Into the Green Valley[DM SteveK] Thursday September 4th, 2008 5:37:02 PM
Durgan and Kazak hunker down themselves and ready for a fight.
Savin shouts his news to the others, and everyone in the Valley can hear the monk. He also speaks more earnestly to the elven leader, citing that Krilanos has been playing both sides for fools. Though he has no sway in persuading the elves with his personality (need a Diplomacy check for that), it does look like his words have at least some effect.
Trace tries to keep everything in his sights, and asks his bow where to aim. The Whispering Bow scans 120' feet with its blindsense and then Trace feels what almost is a mental shrug from the bow. Highlight to display spoiler: { "You are a good match for me", it says, "and so I must confess one of my secrets.... I can't really detect good and evil. It is only the stories of me and that others think I can do it." The voice in Trace's head sounds chagrined.} Trace then begins the complicated spell to bring an ally of Nature to him. (Full round action, will appear at the beginning of Trace's next action. Trace able to perform no other actions, i.e. no ready action)
Peerimus the Leopard hears the words and decides to close ranks. He sprints for the other Children of Chaos. He worries that Hannan is relatively unprotected and could be a weak spot in the plan.
Jurgen makes his case to the dwarves and tries to see if there is evil nearby (Detect Evil, 60 foot cone, requires full round to see all the way around.) Jurgen can detect no one evil within 60 feet of him. Jurgen also thinks of Hannan, but is not yet able to be ready to Dim Door to the Hier's side. (Not able to Ready action due to full round Detect Evil action.)
Firn'gaer and Yorrick continue to be near Durgan and Kazak and Jurgen.
..........................
The skirmish line of dwarves is far from convinced that NOT attacking the elves is the best course of action, but Jurgen's measured words works thier way into even Barla's zeal, and she continues to hesitate to initiate any action. The Ranger Captain even goes over to Luhkee and begins conversing with the other dwarf. The other dwarves in the skirmish line begin to fidget and look around, apparantly wondering both what they are going to do while in elf bow-range, and trying to see if the accusations are correct concerning Krilanos.
Hannan has his ten guardsmen pulled close around him, and is looking behind at the second group of dwarf rangers. Words in the sonorous dwarven tongue are passed back and forth among the groups. The sound doesn't carry, but it looks like Hannan is getting through to the second group, and they are holding fast in their positions.
The elven leader stands and considers Savin for a few seconds before speaking. He pitches his voice to carry across the Valley so all can hear. "I am Alathorn Silverleaf, leader of the elven community of Silverleaf. It is true Krilanos has spoken with us, and that you know his name lends weight to your argument. Krilanos was the one who first told us of the dwarves that have been destroying our homelands, our trade, and our peaceful way of life."
He looks at some of his companions and then calls out loudly. "The dwarves are not blameless, but if they move away to the far side of this Valley, then we will consider other reasons for this war. No one needs to die here today!"
..........................
"NOOOOOOO!!!" A shout rises and reverberates across the hills of the Valley. Near the edge of the dry area to the east of the dwarven line, a figure in white robes tears at his hair while looking at a scroll. "That's not in the script! The two forces, intent to see justice done, spills the blood of the Noble Races into the ground of the Valley. See!! It's right here!!" The man points emphatically at the scroll and giggles. "Now start killing each other and get this party started!!!" The man dances a jig in the dirt, and wherever his feet touch, small pools of water or fire or rapid plant growth follow him.
The man in white robes is 400 feet from the nearest dwarf, 600 feet from the Children of Chaos, and a thousand feet from Savin.

Durgan AC31 Hp 182/182 Thursday September 4th, 2008 9:56:17 PM
OOC- link not working yet.
Durgan smiles as Savin and Jurgen speak. "Direct and to the point eh brother? They would have made fine dwarves of themselves if nature had made it so."
Durgan looks up curiously as the robed figure reveals himself. "Is that Krilanos? He looks a pebbles short of a rock to me. Kazak, remember what our cousin Splitrock used ta say? Leave the crazies alone."
Keeping an eye on both the elven and dwarven groups, Durgan backs up towards Firn'gaer. "Hey gnome, mebbe ye should get some of yer telly portin magic ready, just in case." He takes a firmer grip upon his axe and waits.
Kazak Ac 27/32 w/shield Hp 170 Thursday September 4th, 2008 10:32:21 PM
"Dats right brother " growls Kazak " we must be rubbing of on dem "
Still weaponless ........" come on brother lets make some space between us and dem rangers ..... we need to be in da middle to help dem from battlin each other "
Tthe younger brother moves forward towards the elves .... trying to ge equal distance between the two sides
Savin ac 32 hps 137/137 Thursday September 4th, 2008 10:34:02 PM
Savin watches the strange figure in his robes and then says to Silverleaf, "Told you he is a whack job! Pull back and let us handle him. No reason for any more innocents to get hurt do to that lunatic." Savin points his nose towards Krilanos and starts to sprint coving 320'. (ooc link didn't work so place me where appropriate
Firn'gaer Friday September 5th, 2008 10:28:41 AM
Firn'gaer turns back to the Dwarves "Withdraw, withdraw now. There will be a truce here and if after talking you wish to continue this needless loss of life then so be it. But if there is a chance to prevent even one death of your kinsmen, to save one life of your brethren, then is that not worth it. That fool," he says pointing at Krilanos, "has been playing both sides in a mad attempt to set these lands on a path to war. So for the future of your clans, your brethren, your children withdraw so that peace may have a chance to grow in the soils of war."
"Don't worry about my magic. It is always at my command." He says to Durgen.
Firn'gaer will ready a Wall of force spell to be placed in front of the dwarves if there is missile fire from either side. It will be centered on the dwarves. If the dwarves fire it will be close enough to deflect fire.

Chaos Among Us[DM SteveK] d6=1 ; d6=4 ; d6=2 ; d6=5 ; Friday September 5th, 2008 2:24:56 PM
Durgan moves closer to Firn'gaer requesting teleportation assistance to be ready to go where the action is going to be.
Kazak begins loping towards the elves, wanting to be in between the two forces.
Savin warns Silverleaf away from the being who is apparently Krilanos and the coming confrontation, then begins to sprint towards the foe. Shrubs and the odd tree spots the rolling hills of the Valley, but the monk is easily able to find a straight -shot run towards the desert side of the Valley.
Firn'gaer informs Durgan that his wizardry skills are fully available, and readies a Wall of Force to divide the dwarves and elves from each other.
Trace has the Tiger appear before him and with Shadow covering the rear, the ranger is well protected. He continues his telepathic conversation with the Whispering Bow and takes a bead on the white robed man 600 feet away.
Yorrick and Jurgen and the arriving Peerimus keep thier position between the dwarves and elves
..........................
Confusion erupts in the dwarf skirmish line. Barla fumes for a second and then shrieks out; "This is all a lie, I know the truth, and the truth is the elves are decieving us and using the Hier's 'friends'! Chaaaarrrggee!!!"
Barla moves forward at a sprint along with about 30 other dwarves all intent to close with and kill the elves. Firn'gaer's Wall of Force comes up directly in front of them, cutting off 130 feet of lane between the elves and dwarves. Barla and 20 of her attacking skirmish line bounces off the magical wall, but the dwarves are too spread out, and five dwarves on each flank continue their running pace.
The remaining 20 dwarves in the skirmish line are slowly pulling back to where Hannan and his guard is keeping a solid bulwark of reason among the dwarves.
Alathorn listens to Savin with a nod. "We will not strike at any dwarf or Krilanos unless they come within a hundred feet of these woods. They are Silverleaf land, and the filthy dirt-beards will not sully its purity." The elves blend back into the woods, gaining total concealment within 10 feet. No arrows fly from the woods...yet.
....................
"Have to break a few omelettes to make eggs!" chortles the white robed man. "Terminate with extreme prejudice!" he laughs. "Th-th-that's All Folks!"
And then his eyes narrow at the approaching Savin and some form of sanity comes into his demeanor. "You!! You Southern Knights have interrupted my plans for the last time! The Chaos Power is mine! I know how it works! You false champions of chaos have no concept of what we are capable of! Bring your meager powers and let us dance on the graves of the Continent!"
Again, the man dances a jig in the desert land, but this time, his image wavers and it is difficult to see him, and wherever his feet touch, small pools of black acid appear.
The man in white robes is 500 feet from the nearest dwarf, 600 feet from the Children of Chaos, and a 600 feet from Savin.

Peerimus AC 27 HP 112 and Yorrick AC 32 HP 140 Friday September 5th, 2008 2:54:16 PM
Peerimus's eyes narrow on the mad man. Another one, likely as dangerous if not more so than the gnome in the Ice Vein. Script, could he pen the future? What if... Peerimus halts the line of thinking as Savin heads at him. It would take the monk more than 18 seconds to get there at his speed. Plenty of time. Perhaps he could distract them and at least give Savin a chance.
Peerimus starts to close the distance towards the mad man and then sits back on his haunches, reaising both claws and issueing a high pitched hiss. [Move 60' cast Entangle Reflex DC 18]

Kazak Ac 27/32 w/shield Hp 170 Friday September 5th, 2008 10:13:04 PM
Seeing Barla ambereyes stopped in her tracks by the wall of force ......Kazak moves to intercept the five dwarves (moves to AE-20 ) on the side closer to the man of chaos ....
"Stop ...... Hold ...... do not advance further " shouts the dwarven warrior to the charging dwarves as he places himself between them and the elves .... doing his best to make them change direction or stop in their tracks......wavibf his arms to distract them from advancing
ooc : cool map ;-)
Durgan AC31 Hp 182/182 Sunday September 7th, 2008 12:55:14 AM
"Is that him? Krilanos? He seems to have lost more than a few of his marbles."
Durgan aids his brother in trying to convince the dwarves that they should hold their attack.
Jurgen [AC: 34, HP 141/141] d20+19=31 ; Sunday September 7th, 2008 3:32:16 PM
At first, Jurgen is pleased that his words stalled the dwarves. And Savin seemed to have had an effect on the elves. Perhaps they'd be able to stop the coming war. He steps forward to speak at length with Hannan, but hearing Krilanos' shout has him change his tone.
"Captain Hannan... If you do not wish to pit dwarf against dwarf, I suggest you return to the Arch and home to Vulfgard. You can no longer wait for Barla to regain her dwarven sensibilities. She has been tricked into betraying her people," he practically shouts these words, half trying to drive some sense into the Ranger and half trying to draw her attention away from the elves, "If we can, we will save her from herself." It was a desperate move, but there was little else he could do in the midst of a battle. Battlefield diplomacy... [Diplomacy Check - d20+19=31]
His hand goes to his sword and he begins to draw it, but stops as he hears the man's frantic shouts. He looks carefully at the scroll and then to the armies around the group. Something seemed strange here. If Krilanos was truly trying to start a war, wouldn't he have tried to hide the fact that he was working for both sides? Using the same name... It was a wild guess on Jurgen's part, but it had turned out to be right. And then the man coming out and proclaiming his very intent to cause a war? It didn't fit together.
Jurgen watches as Savin and Peerimus rushes towards Krilanos and Trace readies his bow. Obviously, Krilanos was now the Children's target. The words of Krilanos go through his head yet again. Now, Jurgen begins speaking to the Children through the message spell. "Krilanos has gotten his hands on prophecy. Maybe writing it. Maybe just a vessel. And it is likely related to the Migration. Two forces, intent to see justice done? That could be the elves and dwarves. But, the way he is acting, it could also be us and him. My first instinct was that we need to eliminate this man, but now I think that would only further the Great Migration."
"Firn'gaer, do you want to take care of the second group?" He smiles, knowing full well that the gnomish wizard had enough magic in him to take out Barla's entire squad. And, if the Children weren't quick, that might be a necessity. If Firn'gaer doesn't end up resolving the dwarves at AA20, Jurgen will Dimension Door himself in between their path to the forest (either AB19 or AC18) and prepares to take them on. They had to be an easier fight than the most recent battles. After all, Jurgen couldn't really teleport inside of a dwarf's mouth, now could he.
Otherwise, he'll drink his potion of Shield of Faith and get ready to move to Krilanos. That man would be a test of the Children. Not only of their individual abilities and their ability to work together, but on their hold of the Chaos powers. Without them, Jurgen doubted there could a victory. But how to harness those powers? The paladin didn't know. Instead, he'd have to do what he did know: start fighting and learn on the fly.
Savin ac 32 hps 137/137 Sunday September 7th, 2008 7:33:01 PM
Savin is a bit surprised that his comrades aren't all sprinting towards Krilanos but he doesn't slow down his pace and covers another 360 towards the prancing madman.

Firn'gaer nods to Jurgen, "I do, but we want them alive is the problem."
Firn'gaer pulls his Staff of Fire from his back and calls forth a Wall of Fire (heat facing the Dwarves) centered on the left group (or which ever group is not been engaged) and reaches out 140-ft in each direction. The wall will be far enough ahead so that they will not take damage from the heat of the wall.

Chaos Among Us[DM SteveK] d20+21=24 ; Monday September 8th, 2008 12:57:48 PM
Peerimus leaps forward in leopard form towards the dancing man and then casts Entangle. Immediately, roots and weeds and cacti reach to immobilize Krilanos.
Kazak sprints to stop the dwarves to the East of the Wall of Force, trying to get them to see reason. (moves 80 feet x4 Run east) Durgan also runs to stop the dwarves on that side as well.
Savin is a bit surprised that his comrades aren't all sprinting towards Krilanos but he doesn't slow down his pace and covers another 360 towards the prancing madman.
Trace flies up and hustles towards Krilanos (move 120 feet towards Krilanos) and the Panther and Tiger follow.
Firn'gaer uses his Staff of Fire create a Wall of Fire, curving in and enclosing on three sides the five dwarves to the West.
Jurgen waits for Firn'gear to deal with one group of dwarf skirmishers, and then drinks a potion and prepares to meet Krilanos.
Yorrick stays with Jurgen.
.......................
Hannan shouts out orders to his dwarves, and they all surge forward. Moving in a pincer movement the dwarves under Hannan are attempting to capture Barla and her bezerkers against the Wall of Force and then subdue them. It will take a minute or so for Hannan's dwarves to get into position, but it looks like at least the dwarves that ran into the Wall of Force are not going to continue thier attack.
Barla is all but foaming at the mouth as she attacks the Wall of Force in front of her. Ten of her fellow dwarves are moving to support her, but the other 20 have set back and are looking for more guidane from either Barla or another dwarf they would see as an authority figure.
The five dwarf skirmishers to the West come to a screeching halt in their charge. None of them are willing to move through the fire, and now that they are looking back, they see most of their bretheren were stopped earlier. The five slowly move back away from the Wall of Fire.
The five dwarf skirmishers to the East ignore the calls from Kazak and Durgan and move around them to the left and right. They keep out of his reach and continue to advance hotly against the forest.
The elves continue to hold thier fire. ..........................
Krilanos is attacked by the surrounding vegetation. Though he escapes the worst of the attack, it does slow him down (Reflex: 24) and also tears the white robe from his back. Now dressed in dirty tunic and short trews, he moves very quickly (despite the movement restrictions of Entangle), dodging the grasping roots and advances out of the area of effect of the Entangle spell. (moves forward 50 feet)
"You are not good champions for chaos!" he roars. "This war is the ultimate expression of change: Life to Death, Winner to Loser, Yours to Mine. You can not stop it, for it is beyond any control, any Law. Hahahah Hee HEee HAW!!!"
Krilanos downs a potion and then beckons Savin on with a couple of heavy gauntlets.

Savin grins at Krilanos and still moves forward but only travels 80' this time. He then activates his ring of blinking both preparing for battle and allowing his comrades a few more moments to catch up. He thinks to himself, "Fair is fair. I shouldn't have this battle all to myself. That would just be greedy!"
He calls out to Krilanos, "You sound like a braying donkey! Chaos has its place in this Wold but it has to be restrained or all will be destroyed. Who wants that? Only a madman would which qualifies you I would guess." Savin raises his fist and continues, "If you want battle, come and get it!"

"Come on brother, let's stop the dwarves' charge. Firn'gaer can get us to help out against Krilanos if they needs our help."
Durgan shifts to block the dwarves charge. He braces for a hit and puts his shield into the face of the first dwarf to reach him. "Are ye daft? You are charging alone, the rest of yer force has stopped. What do ye think is goin ter happen when the five of ye charge the elves by yerselves? Pincusions, that's what. Why don't ye look back to yer boss? He doesn't seem to want you to attack. And take a look at yon crazy man over there. Unless I'm mistaken, he's the one that's been giving advice to yer other leader Barla. Mebbe he gave her crazy advice too eh?"

"Yorrick... Lets go join the battle with your friend." Jurgen points to Peerimus. Yorrick didn't need the gesture, but Jurgen felt silly talking to a bear. He doesn't bother waiting for Peerimus' companion's approval, knowing he'll hear his roar soon enough. He puts a hand on the bear and casts Dimension Door and places them closer to Krilanos, 30 feet closer than Savin (unless that puts us within the Entangle, I don't think it does). He knows the monk will zoom past them soon enough. And then Jurgen would be free to cast at Krilanos. Or join the melee fray. Jurgen was going to leave that up to chance... Maybe some chaos would help them fight the madman...

Peerimus notes Krilanos dance out of the Entangle and the speed at which he moves. It reminds him of someone and that thought does not sit terribly well. Catching him in a spell would be difficult. Noting the group moving quickly to assit Savin, that meant Firngaer would be on his own. However the gnome should be fine. Neither group had too much reason to direct aggression against him and so Peerimus turns and heads towards Kilranos. Breaking into a full run for the moment [move 60x4]

Trace flies another 120' to the mad man and Shadow and the Tiger lope along below. "I'm coming Savin!", he shouts (ooc: Trace is on Valley 5' scale map)
Savin moves forward grinning at Krilanos and tries to give his fellows some time as well as baiting Krilanos into the first move. (ooc: Trace is on Valley 5' scale map)
Durgan shifts to block the dwarves charge, and tries to continue to talk sense into the dwarves still mad enough to charge. His attempt at staring them down goes to naught, and poor Durgan barely scares the butterflies flying by.
Jurgen puts a hand on Yorrick and casts Dimension Door, placing him just to the front of where Savin was standing. Of course, Savin has since moved and Jurgen now stands 30 feet behind the monk, but that is where he wanted to be, yes? (ooc: Jurgen is on Valley 5' scale map)
Yorrick is supposed to go with Jurgen, and the animal is intelligent enough to allow the magic to work and not fighting against it. The great kodiak also teleports close to Savin. (ooc: Yorrick is on Valley 5' scale map)
Kazak tries to shout for the elves to not kill the charging dwarves, but doesn't hold much hope. He does feel that he needs to get into the fight with Krilanos and downs a fly potion and begins moving towards the fray.
Firn'gaer casts an extended haste at the two dwarves. "Run. I'll keep the dwarven charge at bay.", He urges as the wizard flies towards the elves 40-ft.
Peerimus notes Krilanos' exceptional agility and decides getting closer is going to be necessary. He breaks into a full run for the moment. (ooc: Peerimus is on Valley 5' scale map)
.......................
The five charging dwarves are separated from each other by 10 feet each, and so Durgan steps in front of the lead dwarf. The crazed dwarf strikes at Durgan as he rushes by, axe striking sparks, but not giving any damage. The dwarf continues on, (ooc: and Durgan has an AOO in addition to his next round.) The other four continue thier charge.
Hannan and his group has Barla and her small group surrounded and up against the Wall of Force. Whatever happens, it doesn't look like Barla will cause further problems.
The five dwarves backing off from the Wall of Fire continue thier retreat. They do not look like they are joining Hannan, but are going directly back to the Rose Arch.
.......................
Krilanos laughs and waggles his finger at Savin. "Nice try to control me, but chaos can never be controlled! I can just go in a completely unexpected direction, like towards your convieniently bunched up dwarves!" Skipping and dancing, Krilanos moves due West (50 foot move) and goes closer to Hannan's group while swinging into the desert to avoid the arriving Children of Chaos. His footsteps leave little marks of flame as he goes.

Peerimus cuts to his right [AG/44] He is in no particular hurry and Krilanos does not appear to be in any as well. The thought on the Driuds mind in whether or not he can prevent the mad man from moving against teh dwarves, now that all of the CoC is gathering here hundreds of feet from them.

Durgan AC31 Hp 182/182 haste Wednesday September 10th, 2008 9:08:08 PM
Durgan gives a stern look at the dwarves as they run by, but he doesn't swing at them. "Eh? Fine then. Go catch some elven arrows the hard way. And while yer bein stubborn, ye probably didn't notice that Krilanos is headed for yer boss Barla."
Durgan takes advantage of the haste and runs towards Krilanos. "I hope he picks a spot and stands still already durnit. Doesn't he know dwarves aren't built fer runnin' ?"
Actions: run x4 towards Krilanos 30x4 =120feet
OOC- I don't think the haste stacks with boots of striding and springing so I left my speed at 30
Jurgen [AC: 39, HP 141/141] d3=2 ; Thursday September 11th, 2008 12:52:19 PM
At Krilanos' movement, Jurgen rolls his eyes. Of course the man would change directions. Again the sorcerer-paladin looks to Yorrick. "We're going to step again..."
He casts Dimension Door and moves with the bear to AD58. The position wasn't perfect, but it would have to do. Now, time for Jurgen to try a bit of Chaos on the madman. He wasn't going to plan out his actions here, but instead leave it up to their chaotic powers.
(1d3. Result determines how Jurgen's gunna act next round. 1: Paladin. 2: Sorcerer. 3: Protector. Sorcerer it is.)

Trace moves to postion himself between the dwarves and the mad man, then sends the tiger to close on the mad man and engage. (DM places Trace at AF,47)
Shadow shadows his human (moves to AE, 46)
The tiger follows Trace and then rushes off towards Krilanos. (double move to AP,57) (ooc: Trace, please keep track of Tiger stats and how many rounds expended on the spell in your post)
Kazak gains altitude and keeps flying towards the madman of chaos. His tattoo continues to itch, but there is no other reaction. (Flying double move with Firn'gaer's Haste = 180 foot move, puts Kazak on 5 foot Scale Map at X,36)
Savin moves another 60 closer to the prancing madman and sucks down a potion of enlarge. (BC, 46)
Peerimus cuts to his right [AG/44] , and prepares a Greater dispel in case Krilanos tries to teleport or dimensional door. (Readied Action vs Krilanos casting spell: Dispel Chek 31)
Durgan calls in disgust to the dwarves and then concentrates on Krilanos. Lowering his head and running full tilt allows him to make up ground rapidly, especially with Firn'gaer's Haste spell. (Doesn't stack, but the Haste gives 30 feet vs the Boots 10 feet, so the Haste takes precedence. Durgan can move 50x4 [run] for 200 feet and ends up at O,36 on the 5' Scale Map)
Jurgen Dim Door's with Yorrick and moves to cut off Krilanos (move to AD58)
Firn'gaer uses another charge from his staff of fire to wall off the other charge of dwarves.
......................
The last five charging dwarves are effectively corralled by Firn'gaer. Like the other five, they stop in thier tracks when confronted by a flaming wall of magic.
Hannan's dwarves bring Barla and her frothing madmen under control, and the entire contingent is starting to move in the right direction: towards the Rose Arch.
The elves hold thier fire.
.........................
Krilanos surveys the widely dispersed but approaching Children of Chaos and he... grins. "I guess this is a good of opportunity as chance is giving me", he says with a laugh, "I guess it is time to FIGHT!"
The crazy man streaks off towards the enlarged Savin (90 foot move), and at the last second dodges through Savin's guard (Tumble at half speed for 10 feet:28, no AOO), AND plants a kick on Savin's thigh that definitely is going to leave a bruise. Worse, all the magical enhancements that Savin has (haste, enlarge, guantlets, blink, etc) stop working!!! (AC 35, Dam: 14) "Tag, you're it!", he shrieks in laughter. Spellcraft DC 25 Highlight to display spoiler: { Anti-magic Shell }
(ooc: George, I made a mistake on the map. Currenly Savin is medium sized.)
And from the sands where Krilanos was standing emerges a dark blue serpent that rises, rises, and rises into the air. Pushing forward, it lifts immense bat-wings from the sand and gazes with two coals others may call eyes. "I AM OZHONE!!, the creature shouts, "and all of the gold and meat in this Valley are MINE!!!". To emphasize his point, a bolt of lightning emerges from his mouth to strike Jurgen and Yorrick. Jurgen and Yorrick take 65 damage. Reflex DC 27 for half.

The dragon erupts from the desert and the valley is a gasp with a flood of emotions. Firn'gaer's attention is no longer the dwarves or elves, but the dragon. Armed with a staff in each hand. Raising the staff of fire, Firn'gaer calls forth a fireball, which streaks towards the dragon, and a ball of fire erupts around the dragon.
"Lhari I might need you assistance in this fight. Send a fireball at the dragon as well." If Lhari would do so a second fireball streaks towards the dragon. [OOC - Intelligent weapons and items can act on their own, but I assume that if the staff is acting on its own that it's level would be that of the general staff - 13th level for a staff of evocation and Lhari's Intelligence modifier for save DCs. Ignore the 32 roll. I was looking at Staff of Fire when I did that roll. The fireball from Staff of Evocation is 10d6.]
Fireball: 37 points of damage; Reflex save DC21 for half (SR check 34) (his range is 960 feet) Lhari Fireball: 32 points of damage; Reflex save DC16 (SR check 22) (his range is 920 feet)

Peerimus watches as Krilanos closes towards Savin. One less thing to worry about at least. It also seemed that Hannan had his own people under control and that the elves were content enough to stay put and see if the CoC could indeed sort this out. Perhaps it would... The thought freezes and flees the druids mind without completion as the great blue serpant rose from the ground. That is a great deal of dragon and while Savin and Trace have both fought one before, this was Peerimus's first time gazing upon one of the most powerful and intelligent creatures of the Wold. Part of his mind and soul revolted aginst the idea of destroying or rather attempting to destroy so grand a creature.
Lightning flashes across the ground and a terrible roar of challenge and pain comes from the great ursine Yorrick. Peerimus' thoughts converge instantly and all thought of the dragon being more than an evil inflicting ittself upon the Green Valley leave him. Instantly he recognizes why the land of near desert is why it is and he curses himself for not thinking forward, but being wrapped up in Krilanos and the others. A powerful presence will change the land, feed it and the land will adapt to the being. A great and powerful dragon transformed the land to the dry desert it now is.
more coming....
Peerimus moves towards Jurgen and Yorrick AD/53 and shifts back to human form. A call to Yorrick brings the great bear to his side. [handle animal 26]

Jurgen sees the dragon appear and swears. Fortunately, only Yorrick can hear his frustration. At the words "gold and meat", Jurgen considers attempting to strike a deal with the serpent. Even as the lightning bolt blasts towards the him, he still debates it. Jurgen's attempt to dodge it only has him tripping over Yorrick's paws. The lightning blasts through him [Reflex Save - d20+15=23 Fail vs DC 27]. Before the paladin can get a word out, Firn'gaer's fireballs make that option less viable. Still... "If you, Ozhone, kill us now, how will you ever get our stashes of gold? And we could get lucky and do you some serious harm... Perhaps a deal can be made." [Diplomacy Check - d20+19=28] Jurgen feels like an idiot saying it, but the Children needed to catch a break sometime, didn't they?
Regardless, Jurgen wishes to retreat and heal. But then he remembers that he was going to allow some randomness into his actions. And Krilanos needed to be hit. He moves to AD55 and fires a set of Magic Missiles at the madman [5d4+5=18 Damage. SR Check: d20+12=16]. "Durgan and Kazak, get to Krilanos. He's still our target. Peerimus, where do you want Yorrick?" And if the druid has a thought on the matter, Jurgen will immediately ask it of the bear. Otherwise, he'll tell the bear to move towards Krilanos, and avoid the dragon.

Savin winces at the kick but then goes into a flurry of his own legs and punches flying fast. He uses his stunning blow feat for the first attack doubting it will work but hoping anyway. He knows he must fight this crazy on his own until his friends can either come to his aid or defeat the dragon that appeared.
Savin hits ac 33 (took off magical bonuses to strength and velvet fist) ac 32 and ac 32 assuming the rest missed. Damage is 12 +11+9 or a total of 32.
Stunning fist needs a fort save of 20 to save.

Kazak flies straight towards the rising dragon, gaining altitude and speed. He draws his sword of stone to "put da hurtin on ya " . (double move, 90 feet up and at AP,54)
Firn'gaer calls forth a fireball that the blue dragon partially dodges (18 damage), and brandishing Lhari, asks intelligent staff to do the same. "Confronting the enemies of the champions of Chaos is what I live for!" exclaims Lhari. "Well, not technically live, per se, but ...." Firn'gaer gets a distinct mental image of a curmudeonly professor getting back on track to a subject. "Let's knock this dragon back a couple notches!" And another fireball erupts on the serpent, but it looks like the dragon's Spell Resistance defeats the attempt. (ooc: Firn'gaer is still hovering in between the dwarves and elves.)
Trace has a bit of a sinking feeling in his stomach when the dragon appears but keeps his eyes trained on the mad man, firing four distance/seeking arrows at the mad man. Two strike Krilanos, but the special effects have no effect. (22 damage to Krilanos)
Shadow holds her ground waiting for a command.
The Tiger changes direction and makes it's way to the mad man, pouncing on the crazy man, but winks out 10 feet from the madman! Spellcraft DC 25 Highlight to display spoiler: { Anti-magic Shell }
Peerimus moves towards Jurgen and Yorrick (AD/53) and shifts back to human form. A call to Yorrick brings the great bear to his side. [handle animal 26]. Yorrick pads to his friend's side.
Jurgen sees the dragon appear and swears. He attempts to placate the dragon, but it looks like Ohzone is in no mood to talk. (ooc: generally, one needs 10 rounds of talking to try a sucessful Diplomacy check). For the moment, he concentrates his attacks on Krilanos, but his spell fares no better than the Tiger, winking out 10 feet before the madman. Spellcraft DC 25 Highlight to display spoiler: { Anti-magic Shell }
Durgan points out the dragon is going to be worse than Krilanos and runs as fast as he can towards the dragon. (ooc: interpreting 'full speed' as x4 run. 20+30 Haste x4 = 200 feet) (moves to AS, 57)
Savin winces at the kick and goes into a flurry of his own legs and punches flying fast. Krilanos staggers as two get through his defenses, but his eyes are bright, the stunning fist failing to find a nerve. (32 damage to Krilanos)
........................
The elves are no longer seen at the forest edge.
The dwarves, eyes wide and staring at the blue dragon, begin to hustle back to the Rose Arch.
........................
Krilanos gets down to the serious business of drubbing Savin. Though something strange happens... Savin suddenly grows to Large size, begins blinking again, and all his other enchantments return! (ooc: a round is stil expended from the blinking). Krilanos goes into his own flurry of blows, three striking through Savin's defenses, and accompanied by thunderous sounds. Savin himself is completely unaffected because of his blinking (missed all three!)
Ohzone mantles his wings as the dwarves rush into his deadly range. "HA!" he roars, and the feeling of confronting an immense power comes over all the Children of Chaos. All CoC Save Will DC 19 or shaken 4d6 rounds.
A sidling move brings claws and teeth within range of the running Durgan, and the dragon begins to evicerate the dwarf. Smacked in quick succession by two wings, two claws, and one crushing mouth, Durgan is lifted off the ground in one claw, bleeding from many wounds. (Grappled: 48) (AC, 37, 35, 48, 33, 46 Damage: 19, 11, 8, 10, 12 for 60 damage)

"Krilanos has an antimagic field around him. I'm moving to the dragon, since I'm useless without magic." Jurgen sends through the message spell.

With a flick of his wrist he sends three Scorching Rays at Ohzone.
With a quick mental roll of the dice, Jurgen changes his plan of attack and prepares to use his sword.

Savin grins as his magics come back into play and launches into another flurry of blows combining two feats into his first attack. (Stunning fist and quivering palm) Krilanos. Savin then wills Krilanos to die.
Save vs stunning fist and quivering palm are fort saves of 23
Two of Savin's attacks should have hit but his own blinking spell have hurt Savin causing him to miss his second blow. Savin's blow does 22 points of damage and he gets another 3 points of damage if Krilanos is evil due to the Holy part of his gloves.

The Dragon opens its wings and Peerimus takes in the graduer that is Ohzone. Beautiful, majestic and inspiring are all thoughts that come to his mind, but fear in any way is not. The druid also notes the goings on about Krilanos. It will definately be more up to Savin than the rest of them. Yorrick could be useful as well and Peerimus plans to send the bear to help as soon as he can. First however the dwarven brothers, brave and powerful as they are, could use some help.
Peerimus begins casting calling out ot Mother and Father to bring his companions allies in thier fight against the mighty dragon. [Spont cast SNA VIII Greater Elemental Air Number 2, Plan on placing them based on Dragon's location next round]

Jurgen is shaken on seeing the fearsome majesty of the dragon, but is able to concentrate enough to send three Scorching Rays at Ohzone. One burns through the dragon's Spell Resistance, singing its dark blue scales. Changing tactics, the Protector then draws his sword. (17 damage to Ohzone)
Savin grins as his magics come back into play and launches into another flurry of blows combining two feats into his first attack. Krilanos looks like he expects the first move to be a fient and gets smacked right in the forehead with the heal of Savin's palm. Rocking back, Krilanos holds onto sanity and life, but is not looking like he is enjoying the exchange. (Stunning fist save:30 and quivering palm save:23) (22 damage to Krilanos)
Durgan is held fast in the powerful claw of Ohzone and cannot even get a finger to his backpack to retreive a potion! (Need to win a Grapple Check at DC 55 to break grapple or to get potion from HHH)
Kazak charges at the blue Dragon and slashes at the dark blue dragon .....leaving a mark on the beast! (15 damage to Ohzone)
Peerimus begins casting a complicated spell.
Trace lets out a high pitched scream when the dragon shows its full size, and shakily continues to fight. He wings a couple of arrows into Krilanos, who is certainly getting the worst of this fight. (27 damage to Krilanos) The holy attacks seem to have no effect.
Shadow holds her ground waiting for a command.
The Tiger blinks back into existance and shakes its head for a second before trying to grapple with Krilanos, but misses the elusive prey.
Firn'gaer moves 40-ft closer to the dragon and he and Lhari sends more fireballs at the beast (placed so not to hit any combatants fighting it. Both fireballs fail to overcome its spell resistance and just become a display of fiery blooms around the dragon.
........................
The elves are no longer seen at the forest edge.
The dwarves continue to hustle back to the Rose Arch.
........................
Krilanos is getting seriously pummeled by Savin and the arrows arching in from Trace aren't helping matters at all. "Change and chance are always better than stagnation and predictability!" he shouts accusingly at Savin. "I laugh at the Chaos Bell choosing a man of laws to be the Champion for change." He suddenly looks sad. "I pity you, for you must be very confused." And then he grins in triumph. "See? I told you chaos is better! The powers of Chaos have given me the opportunity to kill you another time." And he disappears. Spellcraft: Dc 17 Highlight to display spoiler: { Dimension Door } (ooC: Savin gets an AOO, Krilanos concentration to maintain leaving is DC 24)
Ohzone pretty much ignores the protestations of Durgan, only squeezing him a little in a cruel example of how helpless the dwarf is. (grapple: 59)(12 damage to Durgan).
Looking about the battlefield very much like a cat with too many crippled mice, the dragon's eyes spot Peerimus' incantations. (Spellcraft:28) "NOW, NONE OF THAT, LITTLE ONE", it chides, "SUMMONED CREATURES DO NOT TASTE AS GOOD AS FRESH MEAT!" The dragon archs his flight down to the Druid while creating his own incantation, and plants a claw across Peerimus' chest which quickly grabs hold. (AC 33, Damage 13) The druid now finds himself in a triple conundrum. He is wounded (Concentrate DC 23 or lose spell), Grappled (can't cast spell while grappled; lose spell), and feels the effects of the dragon's spell (Touch of Idiocy; lose 6 points Intelligence, 3 points Wisdom, and 1 point Charisma)
Laughing like a child breaking his toys, Ohzone grins at Yorrick. "I HAVEN"T HAD BEAR IN A LONG TIME!" The grandeur of the most magical and powerful creature in the Wold is impressed into the Kodiak. (Intimidate: 33. Yorrick must Save DC 33 by d20 + Hit Dice + Wisdom bonus + fear modifiers or become Shaken)
Krilanos AC 32, 103 damage Ohzone AC 34, SR 24, 50 damage

Savin simply gets pissed and slams his fist into Krilano's face as hard as he can doing 21 points of damage. (ooc rolled to hit and missed with a natural 1, rerolled spending a hero point and hit ac 36 for 21 points of damage. Rolled the d 6s in error. Please ignore. Blink roll of 90
In looking at concentration checks, it says the spellcaster needs to roll 10 + damage to get the spell off. That would mean he would need a concentration check of 32. I don't think he made it, so I will follow up like he is still there.
Savin smiles grimly as the look of surprise overtakes Krilano's face and he says, "Never monolog during a battle. Savin wades in with another flurry of blows. He only manages to land one more blow but does another 17 points of damage to the crazy chaos agent.
hit ac 34 for 17 points and rolled a 30% for blink. Other rolls were misses.

Yorrick's eyes open a bit wider as the Dragon lands before him. [Save 31 fail] He knows he is over matched, but he also knows his life long friend is in terrible danger. Yorrick roars back, though not as strong as he has been known to do and strikes at the near impeneratrable armor of Ohzone. [AC 18/21/35 crit 28 Dmg 12 forgot the -2 on the dmg so only 10.

The Dragon closes and grabs the druid much quicker than he thought. A misclaculation the druid hopes he survives to learn from. There is no escaping from the dragon and he knows it. Perhaps he could bide himself and the others some time. Peerimus shifts and becomes a living magical fire in Ohzones grasp [Wildshape to Large Fire Elemental 3 Dmg Fire Reflex DC 17 or catch fire]

Durgan attempts to struggle but realizes the futility of it. He tries to use the only weapon left him; his voice.
Kazak flies to catch up to the dragon (move action) and is able to strike once (standard action) to damage Ohzone some more. (15 damage to Ohzone)
Savin slams his fist into Krilano's face, and enjoys the surpirse as the would-be chaos champion fizzles his spell. Another flurry of fists is able to sneak another past Krilanos' guard. (38 damage to Krilanos)
Yorrick's eyes open a bit wider, but bites hard on Ohzone's leg. (12 damage to Ohzone; no -2 to damage for Shaken)
Jurgen charges straight towards the dragon and calls upon the powers of Domi to help take down the wyrm. (23 damage to Ohzone)
Trace sends forth four more arrows against Krilanos, two missing, one snatched out of the very air by Krilanos, and only one driving home. (11 damage to Krilanos) (ooc: and if I remembered earlier, he would've been snatching arrows all along! Oh well, my loss :)
Shadow holds her ground waiting for a command.
The Tiger continues to attack, having poor luck against Krilanos.
Peerimus is well and truely captured, and so tries another tactic, making it uncomfortable for Ohzone to hold a Fire Elemental!
Coming closer, Firn'gaer and his staff companion, Lhari, successfully set a couple of fireballs into the Blue Dragon. It is tricky, but possible for an extremely intelligent being like the gnome Wizard to find some dragon NOT surrounded by his companions. (35 damage on Ohzone) ........................
Krilanos head is slapped back by Savin's one attack, he half-spins with the second attack, and then stands stock still as two arrows snap into him. And now he looks mad. Laughing through the blood in his beard, his eyes bore into Savin's. "But you didn't say 'please', heheheh... "Let's play patty-cake!" Half-crazed, Krilanos launches a tremendous number of attacks against Savin, striking again, and again, and again!
Every strike is at a vital spot (Stunning Fist), and the first also sets up a vibration in Savin's body (Quivering Palm). Though one attack misses from Savin's blinking and two more fail to penetrate Savin's defenses, the others all strike home. To top it off, each blow that hits thunders with added chaotic power (Sonic Attack) (AC 32 (77%), 39crit32 (68%), 26, 35crit29no (38%), 19, 36 (68%); Damage: 12crit7+1sonic, 16+6sonic, 17+5sonic = Savin takes 64 damage; must save 3 times vs Stunning Blow DC 23, and one time vs Death DC 23) (ooc: I guess this makes up for the terrible showing Krilanos has had so far!)
And the Chaos power imbueing Krilanos seems to have changed again. Now, the crazy man is blurry and it is difficult to know where he is. (ooc: Displacement; 50% miss chance)
Ohzone winces at the power Jurgen has in his swing, though he laughs again as the flame creature in his claw tries ineffectually to hurt him. The only problem he has is that he's not big enough to carry off a Large creature, and the dragon seems to want to change tactics.
Keeping Durgan in a free claw (Snatch free action damage on grapple)(Grapple: 60 Damage: 11)
With another claw (standard attack), he reaches out and swipes at Peerimus (AC 41, Damage 11) and touches him with another Touch of Idiocy (Peerimus loses 5 Intelligence, 5 Wisdom, and 2 Charisma)
And then the dragon takes to the air, pumping his huge wings to spray sand and dirt around the battlefield. (Yorrick, Jurgen, Peerimus, and Kazak get AOOs) He gains altitude and distance quickly, being 150 feet away and 80 feet up in a matter of seconds. (BK,53) "COME, SOFT THINGS!!

Taking advantage of the dragon's move upward, Jurgen takes another swipe. His sword digs into Ohzone's flesh, but not enough to injure as much as his last strike [Attack of Opportunity - + 20 Regular Bonus - 2 Shaken d20+18=36 - Damage: d6+4=5 + 2d6=5 = 10 Damage]. The rapier does no more than cause a knick. Instead of watching the dragon take flight, Jurgen glances over at Krilanos. He plans on moving towards Savin's fight since flight isn't exactly the paladin's strong point.
As such, Jurgen sees Savin go from handily dealing with Krilanos to falling to the ground. "SAVIN!" He passes through the whisper spell. And then, not sure whether Savin is okay or not, passes to the rest of the group: "Krilanos is loose!"
"CRONES!" He shouts into his Spiral Tattoo, not expecting an answer, but frustrated at Krilanos' power. Even if Jurgen were to attempt to fight Krilanos with that antimagic field up, it would be no contest. "Your champions are falling!" Embracing the powers of chaos that the Children had was against Jurgen's instincts, but he was trying.
With Durgan being taken away, Jurgen had to move fast if he wanted to help the dwarf. A quick cast of Telekinesis towards the dragon and the sorcerer attempts to disarm Durgan from Ozhone. [Disarm Attack Roll - + 12 Caster Level + 7 Charisma Bonus - 2 Shaken d20+15=21. I'll leave any other bonus' or penalties for such a ridiculous action in your hands. I'm also going to argue that, since Durgan won't immediately start falling because Telekinesis is a concentration based spell and, thus, is in my control. Of course, none of this will matter with such a meager attack roll. Ignore the d20+17]
[OOC: Krilanos' attempt to cast Dimension Door. He was trying to cast it within an Antimagic Field. Was that a mistake or should we take that as meaning either A: the field is gone or B: something else is happening with him?]

Chaos Among Us[DM SteveK] Wednesday September 17th, 2008 10:53:59 PM
too late to post. will do tomorrow.
Kazak soars upward and chases after the fleeing dragon. Moving with his haste, he is fast enough to keep up with the dragon, but not quick enough to attack at the same time. Wisely (DM discretion since it wasn't mentioned) Kazak keeps out of the Huge dragons' threat area to avoid a tail strike.
Peerimus swipes at the foul creature as it departs, nothing more than the impulses of survival moving through him. Then feeling his hurts, he heals himself and Yorrick.
Yorrick roars and strikes without effect again, the dragon's armor is simpy too tough.
Firn'gaer Dim Doors closer to the fight, suggesting that Lhari Readies a Force Wall to protect thier more exposed position. Lhari vibrates affirmitively, "And perhaps a whole bunch of Force Walls can trap the dragon and save the Children!" adds the staff. "After all, if you all die, the Crones will have to find another chaos champions group, which will probably be led by that Krilanos fellow."
Trace screams again, in rage this time and sends forth four arrows at his target. Two look like they would be true, but the first is targeted against Krilanos' displaced image (20% miss), and the second is plucked out of the air by the chaos-monk!
Shadow bolts forward to attack Krilanos, but the ebony panther is unable to grab ahold.
The tiger (7/9 rounds) continues to attack and try to drag Krilanos down, and continues to have no luck.
Taking advantage of the dragon's move upward, Jurgen takes another swipe, and adds to its small hurts. (10 Damage to Ohzone). "Krilanos is loose!" he messages to the other Children as Savin falls, and then Jurgen hopes he can get some chaotic powers of his own by calling for the Crones. Jurgen casts Telekinesis and attempts to pull Durgan from Ozhone. (Disarm is against objects, not grapples, but I'll add the Telekinesis as an additional grappler in the grapple between Durgan and Ohzone) He almost feels a touch at his Tattoo, but no, it is gone.
Durgan keeps up the physical and verbal assault against the dragon, and feels Jurgens Telekinesis assistance. With a wrench, he almost breaks free, and then the impossible happens. Durgan's Tattoo flares brightly, burning the dwarf (6 damage to Durgan), but causing Ohzone's claw to open! Durgan is free of the dragon and then falls the 80 feet to the ground to land in a heap. (26 falling damage to Durgan)
........................
Krilanos narrows his eyes for a second to see if Savin is shamming (Sense Motive:36) and then dances in a cirlcle giggling. "The clock struck one, the mouse fell down..." he cackles. Then he turns to the two cats before him. "Eeny, meenie, minie, moe, which cat is going to go?"
And the chaos-monk sidles in towards Shadow. Krilanos blinks rapidly in-and-out (DC 15 Highlight to display spoiler: {Blink}, but every fist, foot, elbow, knee, and open hand strike the black panther. Drops of acid now drip from his body as the attacks burn into Shadow. (ooc: Leaving five feet from Trace, Shadow loses the shared Barkskin and Cat's Grace spells).

Ohzone roars in anger as Durgan plummets free. "SO, THOU ARE FREE, BUT THy BROTHER IS NOW IN My CLUTCHES!!" Performing a wingover, Ohzone streaks back towards Kazak, but crashes into the thin air! Lhari the Staff of Evocation's Readied Wall of Force spell is now between Ohzone and Kazak!!
Ohzone staggers in the air and hovers in place to collect his bearings.

Peerimus shifts back to Human form. He looks about, unsure what he should do. Yorrick looks to his friend normally so confident and moving forward, now a mere shell of himself. the bear whimpers a bit and nudges him. the druid looks to Yorrick, things were all right, the bear, his friend, even more than that his connection of life was here and to the man that was all that truly mattered. The bear was hurt and so the man knew what he must do next.

As Durgan is freed he cries out. "AHA! take that ye beastie! Mebbe these durned tattoos ain't so bad after all." Then Durgan looks down. "Eh, I could be mistaken." Durgan flaps his arms wildly as he falls, figuring maybe the tattoo will turn him into a bird like Peerimus can. As he peels himself up off the ground he mutters, "no such luck."
Seeing the dragon fly into the wall of force, Durgan taunts it again. "Mighty sloppy flying there little blue. I ain't fer sayin what's little either. So why don't ye come down here and try again eh?"
"Ummm, Jurgen I could use a little bit of patching here."

Hey guys, Thinking of not bringing Savin back but rerolling a new character. Trying to decide between a cleric and a sorceror. Any opinions?

OOC- we need a cleric badly. But we may have a new player soon if you want to talk the newbie into it.
Other than that, play what you like. You are better off with a character you are happy with.

Jurgen [AC: 39, HP 76/141] Thursday September 18th, 2008 10:13:01 PM
Jurgen catches Durgan's request and considers a snarky reply. Instead, the paladin takes a moment to survey the battlefield. Savin and Shadow down. Peerimus taken out of the fight, which likely meant Yorrick too. Jurgen wondered how Trace was reacting to Shadow's death and if the elf would be able to think beyond his lust for Krilanos' blood. The Children were scattered and facing serious losses if they weren't careful. "We need to pick and take out a single target."
"Peerimus," Jurgen places a hand on the druid, "if you get scared, run home." He points in the direction of the Arch. He didn't know whether Peerimus would be able to understand him, but if fear caused the druid to flee, Jurgen wanted to be able to find him later. "Yorrick... Guide him to safety." He keeps pointing towards the Arch.
He pulls out his Cure Serious Wounds wand and casts Dimension Door, bringing himself next to Durgan. "I'm not going to be able to do much to help your wounds, but I'll try..."

But that changes to shock quickly when the dragon performs its wingover manuver " come on ya overgrown bat " growls Kazak

Trace is beside him self in anger when Shadow falls. His tattoo itches again, but it doesn't distract him from Krilanos. Four more arrows spin in, one can't penetrate Krilanos' defense, one wastes itself against a displaced image, one is deflected by the chaos-monk, and one buries itself in the monk's arm. (10 damage to Krilanos)
Tiger roars in frustration at never getting his paws wet with blood.
Peerimus shifts to Human and looks about. Blinking, he sees Yorrick and has enough intelligence left to tell 'friend', so heals some more. The Broken Tattoo on his hand itches.
Durgan stands up (move action), retrieves a potion from his Haversack (move action), intending to drink it soon. His tattoo also itches.
Firn'gaer targets the dragon with a Grasping Hand. He also urges Lhari to continue to block any of the dragon's attacks. "Yes, preservation is going to be necessary, I think", the staff responds. The Grasping Spell awakens, and Firn'gaer's Spiral Tattoo flares. For some reason, Firn'gaer completely misses with the Grasping Hand on the Dragon. (ooc: The SR is still good, don't have to roll again)
Jurgen attempts to get through to Peerimus and then Yorrick. Unsure of his success, he Dim Doors over to Durgan with a wand to assist. Jurgen's Spiral Tattoo continues to itch.
Kazak is rather closer than he would prefer to a Huge dragon, but his courage never falters, pelting Ohzone with words and a javelin, the stour dwarf keeps fighting. Kazak's tattoo flares, burning him (5 damage to Kazak), but improbably, the javelin flies true and buries itself in Ohzone's arm. (roll damage and ignore dam resistance)
........................
Krilanos sneers at Trace, ignoring the additional arrow in his body. "Did kitty fall down and go boom?" he asks mockingly. "Mommy always said to use your words!", and then Krilanos is moving forward. Fast, unbelievably fast. Faster than even Savin could move, Krilanos crosses the 100 feet that separated him from Trace almost faster than a blink of the eyes and and tries to snatch the Whispering Bow from Trace's hands. (Disarm attack AC27 failed). But now the blood-speckled monk is nose-to-nose with Trace and he smiles wickedly. "Your turn to visit the lands of the dead", he croons. (move to AG,48)
Ohzone is starting to get angry, and his roaring voice is silent. There are still too many opponents walking around, and so he flips into another wingover, dropping his hieght and flies further east. (move to BW,55) Turning his snakey head, he blasts another bolt of lightning from his mouth, striking both Jurgen and Durgan. (Jurgen and Durgan take 72 electrical damage, Reflex DC 27 for half ie 36)
Lhari tries to protect the other Children but has to shrug his mental shoulders. "That last Wall was the furthest range I could manage", he complains, "I can't help anyone further out!"

If you roll up a new character, you will start with 105,000xp (minimum for level 15) (and yes, this means that all survivors of this module will be at least 15th level)
I'm going to have to look up what is the standard gold amount for a 15th level character.
For Savin, he is too powerful to be hanging around Heranmar as an NPC right now. If he is raised and becomes an NPC, he is (at least in the short term) going to go away and meditate on What-It-All-Means. After that, the future is open.
The reincarnation option roleplay is available, and yes, there may be sufficient chaos power in the area for a change of class. To keep a measure of chaos in this option, George, you get to choose the new class for Savin, but DM will roll on the Reincarnation Table for type of creature. How's that?
Jurgen [AC: 39, HP 4/141] d20+13=17 ; Friday September 19th, 2008 11:16:19 AM
Jurgen gets hit by Ohzone's lightning bolt. He feels woozy and weak on his feet. He puts a hand on Durgan's shoulder to keep himself from tumbling over. He ignores the itching in his tattoo, not sure if e was going to live long enough to care about it. With his hand on Durgan, Jurgen Dimension Doors AB 55.
"I'll heal you, but Trace is about to go toe-to-toe with Krilanos. He can't possibly last..." He coughs and specks of blood splatter his hand as he covers his mouth. What Jurgen wouldn't give for Ilsidur's magic right now. But he didn't have the luxury of staying back and hiding.

Firn'gaer changes targets. He decides that a single spell might buy the people dealing with Krilanos some time. He targets the area, AF47-AG48 with a reverse gravity. Krilanos falls upwards 70-ft.
He moves 40-ft closer to the dragon (AU45) "I don't know if this will help get them in range, but it will have to do for now."

The man looks to the other, Jurgen. He cocks his head as the other speaks and glances back towards the arch. Does he want me to leave? He is my friend too, I should not leave. The man looks at his hand, it itched and he is not sure he likes it, but there are such other sights and sounds. To the north, the man with the bow, yes he was a friend. A good friend like the bear and big cat. That other man. That other man is hurting him. That other man hurt his big cat friend. that other man is not nice. But what could he do? The Bear, the bear could help, the bear listens to the man and the man can help the bear. Peerimus turns and touches Yorrick, "Go help our friend, stop the bad man."
Energy floods Yorrick and the large kodiak nearly doubles in size. [Cast Animal Growth] [Handle animal Attack Krilanos 30]
Yorrick grows, now over 20' from nose to tail and weighing nearly 2 tons, the mighty bear of the Southern continent knows what to do. Following the pointing finger towards Trace, Yorrick moves to engage the mad man. The gods of Chaos immediately come to rescue however and the bear misses. [Hit AC 25]
Peerimus then looks towards the dragon and the flash, the rolling thunder, he thinks of Mother and Father. Running through the fields, the display above his head and rolling through his chest and the water flicking across his face and arms. Amid the chaos and pain, the Druid Peerimus looks up to the blue sky and smiles.

Jurgen gets hit too and moves them both back with a timely dimension door. "Durned itchin' tattoo. Mebbe it could do sumthin useful sometime like heal us." Durgan drops his defensive stance and drops to his knees. "Jurgen. Ye are the protector. Get me brudder and as many of the Children as ye can and get out of here. We don't have to finish Krilanos we already beat him by stopping him from spilling the blood of the noble races here."

Jurgen reeks of electrical burns, and grabs Durgan to Dim Door closer to his allies. (AB 55)
Firn'gaer targets Krilanos with a reverse gravity spell. The chaos-monk waves his hands wildly, but has nothing to anchor him down on the desert floor and he shoots 70 feet into the air! His Spiral Tattoo itches once more, yet the gnomes spell seems to work as predicted. The Grasping Hand attacks Ohzone again, but the Huge Dragon is able to fight off the spell once more. Then, flying closer to the dragon, he keeps himself and Lhari between the dragon and the Children of Chaos. (AU45)
Peerimus, functioning no more intelligently as a pack animal, still understands the repercussions of everything he can comprehend. He sends his powerful companion to help his pack, and assists with a little magic.
Yorrick grows, now over 20' from nose to tail and weighing nearly 2 tons, the mighty bear of the Southern continent moves to the mad man, but is unable to reach Krilanos high above the desert floor.
Kazak shakes his head, but sends another javelin at the dragon. Again, his tattoo flares, burning the dwarf (6 damage to Kazak), but the javelin strikes true! (9 damage for Ohzone). He then continues to fly after the dragon, keeping away from the deadly tail. Unfortuneately, he outruns the maximum distance of Lhari's Wall of Force spell!
Durgan appreciates the Dim Door by Jurgen, but in his relief, forgets to drink his healing potion before comeing out of his Defensive Stance. The dwarf's eyes roll up in his head and he falls unconsious.
Trace jerks back from Krilanos, and retains his Whispering Bow, but the loss of Shadow delays his actions. Coupled with Krilanos rising into the air, the ranger gets off no shots while he adjusts to the sudden change of battle.
........................
Krilanos shouts an exclamation as he is hauled into the air by Firn'gear's spell, slowly rotating at the top of the gravity anomoly. Then the magical emanations around the chaos-monk change again and he grins. "You just can't keep a real champion up!", he offers gleefully, and Air Walks out of the spell. Ice particles form over his skin, and Krilanos becomes blurry as images dance around where he should be. "Maybe I should be taking care of a pipsqueak spellcaster instead!", he announces, and Krilanos charges across the air towards Firn'gaer. Running across the air, he crosses the space in a heartbeat, but slams into another Wall of Force by Lhari the Staff. (AT,45)
Ohzone grins as he executes another wingover then pumps hard to climb to Kazak. "YOU ARE A BRAVE AND FOOLISH MORTAL, DWARF!", he shouts, "YOUR FRIENDS ARE TOO FAR AWAY, AND IT IS ONLY YOU AND I. AND I AM OHZONE!!" The great blue head snakes out and crushes into Kazak, then holds him like a dog with a ragdoll. (AC 52, Damage 21, Imp Grapple: 57) (Kazak takes 21 damage)

(OOC: There's the problem with retreating now. We can't. Kazak is trapped in Ohzone's grip. The only one who can realistically get us out of here is Firn'gaer with a Teleport spell (since Krilanos is going to easily catch up with us and Ozhone too). Not to mention that, even with Savin down, a single teleport would mean leaving someone behind. Plus Yorrick. I think our best chance right now is to throw everything we've got at Krilanos and hope we can finish him off. Realistically? Unless Krilanos is on the verge of death right now, I'm not sure we can finish him.
Also, to Brian: I feel a need to explain why I didn't toss you a heal this round. Any heal I can do (Cure Serious Wounds) would hardly bring you up to fighting standards. And you can last at least one round right now. Meanwhile, Krilanos might not need more than one round to take out Firn'gaer. Sorry :( )
Jurgen glances down at Durgan and mutters an apology. "I'll heal you in a moment. But Firn'gaer's going to join Savin if Krilanos doesn't stop attacking him." The paladin turns toward Krilanos and points three more Scorching Rays aimed, with some ire, directly into the heart of the chaos monk. It takes him a moment to realize how injure he still is from Ozhone's lightning he wavers a bit, almost falling next to Durgan, before he manages to steady himself.

(ooc: map problems again. Please use old map and the map locations after each person's post.)
Trace casts a defensive spell on himself and flies out to get closer to Kazak and the Dragon (move to AQ,50)
Peerimus has Yorrick move back to the druid to keep him safe while he asks for Ebyron to bring in some flying help. (full round action, NSA VI to arrive Peerimus' turn next post) (Yorrick to AE,50) (Peerimus at AD,53)
Firn'gaer rises up and casts a Black Tentacles that are anchored on the Wall of Force. The rubber black tendrils lash out in a hemisphere on the western side of the Wall of Force, and sucessfully grabs Krilanos in its strong hold! (Firn'gaer AU,45 110' up)
Durgan continues to bleed. (AC,55)
Kazak attempts to retrieve some items from his HHH, but is unable to wriggle around enough to do so.
(ooc: Kazak can attack unarmed strike without winning a grapple check, but he need to win a grapple check to get an item or break the grapple. The difference in the dwarf and dragon is such that a natural 20 (or help from your activated tattoos) are required for Kazak to make any such action)
Jurgen wavers but is able to send three Scorching Rays at Krilanos. One misses due to the chaos-monk's displacement, but the other two burn in leaving terrible marks on the enemy. (32 damage to Krilanos)
........................
Krilanos shouts as he is wrapped up in undulating black tentacles and is unable to break free. Yet the whims of chaos change once more, and Krilanos is surrounded by a field that defeats all magic. "I told you..." he begins as the Tentacles and Wall of Force wink out of existance. However, the other magic that kept Krilanos in the air also disappears, and there is no wall to slow the chaos-monks fall... "Noooo....." Krilanos plummets to the earth and does not rise again. (30 damage to Krilanos) The anti-magic field flickers and is gone. (ooc: completely random, completely amazing!)
Ohzone mouths Kazak (Snatch feat provides automatic damage after successful Grapple), and Kazak begins bleeding in a half dozen more places (22 damage to Kazak) laboring higher, and higher, the dragon soars 160' above the desert before he suddenly lets Kazak go (Grapple check to break Grapple: 49) and grins as his claws wave in a magical pattern. "KRILANOS GAVE ME AN IDEA", he chortles, and the targeted Dispel Magic strikes Kazak. Luckily, Kazak's Fly effect doesn't succumb (Dispel: 14 vs 16) and the dwarf doesn't plummet 160 feet to the desert floor. The haste effect, however, goes away (Dispel: 28 vs 25). And now Kazak is isolated from his allies in the middle of the sky with a very large, grinning, claws like scimitars Blue Dragon! "HMMM", Ohzone says conversationally, "IT DIDN"T WORK. THERE ARE OF COURSE OTHER WAYS TO TENDERIZE MEAT!" (Ohzone BR,55, 160' up) (Kazak BQ,56, 160' up)
Anyone can look at the dragon and see that even though he is hurt, he is not on his last breath. Why, he could probably take the same punishment already inflicted agai and still be fighting...

Trace screams out at the Dragon in its own draconic language "you die now worm, your master is dead and now you will die and I will make a duck pond out of your arrogant head."
Trace can feel blood lust and rage running through him and he lets 3 arrrows go at the dragon. (standard action, favored enemy) and will move in a line straight at the dragon.

Krilanos falls to the ground. His unmoving body is crushed from the fall. "And so Krilanos succumbs to the eventuality of chaos."
The gnome wizard turns his attention to the dragon. Moving 40-ft to BC45, Firn'gaer casts an empowered magic missile at the dragon. Unfortunately, the missiles do not overcome the dragon's inherent magical resistance.

"Father answered!" Peerimus cries. Oh of course he did, he always does. A huge Air elemental appears 60' from the druid "Go help my friend against the blue lizard thing!" Peerimus directs and thanks to the feather he wears the elemental understands it all perfectly.
The elemental also begins climbing rapidly and heading towards the dragon. move 140' up and 140' to come in over the dragon [BS/53]
Peerimus beams as he watches the elemental soar off. The man was happy, he was helping his friends. Yorrick grunts, good bear the bear was here and all was good. Father's helper will help.
Peerimus stands smiling with no other directions forthcoming.

Jurgen [AC: 39, HP 4/141] 3d8+5=15 ; Wednesday September 24th, 2008 1:05:44 AM
Jurgen kneels to the ground and casts Cure Serious Wounds on Durgan, bringing the dwarf back into the waking world. "Krilanos is down. The dragon is left. It doesn't look like Kazak is going to quit..." [15 hp gained]
"Firn'gaer, I may be able to help you hold him down him... We'll see. Time for us to throw everything left at the dragon. But be prepared to Teleport as many of us away as you can if the situation gets worse." Jurgen then turns to Peerimus. "Friend, do you think you could heal Durgan?" And then Jurgen moves to AB 61 to get into line of sight with the dragon.

Trace lashes out with 3 arrrows at the dragon. (without using Manyshot, multiple arrows are a full round action)(AQ,50)

Base +20/15/10, +3 bow, +4 Str, +1 Cats Grace, -2 for 2 range incriments, +0 to hit for favored enemy = +26/21/16 attacks. Based on this, Trace hit once without crit = 16 damage+ 7 holy) (Ohzone takes 23 damage [pending 55 or 77 hp])
Kazak is determined to stand toe-to-toe with Ohzone, and the great Stone Sword strikes out twice. (31 damage to Ohzone) (BQ,56)
Firn'gaer flies closer to the dragon and fires off a spell that fails to overcome the dragon's inherent magical resistance. (BC/45)
Lhari keeps his Wall of Force at the Ready (Firn'gaer keep track of charges)
Peerimus sucessfully remembers the call to Father Ebyron, and the Huge Air Elemental zips towards the designated foe [BS/53]. Then looking around, he recognizes another member of the pack, and the druid still retains the wisdom to know he can help. (Durgan cured 34 hit points) Huge Air Elemental (AC19, HP 136/136, A +19x2, D 2d8+4, dam red 5/-, move 100')
Savin talks to Gargul. Highlight to display spoiler: { The Gray One smiles. "ONLY TO MORTALS, BUT THERE IS WISDOM IN YOUR WORDS EVEN SO. COME AND REST FROM YOUR LABORS, YOU ARE JUDGED, AND NOT FOUND WANTING." The Lands of Rest open up to the one once called 'Savin'.}
Jurgen kneels to the ground and heals Durgan. (Durgan cured 15 hit points)

Ohzone rips at the approaching Air Elemental with his teeth, damaging the outsider (AOO AC 38, D 26- 5 = 21)
The bellows of pain from the Stone Sword and Trace's arrow are another kind of music in the Valley, and Ohzone grits his teeth in a spell before his claw points at Kazak and a thin ray strikes the dwarf. (Combat Casting :21 no AOO; Touch AC 36) (Kazak loses 11 points of Strength!). The dragon then executes another wingover, flying south. "YOU MAY BE POWERFUL SMALL ONES, BUT YOU CAN'T BE EVERYWHERE AT ONCE!" The huge blue dragon calls out. "I STILL SEE YOUR DWARF FRIENDS RUNNING SOUTH. HOW MANY DO YOU THINK I CAN KILL BEFORE YOU GET THERE?" The taunts echo over the valley. Kazak and Air Elemental get an AOO from Ohzone leaving threatened square. Only halfway to the Rose Arch, Hannan and the other dwarves here the dragon and, with furtive looks over thier shoulders, continue to run for safety.

"So, what DO we have left to throw at him? And how are we going to catch up?" As he talks, Durgan puts away his axe and shield and gets out his crossbow. "Time to put this ter some use. Jurgen, if ye still got that spell on, tell me brudder ta get back here and regroup."

"Everyone. I'm moving closer to the dragon. Yorrick and Durgan will go with me.They'll attack. I'll try to blast with my magic. Firn'gaer, if you can get to me in the next few seconds, you can get close enough to keep casting. Otherwise, Peerimus comes with. Trace, keep moving forward and doing damage when you can. Kazak, don't get yourself killed." Jurgen doesn't include Peerimus in the message, not wanting to confuse him.
He takes another charge from his wand and heals Durgan [24 hp]. As well, he gives the dwarf a potion of Cure Moderate Wounds to drink. "Brother Peerimus, please use your healing again on Durgan. I'm going to move us with magic soon... Do not be afraid." He speaks in a calm voice to the druid, knowing the Children's leader was still there and, hopefully, would understand.
(OOC: Ignore the d20. I realized that Ohzone is way out of "Ray" reach from here. I'm hoping you'll let Durgan drink the potion, since he didn't do anything this round. If so, Durgan gets another 17 hp.)

Firn'gaer valiantly tries to keep in range of Ohzone and sends a fireball at the dragon who begins to laugh until the gnome's Tattoo flares white hot. Firngaer is burned, (Firn'gaer take 5 damage) but the fireball penetrates the dragon's spell resistance! (Ohzone takes 36 damage) Lhari continues to be Ready to cast Wall of Force if ever the dragon targets a CoC in his range. (Firn'gaer at BC53)
Durgan urges "We got ta get organized."
Kazak feels weakened but is able to put in a tough strike against the magestic reptile. He continues to fly after and strike at the dragon. Kazak's Tattoo flares brightly as he strikes Ohzone, helping find the critical weakness in the dragon's armored body. (Kazak takes 5 damage) (Ohzone takes 23 damage) The dwarf then continues the pursuit, keeping away from Ohzone's tail.
Trace wishes his tattoo can send his arrows further, and fires four at the dragon. Yet while his companions' Tattoos burned brightly, the Ranger feels a coolness tighten his hand, and all four shots miss!
Jurgen formulates a plan to stop the dragon flying high above the Valley from getting to the dwarves, and then heals Durgan some more. His tattoo tingles. (Durgan healed 24 hp). He is also able to take out a potion to give to the wounded dwarf. Durgan is able to quaff the drink, restoring some more health. His tattoo turns cold, and some of the healing potion spills on the ground! (Durgan healed 5 hp)
Peerimus watches the air beast and dragon dance in the sky and appreciates the power and beauty of the Wold Father.
........................
The Huge Air Elemental strikes out at Ohzone and connects strongly as the dragon flies off. (AC 39crit29miss, Dam; 8), but all is absorbed by Ohzone's damage resistance.
Charging after Ohzone, the elemental is struck by the dark blue tail (AOO: AC45 Dam 24-5=19), and its charge is deflected. (AC 26 miss)
[Huge Air Elemental (AC19, HP 96/136, A +19x2, D 2d8+4, dam red 5/-, move 100')]
Hannan and the dwarves continue to run for the Rose Arch.

Ohzone flips over and grins at Kazak. "AM I AFRAID LITTLE DWARF? NAY, IT IS CALLED STRATEGY, SEPARATING YOU FROM YOUR COMPANIONS BY MY TAUNTS. AND NOW IT IS YOUR TURN!" It is only a five foot move to get Ohzone within his huge reach to Kazak, and the full might of the dragon rips into the isolated hero. The great jaws snap (AC45), two claws rend (49,49), the dwarf is pummelled by two wings in flight (AC 33, 42), and Ohzone brings his tail around to smack hard into Kazak's armor (AC40). The damage is immense, and a battered Kazak is now clutched in a tight claw (Grapple:59 Snatched Kazak out of the air). (25+10+13+9+6+23 = 86) ( Kazak takes 86 damage)

The mark burns as Firn'gaer's fireball is given more power; the power to overcome the dragon's resistance. "An interesting effect . . ." He says at the pain in his hand.
Firn'gaer moves to BF60 and sends an empowered magic missile at the dragon, but once again chance favors the dragon as Firn'gaer misses the spell resistance by one point. <cursed die roller>
Empowered magic missile (just in case): 28 points of damage
[OOC - if the dragon is currently grappling Kazak, then couldn't the grasping hand just join the grapple with a successful touch attack? if that is the case, the grasping hand would be able to get a hold of the dragon without having to get that obscene grapple check. if the dragon is using the -20 grapple to not be grappled while holding Kazak, then the grasping hand still gets him with the grapple check DC38.]

"Damnit Kazak..." Jurgen mutters to himself. "I said don't get yourself killed. Trace and Firn'gaer, keep Ozhone distracted. After we teleport, we're going to scatter so he can't blast us all out at once. We're coming Kazak!" He hands Durgan another Cure Moderate Wounds potion and then uses a Dimension Door to move the party (Durgan, Peerimus, Yorrick) behind the dragon (BQ 93).

added the healing from Jurgen,potion, and Peerimus.
Durgan gives Peerimus a funny look. "Um yes, I am a friend" Durgan shifts a little towards Jurgen so the druid won't hear. "What's with him? He goin' loony like Krilanos?"
"Jurgen, me brother is in trouble. Can ye get me over there to help him?" Durgan fishes another potion out of his Haversack and downs it. "So much fer retreatin'. Me stubborn brother. Oh well, Let's go give the dragon a whuppin' shall we?"
Jurgen [AC: 39, HP 4/141] Thursday September 25th, 2008 10:51:38 PM
Jurgen whispers to Durgan through the Message spell. "Ohzone's magic. There isn't much left in him right now. I feel guilty of making him face the dragon in this state, but we need everyone." The paladin's mind is filled with the cost of this fight: Savin and Shadow were definitely dead, Kazak probably had seconds left, and the battle wasn't over yet either. Throwing Durgan, Yorrick and Peerimus into the fight was an almost reckless maneuver, considering the strength of their opponent.
Was this Domi's intent when he saved the boy from, not just death, but total destruction? Did Domi want the Protector to lead the weak or feeble towards death? There wasn't time to stop and pray, but Jurgen takes the opportunity to touch the symbol of Domi on his right hand. "Peerimus, we're going to get our other short friend. It may be scary, but we need you to ask for Mother and Father to help us."

Trace shoots into the sky to close the distance to Ohzone. His tattoo is itching. (move to BG,66)
Peerimus beams a proud smile at Durgan and heals him again. His tattoo is itching. [CSW 21 to Durgan]
Kazak struggles to break the vise like grip of Ozhone's talons and keeps his defiant spirit. His tattoo turns cold and he knows there is no way to break out of the dragon's grip.
Firn'gaer flies on (move to BF60) and sends an empowered magic missile at the dragon, and once again chance favors the gnome as Firn'gaer's tattoo flares (Firn'gaer 5 damage) and the spell strikes the dragon. (28 damage to Ohzone) The grasping hand continues to try and fail to hold the Huge reptile.
[OOC - reading the grapple rules some more I came up with this... Joining a Grapple If your target is already grappling someone else, you can use an attack to start a grapple, as above, except that the target doesn't get an attack of opportunity against you, and your grab automatically succeeds. You still have to make a successful opposed grapple check to become part of the grapple.
Jurgen hands Durgan another Cure Moderate Wounds potion and then Dim Doors himself, Durgan, Peerimus, and Yorrick behind the dragon (move to BQ 93). He then asks Peerimus to bring some more help from the Father. His tattoo itches.
Durgan fishes another potion out of his Haversack and downs it. Holding Jurgen's potion in one hand, he sees he is on the ground below the dragon, and gets ready to fight some more. His tattoo itches.
........................
The Huge Air Elemental strikes out twice at Ohzone and beats against the great dragon's armor.
[Huge Air Elemental (AC19, HP 115/136, A +19x2, D 2d8+4, dam red 5/-, move 100')] (ooc: removed the dragon's last AOO. Elemental is huge and has same reach as Ohzone.)
Hannan and the dwarves continue to run for the Rose Arch.
.......................
Ohzone seems to have phenomenal senses, as he glances over his shoulder at the arrival of Jurgen and company. "TOO LATE SMALL ONES! THIS IS ANOTHER VICTORY FOR OHZONE!" The dragon, so much larger than Kazak that he can move with impunity (Snatch feat) lines up the dwarf at the Huge Air Elemental and lets go a full breath of lightning! Kazak, within the grasp of the dragon, doesn't even get a chance to dodge, and feels the full brunt of the blast. (Kazak takes 79 damage) The elemental fares better, both by its reflexes (Reflex:31) and that the dragon and it are both in the air and comes out with only a wound (Reflex plus -1 per die = Elemental takes 23 damage). The dragon himself is immune to his own breath.
Laughing mockingly, Ohzone lets Kazak fall from his grip (free action), and flies to the west, gaining more altitude. "PERHAPS I WILL LET THE REST OF YOU LIVE", he calls over his shoulder, "IF YOU LEAVE MY VALLEY NOW! I WILL GIVE YOU ONE HOUR FOR THE COURAGE YOU HAVE SHOWN." (move to CR,84)
Air Elemental gets an AOO, and almost succeeds in penetrating the dragon's armor.
The mutilated and electrified corpse of Kazak falls unceremoniously to the ground.

How does the dragon look? Does it seem like he's got a lot of fight left in him or does he appear on his last legs?
SteveK: Ohzone looks pretty beaten up.
Jurgen [OOC] Friday September 26th, 2008 12:49:06 PM
Well everyone... I guess this is our last chance to escape.
It's up to the group, of course. I know our "mission" (stopping the war) is over, but after he killed Kazak, I'm not entirely tempted to let the dragon live. But maybe that means we retreat and come back to fight when we're better equipped to deal with the threat. Or maybe we leave him be and hope we haven't made yet another enemy who can come back and haunt us later.
I don't think he would make such an offer if he was sure of victory. Maybe he's at the end of his strength and we could finish him off? What does everyone else think?

Trace using an ability he has learned over the years can move and shoot at the same time, he will advance on the dragon and let go four arrows at him. Trace screams at the Ohzone, "Come back worm! Youll die before the day is done!"
Trace fires three arrows at his target, putting all the effort he can muster.

[Moves to BJ66]
Firn'gaer becomes furious as Kazak's charred body falls to the ground below the dragon and lets loose another fireball from his staff. This time the fireball does get by the dragon's resistance. But even more amazing is that the hand finally gets a hold of the dragon.

"No."
The sorcerer moves [BC 93] to bring himself closer to the dragon. Empowered by Firn'gaer's incredible luck, Jurgen casts Magic Missile. He too overcomes Ohzone's resistance and the five tiny darts that spring from his hand fly straight into flying monster [14 damage. I rolled 3 ones for damage. At least I managed to do damage? Stupid dice].

"KAZAK! ME BROTHER! I'm comin to get ye!" Durgan runs over to where Kazak dropped and takes a parting shot at the dragon with his crossbow. "Ye had better run ye yellow bellied cur!" With tears in his eyes, Durgan looks over Kazak's remains. "We may leave if ye wish, but I will be coming back. Got me a dragon ta kill."
Durgan stands over his brother's remains, his crossbow ready should the dragon return. If it seems obvious the dragon is not coming back, Durgan stows his crossbow, picks up Kazak's body(and gear) and begins walking towards the Rose Arch.

Savin tilts his head as if listening to a voice Kazak can't hear and starts to frown..."Ah yes Sir, I understand. I am sorry Kazak. You need to come with me over here. They have this strange box like device here that takes you down. Wayyy down."
Savin breaks out into a grin, punches the dwarf on the arm and says, "Just kidding!"

Trace knows that if he moves forward, he'll only get one shot, so he bends the Whispering Bow and fires four at the departing and laughing dragon. Three fall short, but one strikes true. Then, Trace's tattoo flares up (Trace take 6 damage), and another of his arrows alters course to strike the dragon!. (47 damage to Ohzone)
Firn'gaer lets loose another fireball from his staff, his tattoo flares (Firn'gaer take 5 damage), and Ohzone bears the full brunt of the fireball! And the Fist Grapples the dragon. (36 damage to Ohzone)
Jurgen casts Magic Missile. They strike and Jurgen's tattoo also flares (Jurgen take 5 hit points) and they strike with more power. (Ohzone takes 21 damage)
Durgan stands over his brother's remains, and shoots his crossbow, missing. His tattoo itches.
Peerimus brings Father's Fire, and it explodes about the dragon. His tattoo itches.
The Air Elemental makes no move, for it is obvious that the great dragon is dead. The limp blue form is slowed in falling to the ground by the Grasping Hand. The emanating evil, the prickling along the skin, the vague feeling of fear are all gone. Only thing left of the once majestic and tyrinnical presence is a couple tons of dead meat.
It takes several minutes for the realization to sink in, but when it does...
The Children of Chaos won!!!

---
Jurgen barely winces as the tattoo burns through his skin. He was spent. There were burns over many parts of his body and his vision was hazy, but he wasn't done yet. Jurgen gives himself a quick boost with his Cure Light Wounds wand [6 HP]. Then he casts Dimension Door, moving to Savin's corpse and picking it up. And then he Dimension Doors back to the group with the monk in his arms. For a few seconds, he just stands there not knowing what to do. He glances at Peerimus, expecting leadership from the druid. When he catches himself, he sets the body neatly next to Kazak's and kneels down next to the fallen Children.
"Domi, I ask that you give Savin and Kazak your protection in the Realms of Shadow. Watch over their souls as best as you can until we can ask Gargul to bring them back to us. They had noble deaths, preventing evil from spreading across this continent. Thank you for giving them, and us, the courage necessary to fight when there were no other options." He crosses his hands over each other, letting the burning Chaos tattoo be soothed with the mark of the divine. He is quiet a moment and the sets about the task of healing the survivors.
Jurgen uses his Cure Light Wounds wand again, this time to bring the rest of the group up [17 Charges on Durgan, for a total of 89 HP gained - 5 Charges on Yorrick, for a total 23 hp]. Seeing that Firn'gaer, Peerimus and Trace are fine physically, if not mentally or emotionally, the paladin moves onto himself [Lay on Hands for 14 hp - 18 CLW Charges bringing Jurgen to 128 hp]. The wand gradually becomes more difficult to draw the magic out, until finally it just gives up and is spent. He drops it to the ground, healed, but still exhausted.
"Firn'gaer, can you use your eyes to look for traces of magic? If this was the dragon's valley, he likely had a hoard here. These resurrections aren't going to be cheap... Otherwise, we'll see what we find can salvage from his corpse." Meanwhile, Jurgen walks over to Krilanos. Eventually, he'd be concerned with what the monk carried with him in the way of magic. But for now, the paladin looks for the scroll that he was looking at earlier.

The tattoo flares again and burns more of the gnomes arm, but the pain is ignored as the dragon succumbs to the magic and arrows.
From above, Firn'gaer sees if any of the others are in need of immediate attention. He knows Savin and Kazak are beyond help, but the others seem be cared for.
Concentrating on locating the magical emanations of a dragon hoard, Firn'gaer begins to scan the defiled area of the valley, particularly the desert area. With Arcane Sight, he is able to scan an area of 120-ft radius from Firn'gaer.
Peerimus AC 26 HP 112/112 and Yorrick AC 32 HP 164/166 Sunday September 28th, 2008 11:13:48 AM
The druid's eyes take on a saddened look as the dragon falls from the sky. he does not understand why he is sad, he simply is. The bear nudges himi then, Peerimus smiles and his eyes brighten. The bear always seemed to know what to do. Peerimus watches his friend pop about. Peerimus kneels next to the two friends on the ground. "Wake up, time to go home." he says gently in thier ears as he gives them a gentle touch. Neither stir and Peerimus sits back. No they were not sleeping, they were gone away.
Peerimus stands and looks abou, spying the bad man he walks that direction with urposeful strides. Peerimus scoops up the man and then brings him back and places him next to Savin and Kazak, folding his arms across his chest. He looks up for approval from Jurgen with a proud smile.
