Syvanus can faintly hear something over the sounds of
Stringfellow  and chunky  crushing bone

Oren opens the secret door he's found.

In reply to Oren (msg # 2):

Kirpich, stone missile in hand, stands guard, with Chunky behind him.

At Syvanus' call, Stringfellow stops his work on the piles of bones.

In reply to Oren (msg # 2):

A skeleton in rusty armor bearing axe and shield lurches toward the entrance and prepares to swibg at Oren.

"Skeleton," Oren announces calmly, smacking the skeleton with his club, a glancing blow.

ooc: Defensive attack vs skeleton. Hit. 1 damage. Step back to let the others get at it.
10:23, Today: Oren rolled 13 using 3d6.  defensive attack.
10:24, Today: Oren rolled 1 using 1d6.  dmg.

In reply to Oren (msg # 6):

Despite the frailness of the aged armor, the skeleton shrugs
off the damage and steps through the gap. Behind  it are
several more.,,

Syvanus tries for the skeleton's neck , but misses.


[Private to GM:
12:53, Today: Syvanus rolled 15 using 3d6.  Called swing to the neck. Missed by 3]

Hurrying up the stairs, Stringfellow heads up to see if the others need help.

In reply to Stringfellow Hill (msg # 9):

Kirpich thows his stone missile instinctively at the skeletons torso, seeming to hit it squarely.

[Private to GM: Rolled 4 under to hit, 5 cr damage]

"Club, more live ones here for smashing!"

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 10):

The stone missle strikes it squarely, knocking it back.

You are in a sicx foot wide curving hallway. Oren ducked to
the side, Syvanus  is right in front, and Kirpuch fired a
shot right past him. It is a very tight space, and Oren is in
 a flanking position.

Syvanus reverses his swing and tries for the neck again with a bit more luck.


[Private to GM:  09:32, Today: Syvanus rolled 3 using 1d6+2.  4 Cutting Damage.
09:32, Today: Syvanus rolled 10 using 3d6.  Backhanded swing for the Neck. Made it by 2 even with the -5 for the neck]

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 12):

Syvanus' blade takes off the skeleton's  head, and it collapses with a rattle. The next one advances, but its feet tangle up with the fallen one.

Syvanus immediately takes advantage of the Skeleton's difficulty swinging down at it's shoulder/chest (Center of Mass)

[private to GM:  10:43, Today: Syvanus rolled 5 using 1d6+2.  Does 7 damage cutting
10:43, Today: Syvanus rolled 15 using 3d6.  Sword swing, tangled skeleton. made by 2]

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 14):

Kirpich creates yet another missile.

"Club, you are needed by Grom to cleanse the earth of abominations!"

As he arrives, Stringfellow sees that the hallway is too crowded to get through with his sword, so he pulls out his bow and draws a leaf cutter arrow.

Taking the time to wait for a clear shot, he aims for a skeleton behind the first one.

Danos also draws an arrow, and takes a second to aim. When he has a clear shot in the crowded hallway, he fires at one of the skeleton's skulls.
[Private to Narrator:
Should hit (Skill + Acc = 21) unless penalties for range and dark are more than -5.

8 imp damage to skull

11:37, Today: Danos rolled 9 using 3d6. Bow. +3 Acc, -7 vs skull, -? range+dark.
11:39, Today: Danos rolled 8 using 1d6+2.  bow damage.]

In reply to Danos (msg # 17):

Syvanus smashed back the second one, and the head of the third shatters with Danos' arrow.

How many more do we have?

Syvanus stands behind the fallen skeletons and readies himself... he also concentrates.

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 19):

Kirpich launches a stone missile, but it goes above and misses the next skeleton.

Danos draws another arrow and takes aim.

Oren gets out of the way of all the arrows headed his way.

Do we have friendlies in front of Syvanus and /or behind the skeletons?

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 23):
  SsS
_| s |_



Better? This corridor is 4 feet wide

In reply to Narrator (msg # 24):

Thanks. See chunky. Where is Club?

Syvanus tries a spell, but it fails with smoke coming from his nose and mouth.. he is coughing and gagging, doubled over half way.


[Private to GM: 19:20, Today: Syvanus rolled 16 using 3d6.  Breathe Fire 3 D.]

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 26):

The smoke disipates quickly. The downed skeletons are
obstructing the way, and Stringfellow  has a clear shot.

Chunky and club  are with Kirpuch, below stairs.

Stringfellow's hand cramps and he slips as he is about to release the arrow and it flies straight up into the ceiling.

In reply to Stringfellow Hill (msg # 28):

Kirpich checks behind them and begins descending the stairs.

"Club, what are you waiting for? Go and put those skeletons to rest in the ground please!"

[OOC why is he still up here when I have asked him twice to go to assist? Is he reluctant?]

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 29):

It has been three seconds since you asked him to stop smashing bones. He had just gotten to the base of the stairs.

Danos looses his arrow at another skeleton's skull. It's a good shot.

[Private to Narrator:

Should hit (same to hit roll as last time).

4 imp damage to skull

13:48, Today: Danos rolled 9 using 3d6.  Bow. +3 Acc, -7 vs skull, -? range+dark.
13:48, Today: Danos rolled 4 using 1d6+2.  bow damage.]

Oren stands to the side, out of the line of fire, ready to attack if any of the skeletons gets too close.

ooc: Ready triggered by skeleton entering melee range.

In reply to Oren (msg # 32):

The fourth one drops with a rattle, and another steps from the side into the doorway beside Oren.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 33):

Kirpich creates another stone missile.

"Make way for skeleton crusher" he calls out as he follows Club down the stairs to assist.

Syvanus stands up and comes on guard, although he is still coughing some.

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 35):

The last of the skeletons staggers through the door, its progress slowed by all of the bodies.

Syvanus stands to the side to clear the doorway for Kirpch

Danos also stands out of the way.

With the others clearing the way, Stringfellow launches another arrow, this one strikes the target, not the roof.

He then makes sure there is room for Club to get passed him.

In reply to Stringfellow Hill (msg # 39):

The skeleton is rattled by the arrow, and seems to focus its
attention on Stringfellow, and advances slowly.

In reply to Skeletal warrior (msg # 40):

Kirpich takes advantage of the path cleared for Club to throw a stone missile past his friend at the skeleton as Club approaches it.

[Private to GM: 4 under skill to hit, rolled 6 cr damage.]

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 41):

The skeleton catches it in the chest and collapses as its ribs are shattered. It is still moving, but on its back.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 42):

Kirpich creates another missile.

"Finish it club!"

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 43):

The elemental trudges over and starts crushing bones to paste.

"Well done."

In reply to Oren (msg # 45):

"Right. Anything else here to worry about? Perhaps club should follow whoever leads. Removing abominations like this from the earth is what he specializes in."

He looks over the remains to ensure they are all dead.

"He's your creation, why don't you take point?"

In reply to Oren (msg # 47):

"Because I am a healer, not a scout. I can if you want, but I am sure there are plenty better than I for that role. We are in trouble if not..."

"Healer? No, Kirpich. You're a priest. A priest of a god dedicated to removing abominations like these from the earth. Surely it's your duty to take point, so as to better confront these abominations?"

In reply to Oren (msg # 49):

Kirpich shrugs and begins moving forward.

"Priest, yes. But my job as priest is to support those doing the good work. The elemental themselves are given to assist us by being on the front line, in recognition that the front line is not where the priests belong. But if that is you wish...Chunky, please follow with the lantern."

He leads off down the corridor as asked, slowly and cautiously with shield readied, with Club being directed to stay in front of him.
This message was last edited by the player at 03:08, Fri 20 Jan 2017.

"There are many who feel that priests are mere healers," Oren said. "Within the adventuring community I've heard them referred to derisively as "healing farms." Can you believe it? A priest is a spiritual leader, whose job is to show their flock how to live a just life in the eyes of their gods. Sure, they can heal. But that's simply a task. It's not who you are, Kirpich. And what we need down here, most of all, are your wisdom and leadership."

How about I take Point... Club & Kirpich can follow me... I have a better chance of not setting off traps.

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 52):

Kirpich is happy to allow Syvanus to scout ahead, and makes way for him to do so.

Danos falls in line as the group advances.

Syvanus takes the lead and scouts carefully forward.





[Private to GM:  10:23, Today: Syvanus rolled 10 using 3d6.  Traps check.
10:23, Today: Syvanus rolled 10 using 3d6.  Perception. Made both]

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 55):

Aside from the half dozen shattered skeletons  and their ruined rusted armor and axes, there is not much in this room, aside from a flught of stairs up, and another adamantine seal on the floor like the obe upstairs

In reply to Narrator (msg # 56):

"Adamantine. We should come back for that later and put such gifts of Grom into hands that will use it properly. For the appropriate offering for those that collected it, of course."

"It is quite valuable, if heavy. Be a shame to lose it because the Lich's lair collapsed about us. Can you move the stone around it, so we can have your minions carry it for us?"

"Is it safe to remove it?" Stringfellow looks around the area for any obvious marks on the floor or wall to indicate a trap.
If he doesn't see anything he will prod the seal with his boot to see if it moves.

In reply to Stringfellow Hill (msg # 59):

"My Allies already carry a heavy load. It has sat there for a long time...a little longer will not hurt."

"If you say so. Keep in mind that we may not have the opportunity to return... this could be an opportunity lost."

As the other debate the Adamantine, Syvanus does a careful search of the room and walls for hidy-holes.




[Private to GM:  09:33, Today: Syvanus rolled 10 using 3d6.  perception.  By 4]

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 62):

In addition to the secret door by which you entered, you find
 the mechanism for opening it from the other side, and steps
 leading upward, probably to the entrance hall that also has
the adamantine seal on the floor... the same seal that was on the jeweled skull.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 63):

"I would say we will be returning here to rest at some point Oren. So rather than carry it down further, and then have to leave it there if we find something more valuable, best to leave them here for now."

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 64):

"Where to now?"

ooc so we have come in a circle, assuming the steps lead to the entrance hall?

In reply to Stringfellow Hill (msg # 66):

"Perhaps not. We cleaned all the skellys out of the entrance hall. This may be a new section, as we have gone down stairs..."

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 67):

Snorri mounts the stairs and peeps through the doorway.
 "It's the entrance way with the seal on the ground. We went in the right hand door and down, circled around and car to the left hand door. The middle archway is still there."
This message was last edited by the player at 21:02, Sat 28 Jan 2017.

In reply to Snorri Roslovich (msg # 68):

"So this was just a little secret spot between the doors?"

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 69):

There were two large rooms with skeletons, and a secret passage between them with steps down to the ossuary.

"Have we searched here to our hearts content?" Oren asked. "Anything we've missed?"

Syvanus shrugs ... I thought we made a careful search...

"Any passages, stairs, doorways we missed?"

In reply to Oren (msg # 73):

Kirpich just lets the scouts navigate, which is meant to be one of their specialties.

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 74):

"That leaves door number three upstairs."

"Okay, let's head that way."

OK, I'll check it out...




[Private to GM: 13:43, Today: Syvanus rolled 11 using 3d6.  Perception. Made by 2.
13:43, Today: Syvanus rolled 15 using 3d6.  Traps check. failed by 3]

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 77):

The way seems clear...

After a careful look around, he'll try the door.

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 79):

The archway is open, and leads into a long narrow passageway.

Syvanus scouts down the passageway carefully.

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 81):

Kirpich directs club to follow, and he and Chunky follow Club.

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 82):

There is a glint of something on the floor ahead. What   lighting are we using  again?

In reply to Narrator (msg # 83):

Kirpich peers intently at the object on the floor up ahead.

[Private to GM: Not sure of Lighting, but Kirpich has Night Vision 9, so if there is any light on it, he would see it pretty clearly.]

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 84):

there is a single silver coin on the paver.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 83):

OOC: I think it's Chunky carrying a lantern, per post 963 from the "In Shevnia" thread.

In reply to Danos (msg # 86):

Thanks!

Syvanus makes some moves from a few yards back...





[Private to GM:  15:17, Today: Syvanus rolled 8 using 3d6.  Apportation.  Made by 4]

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 88):

"A single silver coin? That reeks of trap..."

"You recall the coin we spotted only an hour or so ago?" Oren asked.

I do indeed....

"Are there any loose stones we can use to toss ahead of us?  Does that sound like a good idea, maybe trigger the possible trap from here? Maybe it is nothing, or maybe it is something."

Oren rolled his eyes and went up to look for traps.

[Private to GM: ooc: Traps-15.
23:36, Today: Oren rolled 11 using 3d6 ((4,4,3)).]

In reply to Oren (msg # 93):

There is no sign of anything near the coin that might be a trap.

"Could have been dropped by whoever brought our treasure down here. Does it detect as magical?"

In reply to Oren (msg # 95):

Marlena makes a gesture and green sparks crackle.
"The coin is not. Sonething else is, down that way."

In reply to Marlena DuBois (msg # 96):

Kirpich summons another stone missile...

[Private to GM: Rolled 13 under skill, 2d...]
This message was last edited by the player at 07:32, Thu 02 Feb 2017.

Oren steps back so as to not be in the way of whatever Kirpich plans to fire his rock at.

PM to GM....




[Private to GM: OK, Syvanus successfully apported the coin to himself in message 88. It seems that is being ignored ... did the spell not work? ]
This message was last edited by the player at 17:56, Thu 02 Feb 2017.

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 99):

Kirpich does not have a target...he is only preparing himself.

Oren doesn't know that.

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 99):

Just as Marlena cast her spell, the coin rolled back to Syvanus, and hopped into his hand.



Ooc missed that

In reply to Narrator (msg # 102):

Kirpich watches this and waits for the scouts to move forward.

Syvanus watches for any movement or action from the coin... he then checks out the coin.

Oren takes point, continuing down the passage mindful of traps.

In reply to Oren (msg # 105):

Kirpich directs Club to follow Oren, and he follows Club, with Chunky behind him.

Syvanus follows Club along with Kirpich...

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 107):

The coin is slightly  dusty, but appears to be identical to the others you have found.

The corridor continues on, echoingly, and there appear to be some very old tracks in the dust...

"Just think, maybe we will end up finding the entire treasure, one single coin at a time.  It should only take a week or so, and the minimal effort of walking through a few leagues of underground tunnels." Stringfellow jokes.

In reply to Stringfellow Hill (msg # 109):

A scraping in the tunnel ahead reveals itself to be another skeleton. This one is different, as its armor is newer, its eyesockets are lit with small bluish points of light, and its sword is engraved with  runes.

Syvanus stops and concentrates for a couple of seconds....





[Private to GM: 15:02, Today: Syvanus rolled 10 using 3d6.  Breathe Fire 3 D. made it by 2]

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 111):

"Club, another target. Please leave room to shoot it with missile weapons past you." he says as he summons another stone missile.

[Private to GM: 13 under skill, 2d+2 damage when thrown next round...]
This message was last edited by the player at 22:59, Fri 10 Feb 2017.

Oren gets out of the way to let Club take care of the situation.

Syvanus steps up beside Club and breathes a gout of flame from his mouth...



[Private to GM:  18:41, Today: Syvanus rolled 7 using 3d6.  Fire Damage.]

Stringfellow takes aim with a cutting arrow.
Upon release it strikes the skeleton and flies off to the side, doing minimal damage.

In reply to Stringfellow Hill (msg # 115):

The armored skeleton, now flaming, swings at Syvanus with its rune etched broadsword! An unearthly  chill emanates from its bony frame.
[Private to Syvanus: dodge, parry or take 7pts cutting before DR]

Club has a clear shot at its flank.

Syvanus raises his short sword to parry the blow.





[Private to GM: 10:21, Today: Syvanus rolled 12 using 3d6.  Parry. Just made it]

ooc: Is there room for Oren to make an attack at the skeleton, or do Sylvanus and Club fill the corridor?

In reply to Oren (msg # 118):

The corridor  is only three yards wide, so Oren could get to the side of Syvanus; Kirpich is preparing to heave a stone missike that way.

ooc: Gonna wait till he throws it then

In reply to Narrator (msg # 119):

Kirpich will only heave it if he has a clear shot...

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 121):

"Syvanus, duck!"

Syvanus steps aside and flattens himself against the passage wall. He keeps his sword up and ready.

Danos nocks an arrow and takes careful (3 second) aim at the skeleton. He will hold fire unless he has a clear shot.

In reply to Danos (msg # 124):

Kirpich's mussle flies, striking the undead in the chest. It is knocked back, but not down.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 125):

"There are more enemies of some kind ahead!"

If/when Danos has an opening for a shot, he misses.

10:28, Today: Danos rolled 16 using 3d6.  Bow 18, aim+5, AoA+1, Eye-9 =15 -? range.

ooc: Don't forget the chance to hit someone else, Danos. Makes firing into a melee extra fun!

In reply to Oren (msg # 128):

Danos' arrow glances off of its helmet.

This skeleton is wearing a slightly  rusted chain hauberk and a helmet of a
different style from the ones you defeated earlier.

In reply to Skeletal warrior (msg # 129):

"Club, finish it."

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 130):

Club swings at it, battering the bony warrior, but wavers after striking it. The small uneven elemental seems unsteady on its feet.

In reply to earth elemental (msg # 131):

"Club! What happened?"

He cast a spell and touches his friend.

[Private to GM: Major Healing, 2 free point to heal 4 points. What would he roll to determine what made him unsteady?]

Oren tries to remember if he's heard anything about swords like that the skeleton wields.

ooc: Hidden Lore (Magic Items)-15
17:46, Today: Oren rolled 12 using 3d6.

Syvanus gathers himself for another try....

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 134):

Club recovers fully from a sudden loss of fatigue.

The sword being used by this undead warrior looks suspiciously like one wielded over forty years ago by the Shevnian captain of the lost pay train.
It was an heirloom of his family and won him many battles.

"This was the captain of the Shevnians," Oren told the others. "Try not to damage his sword... if not enchanted, it's a valuable antique, and the family will pay quite well to get it back."

In reply to Oren (msg # 136):

"Perhaps, but right now it is hostile. Club, smash that skeleton!"
This message was last edited by the player at 08:49, Tue 14 Feb 2017.

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 137):

Club smashes at it, and once again seems  woozy. The thing recovers and swings at Club, missing it.

In reply to Oren (msg # 128):

OOC: I don't think there's a penalty to fire into melee if you have a clear LOF. Given the information the GM has provided, I don't think there's a problem.

From what I can tell, there are two people in melee with the monster, in a 3 yard wide hall. So something like this maybe?

         ___
     ___/Ske\___
    /Clu\let/Syv\
    \b__/   \anu/
    /   \___/   \
    \___/   \___/
    /   \___/   \
    \___/   \___/
    /Kir\___/Dan\
    \Pic/   \os_/

I know we're not actually doing combat with a tactical map, which is why I specified that Danos wouldn't fire if he didn't have a clear LOF since it's possible he might have. The GM said he did shoot, so I assume my LOF was clear.

In any case, it takes about four or five rounds for Danos to take a shot like that, so he's probably had his one and only shot for this monster.

If it's a real concern I can just switch to shooting non called shots, that way I'll be able to take the -4 for an intervening person and still have an effective skill of 16, which means my chance to hit someone in our party is less that 1%

In reply to Danos (msg # 139):

Kirpich again uses magic to heal his friend.

[Private to GM: Minor healing, rolled 9 under skill, 2 points of healing]

Putting away his bow, Stringfellow draws his sword and prepares to step in if Syvanus or Club falter and have to draw back.

Syvanus keeps his blade up and concentrates...




[Private to GM: Did the fire seem to have any affect agaisnt this skeleton?]

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 142):

The fire, club's  strikes and the arrow all seem to have done damage, but it seems to be ignoring the effects of these attacks. Perhaps they are not optimal to it's circumstance?



Club still seems a little wobbly.


Anyone have hidden lore:undead?

"Any sort of magical attack you can manage, Marlena?" Oren asked.

Syvanus flubs the spell ... He stagger slightly as he pulls back




[Private to GM: 15:01, Today: Syvanus rolled 13 using 3d6.  Breathe fire 4 D. Skill = 12]

Seeing Syvanus stumble, Stringfellow moves up to defend his recovery. While doing so he begins to sing at the skeleton.

[Private to GM: 06:41, Today: Stringfellow Hill rolled 13 using 3d6.  singing 15 (bardic terror).]

In reply to Stringfellow Hill (msg # 146):

Kirpich turns to heal Syvanus next.

[Private to GM: Rolled 9 under major healing 2 free fp to heal 4 pts.]

Syvanus holds up his hand... Not Injured ... just tired, blew a spell. need to rest.




[Private to GM: 14:21, Today: Syvanus rolled 12 using 3d6.  recover Energy. Made by 2. Actually not yet "tired"... down 7 of 11, so one point from it.]

In reply to Oren (msg # 144):

"I am better sgainst the living. I don't think Sleep magic would affect it."

"Appears we lack any real way to harm it," Oren said. "But of course, we didn't know we were up against a lich when we set out, or I'd have packed holy water. Given our inability to fight this thing, perhaps we should retreat, return to northport, sell the wand to refinance a second voyage with weapons more capable of harming the walking dead."

In reply to Oren (msg # 150):

"Would it be less effective without the sword?
Let me see if I can trim it a bit  around the edges."

"No idea. The dead aren't my specialty. But there's a lich down here, friends. And I don't think there's anything we can do to harm it."
This message was last updated by the player at 02:56, Fri 17 Feb 2017.

Yes... all I have is a fire spell, and not a lot of use of that...  we either need a special weapon, like perhaps that sword, or we are pretty helpless.

"See if you can get the sword, Snorri."

In reply to Oren (msg # 154):

Snorri pkants himself before the armored skeleton, and
cleaves mightily, chopping through its unarmored forearm,
 and causing the blade (and hand to fall to the ground with a
clatter.

The sjeteon folliws through on its swing, and grazes his
Shoulder with the bony stump of its arm. Snorri backs away, shivering.

"Damn, that's cold!"

Oren darts forward and grabs the sword. "Let's see if this'll do the trick."

ooc: Ready what I'm assuming is a broadsword.
This message was last edited by the player at 21:43, Fri 17 Feb 2017.

In reply to Oren (msg # 156):

The sword is a broadsword, and feels to have a good balance.

"Been a long time since I've held a real sword." Oren lashed out at the skeleton with its own blade. "Had to pawn my last one."

[Private to GM: 15:41, Today: Oren rolled 9 using 3d6.  attack 15.

(Skill 15 if it is a broadsword, 1d+1 swing damage)]

In reply to Oren (msg # 158):

"Have we tried hitting it with a magical weapon?"

Hopefully that sword is such.

Stringfellow slashes at the creature's head, attempting to disorientate it.


[Private to GM: 21:34, Today: Stringfellow Hill rolled 7 using 3d6.  Saber 14. 21:35, Today: Stringfellow Hill rolled 7 using 1d6+1.  swing.]

In reply to Stringfellow Hill (msg # 161):

Both swings, connect, and despite the heavier penetration of
 Stringfellow's blade, Oren's glancibg blow has more effect.
The thing claws at Oren, and while its claw is blocked by
Armor, the unnatural chill of it affects Oren profoundly.

[Private to Oren: you take 5pts fp]

Oren parries the incoming claw attack, slicing into the arm as he steps away.

ooc: Retreating parry: Success. Roll to hit attacking limb resulting from armed parry: Success. 4 cutting to arm.

]

In reply to Oren (msg # 163):

Oren's blow damages the skeleton, but does not crippke the limb. It is wavering now.

Oren follows up his parry with a another swing.

[Private to GM: 09:50, Today: Oren rolled 15 using 3d6.  attack-15.
09:51, Today: Oren rolled 3 using 1d6+1.

3 is just my swing damage; I think broadswords do sw+1? So 4 damage, + any bonus from the weapon's enchantments.]

In reply to Oren (msg # 165):

The lighrs in its eyes dalter, and it collapses.

Check the helm and shield too, both may be enchanted as well.

[Private to GM: Based on Oren's observations, who looks like they're most skilled with a broadsword?]

In reply to Oren (msg # 168):

The helm and shield are rusty, and like the hauberk, better armor than Oren is wearing. Oren mught be the most suited to broadsword use.

Oren takes the helm, shield, and hauberk as well. "We'll sell what we can when we return," he said, packing away his leathers.

In reply to Oren (msg # 170):

Kirpich checks for magic...

[Private to GM: Rolled 11 under skill.]

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 171):

Only the sword appears magical.

[Private to Oren: you have chainmail without underpadding, DR 3/1, covering torso groin and upper legs and upoer arms. The helmet is DR4, the shield medium and cheap]

"Och, this is heavy," Oren said. "Anybody else want the armor? I fear it'll slow me down too much."

ooc: Wearing the hauberk and carrying the shield brings Oren to Heavy encumbrance. Hauberk is 19 lbs (sans padding), shield is 15.

Hard to scout wearing that... maybe Snorri?

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 174):

"Would be a pity to waste it..."

He says, summoning another stone missile and standing where he can use it if they are disturbed.

[Private to GM: 11 under skill to cast, 2d, Can chunky use the armour?]

Sweeping his cloak back, Stringfellow points to the hauberk he already owns. "I'm good with this one, though I definitely recommend them for the great protection they offer."

"So do we press on now that we are armed with a magical weapon, or head back?"

We have come to far to quit now.

"We only have one means of harming such creatures, and I fear we will face many more. We have not come too far to turn back. That's the sunk-cost fallacy. But if the group wants to press on, I will submit to the group's will."

In reply to Oren (msg # 179):

*Ten minutes ago we could not harm then. I say press on.*

"Fortune favors the bold. I would be willing to continue for now."

"Sounds like we're pushing on. Marlena spotted more enemies further along, so let's proceed with caution."

If nobody wants the armor, Oren leaves it behind and sticks to his leather.

Syvanus picks up the armor and stuffs it in his back back....

ooc: The hauberk is 19 lbs, the shield is 15 lbs, an extra 34 lbs in all. Oren is keeping the helmet.

In reply to Oren (msg # 185):

Chunky is the wrong build for the armor.

In reply to Oren (msg # 185):

Can't carry the shield... just the armor (Hauberk)

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 187):

As you move on, there is a faint chill in the air.

OOC - How long did we rest?  An hour would do wonders...

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 189):

That was close to 5 minutes. This corridor might not be the best place to rest longer.

Syvanus follows along, obviously a bit slow.

Oren takes point, looking for traps and other badness, moving as quietly as he can manage.

ooc: 11:33, Today: Oren rolled 11 using 3d6.  stealth-14.
11:33, Today: Oren rolled 10 using 3d6.  traps-15.

In reply to Oren (msg # 192):

You are well past the two side rooms, and the hall continues on. A slight
 updraft indicates there may be stairs down ahead.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 193):

Kirpich and his fares follow the scout ahead, Kirpich with stone in hand and Club, well, his hand is a club!

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 194):

Marlene casts another light spell with a crackle of green sparks, and
sends it ahead.  A steep flight of stairs down is revealed, with runes
carved into some of the steps.
This message was last edited by the player at 16:49, Tue 28 Feb 2017.

Stringfellow keeps an eye on their back trail while the others are examining the stairway.

Oren heads on down.

In reply to Oren (msg # 197):

Stepping on runes or stairs without?

ooc: Provided no traps are discovered, without.

In reply to Oren (msg # 199):

Carefully, Oren makes his way down the long flight of steps, about 8 yards worth.

"Step only where I step."

Are his steps clear in the dust?

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 202):

Kirpich will instruct Chunky and Club to follow exactly in his footsteps, and will do so himself.

Danos follows in the footsteps.

Syvanus supports Stringfellow.

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 205):

A bluish white light forms at head height at the base of the stair,
coalescing into the chape of a skull surrounded by blue flames!

Oren, several steps up, brings his magic sword down atop the skull with a chopping motion.

ooc: Skill 15, +1 for height advantage (assuming 2-3 feet difference), -5 for the SM of a skull = 11. Hit.

8 cutting damage + any weird sword bonuses.


[Private to GM: 14:52, Today: Secret Roll: Oren rolled 9 using 3d6.  attack-15 -5 SM +1 above = 11.
14:54, Today: Oren rolled 8 using 1d6+2 ((6)).]

In reply to flaming skull (msg # 206):

Kirpich fling his stone missile, but is so focussed on missing his friends that he missed the target as well.

"Club, bring glory to Grom today and help remove this abomination..."

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 208):

The stone missile clatters down the hall. The blade, however, disrupts the hazy apparition where it passes through. The shimmering skull appears a bit lessened, but dives at Oren, just missing him. He feels the chill of its passage.

Danos takes aim with an arrow.

In reply to Danos (msg # 210):

Kirpich casts a different spell.

[Private to GM: Dispel Magic, targeting the skull, rolled 4 under skill.]
This message was last edited by the player at 18:33, Wed 08 Mar 2017.

Oren swings the blade again.

ooc: 08:53, Today: Oren rolled 11 using 3d6.  attack-15 -5 SM +1 above = 11.

Damage: 08:54, Today: Oren rolled 3 using 1d6+2 ((1)) plus whatever magic bonuses

In reply to Oren (msg # 212):

The Skull spiriot again wavers, looking diminished after being struck; the life force sustaining it cannot be dispelled.

Stringfellow moves up to get a clear shot.

The arrow flies past the tiny target, barely missing.

In reply to Stringfellow Hill (msg # 214):

Frustrated, Kirpich goes back to what works. He creates another stone missile.

[Private to GM: Rolled 8 under skill, 2d+2]

Danos continues to aim.

Oren swings again, missing this time.

ooc: 08:53, Today: Oren rolled 13 using 3d6.  attack-15 -5 SM +1 above = 11.

In reply to Oren (msg # 217):

As Oren misses, it comes in close, burning him with cold.

[Private to Oren: you take 2pts toxic burning damage]

Oren keeps his distance from the skull, keeping away from its horrible aura. He swung at it again, missing again.

ooc: 13:02, Today: Oren rolled 9 using 3d6.  dodge-11.
13:02, Today: Oren rolled 12 using 3d6.  attack-15 -5 SM +1 above = 11

Oren, Let me have the sword and take mine ... I may be able to do better...

"I appreciate the offer, but I'm disinclined to disarm myself for even a few moments when face to face with a deadly skulls spirit."

ooc: Oren's Broadsword skill is 15. Is yours much higher?

Danos has an insight into how diffuse injury tolerance works, and lowers his bow.

In reply to Danos (msg # 222):

"I could turn it, but it would likely only come back at a more inconvenient time."

He says, innefectively throwing another stone missile down the corridor in his effort to ensure he misses Oren.

In reply to Danos (msg # 222):

In the absence of significant area affect spells, arrows can still damage diffuse foes, as can ordainary weapons... just not do a lot of damage.

Stringfellow takes the time to carefully aim at the small target, his arrow seems to pass through the corner of it with little effect.

[Private to GM: 00:23, Today: Stringfellow Hill rolled 11 using 3d6.  Bow 12.]

In reply to Stringfellow Hill (msg # 225):

Marlena casts a spell, with her usual scatter of green sparks, and the
flames around the skull seem to fade out, leaving a faintly glowing image of a skull floating in front of Oren.

In reply to Marlena DuBois (msg # 226):

"Oren, if you inna going to strike it, let me close enough. With the fire out we should be able to wear it down"

If it gets close enough, Syvanus will take a swipe at it with his sword.




[Private to GM: If needed 10:37, Today: Syvanus rolled 8 using 1d6+2.  Damage.
10:37, Today: Syvanus rolled 13 using 3d6.  Swing.  by 4:

Oren gave the skull a solid thwap.

ooc:12:47, Today: Oren rolled 8 using 1d6+2.
12:47, Today: Oren rolled 11 using 3d6.  Skill 15 -5 SM +1 elevation = 11.

In reply to Oren (msg # 229):

Kirpich urges club to try to crush it as he summons a stone missile.

[Private to GM: Rolled 11 under skill for stone missile. 2d+2 damage for no energy loss, can he make it a magical missile rather than a larger one?]

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 230):

The skull spirt wavers slightly with each strike.


[Private to Kirpich Rockson: there is no such option. Your spell creates a ball of stone that does crushing damage. There is no way to modify it, missile spells are not subject to spell effects like ghost weapon]

In reply to Narrator (msg # 231):

Snorri cleaves through the phantom with his axe, doing further disruption. Club swings and misses.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 232):

Kirpich again tries to throw a stone missile, and again so concerned about missing his friends he misses the skull.

"Keep at it club..." he encourages.

Syvanus takes another swing at it when opportunity presents itself.






[Private to GM: 10:35, Today: Syvanus rolled 8 using 1d6+2.  Damage.
10:34, Today: Syvanus rolled 13 using 3d6.  Swing. Exact same numbers as last time... ]

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 234):

Syvanus'blade passes tbrough it, making it flicker, but it still has some faint substance to it.

Oren brought his magic sword around again, hoping to finish the job once and for all.

ooc:
20:43, Today: Oren rolled 10 using 3d6.
Hit
20:43, Today: Oren rolled 6 using 1d6+2.
6 cutting damage

In reply to Oren (msg # 236):

The skull seemes diminished, but could do with a few more strikes...





Ooc: it is diffuse, so while it is taking damage, it isn't taking much, but it does take more from the magic sword.

In reply to flaming skull (msg # 237):

Frustrated, Kirpich prays for better ways to aim his stone missile.

"Keep it up, Club"

[Private to GM: Wanting to prepare to get perk Psychic Guidnce for Stone Missile when I get a cp.]

Oren swung at the skull, missing the small target.

In reply to Oren (msg # 239):

Club swung and missed, and once Oren was clear, Snorri cleaved through it. It is definitely looking the worse for wear.

Syvanus also takes a swing when it s close and he has an opportunity...





[Private to GM:  10:42, Today: Syvanus rolled 4 using 1d6+2.
10:42, Today: Syvanus rolled 15 using 3d6.  Swing. this one is iffy, skill is 17]

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 241):

Syvanus misses due to size of target. Snorri steps back and waits for a clear shot.


Occ size mod is -5. Every bit helps...



Also the Shevnian writing on that seal and on the skull Identifies this place as origibnally being the forttress of Jedovatý, the ancient wizard who created the wand you guys are carrying.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 242):

Who is carrying the wand?

ooc: You are.

In reply to Oren (msg # 244):

Oh, then Kirpich will pull out the wand cast Dispel magic on the runes.

[Private to GM: Rolled 11 under skill!]

What does it do again? lol

ooc: Controls earth elementals. You want it for your church, but as treasure recovered by the party we are all entitled to a share of its value. So if you break it, you bought it, and have to compensate the rest of us for its loss. There was a huge argument about this. :D

In reply to Oren (msg # 246):

Oh, yeah, remember that one. Edit previous post...he would not get that blaspemous thing out!

Stringfellow aims for several seconds at the skull before attempting his next shot.

[Private to GM: 22:56, Today: Stringfellow Hill rolled 12 using 3d6.  Bow.]

In reply to Stringfellow Hill (msg # 248):

As soon as Stringfellow fires his arrow, Snorri swings again. The skull spurit is just fluckering and faint now...

Syvanus takes a quick swing after Snorri...





[Private to GM: 12:25, Today: Syvanus rolled 5 using 1d6+2.

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 250):

The phantom fades and flickers, a shriek echoing as it disappears!

In reply to Narrator (msg # 251):

And the Dispel magic on the runes?

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 252):

The runes are not near, these were the adamantine seals that you passed earlier, and in one case tried to excavate. If you wish, you can return to cast the spell there.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 253):

He will head back to try that on the glyphs...

Oren watches Kirpich wander off without saying anything, and doesn't say anything either.

In reply to Oren (msg # 255):

Marlena is holding a light spell by the rest of the party, what light source is Kirpich using?

In reply to Narrator (msg # 256):

With night vision 9, he can see well enough with any residual light others might be using...

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 257):

Once Kirpich gets up the stairs, he will be in total darkness.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 258):

In that case he will return once he reaches the bottom of the stairs and sees the darkness ahead.

"I hope those glyphs do not summon another one of those critters."

"Oh, the glyphs?" Oren said. "Do you suppose we should go up and try to disenchant them or something?"

In reply to Oren (msg # 260):

"That was what I had in mind, but I was hoping to do it quickly without delaying the rest of you. If we get another skull then I would suggest we do that, but until we know what the glyphs do, we may be wasting our time."

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 261):

There is a faint sound from further down the corridor.

Oren sighed and handed Kirpich one of his torches. "Hey, if it's another skull spirit run on back and take care of that."

In reply to Oren (msg # 263):

There is a faint rythmic metallic sound echoing from up the hallway.

Maybe another armored guy...

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 265):

Kirpich did not take the torch for now.

"Hang on to it, it does not sound like the last creature...."

He summons another stone missile.

[Private to GM: Rolled about 7 or 8 under skill (cant remember...very slow internet connection to check]

Danos draws an arrow, and takes aim once whatever creature that's approaching emerges from the darkness.

In reply to Danos (msg # 267):

Six skeletons in well rusted armor approach, in two by two lockstep
formation. They carry axes and shields.
This message was last updated by the player at 17:18, Thu 30 Mar 2017.

In reply to Skeletal warrior (msg # 268):

Kirpich slings another stone missile at the approaching group, being careful to miss his friends.

"Club, more work for you to do!"

[Private to GM: Rolled 4 over attack skill, any chance of hitting a different skeleton?]

"Oh boy, this doesn't look good."

Stringfellow swaps his bow for his blade against the skeletons.

Arrgh! Something about this area vaguely tickles my memory of something, but for the life of me I cannot think of what that is.  A story or tale, some song from the past, I don't know."

Syvanus also readies his sword.

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 271):

Snorri charges forward and cleaves down the lead skeleton on the left.
It clatters to pieces, but the others advance as if it hadn't fallen.

Stringfellow dashes forward and attacks the skeleton next to the one Snorri struck down.
"Smash them!"

[Private to GM:

22:16, Today: Stringfellow Hill rolled 5 using 1d6+1.  damage.]

In reply to Stringfellow Hill (msg # 273):

Kirpich summons another stone missile...

[Private to GM: I was going to use staff, but he has no skill in it, nor a staff! So he will summon another stone missile...]

In reply to Stringfellow Hill (msg # 273):

Stringfellow clips the center skelly, splitting its armor and unbalancing
It. The corridor is wide enough for one more melee combatant, or space for two missile attacks.

Oren has no room to move forward and attack, so he lets Stringfellow handle it.

Syvanus steps up beside Stringfellow and swings at the same skeleton.




[Private to GM:  20:20, Today: Syvanus rolled 8 using 1d6+2.  Sword Damage.
20:19, Today: Syvanus rolled 8 using 3d6.  Swing.]

ooc: Oops, misread that as "room for one melee attacker" not "one more."

In reply to Oren (msg # 278):

Kirpich sighs, and has Club stand behind Stringfellow so he can replace one of those atb the front line, where he should be, when the one of the others are injured. He holds holds his stone missile and stands behind Club for when there is a gap.

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 279):

Syvanus takes out the  one Stringellow started on. Currently, Snorri, Syvanus and Stringfellow are front line. Missile fire can be handled if you call  and take wait. (The teamwork pperk would make this function better)

When the next row comes within range Syvanus will take which ever is closer/Faster to step up ... it's not a good swing...





[Private to GM: 08:52, Today: Syvanus rolled 17 using 3d6.  Swing. just made it... but it's a bad crit. ]

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 281):

Kirpich will call out that he has a stone to throw, and wait for the opportunity to do so.

[Private to GM: Rolled 2 under attack skill once he has the chance to throw it, 13 cr damage...at whichever he has a clear shot at.]

First chance, Syvanus will back out and press his back up against the wall.

As soon as Syvanus is out of the way, Oren will step in to attack the front line.

In reply to Oren (msg # 284):

After allowing Kirpich's stone missile through?

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 285):

Syvanus had a simple miss with the 17 due to great skill. Oren, make a per roll, as you seem hyperfocused to get in the spot. Make the roll and you can hesitate, and let the shot go past.

ooc:

Made it. So after Kirpich's shot, I'll go.

Stringfellow does his best to keep the skeletons' attention while Syvanus moves back.  He swings at the nearest one, attempting to force it backwards into the others and mess up their movement.

In reply to Stringfellow Hill (msg # 288):

Kirpich's missle catches one squarely in the chest, shattering its ribs and spine and collapsing it.

Stringfellow cuts into the thighbone of another, causing it to falter and drop forward.

Oren whacks one of the skeletons with his sword.

OOC - There were originally 6...and three are down as I count... did more appear?

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 293):

Corrected.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 294):

Kirpich holds his attack until he gets a clear shot again.

[Private to GM: Rolled 3 under attack if he has the chance to do so, 13 cr damage.]

Attacking the next skeleton to move up, Stringfellow swings at the undead creature.

20:03, Today: Stringfellow Hill rolled 3 using 1d6+1.  damage.  ]

Syvanus stands ready behind the line and out of the line of fire, prepared to step in and replace anyone who needs it.

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 297):

As Stringellow  tries to hit the next skeleton in line (and succeeds,
with a glancing blow) the broken one on the ground siezes hold of hit
boot, and tries to pull itself up his leg!

Oren kicks at the skeleton grabbing Stringfellow's boot!

15:38, Today: Oren rolled 9 using 3d6. Hit.

And Syvanus wants to know why you are playing with his boots... ;-) ... think it's Stringfellow you want to help.

ooc: Fixed!

In reply to Oren (msg # 301):

Oren stomps it flat! The other two move up, the third is still trying to
push past another crawler to the side.

In reply to Skeletal warrior (msg # 302):

Kirpich waits for an opening for his missile, and Club waits for a target to come within reach...

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 303):

Syvanus, Stringfellow and Oren are blocking club from being effective. It is quite crowded, as Snorri is in the mix as well. For any missile attacks, folks need to back up.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 304):

Hence we are waiting...

In reply to Narrator (msg # 304):

Syvanus has his back to the wall trying to open a path.

Oren swung his sword with skill and determination.

ooc: 11:48, Today: Oren rolled 5 using 3d6.
Critical Hit! 8: strike does double normal shock.


11:50, Today: Oren rolled 7 using 1d6+6. Damage
That's a typo; it's d6+2 for 3 damage. Literally the least effective crit possible.

In reply to Oren (msg # 307):

Thankfully, the sword adds a little extra, and the skeleton loses an arm

Moving a bit to the side if he can, Stringfellow attempts to step past the lead skeletons to allow a better shot for his companions behind him. As he does, he slashes his saber at the third one attempting to move up.

That skeleton is spun, and is now facing Stringellow,  and it has it backs to its fellows.
Standing: that wounded one,
one armless one
One intact skeleton
One still moving half skeleton

As Syvanus and Stringfellow clear a shot, Danos releases his arrow at the intact skeleton's skull.

Hit by 4, less any penalties.

In reply to Danos (msg # 311):

The skeleton goes down with Danos'shot, and Kirpich's missile crashes into the chest of the one armed skelly, knocking it down.

there are a few twitching crawlers, but none standing.

Now time for club to finish things.

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 317):

"Indeed, Club. If you please, once you have room."

He steps back to give him room.

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 318):

The club of Grom goes about this thing it excells at, the smashing of bone.

In reply to earth elemental (msg # 319):

The squad of six has been dispatched. What next?

In reply to Narrator (msg # 320):

Continuing on? Scouts?

Kirpich will direct Club to begin making his way down the corridor to where we have not been before.

Stringfellow examines the crumbled remains of the undead to see if there is anything unusual.

In reply to Stringfellow Hill (msg # 322):

There is some ruined ancient armor, mostly rust, and six axes and shields in very poor condition.

"Can't be far now. Let's move on."

In reply to Oren (msg # 324):

The corridor continues, coming to a short flight of stairs heading down.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 325):

Kirpich and his charges follow the scouts. Club follows them closely.

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 326):

The space below is colder. A set of double doors are ahead.

Oren continues on.

Stringfellow follows along, keeping an eye out behind them.

In reply to Stringfellow Hill (msg # 329):

Kirpich and his charges also continue on, warily.

"Are those doors locked?"

In reply to Danos (msg # 331):

They seem a little stiff, but are not locked.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 332):

"Do you want me to dim the light, or brighten it up?"

"Lighter, please. This could be it, fellows... be ready. Snorri, me, and the elemental up front. Syvanus and Stringfellow behind, ready to fire past us with your bows. Then Kirpich, Danos, and Marlena to offer support."

Syvanus sheathes his sword and readies his bow...

In reply to Syvanus (msg # 335):

Marlena casts a brighter light spell and lets the other fade out.

In reply to Marlena DuBois (msg # 336):

Kirpich directs Club to follow the directions others give unless the contradict himself. He then summons a stone missile...

Swapping to his bow, Stringfellow watches Oren, waiting for his signal.

Once everybody is ready, Oren instructs Club to open the doors, and stands, sword ready.

In reply to Oren (msg # 339):

Marching order for two yards wide?


[Private to Danos; Syvanus; Marlena Dubois: a glaring white light the rest of the group don't seem to see pour out of the doorway as it is opened.]
