As Zeoll creeps forward, Theo tries to work out what is going on and Jack sails overhead, seemingly unperturbed by the battle below, the party hunt for any sign of the missing snake. Rose casts See Invisible on Brahmah and the minotaur sees the snake directly in front of him!
Using her keen ears Ashira pinpoints the location of the invisible naga and takes a swing. The blow connects!
Vorelle and Khuun hold back, waiting to see what will happen next. Their answer is not long in coming. Shrieking in retaliation the blood-streaked naga flickers back into view, its razor fangs latching on to Ashira's forearm and biting down hard (18 hp, Fort save DC 19 or take 7 points CON damage).
This is the moment Vorelle and Khuun have been waiting for (OOC: the joys of held actions!). They strike as one, their blows heading unerringly for their target's throat. They hit home... only to discover they have hit nothing but empty air!
A hideous grin splits the naga's face as it licks Ashira's blood from its glistening lips. "You cannot hit me now, foolss, but I can hit you!"
Khuun bellows in frustration.

"Aw! Thanks." He says to Rose. The minotaur smiles sinisterly and goes full out on the serpent. (with Zeoll's song, AC 19, 18, 23 and 26(crit threat 16), for 11, 10, 12 and 10 damage)
Jack Friday February 17th, 2006 7:06:06 PM
His attention at watching the skies has been diverted. Actually he has gotten bored. So Jack will fly down to the group landing to the far north side of it, but still with in sight.
Rose d20+11=12 d4+4=6 d20+9=13 d20+10=20 d20+10=13 Saturday February 18th, 2006 3:20:35 AM
Rose is startled when the snake woman says that she can't be hit, and is proved right. However, she tries to strike at the now visible creature even as she tries to think of what may be causing people to miss.

Ashira grunts as the naga digs into her arm. As the poison flows into her blood, Ashira's knees wobble (Fort.=18). Sweat trickles from her brow and drips into her eyes. "Is that the best you've got?" she taunts unconvincingly. (AC17,17 23 for 5, AC9)
Theodore and Macaw HP 38/38 AC 21(dodge & mage armor) Sunday February 19th, 2006 6:24:08 PM
"Get it! Get it!" he hollers, bouncing up and down.
Vorelle [AC 22; HP 64/76] d20+13=32 Sunday February 19th, 2006 10:34:27 PM
Vorelle isn't sure what is going on. Either the creature is there (in which case she and Khuun should have hit it), or it isn't (in which case it shouldn't have hit Ashira).
She decides she doesn't have time to figure it out just now, and concentrates instead on helping Ashira. Maybe somebody else can figure out how to kill this thing.
[Fighting defensively. Succeed at using the Aid Another action to give Ashira an AC boost. Ashira is +2 to AC for the next round.]
Zeoll (HP23 of 69 AC12) (Inspired) d8+1=4 Monday February 20th, 2006 6:52:59 AM
Zeoll stops singing and drinks a potion (Inspire Courage lasts 5 rounds from NOW).
He heals a little.
Brahmah Monday February 20th, 2006 10:26:02 AM
Brahmah looks around more invisible foes.

As Zeoll heals, Jack lands and Vorelle supports Ashira, the crew go to work. Things don't start too well; Rose manages to connect with a large gorse bush much to the naga's amusement. Then Brahmah's blow whistles wide, though he could have sworn he was aiming right at that smug maw.
"You ssee?" it hisses. "You can't hit me foolss! I'm invincible! I'm-- aargh!" The foul creature's gloating is cut short as Brahmah's next two swings hack into the creature, along with powerful strikes from Ashira and Khuurn. It flickers and shifts, phasing back into view a good foot or two away from where it seemed to be.
"Yer dead" grunts Khuurn, giving the creature a swift kick just make sure.
The big ogre sticks out his tongue and closes one eye as he takes careful aim. Then with an almighty hack he chops the naga in two. Another blow leaves him with a three inch thick naga steak, dripping with sticky black blood.
"Kitty, cowhead, this Khuurn's naga!" grins the ogre dangerously, tucking in and waving them in the direction of the culinary delights of naga number two.
The time is 4.15 am.
Theodore and Macaw HP 38/38 AC 21(dodge & mage armor) Monday February 20th, 2006 11:59:23 AM
"Is everyone okay?" Theodore asks, peering at the chopped up naga. "Shall we continue on?"
Brahmah Monday February 20th, 2006 1:11:29 PM
"Well, that was fun."

Tratain comes out of his daze when the last Naga is killed.
He moves about the Party Gathering them together and Tending to the wounded.
He first Tends to the poison flowing through Ashira (Heal Check 34, Ashira should have no problem with the Second Fort Save.)
Tratain says "It is almost Time for my daily Prayers, is anyone else in Need of Healing? Ashira I can Cure the Damage Done by the poison after I have finished my prayers for the Day."
Brahma Healed for 34 Ashira Healed for 57 Zeoll Healed for 46 Vorelle Healed for 12 Tratain Healed for 16

Jack Monday February 20th, 2006 3:30:43 PM
Jack watches as the Ogre plays with his prize. He looks around at the others. They must have had ti find the beast something to eat.
Zeoll (HP69 AC12) (Inspired) d20+1=21 Monday February 20th, 2006 9:38:36 PM
Zeoll is completely healed by Tratain, and his happiness is clear not only in his toothy grin but in his perky tail. "Many thanks, noble Trratain! I had fearred that should I die, my out-of-time soul would not know wherre to go!"
The liontaur claps the ogre on the back. "Good worrk, my frriend! Yourr battle prrowess is amazing! But I want loot morre than steak!"
Zeoll takes a quick look through the snakes' logs to see if they had anything of worth. (Search 21! Nat 20!)
Then he is eager to get back to the quest.
Ashira (AC21, HP51/51, -7 Con) d20+12=21 d20+11=16 Tuesday February 21st, 2006 12:02:30 AM
Ashira looks up gratefully at Tratain. "Thank you. I would appreciate your ministerings once you can." Casting a quick glance at the now dead naga, Ashira is anxious to get going, but she waits patiently for Zeoll to finish his search. As she waits, Ashira checks to see if they have attracted any more visitors (Spot=21, Listen=16).
Rose 43/52 hp Tuesday February 21st, 2006 7:33:03 AM
Rose patiently waits her turn to be healed, she's not very hurt so will wait until the others are healed.
Brahmah (AC 22, 115hps, Bears Endurance) d20+11=20 Tuesday February 21st, 2006 2:09:53 PM
"Thank you Tratain."
He continues to look around for more invisible foes. (See Invis, 20 Spot)
DM Carl: Snack boots Tuesday February 21st, 2006 3:32:38 PM
The party gratefully accept Tratain's tender care.
Zeoll's rummaging turns up the bones of a number of creatures in the area, including at least two humans. Inside another log he finds some rusty weapons, an empty vial and a pair of boots stuffed with dead tarantulas.
Vorelle d20+16=32 Tuesday February 21st, 2006 9:20:29 PM
Now completely healed, Vorelle stammers her thanks to Tratain. As the treasure-finding winds down, she once again prepares to find the best path to the encampment.
[Survival 32]
Theodore and Macaw HP 38/38 AC 21(dodge & mage armor) d20+18=38 Tuesday February 21st, 2006 9:45:01 PM
Theodore uses his wand of detect magic on the stuff Zeoll uncovered. (Spellcraft check 38, natural 20, to determine spell school, if applicable.)
"I'm ready to go," he suggests. "Were these...things...working for the enemy?"
Jack Tuesday February 21st, 2006 10:12:35 PM
Jack watches as the others do their thing.
Ashira (AC21, HP51/51, -7 Con) Wednesday February 22nd, 2006 12:08:51 AM
Leaning against a nearby tree, Ashira waits patiently for the others to finish up. She takes several deep breaths as she waits feeling unusually weak.
Zeoll Wednesday February 22nd, 2006 6:10:34 AM
Zeoll asks Tratain if there is anything he can do for Ashira.
He thanks Theo for looking the "loot" over.
He suggests that the party needs to get moving.
Brahmah Wednesday February 22nd, 2006 11:38:42 AM
He stands there, waiting.
DM Carl: Empty yer boots Wednesday February 22nd, 2006 6:42:02 PM
The party decide to move on, but not before Theodore determines that the boots are giving off a moderate transmuation aura. Emptied of half-chewed tatantulas the boots are stashed away for later perusal as the party set off again.
Khuurn munches happily upon his naga steak, dragging half the dead creature behind him.
The sky begins to fractionaly lighten as dawn dawn edges nearer (4.30am)
Theodore and Macaw d20+5=7 Wednesday February 22nd, 2006 9:22:33 PM
Seeing the sunrise, Theodore yawns as a natural reaction to the early morning. He's curious about the boots, but other than telling the others of what he discovered, he pushes them from his mind.
Above, Macaw soars, keeping eye out for the party. (Spot 7)
Zeoll d20+24=28 Wednesday February 22nd, 2006 9:57:03 PM
Zeoll says, "Had I feet made forr boots, I'd wearr them, but since I do not, someone else can don these."
[OOC: Use them or lose them! No point in saving them for the next adventure! LOL!]
Zeoll presses on, looking to the rangers for directions.
As he walks, he engages the ogre in conversation. "Did you everr think, my frriend, that if we had Lorrd Garrgullus' little toy, then we could be ourr own lorrds, and eat snake steak every night? Go to warr when we want, fight who we want, no bosses, no orrderrs, nobody telling us what to do? That would be sweet, hey?"
Diplomacy 28.
Vorelle d20+16=25 d20+20=33 d20+20=38 Wednesday February 22nd, 2006 10:14:37 PM
"I a-already h-h-h-have m-m-magic b-b-b-boots," Vorelle says to anyone who asks. Mostly, though, she concentrates on finding their route. Now that they are getting closer, she also makes an effort to remain unseen.
[Survival 25, Hide 33, Move Silently 38]
Tratain Wednesday February 22nd, 2006 11:28:40 PM
When Dawn arrives, Tratain tells the others that he needs some time to Replenish his spells.
After spending Time in prayer he is ready again to travel with the others. Before they set out Tratain casts Restoration upon Ashira curing the damage done by the poison.
Ashira Wednesday February 22nd, 2006 11:28:52 PM
Knowing that cursed items can have ugly effects, Ashira decides to wait a little longer before voluntering to take the boots... She'd hate to have to explain to Rigging how she'd changed sex.
Rose Thursday February 23rd, 2006 7:12:12 AM
Rose tries to keep up with the others, but gradually falls behind (unless that is the others are walking slower for her?) Everyonce in a while she run to catch up, but it's not much use.
