Andrath (AC20, 37/37 hp) Friday March 10th, 2006 12:49:09 AM
Andrath continues to move closer. [OOC: move to Y18].
DM Kathy d20+3=16 Friday March 10th, 2006 1:57:15 AM Harvest manages to duck the acid stream at the last second, then retrives a wand and aims it at the creature. A sickly green ray strikes the beast, who seems to shrivel a bit where it stands.
Bralin works his way up the side of the building and activates his tattoo.
Arminas moves in through the door and fires a shot at the creature. It strikes true and inflits a little damage. [I don't think Arminas has the Shoot on the Run feat, so he can't move both before and after he shoots.]
Any follows Arminas through the door and, seeing that Harvest took no hurt, continues across the room, trying to stay out of sight of the creature. [OOC: I altered the actions somewhat; you can't move, then take an action, then move again in a single round]
Andrath and Lorth begin moving across the front of the building, getting into position. [By my count, Andrath can make it to Z-18, unless there's a reason you wanted to stop earlier. Let me know.]
His breath weapon spent for the moment, the beast attempts to move out of the web. He manages to shove his way forward 5 feet.
Any (20 AC 20/20 HP) Friday March 10th, 2006 9:43:15 AM
Any's song takes but a moment, but in that moment first a spark, then a flame starts among the web spell of Harvest Moon. The flames roar across the web to the entrapped Chimera! Any then steps back slightly and prepares an arrow for the beast. HIs Bardic song begins again with a slightly dark, minor note.
Though evil in its many forms Confronts us from its loathsome home, Still we stand, we do not quail, For right shall win, and never fail!

He is horrified as he sees more fully how this monster is constructed. Who has twisted nature in such a way as to produce this creature! He sorrows for the animals used to create it, even as he so strongly desires to end the misery of its existence.

"HOLD IT WITHIN THE AREA OF WEB!" Harvest shouts. "It's claws and bites will be entangled in the sticky strands!"
The second flask of oil falls from her hand as she releases it. Quickly drawing the wand of shield, Harvest races out of the door, around the corner, and down toward the opening from which the beast is about to emerge.
"YOU! STAY!" Hiding around the corner, Harvest shouts commands at the chimera. How she possibly hopes to hold it at bay, is something she has most likely given little thought to.

Still waiting for Lorth, Bralin takes the opportunity to cast a spell of strength upon himself. [Bulls Strength]
And then Harvest runs past him right into the beast. "By the Stone," the dwarf mutters to himself. The girl is too impulsive.
The die is cast, and so Bralin adjusts.
He moves into the open, crossing into view, but out of reach of the chimera. Axe in hand, he waits for its attack. [Move to AB 10]

I will try to describe where I want to go, and if you could make the right move, that would be great, thanks. I will be back home on Thursday night, barring bad weather.]
Andrath, both weapons drawn, runs over to the north side of the animal, and presses himself up against the side of the building, trying to hide himself out of sight, and wait for his chance to flank. [OOC: Hide 23]
DM Kathy d20+3=12 Monday March 13th, 2006 12:01:57 AM Any casts a spell and sets the web alight. One square is now burning, and will soon spread. He then steps back away from the conflagration. [Casting a spell and starting Bardic Song are both standard actions, so you can't do both in this round.]
Arminas fires two shots at the creature, both of which hit. The beast snarles in pain and frustration. Arminas then steps back, away from the burning web.
Harvest pulls a wand and moves right up to the creature, shouting commands. She seems unconcerned about what it might do with its claws, or its vast number of teeth.
Bralin casts a spell to strengthen himself, then moves up so that Harvest isn't facing the monster alone.
Andrath works his way past the creature and in between the buildings, trying to get out of sight. [You'll need to spend a move action to hide next round, if you're going to do that. You double-moved this round, so you weren't able to hide when you got there.]
Moving as quickly as he can in his armor, Lorth steps up near Harvest.
The beast tries again to move out of the web, but this time is unable to wrench himself loose. The dragon head gnashes its teeth in sheer rage.

"Nay," Bralin replies to Harvest. "Lorth needs room."
He does nod in grateful acknowledgement of the protective spell. The shield will be of much use.

DM Kathy d20+10=25 d8+3=10 3d8(8+6+7)=21 Tuesday March 14th, 2006 12:26:40 AM Harvest uses one of her wands to cast Shield on Bralin, then draws a scroll from her pouch.
Bralin steps up and swings at the creature. It's a good blow, but the beast's hide and scales are surprisingly thick, and the attack is ineffective.
Any begins to sing, heartening his companions and giving them an extra edge.
Arminas fires two more arrows, and even with the strands of web between him and the monster, he is still able to hit it and do damage.
Lorth moves up to engage the creature, brushing past Harvest to avoid an attack of opportunity. He swings his sword, and connects. The beast roars with pain.
Trapped in the web and pressed by the melee fighters, the three-headed monster gives up on trying to move. Instead, the dragon head turns toward Lorth and Harvest. Another stream of acid shoots forth! Lorth and Harvest take 21 points of damage (Reflex save DC 17 for half).

Any takes a 5' step (to Q-13), allowing a better angle to attack the Chimera. His bowstring sings in counterpoint to his voice as Any sends an arrow on its way. He is frustrated by the webbing, and his arrow does not reach its target.
Now through the opening he can not only see the Chimera, but he also sees Lorth and Bralin attacking from in front of the monster, stepping in and out of range in a deadly dance.
Suddenly the Chimera's dragon head spits a stream of acid out into the courtyard! They must end this battle soon.
Any's song continues to sound,
"Our foe among us stands, The evil in him speaks. Our weapons make demands, Targets they do seek.
His blood will fall like rain, We turn away his powers. He shall feel the pain, The vict'ry shall be ours."

The fire continues to burn merrily, clearing the web as it goes.
Harvest manages to duck the acid stram yet again, and uses her wand to cast Shield on Lorth.
Bralin clobbers the creature with his axe, and the three-headed monster is beginning to look very hurt.
Arminas fires two shots, one of which connects. The creature's back and side now have several arrows sticking out of them.
Any tries his hand with an arrow, but can't get it through the web. His song continues to bolster his friends, though.
Andrath calls for the others to back away so they can lure the creature out.
Lorth is able to avoid the worst of the acid damage, but he lacks Harvest's nimbleness and can't quite dodge it all. Grimly determined, he strikes the creature again with his sword, then takes step back.
The monster roars again in rage and frustration, and tries to pull itself out of the web. It is held fast, however.

Any coughs lightly from the smoke of the burning web. As he does so, he discontinues his song, but its effects are still felt by all of the group. He notches another arrow, and fires at the Chimera, striking the beast just behind the shoulder. His vision from this point is beginning to be obscured by the fire, so he shifts over closer to Arminas (takes another 5' step diagonally). He had thought the fire would burn more quickly, when suddenly it flares up, and engulfs the webs stretched across the courtyard.

Life and Death. Harvest Moon takes in the struggles of the wounded beast. Gargul will soon open his doors for this one. In that split second the question comes to her: Why must this be so? Why are creatures created to kill, and, being opposed, be slain?
Gargul and Alemi. The god she had served and the one she serves now. Death and Life.
Automatically, and without thought, Harvest stores the wand of shield within her pack. The dance of Life and Death runs through her mind, the differences, the confluences.
In the end, she returns to herself and steps to the side of life. With a word, she calls Alemi's magic from the stick in her hand. And touching the arm of Paladin Lorth, steps behind him.

The web continues to burn merrily.
Harvest uses one of her wands to cure Lorth. The paladin is restored to full health, and offers his thanks.
The ruined abbey is now silent but for your own footfalls and the faint whooshing of the burning web.

Arminas sees the Chimera collapse--it has stopped breathing--at last its tortured life is at an end. He quickly exits the building, going out to join the others examining the dead beast.
"Your last stroke was well done friend Bralin. To kill a creation such as this was a mercy. Those responsible for such an unnatural joining of animals should pass the same way."
Arminas stays alert, and wonders aloud,
"I wonder where Remo is in all of this, if the beast did not bring him here as a midnight snack."

At Arminas' question, any is reminded of their task, and his bow is raised slightly, arrow nocked, and he says,
"This beast did not work alone in defeating the companions of Remo. There were men with it. Let us search to see if he is here, or if he has been taken to a further keep. This place may only have been the lair of the Chimera, and its human companions may have lived elsewhere."
If all are in agreement, he will aid in the search of the abandoned monastery, hoping to find this Remo, or some trace of where he was taken.

But in future, when we attack one large creature, I think it makes the most sense for all of us to be able to reach it, or we keep it trapped in the web and take it out with missile weapons." Then he turns his head and cocks his ear, to hear for anything that might have been disturbed by the noise of the combat. [OOC: Listen check of 31]

DM Kathy Friday March 17th, 2006 12:57:24 AM Harvest dismisses the Web spell, and the fire burns itself out shortly thereafter.
Any and Arminas join the rest of the group, and you all begin to discuss strategy. The signs back at the battle scene clearly indicate that there were humanoids, but looking around you see no sign of them here--just the broken hulk of the ex-chimera. Of course, you haven't explored the entire complex yet.
From where you are standing, you can see that several buildings face this central courtyard; the four that you have already seen (i.e., the four on the map), plus more buildings farther back. The arched walkways link most of the buildings.
None of the buildings is in pristine repair; all have sustained weather damage and a few have had minor collapses. Random bits of masonry are scattered on the ground.
Searching the complex is probably a good idea--but where are you going to begin?
Arminas -- Sub post d20+10=17 d20+10=18 d20+10=14 Friday March 17th, 2006 12:08:58 PM
Arminas examines the Chimera up close. He is attracted and repulsed at the same time over this monstrous creation.
"Surely those who created this beast are of a twisted mind, and should be punished for their affront to Mother Wold."
Then turning to the others,
"I will search the area for more tracks. Perhaps I can find where Remo was taken--if he still lives."
Any Friday March 17th, 2006 12:13:10 PM
"I will accompany you friend Arminas. None should be alone untill we are sure of our position. I can at the least act as a second pair of eyes and a guard for your back."
Before leaving, he quickly retrieves his gear from the edge of the forest where it had been cached.

She had left a wand on the ground by the treeline. Such things were not to be so thoughtlessly forgotten.
Harvest returns the wand of curing to her pack and trots around to the front of the building to retrieve the wand of message. From across the stretch of open ground, the little brown monk raises her eyes from under her crest of hair and eyes the line of the roof.
Perhaps from above she would see something that could not be seen from the ground. Coming down would be a simple thing for her.
From her pack, she draws a simple scroll of Jumping. Cast the spell, sprint across the open space and leap up the wall ...
But her hands do not quite catch, and with a slow slide down the side of crumbling masonry, Harvest alights upon the ground. Back up. Try again. Back up. Try again. And again. And Again ... Six times. But on the sixth, Harvest clings to the wall, climbing upwards toward the roof.

Question How high are these buildings?

Bralin nods wordlessly in reply to Arminas' remarks about killing the chimera, although he's confused about the elf's sentiment. Whether the beast was natural or unnatural is not relevant.
It attacked. Bralin defended. It died. Further discussion is unnecessary.
As everyone splits up, the dwarf decides to keep an eye on Harvest. From the ground he watches her climb to the roof.

Not hearing anything in the complex, Andrath moves to the small building at the extreme east of the compound [OOC: the easternmost building on your map, Kathy]. He tries to find an entrance, and moves inside to search. [OOC: Search 29]
