Aldous staggers back from the undead rat, dropping his sword from his swelling and bleeding hand as he retreats (his light, however, he keeps).  "Chrise a'mitey!  'E go'me gud."

[Private to GM: DR 2 on the arm, 2 gets through becoming 4 (imp).  2 points for poison, leaves 2 HP (Aldous was only mostly healed after the rat incident earlier today/2-3 months ago).  1 FP is trivial by comparison.
17:49, Today: Aldous Hack rolled 15 using 3d6.  HT vs Maned Rat poison (10).  Looks like more poison damage soon.  Tell me when to roll HT again.
17:53, Today: Aldous Hack rolled 14 using 3d6.  DX to hang onto his sword (sword arm wounded and poisoned).]

18:29, Today: Kazimir Yurick rolled 17 using 3d6.  DX ~ 13 ( dumping holy water over the undead maned rat ).
(LOL!)

In reply to Kazimir Yurick (msg # 883):

got some in your eye- eeew that smells like piss!


Sven has avoided anthing more thsn the first dose of poison, but it is eating at Adolus! Anyone have first aid? or something to help neutralize the poison?

the spear thrust has gravely injured the thing, but it is still resisting and squealing!

[Private to Narrator: -4 out of -20]

OK, Thorg tries for it's vitals.

[Private to GM:  13:38, Today: Thorg rolled 8 using 3d6.  Spear Thrust - vitals (-3)  by 5 so should do it
13:38, Today: Thorg rolled 5 impaling using 1d6+3.  Silvered Spear Damage.]

Aldous backs against the corridor wall, as far away from the rat as he can stagger before his knees buckle and he sits down, gently setting his lantern beside him.

"I don' fe'l s'gud."

His head falls forward onto his chest.

[Private to GM: 17:29, Today: Aldous Hack rolled 11 using 3d6.  HT vs Maned Rat poison (10).  Blessing of St. Pyr makes that a success, no margin.
Another 2 HP before that, though, right?  Brings to 0.
17:34, Today: Aldous Hack rolled 13 using 3d6.  HT to stay conscious (10).]

In reply to Thorg (msg # 885):

the dead thing writhes  on the spear point, barely together but still moving!

I'll keep it pinned if someone wants to use the holy water on it.

In reply to Thorg (msg # 888):

Aine knows of a neutralize poison skill, but she has not yet learn it, so she instead tries first aid [Private to GM: Rolled 1 under, she cannot cast a spell off default, can she?]

Kazimir blinks and makes a face.
22:51, Today: Kazimir Yurick rolled 11 using 3d6.  DX ~ 13 ( dumping holy water over the undead maned rat ).
"On the house!"
*Bloop. Glug-glug-glug.....*

Hetty will aid her first aid, with her knowledge of poisons.
23:01, Today: Hetilda Yurick rolled 11 using 3d6.  Poisons ~ 14.

Nana follows her mother.
"You alright,Sven?"

"Yeah..I think so. But I feel about half dead!"
Sven retreats, watching the vials contents begin to splatter all over the thing writhing under Thorg's spear...

In reply to Thorg (msg # 888):

the creature shifts- make a ST roll to hold it still.


meanwhile,  the holy water,(which smells like pee) does nothing.

roll for first aid


this type of poison lingers in the tissue,  it can be treated with mildly acidic substances, and salt placed onthe wound to draw it out.

In reply to Giant maned rats (msg # 894):

"Perhaps you should use the holy water to clean the wound...."

She creates another 2d icy sphere...

"It's piss! We've been had!Let us remember who sold us these, when we deal with our current problems..."

18:19, Today: Hetilda Yurick rolled 7 using 3d6.  esoteric medicine ~ 13 or less.

Thorg makes a determined effort to hold the thing pinned down.

[Private to GM:   15:24, Today: Thorg rolled 12 using 3d6.  ST determined. unfortunately his ST is 11 .
If he needs a defense, he uses his shield to block; skill 12 -  15:28, Today: Thorg rolled 10 using 3d6.  Block.]

18:36, Today: Kazimir Yurick rolled 7 using 1d6+1.  longsword thrust 1d+1 impaling.

18:34, Today: Kazimir Yurick rolled 10 using 3d6.  broadsword ~ 13 (thrusting, at 2 hex reach).
Kazimir uses his longsword's reach to keep away from the quills, thrusting deeply into the thing's immobilized body...
"Arrghh!"

In reply to Kazimir Yurick (msg # 899):

and with that, it dies.


Hettie is able to stop the poison from spreading.

"Let's go Home!"

"To heal up.."

In reply to Svendegard Yurick (msg # 902):

"And perhaps replace that holy water..."

She looks around for another target for her icy sphere...

"Who sold us bottled piss??"

"Hey, at least we found out now..before we really needed it!"

OOC: any HP regained from First Aid?  Else Aldous remains slumped against the wall next to his lantern -- still breathing, seeming in less distress, but clearly not conscious.
