Its o.k. Jenny. You've done well. Stick with me and well see if we can't all make it out of this together. "
Syler Monday May 5th, 2003 6:18:00 PM
Syler dusts himself off and observes those few people carving up bodies, removing hearts and whatnot. Noting this in the back of his mind. He pulls out his wineskin and take s a long draught from it. Wiping his lips with his sleeve he says," Yeay, we should probably get moving. The tunnels I had been searching were empty, but there is no telling what might be down these others. I may have just been lucky enough not to find anything."
Flea (Low Light Vision) d20+12=14 d20+8=21 d20+9=13 d20+5=23 Monday May 5th, 2003 6:34:53 PM
The rogue nods her head in acknowledgment of the explanation given by Trellus. "Blood Pack! Shady!"
Flea adjusts her pack, and checks her weapons. Suddenly she is overcome by the wonderful smell of...baking! She looks up from her task, and sees the halfling in an apron...his hand out in friendship. "Thanks, Milo" she says, smiling back at the wizard.
Lighthearted after the kind words of Anuk, Trellus, and Milo, Flea trots off down the tunnel. She scouts ahead of the pack, hiding in the shadows (Hide=14), sneaking quietly (Move Silently=21). She searches for a way out (Search=13) careful to notice any signs of danger (Spot=23).
(OOC: Anthony, did Flea find anything on the rapke and rider? Rolled a Search=28, May 1 post.)
DM ANTHONY: Nope NADA
Anuk d20+1=15 d20+6=12 d20+6=24 d20+2=10 Monday May 5th, 2003 10:42:10 PM
Anuk places his torch in one of the cracks that crawl down the cavern walls and he sits for a moment, grateful for the rest. He ponders the pack's situation, and begins thinking about how to get out of the cavern safely. Of course, even if they get out, they'll most likely be lost somewhere in the grasses of the plains. Well first things first...gotta get out of the cavern before worrying about what might come next.
He stands, stretches, then approaches each of the openings to leading to deeper parts of the cavern. He searches and listens for some hint of which cavern holds the path that will lead them safely to the surface.
(OOC: Anth, did Anuk find anything of interest when he went looking for whatever it was the bounder was chewing on? (last post))
DM ANTHONY : Nope Nada
Tiev Monday May 5th, 2003 11:51:49 PM
The wasp crawls lightly over Gilan looking for a quiet spot. It finally ends up in the pocket formed by the hood of the druid/fighter's green cloak. Tiev curls up in the comfortable and dark place for a well deserved rest.
LOG ON
