_{"Lovely, we're not prepared for were creatures."}

The maid shrugs. "Maybe they're not prepared for you. Hey," she says to the looks you give her. "I'm just trying to be positive here."

"Vendra!" bellows the large one in a voice that manages to be both squeak and roar. "No more games! Giz wants ya!" He spits and mutters, "Hell if I know why..."

If you're attacking, roll init. The wererats are across the street or about twenty feet away. One large one, two medium, and one pipsqueak,

"Ahh, so I was right, you ARE Vendra. You'll hang for the murder of that woman and defrauding all of those people." Vaddis looks at the four, "Do you wish to hang with her as accomplices to her murder? Vendra, I arrest you in the name of the Queen!" He spits at the last, _{"Bug must have flown in my mouth."}

13:51, Today: Vaddis Sonaden rolled 18 using 1d20+3. Bluff.

Selvin, without turning away from the wererats or stopping his angry/hungry look, muttered a questions out of the side of his mouth to his team. "Are we fightin' or runnin'?"

Vendra smiles and grabs her shawl. She pulls it off and tuns into the woman you saw before. She licks her lips, glances left, glances right.

A cloud overhead drifts over the sun.

Otherwise, everything is still.

Vendra casts the deciding vote. She holds up her shawl to "Here big fella. Put this on. It'll look quite nice on you..."

Vaddis, make a Will save. Everyone else roll init. Izick, you can use the roll you already made. I'm going on 10.

"Use your parlor tricks on someone who cares witch, surrender or die!"

Selvin growled, "Don't let her get away!" And his tail swished in anticipation, complete with the new stinger sticking out of it.

And with that he charged one of the smaller wererats with a howl.

09:00, Today: Selvin Larst rolled 15 using 1d20+2. Initiative.
09:02, Today: Selvin Larst rolled 23,26,25 using d20+7,d20+7,d20+7. Charge Pounce - Claw, Claw, Bite.
09:03, Today: Selvin Larst rolled 10 using 1d20+7. Stinger - it's new so I forgot. 09:04, Today: Selvin Larst rolled 6,4,6 using d6+2,d6+2,d6+2. Damage - Claw, Claw, Bite.

Vendra groans as nearby Izzick begins chanting and Tarrov  starts singing. "Fine! I surrender! Now get me outta here!"

Selvin slams into one of the medium sized ones. The trusty claw/caw/bite combo works, tearing tufts of fur snd skin from his opponent. His shiny new tail misses. The wererat replies by sinking his teeth into etheral skin 8 dam Selvin to your buddy

The larger wererat ignores the melee and begins to rush Venda and  Vaddis.  The other medium sizd one is tearing a path at Izzick and Tarrov 

Izzy, I just assumed you'd be casting. Feel free to call another action if you preferl

Selvin winced as the eidolon was hit, "Zak" letting out a small roar of injury. He directed a flurry of attacks at the wererat, hoping to drop it quickly so he could try and heal his ally.

22:33, Today: Selvin Larst rolled 24,25,6,17 using d20+5,d20+5,d20+5,d20+5. Claw,Claw,Bite,Stinger.
22:35, Today: Selvin Larst rolled 10 using 1d20+5. Crit confirm.

08:58, Today: Vaddis Sonaden rolled 8 using 1d8+7. longsword damage Smite Evil!

As Izzick's spell finished, his finger aimed at the larger of the wererats, letting out a sickly green stream. Though it seemed to veer off from it's intended target.

<orange>Casting Ray of Enfeeblement.

13:09, Sat 25 Oct 2014: Izzick rolled 5 using 1d20+4 ((1)).<orange>

Don't forget to factor in Tarrov's song. I did in the rolls. Sadly, it wasn't much help. But if it makes you feel any better, my dice still love you guys bunches.

The rat man bats Zac's stinger aside Selvin, which leaves him open for your claws. You manage to gouge him, but it is like tearing at a sack of wet cement. He bleeds red though.

The one charging the bard and sorcerer leaps aside as Tarrov's whip cracks at the place he was. He lands nimbly and begins charging at you again.

King Rat ducks under the swish of Vaddis' blade. He tries to turn it into an uppercut/slash but the paladin steps back with ease. Over Vaddis' shoulder comes a beam of light. It strikes King Rat in the eyes and he swears. "Damn Bitch!"

Vendra shrugs at whatever look the paladin throws at her. "Look...I'm helping..."

Selvin restrained a sigh as his attacks didn't seem to be hurting the wererat as much as they should. Maybe it had to do with their ability to shapeshift or something. He kept up his flurry of attacks, however, hoping to wear the thing down!


02:00, Today: Selvin Larst rolled 10,23,23,23 using d20+6,d20+6,d20+6,d20+6. Claw,Claw,Bite,Stinger - attack vs wererat.
02:00, Today: Selvin Larst rolled 5,6,7 using d6+3,d6+3,d6+3. Claw,Bite,Stinger - damage.

Things were going from bad to worse.  Tarrov had been embarrassed that he hadn't seen through Vendra's deception, but a little embarrassment was pretty small potatoes when compared with an attack by a committed clan of wererats.  The bard backed away from the onrushing wererat, his whip snaking out in an attempt to bring it to the ground . . .

OOC:
22:33, Today: Tarrov Garrick rolled 13 using 1d20+6. Trip Attack with Whip.

---

The rat charging Izzick and Tarrov again dances to one side to avoid the whip. He backs up and takes a few steps before leaping. He seems to have decided just to jump at you rather than try charging.

Selvin's rat moves his head to avoid being bitten. The Elf/Zac slam their claws upwards while the stinger slams downwards. All pointy edges connect under the wererat's chin and above his snout. He goes down with his throat torn open.

King Rat tries to dance backwards but being blinded, he manages to just present an openong for Vaddis. The paladin strikes downward and manages a savage blow on the big wererat's shoulder. King Rat is still up though.

"Come on now," Izzick shouts, primarily to himself over his allies as he begins to chant a newer spell, it's arcane words just ever so slightly more complex than those of the enfeebling ray. The orb of fire appearing in his hands blasted forth like a beam of searing flames, scorching the larger were-rat.


02:17, Today: Izzick rolled 16 using 1d20+5. Scorching Ray.
16 touch attack for:

02:20, Today: Izzick rolled 14 using 4d6.
14 damage

When the wererat he is fighting goes down, Selvin whirls and charges into the back of the King Rat with a growl. He doesn't know if these things heal or not, but he wants to be quick.

OOC: Not sure if I'd get flanking so I didn't add that in, but if I did then +2 to each.
10:59, Today: Selvin Larst rolled 11,17,26,23 using d20+8,d20+8,d20+8,d20+8. Charging pounce - Claw,Claw,Bite,Stinger.
11:01, Today: Selvin Larst rolled 8,4,4 using d6+3,d6+3,d6+3. Damage, Claw, Bite, Stinger.

The thin beam of intense heat lances from Izzick's thick fingers and strikes the wererat in midair. He screams and lands with a thud between the half orc and the bard. A huge ugly burn mark is laced across his chest.

Zac's mouth and stinger hit the wererat at the same time one of Sevlin's claws and Vaddis blade strike. King Rat falls over clutching his chest.

As the final wererat falls, you all take a deep breath. And you look over at Vendra. And then you look around for Vendra.

Oh. There she is. Climbing up the side of the building. Making good time too. She is moving like she was born adhering to the walls. Vendra's already passed the second floor and halfway up the third.

Vaddis quickly draws his crossbow and fires, the bolt thwacking and sticking in the wall next to Vendra! "Come back down or the next one is in your spine!"

07:56, Today: Vaddis Sonaden rolled 11 using 1d20+5. Crossbow Attack.
07:58, Today: Vaddis Sonaden rolled 11 using 1d20+3. Bluff.

"Wow, I really hate this woman." Selvin then spoke loudly so Vendra could hear him. "If you don't start back down then I'm goin' t'start comin' after you an' if that happens I WILL claw you up, honey." Then he quickly cast a spell, and the 'tears' in his eidolon tiger suit closed over.

OOC: No bluff roll needed as he is angry enough to slice her, just a tiny bit, if she doesn't comply, lol.

Casting Rejuvenate Eidolon Lesser on his eidolon.
07:59, Today: Selvin Larst rolled 8 using 1d10+4. Rejuvenate Eidolon Lesser.

"This woman."  Tarrov looked up in consternation.  He immediately waved his hand and casts a spell to make the climbing more difficult.  If his last effort didn't work on Vendra, maybe this one would . . .

OOC:  Casts Grease on and above area where Vendra is climbing.

"OH COME ON!!!!" Vendra screams, sliding slowly down the wall. "You've got the wand! Whaddya need me for???!!!"

She surrenders to inevitable as she comes down the last ten feet of the wall. "Damn....I woulda gotten away with it if it weren't for you meddling adventurers..."

You may respond to Vendra as you wish. You have her shawl which acts like a hat of disguise but only turns the wearer into one shape...the shape of the maid she was posing as before. You also have her wand. Cure Disease with ten uses. Lastly she has a store of purple potions. Please remember purple potions on my games are always healing. In this case three doses Cure Light and two doses Cure Serious. I'll let ya'll level up and then we'll move onto the next section tomorrow.

Selvin let out a loud growl. As he did so, something happened to his ectoplasmic ally 'Zak'. The stinger on the tail grew a bit smaller but then a pair of large wings sprouted out of the back. The wings looked similar to a bat, and they flapped slowly, as if testing themselves out.

"You MURDERED someone! Probably more than one person! You deserve to be punished!"

"Yeah yeah..." Vendra says as she picks herself up off the ground. "How many guys have you guys murdered? No. Lemme guess. It was all done in the name of 'Justice'..."

She sighs. "Whatever. Jus'...take me to prison."

Kroft was delighted to take Vendra off your hands. She managed to get her to trial before the day was through. For once, the system works. Vendra won't be ruining anymore lives ever again.

You feel weary and walk quietly back to the Inn. There's a message waiting for you from Vencarlo. He says to meet him by the river tomorrow morning. He's made all the arrangements. Looks like you're going to see what lays below the ocean.

Please move to the new thread Wreck of the Direption. Thanks.
