Re: Graveyard Mystery
Spriggy looked around wildly as it became clear his countersong was not working. Drowning out the Word Demon's spell would not be enough of a disruption. For the moment the bard was at a loss for what to do. He quickly thought about what resources they had available to them for inspiration. There was the broken shrine, the rocks and things within the cave itself, some broken wolf bones, Spriggy's own gear which included his rapier and leather armor, adventuring gear, some rations, his songboo-
His songbook!
Spriggy quickly pulled his songbook out, flipped to one of its empty music pages, and began writing down the demon's words phonetically. He even used the note bar to indicate the pitch at which the Word Demon spoke its words. As he wrote the "words" of the demon's chant, Spriggy began chanting in unison, copying the Word Demon's spell as best he could.
If he couldn't counter the foe's incantation, perhaps he could claim it for his own! Luckily he had plenty of experience singing in a language he did not understand. Unfortunately the language he had experience with was much different than this one. He gestured for his companions to hopefully join in to possibly improve the power and harmony of his chant.
Spriggy is essentially trying to wrest control of the spell away from the word demon. If he can't stop the undead from rising and approaching, he at least wants to be the one in charge of the spell if possible.
Seems like another Defy Danger with Cha?
22:47, Today: Spriggy Glompgut rolled 6 using 2d6+2 with rolls of 3,1. Defy Danger +Cha: steal Word Demon's spell.
Nooooo!!! Anyone want to help this time? If not, at least it is yet another XP...
