Milo Sunday May 20th, 2007 9:06:47 PM
"If we're simply going to wait for them to show up and attack us here, that is fine. However, I'm goin' to spend the evening, not locked in a root cellar." The halfling heads up to the backyard to make camp and keep watch.

Game # 3 The Emeral Dragons For the week of May 14,2007
Gunther (SR 13, AC30, HP127/127) Charm Animal, Enlarge Person: Delilah (AC15, HP72/72) d20+8=12 d20+7=27 d20+7=22 d20+7=13 Monday May 21st, 2007 8:17:08 AM
Thankful for Athalorn's help, Gunther does his portion of the watch (Spot=12, Deliala=27 (nat. 20), Cub 1=22, Cub 2=13) and then gets a few hours of sleep outside. He does not worry about getting a full night's sleep as he does not have spells to prepare like many of the others. His rest is fitful, full of nightmares about vampires...and big cats running away in the middle of the night...
Falin (AC 23 HP 70) Monday May 21st, 2007 10:00:01 AM
Keeping an eye out during the night Falin coordinates with Gunther when he is going to get his 2 hours of sleep.
In the morning hours Falin will go back into the cellar to see what is going to happen.
Lian Monday May 21st, 2007 10:51:17 AM
The monk waits for Catacomb orders from the rest of the Emeralds and departs. [Contact me by email if you want anything from the Catacombs. :)]
Brother Bertram Monday May 21st, 2007 2:46:10 PM
Bertram offers to sleep in the backyard. If there was going to be a battle with these type creatures, he would feel better being towards the front line of contact. He offers to keep the last watch again out of habit.
Donara (HP 26 AC 16) Monday May 21st, 2007 6:15:34 PM
Donara spends the night in the root cellar. Not wanting to spend the night outside just in case. He does offer to take a shift keeping watch though.
In the morning he will get up and study his spells.

Ingrge:AC 28: HP 102/102: See invisibility, Arcane sight, Contingency Monday May 21st, 2007 7:06:46 PM
Ingrge listens to what Karen has to say about the cube and then has a couple of final questions.
"Karen, How much of the cube is normally lit by the sun when this wall of force is functioning normally? Oh and we should be able to teleport into the grounds just outside the cube, yes?"
Ingrge then heads up and out to find some space in a tree or roof top nearby where he and Delintu can catch some rest.
Delintu joins Ingrge outside to get out of the closed space of the root cellar.
Olana Monday May 21st, 2007 9:37:04 PM
Olana will stay up top, in the yard, and will be on watch for a good part of the night. Elves were extremely light sleepers, and with vampires running around, well...
She's interested in the answer to Ingrge's question about light, and the cube, too.
Dm JIm: Final Preparations Monday May 21st, 2007 11:33:23 PM
The Emerald Dragons make plans well into the night. K'Nara gives Lian the teleportation ring and the monk waits for order from everyone before departing for the Catacombs in plateau city.
Karen informs Ingrge that she has teleported inside the compound as expects that will work, just the Cube is on lock down.
Karen also tells Ingrge that the wall of force window gave acceptable light but not powerful light to the center portion of the Cube. "The center is section of the Cube is open. The rooms and workshops are along the walls of the Cube. The center is open for bottom floor to top. The levels are ajoined by stairs and balconies."
The morning dawns a bit cloudy and Falin, Anthalorn and Gunther see that Delilah has killed a neighbor dog as it is still tied to its dog house and Delilah dragged it over, and she must have been very quite. Delilah is attempting to conjole her cubs into attacking the dog.
------------------------------
Map tomorrow as I hope to be on a more normal schedule.
Ingrge:AC 28: HP 102/102: See invisibility, Arcane sight, Contingency Tuesday May 22nd, 2007 6:30:14 AM
As morning breaks, Ingrge and Delintu finish their last moments of studying and head down to the others.
K'nara, I suggest that as soon as Lian gets back we buff up and then teleport onto the Cube's grounds in two batches: some by ring and some with me by spell. Then we proceed from there. I have a few things in mind.
Lian (AC 35, Hps 94)[AC 28FF, AC 20FF nomagic, TAC 27] Tuesday May 22nd, 2007 10:35:00 AM
The monk appears a short time later, wearing nice new boots and a large ornate carpet tied like a bedroll to his back. "Here you go Ingrge." He hands the Weapon Mage a sack of goods. "I purchased a few things for the group to split up if we like.
I bought some holy water, sunrods to cut the shadows down while inside the Cube and toy or two that might make things a bit more interesting."
He unties the bedroll, flattens it out, steps carefully on top and says, "Hover." The carpet rises gently off the floor. "Now the archers can take to the air or someone can accompany Athalorn while he flies about. I bought a Spider Climb potion or two so that, if someone whose balance is poor uses the carpet, they will likely stay put." He smiles and scratches his chin. This reveals the Emerald Comm ring on the finger which held a protection ring a few minutes ago. He clarifies, "I didn't used group gold for this or anything. Its personal gold. I simply extend the loan to anyone who wishes to use it."
"Down." The carpet floats to the floor and Lian rolls it up and folds it over his back. "Nice little item if I do say so."
"Who needs a Protection from Evil." He starts rooting for scrolls in his pocket.

Thaeri [Jay b] [ACFF 11, TAC 14] Tuesday May 22nd, 2007 10:52:23 AM
Purrs loudly.
Sonara (Hps 47, AC 22)[ACFF 18, TAC 14 nomagic] Tuesday May 22nd, 2007 10:53:25 AM
Returning from outside, the elf sees the monk on a carpet. "I'll take a holy water." She says hopefully.
Lucia, Bright Flame of the Culverwood [Jay B][no AC stats :)] Tuesday May 22nd, 2007 10:56:16 AM 'Oh, very nice! A floating monk. He's thinking about toys and we're readying for combat with undead! Admittedly the holy water was a good choice. Where do you GET these guys Knara?! Mail order?' Says the blutally blunt sword openly.
Athalorn Tuesday May 22nd, 2007 1:18:47 PM
Athalorn agrees with Lian's way of thinking. "Hmm a possible attack from above with a few of us might be good. But it doesn't solve the problem of getting into the Cube. Will my wildshape suffer the antimagic?"
K'Nara Tuesday May 22nd, 2007 1:25:48 PM
After getting more details from Karen, K'Nara goes and ponders the possibilities for the intended storming of the Cube by joining Gunther outside for the overnight.
She sighs at the sight of the lioness with her cubs.
"I just hope that dog wasn't somebody's pet." the blade singer says. K'Nara pointedly ignores Lucia's opinion about the Emeralds.
*You'll be cleaving your way through body parts soon enough.* she mentally assures the sword.
Donara (HP 26 AC 16) Tuesday May 22nd, 2007 5:32:07 PM
Donara takes a chance to look over the things brought back by Lian. It was amazing how they just shared among one another their things.
"I would much like a holy water as well."
Brother Bertram Tuesday May 22nd, 2007 8:59:25 PM
Bertram finishes his prayers and breaks his fast and waits for the coming battle.
Milo Tuesday May 22nd, 2007 9:54:09 PM
Milo is silent, and a bit grim as he goes about making ready for the journey to the cube. The halfling sharpens every blade he owns, except his holy short sword which seems to never dull of its own accord. He then stands by ready to do what needs doing. Despite all this, he still manages to remain near Olana the entire time, her presence enough to calm and comfort Milo as he sets several plans in motion in his mind.
Gunther Tuesday May 22nd, 2007 10:25:22 PM
The warrior sighs at the sight of the dog. When rejoined by K'nara, he gives her a big hug. "I vas afraid of dis...dey are not trained yet and still follow dere instincts. I vas hoping for more time to vork vith dem, but as it is, dey are not hunting humans, so I suppose it's not all that bad."
Gunther strokes Theari absentmindedly as he asks Lian for a Protection from Evil, and a few bottles of holy water.
Dm Jim: Final Preparations Tuesday May 22nd, 2007 10:49:36 PM
The Emerald Dragon prepare for battle. Lian brings in supplies and distributes them as needed. Strategy is discussed, but no action is taken.
The cubs tire of playing with the dead dog. It was definately a pet, since it is still tied to its doghouse. Neighors watch the group from windows.
The morning sun start to climb through the clouds. It looks like the clouds will break up in a few hours.
--------------------------------------
ooc: Please post spell lists, AC (standard, flat footed/ with magic, standard/without magic and flat footed/without magic), hit points, spells in effect and their duration.
Ingrge:AC 28: HP 102/102: See invisibility, Arcane sight, Contingency Tuesday May 22nd, 2007 10:59:36 PM
Ingrge smiles as Lian pops back in with the gear.
After shifting a few things around he turns to the others.
Falin, Here are a few more arrows: 8 +2 regular and 8 +2 flaming.
"Ok all everyone line up and get out those wands. Everyone gets Haste and stoneskin, Those who want enlarge say so now. Any others? As soon as we are ready K'nara you take a group with the ring and I will take a group with a spell and let's teleport onto the Cube's grounds."
Olana Tuesday May 22nd, 2007 11:42:49 PM
Olana asks Lian if she can have a Protection from Evil scroll and a flask of holy water. "If I forget to give you the cash, don't hesitate to remind me," she tells her fellow elf.
To Milo, she gives a feral grin. "Ingrge has a plan," she says, while lining up for the haste and stoneskin.
Aeralia Tuesday May 22nd, 2007 11:58:41 PM
Aeralia will spend what she can of the remaining night getting a bit of sleep, since most of the other dragons are on guard duty. She smiles at Lian's generosity the next morning, but remains doubtful how helpful the carpet would be in the day to come. "I could make use with a protection from evil, to ward any sort of mind control," she says, at Lian's offer.
"Haste will do little for me," Aeralia says at Ingrge's offer, "So only include me if you've unused targets." She'll accept the stoneskin, if and when it is cast upon her.
Once they seem like they are right ready to go, Aeralia takes the time to cast a few spells upon herself, from memory and scroll (OOC: see active spell list below).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
OOC:
Stat notes: HP: 48/48 AC: 16(M), 14(FF,M), 12(-M), 10(FF,-M)

Party Supplies ---------------- 1 Goodberry (from Lian) Wand of Lightning Bolt (8th level, 50 charges)
---------------------
OOC: Did you purchase a scroll of shield at 12th level? Normally scrolls are purchased at the lowest level it takes to create and in this case first level. The duration would then be 1 minute.
OOC: Ack, your right. Not sure why I was thinking scrolls were cast at the users level. Confusing them with staves I think. holding off on the shield spell then, and reduced duration on Mage Armor
Falin (AC 23 HP 70 ) Wednesday May 23rd, 2007 1:07:41 AM
Falin accepts the arrows with a smile and a nod, "As long as I have ammunition in my quiver and breath in my lungs I will not let you all down." Falin says to the others as he performs a last minute check on his belongings.
As everyone lines up he pulls out a wand, "Honestly I don't even know if I can use this want of haste. It was given to me earlier, but it has never been used. Can anyone one else use it for anything?"
After the buffing he walks over to Sonara, "Stick close to me and just follow my lead. We will provide cover for the rest of the group as they close in to do what they must."
Party Treasure Immovable Rods 4 ea Goodberry 1ea Fire Elemental Gem 1 ea
Donara (AC 16 HP 26 ) Wednesday May 23rd, 2007 1:08:19 AM
Donara speaks up when the wand is offered, "I can use it if none of the Dragons care to use it." If no one else speaks up he will take it and use it when instructed.
He watches his sister and Falin interact. A scowl appears across his face as he walks up to Falin, "If anything happens to my sistyer I will hold you personally responsible. Dragon or not."
He walks over to his sister and gives her a hug, "If things get too dicey just keep your head down."
He then prepares for what is about to happen.

Glannath (AC 25 HP 47/47) Wednesday May 23rd, 2007 1:36:52 AM
Glannath begins flying over the rooftops, heading toward the cube from high, and keeping a watch on the undead minions in the compound.
K'Nara, AC33/?/28/?, 143/143hp, Haste, Stoneskin, Protection from Evil Wednesday May 23rd, 2007 1:21:46 PM
(OOC: I forgot what you can put in AC when you're flat-footed...)
"I have on magic boots," K'Nara says, "So I don't need a zap from the wand." However, the tall redhead is happy to accept Stoneskin, a Protection from Evil (assuming there's one available to her), a sunrod and a flask or two of holy water.
She asks Ingrge if he thinks she'd be effective if she's Enlarged.
Lian (AC 35, Hps 94, Stoneskin 150/150, Enlarge)[AC 28FF, AC 20FF nomagic, TAC 27]-2 AC size Wednesday May 23rd, 2007 2:47:03 PM
"Just take what you need from the party goods but let me know. I am responsible for them."
"I'll take a Stoneskin and Enlarge, as my supply of scrolls are limited. I now have Boots of Speed, so no Haste is required. The limitations to the boots are harsh though." He smiles.
The monk takes his choice of gear and prepares.
He readies to cast Bulls Strength until the party starts splitting.
Gives the twins and Olana their requests and waits.

Thaeri [Jay b] [AC 20, ACFF 11, TAC 14] Wednesday May 23rd, 2007 2:52:27 PM
Doesn't purr. With all the spellcasting, she looks apprehensive and worried. Gunther feels it from her.
Sonara (Hps 47, AC 22)[ACFF 18, TAC 14 nomagic] Wednesday May 23rd, 2007 2:56:03 PM
She looks at her brother with kind irritation. "Shut up Don. Nothing will happen." She moves to Falin. "He's always protecting me, but he's only a minute older. Sheesh." She flexes her bicep in mocking grins at her brother, remembering the arm wrestling matches she always let him win.
Lucia, Bright Flame of the Culverwood [Jay B][no AC stats :)] Wednesday May 23rd, 2007 2:57:32 PM
A buzzing of excitement issues from the sheathe.
Come on, Come on. Lets get a move on! Thinks the sword.
Ingrge: AC: 28, FFAC: 22, TAC; 18, HP: 102/102, Stone skin 150/150, See invisibility, Arcane sight, Contingency, haste Wednesday May 23rd, 2007 8:15:38 PM
Aeralia, it is your choice of course, but the haste wand is there to be used and it will aid in your defense and speed you up. (+1 dodge and +1 reflex saves, double movement rate)
As K'nara asks about the benefits of enlarge he thinks a moment. Well you would have extended attack reach and you would be stronger, but you would lose mobility and such. (basically it breaks down like this: 10 ft threat range, +2 str, -2 dex, -1 att & -1 AC)
Ingrge walks over to Gunther and looks at his lion. So Gunther would you and your kitties like to come with me? By the way, I can double any one, or both of their sizes if you would like before we go.(Will cast Animal Growth if asked)
Then accepting a haste and stoneskin spell from the wands ingrge turns to K'nara.
K'nara I am going to teleport myself Gunther, the cats and Dellintu near to where Karen has shown me where the pile of dead bodies are and then we will come around to join you. Gunther do you think you can explain to your friends here what a ghoul is? And get them to attack them as soon as they see them?
K'nara shall we go?
Active spells see invisibility (permanent) arcane sight (permanent) haste - 8 rounds stone skin - 1500 rounds continency (10 days)
Ingrge Misc. P.T. wand - monster summoning IV (49) P.T. wand - meta magic (48) wand - restoration (50)
Delintu finds his two other friends and checks in with them a moment reminding them that their job is to primarily support and stay alive and then gets hit up with a stone skin and a haste spell.
Active spells Haste - 8 rounds Prot evil - 50 rounds Stone skin - 1500 rounds

Gunther nods at Ingrge. "It vould be a pleasure!" He looks over at Theari and notes her anxiety. Petting her, he speaks to her in a low comforting growl. "I would understand if you want to stay here in the cellar until the fight is over. I don't want you to get hurt again. It's up to you my friend."
Gunther thanks Lian for the Protection from Evil, as well as the two flasks of holy water. "Don't vorry friend, I vill pay you back..." Gunther also gratefully accepts the haste and an Enlarge Person. He hands a Stoneskin scroll to Ingrge and asks him to read it for him. Then, if it is possible, he asks for a Stoneskin for the lioness as well as Theari if she comes along. Activating his Charm Animal tattoo, Gunther makes sure the lions are ready for the trip. Finally, he kindly accepts Ingrge's offer of the Animal spell for Delilah and Theari.
Spells in place (Gunther) Charm animal---3/3 hours Haste---8/8 rounds Stoneskin---1500/1500 rounds Enlarge Person---??/?? rounds Protection from Evil---50/50 rounds

----------------------------
Dm JIm: Stone Skin from a wand is only cast at 7th level and is only good for 700 rounds. Please adjust accordingly.
Milo Wednesday May 23rd, 2007 9:06:25 PM
Milo lines up for haste and stoneskin, and the sly nature of his return smile to Olana, speaks volumes regarding the halfling's own plans. "Somebody is going to pay a pretty penny before the day is through mah' dear."
Aeralia (2nd Post) Wednesday May 23rd, 2007 10:25:28 PM
"As I said, if theres additional targets unused, hit me with it. But don't waste a charge on my account," Aeralia replies to Ingrge.
She will continue her own spellcasting, placing an Invisibility upon herself after the stoneskin is cast.
~~~~~~~~~~
Stat notes: HP: 48/48 AC: 16(M), 14(FF,M), 12(-M), 10(FF,-M)
Party Supplies ---------------- 1 Goodberry (from Lian) Wand of Lightning Bolt (8th level, 50 charges)
~~~~~
OOC Note: Remember that Haste targets 1 person PER level, so 2 charges should be enough to hit everyone!
Also, what level is the stoneskin? I'm seeing 1500 round durations, wouldn't that make it cast as a 15th level caster? That what level
the wand was bought at?
------------------------------
Dm JIm: You are correct. Stoneskin is only cast at 7th level and not 15th.
Dm Jim: Are we Ready to Rumble? Wednesday May 23rd, 2007 11:29:42 PM
OOC: We are in combat rounds as we have short duration spells on.
Note the teleportation ring is a standard action for each person using it to active. I need to know how many are using the ring so we can mark time with the spells. Assume one combat round per person using the ring of teleportation and mark off the time on the spells, before appearing in the courtyard of the Cube.
Who all is going to teleport to the courtyard of the Cube?
Most are doing an excellent job of listing your spells in place and their durations along with AC (touch, standard, flatfooted and with and without magic). Please keep it up and for those not doing it, please add it to your character sheet as it will ease combat greatly. I expect this to be a very intricate combat.
Note: Stoneskin is only a 700 round duration as it is cast at 7th level unless something different is going on to make it 15th level, and nothing was said to that effect.
--------------------------------------
The Emerald Dragons are getting their game faces on as final plans are being made. Karen speaks up "Is this an Emerald Dragon party or can Sutton, Spenser and I tag along. We need our pound of flesh also." Karen finishes with all seriousness as she casts mage armor on herself.
Sutton draws his sword "I could use a haste and stoneskinn. For Oxford and the Students!" Sutton raises his sword in the air.
Spenser also draws his sword to mimic Oxford "I'll take a hit too."
Athalorn (AC 24, HP 100/100) Thursday May 24th, 2007 1:27:10 AM
The druid accepts a protection from evil spell also, and then assures the group that he is ready. Keen not to lose the effects of the magic cast upon him, he speaks quickly. "Let us go. Now is as good a time as any."
ooc: Jim, how far are we from the cube? Could Athalorn fly there quickly?

'I think I'll stay here.' She goes and curls up in a dry corner. She puts her head down and stares at the warrior and the rest of Gunther's Pride of Dragons.
Sonara (Hps 47, AC 22)[ACFF 18, TAC 14 nomagic][Jay B] Thursday May 24th, 2007 8:55:36 AM
Waits nervously, not speaking to Falin. Sweat beading up already. Figgits and shuffles. Then she walks up to Ingrge. "Haste would be nice, if you please?"

K'Nara smiles tightly.
"I don't want to see anyone get hurt." the leader of the Emerald Talons agrees with Lian's sentiments. "However, we need all the help we can get, and I'm not about to refuse it. They can come along." She turns to Ingrge.
"Thanks...I'll pass on the Enlarge...I do better taking advantage of my blade singer training." K'Nara says. "Okay...Ingrge, if you can teleport the Dire lioness, Gunther, Dellintu, & Spenser, the rest can use the ring.
Before departing, K'Nara makes sure that Sonara gets the teleport ring so that the NPCs can use it to get to the site of battle as quickly as the ring will allow.

Gunther nods at Theari's decision. "I think that would be for the best." he growls as he rubs behind her ears. "Please...be careful." Looking over his shoulder, Gunther sighs. "I don't suppose you'd be willing to look after the cubs while I'm gone? I know the mother might not like it much, but I don't think the cubs are up to this hunt..." Gunther leaves the question hanging with the panther.
Readjusting his equipment, Gunther readies himself for his teleportation with Ingrge. If Theari agrees to watch the cubs, Gunther makes sure he gently seperates the mother from the cubs when then are ready to head out(Handle Animal=26).

Dm Jim: Teleportation Thursday May 24th, 2007 11:23:37 PM
OOC: We are in combat rounds as we have short duration spells on.
Who all is going to teleport to the courtyard of the Cube?
Most are doing an excellent job of listing your spells in place and their durations along with AC (touch, standard, flatfooted and with and without magic). Please keep it up and for those not doing it, please add it to your character sheet as it will ease combat greatly. I expect this to be a very intricate combat.
I need AC's for Milo, Olana and Bertram. Whoever is playing the NPC's that are coming (Culverwood elves), please update their AC's
Note: Stoneskin is only a 700 round duration as it is cast at 7th level unless something different is going on to make it 15th level, and nothing was said to that effect.
I am unsure of how many people are teleporting by the ring, so to speed up play mark off 7 combat rounds off spell durations.
------------------------------------
Thaeri is not thrilled with being stuck with babysitting. "They are dangerous and almost as big as me." Gunther is unsure how good a babysitter his panther will be. It is too bad the rolling cages are halfway across the city.
K'Nara has an internal debate about Karen, Oxford and Spenser tagging along. Lian suggest against it.
What will K'Nara decide?
-----------------------------------
The two groups teleport to the Courtyard of the Cube, each about 50 feet apart. Ingrge's group is closer to the pile of dead wizards. The stench is almost unbearable. There are several ghouls that stare out at the group from the pile of dead. The ghouls seem to have been caught off guard by the arrive of the Emerald Dragons and entourage.
Those that teleported by the ring are slightly closer to the wall of stone. They are only 20 feet away.
Several ghouls poke their heads out from freshly dug ditches and warrens and look at the heros. The smell of death and ghouls hangs heavy in the air.
Athalorn (AC 24, HP 100/100) Friday May 25th, 2007 1:21:08 AM
All the talking and preparation means the delay is so great that Athalorn's haste spell has faded by the time the party teleports.
Athalorn is in the second group, further away from the wall and the enemy. Once he has his bearings he immediately takes a Culverclove leaf from his pouch, rubbing it between forefinger and thumb. CLosing his eyes momentarily he calls forth lightning from the sky to aid his task.
1 round action: Call Lightning Storm

Having felt the the Haste spell disapear as they wait for the ring to be passed around to the others Ingrge gets frustrated with the stupidity that let him forget to tell Knara to passed the ring around to everyone prior to using the wands.
As they arrive near the pile of dead Ingrge instructs the others with him to attack the ghouls nearby and he steps over to the pile of dead. taking the appropriate gems out of his haversack pocket he begins to cast his spell as he places the gems where they are needed finding the best candidates. Animate undead - 26 Zombies
As they come to life and each group of five climb out of the pile Ingrge gives them these simple directions. Attack all other undead you find on this property and in the building.
