INGRGE
"Warrd's warts!!" Ingrge mutters as the group goes dashing off without any protection. Without waiting or thinking about what might be aheah Ingrge concentrates on moving ahead and casting Spectral hand preparing to get as many protective spells to his crew as best he can.
"Don't Bunch up guys, spread out!"

As you race down the walled path (the wall is roughly eight feet tal and can not bee seen over) to where you here the growling you come across a gory sight.
Lying on the ground are a couple of bodies, both were apparently armed as their swords are next to them. Standing beside them are two of the ugliest beasts you have ever seen. They look like a cross between a dwarf and a wolverine. One is grey-black (WH1), and the other is a reddish brown (WH2) in color . Just past them on the ground, to their rear are two wolverines (Wac1, Wac2). There is blood on all of their faces.
As you all come into view their attention snaps to you nearly instantly.

K'Nara casts Mirror Image on herself, belatedly realizing that she probably should have let Ingrge or Argam get off a protective spell or two before running toward danger, but it's moot now. Three K'Naras spring into being, with a total of four of them running torwards WH2 with flaming swords at the ready... (OOC: rolled 83 to see if she beat her 5% Spell Failure and then rolled for the number of images generated by her spell.)

Quickly reading a scroll Ingrge has his spectral hand reach out and touch Lian on the back as he fineshes his stoneskin scroll. (150 points)

WH2 whips up his bow and sends three arrows streaking toward the K'naras and two arrows actually manage to find her AC 29 & AC 29 for 12 points (if they hit) the third hits one of the images disapating it.
Ingrge casts his spell and Lian feels the recognizable skin of stone skins slide over his body.
Lian Rushes forward and attack WH1 but his attack misses as the beast ducks just out of range.
Gunther charges WH1 as well setting up alongside Lian and delivers a mighty blow to the beast.
Argam comes around the corner and see the creatures and momentarily freeze in their steps trying to decide what they should do.
Delialah lets out a trmendous roar and tears throguh the crown heading toward the wolverines.
*********
The two wolverines leap into the fray attacking Delilah as she charges toward them the first misjudges its attack and misses while the second connects with a viscious claw AC 26 for 6 points
WH1 returns lian's favor attacking him two-handed with a war hammer smashing into his side with a viscious strike AC AC 40 for 19 points damage

Relieved that they have finally located the mysterious creatures, Gunther charges toward the gray black one (WH-1...I was thinking of being about I-6 ish, but mostly I'd like Gunther to be in a flanking position with Lian). He brings his sword down in a savage arc, hoping to strike a decisive blow. (AC 40 for 17 + 5 fire...this doesn't include flanking...sorry, had wrong modifier on attack..should have been +27).

The blade singer activates her Boots of Speed and closes the distance to WH1, whirling her blade as she begins her dance. OOC: I believe that K'Nara can make a single attack this round. If so, she hits AC38 for 19hpd and 6hp magic fire damage.

Gunther smiles as his skin hardens. He turns his attention on the thing in front of him. His blade whirls and slashes at the creature multiple times, but finds the creature harder to hit than he thought.

Checking in, too...
K'nara joins Gunther and Lian in surrounding HW1 and does connect with her attack.
Lian alos connects but only twice doing some damage as well.
Gunther however finds the going a bit tough as he misses with all of his attacks.
Delilah also connects once doing damage to her foe.
HW1 & HW2 AC: 38 W1 & W2 AC: 18 DW AC: ??
HW1 continues trying to hit Lian switching to one handed attacks this time but misses with all three attacks.
H2 sends three more arrows K'nara's way but misses her completely but dismisses the two other images of her.
The two wolverines tag team Delilah and both ferociously attack and this time they connect with three claw attacks and one bite. AC 21,26,26,23 for 19 points of damage.
From apparently no where a lightening bolt streaks acrocc the area and strikes both K'nara and Gunther. 39 points damage reflex DC 19 for 20 points damage
Ingrge
As soon as Ingrge sees the images of K'nara vanish he once again reads a scroll and his spectral hand reaches out and touches his target, setting another stone skin (150) on to K'nara.
K'Nara gets herself into position in order to quickly dispatch WH1 and then move on to her original target (WH2), when the sudden prickle of the hairs on the back of her neck prompt her to fling herself backwards against whatever is edging the pathway, narrowly escaping most of the lightning bolt that zaps the place where she'd stood. (OOC: K'Nara made her Reflex save with 38 for half damage; she is now standing in 3J with her back up against that wall or hedge or whatever that is.)
Blinking away the temporary paralysis at the shock of such a close call, the blade singer looks around her to see if she can Spot who invoked the lightning bolt. (OOC: K'Nara's Spot check is 13; her Spellcraft check is 26.)
If K'Nara is able to Spot and figure out the spellcaster, she will immediately charge at whomever they may be.
If K'Nara is unable to Spot and/or figure out the spellcaster, she will charge at WH2.
K'Nara's charge attack hits AC49 (waHOO! Natural 20!) for 15hpd and 5hp magic fire damage; possible Crit Hit hits AC44 for 20hpd and 4hp magic fire damage.

"Jester's bells!" Argam blurts out as he pulls his leg out of a gopher hole he had stepped into. As the bolt of lightning hits his companions, he looks to see it's source and then see's K'nara charge forward. Clicking his heels together to activate his boots of speed, the pious dwarf calls upon the divine powers gifted to him, "rememdium serius vulnus," and races to Delilah to heal her as she was in more serious trouble. CSW on Delilah: 15hp
10/9 rounds left on Boots of Speed
BTW, I cannot seem to access the combat map.

K'Nara's still charging whomever she is charging...
Argam dashes and heals Delilah 23 points. (I let you get there as there was no action for Argam last round, normal movement would not let you get there this round otherwise.)
K'nara dives backwards having caught a glimpse of the caster before moving and makes her way to melee with the dwarf passing through somesort of magical barrier to do so. (sorry no charge as it is not a straight line from where you dove to.)
Lian continues his assault on WH1 casuing some more damage.
Gunther gets frustrated with his missed attacks and the lightening strike and just stands there frozen.
Ingrge watches the lightening strike and then sees Argam go busting by reads another scroll and reaches out with his spectral hand and graces the fixer with a stoneskin spell (150)
**************
Finding himself assaulted and injured the dwarf suddenly transforms into a slavering dire were wolverine and launches itself at K'nara missing as he tried moving before he was finished morphing. (nat 1)
WH1 switches tactics again and goes two handed with his warhammer but in all the movemnent misses Lian.
WH2 seeing K'nara leaving sets his sights on an elder elf mage and lets fly with three arrows at Ingrge, buts sends all the missiles into the surrouning trees missing all three times.
The wolverines again dive into the attack on Delilah getting strunk by three sets of claws AC 21 29 23 and critical bite 26 (25) for 32 points.

Not sure why Delilah wasn't counterattacking, Argam made a split second decision and used his Quicken metamagic and casted Slay Living swiftly, took a 5' step to N6, and touched Wac1 (Hit AC15, DC20 Fort save or die; saved=3d6+15 dmg). Argam then prayed for Slay Living again and touched Wac2 (Hit AC18, DC20 Fort save or die; saved=3d6+15 dmg).

The warrior deftly dodges the lightening bolt, but is shocked into inaction by the attack (Refl.=20...Ring of Evasion, no dmg).
Growling with anger, the warrior is determined to take down the strange foe in front of him. He rains down blow after blow upon it. (AC39 for 22 +2 fire, AC25, AC34, AC24, AC36 for 17+4 elect. (hits with flanking bonus), AC22, AC21, AC17)
Roaring in pain, Delila strikes out savagely against the wolverines, trying to render their bodies in two. With savage efficiency, the huge lioness smashes the first wolverine with her huge claws (Wac1, AC22 for 11 +4 fire, AC21 for 13 +4 fire). Instinct kicks in and her maw wraps around the second wolverine's neck (Wac2, Bite AC27 for 5 + 2 ice). Grabbing a hold (Improved Grab), the lioness kicks out with her powerful hind limbs, trying to disembowel her foe (Grapple=32, Rake AC22 for 14, AC22 for 14...ummm, those rolls are weird!!).

The nimble blade singer smirks at the dire were-wolverine.
"Let's see if you're trained to dance..." K'Nara murmurs, releasing Lucia as she does so. For a moment, it appears as though the flaming sword hovers in mid-air...then it begins to whirl viciously at the shapechanger who dares attack its mistress, moving as though K'Nara herself were wielding the blade. OOC: the lovely Woldian Blade Singer Feat Bladedance is now at work. Lucia's first attack hits AC43 for 23hpd and 5hp magic fire damage--possible Crit Hit of AC36 with 22hpd and 4hp magic fire damage; Lucia's second attack hits AC34 for 25hpd and 6hp magic fire damage; and Lucia's third attack hits AC27 for 25hpd and 2hp magic fire damage.
K'Nara's teeth flash as she draws a different bastard sword out of its scabbard--this one drawing out from behind her left shoulder.

Argam reaches out and touches something and each of the wolverines falls lifeless to the ground.
Delilah renders any possiblity of remaining life in the wolverines moot as she quite literally tears them to pieces.
Gunther wakes up and realizes that he has just avoided being fried and launches his attacks on WH1 and connects for some solid damage.
Lian also continues his assault on WH1 and when he is done there is a quivering, twitching pile of something on the ground.
K'nara starts her dance and connects twice for damage.
WH2 - AC 34 DT - AC 31
*******************
The dire wolverine in front of K'nara lets out a mighty roar as it leaps to the attack clawing and bitting (oops forgot some attack bonuses) connecting once with AC 33 for 14 points, but missing with the following claw and bite.
WH2 send three more arrows and watchies with disgust as they all miss. Dropping his bow he draws his melee weapon.

Before she could get away, Argam called upon his god's grace to cure critical wounds on Delilah for 32hp
I rerolled 1's as I have in other wold games, if that's not the case here, then I healed for 31hp :)

Giving Lian the thumbs up, Gunther sprints over to the next strange creature (M3), ready to rinse and repeat. Strong arms slam his slender blade home in the back of the furry creature. (AC44/34 for 40+6 fire).
Delila.... In typical feline fashion, the lioness ignores the cleric's healing touch and launches herself at the creature that Gunther is fighting (5 foot to O5). One claw rakes into the thing, but the lioness cannot seem to pentrate the creature's hide with her other attacks. (AC35 for 13+ 2 fire, AC25, AC24). Angry and frightened, the big cat lets out with a mighty bellow.

Lian tries tumbling over to a new combat position but somehow catches a foot on both the citizen bodies lying on the ground. He makes it to his position and attacks, connecting for some damage, but realizes that he left himself a bit open for an Attack of Opportunity.
Gunther too moves in on the new opponent and connects once solidly.
Delilah aslo connects once.

The dire wolverine once again attacks K'nara but misses. There is perhaps a look of fear in its eyes.
WH2 sees bothe Gunter and Lian coming in and gets off an Attack of opportunity on both, missing with both attacks.
The beast this time focuses its attacks on Gunther whipping war axe and war hammer around like they were weightless but only manages to connect once nearly critically AC 38 (not confirmed) for 18 points.

Smiling as the creature heals itself, Gunther decides to see if he can continue to press the thing. He strikes out efficiently with his blade cutting into the creature twice. (AC41 for 17 +1 fire, AC28, AC36/21 for 21 +2 fire, AC23, AC31, AC27, AC19, AC24).
Deliala... The lioness carefully watches her prey, pouncing with skill, but still unable to pentrate its thick fur. Her patience running thin, the big cat's tail smacks the ground in rhythmic time. (AC29, AC31, AC28)

OOC: Checking in
Ingrge's Stoneskin spell absorbs much of the damage that would have been inflicted by the claws of the dire werewolverine. K'Nara arches one eyebrow.
"Why is it that you people always choose to do this the hard way..?" she asks rhetorically, then launches into attacking her foe again in conjunction with her still-dancing sword, Lucia.
OOC: K'Nara's attacks (boosted w/Haste & Whatever Spell Argam Just Cast)-- first attack hits AC33 for 22hpd & 2hp magic fire damage second attack hits AC39 for 20hpd & 5hp fire damage--Crit Hit at AC37 for 18hpd & 2hp fire damage third attack hits AC28 for 21hpd & 3hp fire damage Hasted attack hits AC40 for 21hpd & 3hp fire damage
Lucia's attacks (same effects as K'Nara's)-- first attack hits AC34 for 21hpd & 3hp magic fire damage second attack hits AC27 for 18hpd & 6hp fire damage third attack hits AC22 for 20hpd & 4hp fire damage Hasted attack hits AC47 (woohoo--natural 20!) for 24hpd & 3hp fire damage; the Crit Hit is for AC45 with 24hpd & 5hp fire damage.
I have to admit to not knowing if the rules say if the Crit Hit range is reached on a Crit Hit itself whether the PC rolls for the Crit Hit to have a Crit Hit or not.

DM POST Round 6
Argam gives you each a bating in holy power aiding your last attacks as Gunther, and Lian drop HW2 and K'nara and Lucia down DW.
A quiet falls on the bloody glade as the three lycanthropic enemies lie dead on the grass along with their two previous foes/victims.
Then that silence is broken by the what sounds like soft moans coming from the two previous victims.
K'Nara d20=4 ; Tuesday April 7th, 2009 11:01:32 PM
The blade singer straightens up slowly as she perceives her foe to have fallen to the ground. K'Nara puts out her empty left hand.
"Lucia..." the chestnut-maned warrior calls to the still-dancing blade. For a moment the flaming sword continues to whirl in place, but then the flames licking its edges wink out and the sword slows down, moving towards its mistress. K'Nara snags the pommel of the sword and--after a quick inspection of the blade--flips Lucia into its customary sheath on her back.
"Argam," the leader of the Emerald Dragons bids the Fixer, "Will you kindly see to the survivors of this attack? If you have any way of checking for lycanthropy, it would be a good idea to scan them for it." So saying, K'Nara kneels down and begins to check the body of the dire-werewolverine she'd just slain in battle. She isn't sure what she'll find, but hopefully there will be some kind of clue as to what these three creatures were doing in the middle of Plateau City...and why.
OOC: K'Nara's taking 20 to Search...and it looks like she'll need it, as she rolled a mere 4 on the d20.

The warrior huffs. This hadn't been a fight...heck, K'nara's exercise drills were more strenuous. Linking back up with Delila, the warrior carefully inspects all her wounds and makes sure she is doing ok. Then he heads over to Argam and gives the dwarf a hearty slap on the back. "Tank you for looking out for my kitty! If it vasn't for you, she'd be in pretty bad shape!"
Gunther casts his eyes about the battlefield, looking for anything out of the ordinary (Spot-21). "I vonder vere dese tings came from...and vat dey vant..."
Argam AC34 *STONESKIN 150* 119HP Wednesday April 8th, 2009 12:28:36 PM
Wary of the affliction of lycanthropy, Argam cautiously approached each of the victims and if not assailed, calls upon the divine power of a Heal spell to remove the victims wounds and possible affliction of lycanthropy.
cast Heal on both victims if not attacked.
LianAC 41, hps 134, Stoneskin 150 Wednesday April 8th, 2009 6:50:09 PM
Lian casts Divine Power. (Your base attack bonus becomes equal to your character level (which may give you additional attacks), you gain a +6 enhancement bonus to Strength, and you gain 1 temporary hit point per caster level.)

Argam moves forward to do as asked and stops short as he realizes it isn't moaning he hears but growling as the two former victimes suddenly change form and are almost immediately in full dire were wolverine form and looking for something tasty.

K'Nara d20+9=29 Wednesday April 8th, 2009 11:55:08 PM OOC: K'Nara's Knowledge (arcana) check is 29 (natural 20! woot!)
"What in the six-hundred-sixty-six layers of the Abyss..?" K'Nara yelps, seeing the victims suddenly transform. Would the Emerald Dragons be forced to put down the survivors of the dire-werewolverine's attack..?

Yes! More battle!! Sword in hand, Gunther scoots over to the nearest were wolverine thingy and takes a whack. (AC38 for 22 +3 fire)
Meanwhile, Delila rips across the battlefield and plows into the other wolverine (pounce). Clawing and biting, the lioness is eager to tear the creature into little bits. (AC24 for 13 +1 fire, AC16, AC21).

K'nara realisesthat somethiung very odd just happened as most Lycanthropes don't make their first change, after contracting the disease, until a full moon occurs and the moon is new currently. No to mention that these guys were so newly bitten that it would seem impossible for the change to take place so soon.
Argam jumps clear of the new beasts as they change as was moving forward.
Lian and K'nara worrys and wait to see what happens.
Gunther and delilah attack straight off and while Gunther connects delilah does not.
AC 32
****** Quickly turning on the aggressors the two dire wolverines attack as well.
Both Gunther and Delilah get caught with two claws and a bite Deliliah AC 35, 26, & 27 for 51 points. and Gunther Ac 34, 41, & 34 for 33 points

Thrilled, Gunther launches a full attack on the creature, determined to take it out quickly...and hopefully on his own. After all, a orc has his pride. (AC37 for 22 +5fire, AC37 for 21 + 4fire, AC33 for 16+1 elec, AC33 for 20 +2 elec.) Watching Delila get clobbered, Gunther yells out to Argam. "Please, Argam, help my kitty! She can't take much more!"
Delila... Roaring in pain, the lioness swats at the wolverine in a savage attempt to salvage her pride. She lashes out with her paws, trying to ignore her pain. (AC33 for 10 +6fire, AC32 for 10 + 4fire...forgot to add in Bless)

"Something's wrong!" K'Nara barks. "Weres don't change that fast--not naturally! Just get them!" So saying, the tall redhead attacks Foe B2 (the one attacking Delilah) after tumbling past Foe B1 on the map.

Argam does some healing for Delilah.

Argam couldn't keep this up, eventually he would run out of healing spells and Delilah would die. He could only hope his companions would slay the lycanthropes before it came to that. Once again the cleric called upon the divine to heal the ravaged beast.

K'Nara releases the sword in her hand, loosing it to fight on its own...then she draws her beloved Lucia from its sheath in order to fight with the second blade, crying out in order to ignite the magic fire of the Bright Flame of the Culverwood.

The warrior sighs as his colleges arrive. He was hoping to kill off the critter by himself, but it looked like he would have to share again. He strikes out once more, hoping that with the others help his attacks will put the creature down. (AC34 for 20 +4 fire, AC42 for 21 + 2 elect.)
Delila... Renewed by the cleric's healing, the lioness launches herself once more at the wolverine, finding a tad more luck this time. Her claws rip into the creature's side ripping out hunks of flesh. (AC33 for 12 +5 fire, AC32 for 9 + 3 fire).

Lian misses badly and nearly falls underneath one of the beasts, but manages to keep his feet.
Argam once again heals Delilah and wonders if this keps up how he will help any of the others if they are hurt.
Lucia is let loose again and quickly goes to work connecting twice for damage.
Gunther also connects twice more and the beast is looking a bit worse for wear.
Ingrge rips off a magic missile sending five missiles into Delilah's foe.

The beasts attack this time focusing exclusively on Gunther and connect with three claw attacks once critically AC 37, 43 (37), & 38 for {13, 13 (12), 13} 51 total points of damage.

Gunther grins as both thinga ma whatsa jiggers turn their attention on him. "Dat's right...come to Papa.." His blade whirls once more, knowing that he should be able to take the creatures out now. (AC33 for 29 +5 fire, AC35 for 22 + 3 fire, AC46/37 for 40 + 1 elect., AC37/36 for 44 + 5 elect.).
OOC: If one creature dies, please split the attacks so that the damage goes to the other critter as needed. :)
Delila... Noticing that the creature is going after Gunther, Delila roars loudly and attacks the stronger of the two things. In her haste, she misses with all of her attacks. Her massive tail slaps the ground in frustration as the lioness grows weary of these tough skinned funny smelling animals.

Argam sends some healing Gunther's way
Both Delilah and Gunther have remnants of claw and bite marks showing on their bodies.
Approaching quickly you hear the whistles and tramping feet of the local constables which should soon be on the scene.
Should the party remain and perhaps be late or miss dinner with Sturtevant altogehter or should they quickly gather up some booty and show up to dinner a bit worse for wear?

K'Nara reaches out and grasps the handle of the dancing sword, plucking it from the air and standing with it in her left hand while Lucia continues to flame in her right.
"Lucia." The command word extinguishes the magic fire even as the leader of the Emerald Dragons mulls over her options.
"This whole situation is just plain strange..." she points out the obvious, "...Gunther--does Delilah recognize the scents of any of these...things? Are any of them the same creature that attacked the circus animals?" While awaiting the answer, K'Nara checks her blades to see if they're bloody. She sheathes them simultaneously with a flip of each wrist.
"Let's check these guys out and see if there are any clues as to who or what they are...and why they're here." So saying, she looks over the body of the spell-casting dire werewolverine and takes 20 to Search it, too.

Argam takes some time and casts two more spells on Delilah and Gunther.
Delilah responds through the wreathes that the one that left the hair was the one K'nara killed first.
With Ingrge's aid and quick searches of the the three now dwarven bodies and the two human ones revealed quite a bit of magic.
There is;
a spell book a staff 2 rings an amulet a cloak a headband a dwarven hammer a composite longbow a pair of boots a broach
In addition there is a nice crossbow and two bags of dust like crystals; one red the other clear.
Just as the group finishes their inspections and have put the "loot" to the side a group of 6 city guards come around the corner weapons drawn and at the ready.
" Hey now! Stand down, relaease your weapons and keep your hands where they can be seen." Turning to Ingrge he continues. "And mage, I dont want to see your lips or hands move understood?"

The six wary guardsmen move into the area where you and the five dead bodies are. They have not lowered any weapons of theirs as yet and seem to be fully on guard waiting for an attack from you.
"Ahh so you are the Emerald Dragons. I guess that gives you the right to just kill and rob these five individuals?"
K'Nara Saturday April 18th, 2009 1:17:52 AM
"I'm afraid you have it wrong, sir," K'Nara states, crossing her arms over her chest and arching an eyebrow, "These five individuals are dead because they attacked us. Well...now that isn't quite true, either...we heard screaming and the sounds of battle coming from this place while touring your fine city. When we ran to investigate, we saw two creatures standing over two fallen people. We engaged the creatures only to find out there were three of them rather than the two we first saw. I gave the three a chance to surrender, but they refused and were killed in the subsequent battle. We started to aid the two fallen humans when they suddenly turned into..."

I am not at all sure of what you are saying miss. First you say there were beasts standing over the humans and then you say the humans turned into something and yet all i see here are three dwarves, two humans and someone's two animal companions.
I think that perhaps we should gather upa all the bodies and the belongings and go see the Lord Mayor about all this.
K'Nara Tuesday April 21st, 2009 4:08:34 AM
K'Nara's hazel eyes survey the bodies strewn about...indeed--three dwarves, two humans and a pair of ex-animal companions dot the landscape. She sighs, nodding.
"Sounds like an excellent idea, guardsman," the leader of the Emerald Dragons agrees readily, wondering most heartily if Valdor--during his long and illustrious career with the Platinum Dragons--ever had days like these...

"Something isn't right Knara. We shouldn't go with them. Have they even proven their identity? The obvious lays right before them and they are blind?" Challenges the monk.

"What do you see as obvious elf?"
"We come around the corner where we were told that there was some sort of attack going on and we find you with bloodied weapons standing over five newly dead bodies? And you seem to have just piled what one would assume is the bodies' belongings off to the side like you are about to remove them for yourselves. To me, that sounds like a robbery and murder if you ask me. You have stated who you are and obviously some of my men know of you at least (he says this as he glares at several of his men who have sheathed their weapons), but I am new to the Plateau and to the guard and I do not know you."
"If you were me elf, I expect you would have already asked that you lay down your arms and come peacefully. All I have akksed is that you sheathe your weapons and come with me with the bodies to the Lord Mayor's abode to clear this up. Sound a lot like me that you have something to hide. Eh?"

The warrior is silent up until the guard's last little spiel. Though he sheathes his weapon, he turns to confront the lead guardsman. Standing toe to toe with the fellow, he flexes his massive muscles. "I can understand your confusion, but you vill not be rude to my friends! Ve vill go vith you peaceable, but you vill mind your tongue." Though he is not overtly threatening, the warrior does not back down either.
K'Nara Wednesday April 22nd, 2009 12:27:19 AM
"I've stated what we are going to do and we should just get to doing it," the leader of the Emerald Dragons addresses her party members, "I'm sure if we just go see Sturtavent, we can find out more about what these people really are, besides proving our good intentions to the City Guard here."
LianAC 41, hps 134, Stoneskin 150 Wednesday April 22nd, 2009 1:43:56 PM
"I never said, friend, that we weren't doing what you ask. Clearly MY captain here asked us to go with you and I will go. But you have not identified yourself beyond saying you are new and you suspect us of murder on the grounds that your a guardsman and can glean it on circumstantial evidence. You have not taken our word and expect us to do things willingly?! That is presumptuous of you.
I have made a mistake myself, by saying THEY are blind. Your guardsman, at least the ones who sheathed their weapons, aren't blind and do know us. Weapons loosed here in ANY capacity is a mistake. Yours and ours.
Sir, sheathe your weapon willingly, show some modicum of trust and I will sheathe my weapons." The monk does indeed 'sheathe' his weapons, by putting them in his pockets. He grins that Lian grin and waits.
Ingrge: AC 32, HP: 123/123, SR 18, Arcane Sight, See Invisibility, Spectral hand Wednesday April 22nd, 2009 10:52:48 PM
With a quick look at his men he gives them a nod and all other weapons are sheathed. A second nod sends several to unpack field stretchers in order to aid in carrying the bodies back. In just a few moments everything is ready and he looks over at K'nara.
If you and your crew would help with the two human bodies we will carry the other three. (The belongings have ben packed in amongst the bodies.)
It shouldn't take us more than 10 minutes to reache the mayor's residence.
K'Nara Thursday April 23rd, 2009 2:09:40 AM
"Why not?" K'Nara says, rolling her eyes, "We killed 'em, we may as well carry 'em, too." She goes to the head of one of the late humans.
"I got this end..." the blade singer announces, "...who's taking the feet..?" Her hazel eyes glance at her comrades-in-arms, showing a rather incongruous sparkle of absurd humor in what should really be considered a serious situation.
Argam AC34 *STONESKIN 150* 119HP Thursday April 23rd, 2009 3:14:38 PM
Argam cleared his throat, he was loath to touch the filthy lycanthropes, but wasn't about to let K'nara do the deed by herself. "I'll help," he piped up and then grabbed the feet and lifted.
LianAC 41, hps 134, Stoneskin 150 Thursday April 23rd, 2009 5:19:27 PM
Lian leans over to KNara and says with a smirk in a quiet voice. "You would think they wouldn't want us to contaminate evidence." Sceptically, Lian helps with the corspes, which even now might be regenerating.

With no difficulty, the warrior hefts one of the bodies over his shoulder. He keeps quiet, but has a wary eye on the captain of the guard.

The parade takes off through the streets and alleys though amazingly very few people are encountered along the way. At the approach to Sturdevant's palace the suad leader and the rest of you aren't even questioned or looked at closely as you are let onto the grounds. Spot check DC 16 Highlight to display spoiler: {In fact you are pretty sure that you saw several of the guards begin to salute him until apparently something stopped them from doing so.}
You are led around to the side of the palace to one of the outbuildings where you are shown where and how to place the bodies.
About that time a runner comes into the buliding and cautiously approaches the squad leader, whispering something in his ear and then departs.
So I am to tell you to use the bating facilities here in this building and for you to dress for your audience with Lord Sturdevant in 15 minutes. I will see you later I am sure.

The warrior turns to K'nara and speaks in **very** crude elven (to which Lian is sure to cringe). "That human is even stranger than most of them!" As bathing is mentioned, the warrior pales. "Bath?! But I had von a month ago!" The warrior shakes his head obstinately. "Hunuh, I'm not going to take a bath!" As if to back up his thoughts on the matter, Delila lets out a low growl.
K'Nara d20+1=6 2d8(7+3)+3=13 2d8(6+5)+3=14 2d8(7+4)+3=14 Friday April 24th, 2009 2:48:04 AM OOC: K'Nara's Spot roll sucks with a total of 6.
"Well, Gunther, the only way I can think of for us to actually get cleaned from head to toe in less than fifteen minutes would be for both us to occupy the same bathtub..." K'Nara smiles and her voice drops to a sultry whisper, "...we'd both have to apply the soap to each other...and scrub...and rinse, too."
Whatever Gunther's reaction to the redhead's suggestion may be, K'Nara turns to the others and nods.
"See you all in ten minutes!" The leader of the Emerald Dragons pivots on a heel and quickly strides towards one of the bathing rooms, throwing a smoldering look over her shoulder at the big cat trainer before disappearing through the doorway.
Gunther Highlight to display spoiler: {--assuming that K'Nara's rather blatant tactic works, she'll use her Magic Tattoo to cast Cure Moderate Wounds three times on Gunther while (ahem) washing him, so that the orc-who-isn't will be healed up for 41 hit points. I'm guessing that they'll be a tad late for K'Nara's "ten minute" deadline, too. ;D}
LianAC 41, hps 134, Stoneskin 150 Friday April 24th, 2009 2:26:02 PM
"We really shouldn't clean up. Something might prove we are telling the truth. Cleaning would point towards a guilty conscience."
He looks at Knara. "Besides, Presto spell should be the obvious choice for a quick clean up." The non-arcane caster smiles and sits, to meditate, covered in blood and all.

Cleaned up, or not, the group makes their way to Lord Sturtevant's front door where they are met by several of his personal guards and escorted inside into a nice foyer and waiting area. Within moments Sturdevant himself walks in throiugh one of the doors.
(OOC: Well Jerry was supposed to take over DMing at this point, but I am willing to continue a bit longer, however I need the next poart of the module in order to do so.)

Irresistibly lured by K'nara's offer, the warrior shows up to the meeting a little late and still wet behind the ears...literally. He wears a goofy grin as Sturdevant arrives.

K'Nara stands in a fresh change of clothing, damp around the edges and smiling in a secretive (albeit smug) sort of way.
Argam AC34 *STONESKIN 150* 119HP Saturday April 25th, 2009 2:40:02 PM
Argam does not bother to bathe,he prefers the earthy smell he emanates, besides, he was not injured in the battle and therefore see's no point to it.

Lian doesn't like the idea of changing. Besides, he doesn't have a change of cloths on hand. He stands there is all the nastiness and stains.
LianAC 41, hps 134, Stoneskin 150 Tuesday April 28th, 2009 1:04:28 PM

Scratches himself
Argam AC34 *STONESKIN 150* 119HP Tuesday April 28th, 2009 9:16:58 PM
Tired of waiting around and remembering something, Argam snaps his fingers and leaves to make a quick change. Upon his return, the group see's he wearing a very stylish kilt. "Ah, freedom!"

(OOC: Ok no next part yet so I am going to wing it a bit.)
Accompanying Sturdevant is the self same guard / squad leader and it is obvious he has been bending Sturtevant's ear.
As Lord Sturdevant enters and notices you he cuts the guard off mid sentence.
"Yes, yes, That's nice. That'll be all then."
The guard begins to reply and even gets the word "But..." out of his mouth when Sturdevant glares at him and once again replies. "THAT will be all."
The guard turns and begins to exit when sturdevant stops him. "And bring the belongings of the deceased to this room please. as soon as you can."
Sturdevant aproaches you all a wide smile on his face. " Friends, it is truly good to see you again. Let us have dinner and discuss what you have been doing this day." Please let us retire to the dining room.
K'Nara Tuesday April 28th, 2009 10:54:10 PM
K'Nara smiles and bows to the Lord High Mayor.
