Gaffer (Courtney HP: 61/61 AC:21(T:16/FF:15) CMD:20 WS 2/2 LL 0/8) Sunday October 7th, 2018 7:21:34 PM
Gaffer crosses his legs as he sits on the ground and begins communing with the lands around him. "I think that is a good idea, I've thought better of my spell selection, I won't be so useless next time."
Lornak (Frank S.) HP: 78/79 AC: 23(T:13/FF:10) CMD:15(16) d20+12=23 ; Sunday October 7th, 2018 10:01:54 PM
"I think we should just leaver her well enough alone." Lornak says. "She is invisible to us and long gone." And I am betting the swamp will be teeming with others like her...
Lornak's sleep is restless. He takes watch when it is his turn and rises well enough to travel.
As the day march rolls around he feels a bit more like himself. He floats his Ioun stone and takes in the terrain even though he knows what is ahead of them. (Perception d20=23)
Asteria (sub Nellie) Monday October 8th, 2018 10:43:24 AM
Hmmmmph!
The barbarian pouts at the missed fight, but is itching for the next one. "C'mon guys...let's go. I'm sure you got enough spells."
Dušan Danann (Erik) {HP:29/33; AC:17; Touch: 13; FF:10; CMD:16} Monday October 8th, 2018 7:11:23 PM
Dušan does what he can help with camp and steals himself for the journey to the tower. As he pulls his haversack on he mutters half joking, "S'pose it's much to late to turn around any ways."
To the Ruins Monday October 8th, 2018 7:23:51 PM
I have lost power. Can’t put in much from my phone.
Lornak (Frank S.) HP: 78/79 AC: 23(T:13/FF:10) CMD:15(16) d20+7=22 ; Monday October 8th, 2018 10:09:05 PM
Lornak shoulders his pack and pulls up he hood to hide his face from the sun. "S'pose it's much to late to voice my opposition to notoriety." Lornak begins to walk. "Better out here than in Dirt City right now."
Lornak traverses the terrain and does his best not to make any noise as he moves through the brush. (Stealth d20=22)
Toston Lotor(Hugh Crosmun) [HP: 59/59; AC:22/20/18- CMD 24 d20=18 ; Monday October 8th, 2018 11:42:29 PM
Toston alternates resting with his watch in case the Witchfire comes back.
Asteria Amarante [HP: 84/84; AC: 18; Touch: 12; Flat: 20; CMD: 20] Tuesday October 9th, 2018 6:07:53 PM
Asteria pats Wilford on the back a few times, a concerned look on her face. "Easy there, Wil. You sure you're doin alright? Maybe you should sit down a bit, take it easy." Turning to Ethani, she mouths to her sister. "What's a phone?"
Hmerrin(HP 91/91 AC:25 T:15 FF:21 CMD:25)Edr Elmt, Fire Res (10) Tuesday October 9th, 2018 7:07:16 PM
"One, everything is warning of impending doom, and two, the only travelers out here is us."
To the Ruins Tuesday October 9th, 2018 9:49:34 PM
The party decides to set watches and can easily arrange for the arcane spell casters to get 8 hours of rest, either putting them on the first or last shift works. The night passes without incident this time and some talk goes around about heading into the swamp once the initial mission is done. The Witchfire poses a possible threat to other travelers and perhaps the group should end her unholy unlife. Lornak is the only real descending vote on the idea. On her home turf of the swamp with who knows what else, the flying invisible spell casting witch could prove to be a real handful.
Morning comes, spells are prepared and studied and the group is soon off. Sharp eyes and knowing what to look for, finds the dried river bed the archon spoke of and the party drops into it for the last few miles of the approach. A unspoken benefit of the out of sight passage is that the going is far easier and the last few miles are accomplished in half the time. As a result, the party spots the tower of the ruins only a few hours after noon.
The party is still in the riverbed, which looks to come within 60' of the ruins as it passes on the eastern side. Currently the party is approximately 120' away
Lornak (Frank S.) HP: 78/79 AC: 23(T:13/FF:10) CMD:15(16) d20+7=26 ; d20+12=25 ; Tuesday October 9th, 2018 11:21:06 PM
Lornak puts his game face on when the tower come into his sight. (Stealth d20=26) He readies his crossbow and keeps his eye open. (Perception d20=25)
Toston Lotor(Hugh Crosmun) [HP: 59/59; AC:22/20/18- CMD 24 d20+14=25 ; d20+25=34 ; Tuesday October 9th, 2018 11:28:54 PM
Toston drinks his elixir of hiding and asks, "How do we want to approach the tower?"

Ethani (Nellie, AC 20, HP 47/47, CMB 4, CMD 17) d20+10=20 ; Tuesday October 9th, 2018 11:40:24 PM
Making sure all party members are fully healed before heading out (using the wand of Cure Moderate Wounds), Ethani shrugs at Asteria's question. She puts one finger to het temple and rotates out slowly in a small clockwise circle.
Once out in the field Ethani keeps an eye open for danger. Percept=20
Gaffer (Courtney HP: 61/61 AC:21(T:16/FF:15) CMD:20 WS 2/2 LL 0/8) d20+13=17 ; d20+8=27 ; Wednesday October 10th, 2018 8:24:30 AM
Feeling much better for being prepared Gaffer moves closer to the tower with the others. He casts Pass Without a Trace across the group again just in case, and keeps his eye out for any movement around the tower. (Perception: 17, Stealth: 27)
*****Active Effects***** Pass without a trace - Party - 8 hours
Wilford Grimly (HP:59/41; AC: 18; Touch: 12; Flat: 16; CMD: 18) Exhausted d20+11=29 ; Wednesday October 10th, 2018 12:38:14 PM
Wil stops as he holds his index finger and thumb to his ear. "I told you the Johnson account was to go out tomorrow. Now do it or it will be the last thing you do." He then slammed his hand down as if it was on a desk. "Sorry, employees you can't live with them sometimes." Wil than proceeded to move on like nothing happened. "We need to get close enough to the tower to get a good view of the area. Is there any landscape ahead that may help?"

Ethani looks over at Will in stunned silence. Obviously she was going to have to spend some serious time with him soon.
Hmerrin(HP 91/91 AC:25 T:15 FF:21 CMD:25)Edr Elmt, Fire Res (10) Wednesday October 10th, 2018 6:45:04 PM
Hmerrin glances over at Wil. "Seriously Wil, you might wanna get that looked at."
Turning his attention back to the tower, he asks Gaffer. "Can you turn into a bird or something and do a quick flyby to see if anyone's obviously about?"
Hmerrin himself peeks over the creekbed to see if there are windows in the tower. "Which is a question we probably shoulda asked Dog Boy," he mutters, annoyed with himself.
Asteria Amarante [HP: 84/84; AC: 18; Touch: 12; Flat: 20; CMD: 20] d20+12=19 ; Wednesday October 10th, 2018 9:32:31 PM
Asteria quickly decides that she agrees with Ethani's earlier diagnosis of Wil, and adopts a don't ask, don't tell policy with the strange rogue. Setting her mind to ignore his strange words, she tries to focus on looking for any danger in their path. (Perception: 19)
