Missing Person


An Unexpected Interruption (SteveK)  d20+30=49 ;
Sunday January 1st, 2017 10:50:23 AM

Velarin is more curious still about the mini sword on the braided cord, and casts another spell to get even more information. (DM rolled Spellcraft 49). As the elf studies the object, he sees the lingering aura fade and is gone. After some pondering (DM assumed taking 10 on Know Arcana 30), Velarin can conclude that the mini sword was recently used as a material focus of a spell. He feels there may be something more to this sword as well, but will need to study it even more closely...

Identify. Highlight to display spoiler: {This spell functions as detect magic, except that it gives you a +10 enhancement bonus on Spellcraft checks made to identify the properties and command words of magic items in your possession. }

.....

But other events intrude...

There is a knock on the door. At the door is a grubby dwarf, he's covered in dust and caked mud, he's wringing his hat in both of his hands. "Meh names Daah-no-van, Ah 'as toll youz mahite beh willin ta 'elp. See meh lil Sparkle 'as gome missin. She been s’posed ter ‘ave been to town an bak t’ree dayz agone. Ah 'as been lookin fer dayz an been 'avin no luk a tall."

"Roel, your skills as a kitten-wrangler remain unsurpassed," Evaris says with a grin.

He goes to the door in response to the knock.

"Well, I'd like to help if I can," he says. "Er...who is Sparkle, exactly?"

Velarin thinks about the little sword, trying to sort out a multitude of possibilities in his head. He plans on beginning a more thorough studying of the item when a knock on the door pulls him from his thoughts.

As he hears the dwarfs request, he drops the sword into his pocket, knowing that his follow up on it will have to wait. He, like Evaris is wondering who or what Sparkle is, and waits for a response from the Dwarf regarding that particular detail before continuing. Either way, he is pretty sure already that he and his companions will be leaving shortly on a search for Sparkle.

Barratore spent the short holiday relaxing, eating and drinking. "Never did get a full present at Yuletide, ah well. The break was a good one, but now onto adventure and some excitement." He muses aloud over breakfast

Barratore calls out for the dwarf to come in and have a drink and some food. He' intersected to hear about who or what Sparkle is and where they may have gone that they are not back yet

Brom laughs at the reactions to a kitten.

While the dwarf explains more about the missing Sparkle, he listens intently, mostly because he can barely understand the dwarf's common.

Lanliss hears his fellows speak with the dwarf as he tries to get used to the dwarf accent, understanding that someone precious to the dwarf , a wife or a daughter, has gone missing for three days now.

Donovan's Delimma (SteveK) 
Monday January 2nd, 2017 10:02:59 PM

Velarin takes the sword and pockets it to focus on the grubby dwarf.

Many of the other heroes try and wait for more information.

Lanliss digs through Donovan's heavy accent, and gets the right of it. It takes a little while, both from his words and that the dwarf is beside himself with exhaustion and worry. Donovan is a farmer a couple of hours south of Magpie Crossing, eyeing out a living on a homestead with he and his young adult daughter. Three days ago, she went to Magpie Crossing for some purchases and never came back. He has been searching for his daughter Sparkle who's vanished and can't find her!

Evaris (Kathy) 
Monday January 2nd, 2017 10:09:58 PM

Evaris listens to Donovan's tale with alarm. "That does sound serious," he says. "I could scry for her. I've never done it before, but Pantheon has granted me the ability." He looks around at his companions, to see whether they have other suggestions.

Emrys Myrridanmyl, stephen f. ac10 hp73/73 
Monday January 2nd, 2017 11:06:16 PM

"This is very serious, and we will find your dear Sparkle."

Turning to Evaris, he can't help but wonder when he had acquired such ability. Had Evaris been watching him perform all his various mystical divinations in the past. He was a master at Divination after all. So much of his study and practice has gone into the art ... no wonder his great talent rubbed off on Evaris. "No worry, Evaris ... I can show you many special techniques at sharpening your scrying eye."

He turns back to the dwarf and asks, "Do you have anything that belongs to Sparkle ... anything really, even something as small as a button or a lock of hair? Personal possessions help greatly in Scrying her location."

Baslim pauses during his drink. "Sparkle? Is she a gnome?" He sets down his goblet. "No matter. We should leave on the morrow to find her. Any belongings would help in tracking her."

" Just when i thought i had a chance to relax some more, we get another mission. A missing gnome named Sparkle. Consider her found because we are on this."

Scrying is a great idea Evaris. If it is successful, we can at least hopefully narrow the search area and see her current condition.

Tuesday January 3rd, 2017 2:58:01 PM

Barratore shakes his ahead a bit, confused. he couldn't understand how humans seemed to always confuse the other races. Why would the dwarf Donovan have a gnome daughter? And why did Brom keep getting called a minotaur. Maybe is was a compliment somehow of Brom's strength and good solid character, like a minotaur. But how would it be a compliment to the dwarf? Always thought calling a dwarf a gnome was fighting words.

No adventure or person too small for them not to care about and fight for.

"No offence meant to your scrying skills Evaris, but Warrd ever has a sense of humor and it's not going to be that simple." Barratore turns to Donovan, "Do you know some of the purchases she was off to make. Those merchants would be our best start to retracing her steps. Would she have originally been staying the night in Magpie, if so we could check with the Inn's as well."

Brom the Barbarian - Rich P; AC: 25 (T 14, FF 25, Raged 23), CMD: 31 (34 Raged); HP: 114/140 (176 raged); DR 2/- (5/- raged)

Brom agrees that they leave in the morning to find the dwarf's daughter. Gnome or dwarf, it didn't matter to him there was a missing person and her father was asking for their help.

The method of discovering her kidnappers was a matter of magic and that was the realm of others. His job would be to rest her from a pile of dead captures- that's what Brom did.

Donovan's Delimma part 2 (SteveK) 
Tuesday January 3rd, 2017 9:10:17 PM

Evaris offers to Scry for Sparkle

Emrys assumes Evaris' new abailities are entirely because of Emrys' skill!

Baslim wonders if the dwarf's daughter is a gnome. Must be a relation from a previous encounter of the wandering time.

Edson sighs. He enjoyed his more than a month of nothing to do, but when needs must...

Velarin agrees that Evaris has a great idea.

Barratorre wonders in his slow way about gnomes and minotaurs and how humans just can't tell the difference...

......

Donovan takes a grateful drink and rolls his eyes. "I aven't lifted tha skiirt of a green 'aired nome, me lairds. An I 'aven't ad a bit of me Sparkle aboot, but I 'ave sommat 'er fripperies inna 'omestead, ya ken."

Maybe not everyone 'kens', but with a little listening, Donovan has objects so Sparkles back at the farm. If the heroes go with him, they should be able to get an item of the girls.

(Four heroes seem in favor of Scrying, and two waiting until tomorrow. It is just after breakfast)

Evaris (Kathy) 
Tuesday January 3rd, 2017 10:19:16 PM

Evaris smiles at Emrys. "I assure you, Friend Emrys, it is all Pantheon's doing," he says. "But I only volunteered because I have the spell ready to go, and I wasn't sure whether somebody else would have it prepared. But of course, you don't need to prepare! So you should cast the Scry, and I shall observe your technique."

"But Barratore has a good point," he continues. "We should ask around in town. Unless--Donovan, have you already done that?"

Emrys Myrridanmyl, stephen f. ac10 hp73/73 
Tuesday January 3rd, 2017 11:45:56 PM

"If my patron,Theon and the rest of the Old Gods, who are combined to be Pantheon, chose for you this gift, then you shouldn't need great skill," he says to Evaris with a smile. "As a servant of the old Pantheon, I am honor bound to help you with your first steps."

"Also remember that ALL my spells needn't be prepared, my entire library of spells are available at any time, as long as the blood is willing. You all need only ask, when you require them."

Turning back to Evaris, "Why not you attempt the Scrying ... I can try other divinations. Two eyes are better than one ... the old school and the new. A possession of Sparkle's will make your Scrying attempt so much easier."

"We may as well travel to the farm and cast our scrying from there." The Shepherd is ready to travel after gathering his meager possessions.

"I agree with Shepherd. Let us head for the farm now. It is three days travel, and no sense wasting today around here as time may be a factor for her. We may find a clue or come across something on the way to the farm that could help us in locating her. We should let Donovon take us on the same route she would have traveled to get here."

Velarin excuses himself to assemble his gear, and returns shortly ready to head out on another mission.

Barratore agrees with Lanliss. "No harm comes from an attempt at this scry spell correct? If not, try now and we will head out as soon as you're done."

Barratore needs only a few moments to be ready to go, he suggests the sword in V's pocket remain behind and reiterates his questions to Donovan. hoping one of the others can understand and interpret the answers

"Do you know some of the purchases she was off to make. Those merchants would be our best start to retracing her steps. Would she have originally been staying the night in Magpie, if so we could check with the Inn's as well."

"Scrying sounds like a smart idea. Then like Barratore said we can head right out. "

Edson heads to his beadroom and grabs his gear. Ready to head out as soon as possible.

Donovan's Delimma part 3 (SteveK) 
Wednesday January 4th, 2017 6:13:47 PM

Emrys and Evaris attempt to out-courtesy one another.

Baslim and Velarin urge to wait until they are able to get an item belonging to Sparkle. And Velarin is corrected; while Donovan has been searching for three days, his farm is only a couple hour's walk to the south. If the heroes leave soon, they should be able to get there before noon.

Lanliss, Barratorre, and Edson all vote to cast Scry. But none of them can cast spells, and so have to wait on the casters.

Into the room come Glenda and Finn led by Roel, and they are carrying supply packs. "Got some lunch for you, and dinner if you are out late", says Roel.



Evaris (Kathy) 
Wednesday January 4th, 2017 10:29:33 PM

"Thank you, Roel," Evaris says. "Think you can manage that kitten while we're gone?" he adds with a smile.

To his companions, he says, "let's go get some item of Sparkle's so we can try the Scry spell. I only hope we'll be in time."

Brom has no opinion on casting the spell or not, not his area of expertise. While it's being decided, Brom goes upstairs and gets ready to go. He comes down after a while fully suited up and ready to go.

He attempts to recall anything about the land south of Magpie Crossing. Locations where the terrain would be advantageous for highway robbers and all sorts of vile scoundrels. (Knowledge [Geography]: 20)

Deathbark! (SteveK) 
Thursday January 5th, 2017 8:33:22 PM

Velarin leaves the mini sword behind. Roel smiles at Evaris as he acquires both Kitten and Sword. "May the gods be with you, and come back in one piece, eh?"

The heroes are quick to get ready, and Donovan is beside himself with worry over his daughter so is more than ready. And off they go!

Emrys and Lanliss consider what they know of the area south of Magpie Crossing, and know that the south road goes to Meadowdale, a halfling village right on the edge of the Culverwood. The road, by memory, soon enters a wood with gentle rolling hills so there are so many ups and downs and twists and turns... Emrys is certain there are loads of potential ambush sites within a couple hours' walk.

Donovan keeps a banter up as the team walks south. After breaking through the farmer's accent, he tells how he and his daughter were using the farm to reclaim a bad spot in Culverwood that used to have a Marteus druid cult infecting the area. “An there’s still some bad stuff aboot. Me Sparkle and me have the Forestwalking, but most of ye ain’t the lucky ones.”

Following Donovan to his farm, the heroes turn a bend in the Magpie-Meadowdale Road to get to the turn-off where Donovan’s farm is at, and there is a big tree in the road! “It’s Deathbark!”, cries Donovan. “But ee ne’er acomes ter dis part o’ tha wood, musta been summpin bad az ‘appened ‘ere!”

But a mere 40 feet away, a Gartantuan ebony tree devoid of leaves stands and moans. It is covered in hanging moss and vines, a sickly green sap glistening on the bark.

Barratore walks along, keeping his pace to that of the slower company. He glances about, more at the natural scenery than for ambushes or danger. The massive black tree in the middle of the road gets his attention and the fact that the dwarf gets all excited holds his attention. Barratore pulls his bow and takes aim as Donovan says something that the Minotaur just doesn't understand.

A shimmering hemisphere of semi-transparent white energy springs into being, spreading 10 feet on every side from the Shepherd. "Gather 'round. Or behind. It is an anti-life shell. This creature will not be able to touch us. There is no need to fight it while we can talk."

Barratore pulls his bow and takes aim as Donovan says something that the Minotaur just doesn't understand.

Evaris also draws his bow, but doesn't get ready for an immediate shot, hoping the team will be able to speak to the black tree. He steps into the shell behind the others.

Baslim grips his quarterstaff with both hands and holds it aloft, casting an anti-life shell, urging his companions to use his protection as a chance to talk.

Edson was ready to fire an arrow when Shepard cast his spell. " Brom aint gonna like the idea of not fighting and talking, but I'll say that was a smart play." The rogue moves behind Shepard, but his eyes scan the trees and brush for any ambushers.

Velarin moves in with Baslim too, along with a caution the tree may no longer be 'alive'. The elf also looks to get more information from Donovan.

Lanliss looks at the dead-looking tree in front of him and tries to be aware of any kind of movement that the dead thing will try, getting near Baslim and his anti-life shell spell.

Brom walks out front and sees the black tree, but has no idea what is going on with it. He raises his sword in a readied position, slowly backing into Baslim's protection.

.....

Donovan will readily tell the heroes that Deathbark is an Undead Treant who has been wandering the edges of south-east Cinnamon Valley for a few years. He generally stays away from farms and towns but is attracted to areas where violence happened. The dwarf farmer has never heard of Deathbark to ever cross the road.

Deathbark moans and moves forward. Barratore shoots and the arrow bounces off the tree. It only gets halfway to the heroes, but it is close enough for its branches to slam down... and Passes right through Baslim's Anti-Life Shell! It does ,however, miss Brom who is standing in front.

(Deathbark wasn't close enough for Brom to use his readied attack.)

Edson can't see anyone else in the area.

Donovan cries out in fear and huddles right up against Baslim!

Barratore drops his bow to the ground and moves forward as he draws his sword. No time for the shield. Barratore moves up 10' to get into his own range, knowing the tree can strike from much further away. But hopefully the tree would not be able to strike the others as they closed.

Barratorre stamps up, getting a hard oak branch slapped into his ribs for his troubles! (Barratorre takes 15 damage and Save Fort DC 19 Or be diseased). But it does allow the Minotaur to get in place and he slashes with all his might! Deathbark is wounded, but the woody trunk resists the cutting blow and it doesn't do as much damage as Barratorre thought it should.

Lanliss uses Barratorre's bulk to become less noticeable.

Velarin cautions Donovan to move back, and takes his own advice. It appears Barratorre's tactics have worked, because Deathbark is unable to recover fast enough to take advantage of the opportunity! And then the elf drops a powerful fireball onto the undead tree! It takes the full brunt but doesn't seem vulnerable to fire!

Edson starts firing arrows, and one looks to hit but only lodges in the tree's thick bark!

Brom steps in and lays his answer onto the tree for more damage!

.....

Donovan scampers back with Valerin, certainly obeying with fear induced activity!

Deathbark moans and swings two wide branches, one for Barratorre and one for Brom, and both miss! (DM: oh come on!)

(Knowledge [Religion]: 15, blah. Knowledge [Nature]: 23)

What Donovan had said about the tree, it must be true. He was correct about it being a treant after all ... at least it was at one time. Emrys decides to cast a quick little spel ... the fact it had a slowing affect was beside the point.

(Casting the Bard spell Slow on the Deathbark. Will Save: 21 vs. being slowed. Duration: 8 rounds. IF affected by this spell Deathbark is staggered and can take only a single move action or standard action each turn, but not both (nor may it take full-round actions). Additionally, it takes a –1 penalty on attack rolls, AC, and Reflex saves. A slowed creature moves at half its normal speed.)

For a moment, he considers channeling positive energy at it, but he's got something that might be even better. He casts Flame Strike.

Emrys casts a spell to slow down the undead treant, but the spell doesn't hold onto whatever mind Deathbark has left.

Velarin decides to speed up the fight and is able to haste all of the heroes!

Evaris casts a Flame Strike and Deathstrike is so big that he doesn't have to worry about hurting any of his friends.

Barratorre slams his sword into Deathbark, his ability to Penetrate damage reduction makes his attacks even more effective!

Baslim piles on Evaris' idea and hits Deathbark with Another Flamestike!

Edson fires two arrows, wounding Deathstrike more

Lanliss slides around, able to avoid Deathbark's notice before he scrapes some bark away.
......

Donovan remains behind Velarin, ready to run as fast as he can if Deathbark proves too much for the heroes.

The undead grant doesn't look so hot, but it is still moans and groans while trying to destroy the living beings before him! He swings at Barratorre and Brom again. Brom is missed, but Barratore receives an awesome blow! (Barratorre takes 18 damage, is thrown back 10 feet and is prone! Not only that, but he has to Save Fort DC 19 or be diseased!)

Emrys is confused by yet another addition to his long list of countless failures. His Slow spell isn't mind-affecting, nor does it target this undead's absent fortitude or any of its known immunities. However that is not the case. He wonders how such a creature could have the strength of Will to overcome his magical potency. "This transmutation should have worked ... even on this undead," he mutters.

He considers how useless he has become and just stands back waiting for the true heroes to bring down the beast. He can't remember the last time any of his spells had worked.

Donovan confirms Emrys' thoughts. Deathbark was what farmers and woodsmen called the tree, and there weren't none other like him about. He had been attracted by areas of violence, so much so that hunters would not linger at a kill and farmers would drive animals away from the farm before a slaughter. "Reckon we don' hav ta do thet no more", he concludes.

Baslim does a check on Deathbark and confirms the tree had Zombie Rot.

Barratorre, Emrys, and Lanliss take a search for treasure and find stuffed in a hole in the trunk is a mummified body of what used to be an adventuring half-orc ranger. Her equipment is surprisingly well-preserved! Velarin's Magic and skills rapidly identify the finds...

Barratorre's very careful search comes up with a rainbow ribbon that Donovan identifies as Sparkle’s hair ribbon; something must have happened to her here!

Emrys further identifies there are marks in the road. But what they mean, only someone with tracking skills will be able to make sense of it all. ...

A burial detail is formed and the half-orc corpse is put to rest off the side of the road in a convenient hollow under the trees. Hopefully, a good final resting place for a ranger.

Donovan confirms that they are only a quarter mile from his farm, and then he runs to Barratorre. "That's me Sparkle's 'air ribbon! She wuz awearin' it afore she left for tha day, three days agone!" .

Emrys makes note of the tracks, and it is Brom who steps up to provide the information. There was a small struggle here; a body imprint in a drying puddle, and scuff marks lead to the south. The girl must have been surprised around the bend just like the heroes and the undead treant, but it wasn't Deathbark who encountered the girl. There was something Large and bipedal, wearing boots that headed south.

Velarin also picks up something else with his Detect Magic spell; a fading fevocation is still here just south of the recent fight.

The ribbon was in the road and not among Deathbark's treasure. A quick check by Brom confirms the undead treant must have gotten to this location only minutes before the heroes themselves.

Monday January 16th, 2017 12:41:19 PM

Brom knows the tracks where Barratorre found Sparkle's ribbon are about three days old.

Donovan agrees with Evaris; he's not interested in danger and the dwarf has a farm to run. Before he turns off the road onto the track that leads to his farm, the dwarf gives a last bit of advice. "Merrydale is right there along this track", he says as he points the way off the main road. "You can't miss it!"
