Angus gives and internal smiles as Lang moves "A man of action, or should I say, our friendly neighborhood Bugbear."

Once the priest attacks Lang any hint of a smile is gone "That was not a good idea my friend. I see you and raise you."

Angus casts a scorching ray at the priest if in range, if not, magic missile.

I think that's right, if not I apologize. Obviously, last week was a bit unusual. Anyway, Al has stepped up and let's get back to our normal 90% posting to show support.

Syr AC 27/26 HP 86 Message W 17 
Friday September 14th, 2007 12:46:17 PM

The time for debate seems to be over as Lang has forced the issue. Seeking to minimize the violence and still protect his friend, Syr sprints for the priests behind the rest of the others. Still not convinced of the evil intent of the priests of Ga'al he mutters to Angus as he runs, "I'm going to subdue at least one of the priests in the back." He flexes a fist and prepares to pull his punches for the first time in a while.

Bin (AC: 26/26 HP: 53/53 ) 
Friday September 14th, 2007 5:49:33 PM

As things heat up Bin yells out, "Arrvil, get the children away from here! Bin shouts out to cleric of Ga'al." He waves the priest away in a rush.
Bin is very upset at his companions stupidity. You can't force people to change their minds and you can't stop someone from doing what they want to unless you inhibit their freedoms.
The Protector is truly torn by the situation. His beliefs and ethics revolve around free choice, something his comrades don't seem to understand. He is a Protector, that is true, but a Protector of what now? He has to do something.
"I will not participate in this abuse of freedoms." Tears roll down Bin's face at his dilemma, but he does not feel the hero's are in the right, and if a priest of Domi does not lead by example, then he has truly failed whatever test was set before him. "Stop your attacks!"

ooc: Sorry all, in character, I think you guys are wrong for stopping it and he's not getting involved in it. This will likely cause some problems and for that I apologize. Perhaps I need to bring in someone that does not think much, about anything.

Wynn [AC=24; HP=69] Invisible  d20+4=18
Friday September 14th, 2007 9:14:44 PM

Unseen to his companions, and hopefully to his enemies, the bard makes his way into the clearing. He tries to avoid the children and Arrvil, and circles towards the back and the two more senior clerics.

[New Position = N-19 double move; Move Silently = 18, includes -5 penalty for moving normal speed ]

Belkior (AC 23; HP81) 
Friday September 14th, 2007 9:44:30 PM

The halfling cleric bristles at the violence launched by his companions. As much as Belkior dislikes the loss of will that submission to the heart seeds entails, he did want to hear the villagers choose. He wants to end this as quickly as possible without harming anyone.

Belkior moves closer so as to see as many of the priests and villagers as possible. He mutters a prayer to himself before shouting out, "Halt! In Alemi's Name, I Command you to Halt!"

Saturday September 15th, 2007 10:50:39 AM


Kids. They're just kids.

So go the thoughts through the dark rogue's head as she watches the three try to take down Lang.

"Listen kid," Xenia slides past Sunshine and dodges around the south most Young Village Guy. "I think it's probs best if you just stay down for this one," she whispers as she comes out of the dark, a slim black skinned girl, red hair peeking out from under a black bandana.

Weaponless, she takes a sock at him from behind. Sure, it's a place that's gonna hurt. It's gonna hurt a lot. But at least the kid will live.

Sunday September 16th, 2007 12:25:37 AM

Lang resists the spell that the cleric has cast at him (will 22). He is disheartened when the 3 children attack him. How can they have the will power to stand up to him and not see through the double talk that the Ga'al clerics are spewing? Lang drops his arms to his sides, showing them that he will not attack them.

"Why are you fighting me? My fight is not with you, it is with the Ga'al clerics."

OOC - No worries Bin. Play your character's personality as you have built him. Lang isn't going to kill any of the children he was just trying to scare them away. He also isn't going kill the clerics, he just wanted to get them separated from the kids so the Shields could talk to them before they start heartseeding.

Sunday September 16th, 2007 1:13:23 PM

Magic missiles streak from Angus' fingers, badly burning one of the priests.

Screams of fear and shouts of warning fill the clearing.

Syr and Wynn move into the melee. Bin calls out for the madness to stop, but it's Belkior's voice that carries weight. Brother Arrvil is suddenly amidst a group of silent children as all of them are stunned to silence at finding their movement Halted. The two priests, as well, find that they cannot move from their places.

Xenia drops one of the three boys attacking Lang, and the remaining two, faced with the dark demonic girl and the monstrous bugbear, grip their respective weapons and await the end. So taken are they by their fear, that the do not appear to hear Lang's calm and kindly words.

The fight is over as quickly as it began. The silence is loud in the wake of the screams and crying and interrupted only by the sniffles of the girl who huddles on her own between the group of her companions and the edge of the clearing.

"You do this to us." Brother Arrvil's words are filled sadness and anger. "You disrupt our ceremony, and you wonder why the Aisil name you an enemy."

[ OoC: End of Combat. DM Dominic will be taking over Monday. Lets see where we go from here. ]

Bin 
Sunday September 16th, 2007 1:51:46 PM

Yep, there it is.

Bin tightens the laniard on his belt and begins walking toward the priest that was hit by Angus's misguided, yet damaging spell.

"Please allow me to heal your wounds? I will wait until you can respond before I do so."

Strange Awakenings (DM Dominic) 
Monday September 17th, 2007 3:46:48 PM

Each of you awaken with a sudden jolt covered in sweat from what you think was a nightmare. You look around finding yourselves in a small clearing amongst several trees.

In the exact center of the clearing is a small basket containing seven small nut breads and seven small flasks.

OOC: all of your spells/items used in the brief combat that Al just ran were not used. that was your nightmare. I have received current character sheets from Wynn, Xenia, Belkior, & Bin. I need them from the rest of you asap.

Bin Berry 
Monday September 17th, 2007 4:44:07 PM

With a start, the protector bolts upright, as the words to a healing spell are on his lips. He looks over to Angus and Lang with fire in his eyes and anger on his brow, but then the scenes from his nightmare begin to fade as does his attitude, "What in the abyss just occured?" He looks toward the center of the clearing to see what is there. The aroma of fresh baked bread sends him back to his territory outside Plateau City where he first started his training.
Standing, he casts a spell, "Domi, please allow me to notice that which is toxic."

Actions: Detect Poison and direct it toward the clearings center first.

Xenia  d20+21=22 d20+16=28
Monday September 17th, 2007 8:36:23 PM


??? !?!?!?!

Xenia rises up from the ground all confoozled and really wanting a bath. There's just nothing to say. Not much of nothing. She takes a look around. (Spot 22/Nat1, Listen 28) She goes to pull a bread thing and a flask of drink from the basket over which Bin is doing Magic Stuff. She takes one for her and one for Wynn and goes to sit down beside him.

On her face is a lost sort of hurt sorta frown.

Xenia sniffs at the loaf of bread stuff.

"Whaddya think?" she asks Wynn. "I just don't know. I just don't know anymore."

Belkior 
Monday September 17th, 2007 9:47:44 PM

The halfling cleric awakes with a start, jumping nimbly to his feet and looking around the clearing.

"Where are the children? The Ga'alians?," Belkior wonders.

Then he looks to his companions and he sees none of the wounds suffered within the priest's cavern. Slowly, Belkior realizes that it was merely a dream ... but a bad one.


Angus 
Monday September 17th, 2007 10:47:10 PM

Angus stands up and dusts himself off. "Not again. I can't tell what is dream and what is not anymore."

------------------------

OOC: I am traveling and can not send my character until Monday.



Wynn 
Tuesday September 18th, 2007 8:01:49 AM

The bard awaken's to the pastoral scene and wonders just how much more the gods will toy with their lives.

Lang & Sunshine 
Tuesday September 18th, 2007 9:00:54 PM

Lang doesn't know what to think about the latest dream the Shields were in.

Renewal - DM Dominic 
Tuesday September 18th, 2007 11:09:06 PM

Releasing his spell Bin garners the knowledge that the food and drink is not poisoned in anyway.

Smelling the bread Xenia is greeted with the delightful scent of fresh baked bread causing her stomach to rumble slightly in protest that she has not eaten in several hours.

Listening to the surrounding area Xenia hers nothing other than the slight breeze threw the surrounding trees.

Everyone has the feeling of warmth and calmness wash over them filling them with renewed energy. Each of you begins to feel the ever so slight rumbles in your guts that is your bodies telling you that you have not eaten in several hours.

After a short while (ca. 30 min) you all start to feel the urge that you have unfinished business someplace nearby.



Bin 
Wednesday September 19th, 2007 1:00:28 AM

Bin does not partake of the food and drink. He does go over his dream with everyone else though, to see if they all had the same dream, "It's as if, I was really there. I don't know about the rest of you, but this test sucks. I don't know if I am failing, passing or ditching class anymore. What's this, the fourth time in a week we have been translocated by the divine? Much more and I will likely just drop my hammer in the dirt and become a hermit somewhere."
Since he does not know who baked it, he will eat his own rations instead of what was left.

Xenia 
Wednesday September 19th, 2007 2:08:26 AM


"'Sucks'." Xenia chuckles at Bin's slang. "Never heard that one before. But yeah. It's a weerdo thing."

hehe. 'Sucks.' That's a good one.

Even white teeth behind dark black lips take a delicate bite from one corner of the nutty scented loaf.

"Mmmm. 'ish iss goo'." She breaks off a chunk and holds it up to feed Wynn.

"'up, shuk ... " The rogue swallows her bite of bread. "But, sucks or not, Bin, I mean, like, isn't this your god who's doing this? I mean, your sure that's Domi, right? Isn't it?"

"And just thinking, you know, but aren't tests supposed to be, like, you know, suck suck sucky? Best thing is to prepare best you can, jump in and get it over with. If you pass, great. If not, you work to fix what's wrong and try again."

"Sometimes, you don't get to try again, though. I think this is one of those times."

"Everyone else ready to run at this again? Angus you wanted to pull back and take another run at this, right? Well, here we are. What's the plan?"

OoC: DM, what time of day is it?

Angus 
Wednesday September 19th, 2007 8:11:41 AM

The impossibly thin Sorcerer does not see any sweets or fruit and does not give the food much consideration as he looks at his fellow Shields "What now? I can no longer tell what is dream and what is real any more. Wynn pinch Xenia to make sure this is real." Angus finishes with a smile.

1 missed DM post... Thanks Al for last week and Welcome to the new DM.

Bin 
Wednesday September 19th, 2007 10:23:18 AM

"All the gods are my gods Xenia, I just respect the ways of Domi more. Sometimes, a little donkey needs to be kicked, and when it comes right down to it, nobody kicks better then Domi." He finishes his beef jerky, "Beside, it was a priestess of Domi that found me and saved me. That is where I learned all my knowledge. I don't know any more, if I was found by a priest of Ga'al, would I be here fighting you all today?"
Bin doubts his own thinking any more.
"Look guys, at this point, I don't care if a dragon gets heartseeded anymore, and I don't care of children are also. To be quite blunt, I hardly care about anything since it seems the councel of those wiser then others are not only unheeded, but ignored. I am not sure if what happened with the children really happened or not, but if I ever mention the fact we should not get involved in something, especially when we are not in danger, and it is not at least discussed, I will be taking my leave."

He gets up and dusts himself off, before preparing to head whereever.

Xenia (2nd Illegal Post) 
Wednesday September 19th, 2007 3:26:57 PM


"Hey, you know, Bin, I understand. Really, I do. But when things get really craze and everything's like, hopelessly strung, I mean, it's hard to sit down and talk about it. And it's like my Da always says, usually it's better if everyone's going the same way. Even if it's the wrong way."

"But I know what you mean. Things go the wrong way too many times, then you just gotta move on."

Bin second post 
Wednesday September 19th, 2007 4:50:49 PM

Bin acknowledges Xenia, "Perhaps the wrong path is alright for some, but for those that have a chosen path in store for themselves, it is better to sit idle, then to deter and lose that which you have struggled to achieve all your life."

Syr 
Wednesday September 19th, 2007 4:51:15 PM

He listens carefully to the Bin before following him and queitly speaking, "You bring up a good point Bin. I thought that others were a bit rash in that dream. I also follow Domi and I was always taught that he was a protector and defender. There are two things I noticed about that encounter that concerned me. Some of us thought the children needed to be protected. Secondly... and I thought I was the impulsive one... due to our friendship, I felt compelled to come to the other Shields' defense."

OOC: I had an OSHA audit the last two days, I will send the character sheet tonight.

Belkior 
Wednesday September 19th, 2007 9:49:27 PM

The halfling cleric is ready to assume the burdens laid on him by Domi, or whoever sent the Shields on this quest. Belkior checks all of his items and thinsk of what he would need again. Of course, he doesn't trust his dream to have been an accurate prediction of what is to come.

Strange Revelation - DM Dominic 
Wednesday September 19th, 2007 11:34:25 PM

Xenia eats some of the bread then realizes that is some of the best tasting travelers bread that she has ever tasted. She quickly finishes off what bread she took from the basket.

As you continue to talk about the different paths of life, Sunshine begins to move around the edge of the clearing then moves into the trees at the edge. After a couple of moments Sunshine comes hurrying back into the clearing and begins to bark at all of you as if trying to get your attention.

OOC: the time of day is early-mid morning

Wynn 
Thursday September 20th, 2007 7:46:57 AM

The bard rises and makes his way to the edge of the clearing, one hand on the pommel of his longsword. "What is it boy?" he tries to calm the dog.

"Yeah alright," the rogue replies to Bin. "I don't guess we can count on you to back us up, then. I mean, if your morals say 'No', you know. 'S alright. To each their own."

Sunshine starts to barking and time for talk is over. Xenia slips into Wynn's shadow and follows along, silent and unseen, watching and listening for danger. (Hide 32, Move Silently 37, Spot 28, Listen 24)

Bin 
Thursday September 20th, 2007 10:30:21 AM

"If your actions are misguided and I can't bring you back from that, then what you say is correct, your on your own."
He walks with the others, but for how long?

Syr  d20+9=23
Thursday September 20th, 2007 6:36:40 PM

Not ready to get into a debate about Domi, he remains silent instead of pursuing his question to Bin.

As the dog comes back, Syr looks over at Sunshine then around the clearing (spot 23), "Lang?" Finally, he tries to watch Xenia as he knows she has the best eyes in the group.

Lang & Sunshine  d20+6=11
Thursday September 20th, 2007 9:54:18 PM

Lang heads over to where Sunshine is barking. he looks around trying see what is making his dog bark. He also takes a big whiff trying to pick up a strange or new scent.

Spot 11

Belkior 
Thursday September 20th, 2007 11:15:39 PM

The halfling cleric listens to the discussion between Bin, Xenia and the others. Belkior knows simply what burdens and tasks he has taken with his devotion to Alemi.

"Bin ... Xenia. I freely accepted the vows and oaths that my devotion to Alemi requires. Sometimes, certainly, that means that I am at odds with my companions. But I believe that Alemi has set me on this path and I intend to follow it every day, hour and minute of my existence. I've tried, as much as possible, to explain to the Shields what restrictions my vows place upon me so they understand when I don't aid them in some ways."

"Maybe I'm not the most strict of Paragons when I choose to aid and protect my companions, rather than remaining neutral. But I truly believe that my companions are acting in accordance with Alemi's desires, and if I ever felt otherwise, then I would not do so."

As he's saying this, Belkior dusts himself off and prepares to go where the others lead.

Angus 
Thursday September 20th, 2007 11:35:39 PM

Angus takes of his big floppy leather traveling hat and sits down to take a load off "What does Sunshine smell of does he just need a run to the wood for a call to nature?"

Angus stands up and reaches for the sky to loosen his back. "Maybe we have a sign."

OOC: Hi Dominic, I forgot what time of day you said you would be posting? Should we expect 5 Dm posts per weeks?

Bin 
Saturday September 22nd, 2007 5:43:59 PM

The protector day dreams of his youth. It begins with the time he futilely attempted to save his little friend from the drunk. How he was almost killed in doing so. The benefactor that found him and healed him and brought him to the temple of Domi and fed him. Are the priests of Ga'al that different?
The Shields had a once in a lifetime chance to watch a ceremony that had never been seen outside of Aisuldur This may have been the only chance the outside world would have to gain knowledge of their ways. Was it ruined because of emotion?
Bin knows, if someone had tried to prevent him from learning from Sorreal, he would have resisted, as will the people of Stone Gap if they approach their new religion without evidence of the aggressive nature the shields have seen the Ga'alian's exhibited.




Interesting Sight - DM Dominic 
Monday September 24th, 2007 2:15:35 AM

As your approach Sunshine, Sunshine stops barking then starts to lead you into the trees surrounding the clearing. Upon reaching the outer edge of the trees that form the small clearing you can make out what looks to be the cave that you had started to explore. From where you are you can catch the slight movement of shadows just beyond the entrance of the cave.

The cave entrance is approximately 20 feet away.
Spot check DC 25 from everyone please.

OOC - Sorry for the missed posts we had a family emergency. My wife's grandfather was admitted to the hospital. I am now back to normal routine. Sorry for the missed posts. Dominic

Lang wonders how this can be the same cave entrance as it is not high up off the ground. He looks towards Angus for guidance on what to do next.

Angus 
Monday September 24th, 2007 8:44:56 PM

Angus is getting a sense of having acted in this play before "Let be careful people" The sorcerer cautions as he cast message on all the Shields and mage armor on himself.

"Xenia see what you can see and be quite about it. This will help."

Angus casts invisibility on the half elf.

Spot = 26 (natural 20)

Flickering Shadows - DM Dominic 
Monday September 24th, 2007 11:19:07 PM

Looking more carefully Xenia and Belkior make out 3 distinct forms moving about in the shadows of the cave entrance. Each shadow reminds you of the skeletal devils that you saw last time you were here. After a couple of moments the shadows stop moving and you loose sight of them in the shadows of the cave entrance.

Each of you steels yourselves for what you feel is a test of your abilities.

OOC - from here on my next post will be combat posting style. one round of actions allowed. Map will be sent out via email when I make my next posting.

"Wynn isn't too happy to hear Angus send Xenia off first, once again. The spells and blessing placed on the rogue are a small consolation.

"What do you see?" he calls out, his voice low and hoarse, barely above a whisper.

The bard's hand twitches nervously over his weapon as his eyes scan the dark maw of the cave and his ears strain for a response from the half-drow.

Xenia (AC24, HP 63/63) 
Tuesday September 25th, 2007 8:00:11 AM


"'Member those Bony Guys?" This time, rather than forging ahead as she had done before, Xenia returns very quickly. "I think it's them."

"Here, quick." She hands two small flasks of oil to both Lang and Wynn. "According to the guy at the store, these will, like, Bless your Weapons. That's a good thing. I think."

"Better prepare up." She takes a scroll of Magic Circle Against Evil from her haversack and hands it to Bin. "Could you cast this on me. Please?" she asks. Then she takes out her last Oil of Bless Weapon, the bow captured from the Plompy Halfling, and she slips one of the Plompy Butt Halfling's deadly arrows into her quiver. She takes out a scroll of Expeditious Retreat and holds it at the ready.

Xenia takes a deep breath and goes to stand by Wynn. "I love you," she says. And awaits the coming of the Bony Guys.

Bin takes the scroll and before he casts it reminds the group, "There is a good chance with my divine power of turning the bone...things..(he failed his knowledge planes the last time I believe) If they were summoned, isn't there a duration? Given the facts, perhaps we should wait until night when our scouts have a better advantage?"

Angus 
Tuesday September 25th, 2007 10:29:44 PM

Angus looks in the direction of Xenia's voice as he can not see the now invisible rouge "Back so soon? Is there anything else in the cave? Is the bell still there or any sign of dragon?"

Angus looks at Bin "Lets try to wait out the demons and see if they are summoned. It may use up the invisiblity on Xenia, but it will be worth it if we do not have to dispatch them ourselves."

ooc: Dominic distances would help at this point. How far away is the cave mouth? Do we have cover? Is the terrain aminable to running if necessary?"

Angus faces Syr and Wynn "Do either of you want to be a troll?"

Syr

Planting himself in front of Angus, "Since this is one of the biggest tests of our life, hit me with the troll boss. I think we'll need it. Especially if it's those devils that we dreamed of..."
