Making a break for it(Dm sam) d20=10 d20=17 d8=5 d8=4 Thursday September 7th, 2000 4:09:01 AM
everyone meets up at the entrance to the temple. after a quick discussion, they decide to make a break for the front door. moving quickly, they are just able to keep the last member of the Red tigers in their sight. they move quickly for a few minuets, then loose sight of the red tiger they are following as he turns a corner. once they turn the corner, they see the hero they were running after sprawled out the floor, with 2 driders standing over him. each of then has an evil sneer on their faces. the left one bangs his axe hilt on the ground while the right one pulls out a bow and shoots at Gareth, hitting AC 4 for 5 pts of damage and AC -3 for 4 pts of damage(i dont have your character sheets, so i dont know your AC and HPs, so your on the honor system. if you would just send that, i would appreciat it) as soon as the axe shaft hits the ground, 8 of the bone spiders you fought before magically appear, 4 in front of the party, 4 in back, completely blocking in the party from the driders and the way they came from. the constructs bang their front legs together, ready for battle(party initiave)
Tericus(poision immunity, hill giant strength) d20=18 d8+10=17 Thursday September 7th, 2000 4:19:17 AM
setting Noonan against the wall, Tericus draws his mace and begins to hum. it quickly begins to glow, and he attacks the nearest bone spider at the rear of the party, hitting AC -3 for 17 pts of damage. "WE NEED TO MAKE THIS QUICK!!" he yells out
Nonam 8d6(2+4+6+1+6+6+5+6)=36 Thursday September 7th, 2000 9:26:24 AM
Slouching against the wall, Nonam pulls the fire wand out of his pocket. He points it toward the bonespiders in front and a pea-sized pellet of fire streaks toward them. The fireball explodes behind the spiders, hopefully catching the front four as well as the driders. (37pts/ea) Nonam grins, "See, I'm still pretty useful."
Gareth (Poison Imm, %50 Invisible, %50 Silent, Potion of Invulnerability - 5) d20=8 d20+13=24 d8+13=19 d8+13=18 Thursday September 7th, 2000 10:17:17 AM
The warrior retorts to Jus "As long as we're still alive I would say we've done everything right - at least the stuff that counts.". The warrior races after the Red Tiger and grimaces when he sees him fallen. He deftly avoids the first arrow but is hit by the second. After the fireball subsides he engages the first spider to the front he can get to (if the spiders are dead he attacks the drider with the bow). "Focus on the front. We can run from the ones behind us!" he yells as he whacks his foe twice (AC -3 for 19 and AC -7 for 18 = 37 DMG).
Onrad (levitating, blessed from potion, visible) d20=2 d20=9 d8+8=15 d8+8=10 d12+8=17 d12+8=15 Thursday September 7th, 2000 7:06:17 PM
(ooc: I've sent Sam copies of everyone's character sheet just now.) Onrad nods to Gareth and circles to the rear of the Drider. He then follows Gareth's pattern hitting one and then the other of the spiders if left alive and then the drider. He'll see that one is dead before moving on the next. (this is not arrogance, just strategy.) He attacks twice, from the rear (surprise check hopefully since he was invisible?) hitting AC3 and AC-4 for (large creatures?)15 and 10hpd each if normal sized (17 and 15 if large sized) Onrad, weary of it all and just wanting to get out, fights like a zombie, just whacking--too weary to think too much for the moment.
Jus (7 Stoneskins, 75% Silent, 18/10 Strength, Shield and Improv. Invis. cast at Apple Room) Thursday September 7th, 2000 7:24:35 PM
Jus turns to take care of the spiders in the back, giving the others time to clear the exit. He quickly judges the spiders' distance and the size of the hallway. Pulling out a wand, Jus creates a 6" thick Wall of Ice across the hallway between the spiders and the party. Jus yells, letting everyone know what he's done so they don't have to worry about an attack from behind.
Teko (Detect Invisibility) 5d4(3+1+2+3+4)+5=18 Thursday September 7th, 2000 10:30:04 PM
Teko aims the Wand of Illusion at one of the dryders in front of the party and shoots illusory Magic Missles at it for 18 hps of damage.

Noonan's fireball lights up the hallway, and once the smoke clears, one of the spiders lies on the ground burning, while the other 3 also look like they took damage. knowing what they have to do, Onrad and Gareth move forward, Gareth charging the nearest one while Onrad floats in from behind. Both of Onrad's blows strike the monster, but it doesnt fall. realizing that the driders are too far away to attack, Onrad concentrates ont the two spiders that are not engaged. his first blow hits but doesnt drop the middle spider, so he uses his other attack, which alst hits, but its not enough to kill the creature(no surprise roll because they are not alive). then Jus casts his ice wall spell, but he realizes just after he cast it that Tericus had ran back to the spiders to fight then, thus his spell has seperated Tericus and the rear spiders from the party. and Teko casts his spell, and the opposing drider yelps in pain as the bolts strike him in the chest. realizing that there are more people in the hallway than he can see, one of the driders says an arcane word and faerie fire spreads all over the place, lighing everyone up(everyone +1 to hit, monsters and heros). the other drider shoots 2 more arrows, this time at Onrad, but his bowstring snaps in his hands(critical miss). then the spiders strike. the one on Gareth claws and bites at him, but all his attacks miss. the one fighting Onrad also attacks, his first attack missing, but his second one hits AC 1 for 6 pts of damage and his bite hist AC -4 for 7 pts of damage( i couldnt unzip the ch sheets, so im assuming everyone is over AC 5, so im only posting those hits. your still on the honor system). the other one whose not yet engaged quickly scurries around Onrad and Gareth and attacks Noonan, seeing him as an easy target, one clawed leg hitting AC -1 for 5 pts of damage. then the four spiders on the other side of the ice wall go medevial on Tericus, but his god must be smiling on him, as he is only hit twice for a total of 10 pts of damage
Tericus(hill giant strength, poision immunity) d20=1 d20=6 d8+10=15 Friday September 8th, 2000 2:43:00 AM
realizing that he's in deeeep trouble, Tericus swings again at the spider he attacked before. he starts to loose his grip on his weapon, but just manages to hold on(used hero point), hitting it again for 15 pts of damage. "HELP ME, BY TERISALIA HELP ME!!!!!" he screams, panic starting to creep in his voice
Gareth(Poison Imm, %50 Invisible, %50 Silent, Potion of Invulnerability - 5) d20=16 d20=11 d8+13=19 d8+13=16 Friday September 8th, 2000 8:47:46 AM
The warrior attacks the spiders again connecting twice (AC -12 and -7 for 19+16=35 dmg) as he tries to finish them off fast. If the spiders he is engaged with die he moves on to the driders (note: did Gareth kill his spider last round? He intends to kill the spiders engaged with him and go straight at the driders, leaving the others for Onrad)
Onrad d20=16 d20=4 d8+6=13 d8+6=7 d12+6=16 d12+6=17 Friday September 8th, 2000 3:07:47 PM
Bothered that his body betrayed him in his fatigue, he labors on with the spider before him. (I posted that I wanted to attack the same spider as Gareth to try to finish one off. However, we'll leave things as they are. No worries.) He attacks the one on him. If he dies, he moves to the on on Nonam. He rolls a 16 and a 4 hitting AC-11 and AC1 for (still need to know what the size of the various creatures are please.) 13 and 7 points of damage resectively if medium sized or 16 and 17 hpd is large.
Teko (Detect Invisibility) Friday September 8th, 2000 11:25:34 PM
Positioning himself so as not to hit party members, Teko uses the wand of Illusion again, this time to produce a lightning bolt aimed at the same dryder he attacked before. If he can hit both by forking the lightning bolt, he does so.
Nonam Saturday September 9th, 2000 8:33:22 AM
Nonam grimaces as he takes damage for the first time since coming into Menzoberranzan. Then the mage whips out a scroll and starts reading. Infused with magic energy, he finishes the spell and casts "Hold Monster" on the spider before him. (sv@ -3).

Gareth finishes off the remaining spider on him, freeing him up to engage the driders. as he charges in, a bolt of lightning flies over his shoulder, striking the 2 driders(you didnt roll damage Teko, so i did it for you). one of them is instantly fried to a crisp, while the other one seems not to be effected at all. as the monster falls to the ground, the faire fire that covers everyone dissapears. Onrad kills one of the spiders on him, but the other one continues its attacks, with the bite hitting AC 2 for 7 pts of damage. still a little shaken, Noonan reads off his scroll, freezing the bony spider in its tracks. then after dropping his wall, Jus runs up and uses his wand, freezing one of the spiders, but not causing alot of damage to the others. the drider Gareth runs towards looks behind his back, smiles, then runs to meet Gareth, attacking him twice with a cruel looking axe, hitting AC -6 and AC -4 for a total of 24 pts of damage(13 + 11, Gareth make a perception check). one of the spiders on Tericus moves to attack Jus, but because the faire fire spell is gone, it has a difficult time finding him(-4 to hit). it swings its arms in the air, hitting nothing, while the other two continue their attack on Tericus, one of them hitting him for 6 pts of damage
Tericus(poision immunity, hill giant strength) d20=6 Monday September 11th, 2000 7:53:39 PM
thankful for the help, Tericus swings again at one of the monsters, but his swing goes astray. "Thanks for the help Jus, whereever you are." he says as he prepares for the spider's onslaught
Teko (Detect Invisibility) d4+5=8 Monday September 11th, 2000 9:02:01 PM
Changing position a bit, Teko uses the wand again on the remaining dryder, this time producing 5 illusory Magic Missles.
Teko (Detect Invisibility) 4d4(4+1+2+4)=11 Monday September 11th, 2000 9:03:54 PM
(OOC: Whoops! Forgot the other 4d4. Total damage is 18 points.)
Gareth (Poison Imm, %50 Invisible, %50 Silent, Potion of Invulnerability - 4, +1 Apple) d20=13 d20=16 d20=6 d12+12=14 d12+12=15 Tuesday September 12th, 2000 12:19:01 PM
The warrior swings back at the huge beast (large) striking him soundly twice (AC -8 and -11 for 14+15=29 DMG). He looks beyond the drider to determine what it is he was looking at - and smiling about (made perception).
Onrad d20=4 d20=17 d8+8=10 d8+8=12 d12+8=9 d12+8=19 d10=7 Tuesday September 12th, 2000 3:36:55 PM
As the spider's attack reaches for him, he somersaults backward barely escaping the bite. His face turning red from the near miss and his recent lack of concentration. He focuses once again on the remaining spider. He attacks once weakly hitting AC1 and then gets the correct position and lets the spider's own momentum drive it upon Onrad's blade hitting AC-12. He does 10 and 12 hpd if both attack hit. (9 and 19 if the monsters are large.) As the fighting continues, Onrad says, "Nice one Teko." Then he sees Jus draw his swords. "What? Where did you learn that Jus?" (made a voluntary surprise check rolling a 7.) Then realizing how funny this is, yells, "Hey guys! Jus can fight! I...I think I'm scared. Heheheeeee! Oh, run to your mamma your doom is certain. Jus can fight and you will soon be hurtin! Don't hang around. Jus ain't flirtin'!"
Nonam Wednesday September 13th, 2000 11:15:47 AM
Nonam blinks and looks around for something else to fight. The mage makes an obvious grimace at Onrad's "poetry."
Rnd 4(dm sam) d100=65 d20=19 d20=11 d20=6 d8+5=10 d8+5=8 d20=20 d20=17 d20=5 d20=16 2d6(5+1)=6 2d6(3+6)=9 d20=19 d20=19 d20=20 d20=6 d20=10 d20=16 d20=2 2d6(5+1)=6 2d6(2+4)=6 2d6(3+3)=6 Wednesday September 13th, 2000 6:59:06 PM
Onrad finishes off the last of the spiders between the party and the drow, its body crumbling into pieces. Teko's missles strike the drider, but he resists some of the damage they cause. Gareth's two hits strike the drider soundly, but its not enough to drop the horrible monster. Jus attacks the skelital spider on him, hitting twice, but not doing enough damage to destroy it. the drider strikes back at Gareth, hitting AC -1 for 10 pts of damage, but his other blow falls wide. then he flees the battlefield, turning left at a corner just a few feet away(you get and even/odd, Gareth, odd you get to roll 1 attack on him). the spider on Jus attacks back, one attack hitting him critically(20) for 8 pts of damage, while one hits AC 2 for 6 pts of damage and AC 3 for 9 pts of damage. then the other 2 attack Tericus, mauling him for a total of 30 pts of damage. Gareth can here boots banging on the floor from where the drider dissapeared to, and the prone body of the Red Tiger stirs just a bit
Tericus(poision immunity, hill giant strength) 3d8(7+8+7)+3=25 Wednesday September 13th, 2000 7:01:22 PM
looking like he's near death, Tericus pulls out a potion and drinks it down. instantly he looks alot better. "We're getting tested here Jus!" he yells out, as he readies for another attack
Jus (AC:1, 7 Stoneskins, 75% Silent, 18/10 Strength, Shield and Improv. Invis. cast at Apple Room) d20+2=3 d20+2=19 d8+4=7 Wednesday September 13th, 2000 7:38:09 PM
The spider's critical hit suprises Jus. Jus manages to avoid the spider's next two attacks, but is unable to recover in time to get his first attacks in (a1:fumble, skipped secondary attack). With renewed vigor, Jus wails on the spider again (3/2 primary), striking a solid blow to the skeletal creature (a19:ac-1:d7). "Then let's pray we pass the test!" Jus yells back to Tericus. "And have fun doing it!", he adds after dodging another of the spider's blows.
Teko (Detect Invisibility) Wednesday September 13th, 2000 8:40:04 PM
Teko casts Color Spray on the spider attacking Tericus. If he cannot aim so as to avoid hitting a party member with the spell, he will, if possible, move to another spider upon which he can safely cast.
Onrad d20=8 d20=10 d8+8=10 d8+8=15 Wednesday September 13th, 2000 9:47:03 PM
Onrad yells, "Jus, Nonam, got another of those wall thingees? If so we could move on. In the meantime, though, mind if I help?" Onrad darts to the rear of the party and attacks the spider on Jus hitting AC -3 and -5 for 10 and 15 hpd.
Nonam Thursday September 14th, 2000 9:12:01 AM
"I have one wall of stone, but it would be hard to cast while all of you are in hand to hand." While speaking, Nonam rushes over to the fallen Red Tiger. If he's still alive, the mage administers a potion of extra healing.
Gareth (Poison Imm, %50 Invisible, %50 Silent, Potion of Invulnerability - 3, +1 Apple) d20=7 d20=11 d12+12=18 Thursday September 14th, 2000 1:12:08 PM
The warrior strikes at the drider as he breaks away (odd) hopefully taking him down (AC -6 for 18 DMG). "Guys there are more coming. I think one of those walls would be useful about now on that side passage!". He moves to the intersection (not so as to be caught in or behind any walls that should pop up. Just so he can step around the corner in an instant) and prepares to defend the passage so the party is not cut off.
Rnd 5 - Will it Ever End(dm sam) d20=6 d20=2 d20=9 d20=14 d20=1 d20=20 d20=9 d20=19 d20=12 2d4(2+3)=5 2d4(2+2)=4 2d6(6+5)=11 d20=2 d20=17 d20=13 d20=7 Thursday September 14th, 2000 6:47:56 PM
as the drider turns to flee, Gareth whacks him in the back, finishing the creature off. Jus and Onrad hack and slash at the same spider, but they just dont do enough damage to drop the monster(perception check everyone to figure out why your having trouble killing the bone spiders). Teko's spell has no effect on the spiders, and once Noonan gets to the fallen Tiger, he sees hes still breathing, just rendered unconcious. Once he gives him a potion, he coughs a bit and begins to stir. then the spiders attack back. seeing Onrad and not Jus, the spider on the 2 attacks Onrad, but misses with all his attacks. the two on Tericus continue their attack, mauling him once again for a total of 28 pts of damage. the cleric falls to the ground, puncture and bite wounds all over his body. Gareth gets to the corner just in time to see a wave of green bodies come running around the corner. goblins, many, many goblins. four of them stop to engage Gareth, while the others continue down the hallway towards the party. the goblins miss Gareth, and he spies three drow soilders with the goblins.
Tericus Thursday September 14th, 2000 6:48:57 PM
after taking the hits from the spiders, Tericus falls to the ground, his mace falling out of his hand
Teko (Detect Invisibility) Thursday September 14th, 2000 10:03:04 PM
"It ends NOW," Teko says, with a dark smile. Once the goblins have passed Gareth, Teko casts a Spectral Force of a Fire Ball centered upon the goblin hoard. Conveniently, the flames do not engulf Gareth. If necessary, and just as conveniently, the flames remain just out of reach of the party.
Jus (AC:1, 7 Stoneskins, 75% Silent, 18/10 Strength, Shield cast at Apple Room) d20=10 2d4(2+3)+2=7 Friday September 15th, 2000 5:45:47 AM
"No!" Jus yells when Tericus drops. Heedless of his own safety, Jus runs through the spiders to Tericus, pulling a vial from the side of his pack as he goes. Not wanting to lose any time, Jus immediately pours a potion of healing down Tericus' throat (7hp healed). He then places himself between Tericus and the spiders, dropping his invisibility so they'll concentrate on him (DM requested perception check successful).
Nonam Friday September 15th, 2000 10:16:03 AM
Seeing the rush of goblins, Nonam pulls out the scroll with wall of stone and hastily reads the words. The scroll disappears as the side passage is completely sealed off so that nothing else can come down it (he makes absolutely certain that all the party members are on the proper side). Then the wizard calls out, "EVERYONE GET NEAR ME NOW! It's time to get out of here!" He's holding his firewand and looks like he knows what he's talking about.
Gareth (Poison Imm, %50 Invisible, %50 Silent, Potion of Invulnerability - 2, +1 Apple) d20=12 d20=7 d8+12=16 d8+12=14 Friday September 15th, 2000 11:06:04 AM
The warrior attacks the gobin closest to the party twice (unless he dies with one blow in which case the second closest gets it too) (AC -7 and -2 for 16+14=30 dmg). After delivering his blows he retreats back to where Nonam is standing, choosing to believe the mage knows what he's doing.
Onrad Saturday September 16th, 2000 11:30:54 AM
Not waiting to see if Tericus is ok, Onrad breaks from the spider on him and races to pick up Tericus, then closes to Nonam's side making sure that nothing can attack him while he does his stuff. "Come on guys. Break now. Move it!"
Rnd 6(dm sam) d20=6 d20=9 d20=18 d20=5 d20=10 d20=20 d20=8 d20=5 d20=12 d20=8 d20=4 d20=8 d20=9 d20=19 d20=5 2d4(2+4)=6 Sunday September 17th, 2000 6:22:20 PM
Teko's illusionary fireball goes off, covering the goblins in fake flames. when it clears, only 5 of the goblins are left standing. then Jus comes to Tericus's aid, and once the potion has been administered, he begins to coughing and wheezing. Gareth slays two of the goblins near him, then he runs over to join the party just as Noonan's spell goes off, sealing the passageway. Onrad grabs Tericus and moves near Noonan. all the remaining goblins, seeing all their fellows dead, abruptly turn tail and run down the passage you all just came from, while the bone spiders continue their attack. seeing Jus as the nearest opponent, they all scurry at him, slashing at him with their claws and teeth. only one attack lands, though, causing 6 hps of damage(hit ac -4)
Tericus Sunday September 17th, 2000 6:23:50 PM
after recovering his senses a bit, Tericus drinks another potion and some of his wounds dissapear

The warrior moves around and attacks whatever spider he can get to cutting into it with great precision (20!). He delivers the blows and then prepares to do whatever he can to absorb the attacks from the spiders and divert them away from the others (Hit AC -10+ and AC 3 for 34+13 DMG - please disregard the last 2 d20 rolls).
Onrad d20=14 d20=16 d8+8=16 d8+8=16 Monday September 18th, 2000 10:02:55 PM
Onrad making sure that he stays close to Nonam, also lashes out at any nearby spiders hitting AC-8 and AC-11 for 16 and 16 hpd. Hoody Hoo! Maxed out! (John I like these new dice rollers....hehe) Onrad checks to be sure everyone is near Nonam. "Ready Nonam!"
Jus (AC:1, 7 Stoneskins, 75% Silent, 18/10 Strength, Shield cast at Apple Room) d20=19 d20=1 Monday September 18th, 2000 10:56:12 PM
Jus backs up to Nonam, using one of his swords to successfully parry the spider's last attack (a19:ac-9). He prepares to parry again, if a spider manages to get too close before the party disengages (a1:failed parry).
"I'm ready when you are Nonam," Jus says. "Let's get out of here."
Teko Monday September 18th, 2000 11:46:41 PM
With wand in hand, Teko stands ready to run with the others.
Nonam Wednesday September 20th, 2000 7:05:23 AM
Nonam makes certain that everyone is in tight. Then he uses the firewand to create a circular wall of flame around the party. The flames crackle, but they feel cool. Nonam says, "I assure you that the other side is very hot.
DM JK Wednesday September 20th, 2000 7:12:34 AM
With a mad fury, Gareth crushes the hapless spider that Nonam held into bits, and Onrad and Jus keep any other spiders at bay. Nonam's wall of flame engulfs the party. Everyone has to get in close, but there is plenty of room. The effects of the apple wear off and suddenly you are all very aware that you still have to get out of this place. Gareth has been trying to ignore it, but now that the effects of the apple are gone, he feels sick. He's starting to sweat, and it looks like he might throw up.
Gareth (Poison Imm, %50 Invisible, %50 Silent, Potion of Invulnerability - 1) d20=7 Wednesday September 20th, 2000 3:22:51 PM
The warrior heaves a bit at the shock of the apple wearing off but he keeps a reign on his unruly stomach (Con check). He moves forward with the rest of the group when Nonam says to. He looks to the Red Tiger. "Can you get us back out to the door with the wall up?".
Onrad Wednesday September 20th, 2000 6:11:56 PM
Frustrated, Onrad says, "This doesn't help. We must keep moving. Otherwise it gives them more and more time to react and send in reinforcements." Onrad waits to see if the barrier can move. "Who can still go invisible? Perhaps we can sneak out. But we need OUT! I'm getting claustrophobic down here."
Teko (Detect Invisibility?) Wednesday September 20th, 2000 11:06:17 PM
"I believe I'm going to have to remain visible, although I can appear as something else if need be. (I have quite a few illusions left.) And I can do the same for others. We can be drow or dryders or whatever you like."
Nonam Thursday September 21st, 2000 8:03:52 AM
In answer to Onrad's question, Nonam starts moving, and the barrier moves with him. "Of course it moves, but we could sneak out though. That might be easier in the long run. I can take care of myself, but I can't do anything for anyone else." To demonstrate he holds something up to his face, sneezes, and ugly Nonam the orc stands before you.
DM JK Thursday September 21st, 2000 8:05:56 AM
Gareth still feels sick, as if he had the flu. He notices that no one else looked queasy when the apple wore off. Nothing comes down the hall... yet. The one spider that remained burns up in Nonam's wall.
Gareth (Poison Imm, %50 Invisible, %50 Silent) d20=8 Thursday September 21st, 2000 9:59:33 AM
The warrior recalls the blood from the matron (Int). "I think I was affected by the Matron's blood. It is really making me sick. I don't know anything else that could be making me feel this way. I'm sick guys. Really sick.". He staggers forward with everyone else. "I am able to invisible one more time. Should I use it now or try and save it for when we get out?". The warrior pulls out his potion of vitality and quaffs it in hopes that it will help stave off any affects of the sickness.
Onrad Thursday September 21st, 2000 12:45:14 PM
Onrad smiles at Nonam. "Good. Let's use this as far as it will get us. Then, perhaps we should Try Teko's illusions. Then we can fall back on final invisibilities, etc. if we need to." Onrad moves to support Gareth. "I got you my friend. Try to keep moving." Onrad tries to look through the flames to see what visibility we have through it. He estimates the inner size of their sanctum as well. He also listens to see how loud the flames are or if they make noise. "Keep a watch out for anyone that makes it through the flames. Nonam. You're the leader now. Set the direction and we're with you." Onrad grimaces as he supports some of Gareth's weight. "Teko, can you support his other side. I think the going will be easier. Especially if he falls."
Jus (AC:1, 7 Stoneskins, 75% Silent, 18/10 Strength, Shield cast at Apple Room) Thursday September 21st, 2000 3:01:03 PM
Jus keeps his swords ready, just in case something tries a suicide run through the flames. He also strains to listen for signs of the Tigers and their way out. Thinking of him, Jus checks on the Tiger and sees if he needs anything else.
Jus then, reluctantly, checks on Tericus -- a bit afraid of what he'll find.
Teko Thursday September 21st, 2000 11:20:12 PM
Teko hurries to Gareth's side, wrapping Gareth's arm around Teko's shoulder. Teko says, in reassuring but concerned tones, "We're here with you friend."
Tericus(poision immunity) 2d8(1+2)+1=4 Friday September 22nd, 2000 1:24:09 AM
Tericus's eyes opens up, and he unsteadly gets to his feet. "Im beat up, but I can heal my wounds and some of your's too." then he casts CSW on himself, healing 4 pts of damage. he looks at Gareth. "I cant really do anything for you until I rest."
Nonam Friday September 22nd, 2000 12:07:55 PM
Nonam tosses Onrad a vial in case Gareth is too sick to catch it. "I was told that ointment will heal any disease and stop any poison. Rub a bit on Gareth, and we'll see. Careful not to use too much. There's supposed to be several applications in there." [Keoghtum's ointment] The wizard makes certain that Onrad has the vial and starts moving down the hall with his wall of flames.
DM JK Friday September 22nd, 2000 12:14:17 PM
The party starts to limp its way down the hallway, and the Red Tiger starts pointing out directions again. As the party moves around, they notice that the floor is hot, evidence that they wall is ineed hot on the other side. It's possible to see through the flames, but only barely. As far as sound, there is no crackle from the magical fire since no fuel is being consumed. There is a slight whooshing noise though as the fire heats the air. Occasionally, the group passes small patrols, but chaos seems to be the general rule in these parts. No one looks like they want to tackle whatever shadowy figures are lurking about inside the column of flame.
Onrad Friday September 22nd, 2000 1:08:12 PM
Onrad says, "Gareth loosen your armor. My mom always said these ointments work best when applied to the chest." Onrad rubs in the ointment while trying to keep moving. He whispers, "Keep listening everyone. We should hear something if being attacked. At least I hope we can." Onrad helps Gareth close up his armor again. "Who has that Total Heal I gave out before the Matron battle? Give it to Tericus."
Gareth (Poison Imm, %50 Invisible, %50 Silent) d20=10 Friday September 22nd, 2000 3:15:54 PM
The warrior puts away his sword when Teko comes to his aid. He looks at him thankfully - not wanting to waste energy on words. He continues to move with the party at a reasonable pace (Con). He loosens his chest portion of his armor for Onrad to use the ointment. He looks up at his pack at the bottle heads sticking out. He gasps "I....there...potion of complete...".
Jus (AC:1, 7 Stoneskins, 75% Silent, 18/10 Strength, Shield cast at Apple Room) Friday September 22nd, 2000 4:05:25 PM
With tears in his eyes, Jus gives Tericus a big hug. "I'm so glad... I mean... for a moment I thought..." Letting go and sniffling a bit, Jus looks at Tericus and breaks into a big smile, "Were you really dead? Did you see anything? Bright lights? Your diety? Anything exciting?"
Tericus(poision immunity0 Friday September 22nd, 2000 9:16:14 PM
pats Jus on the back as he receives his hug. "I didnt see any light, it was kind of like going to sleep, except there was alot of pain just before I went out. But im alright now, I think." he says as he takes the potion from Gareth and drinks it down(fully healed(
Teko Sunday September 24th, 2000 4:15:25 PM
Teko continues to assist Gareth as they walk. He pays close attention to the flames around them, just in case he needs to produce an illusionary version of it later.
Nonam Monday September 25th, 2000 9:50:20 AM
Nonam moves along making certain that everyone is making sufficient progress.
DM JK Monday September 25th, 2000 9:53:22 AM
The Red Tiger guiding the party signals for the group to stop. "The gates are just a little farther that direction." He points down the hallway. Then in an embarrassed sort of voice, he adds, "I need out of the fire circle to join my own group. It might be a good idea to get rid of it anyway because it will draw the attention of the drow at the gate. It might scare goblins, but it won't scare the guards."
Gareth (Poison Imm, %50 Invisible, %50 Silent) d20=4 Monday September 25th, 2000 10:28:42 AM
The warrior takes a deep breath, stands erect, and draws his sword (Con by 11). "Thanks guys, I'd better not let'em know I'm hurt. Let's do it.". He prepares for battle.
Onrad Monday September 25th, 2000 3:43:39 PM
Onrad turns to Gareth, "So did the salve help any?" Gives the remainer back to Nomam. He says, "I'm up front then until Gareth feels better." Release the globe of fire at your convenience Nonam. Onrad takes an extra heal potion. (roll for me JK. I'm at school and don't remember the amount.) After Nonam releases the globe, Onrad takes a look around and if there is no opposition, or sees the other groups walking that way, leads the group in that direction himself.
Teko Monday September 25th, 2000 9:12:47 PM
Teko takes his wand in hand and follows along, looking for trouble (but JUST looking).
Jus (AC:1, 7 Stoneskins, 75% Silent, 18/10 Strength, Shield cast at Apple Room) Monday September 25th, 2000 9:16:09 PM
While listening for Gareth's answer to Onrad's query about his health, Jus switches weapons once again, sheathing his swords and getting his bow ready.
Jus frowns when he thinks about Tericus' words, "Where's all the fun stuff that's supposed to happen when you're about to die?" Shrugging, Jus says, "I guess I'll have to corner Teko one of these days and get some details -- or maybe..." with a faroff look, "maybe if one of you stand close by me with a potion of complete healing the next time I'm critically hurt..." Smiling mischievously, these thoughts perk Jus up again.
Tericus(poision immunity) Monday September 25th, 2000 11:20:45 PM
"I didnt know there was anything fun about dying Jus." Tericus replies as he puts up his mace and pulls out his sling, loading it with a glowing rock
Gareth (Poison Imm, %50 Invisible, %50 Silent) Wednesday September 27th, 2000 2:37:13 PM
The warrior tries to determine if the salve - or the vitality potion before that had any effect. He takes a position behind Onrad since he seems ready to lead.
