[18:01] <@Kotono> -----
[18:02] <@Kotono> In the aftermath of the battle, your new acquantence lies on the broken, faded ground of Hades as you gather up the booty of your victory...OOC: Go ahead and act.
06[18:03] * Thyan scouts the surrounding area for any other threats.
06[18:03] * Aleira trots over to the fallen warrior, gently placing a hand on his shoulder. "How're you feeling, tiger? We've got a few healers on hand. We'll get you fixed right up."
[18:04] <Thyan> "We should move. Quickly. One got away and may return with help."
06[18:04] * Fiora sighs, letting Morana hold onto Skyrose for now...just in case, and intones a quick healing spell for the woman as well.
[18:04] <@Kotono> OOC: Spot check, Thyan.
[18:05] <Fiora> "Let this light be a blessed rain upon you..." (OOC: CSW on Morana)
[18:05] <Thyan> roll d20+9 Spot
06[18:05] * Hatbot --> "Thyan rolls d20+9 Spot and gets 10."12 [d20=1]
[18:05] <@Kotono> The knight looks to have lapsed into unawareness, lying there beaten. Meanwhile Thyan sees nothing to indicate any other threats.
[18:05] <Fiora> roll 3d8+12 healing the tankzerker
06[18:05] * Hatbot --> "Fiora rolls 3d8+12 healing the tankzerker and gets 23."12 [3d8=2, 6, 3]
03[18:05] * Hatbot was kicked by Kotono (.)
03[18:05] * Kobot (~dunefar@ip68-10-224-127.hr.hr.cox.net) has joined #dunes
[18:06] <@Kotono> Morana's wounds largely mend from the healing, washing away the pain of the demon's strikes.
06[18:06] * Thyan sends Aaliyah aloft to act as an early warning scout.
[18:07] <@Kotono> OOC: Have the bird make spot, too?
06[18:07] * Iris glares down at the knight as though offended by his unconsciousness. "Might we vacate this area before the fiend returns with companions of its own?"
[18:07] <Thyan> roll d20+19 Spot (Aaliyah)
[18:07] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+19 Spot (Aaliyah) --> [ 1d20=19 ]{38}
[18:07] <Aleira> "Well, we can't just leave the poor guy here. I say we toss him in the back of the cart until he's well enough to strike out on his own."
06[18:07] * Fiora nods, "Let's, yes. Ah...Aleira, help me carry him?"
[18:08] <@Kotono> The way around you is clear - no sign of trouble at least.
06[18:08] * Aleira nods at Fiora and grabs the knight's legs, waiting for Fiora to grab his torso.
06[18:08] * Thyan turns to help as Aaliyah leaves his arm.
06[18:08] * Fiora grabs his torso, and with the others' help, loads him into the cart!
[18:09] <@Kotono> The knight is heavy, but he is loaded into the cart safely! OOC: Okay, now what guys? ADvancing on towards that place the 'loth mentioned or something else?
[18:10] <Fiora> OOC: I'd assume so, yes. fiora will try to tend the man's wounds while we go, as well.
[18:10] <Aleira> OOC: What fiora said
[18:10] <@Kotono> OOC: Magic or mundane, Fiora?
[18:10] <Thyan> OOC: Yes. I'll also be keeping an eye out for herb stuffs.
[18:11] <Fiora> OOC: another CLW, then mundane to see if he's suffering from anything besides just injuries.
[18:11] <Thyan> OOC: Remember, I also have a wand if you don't want to burn spells you can use in combat.
03[18:12] * Merc is now known as Morana
[18:12] <@Kotono> OOC: Okay. Survival check Thyan, Heal check Fiora and roll your healing and K:P check, Iris.
[18:13] <Iris> roll 1d20+13-2 I am stupid on this plane
[18:13] <Kobot> Iris rolled 1d20+13-2 I am stupid on this plane --> [ 1d20=4 ]{15}
[18:13] <Fiora> roll 1d8+7 CLW on the knightdude
[18:13] <Kobot> Fiora rolled 1d8+7 CLW on the knightdude --> [ 1d8=6 ]{13}
[18:13] <Thyan> roll d20+9 Survival
[18:13] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+9 Survival --> [ 1d20=17 ]{26}
[18:13] <Fiora> roll 1d20+11-2 heal check
[18:13] <Kobot> Fiora rolled 1d20+11-2 heal check --> [ 1d20=3 ]{12}
[18:14] <@Kotono> roll 1d100
[18:14] <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d100 --> [ 1d100=58 ]{58}
[18:15] <Fiora> (OOC: also casting another Make Whole to fix Skyrose the rest of the way up as we go)
[18:15] <@Kotono> The party travels along for a little time - perhaps the length of an hour, perhaps more, in this faded, melancholy wasteland. Sour memories and regrets come to mind far too easily, as if bubbling up in a bitter reflux of past mistakes. Yet your cart continues on - until Thyan notices a few clumps of red on the bank of the Styx, right on the very edge. He'd know these to be Styx-Tears.
[18:15] <@Kotono> OOC: Noted on the swordheal.
06[18:17] * Thyan pauses for a few moments to gather the herbs for later use in potion making..
[18:17] <@Morana> "Be careful aorund the river!" Morana reminds Thyan, not sure why he's gathering herbs, but not stopping him either.
[18:18] <@Morana> ooc: around*
[18:18] <@Kotono> OOC: How much do you weigh with gear, Thyan? Ballpark.
06[18:18] * Thyan grins back and twirls his mustaches.
[18:20] <Thyan> OOC: Uh, Gear is 82 pounds, body is.. I dunno 180 seems about average?
[18:21] <@Kotono> Thyan kneels down, gathering up the herbs! He gets enough for a few doses - but before he cna really count it, there is a sharp CRACK! Somehow, against all reason, the ground around him breaks apart, as if struck by a great titan's maul! He finds himself pitching forward, towards the black Styx! OOC: Reflex.
[18:21] <Thyan> roll d20+11 Reflex
[18:21] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+11 Reflex --> [ 1d20=7 ]{18}
[18:22] <@Kotono> But Thyan is much faster than that, leaping back even as the ground he stands on crumbles! He lands a half dozen feet back, stumbling back safely and away from the inexplicitly crumbling ground!
06[18:23] * Thyan stares at the ground with slightly wide eyes, not quite understanding how solid earth can just shatter like that.
[18:23] <Thyan> "Uh. That was.. not going to try that one again."
[18:23] <Iris> "The river seems hungry," Iris observes. "Let us steer clear of the banks."
06[18:24] * Thyan nods, stands, brushes himself off, and tries to calmly walk back to the others.
[18:24] <Aleira> "Letting you know right now, I'm totally not fishing anyone out of that."
06[18:25] * Aleira eyes suddenly fill with tears. "Oh, my gods. Why, *why* didn't I say goodbye to Mr. Snuffles before I went out to play that day?"
06[18:25] * Iris stops dead in her tracks for a moment, takes a sharp breath, hand over her heart. Does not tear up, because she's Iris, just as quickly shaking the mood off before anyone might comment upon it.
06[18:26] * Fiora shakes her head at Thyan's recklessness, but as he's fine doesn't stir from her place in the cart beside the knight. Her journal is out again, and she's writing in it as they go.
[18:26] <Aleira> Tears fall like rain as Aleira sniffles and sobs, burying her face in her hands. Incoherent mumblings and mutterings about her cute little doggy, dead years ago, slip past her fingers.
[18:26] <@Morana> Morana's face very briefly twists with emotion, before she controls her outward appearance. "Let's...let's keep moving."
06[18:27] * Thyan gets back to the group, but has a noticable lag in his step and seems a bit distracted, growing a bit angry, then dispondent in turn as they go.
[18:28] <@Kotono> As the party reacts and talks...rain. From the skies rain falls,  yet no clouds weep. Around you falls droplets of liquid - and in each one you can see glimpses, of tears, despair and misery. As each one splashes on you, a flash of a regret pounds on you. You weren't good enough. She died because of me. I never said goodbye. He hates me. Mother never loved me. Memories that are not your own,
[18:28] <@Kotono> howling at you in lamenting despair.
[18:29] <Fiora> OOC: is the cart one with a cover? Or did Hamish never say?
06[18:29] * Thyan stops for a moment before looking up at the sky, trying to push the thoughts aside as he searching for signs of worsening weather.
[18:29] <@Kotono> OOC: I have no idea, to be honest.
[18:29] <Iris> "I should have brought an umbrealla," Iris grumbles, pressing resolutely on.
[18:29] <@Morana> OOC: I assumed it wasn't covered.
[18:29] <@Kotono> The weather, barring the rain, is non descript. It doesn't even seem to form from clouds - it just appears a few hundred feet up and rains down. OOC: Not covered then. Okay.
06[18:30] * Fiora mutters and swiftly puts up her journal before the pages get wet.
[18:30] <Thyan> ".. I.. I can try to find us some shelter, if you want. No promises, though. Try not to expect too much."
06[18:30] * Aleira curls in on herself, hunching her shoulders. "I've never really hated anyone or anything my entire life...but this plane...", she trails off.
[18:31] <Fiora> "Wonderful. The one thing the oppresive mood of this place is good for, and it denies me even that." Nodding to Thyan, Fiora tries to offer a smile, "That would be appriciated."
[18:31] <@Kotono> OOC: Make a survival check, Thyan.
[18:31] <Thyan> roll d20+9 Survival
[18:31] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+9 Survival --> [ 1d20=11 ]{20}
[18:32] <@Kotono> OOC: Including the -2 to wis based skills for the plane?
[18:32] <Thyan> OOC: Nope. Thought that was Int based skills?
06[18:32] * Fiora forces herself to work through the rain's effects, and climbs out of the cart to put an arm around Aleira's shoulders, "Here...we'll be alright. We'll find shelter, and sooner or later a portal."
06[18:33] * Aleira leans into Fiora, forlorn and just plain depressed.
[18:34] <@Kotono> Thyan searches...but more of the color leeches out of the world. It feel so hopeless, nothing being found. Only the endless drumming rain of regrets, as...OOC: Will save, all. +4 bonus for Aleira and Fiora since Fiora comforted her.
[18:34] <@Kotono> OOC: Horse is immune due to animal and the knight's out cold so it's irrelevant.
[18:34] <Fiora> roll 1d20+10+4 will save
[18:34] <Aleira> 1d20+7+4 will
[18:34] <Kobot> Fiora rolled 1d20+10+4 will save --> [ 1d20=11 ]{25}
[18:34] <Iris> roll 1d20+9+4 inspiration point to not get stuck in Hades
[18:35] <Kobot> Iris rolled 1d20+9+4 inspiration point to not get stuck in Hades --> [ 1d20=11 ]{24}
[18:35] <Thyan> roll d20+4 Will Save
[18:35] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+4 Will Save --> [ 1d20=16 ]{20}
[18:36] <@Morana> roll d20+10-2 will
[18:36] <Kobot> Morana rolled d20+10-2 will --> [ 1d20=6 ]{14}
[18:36] <@Morana> ooc: actually +1 to everyone, since I should have the saves aura on.
[18:36] <@Kotono> OOC: Remember, add roll Zeph.
[18:37] <@Morana> ooc: +2 to mine since -2 is just to skills
[18:37] <@Kotono> OOC: Zeph and Hamish still need to save.
[18:37] <@Morana> roll d20+10+1 Hamish
[18:37] <Kobot> Morana rolled d20+10+1 Hamish --> [ 1d20=10 ]{21}
[18:38] <@Kotono> OOC: Zeph, you're up. Use the roll 1dwhatever form, Kobot doesn't handle rolls precisely likeHatbot.
[18:38] <Aleira>  roll 1d20+7+4 will
[18:38] <Aleira> roll 1d20+7+4 will
[18:38] <Kobot> Aleira rolled 1d20+7+4 will --> [ 1d20=10 ]{21}
[18:39] <@Kotono> As you search the rain of regrets passes. In the wake of this the storm of despair peters out. Yet in the aftermath, Morana has faded. There is no color on her - she is grayscale. A deep, hopeless melancholy clings to her now, her shoulders slumping. OOC: 1 point of wis damage, Morana. Act all. The storm's past.
[18:40] <Aleira> "It's official. I hate this place."
06[18:40] * Thyan notices Morana and strides past her on his patrol, patting her on the shoulder.
[18:40] <Aleira> "I want to get the hell *off* of this plane."
[18:40] <Thyan> "Once we get out of this place, we're going to need to stop for some food, ale, and rest, I think."
06[18:41] * @Morana just sighs in reply.
06[18:41] * Fiora stares at Morana a bit, then shakes her head, "I don't know exactly what that did to you, Lady Sunfang. But I swear, I will cure it once we quit this place."
[18:41] <Iris> "I am uncertain whether I dislike the plane or its inhabitants more," Iris replies as she soldiers on. "The creature we spoke to at the river, the way it looked at us? As though we were insects to be picked apart for its amusement? Unconscionable behavior."
[18:42] <@Kotono> OOC: Continuing on then?
[18:42] <Fiora> OOC: yup.
[18:42] <Thyan> OOC: Yeah. And against previous lessions, I'll be looking for herbs.
[18:42] <@Kotono> OOC: Make another survival chance.
[18:43] <Thyan> roll d20+9-2 Survival
[18:43] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+9-2 Survival --> [ 1d20=8 ]{15}
[18:44] <@Kotono> Thus the party continues on. Another hour? Another two? It all blurs together in this fading realm of misery. But in time, you see it ahead on the shore of the Styx. A ramshackle, oversized shack is there. It's made of broken bits of driftwood and clings together despite gravity claiming otherwise. It's one tall story, easily a good 40ft tall and quite wide. The back half juts out over the Styx.
[18:45] <Thyan> "... That looks... Unstable. I worry about going in there."
[18:45] <Aleira> "Soooo, who wants to go knock on *that* door?" Aleira asks, not particularly eager to volunteer.
[18:45] <Fiora> "If we have to go in, I suggest staying near the door." Fiora eyes the back half of the building's position over the dark waters.
[18:46] <Iris> "My desire to leave these plane overpowers my desire not to meet the inhabitants of this shack." Iris concludes, going to the door and rapping upon it.
06[18:47] * @Morana just watches Iris listlessly, and then at the door.
[18:47] <@Kotono> The door is more loose driftwood. On knocking it it creaks open ever so slightly, and a comely woman's voice calls, "Come in, dearies! Come in!"
06[18:47] * Iris pushes the door open, and glances inside before taking a step further.
[18:48] <@Kotono> OOC: Do you have darkvision or anything lik ethat, Iris-creature?
06[18:48] * Thyan looks at the others and follows, staying near Morana and keeping an arrow or two in hand.
[18:48] <Iris> OOC: my lizard has low-light vision! But that's it
06[18:48] * Aleira decides to stay outside and guard the poor knight!
[18:49] <@Kotono> Darkness. Ahead is no light, only darkness - save for 20ft ahead, where a circle of pale, sickly red light flickers. "Come into the light, dearies," The voice calls out, coming from deeper within.
06[18:50] * Iris glances back at her companions with implicit assistance that they be close behind her and perhaps be ready to put an arrow or three into anything that wishes to menace her inappropriately. "Greetings," she says casually to the...entity.
06[18:50] * Fiora approaches the house, but doesn't go further then the door, prepared to aid her allies if anything bad happens.
[18:51] <@Kotono> OOC: Not going in, Iris? Just wanna be sure here.
[18:51] <Iris> OOC: oops, I am, yes
[18:51] <@Kotono> OOC: Into the red light?
[18:51] <Iris> OOC: into the light!
06[18:51] * Thyan looks disgruntled and follows Iris, not willing to let her go in by herself.
[18:52] <@Kotono> OOC: Okay, Iris at the light, Fiora+Thyan at the door, Aleira+Knight+Hamish at the cart? What about Morana?
[18:52] <Thyan> OOC: I went in with Iris.
[18:52] <Fiora> OOC: seems like Morana's at the door with me?
06[18:52] * @Morana sighs as she sees others go inside, and just shakes her head sadly as she watches.
[18:52] <@Morana> ooc: with fiora, yes
[18:53] <@Kotono> OOC: Okay then, Iris'n'Thyan inside, Fiora and Morana at the door and the other two at the cart. Okay, no more lines, I'm replying now.
[18:53] <@Kotono> OOC: Barring the one I just told Fiora to make in PM.
06[18:54] * Fiora has no idea what might await them inside, but has the words to a spell that could aid them fresh at the tip of her tounge...(OOC: readied action to cast Resurgance if it looks like either of fail a save. Priority on Iris.)
[18:57] <@Kotono> Iris and Thyan come into the light! 20ft ahead and above another red light shines! Here a woman is held aloft by chains. Her skin is blue and scabby, her face a study in deformed ugliness and her body is clad in filthy rags. Her legs are pulled down and back, so far that they're on the verge of ripping off, occasional cracks springing open with splashes of blood, before they close shut seconds
[18:57] <@Kotono> later. Her midsection and chest are thrust forward, while her arms are free. Her back is straight up, despite chains holding her in place, digging into her skin. She speaks in a sultry, sexy tone, "Welcome, my little mortals. Want to go around and around with me, sexy boy?" she winks at Thyan, and then Iris, "Or sexy girl." Black drool comes from her mouth as she speaks, momentarily melting away
[18:57] <@Kotono> the flesh of her chin until it reforms seconds later.
[18:59] <@Kotono> OOC: Iris and Thyan, disregard the strike bit in your PMs since I wrong windowed it then didn't erase the wrong window correction. >_<
[18:59] <Thyan> OOC:... so it applies, then?
[18:59] <@Kotono> OOC: Yes.
[18:59] <Iris> This is the first time anyone's ever applied that adjective to Iris, and she seems to ignore it as an anomaly. "I seek information," Iris says simply.
06[19:00] * Thyan starts to vomit a little in his mouth, but holds it back, firming his grip on his bow and arrows, but declining to answer.. it.. and instead focuses on keeping his attention on the surrounding area, ready to defend himself and Iris.
[19:00] <@Kotono> Chuckling, as one blackened tooth is spat out, landing at Iris' feet, "What do you want to know, sexy girl?"
06[19:01] * Iris does not move an inch. "Our travels take us to other planes. We require a portal elsewhere and wish to know locations of such."
[19:02] <@Kotono> This draughts laughter - laughter from the darkness, several voices howling in disemodied mirth. The hanging woman's face splits into a grin - with help. Chains come down from above, pulling her lips apart into a grin. The flesh of her face cracks apart like dry, bleeding paper, peeled away to show the skull beneath. As blood trickles out of her exposed naval cavity, "Hahahaha, you want to run
[19:02] <@Kotono> away! Make it worth my time, little mortals."
[19:03] <Thyan> roll d20+9-2 Listen
[19:03] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+9-2 Listen --> [ 1d20=6 ]{13}
03[19:04] * Hatbot (~Hatbot@cpe-66-69-212-179.austin.res.rr.com) has joined #dunes
03[19:04] * Hatbot was kicked by Kotono (Kobot tonight, at least ofr now.)
[19:04] <Iris> Iris takes a moment to search her memories for what exactly this creature might be and what might be expected of any dealings with it. (OOC: can I grab a knowledge check before proceeding?)
[19:04] <@Kotono> OOC: K:P.
[19:04] <Iris> roll 1d20+13-2 WHAT ARE YOU
[19:04] <Kobot> Iris rolled 1d20+13-2 WHAT ARE YOU --> [ 1d20=19 ]{30}
06[19:05] * Thyan continues to be on guard against... whatever.. is in the darkness, but triest to recall anything he learned about such a.. thing.. as what's in front of him.
[19:06] <@Kotono> OOC: K:P, Thyan.
[19:06] <Thyan> roll d20+11-2 K:P
[19:06] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+11-2 K:P --> [ 1d20=8 ]{17}
[19:07] <Iris> "Rest assured that our souls are spoken for," Iris says, "but I am otherwise prepared to barter for this information."
[19:08] <@Kotono> "Wealth, treasure, lucre," The woman's sultry voice purrs, as if pleasuring each letter of each word. "Throw it at my feed, little mortal!"
[19:08] <@Kotono> *feet
[19:10] <Iris> "If platinum is to your liking, this can be provided," Iris says. "We must first know that you possess the information we require, however. And we are not indiscriminate in our destinations. Tell us what planes you know of portals to, and we may provide compensation in return for their locations if the destination proves palatable?"
06[19:12] * Aleira decides to scan the vicinity quickly, keeping a sharp lookout for intruders and danger in general!
[19:13] <@Kotono> "Provide it," The hag commands, "You will find out what you desire." OOC: Spot, Aleria.
[19:13] <Aleira> roll 1d20+2
[19:13] <Kobot> Aleira rolled 1d20+2 --> [ 1d20=5 ]{7}
06[19:14] * Iris turns to Thyan. "Retrieve payment," she says, leaving the amount to his discretion. It's not like they know what the coins are worth anyway.
06[19:15] * Thyan glances at Iris and then backs away slowly, heading for the door.
[19:15] <@Kotono> Thyan reaches the door without incident.
06[19:17] * Thyan heads to the cart and the plat, using his cloak to scoop up about half of the Platinum coins, carrying them back into the shack and the red circle.
[19:18] <@Kotono> "Now," One Thyan has returned, "Toss the treasure  to the floor ahead where you stand!"
02[19:19] * Fiora (~strikerul@c-76-102-68-140.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) Quit (Ping timeout)
06[19:19] * Thyan eyes the thing for a moment before dumping the Platinum across the ground.
[19:20] <@Kotono> Once done, "One more thing," The woman purrs, "Tell me, how did you find this place?"
[19:21] <Iris> "A charonaloth referred us to 'The Bloody Hand's Boathouse,' which I must assume is this structure," Iris says.
[19:24] <@Kotono> The coins lie in the darkness ahead, cloaked by it. "Cross the Styx here," The hag explains, "Travel straight ahead until you come to the Gray Monument. What you seek is there." After that she goes to rub her chin, flesh already having reformed on her face. "A charonoloth sent you?" Grinning now without the help of chains, "Kill them all!" she commands, as suddenly the sound of drawn steel echos
[19:24] <@Kotono> all around Iris and Thyan! OOC: Init.
[19:25] <@Kotono> OOC: Yes, you're in range of Morana's aura.

[19:30] <@Kotono> OOC: Iris, you open. Go.
[19:32] <Iris> Iris detonates a fireball behind the hag as cover and then immediately bolts from the shack! (OOC: aiming this behind her and to the side, don't want to catch me or Thyan in the blast but hopefully something around her will get caught in it)

[19:35] <@Kotono> A burst of fire - an no light at all from the flames. But you can smell charnel smoke! Outside, the party can see fire explode in the back of the shack, the back wall suddenly ablaze! OOC: Hamish, go. He's on the cart.
[19:35] <@Kotono> The hag looks unwounded by the flames, lips twitching in amusement, "Fire, is it?"s he banters back to Iris!
[19:36] <Fiora> The Incredible Robo-Ham hears the sound of combat and jumps off his cart, moving closer to the house to see what aid he can be!(OOC: single or double move to get to near the door?)
[19:37] <Iris> To clarify the situation for her companions, Iris calls out, "There is something here which requires immediate killing!"
[19:37] <@Kotono> OOC: Single. He's a bit back sinc ethe doorway's already crowded, though.
[19:42] <@Kotono> Hamish approaches the door but holds for the moment! OOC: Fiora's up. Go. Aleira after she finishes resolving adn then Thyan after she does and then ???.
[19:43] <Fiora> (OOC: are there any of us i can't catch with 20ft radius?)
[19:44] <@Kotono> OOC: The knight and Aleira on the cart. That's it.
[19:44] <Fiora> (OOC: Set Aleria to before me then, I'll cast after she moves in)
[19:44] <@Kotono> OOC: Okay. Go Aleira.
06[19:45] * Aleira clambers down off the cart and rushes to the entrance of the shack, pausing a few feet from the door, ready to confront whatever comes out and let her friends by!
[19:45] <@Kotono> OOC: Okay. Fiora, go.
06[19:46] * Fiora delays the cant of her spell just enough to make sure to catch Aleira as she enters the range, "Warmth and fading light, inspire us to rise anew! Sunset Blessing!" (OOC: Divine Protection. +1 morale to AC/Saves for all allies save Mr Unconcious Knight)
[19:46] <@Kotono> OOC: Righto. Thyan, go.
06[19:49] * Thyan moves with Iris, covering her movement, firing a pair of arrows at the Hag, hoping to at least provide some distraction/cover for the movement.
[19:50] <Thyan> roll d20+11 ATK 1

[19:50] <@Kotono> OOC: Arrow hits, though.
[19:50] <Thyan> OOC: Ah, ignore the second, though.

[19:51] <Thyan> roll 3d6
[19:51] <Kobot> Thyan rolled 3d6 --> [ 3d6=3 ]{3}
[19:52] <@Kotono> The arrow flies true as Thyan retreats out! The hag takes it in the stomach! As it does something flies down from above - a tiny thing, no bigger than a baby. It is bloated and purple, with a tail and wicked stinger dangling! It flies down at Thyan's head and stabs right at him with that stinger!

[19:54] <@Kotono> Thyan is stung right in the shoulder, the bloated thing flying back up into the darkness seconds later! Then...from the darkness three points of light emerge out, slamming into Fiora as she stands vigil at the door!
[19:54] <@Kotono> roll 3d4+3 magic missiled
[19:54] <Kobot> Kotono rolled 3d4+3 magic missiled --> [ 3d4=5 ]{8}
[19:56] <@Kotono> The missiles hit her all over, three minor strikes! As she recoils from this, in the darkness there is a heavy rumble and then? Atop the cart, next to the knight, appears a creature. It is all tense muscle, stooped over and still six feet tall. It carries a sawtoothed glaive and has a ragged beard. OOC: Morana, go.

06[19:59] * @Morana switches her auras as she holds ready for anything dangerous coming out of the shack after Thyan and Iris, planning to attack the first thing to follow out.

[20:00] <@Kotono> From the darkness it comes, a figure in full plate armor, lumbering towards the door with a heavy warhammer held in both hands, raised up to smash! OOC: Morana?

03[20:02] * Muirfinn is now known as Hamish
[20:02] <@Morana> ooc: more than that
[20:03] <@Kotono> But the heavy hammer blow misses Morana at the same time, heavily striking the ground next to her! Then the chained hag raises a hand, an orb of fire gathering there! She extends it out, before it streaks out ahead and out the door! In that moment, all the heroes are engulfed in a fireball, just like Iris's! OOC: Ref saves, all. Note Morana put up a ref booster just now. Also note if you have
[20:03] <@Kotono> evasion in the roll.
[20:03] <Fiora> roll 1d20+9+1+1+5 save boosters are fun

[20:06] <@Kotono> OOC: She's down to half then.
[20:06] <Iris> OOC: I did, yes
[20:07] <@Kotono> The burst of fire erupts around the party! It flash-cooks several of them, yet they all endure the painful burns! Ahead of you the front of the shack begins to burn rapidly, catching ablaze! Only the middle isn't burning now, but heavy, greasy smoke is spreading all over! OOC: Iris, you're up. Go.
[20:08] <@Kotono> OOC: To be clear, yo ucan't see into the shack now due to smoke and fire.
[20:10] <Iris> Despite the fact that she's smoldering with flames, Iris focuses and flings a trio of magical darts at the glaive-bearer on the cart before separating herself from the rest of the group to avoid any more firey blasts. (OOC: magic missile on bearded devil, then moving 25 ft to I dunno the right)
[20:10] <@Kotono> OOC: CL check. Outsiders adn the curse of SR strikes again.

[20:11] <@Kotono> The magic missiles fly - but simply sputter out against the bearded devil, like throwing water on the ocean! OOC: Hamish, go.
06[20:15] * Hamish concentrates for a moment, deciding that protecting his friends and providing cover while helping to douse the fire is his best option here. A curved wall of frosty mist appears in the air, engulfing the inside of the house in icy fog and chilly steam! OOC: Energy wall, cold. Fort save halves, DC 18. No SR. Encompases an area of 15 ft in a ring of cold energy.

01[20:16] <Hamish> OOC: Halve that
[20:16] <@Kotono> Waves of freezing cold appear, the flames in front dying down from the sudden wall of ice! Steam and mist rises up, providing even more cover than the smoke, as all of those war in the air! OOC: Fire in front is doing out. Fiora, go.
06[20:18] * Fiora looks back at the cart...but without her blade, there isn't much she could do against a bearded devil. Quickly reaching out to touch Aleira, she intones, "Faith smiles, and let my Will protect you!" Then she moves back as well, towards the cart but not within melee range of the devil. (OOC: Prot from Evil on Aleira.)
[20:18] <@Kotono> OOC: Okay. Aleira.
[20:19] <Aleira> OOC: I want to do a running tackle and knock that bloke off the cart. Is this possible? or can I only move/standard attack
[20:20] <@Kotono> OOC: You can. It would be a bull rush maneuver. You'll provoek an AoO from the devil since he has a reach weapon, though.
[20:23] <Aleira> OOC: Going to bullrush. Get him off of the wagon and away from an easy target
[20:23] <@Kotono> OOC: Okay then. You're okay with taking the AoO as you charge in?
[20:23] <Aleira> OOC: I'd provoke one either way, I guess
[20:23] <@Kotono> Aleira charges in, shoulder down! As she does, the devil whirls around, glaive coming down in one vicious swing!

[20:25] <Fiora> OOC: doesn't Aleira get a bonus for charging?
[20:25] <@Kotono> OOC: It's a str check, not an attack roll. In any case it's tied so reroll.
[20:25] <@Kotono> roll 1d20+2 devil's check.

[20:26] <@Kotono> OOC: Okay, strike, Gate's right.
[20:26] <Thyan> OOC: Range to the demon?
[20:26] <@Kotono> Aleira leaps in, slamming into the barbazu! It's knocked back off the cart, safely away from the knight! OOC: Thyan, go.
[20:27] <@Kotono> OOC: Devil, technically. 30ft away.
[20:27] <Thyan> OOC: Any attack penalty? Or are they on the opposite side of the cart from me?
[20:27] <@Kotono> OOC: No penalty.

06[20:37] * @Morana decides to just play it safe and remain a wall in front of the door to keep things from getting out, attacking things that try to get out and pushing them back inside. (OOC: same action as last time, planning to attack anything trying to get out with a full attack)
[20:37] <@Kotono> OOC: Okay. Hag is up.
[20:38] <@Kotono> From within there is another shaking burst! Fire erupts out the sides of the building, as the back half shudders! Aflame and smoking, it tears off and plunges into the Styx! A heavy splash behind you, but you have more pressing problems! OOC: Iris is up. Go Iris.

06[20:51] * Fiora moves near Iris, putting herself even unarmed as she is between the mage and the rock monster, then reaches back and lays a hand that glows with rosy pink energy upon her teammate. (OOC: Lay on HAnds, healing 15 to Iris. And making sure if the rock critter takes a straight line, it hits me first)
[20:52] <Iris> "Thanks," Iris mutters with some relief.
[20:52] <@Kotono> OOC: Okay.
[20:52] <@Kotono> OOC: Aleira.
[20:53] <Aleira> OOC: What's the nearest thing to me? Rock thing? And how far away?
[20:55] <@Kotono> OOC: Rock thing is 30ft away. It has reach so you'll get AoOed, fair warning. (Gee, this gets said a lot today.)
[20:56] <Aleira> OOC: Going to run and make a single Stunning Fist attack
[20:56] <@Kotono> OOC: Okay then. Declare it then I'll resolve the AoO and then the attack.
[20:57] <Aleira> Rolling off the ground and onto her feet in one smooth motion, Aleira fair leaps to the injured rock thing, hoping to put it out of it's misery!
[20:57] <Kobot> Aleira rolled off the ground and onto her feet in one smooth motion, Aleira fair leaps to the injured rock thing, hoping to put it out of it's misery! --> error: malformed expression

[20:59] <@Kotono> OOC: Hit. Damage.

[21:00] <Kobot> Aleira rolled 1d10+4 damage ( stunned for 1 round (until just before your next action). A stunned creature drops everything held, can't take actions, takes a -2 penalty to AC, and loses his Dexterity bonus to AC) --> [ 1d10=4 ]{8}
03[21:01] * Kotono changes topic to 'Iris(29)>Hamish(26)>Fiora=Aleira=Thyan=Bloated Thing(23)>Morana=Warhammer Knight(12)'
[21:02] <@Kotono> WIth a charging punch, Aleira hits the hole in the wounded rockman! Cracks spread all over until it shatters, now nothing but a pil eof rubble! OOC: Thyan, you're up. No visible enemies.
06[21:03] * Thyan holds and survays the area, looking for other threats, ready to react to anything!@
[21:04] <@Kotono> At the same time, a threat appears right above Thyan! IT ripples as it appears, the bloated thing - invisible until just this moment, stinger going for his shoulder!
[21:04] <@Kotono> roll 1d20+12 flatfooted AC, Thyan?
[21:04] <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+12 flatfooted AC, Thyan? --> [ 1d20=20 ]{32}
[21:04] <@Kotono> roll 1d20+12 flatfooted AC, Thyan? ow
[21:04] <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+12 flatfooted AC, Thyan? ow --> [ 1d20=14 ]{26}

[21:05] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+10+1+1 Fort --> [ 1d20=19 ]{31}
[21:05] <@Kotono> The stinger digs into his shoulder, causing Thyan to feel faint! A second later it's ascended up 20ft into the air and above, as...OOC: Thyan, about that held action, wanna take it?
[21:06] <Thyan> OOC: If it's still visable, yep.
06[21:07] * Thyan is knocked off balance for a second, but manages to recover and turn to his attacker, loosing a pair of arrows at the thing!
[21:07] <Thyan> roll d20+11 ATK 1
[21:07] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+11 ATK 1 --> [ 1d20=2 ]{13}
[21:07] <Thyan> roll d20+6 ATK 2
[21:07] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+6 ATK 2 --> [ 1d20=7 ]{13}
[21:07] <@Kotono> Thyan returns fire - but the small creature is too fast, avoiding each and every arrow! OOC: Morana, go.
06[21:09] * @Morana decides to abandon the defense of the door and goes towards Thyan, pressing a hand on him and healing him for much of his damage. (OOC: LoH for 21hp, 4 remaining)
[21:11] <@Kotono> OOC: Okay. No diea on the knight. Iris, go.
06[21:12] * Iris raises one hand to shoot down that bothersome fly, a beam of fire springing from her palm. (OOC: Scorching Ray, inspiration point spent since this casting's memorized under Factotum spells)
[21:12] <Iris> roll 1d20+7 ranged touch unless he has SR or something
[21:12] <Kobot> Iris rolled 1d20+7 ranged touch unless he has SR or something --> [ 1d20=2 ]{9}
[21:13] <@Kotono> The ray fires but misses the tiny target cleanly! OOC: Hamish.
[21:15] <Hamish> Hamish opts to abandon the energy wall and instead take out the immediate threat! Flying black blobs ahoy as the wall of cold fades! OOC: Entangling ectoplasm, ranged touch. No save, no SR
[21:15] <Hamish> roll 1d20+9 ranged touch of death
[21:16] <Kobot> Hamish rolled 1d20+9 ranged touch of death --> [ 1d20=13 ]{22}
[21:16] <@Kotono> The little creature is suddenly entangled in goo, barely able to move at all, sinking to the ground! OOC: Fiora, go.
06[21:18] * Fiora keeps alert, ready to heal or protect any ally who seems in danger should a new threat materialize!(OOC: holding)
[21:18] <@Kotono> OOC: Okay. Aleira.
[21:18] <Aleira> OOC: Am I anywhere near the blob thing?
[21:20] <@Kotono> OOC: 20ft away.
[21:20] <Aleira> OOC: So move+ single again, I'm assuming
06[21:21] * Aleira runs over to the bogged down blob, hoping to squish it into an untimely demise!
[21:22] <Aleira> roll 1d20+11 attack 1
[21:22] <Kobot> Aleira rolled 1d20+11 attack 1 --> [ 1d20=19 ]{30}
[21:22] <@Kotono> OOC: Hit. Damage.
[21:22] <Aleira> roll 1d10+4 damage
[21:22] <Kobot> Aleira rolled 1d10+4 damage --> [ 1d10=3 ]{7}
[21:22] <@Kotono> With the creature down, one good stomp squishes it, reducing it to a smear on the ground! OOC: Free act.
[21:24] <Hamish> "What goes up mus' come down." Hamish says, looking around. "Where'd the ugly lady go?"
06[21:24] * Fiora incants a couple quick healing spells.
06[21:24] * Thyan glances at the shack.
06[21:24] * Aleira peers into the depths of the house, trying to spot the enemies that might be hiding inside! "I suggest that if you wish to live, you surrender immediately and come out of that shack!"
[21:24] <Fiora> roll 1d8+7 fiora
[21:24] <Kobot> Fiora rolled 1d8+7 fiora --> [ 1d8=2 ]{9}
[21:24] <Fiora> roll 1d8+7 Iris
[21:24] <Kobot> Fiora rolled 1d8+7 Iris --> [ 1d8=3 ]{10}
[21:24] <Thyan> "Not sure. Want to see if we can get our coins back? She never gave us the information."
[21:24] <Iris> "The shack seemed liable to tumble into the river," Iris notes, swinging around the side of the building (after pausing for Fiora's ministrations) to check the damages.
[21:25] <@Morana> "I'd heard a splash of some sort earlier," Morana comments. "Is whatever creature you spoke with inside even still in?"
06[21:25] * Aleira mutters to the group, "I'd rather be safe than sorry."
06[21:25] * Thyan approaches the door, arrows drawn.
[21:25] <@Kotono> The shack is still steamy and smoky. You can't see much. No reply to Aleira's call.
06[21:26] * Aleira cautiously approaches the shack and sticks her head in, not straying over the threshold.
06[21:26] * Thyan lets an arrow fly through the door as a test. Just in case.
06[21:26] * Fiora looks around, sees no one else is in too bad of shape, and goes to join Aleira at the door.
[21:27] <Iris> "It was a night hag," Iris says, rejoining the others. "Most unpleasant. I grow quite weary of every creature we meet addressing me as 'mortal.' As if it amuses them to reinforce every moment the fleeting nature of our existence. It is most irksome."
[21:27] <@Kotono> The arrow flies! Nothing seems to happen.
[21:27] <@Kotono> The air is a miserable miasma, stinking ofsmoke and burnt meat.
[21:28] <Fiora> "Well, without being able to see in there, I see no way to search it safely."
[21:28] <Iris> "Best enter if we wish to be thorough," Iris agress, wrinkling her nose at the smell. "Ah, I recall that odor. Let's check and be on our way already, please."
06[21:28] * Thyan nocks another arrow and cautiously enters...
06[21:29] * Aleira creeps into the shack carefully, waving hands rapidly in front of her face, not moving forward until she is sure of the ground beneath her feet.
[21:29] <Aleira> OOC: Though it looks silly, I'm trying to clear some of the smoke. >_>:
[21:31] <@Kotono> With some effort the smoke clears. You can see the front of a ruined, burnt shack of driftwood. The back with the circle and the hag is gone - it's wide open now, a drop into the Styx. OOC: Spot, all.
[21:31] <Thyan> roll d20+9-2 Spot
[21:31] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+9-2 Spot --> [ 1d20=18 ]{25}
[21:31] <Iris> roll 1d20+12-2
[21:31] <Kobot> Iris rolled 1d20+12-2 --> [ 1d20=2 ]{12}
[21:32] <Fiora> roll 1d20+2-2 spot here hahaha
[21:32] <Kobot> Fiora rolled 1d20+2-2 spot here hahaha --> [ 1d20=2 ]{2}
[21:32] <Aleira> roll 1d20+2-2 spot
[21:32] <Kobot> Aleira rolled 1d20+2-2 spot --> [ 1d20=5 ]{5}
[21:33] <@Morana> roll d20+9-2
[21:33] <Kobot> Morana rolled d20+9-2 --> [ 1d20=5 ]{12}
[21:34] <@Kotono> Thyan can notice something - without the darkness now, he can notice what looks to be a dagger lies in the front right-corner.
[21:35] <Thyan> "Iris, there's something in the right corner there. A dagger, I think. Could you check it out? You're better at that kind of thing than I am."
[21:36] <Iris> "I am better at retrieving curious objects?" Iris says with a raised eyebrow. Shrugging, she goes to pick it up, borrowing Thayn's wand to run a detection spell on it. (OOC: already used my memorized Detect MAgic today, so burning a wand charge to scan it. SC if it pings.)
06[21:37] * Thyan gives Iris a dry look.
[21:37] <Thyan> "No, better with cruious possibly magical objects."
[21:37] <@Kotono> No magic. It's a dagger in the shape of a serpent - a casual glance can show it to be of good craftsmanship.
[21:38] <Iris> "Hmm." (OOC: appraise, then?)
[21:38] <Aleira> OOC: Can we roll search to see if we can find some of our old coins? I hate that we lost so much money.
[21:39] <@Kotono> OOC: Sure to both.
[21:39] <Iris> roll 1d20+4-2 I'm so great at this
[21:39] <Kobot> Iris rolled 1d20+4-2 I'm so great at this --> [ 1d20=7 ]{9}
[21:39] <@Kotono> Iris can't appraise the dagger for any meaningful value.
[21:40] <Aleira> roll 1d20+2-2 search for coins, please!
[21:40] <Kobot> Aleira rolled 1d20+2-2 search for coins, please! --> [ 1d20=10 ]{10}
06[21:40] * Iris shrugs again. "Quality craftsmanship, but not magical." She hands it off to anyone else interested in examining it and strolls back to the cart.
[21:40] <@Kotono> Aleira searches but finds no sign of the coins.
06[21:41] * Thyan looks around for anything else of use/value.
[21:41] <@Kotono> OOC: Search, Thyan.
[21:42] <Thyan> roll d20+11-2 Search
[21:42] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+11-2 Search --> [ 1d20=18 ]{27}
[21:42] <@Kotono> Thyan searches! In the wall near the broken edge he finds a false panel - however, he can also tell its trapped.
06[21:43] * Thyan studies the panel before trying to disarm it..
[21:43] <@Kotono> It's a simple enough sliding panel. Not hard to pen - the trick will be disarming it.
[21:44] <Iris> "Found something?" Iris observes while peering into the shack. She walks up and endows Thyan with added intelligence to aid him in his efforts. (OOC: Fox's Cunning, enjoy +4 INT)
[21:45] <Thyan> roll d20+11-2+2 Disable Device
[21:45] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+11-2+2 Disable Device --> [ 1d20=4 ]{15}
[21:45] <@Kotono> Thyan works, attempting to disable - and then there is a stroke of brilliant blue lightning that engulfs him, head to toe!
[21:45] <@Kotono> roll 1d20+10 touch AC, Thyan?
[21:45] <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+10 touch AC, Thyan? --> [ 1d20=10 ]{20}
[21:46] <Thyan> OOC: 14.
[21:46] <@Kotono> roll 8d6 and fort
[21:46] <Kobot> Kotono rolled 8d6 and fort --> [ 8d6=31 ]{31}
[21:46] <Thyan> roll d20+10+1+1 Fort
[21:46] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+10+1+1 Fort --> [ 1d20=9 ]{21}
[21:47] <@Kotono> The blast of lightning leaves Thyan sparking all over, terrifically fried and dazed!
06[21:47] * Iris takes a careful step back from the electrified Thyan.
06[21:48] * Fiora dashes over to Thyan, quickly chanting, "Life and light, soothe this pain!" (OOC: Cure mod)
06[21:48] * Thyan slams into the ground and doesn't move, groaning in pain.
[21:48] <Fiora> roll 2d8+20
[21:48] <Kobot> Fiora rolled 2d8+20 --> [ 2d8=12 ]{32}
06[21:48] * Aleira blinks at the flash of light. "Poor Thyan!"
06[21:48] * Aleira kneels at his side
[21:48] <@Kotono> His wounds are healed, as...OOC: Make a wis check, Thyan.
06[21:48] * Hamish raises both eyebrows in surprise. "Good gods, man!"
[21:49] <Thyan> roll d20-2
[21:49] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20-2 --> [ 1d20=6 ]{4}
[21:50] <@Kotono> OOC: Carry on.
06[21:50] * Thyan shakily stands up.
[21:50] <Thyan> "I.. I'm okay. I'm okay. Thanks, Fiora."
06[21:51] * Thyan shakes himself and goes back to the panel, checking it over once again...
06[21:51] * Fiora smiles at the archer, "That's my job."
[21:51] <@Kotono> Thyan can detect the trap is sprung.
06[21:52] * Thyan opens the panel, ready to dodge. Just in case. Just in paranoia.
[21:53] <@Kotono> As the panel is opened, a small dart flies out for Thyan, giving him a chance to dodge, at least! OOC: Attack roll, but you're not flatfooted for it.
[21:53] <@Kotono> roll 1d20+10 regular AC, Thyan?
[21:53] <Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+10 regular AC, Thyan? --> [ 1d20=9 ]{19}

[21:54] <@Kotono> roll 2d6 cha damage
[21:54] <Kobot> Kotono rolled 2d6 cha damage --> [ 2d6=5 ]{5}
[21:55] <@Kotono> The dart flies in, sticking right into Thyan's wrist! Heat flushes his body as he feels dizzy on his feet, unable to focus! Within the cubbyhole is a small box, carved of jade and decorated with whirling dragons.
06[21:55] * Thyan staggers and slumps against the wall.
[21:55] <Thyan> "Don.. Don't touch it... Maybe.. More traps."
[21:56] <Aleira> "Oooh! Shiny! I mean, uh," she corrects hastily, "oh no Thyan!"
06[21:56] * Thyan triest to focus, looking over the box for traps..
[21:56] <Iris> "One would hope an object hidden behind so many should prove to be worth the bother," Iris says, maintaining a healthy distance from Thyan throughout this.
[21:57] <@Kotono> OOC: Search check, Thyan.
[21:57] <Thyan> roll d20+11-2+2 Search
[21:57] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+11-2+2 Search --> [ 1d20=19 ]{30}
[21:57] <@Kotono> The box is indeed trapped, ready to unleash more magic if opened.
06[21:58] * Thyan shakes his head again, trying to focus.
[21:58] <Thyan> "Magic. There's another magical trap."
06[21:59] * Thyan attempts to go to work on the trap...
[21:59] <Thyan> roll d20+11-2+2 Disable
[21:59] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+11-2+2 Disable --> [ 1d20=10 ]{21}
[21:59] <@Kotono> Thyan works...he can't undo it, but he doesn't trip it either! OOC: Feel free to try again, inclonclusive result.
[21:59] <Thyan> roll d20+11-2+2 Disable
[21:59] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+11-2+2 Disable --> [ 1d20=12 ]{23}
[22:00] <@Kotono> ARGH! So close! Thyan sweats as he works - just a little more, he's so close! OOC: Again, inconclusive.
[22:00] <Thyan> roll d20+11-2+2 Disable
[22:00] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+11-2+2 Disable --> [ 1d20=7 ]{18}
[22:01] <@Kotono> This time the box opens - by accident! A moment later a massive blast of pure force slams into Thyan, sending him flying through the opposite wall and out at massive speed! Yet as the box opens, white light begins to emerge from it! (More)
02[22:01] * Hamish (~Yuthirin@c-71-57-26-119.hsd1.il.comcast.net) Quit (Ping timeout)
[22:01] <@Kotono> roll 8d6 force Thyan ow
[22:01] <Kobot> Kotono rolled 8d6 force Thyan ow --> [ 8d6=24 ]{24}
[22:02] <@Kotono> Thyan goes flying past the cart, landing at the bank of the Styx about 40ft away in a heap that knows two things - pain and more pain!
06[22:02] * Thyan groans and rolls around in agony.
06[22:02] * Aleira peers through the hole. "Walk it off, Thyan! You'll be ok."
[22:02] <Fiora> The groan means he's still alive.
What if they're not stars at all? What if the night sky is full of titanic far-off lidless eyes, staring in all directions across eternity?

Yuthirin

[22:02] <Fiora> The groan means he's still alive...Fiora hesitates before running to him, worried something will emerge from the box at her back!
[22:03] <@Kotono> The white light continues to shine from the box. Meanwhile...OOC: Fort, secondary save against the poison.
[22:03] <Thyan> roll d20+10+1+1 Fort
06[22:03] * Aleira watches the box closely. "Go, Fiora! I'll keep an eye on this thing."
[22:03] <Kobot> Thyan rolled d20+10+1+1 Fort --> [ 1d20=5 ]{17}
[22:03] <@Kotono> roll 2d6 cha just not Thyan's day.
[22:03] <Kobot> Kotono rolled 2d6 cha just not Thyan's day. --> [ 2d6=5 ]{5}
[22:03] <Fiora> Hesitantly, Fiora reaches down to close the box. Then moves to Thyan's side.
[22:03] <Thyan> OOC: 0 Cha.
[22:03] <@Kotono> OOC: This puts you at zero charisma and out cold, in a coma until you gain at least 1 cha. At least you're alive.
[22:04] <@Kotono> OOC: Are you looking in at all, Fiora?
[22:04] <Fiora> (OOC: prolly accidentally did while closing it, yeah)
06[22:04] * Thyan groans one last time and goes deathly still.
[22:04] <@Morana> "That is a lot of traps for one item..." Morana says with concern as she checks to see if Thyan is still alive.
[22:04] <@Kotono> Within the box is a shining white gem, like a diamond. It's about the size of a particularly large and plump cherry. It shines with its own enduring light.
06[22:05] * Aleira can't help herself! She withdraws the gem, curious. "It's so pretty!"
[22:06] <@Kotono> As Aleira picks up the gem, a  voice is heard, "I beg of you..." Ghostly and distended, "Help me!"
06[22:06] * Aleira frowns. "What? Who said that?"
06[22:07] * Fiora works on getting Thyan into the cart beside the knight, healing him again and checking to see if she can identify whatever has put him under so badly.
[22:07] <Fiora> roll 2d8+10 cure mod. Again
[22:07] <Kobot> Fiora rolled 2d8+10 cure mod. Again --> [ 2d8=6 ]{16}
[22:07] <@Kotono> OOC: Heal check.
[22:08] <@Kotono> "Listen to me," The voice pleads, "Escape from this blighted realm and shatter this stone in any other and I will be free. I will offer you a boon for your bravery, if you only do this."
[22:08] <Fiora> roll 1d20+11-2
[22:08] <Kobot> Fiora rolled 1d20+11-2 --> [ 1d20=12 ]{21}
[22:09] <Aleira> "Well, I don't know who you are! Everything in this damn place has tried to trick us and kill us!" Aleira glares cutely at the stone. "How do I know you're telling the truth?"
[22:09] <Iris> "Who are you?" Iris asks, "And how did you come to be in this state?" (OOC: although I am sure OOCly that this is a soul gem, no doubt K:P or something would be required to get details IC)
[22:10] <Fiora> "We're going to have time to discuss this," Fiora calls out sadly, "It will take me...probably days to heal Thyan properly. And to care for our wounded guest. We need to make a camp."
[22:10] <@Kotono> Light. Light shines from the gemstone - and in a twinkle of it, the glowing outline of a winged figure is seen, fading. "I am Sasameil, of the Fourth Choir of Elysium. I have been imprisoned in this gem. This is not right. This must not be."
What if they're not stars at all? What if the night sky is full of titanic far-off lidless eyes, staring in all directions across eternity?
