The Hunt


DM James  d20=13 ; d20=8 ;
Thursday July 10th, 2014 12:10:32 AM
Seeing that everyone is ready Edward calls to the dogs and the hunt is on. True to his word, the animals are silent as they continually tug on their master's leash heading down the path. Lord Edward takes the lead with "Lord Kazil" not far behind, and as they pass from the manor down the path the ancient horn sounds twice to signal the Lord's departure so the servants may pray for a safe hunt and a safe return.

It takes less than a minute for the torch lit banquet to fade out of site, leaving those without night vision in relative darkness unless they carry some light source on them. Lord Edward carries one in the hand not holding the leashes as he scans the trail. Movement is slow so that no trail or foot print is over looked, and occasionally he will tug on the hounds leashes to stay them as he peers into the looming darkness of the trees before continuing on. Finally Edward holds up a hand for the group to stop as he kneels down to examine some tacks and points into the woods to your right.

ooc: Up to this point any perception checks of the woods, trail, etc have revealed the occasional small animal, but nothing of note.

As the hunting party starts into the darkness, Brom retrieves a potion from his pack (Darkvision) and drinks down the draught. Slowly the darkness of the night starts to clear and the barbarian now is able to see out beyond the light of the torches.

Brom stops as Edward signal. He looks off in the direction pointed out.

Edson makes his horse stop behind Edward, never wanting to pass him. He looks to the woods were Edward is looking, but also makes sure to scan the other directions and make sure the group isn't being set up. (Perception 36, Nat 20)

Giant bear or bigger, Brom has a weird idea of fun. Though, the minotaur thinks, testing my strength is fun.

As a military trained solider, Barratore freezes as Lord Edward's arm raises. He looks out into the darkness looking for any signs of opponents of any kind.

Anthe slowly moves to the front of the group, he wanted them to see this what he was about to do, mostly because he did not want to become the target of their hunt. He winked at those in front and slowly lowered himself onto his hands and knees. As he did so his body began to change shape. His face elongated, his hand and feet changed into paws with large claws at the end, a tail sprouted from the small of his back. When he was done a large predatory cat stood in his place.

As he finished another, smaller tiger walked out from the brush and nuzzled against him for a moment. Anthe pushed his head into her side in recognition and moved on. The second tiger moved back into the brush (Stealth: 27), staying close to the party and Anthe. Anthe moved up next to Lord Edward and lowered himself closer to the ground, trying to pick up a scent (Scent Ability - Survival: 29). He knew the area well enough, he had been living in these woods for a number of weeks and new what kind of local wild life they were likely to encounter and what to look for (Knowledge Nature: 20).

Gerox mouth drops open when Anthe changes form and he jumps away with the second tiger shows up. He looks at Barratore and says, "This might be a good time for us to revisit the whole you carrying me issue. You know, some place really high!"

Gerox edges away from the tigers hoping they don't mistake him for some kind of dinner or snack/

As Edward examines the tracks you quietly stop and move closer to try and identify the prints and scan the area he is pointing towards. Edson picks up on every detail, the size and shape of the hoof print, the rustle of a branch as a squirrel runs past, but even his impressive tracking skills can't yet spot the allusive quarry.

Anthe slowly moves to the front of the group and allows himself to take on the form of a tiger to the surprise of everyone. After greeting his tiger friend Anthe moves up next to Lord Edward and lowers himself closer to the ground, trying to pick up a scent, and instantly his head turns to look behind him. He just has time to pick up two unusual scents when a pack of wolves charges out of the trees towards you.

The entire hunting group looks on in surprise particularly Edson and Anthe who both are sure there was nothing following you a moment ago. The wolves don't hesitate as the surround you and attack. The snarling is terrible, but they they appear to be regular wolves and only Gerox and Edward (who is still bent over examining the tracks) take any damage.

Gerox = 5dmg
Edward = 2dmg

Surprised that his own senses have failed him, Anthe was caught off gaurd by the initial ambush by the wolves. He managed to side step any attacks that had come his way, but he was not quick enough to stop one wolf from getting to Edward. He regained his composure after a moment and struck out at the nearest wolf to him. He launched at the wolf, trying to wrap his jaws around the creatures throat while swing his massive claws at its sides.

At the same moment Anthe launched his offensive the other tiger, Mahka, springs from the brush, attacking the wolf that had just bit into Edward.

"Hey cat...guy...better keep a tight lease on whiskers there cause I bite back." He says when the tiger appears from the forest.

"Man..." Brom is a little jealous of Barratore because he got attacked by a bunch of wolves and he has nothing to swing at. "Boring...not even a warm-up." The barbarian says disappointed before moving to R8 and kills the wolf at S9-T9.

Gerox winces as the wolf's teeth tear into his flesh. "Where did they come from?" he asks to know one in particular. He takes a 5' step back to S4 and raises his hands launching a group of missiles into Wolf 1 causing it 13 points of damage.

"Wolves wouldn't just attack us like this. Something isn't right here. I wonder if they were summoned somehow?"

As the wolves appear out of nowhere Peza reacts instinctively both in attacking and warning the group and watches as Barratore decimates those closest her and Brom steps up to join in the excitement.

Edson and Anthe are surprised that their own senses had failed them Edson quickly knocks some arrows as the druid regains his composure and launches at the wolf, wrapping his jaws around the creatures throat while Mahka springs from the brush attacking the wolf that had just bit into Edward. Edward is stunned and drops the leashes as he grabs his side. Defend he yells to his hounds as he points to the wolves.

Brom is just commenting on how easy the fight is when Edward's hound bites him in the leg. STOP THAT. ATTACK THE WOLVES!!! THERE!!! he shouts as he points at the large pack, but the hounds have a mind of their own and focus in on the group.

Gerox winces as the wolf's teeth tear into his flesh. And asks "Where did they come from?" and wonders if they were summoned somehow as he casts magical missals into the closest ones hide. As if to answer his question almost a dozen more wolves charge out of the woods and surround the group. What in the Wold is happening? Edward shouts as the group is attacked. Brom can feel himself flanked on all sides, but manages to fend off the attacks. Beside him he watches as Mahka, Edson and Gerox are herded together and bitten.

Brom = 7 dmg
Mahka = 5 dmg

Anthe roars as the wolf in front of him drops from his mouth, lifeless. He steps to get himself closer to his companion just as even more wolves seemingly appear out of nowhere. How had his senses not alerted him to any of these creatures? Once again he attacked a wolf, attempting to rip its throat out, ending yet another life.

Mahka cried out in pain as the wolf behind her bit into her flank. She kicked at it with her hind leg, throwing it off of her and, following her masters lead, launched herself at another wolf.

Gerox doesn't like having this many wolves snapping at him, nipping him, tearing into his flesh. Everywhere he looks he sees snarling teeth and evil shining eyes. All looking at him like he is a snack! He doesn't want to be eaten by wolves. He also knows that if he tries a spell casting, the wolves will tear into him. He doesn't have any room for movement and he has to break out of the circle.

He sighs and decides to drop a fireball sort of on himself but centered on Q3 hoping to take some wolves down with him. Unfortunately his plan backfires and when he tries to dodge his own fireball, he bumps into Barratore and he take the full brunt of the spell. Luckily his fire resistance absorbs 10 points of it.

I believe I will hit 4 wolves and myself only.

Fireball 18 reflex save or 11 points of damage for half.

A adrenaline charged smile crosses Brom's lips. "Better." He says as more wolves attack. "Time ta play." Brom quickly puts down one of he wolves. As the mutt falls he can see Anthe roars as both the tigers making short work of one of the pack animals attacking them.

To the south Edson's blade flashes as twice it bites into the wolf in front of him with devastating accuracy as he is able to rely on his rogue knowledge and cut for vital spots and quickly bleeds out the beast before him.
(Edson was not flanking as he and Peza are not on opposite corners, so I moved Edson 5ft diagonal to flank)

Suddenly a brilliant flash lights up the forest as Gerox risks all to send forth an enormous fireball. A half dozen wolves had snapped and bit at him as his hands weave the spell, but his mind was focused and he could not be deterred. He barely even felt the pain (because the wolves rolled 1s and 2s on dmg).
(Gerox triggers 6 AoO and takes 7 dmg)
(Spells with a 20ft radius are centered on an intersection not a single square. I placed the fire ball as best I could per your description. Killed 2 wolves and injured 4 wolves.)

Seeing the sorcerer being surrounded Barratore plants his blade in ones neck as it approaches, and as the fireball erupts he slays two more.

Smoothly loading her crossbow Peza also kills wolf, but as her senses soak in the sights and sounds of battle her instincts tell her someone is somebody must be directing these wolves, and as she looks around she sees two men come out of the woods and approach. Anthe can smell them clearly now, as if their smell had been all but undetectable until recently.

As the men get closer to your torches you can see their faces more clearly, their pointed teeth glistening in the moon light. You recognize them as the men that came out during dinner to have Edward sign paperwork, though their appearance had not been so terrible at the time.
You look surprised to see us Edwaard. says the first man.
Did you like the tracks we left for you? asks the second.

Instantly they charge forward. Barratore swings at the closest man as he approaches, but his blade misses the agile vampire. (Makah still gets an AoO)

he only surprise is that you took so long. says Edward. Could you have been much more obvious with those spells?

Then all three men join in the attack along with the hounds and wolves. Gerox feels feels another wolf sink its teeth deep into his flesh (5dmg) and Anthe feels the shooting pain of a hounds claws tearing his hide (9 dmg). Barratore feel the heat of steel as Carlos long sword cuts deep into his side. Brom is able to dodge Edward's attacks, but a second later Vincent sends forth a scorching ray that he cannot escape.

The ray of fire strikes Brom and he grimaces from the pain. Rage takes over. "Brom will destroy you! Destroy you ALL!" In his rage he focuses his skill on defense and offense (using move action to activate Guarded Stance +2 dodge to melee attacks). Brom takes a great swing into Edward. "Death has come for ya, Lord.

"Quick let put this on your blade ... its silversheen .... Vampires bane " barks out the raven haired girl as she readies to apply the magical ointment to the mighty minotaurs blade ... when presented , coating the weapon

Edson's first attack cuts into the wolf(2 dmg+4 Bleed) but he is well aware he needs a better chance to damage. His khukri finds its home in his sheath while his other hand deftly pulls out his longsword.

Mahka sees an opening in the first mans defesnes as he runs by and lashes out with a claw, trying to rip the flesh and tendons in his legs. (Attack: 17/Damage: 15)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Anthe is reeling from the pain, but, still sensing the presence of the wolves around him, he regains his composure. Turning about he lashes out at the wolf beside him, ripping the creatures throat raking his claws through the shoulder muscles.

Mahka, likewise, turns around and attacks the wolf behind her. She wraps her powerful jaw around the wolfs throat, swinging her claws at its face and side. The fist claw attack catches her prey in the eyes, causing a grievous wound that would have been enough to finish it off by itself.

Barratore grunts slightly as the vampire called Carlos penetrates his defenses. The wound was minor, but he knew well that many minor wounds are just as bad as a major one. The wolves were completely forgotten and after Peza applies the silver sheen he strikes back. Barratore brings his shield in close and thrusts straight forward and down towards the center of his target

"Vampires !! " Peza shouts as she faces Lord Tremblay. Her mind races with tactics and she quickly applies silversheen to Barratore's blade. "Vampires bane " barks out the raven haired girl as it gleams in the torch light. Once it is applied he strikes back, bringing his shield in close and thrusting straight forward, but the vampire is too quick and evades the blow.

"Death has come for ya, Lord. I am DEATH!" Brom yells in rage while swinging his sword, but he too is unable to connect with the undead Lord. As the blades miss Gerox eyes glitter as he steps forward taunting, "You like fire? I like fire too. Taste mine!" The smell of charred flesh fills the air as the vampire's skin burns and cracks, but it is not enough to stop his cold blooded counterpart.

Close by Edson's continues to attack the wolves as he deftly pulls out his longsword.

Mahka misses the vampire's leg as he charges by, but the wolf easily puts a swift end to the wolf attacking it. Anthe tries to do the same to one of Edward's hounds, but the beast proves much more formidable. Only two of his attacks hit and and he despite the force behind them and the fact that it would have easily ended the life of one of the wolves, it is just barely enough to drop the hound. Suddenly the slain dog transforms before his eyes, taking on the form of a man...or what once was a man.

As the transformation takes place chaos ensues as the remaining wolves attack with fury, though this none of them are able to break through your defenses. The remaining hounds are more successful, their powerful jaws biting Brom (11 dmg) and Edson (8 dmg) and then lashing out with their claws striking Anthe (13 dmg), Brom (6 dmg) and Edson (6 dmg)

Before anyone can react Vincent sends forth two scorching rays striking both Brom (15) and Barratore (18). As the fire singes his bur Barratore just has time to deflect Carlos blades with blinding fast reflexes. Although one strike finds its mark, piercing Barratore's armor, he manages to deflect the other three. Behind him Brom tries to fend off Edwards razor sharp claws, but one swipe cuts deep across his cheek (7 dmg).

Tonight YOU DIE!!! Edward shouts back.

Brom again takes another flame lance in the back and more cuts from the wolves and Edward. The physical attacks were not his problem it was the magic, but there was nothing to be done about it. "Get the spellcaster!" Yells Brom back to anyone able to harry the nuisance. He continues to attack Edward. One swing missing, but his second connects.

The speed and skill of the vampire Carlos was amazing. Speed and skill that Barratore knew far outmatched his own. He was slowing, the magic from Edward and the cuts from Carlos were adding up fast. His opponent was unharmed and as his own blade misses again, Barratore knows there is nothing he can do about it. Carlos would slip up, and Barratore would cut him down when he did.

Mahka roars her triumph as the wolf easily falls before her and immediately searches for her next victim. Seeing Anthe in trouble she springs into action. Using the trees and brush as cover she circles around another wolf (or it that one a hound?) and unleashes yet another flurry. She bites into the base of the animals spine and rips into its flank, the angle of the attack was awkward so one claw has trouble finding its mark and brushes off the creatures side harmlessly.

Anthe, sensing that he no long in immediate danger surveys the scene. There are still quite a few more wolves left, but a new danger has arrived. Vampires he heard someone yell. Turns out his benefactor had other plans with them. This is something that he really should have sensed. Staying low to the ground he stalks towards the big Minotaur who was surrounded. Once in position he pounced! Launching himself at the vampire trying to slay his new compatriot. A furious ball of fur, teeth and claws comes flying out of the brush at the vampire, doing everything it can to do as much damage as it can.

"Get the spellcaster!" Brom yells as he continues to attack Edward, this time his blade managing to taste the cold blood flowing through the vampire's veins. Peza quickly switches back to her crossbow and snaps a bolt into place, her icy gaze locking onto Vincent. The bolt flies true and buries itself deep into his chest

Barratore admires the speed and skill of the vampire Carlos, speed and skill that Barratore felt far outmatched his own and as such decides it better to fight defensively until the League Adventurer's can regroup. Moments later Anthe, pounces on the vampire, launching himself forward, a furious ball of fur, teeth and claws. When all is said and done he is able to land two solid attacks on the undead abomination.

Close by Mahka roars her triumph as the tiger circles around another hound and unleashes yet another flurry. She bites into the base of the animals spine and rips into its flank, but somehow it still manages to stand and fight, if just barely.
(Do you have a special ability that allows you to move and still make a full attack? Normally moving and charging only allow for a single attack that turn.)

Gerox is torn on what way to go. His friends were in trouble but he decides to try and take out the spellcaster. He raises his hands and launches another empowered scorching ray at the wizard vampire trying to bring him down.
Only 1 ray hit. The way I understand scorching ray is that it does 4d6 points of fire damage, and that you need to roll to determine the damage. I rolled a 20 for your damage. The empowered feat increases this by 50% to 30 dmg. Am I interpreting this correct?

Edson then slashes out twice his longsword, but none connect. The elf was off due to switching weapons, and he is surprised when he sees his blade buried deep in the wolves hide, slaying the wolf.
(You were fighting a regular wolf, AC 14, your first attack hit. I rolled 7dmg on 1d8. That was enough to kill it.)

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

Once again Vincent begin weaving his hands to send forth another deadly spell, BLAST he screams in pain as Peza's bolt penetrates his side and Gerox sends forth a schorching ray, causing the spell to fizzle.

All around you the wolves flank and snap, but in the end they cause little more than a distraction. It is the hounds that cause a problem. The seem driven as if compelled by a higher power. Mahka feels the large teeth and sharp claws of one tear into her (19dmg) while another's claws but into Brom's arm (8dmg)

Edward grins as his claws lash out at the Barbarian (7 dmg). Fool! Look at your wounds. You are already dead, your body just hasn't realized it yet!

Carlos then swings his long swords at Barratore. Once again they bounce harmlessly off his armor, but the fore of the attack leaves little doubt that anyone with less protection or thinner skin would not have survived such an attack.

Having landed two good hits on the undead creature, Anthe redoubles his efforts. Feeling the effects of the spell wash over him he is able to sneak in another bite on the vampire. Mahka, not happy that the wolf in front of her is still standing bites down again on the creatures hind quarters. Also feeling the effects of the spell she is able to pull back and bite again quickly.

Seeing his comrades begin to bleed out and tiring from the exertion of such a tough battle Gerox calls forth a spell of Haste to energize and strengthen his companions. Immediately he can see the difference as those fighters slowing and letting the tips of their blades drop find a renewed vigor and renew the fight in earnest.

Brom can feel the flow of his crimson life force draining from his body, another strong attack could be the end of him, but in his raging and newly enhanced state he continues his attack on Edward. With tremendous effort his blade slashes the mans once hansom face before piercing his heart. With one final effort he tries to take out the hound next to him as well, but the ferocious dog is too quick and avoids the blade.

A second later Peza feels the fiery gnome's magic washes over her and she fires a fusillade of bolts at Edward the deceiver, a grin of satisfaction creases her face as they all find a home in the vampires torso and the pale man falls unmoving at Brom's feet. "Speaking of dead bodies .... your mind will soon join your body in death .... your time has come .... Rum will be Free of Edward the deceiver and his ilk " Peza taunts the corpse.

Anthe Wardon, having landed two good hits on the undead creature redoubles his efforts, but this time the vampire is ready and easily dodges his attacks. Mahka, not happy that the hound in front of her is still standing flashes her teeth as she goes for her prey's hindquarters. As the animal bends its legs protect its haunches Mahka moves in for the jugular. As she pulls thrashes her head the hound turns into silver haired man and drops to the ground, his adventures in this realm finished as he moves on to those in the Shadow Realm.

Barratore feels the haste spell flow into him and switches to a more offensive approach. Just trying to score hits, and not so much of driving power with each hit.

The battle is intense as the League Adventurer's muscle bleeds out, but the re-death of Edward puts things back on an even playing field. Barratore manages to fight off the wolves attacks, but Brom succumbs to the hound attacks (6 dmg), just barely managing to cling to consciousness.

Despite his many injuries Carlos continues to attacks Barratore (26 dmg), his blades finding the weaknesses in the taurs armour.

Edward dies, or dissipates, and is gone. "RRRrrroooaaarrrrrr....." Brom let's out a bellowing roar as Edward falls. His eyes immediately turn to Carlos. The intimidating eyes of the vampires were nothing compared to will to kill in Brom's.

Barratore stumbles, his legs loosing their strength and feeling. His blood coats the outside of his armor, flowing from the multiple wounds. Barratore's vision has narrowed to a near tunnel like view of the world and his opponent is the only thing within that world. A thrust, a broad stroke and a second thrust is aimed toward that opponent.

A pair of the blows land, Barratore barely registers it

Gerox moves back to S2 and raises his hands yet again targeting the vampire on Barratore, "Leave my ride alone!" Gerox thunders in a strangely deep voice coming from such a small body. He shoots both empowered bolts at (I think) Carlos hitting ac 25 and 15. Both do 18 points of damage each or 36 points if both strike.

Gerox calls out, "Who has some healing? We need to help our wounded before they fall! We also need to stake the dead vampires and cut off their heads!"

As Vincent vanishes you turn your attention and your fury on Carlos. Brom let's out a bellowing roar, his eyes turning to the remaining vampire as he moves in to put an end to his miserable unlife. In a wave of utter destruction his sword connects with the former man's torso as Barratore aims killing shot at his neck while both Peza and Gerox send a variety of mundane and magical missiles to his chest and Asthe rends the mans limbs from his body. The form that collapses unmoving on the ground is almost unrecognizable as humanoid by the time the attack is over, the crimson pulp unidentifiable.

Barratore and Edson quickly finish off the wolves and Mahka takes out the remaining lycanthrope hound, its now humanoid corpse leaving little doubt as to the origin of the unusually large wolves being spawned in the area. The area is quiet, and with Vincent apparently having fled the rest of the forest is silent and unmoving, as if afraid of disturbing the Iron adventurers.

Looking about the battle site, some of your armor showing more blood than metal, Gerox raises the question of what to do with the corpses, suggesting they be staked with their heads cut off in addition to seeking healing for the injured.

Gerox will move to the woods and quickly pick up sticks. Pulling a dagger he quickly sharpens two to points and hands one each to both Brom and Barratore. "Stake them through the heart and then cut off their heads. These things regenerate and I am not interested in fighting them again. Don't dawdle! Get it done!"

OOC, Point of clarification. Was our host one of the attackers? If not, what did he do during the fight?"

Gerox will rifle the pockets of the vampires and cast a detect magic on them scanning the bodies for magic. He will also check out the werewolf.

DM James Edward was an attacker, but he did not attack until AFTER the other vampires revealed themselves.

"Everyone who counts Brom"

Barratore plants his blade in the ground and pulls a potion from his pack. Whatever the gnome was chattering about could wait. Spitting a mouthful of his own blood onto the corpse that was the vampire Carlos, he lifts the vial in a mock toast towards Brom and drains it. His condition does not seem to have improved much.

Barratore then focuses in on Gerox and after asking him to repeat whatever it was that he was saying, Barratore will follow up. Carlos' and Edwards heads are removed and whatever it is they can use to pass for a stake, gets driven into the ground through their chest.

"Little surprised we are not setting them on fire as well Gerox." The immediate rush of the combat is beginning to fade and Barratore looks about the deep night. "Back to the mansion and we take it apart.?"

Barratore spits another mouthful of blood to the side.

"If you want to burn them, feel free. Why do you think I would want to set them on fire? Of course it might purge the evil and it is so pretty but besides that...

And why didn't they try ta take over our minds like the last one did?" He says with a confused look. "Anyone know anything about vamps? It seems a little strange."

Gerox points out the magical items and starts stripping them off the dead as he asks the others stake and cut off heads...which no one else feels the need to do (i.e. no one has posted that they do this). Perhaps something about the act makes them feel uncomfortable.

"Are you sure these guys were vampires? Didn't the pirate vampire turn to gas when we took him down? Broms says as the first of the vampires is staked. Although it is fairly obvious to most that the hunting party contained three vampires Peza notes that like humans different vampires are likely to have different tactics.

Knowledge spellcraft or arcana 15 to display Highlight to display spoiler: {Not all vampires utilize gasous form to retreat back to their coffins at 0 hit points (which is what I assume happened in your past encounter). After thinking about it you realize that these vampires used gassous form previosuly. Edward used it for his entrance in a staged event calculated to convince you that he couldn't possibly be a vampire, since he appeared while the sun was still in the sky. Shortly before sundown, Edward left the house in gaseous form, floated secretly down from the mansion, then assumed human form and walked toward the party grounds. He timed his entrance so that his Endure Sunlight feat could keep him comfortable for the 10 seconds or so he would have to spend in the sunlight. The other vamps trailed you on the hunt in gassous form so that they were all but undetectable until they resumed physical form and summoned wolves to attack you. You also reason that the werewolves had to have been dominated by the vampires and we under their control, perhaps there is a limit to how many people can be dominated at once...}

After gathering the bodies, Peza helps with the collecting of valuables and suggests you head to the mansion, sure there is more stuff there. with all his victims I'm sure he collected stuff from them ... we search the place ... , Edson can take the lead there, and we all pitch in ... might even have to kick in a few doors " sh says as she eyes Brom .. " you up for that ? what wories me is this lycanthrope scourge ... we need to inform Captain Ceri about that .. " Once the vamps and wolves are staked and burned .... Peza will lead them to the mansion ......

Barratore shrugs at Brom and raises his hands. He knew just as much about vampires as the barbarian. That was all about the pirate king. Barratore produces four more potions from his pack. If Brom needs, he can have two.
Barratore drinks a pair of them. (CLW, CMW 3, 13)
If Brom declines, Barratore drinks the second pair (CLW, CMW 8, 9) I'll add this to my header if Brom declines

After some thought, Gerox uses his knowledge of arcana (rolled a 10 on spellcraft but a 21 on arcana) to tell the others how he thinks the vampires attacked them. ( See DM post above)

As the others quaff potions, which Gerox looks on enviously upon, Gerox will make sure that the two vampires are both beheaded and staked. "I think we need to bury the bodies as well. Nice and deep! I don't want vengeful vampires knocking on my door someday but that can wait for now. If we are going back to the mansion, we need to move. I don't like the thought of Edward either taking all the good loot and fleeing or worse, setting up defenses and traps for us to stumble on into."

As the others prepare, Gerox will add, "We need to recruit a cleric. If we are going to keep fighting all of these undead, that would be helpful."

"You drink'em." He says to Barratore as he offers the potions. "Thanks. I have more."

"I guess. I don't know anything." He says to Peza. Since no one has anything more to add to the discussion regarding the vampires, Brom does as Gerox suggests. He takes each head and tosses it into the forest away from the bodies. He then fashions long stakes from the saplings around the area and drives them into the group through the hearts of the vampires. Each of the stakes are driven several feet into the ground and protrude upwards several feet as well. "Ain't nothin' gettin' off those."

Gerox stands back and watches as the others quaff potions and supervises the beheading and staking of the vampires. "I think we need to bury the bodies as well. Nice and deep! I don't want vengeful vampires knocking on my door someday. He then expresses his concern that the fleeing vampirer sorcerer might arrive at the mansion ahead of you and take anything of value.

Brom and Barratore finish sharing some potions before going into the forest with Edson, the former Lord Kazil, and fashioning long stakes from the saplings around the area and drives them into the group through the hearts of the vampires. Each of the stakes are driven several feet into the ground and protrude upwards several feet as well. There is no way this undead will rise again, and soon the rising sun will destroy the remains.

Peza then turns to their newest ally ... " you did well back there ... for a few minutes i thought you might have been with Edward ... but guess you were duped by him ... glad to have you join us ...

Everyone stops in their tracks and stares as the small gnome tells them to stay where they are before sending forth fire that rends the sky....

The crowd erupts in to applause before the gnome can continue and watch the show. Cameron walks forward, hand extended. Thank you! We have been the unwilling servants of Edward for many years, kept under his control by his threats and ability to to dominate a man's will. I will not tell you how he has used it to punish of for the most minor of infractions...and for those that the really get on his bad side...The last time a woman tried to escape he tracked her husband down and turned him into one of his hunting dogs, forever to be dominated and under his control. The despair in his eyes is undeniable. Anyway, we could hear the fighting and the sound of the wolves from here. Then suddenly Carora quit walking on all fours and we knew his power had ceased.

As you look out at the former "servants" we note that they are eager to leave and are taking anything of value which is not nailed down.

Barratore moves in on the now 'freed' people. They seemed up front enough to him, but with Peza inside doing whatever it was she was doing, he thought is a good idea to keep an eye on the group as a whole. "Everyone stay right here with me. Don't do anything stupid." He hangs out.

Seeing his fearsome display of pyrotechnics being viewed as making a dramatic entrance rather than intimidating, Gerox goes with the flow and bows to them smiling. "We were glad to be of service freeing you from your bondage, slavery and the occasional being made into a meal. Don't you think that we deserve the first pick of the loot for that service? Also you need to be warned that one of the vampires did escape. The one who cast spells is still lurking about somewhere. If you could direct us to his coffin, it might be helpful so we can put him down as well.

One of the servants merely shrug. We have been captive and worked hard for years, don't you think we deserve to be paid so we can restart our lives? At the mention of one of the vampires escaping several of the servants begin leaving again, determined to flee before it returns. At mention of the coffins Cameron nods and responds. We only recently moved in, much of the Lord's stuff has yet to be shipped from New Elenna. Only the first floor is furnished, and perhaps the basement. There is a door leading down from the study, but none of us are allowed down there, not even to clean. As for his study, we are only allowed in there when he is present. Some of the cooks say the room has been cursed, but Edwards ability to dominate a person's will is enough to keep anyone from entering. You'll probably find it undisturbed. Most of us just want to get out of here and escape this place, perhaps return to our homes across the sea or start a new life here. No sense on tempting fate.

Barratore folds his arms across his chest, disappointed that the vampire had gotten away while Peza, somewhat relieved that the servants are free from the vampires influence is still unsure about Vincent and heads directly towards Edwards office. As she moves out Anthe and Mahka both move from the tree line, Anthe taking his human shape.

It does not take long for you to find Edward's office, and as Cameron predicted, the threat of a curse combined with the fear that the vampires might not truly be gone has been enough to keep the servants from entering. The room is simply furnished with a nicely carved oak desk covered in papers and a chair on either side of it and a fine couch in the corner of the room. On the back wall you spot a heavy wooden door with steel hinges and a strong lock.

Peza immediately moves to the desk and starts looking through the papers. Several of them are related to the sale of various businesses in Rum, sale papers that have been signed, but not yet submitted and therefore not yet official and incomplete. Beneath that is a piece of parchment sealed with red wax.


As you are aware, we have suffered several setbacks recently and have a few problems that need to be dealt with. The men we hired were unable to prevent the minotaur captain from reaching the island, forcing us to change our plans. The cow is no longer a hindrance and is to be left alone, but make sure her "League Adventurers" will not interfere in our plans again.

We also need you to locate a man named Jacaret and make sure he does not reveal his plans. He is a tall fixer identifiable by his silver cloak containing the symbol of Alemi, three overlapping silver circles contained withing a third circle.

Understanding a threat is still possible from the vampire on the loose Peza is glad that Edson has taken it upon himself to search the door. As he feels around the sturdy frame she thinks out loud, .... Hey guys we might need backup in here ... a possible hiding spot for the surviving Vampire ... " . The thought cannot be dismissed, especially since at that moment Edson feels one of his small tools pulling towards the door in response to a weak magnetic field...a trap. Gerox then scans the area and finds a magical aura about the door frame.

The metallic click of metal on metal echoes through the air and everyone freezes, waiting to see what happens. The door swings open revealing a dark staircase leading down.

Seeing the path alight she glances at the Barbarian " want to lead us down ?? " Peza says as she grins at the mighty Brom.

Edson follows behind saying " These are the times when you all look at me and realize how much you need me around" Barratore snorts in response, "You have your moments."

You take little caution as you descend the dank stone stairs, moving forward until they suddenly level off. As you reach the bottom Brom's ever scanning eyes detect the circular brick curb of what is evidently a great well in the earthen floor. As he walks nearer, his eyes enchanted with dark vision, he can see that it must be five feet across, with walls a good foot thick and some six inches above the ground level--solid work from some long forgotten age. Inside it hang three long chains supporting an empty cage, a terrible dark prison for any who might cross Edward.

On the far side of the room are three oak coffins, two of which are open and lined with an inch of dirt in the bottom, the third sealed with its lid down.

He will move one of his dancing lights directly over it but keep the others spread out lighting the whole room.

"I wouldn't want to be caught in that cage. Doesn't look very inviting. I think we should open the third coffin up and find out if our friend is in it. Somehow I have my doubts. Seems to obvious but you never know."

It is well known that vampires will often flee to their coffins when wounded regenerate and avoid the damaging and draining effects of the sun light, which would be well risen before the vampire could reach Rum, still the sight catches many off guard. Concerned, Gerox scans it for magical traps, but detects the lingering aura of an invisibility spell inside.

Barratore stands over the wooden box and cautiously 'opens it' by sending his blade through the lid and rending it in two. As the top splits Peza raises her crossbow and lets the line snap, sending a bolt where she believes the invisible undead sorcerer to be and Anthe stands guard in case the monster escapes.

Slowly dark and half congealed blood stains the satin fabric lining coffin. A second later the body materializes into view lasting only moments before crumbling to dust.

Barratore is raising his blade again as the vampire appears, but he quickly sees that there is no need for another strike. With the tip of the blade, he pushes some of the dust about to spread it out. Was anything hidden within? Perhaps. The creature was destroyed and now it was again time for Edson and Gerox to do their thing. Check for secret compartments and magic.

Barratore looks back to Peza and Brom. "Next time, I'll just open it normal like and you can stick your hand or face in the coffin. Might be more exciting that way." He chuckles.

As the corpse turns to ash you find it hard to believe the ordeal is over. Despite the fact that sorcerer had been clinging to the last remnants of its unlife some are surprised to have ended things so quickly, although Edson had no doubt that this would be the inevitable end of one who crosses the league adventurers.

Seeing the battle over Gerox begins searching the coffin for any precious belonging that the vampire might no longer have use for. Peeling back the satin from the wood frame the sorcerer finds an adorned silver cloak with a fading aura. Although it appears normal now, you are fairly certain this had been a legacy item of some power that before its owner lost need of it. Beneath it lays a silver ring inlaid with a red sunstone.

Peza looks at the dust in the coffin for a moment before accepting the fact that the last of the vampires is really dead. As the help flees the mansion that has been their prison since arriving on the island young girl takes the opposite approach and raids what remains of the kitchen with Brom figuring that it would be safer to spend the night here than travel through the woods at night and risk another wolf attack.

Although the forcibly indentured servants have fled with almost everything of value, you are still able to find two bottles of 12 year old scotch hidden behind some books. The mansion is nearly empty of people at this point, and those few that remain only do so because they are debating on setting the house on fire before they leave to put an end to their nightmares once and for all. Although they dislike the idea of anyone spending the night upon hearing your plans they agree not to burn the building down and leave into the darkness towards Rum. Searching the kitchen you find a large loaf of bread and some cheese in the back of a cupboard, not quite the feast you had earlier, but enough to keep you satisfied.

After building a fire in the fireplace you relax and explore the rest of the mansion at your leisure. Edson finds a few interesting decorations that were left behind for various reasons. A painting of a full moon rising over a shadowy moor, a dark tapestry depicting the New Ellena at night, and strange poem presumably written by the departed.


I lived a life of theft and lies
Was a man of great despise
I paid the debt such men must pay
My death to be a great display
Imagine then their great surprise
When in the darkness I did rise


The night passes uneventfully and you awake with the rising sun, unsure where to start when you tell the tale of what happened to Ceri or how she will react to the news you give her.

Ooc: I have to admit, I was caught off guard with the last vampire. The description I had said they would return to their coffin to regenerate if they escaped, and since I didn't make a contingency plan ahead of time I didn't think it fair to devise one for the vampire after the fact.

Gerox rises at dawn stiff and sore from a bad nights sleep. "Why did we spend the night in a vampire's house? We need to get back and report and see what kind of loot we got."

Gerox looks around and wonders, "You know, this could be a decent base for us. Give us a place to kick up our heels. I bet if we let it known that vampires lived here, we could get it cheap. Might want to get a cleric or 3 to give it a blessing but its worth considering."

Edson pours everyone some of the scotch and divies up the bread and cheese. He waits the night in the house, keeping his watch when needed.

Barratore exits with Brom for the larder and pantry. Upon finding mostly bare cupboards the nagging thought that eluded hiim earlier about letting the servants take everything surfaces again. "This is why you don't let everyone help themselves!" he thunders as his kicks in an empty cupboard door in frustration. Brom had put in his mind they would be feasting and well now they are not. The powerful minotaur copes with disappointment by physically destroying several kitchen cabinets.

Barratore discovers that this stuff called scotch is horrid. There would be lager and ale later then, back in Rum. When the topic of burning the house down, Barratore growls deeply at the suggestion. Especially as he is going to be in the building that night.

Upon hearing the poem, Barratore grumbles, "And there's another." The Minotaur claims the couch and stretches out upon it after sliding it towards the fireplace. "We're sleeping here, cause Brom and I aren't trudging back through the woods til morning Gerox." As he closes his eyes he waves a hand, "Wake me for my watch Brom"

Morning light splashes across Barratore's face and he rises. Fishing out some rations and washing it down with water he looks to Gerox, "Already got a base camp. You want the WLA to all move out here? Not sure we'd all fit?"

Anthe winces and cringes as the large Minotaur destroyed the kitchen. "Well, I certainly hope you feel better." He looks for anything edible and makes his way back to the room with the fire. Finding a chair, he sits and whistles, calling Mahka in to lay beside him.

The night passes quietly and those standing guard hear little to cause alarm. As the sun rises you pack you bags and return to the city. Along the way you notice the trail is well worn now, trampled by the passage of the fleeing servants, and it remains that way all the way up to the city wall.

Rum is already awake with peddlers selling their goods and merchants offering a simple breakfast of rolls or muffins for a copper or two. Every week it seems like the streets are more crowded with citizens and merchants as the incoming ships dock and some aboard seek to find a new home. As you enter the WLA you see Ceri in her usual spot, reading the days mail. On either side of the table are several new faces, though you recognize Cameron and a few of the others as having been among those that fled the mansion the night before.

Please, have a seat. The large minotaur says as she lays down a letter sealed with red wax and motions to the empty spots at the table. These guests were inspired by your bravery last night and are seeking initiation into the WLA.

That's right! Cameron says. Most of the others are pooling their resources to open an inn, I have had enough of that type of work to last me a life time.

Ceri gives him a quick look and Cameron returns to his breakfast of eggs and sausage. As you can see, we were made aware of your success last night. There are no pressing matters at this time, just a few missing persons we have been asked to look into. She says as she points to a few of the parchment before her. Once you have filled me in on the details of last night you may have the rest of the day off.

ooc: Sorry for the missed post on Friday. Sprint no longer has coverage at my in laws, and I had planned to post from my tablet. I am back in town and on break, so there should be no more missed posts. I should have your XP calculated tomorrow.

"Again I'll say it Ceri. We came, we saw and we destroyed. Vampires? " the elf says with a shrug "between the Vampire Pirate and this new case, vampires have a reason to fear us. Anyone doing wrong has a reason to fear us because again we did our job, and not to sound cooky but we did it damn good. "

Barratore grabs himself a platter full of food and sits a few spaces down from Cameron away from Ceri. He nods in agreement to Edson's very short summation. Gerox and Peza could fill in the details, but between mouthfuls he blurts, "Tell her about the poem."
He then lifts a large tankard to wash down the egg soaked bread in his mouth.

Missing persons he could nothing about and so that bit of information quickly leaves his mind. He needed to hit the Catacombs and purchase some more potions and then get lunch. He wanted to have a good belly of food before the celebration later that night. Maybe some cards or other such distractions could be found

Gerox starts examining the loot they got from the vampire raid. "I guess we need to go to the Catacombs to get this stuff identified. I should change my spells around to get that spell. I would only charge the group half price." he says with a grin.

Gerox starts lugging stuff outside and summons a mount and starts loading it up. "Anyone want to come along?"

(ooc Do you want us to go to the Catacombs to get it identified or just give us a list? Then we can split it and then go to the catacombs."

DM James Typically I want players to at least attempt to identify the items. Assuming you have a decent number of points in Spellcraft (as Gerox does) I will usually give it to you unless it is an unusual item due to the fact that you could keep trying every day until you figure it out.

"Again I'll say it Ceri. We came, we saw and we destroyed. Vampires? " Edson brags as Barratore grabs himself a platter full of food and sits a few spaces down from Cameron. As he eats Peza fills Ceri in on the events of the night before and introduces the newest member to join your group and Brom tells her about the letter that makes him believe there might be a price on your heads.

Ceri considers this a moment. I will ask around and see if I can learn anything of this letter or why someone might be after you. In the meantime, the city has a favor to ask of you, one they claim you already agreed to help with. The town council has put together an official guard that local protection groups can bring criminals to so that they can be tried accordingly, as opposed to the protection groups carrying out such justice as they see fit. The guard will also intervene when they witness crimes taking place and handle those problems too large for protection groups to handle. Do to your reputation, they would like your advice in how best to carry out these tasks, particularly when it come to the issue of deadly force when a criminal is resisting arrest or putting others in danger. Please, take your time on this matter. Such a decision could greatly effect the development of the city.

As you all eat and consider Ceri's words, Gerox starts examining the magical items you found in the mansion, picking them up one at a time and carefully examining the intricate detail for any clue as to their hidden powers. One by one he notes an odd reflection of the light or intertwining of metal lattice that bind some magic to the treasure...

A Black Cloak with jade colored trim (Cloak of Resistance +3)
A Silver Headband inset with crimson rubies (Headband of alluring charisma +4)
A Silver Ring in the shape of a serpent biting its own tail and a ruby eye (Ring of protection +2)
A Potion of Haste
A Potion of inflict moderate wounds
A Potion of Magic Fang
A Screaming Bolt x2
A Silver sheen 
A Silver Bolts x10
A Tanglefoot bag 
A Black set of MW Studded Leather with black studs
A DarkWood Buckler with black inlay
A Longsword with the hilt in the shape of a fanged bat head with ruby eyes (+1 enhancement)
MW light crossbow w/ 10 bolts
A Black Cloak with Crimson trim (Cloak of resistance +1)
A wand carved out of bone with magic symbols burned into it (wand of scorching ray x10 charges)
Black Leather Armor (+2)
A Black Chain Belt (Belt of incredible dex +2)
A Dark Green Cloak (Cloak of resistance +1)
A Silver Ring with a large red stone (Ring of protect +1)
silver ring inlaid with a red sunstone (Ring of Protect +2)
Adorned silver cloak. (Former Legacy or Fate Item, now Mundane)

For destroying the vampires and not harming any of the servants in the process each player receives 12,000 xp and 1 hero point.

At this point you can nominate anyone who you felt acted particularly heroic or clever for an additional hero point.

(ooc wow nice load of loot! )

Gerox spends many hours looking over the vampire haul and makes a list for the group explaining what does what and then asks, "I think we should try and use as much of this stuff as we can ourselves. I would like the headband as it is more powerful than my current one. I can throw my current one into the mix as part of the loot.

Can anyone else use the wand? I don't think we will get a lot at the Catacombs for it and I really don't need it. The protection rings are nice. We should be able to use those as well."

As Gerox inspects and figures out what each piece of their treasure from defeating the vampires .. " wow that is hugh .... and your right that the catacombs won't give us a fair value on it ... we should incorporate them into what we can do ...."

"Don't" is Barratore's reply. "Shouldn't have everyone one running about thinking they got the right to put someone down." He then gestures to Peza, "Your call though."

When Gerox has the treasure figured out, Barratore finds himself impressed. There was some nice shiny things. Specifically the Black Cloak with jade colored trim and the Silver Ring in the shape of a serpent biting its own tail and a ruby eye. Hopefully, he thought, Peza would grant him one of those

"Damn that's a nice pull" Edson says a little too energetic. The belt and the rings of protection stuck out to him, but he wouldn't be selfish and let the others pick first. He got the shadow armor last time, and would choose after everyone else did.

Wednesday August 13th, 2014 2:35:59 PM
As Gerox spends hours enamored with the loot from the vampire haul he makes a list for the group explaining what does and encourages the group to try and use as much of the stuff yourselves as possible rather than selling it at the Catacombs for a reduced price. As he eyes one of the headbands Barratore examines the black cloak with jade colored trim and the silver ring in the shape of a serpent biting its own tail with a ruby eye. Edson waits his turn and lets the others choose from the treasure first as Peza encourages Anthe to take a share.

She then takes a moment to soak in Captain Ceri's words, realizing that what ever you decide will certainly have a lasting impact on Rum's reputation and path to its future. She she ponders the best path Brom grins. "Askin' us on killin'? Well, I know how to do that good. I guess they're lookin' for training. Sounds fun."

"Don't" is Barratore's reply, worried that giving the guards too much freedom could result in everyone running about thinking they got the right to put someone down.

As you discuss how to approach the issue Ceri watches, approving of much of the logic behind your arguments and reasoning. Keep in mind that these guidelines are for the city guard. The local protection groups have been instructed to use "no more force than is necessary" and to avoid the taking of life except under the most extreme of circumstances. Violation of these rules can get their status as a protection group revoked or even result in charges of murder or manslaughter against those involved.

I told the guards that you would be needing some down time after your last adventure. I expect you will have some shopping to do, and I believe some still need to get some training in.

(Remember that WLA members need to spend 2 days per level training in order to gain the additional skill points each level. If you have anything else you wish to do, make sure to let me know, otherwise we will move on once everyone is ready and any Catacombs purchases are complete. Also, please update your character sheets, some a a few levels behind and with a new Co-DM coming on I would like everything current and easy for him to follow.)

Ooc: While note necessarily "heroic", I agree that "Lord Kazil" deserves an additional Hero Point for his role playing in this module. Please add the Hero Point and additional XP to your character sheet.

Brom will wander around town for a while. He plans on grabbing lunch at the market and stop down by the docks. He stops to say hello to the guys at the dock. He also wants to see if he can find Old Salty to see if the old man has any interesting to say.

Barratore stands "I'm in" he says. Barratore heads out with Brom. They both had the same basic agenda and the same mindset and the minotaur found a strange connection with the raging human. So many differences, yet it all seemed to be normal. Nearly everything about Brom went against what Barratore was taught when it came to fighting. In the end though, he felt he found a kindred soul in honor, the thrill of adventure and life and a man who would not stand by while others suffered.

Barratore will go wherever Brom's whims take them on their day. After lunch, the minotaur will start pointing out the establishments that serve ale. In Barratore's mind, it was past time for a good pub crawl

Gerox will spend some time training with the WLA. He will ask the others, "If no one minds, I will take the Headband. It is more powerful than my last one and I can throw my last one in as part of the loot if anyone wants it. Peza, I think the others are waiting for you to divide up the loot.

The docks are busy with activity. Although the fishing boats have all left for the day numerous ships from the main land are unloading their goods to sell or reloading the ship with shrimp to sell Sell to the Taur Islands and New Elenna. After several hours a man pushing a wheelbarrow directs you the the Squid's Ink Tavern saying he saw Salty in there not long before. Inside you find Old Salty drinking from a metal.

After ordering a few drinks Brom and Barratore ask Old Salty if he has heard anything out of the ordinary lately.
Ahh, the winds be blowing out of the East. There be adventure to be had. Something about it stirs the blood. It was the Eastern Wind that caused the stirring in me so many years ago. I got the itch for adventure and and stowed away on the Asterion. I just acted like I was supposed to be there and joined in scrubbing the deck and hiding in the life boats to sleep at night. By the time someone realized I wasn't actually crew they had already accepted me and let me stay on board. Mark my word, with the shipping guild making a killing on the Leviathan Shrimp and transporting them across the Wold there will be many a boy looking to do as I did.

Seeing the look on Broms face Old Salty gets the impression Brom is more interested in local news and recent happenings. There has been a slight increase in crime lately. Seems the more boats come the more unscrupulous folk come with it. At first I feared what the protection groups might do to them they catch, but it seems the city guard be keepin an eye on the protection. Make sure a man get a proper trial just like on the main lad.

Did you hear of those bodies they discovered? Puncture wounds in the neck, like something was drinking their blood. For a while I though someone must have caught a thief and taken justice by their own hand, but now some people are opening an inn, claiming to have been dominated by vampires and just set free. Haven't talked to them myself yet. Not sure if it's true. May be it is, maybe it aint. Be curious to know.

As they discuss current events the rest of the League Adventurer's continue examining the items brought back from the mansion, the items considerably more valuable than what the city would have paid.

"Fishin' fer the big shrimp is exciting. We," he nods at Barratore, "had to end some threats to the big shrimp fishin'. They're some big things that eat those things. We fought a giant squid. That was definitely fun. Wouldn't ya say Barratore?"

"Ok, we've heard about the protection groups. I like ta spend my time down here, but I ain't in a lot. Local groups could be useful."

"We did hear about the bodies, and WLA handled it. No more vamp problems, and if anymore show up...we'll turn'em ta dust." He says and gives Barratore a forearm to the shoulder.

Other than that conversation, Brom picks up some drinks and food for the three adventurers. And he will pick Old Salty's brain for stories and not necessarily about local stuff. Brom will tell his own stories. He will talk about his trip to Rum, including the hell hounds and the sahaguin and his trip to the taur lands.
