They Who Dwell in Shadow (ooc and questions lll)

The suddenly generous druid will clean this mess up......hopefully.

You ain't kidding!

Your post should get rule of cool bonuses.

The holy symbol of Triskelion:



Actually the holy symbol of Trithereon is a triskelion (a symbol based on three bending legs)



But only specialty priests of Triskelion get a weapon proficiency in giant can opener.

Nice get out of jail free card, OM! Please deduct all potions from your inventory list. Thanks.

How far can Urdur throw a flask of oil?

Is Urdur's cloak still covered in oil (from this post: viewtopic.php?f=265&t=5994&start=280)?

I'll rule the oil on his cloak has evaporated by now.
And, from the DMG p. 64:

Range: The range of all such container missiles is 3”. Beyond 1” is medium, and beyond 2” is long (-2 and -5 “to hit” respectively).

If you throw the oil, please:

• -Include in your die roll macro whether it's lit or not when thrown.
  -Let me know if you still throw the oil if the unspeakable thing closes with you before you can act, and this becomes a melee. (You too Telkis, if you fire arrows). Thanks!

I will take any cred I can get!

All potions have been reluctantly removed from Bo's sheet. I sure hope that means it will actually work.

With that, the druid immediately Polymorphs himself into a majestic black Pegasus. Crouching down, he lets the two females climb on while the others grab ahold and float weightlessly behind. The pegasus takes off into the night sky with his friends in tow, hopefully before the cultists are able to catch up to them.

This is ridiculous, and also the best thing that's ever happened. I love this so much.

I tried to do a quick search and review. The Gades were missing, yes?

[Inferno]

That's right.

An abridged account from the the DM Adventure Log, with links to the harrowing events:

The Story So Far:
Here shall be the account of the finals days of our doomed heroes:

...

Chapter 3a: The Forsaken Village:

• Day 4:
  • The heroes escape the Dim Forest and enter Briarsgate.
    ....the Gade Family warn Grothnak, Pelias and Telkis of the terrors of Briarsgate.

...

Chapter 5: The Doom That Came to Briarsgate:

• Day 4, continued:
  • The adventurers escape the Inn, encounter Avril, and return to the Gades' farmhouse to find the family has been forcibly taken from their home.

It is now the early hours of Day 8.

Well dang, she provided a ton of information!

Agreed. Great stuff Rob

And paid a heavy price for it.

+2!

I think now it has become obvious, going out the window was the better move.

What's the old saying, someone told me I was delusional... it almost made me fall off my pegasus!

[OGRE MAGE]

I don't recall that one.

Thanks everyone! Just trying to keep most of us around for a while longer.

[rredmond]

This half-elven thief/MU, for one, appreciates that!

As one of my last statements in this game (due to probable death) I'll admit you were right. Telkis immediately regrets his decision. I'll console myself by believing we couldn't all ride the Majestic Pegasus.

Hiding in the basement was a fine idea. Opening that door was...not.

[rredmond]

Hey an effing Bogasus (:lol:) saved us, so you never know - there's gotta be a way to get out of there alive. Or at least mostly alive.

But yeah, our escape plan relied on a small group. Heck if Hoom was still with us, I'm not sure it could've been pulled off. Good luck fellows!

[rredmond]

It's not often I say something like this, but here's hoping you underground guys get 1's on your d20 rolls!

[Inferno]

Hoom Feethos:
OOC: Have I given my pursuers the slip or they still on my trail?

Hoom doesn't know. But the lanterns of his hunters are still near the Temple of Merikka, over 200 feet away.

[OGRE MAGE]

Yaaa!

The rations trick worked!
