good maps cayzle, how did you make them?
Cayzle Saturday December 16th, 2006 5:51:30 AM
Thanks, Loretta. Although for the games that I DM I usually use MS Excel (check out the Crescent Valley fight going on right now, for example), for these I used FreeHand, a drawing program I got at work.

Theodores yelps in pain when he is struck by the harpy. He quickly reloads his crossbow and fires at the harpy again. (Hits AC 10)
DM Shegger Round4 Sunday December 17th, 2006 9:17:46 PM
(OOC - Actually, I misspoke when I said the bridge served as the northeast border. It's actually the northwest border. The hallway you all went through to get to the tower study is the bridge, on the second floor.)
Vorelle sends three shafts into the harpy that had damage Theodore. The monster drops from the sky onto the jagged rocks below. She twitches for a moment and is still.
Rose summons forth an unseen servant and Piper pulls a wolverine from the bag of tricks which appears on the bridge. (Using the unseen servant to entangle the harpy with a rope is beyond the scope of the spell.)
Dietrich finishes off the the other harpy as she sails by, cleaving one of her wings from her body, she spirals into the courtyard and ceases to move.
With both harpies down, Sharif, Arngrim, and Leo move back into the open. Sharif pokes the harpy Dietrich felled with his sword and looks up at the floating warrior. "Nice hit! Do we still need to stay in the courtyard?"
After a quick recollection, the party still hasn't explored the stairs leading up from the dining hall, the spiral stairs continuing up through the tower, the gate leading out of the courtyard, and the door across the bridge.
Dietrich AC 20 HP 65/71 blessed , air walk Monday December 18th, 2006 6:17:28 AM
Dietrich moves down before the spell expires. He asks the youths:
"Have you been hurt?"
Then, unfortunatelly, heīll have to reprehend them again: "I never meant for you to stay IN the courtyard, where you can be seen and attacked by enemies! You should just have stayed inside, at the door, looking out that the maingroup was not attacked from behind. But alright, no harm done."
"So, whereīre we going to explore now? Iīd say the door across the bridge, as it is the next level to look at. Other suggestions?
Vorelle d20+12=15 d20+12=18 Monday December 18th, 2006 10:33:07 AM

"Here, Theo, let me see your wound," Berlon says as he inspects the young mage. Even though the wound isn't *that* bad, he says "Better safe than sorry, no?"
With that he cast Cure Light on Theo, healing 7 hp. (Cure Light cast spontaneously replacing Nystul's)
Oni Monday December 18th, 2006 7:26:43 PM
"Looks lie i will stasy here then. Thosestars are too old, and i dont trust my weight on them. So loolks like the 3 become 4." He smiles at the youths, asnd winks at Dietrich.
Theodore & Macaw Monday December 18th, 2006 9:48:02 PM
"Thank you, Berlon." He smiles at his friend as he tests his shoulder out.
Slinging his crossbow across his back, he looks down on the boys from Dirt City. Although he thinks it would be safer for everyone if they all stuck together, he lets Dietrich make the decision.
He's the tactician, after all, he thinks.
"Yes, let's see what's through this door," he says pointing to the door on the far side of the bridge.
DM Shegger Monday December 18th, 2006 9:48:36 PM
Dietrich descends to the courtyard and berates the Dirt City boys for a moment about not staying by the door.
"But we were!" Leo says in complaining tone.
"Yeah!" Arngrim agrees. "We only opened the door when we heard the scream. Then we saw those...things...and came out to see if you needed help."
"So," Sharif begins. "Can we stick with you guys, now? I don't want to watch a stupid door, anymore."
Dietrich recommends checking out the door across the bridge first.
Vorelle doesn't mind where they go next, but she nocks an arrow, deciding to go it careful.
Berlon kindly heals Theodore's wounds, who thanks the gnome for his generosity.
Oni decides to stick with the Dirt City boys to keep them company.
Theodore agrees with Dietrich about checking out the bridge door first.

Dietrich listens to his friends and the boys.
"Alright then, stay with us. Though having a rearguard looking over that door was not only to get you out of harms way, you know?
Letīs move."
Dietrich beckons for the scouts to have the first look at the door and listen if thereīs anything behind it. He sheaths the sword and takes the longbow again.
"The oneīs that are not busy at the door, look out for trouble coming from the skies or other places. With all that screaming, weīre certainly being expected."

Dietrich gives in and decides to let the boys from Dirt City stick with them. The three look very happy to hear this news.
The warrior takes up his longbow and asks the scouts to open the door and take a quick look-see.
Vorelle and Theodore keep their eyes peeled while Rose moves across the bridge and scrutinizes the door.

DM Shegger Wednesday December 20th, 2006 9:35:47 PM
Everyone gathers on the bridge as Rose pushes the door open. Beyond the door, it appears to be a bedroom.
The room is roughly twenty feet by twenty feet. There's a window to the west, and a door to both the south and the east.
There is a goodly sized bed against the north wall and a writing desk in the southwest corner. A wardrobe closet adorns the east wall.

Theodore sits on the bed for a moment to see if it might be comfortable. Then he proceeds to examine the contents of the desk. After Rose has inspected it first, of course.
DM Shegger Friday December 22nd, 2006 11:24:54 PM
Vorelle inspects the room for signs of recent but discovers nothing out of the ordinary.
Dietrich urges caution as he floats into the air with a silly grin upon his face.
Rose inspects the desk and wardrobe but finds nothing of interest on or in either. They both appear to have been made by ship timbers. Seeing as their's no trees to be found on this island, the furniture was probably made from busted up boats and ships.
Vauhwyt urges Rose to inspect everything and drag her over should she find any traps. In the meantime, Vauhwyt decides to sit at the convenient desk and add onto the map she's been keeping.
Theodore sits on the bed but quickly stands back up after an ominous creak. Clearly the bed is too old to support any weight. Even that of a skinny wizard. He meanders over to the desk to sift through drawers and such. Much like Rose, he finds nothing but blank parchment that crumbles at a touch and an ink jar with dried up ink.

"So what's the plan again?" he asks nobody in particular...
Theodore & Macaw Tuesday January 2nd, 2007 9:52:12 PM
Theodore moves away from the desk. "We are here to find the captain's daughter. And I don't think she's in here."
DM Shegger Tuesday January 2nd, 2007 9:52:35 PM
Vorelle sees nothing of interest and moves back out onto the bridge. A light drizzle has begun, now. The little stone island begins to get slippery.
Rose inspects the room again, but turns up nothing new of interest.
Vauhwyt gazes about the room in a sudden state of confusion.
Oni stands strong and straight as he keeps an eye out for danger. He hopes to set a good example for the Dirt City boys.
Instead, they mill about the room, inspecting the walls and the two doors.
Sharif stands next to the southern door and looks back at the party. "Should we go through here," he asks in a loud whisper.
Berlon chides Theodore and asks what the plan is. Theodore answers by saying they're searching for the captain's daughter.
Along with the southern door, there is another door to the east. Both are closed. Both appear to be made of a thin, cheap wood and lockless.
Dietrich Wednesday January 3rd, 2007 6:23:30 AM
Dietrich is ok with moving on, but only when everybody is ready for combat. He stays with the longbow and waits for someone to open the door.

Vorelle's longbow is still at the ready as she waits for the next door to be opened.
Theodore & Macaw Wednesday January 3rd, 2007 9:27:36 PM
Seeing that everyone is waiting for their next move, Theodore moves to the southern door and opens it. He peeks his head through, if there is no obvious danger and reports to the group what he has discovered.

"I nominate Theo as Vice President In Charge Of Opening Doors."
You can't tell if he's serious or not.
DM Shegger Thursday January 4th, 2007 10:05:48 PM
Dietrich and Vorelle stand ready as Theodore opens the southern door and pops his head out.
"It looks like another hall," he says to his friends. "There's a stair going down. A door to the west, and two to the east. I didn't see anyone."
Berlon bestows a title on the skinny wizard while Shariff moves past Theodore into the hall. Leo and Arngrim follow quickly, weapons drawn, eager for some action.

While Rose opens the other door, Dietrich stays by her, longbow ready.
At Berlons comment, Dietrich says:
"I donīt find it a good idea for Theo to be opening doors. Iīd suggest for ALL future doors to be examined and opened either by our scouts, or by the more robust members of the party. Theo is propably the most inappropriate guy for this job and should always stay in a guarded secondary or terciary position, from where he can safely use his spells to support us."
"The next doors should be examined and opened by the scouts, closely accompanied by clerics, for the case that more undead are ahead, and than some warrior for firepower."

Vauhwyt sticks with the group, counting on Dietrich's good sense4 to get them out of trouble.

"I-I c-can help with d-d-doors," says Vorelle softly. She suspects that Rose and Vauhwyt are better at it, but she is willing to pitch in if needed.
Berlon - Eagles Splendor 41r, Air Walk (Dietrich) 694r Sunday January 7th, 2007 1:14:58 PM
Berlon sighs again. "Theo," he says quietly, "I was just kidding about you opening the doors..." He smiles, ready to move on.
Theodore & Macaw Sunday January 7th, 2007 9:59:48 PM
"I'm not completely helpless," Theodore replies to Dietrich. "I may not be as strong as you, but I don't need to be coddled."
He seems a little perturbed at being treated like a glass rod.
"We should keep moving," he says, moving into the hall. "The longer we stay in one place, the more likely we'll draw unwanted attention to ourselves."
DM Shegger Sunday January 7th, 2007 10:00:09 PM
Rose opens the eastern door while Dietrich covers her with his bow. She discovers a privy. She reports that the room is ten by twenty feet. The privy is located againts the north wall.
Vauhwyt waits patiently for the others to explore the area.
Oni chuckles at the Dirt City boys' impatience.
Vorelle and Berlon are ready to continues forward.
Theodore moves into the hall and suggests the rest follow.
The three Dirt City boys move about the hall and take up places by the three doors, waiting on the rest.
Vorelle d20+12=14 Monday January 8th, 2007 12:19:53 AM
In an effort to keep things moving, Vorelle steps up and listens at the next door. For some reason, though, she finds it difficult to concentrate.

"But you ARE right, we need to move along..."
Theodore & Macaw Monday January 8th, 2007 8:34:30 PM
"All right," he says when Berlon tries to calm him. "I guess that's okay, then."
He watches Vorelle as she listens at a door. Unless she hears something, he'll ask one of the Dirt City boys to open the door, trying to play by Dietrich's guidelines.

She stands directly behind the newbie opening the door, ready to protect him (by poking over his head with a longspear) if he gets in trouble.
Or she will open the door if there is any problem.
Dietrich Tuesday January 9th, 2007 7:29:18 AM
Dietrich listens to Theo and says: "Come on man, I know about your power. Itīs just about using everyone according to his capabilities and characteristics. And yours are not for opening doors and staying at the front line."
The warrior hopes the next doors will be checked following the general plan, as heīs very aware of the truth in Mookieīs comment.

DM Shegger Tuesday January 9th, 2007 9:40:02 PM
It seems everyone's for keeping things moving. No one wants to stick around any longer than they have to.
Vorelle takes the initiative and puts an ear against the western door. She doesn't hear anything, but is the first to admit that means nothing.
Theodore asks Sharif to open the door. The fighter quickly obliges, pushing the portal inward, Vauwhyt standing directly behind him. Beyond lies a balcony that overlooks the sea. This probably served as a relaxing spot to watch the sun set over the vast waters.
Just this moment, a curtain of rain and choppy waves serve as the landscape. The light drizzle is growing progressively stronger. Further away, you notice a tell-tale flashing among the clouds to the north.
A storm's a-brewin'!
Back in the hall, Leo and Arngrim wait by the eastern and southeastern doors. There is also a stair leading down, probably to the dining hall where the dispatched zombies lay.

DM Shegger Wednesday January 10th, 2007 9:35:21 PM
Berlon recommends keeping the group together. Everyone else seems to be in agreement. Dietrich and Vorelle lead the way through the hall to the eastern door.
Vauhwyt steps up to push the door inwards, revealing a small library. The room is 35' x 20', with a semicircular window seat for reading. Two bookcases face each other from the north and south of the room. There are seven tables around the room, each against the wall, used for studying literature, no doubt.
The room appears to be empty. It is also quite dark. The storm outside is impedeing the natural light. To be able to see properly, a light source will need to be produced.
The Dirt City boys peer into the room, but wait for an order to enter before doing so.

Rose reaches into her belt pouch and pulls out some ribbons that glow as brightly as a torch. She puts one in her hair where it will shine whereever she looks, ties one to Vauhwyt's tail (cause it looks nice), ties one around Piper's neck so she can look up high, and ties one in a big bow in Dietrich's hair.
Rose will then begin looking around the room especially checking out if she wants to take any books home, and looking for secret hiding places or passage ways and for traps.
Piper stays right above rose's head looking at the books and stuff on the top of the shelves.

Other than that, the warrior waits for the search of the room. Libraries are excellent places for hidden doors...

With his eyes still adjusting to the low light, Berlon will produce an Everburing Torch to help with the situation. He watches Rose produce and apply the ribbons, but manages to suppress any comments about the pretty, pretty bow in Dietrich's hair.
Instead, he focuses on a search of the room.

Vorelle smiles at the pretty glowing ribbons, then frowns when one is tied onto Dietrich. I think sometimes Rose goes too far, she thinks.
The light is useful, though, and she steps into the room to take a quick look around.

Theodore & Macaw Thursday January 11th, 2007 10:05:08 PM
Theodore tries to peer over shoulders when Rose and Berlon provide light. Otherwise, he stays out of the way, curious what tomes the library might contain.
DM Shegger Thursday January 11th, 2007 10:05:48 PM
As soon as Rose produces her light sources, you are greeted by a horrible sight.
Three distorted shadows are creeping towards you with malicious intent. They appear to be about fifteen feet to the northeast from the door you are standing at. The southernmost bookcase is five feet directly east of the door.
When the lights come on, the shadows snarl something unintelligible and scatter. One breaks north, the other northeast, and the last southeast. Each going for darkness.
Berlon produces an everburning torch to add to the illumination while the rest of the party take stock of the library.
(OOC - I will consider Vauhwyt's detect magic uncast, unless she still wants to have cast it. First round of combat, ladies and gents! Unless you wish to leave the library and look elsewhere.)

Rose immediatly points her finger at the nearest shadow and chants some words. Two red dots shoot from her finger and hit it.
She also tries to recall anything she may know about the creatures.
ooc 1: ok everyone if you dont like rose tying bows on Dietrich's head dont forget that Dietrich is 2-3 feet taller than the 3'3" rose. Which means that all that had to happen was either Dietrich took the bow from me or he bent down for me to tie it.
ooc 2: Hey Shegger I guess this fight gives you time to make me that list of books :) when can I use the stuff rose got from the xmas tree?
Dietrich AC 20 HP 65/71 , air walk d20+8=18 d8+5=10 Friday January 12th, 2007 6:16:16 AM
When he sees the enemy, Dietrich immediatelly fires his longbow: hits ac 18; damage 10 (magical)
Then he lets the bow down and fastdraws the great-sword. "Rose, back! Warriors, Clerics, forward!"
ooc: Dietrich let Rose tie the light on him (very useful). He just didnīt like the girly part, but didnīt say anything. I was just trying to interact with Roseīs excellent roleplay by stating the warriorīs internal reaction to it.

Berlon tries to get a better look at exactly what they are looking at. Are they undead? (Spot check 8)
Seeing the others fire, he also lets loose with a heavy crossbow bolt.
Heavy Crossbow attack (standard action) hits AC 7 (nat 1)
Cursing his bad aim, he drops his crossbow at his feet (free action) and draws his mace. (move action)
Vauhwyt and Mookie Friday January 12th, 2007 7:27:12 PM
Vauhwyt says, "Let them come to us out of the shadows!"
She readies an attack with her spear, and hopes to get an AoO as well as they approach (2 spear thrusts -- stats to follow.)
