From Kell: [Re: Actions] [First a general reply, then reply to John H's Arawn, then more general reply.] Swearing quietly but excessively even for a guard, Kell... He goes to search the dead Vong, looking for more powders. He also catalogs their weapons, laying them all off the side in a nice pile. Replying to Arawn, "Where? I'll have a look." Using ... Kell also wants to do a detailed inspection of both caves, although with likely limited time that won't happen. He'll take as much time as realistic to search. [Scott - feel free to change the order into whatever fits. I've thrown all these out now knowing which comes first.] GM: Ack. From Z'leyra: [Re: Actions] Z'leyra calls for Will to come over as she digs into her satchel, coming out with a silver goblet and a leather necklace enclosing a large chunk of jade. Giving Will the goblet and then hanging the necklace around his neck she tells him that "This enhanced jade will grant you... She then readies herself again for battle. GM: Ack. -------------------------------------------------------------- [New Stuff] [Augado 10th, 1634TH] [Location: Middle Katai Plains] [ Mountains west of Pamau] [Time: 2:09:21 pm] Swearing quietly but excessively even for a guard, Kell wipes the gore and blood off his face, then cleans his hands on the dead Vong. These clothes are ruined, ruined and spoilt. He can't stand getting coated in gore and blood. "F**** blood everywhere, $%^@" After a few intense seconds, he calms down and looks around, taking in the dead vong, tunnels, and everyone's position. Looking up at Will he quips, "Nice going flyboy," with a big grin on his face. Kiet grips his side checking to ensure his wound is light but his wrist is bruised where the bulk of the heavy armor or cookware, that Will has under his clothing, hit him. Not a wound but it will be a bruise for a short while. For the next ten seconds Will continues to fly around in a circle like a spinning table top kid's wheel. For those who watch it is like some mad man who can't decide to go this way or that. Unali notices him using the flight spell as well but not as skillfully as Nom did. Rather how he used the Vong flying sled thing to fly away but failed. Will finally starting to get a hang of this flying thing, speaks toward Fremea who is a bit away from him. "This flying is fun… I should do it more often." Captain Lin just shakes his head. How could these people be stopped if they can use wind to propel them like a fish through water? Course a good arrow shot in the head should do fine. While Will is playing his imitation of a one armed man in a rowboat, Arawn glances around somewhat perplexed. Arawn looks to Lin who asked about his condition. Like Strie'bog? HE must have turned greener than Strie'bog. "Alright?... Yes," Arawn replied to Lin. He seemed distracted, his furrowed brow indicating that something was lingering in the Alfar's mind. "Something's here... close by." His eyes moved between the opening up ahead and his allies. He then spoke up, enough to be heard but, hopefully, not echo down the tunnel. "I'm not sure what it is but all my senses are warning my something unpleasant is nearby. I usually sense this around the forces of the Eldest Serpent so perhaps they are in league with the Vong. If not, then some other major threat lies perhaps just ahead." Replying to Arawn, "Where? I'll have a look." Using his senses Ha'Kell follows Arawn's direction to see what he can see. But the half-elf can't sense anything but the disgust in his mind at his ruined clothing. He wonders if the Vong have some blood disease he should worry about? He tries not to think of such things. But he soon realizes that his senses aren't as strong as even Fremea's or the Alfar. Maybe if he was closer and above the hole. Farseeker looks to the hole. He doesn't find anything up ahead but the hole at a dead end. Captain Lin scratches his beard and looks around as if confused and missing some information. "Serpent? There are snakes in the tunnel? Old ones? Should be able to be killed easily." Arawn ignores the hapless military man who clearly doesn't have much clue on the gods. But then there is only one god here the Emperor. Poor guy mind washed into thinking such things and not how the true gods are around him. Turning his attention to the fallen human Arawn added, "If he can be revived he may be able to answer some questions. If not then perhaps his spirit may be willing to share. Does he have any clues hidden on him or in the room he came from?" Arawn glances at the sentry post cave. Fremea leans down to the smoking body and inspects his person. He does have a hidden small blade in his boot. A small money pouch hanging from his waist around his groin and a dagger in a sheath on his hip. But other than his clothing and sword nothing is there. She turns and shakes her head. Caladan leans on his warstaff as he usually does. "This is a major path down to the lower areas. I assume this is the ONLY cave. We have minutes if not seconds. If you do that spirit stuff it would have to be fast. There could be a single Vong come down here any second now." Kell, Farseeker, Ben'dar and Raban all do a quick search of the Vong warriors. But all have their standard gear - coufee, amphistaff, crab armor and Vong leather-clothing. A quick pile is made of the bodies. Captain Lin scratches his brow removing some sweat. Now these people are talking about spirits? That is for those evil mages that raise the dead and drink their blood! Why did he get himself into this mess? He steps a few feet away from Arawn a bit more disgusted and feeling awkward. Unali looks to the hole and wonders what should be done. This is a critical spot and one can't just climb up and walk to some place up there. If the villagers are right there could be hundreds of sheer open space to other areas above that hole. It would be like a rat ducking his head above ground only to be scooped up by a bird of prey. Arawn comes close to Arawn while holding something in his hand and whispers a few things to her. Then Arawn backs up a bit to where the party rounded the corner to this new tunnel. "I'll need a moment to recharge myself for what may lie ahead." Arawn says to no one in particular as he checks his senses. While the party decides on the next set of actions Arawn steps back, to a spot where he doesn't feel the warning sensation. It seems to ebb away when the Druid passes by the treasure cave. Grabbing Squirt, he gives the cuddly, fuzzy animal a nuzzle, "Good job buddy." Then Kell gives Squirt another piece of sausage from the table as a reward. Squirt takes the sausage from the half-elf with eager determination. Kell knows that a pet even like Squirt should not be taken lightly. Grabbing food from a animal like him could lead to a missing finger. Kell then realizes he is a bit hungry as well but dares not fight with Squirt. Plus the gore in his clothing is upsetting his stomach. Even Squirt sniffs the air around Kell's clothing with a bit of disdain. Kell places the red eyed furball on the table to eat. He then glances around. There isn't much to the make shift sentry post at all. The barrel is checked and it is indeed some ale. The cabinet contains some plates, utensils and a big container of water. There is nothing of value at all here. Z'leyra calls for Will to come over as she digs into her satchel, coming out with a silver goblet and a leather necklace enclosing a large chunk of jade. Giving Will the goblet and then hanging the necklace around his neck she tells him that "This enhanced jade will grant you strength, slow your aging and grant you immunity to disease, corruption and decay. If you swirl it in water in the silver goblet it will give the water the ability to cure any disease. It looks like you may need the strength...at least till you build up your muscles some." [Time: 2:12:08 pm] Actions? Comments? Next Update....Friday... GM: Spells active - Will's Transmutated armor. GM: FYI, I can now follow you on Twitter. Mainly via Trillian. So if you want me or me to add you to my setup let me know. Don't worry I'm not one of the wacko ones that explain what type of sandwich they are making and the various smells and pictures of the bathroom chores. I already have some follower who I have no clue who she is. Go figure. But it could be a good quick way to send out a game tweet. GM: This is one of the updates can't do much until decisions are made on what to do next.
