In reply to Brodak (msg # 422):

They seem more like cuffs, and each has a loop where a chain might be attached... the metal is surprisingly light and untarnished!

In reply to Narrator (msg # 424):

"What odd cuffs...may I have a closer look?"

Clarence want to look closely at the cuffs to work out what they might be used for.

In reply to Clarence Montague (msg # 425):

The cuffs look like they might be part of shackles... they seem strong and light, make an armory, connoisseur weapons or armor, or metallurgy roll at default if need be.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 426):

Clarence weighs them up with interest...

[Private to GM: Nicest roll all day! Rolled 6 under IQ...]

Mario looks once more at the man.  "Can you walk, or must we carry you?  Oh, and do you have a name?"

In reply to Clarence Montague (msg # 427):

The cuffs are made of orichalcum, and probably worth about $1500 each!

In reply to Mario Crowfoot (msg # 428):

"I... I don't feel so good. I am Alaric."

His accent seems old fashioned. He may have been down here for a very long time. He also looks like he needs to be half carried.

Hardly a surprise, let us get you out of here.

Jareth unties the wounded guy.

"Right, got all the weapons gathered up?  T'en let's get back."



OOC:  Besides the Wish Sword, what else did we pull out him?

In reply to Jareth Mooncalled (msg # 432):

Clarence puts them away for later, and assists in gathering up the weapons.

"Well, Alaric, I'm happy to see you well enough to respond.  Let's see if we can get you on your feet; we can get you to a temple much faster that way than if we have to carry you.

"Do you happen to remember the date?"

In reply to Mario Crowfoot (msg # 434):

"I think....CMIII, three years past the novicentum."





R
That hardly seems right.,,,

"Ya've missed some time, but don't worry on that right yet.  Get ya upstairs, let ya rest an figure out which temple get ya fixed up at."

If everything appears gathered up and everyone appears ready, Jareth will lead the way back.

In reply to Jareth Mooncalled (msg # 436):

"There is something unseen near here."

"Look lively, folks."  Mario can't resist looking all around, bow following his gaze as far as he can twist his torso and right hand seeking the fletching of his single arrow (ignoring the two silver ones in the second quiver, for the moment).

OOC: Are we on Christian era dating imported by the Romans?  If so, what's our current year?

In reply to Mario Crowfoot (msg # 438):

By the reckoning of the One True Church of the Tripartate God, it is 1388.

Our man has been down here for a very long time.



Brodak feels his Hackles rise

Brodak comes on Guard ...  Sumpin' not right

In reply to Brodak (msg # 440):

Clarence begins looking around, but is not really sure what he is looking for. He puts away what he has picked up and begins to take out his lantern, waving it around.

[Private to GM: Rolled 3 over perception...]

"Show yourself, whatever you are."  Mario continues scanning the room.  "Is that door latched?"

In reply to Mario Crowfoot (msg # 442):

There is a sudden stench of brimstone and rot.

A familiar, if disturbing, creature manifests.

https://drive.google.com/open?...Ue8hmOVfcvr0LxxKJ-Rz


Its face is marred with an angry purple scar, and one eye is missing. Likewise its unwholesome flesh has a deep purple pulsing band of new warty flesh accross the chest where Brodak's axe had once struck it!

In reply to something not right (msg # 443):

"Remarkable! a fourth order infernal entity... and it seems to be perturbed by several of you! You must tell me how this came to pass!"

Brodak sees the unwholesome creature Manifest and immediately moves in and swings



[Private to GM:  19:29, Today: Brodak rolled 10 using 3d6.  Axe swing - Vitals.  by 4 after -2 mod for aimed shot
19:30, Today: Brodak rolled 9 using 2d6+3.  Axe Damage Cutting.]

In reply to Brodak (msg # 445):

The demon, ichor spraying out of its wound even as it struggles to reform, small tubules on either side of the gash reaching toward eachother, Claws at Brodak, gouging him through his armor!
It shrieks (in a most disturbing way)
"!Ze'k mey muta sey" 


[Private to Brodak: That would be 12 cutting before DR!]

In reply to something not right (msg # 446):

Clarence swings at the creature with remarkably little effect...

[Private to GM: Rolled 4 over attack skill...]

Mario pulls one of his silver arrows, nocks and draws, then aims for a heartbeat before loosing at the creature's remaining eye.
