Cruloc smiles through cracked lips.

Hey everyone,
I'm back. New DM post is up. Thanks for your patience.

Torix for the win!

I'm glad and relieved we've narrowly avoided the second TPK since breakfast!

Do we have a light source, now that the wind is back?

Yes, the same as before: Zahra's glowing Sword of Xuthalhotep and Grigor's enchanted scimitar, which each only illuminates a 10 foot radius in this realm of unnatural darkness.

...he lights a torch and moves toward the entrance to where he remembers Amethu last stood.

That torch won't light in this gale. And Grigor's scimitar is a magic item, forbidden for the Barbarian class to touch (like the Skull Scepter but frankly, things looked pretty desperate).
What would you like to do please?

Thanks!

"the second TPK"
Oh boy.

That torch won't light in this gale.

Noted, and post edited.

Despite his many nights of debauchery and whoring, this is the first time Cruloc has ever felt "dirty".

Once everyone is conscious, we have to decide whether we'd face more wandering monsters staying in the Lost City or making our way back to the fort. Either way, we need some bloomin' downtime.

I suppose it's possible that some of us may go up a level if we go back with our current haul of treasure.

I think once everyone is conscious, the clerics should be able to begin to heal the party. But it'll be three days before everyone is conscious. What will you do for those three days, please?

Happy Easter everyone!

I'll be offline this weekend but back on Monday. If your actions hinge on answers from me, please post if-then orders. Thanks!

I want to be eleventy percent sure on this:

Is the wind blowing now or not?

Hi Yrkoon,
It is blowing, as per here:

The Pict savage slams into the unholy icon with all his primitive ferocity and just manages to topple the towering figure!

It crashes to the stones, shattering! The gale force wind returns in a sudden blast! And with it, all the living dead instantly fall to the ground lifeless!

Hi everyone,
I want to be eleventy percent sure on this...

Cruloc, Torix and Zahra plan to camp in the crypt area for a few days until their friends awaken?

Also...

When time permits, he searches the chamber for valuables. If the chamber has only one exit, he will lock it and suggest they make camp here at least until the wounded awaken.

Cruloc, with the wind extinguishing torches, what's your light source for searching, please?

Also, the chamber has several exits. S = the secret doors that the dead emerged from when the statue was unveiled.



Thoughts?

Thank you!

Torix will vote for following Zahra's plan. As for camping here for several days, he has 3 days of food left.... We have some light from magical weapons, correct?

Hi guys,

Just letting you know that I am bowing out at this stage. No reflection upon either Inferno or my fellow players. I think having Grigor die is a good place to move on.

I have a few things pressing my time and with a few character deaths in other games too, it means I can concentrate more fully on a new rpg I am going to try my hand at GM'ing.

Best of luck in the continuing explorations, I will lurk on the sidelines and encourage you from a distance.

Cheers,

(Greg) Bluetongue

Understandable Bluetongue. GMing does take a lot more time than posting as a player. Good luck with the game, I'm sure it will be a great one.

Yes, but neither Barbarian can use them due to class restrictions.

Good luck, Greg!

Cheers, Greg!

Grigor never lacked enthusiasm. That showed a real love for the game.
