Wrath of the Righteous

"North it is, then, as both paths seem to go upwards. Hopefully this one will take an eastward turn."

Their course decided, the Paladin takes another glance 'round at his comrades to make sure they're ready, and heads out.

Jorgun begins to follow Medjai, helping Anevia when she needs it. As they go along, Jorgun surveys the area to make sure the group is always heading upward.

Calloh, half-elf bard

Calloh moves out with the rest of the group. Strangely, he doesn't even feel like playing his instrument just now.

Traits: 1. Riftwarden [Campaign Trait] 2. Courageous 3. Anatomist

History: Calloh was born to two adventurers, his mother was an elf champion and his father a human wizard. They were both Riftwardens who adventured into the Worldwound on a secret mission soon after Calloh was born. They left their newborn son with trusted allies, perhaps knowing that their odds of returning were slim. In any case, they met their doom in the Worldwound. Not long after their departure, the foster parents that they had chosen for their son noticed that a mark had appeared on the inside of Calloh's right leg – The Sign of the Seeker's Spiral. [Riftwarden Orphan Trait bonus of +2 on Concentration checks.] The mysterious circumstances of his parents' deaths sparked an insatiable curiosity in Calloh. When he grew up, he was so intent on making new discoveries and learning new things that he almost seemed fearless when it came to new places, experiences, people, and creatures. [Couageous Trait bonus of +2 on Saves vs. Fear Effects.] Now that Calloh has fully come of age, he seeks to learn the destiny of his parents, hoping against hope that he may somehow find them alive and be able to bring them home safely. For his last trait, Calloh chooses Anatomist, which gives him +1 on rolls to confirm critical hits.

Space, maybe you need to try and re-register for InvisibleCastle or check your spam box? CoyoteCode doesn’t seem to like you. Good new is that you don’t need to make any survival check yet, so I can just ignore that one.


Leif, Callow should be at 200 EXP at this point, not 120!


On that note, for those of you not used to PbP, its been said before but bears repeating... don’t get used to this pace. I’ve seen games take years between levels before. We’re going at a very good clip right now, you could easily hit the half way mark to level two soon (depending on things such as keeping people happen and safe) and I hope it keeps up, but there will be slow bits.

As you head north, you come across another, smaller cave. It appears to have once served as a campsite or temporary lair. A torn bedroll lies next to the cold remains of a fire. A pile of bones, broken equipment, and rubble lies just past the campsite.

[sblock=map]

Medjai looks carefully around the camp, examining the area for clues as to who - or what - may have been camping under the city as well as how long ago they may have been here.

Jorgun wordlesly takes a good look at the campsite, then assists Medjai in trying to identify what the camp is all about.

[sblock=Perception then Survival]
Perception: 1D20+6 = [3]+6 = 9


Aid Another - Survival: 1D20+6 = [14]+6 = 20
[/sblock]

[sblock=ooc]I've tried registering with Invisible Castle 3 different times and tried different e-mail accounts. I have no idea why it isn't going through.[/sblock]

Medjai and Jorgun are able to easily determine that the site was used for a while, but has since been abandoned, with the tracks leading to the east, back from the way you can. It looks like the inhabitant was around five and a half feet tall, although it is a bit tough to tell, the imprint of limbs in the ground seem oddly proportioned. Jorgun turns up some useful gear in the campsite - torn bedroll, three candle stubs (each can burn for 30 minutes), a bent fishhook, 10 feet of badly frayed hemp rope, and a copper brooch depicting a bat with amethyst eyes perched on a mushroom - at least until he grabs a cave snake hiding in the bed by its tail and gets bitten for his trouble!


[sblock=occ]Jorgun takes 1 damage and must make a Fortitude save. Roll initiative.


That’s weird, IC’s been really reliable in the past. Maybe contact them about it?[/sblock]

[sblock=Initiative]
Initiative: 1D20+3 = [8]+3 = 11

[/sblock]

[sblock=ooc]I don't even know if I can get a hold of them - I get a message from them when I try. I'll switch computers and give it another go.[/sblock]

[sblock=Fortitude]Jorgun takes 1 Con damage[/sblock]

[sblock=occ] You should be able to do it from here: http://invisiblecastle.com/contact/

Also, you can post your first round actions with your initiative, I neglected to mention that.[/sblock]

Jorgun takes out his greatsword and attempts to identify the creature. Assuming nothing out of the ordinary he goes on to attack.

[sblock=Rolls]
Nature: 1d20+5=6

Attack: 1d20+2=7
[/sblock]

[sblock=ooc]Everytime I send them a message it says "server not found" after I click to send it. Hopefully they went through anyway.

Also, I don't think Coyote is the problem as my rolls are this bad even with IC.[/sblock]
