[LPF] Darkness Rising

[mfloyd3]

"I will do everything in my power to drive these creatures from the Stoneblade," agrees Larissa solemnly.

 

[DalkonCledwin]

"Yeah, sure why not. I will always avenge the innocent, even if I do not agree with them ideologically." Tonris says to the Master as he looks around for confirmation that the others are going to join in on the adventure. He is pleased to hear that Agno will be coming along as well.

At the same time Rex caws his assent to the adventure.

Tyrien, Half-elven Archeress

Tyrien forgets about the discussion of dragons, clearly the man with funny hair is not going to continue teasing her. More important things to discuss, anyway.

"Sounds fine, hunting this wyvern or sneaking in. I am ready, when do we start? Are we going to eat first? What about shopping? Everyone have all the gear they think they need? I could always browse the the latest fashions from the cobblers-..."

"Oh... Yes, I pledge my bow to help you. I don't pledge my life or my soul, those are mine."

"Funny thing about souls. If you are lucky, they will start talking to you and others can hear them. I was fighting alongside this mage, his soul was quite interesting."

Doesn't matter how solemn the occasion, the half-elven girl just doesn't stop talking.

Master Reinos smiles as everyone agrees to help with the cleansing of Stoneblade.

"Our host has been gracious enough to provide rooms, and I suggest we get an early start. The Stoneblade is a few days away on foot, and I am way to old to be bruised by a horse."

Standing he gets help from one of the servants and is led from the room. "An hour before dawn we will all meet in the courtyard. And do not worry to much about needing additional gear. My spells and the few scrolls and potions I have should be enough addition to see us through our cause."

From the doorway he turns, "Good night to each of you."

[sblock=OOC] Ok gang not much going to happen at night inside a guarded home. So an uneventful sleep followed by everyone gathering their gear and meeting in the courtyard.

Please take time to discuss spell selection OOC before posting your new updated stat block. To save time this could have been talk during the night about what spells may be best used to ...

1) fight a wyvern
2) fight dark folk
3) useed during the long travel during the day
4) used when camp is set/during sleeping outdoors

Also marching order and combat roles.[/sblock]

 

[DalkonCledwin]

"Before we go to bed, Master Reinos, do you by chance know what type of Dark Folk we will be facing? Where I come from there are a wide variety of creatures whom could be defined as 'dark folk' amongst which include creatures from the realms of shadow, demonic entities, and even creatures that live very deep under the ground. It would be beneficial to know exactly what we are facing." Tonris asks of the Master before retiring to his sleeping quarters. Illi Esse is indeed home to a wide assortment of creatures, the weirdest of which are by and far the humans themselves...

 

[HolyMan]

"These dark folk come from deep underground," Renios says stifling a yawn. "Battling them with light may prove a useful tool."

 

[perrinmiller]

Tyrien, Half-elven Archeress

Tyrien suddenly becomes more focused and serious as the topic of darkfolk comes up again.

"The dark folk I DO know about wore layers of rags, carried poison daggers and could cast a Darkness spell at will. I have an Ioun Torch, and still it was suppressed into darkness."

"Luckily we had an aasimar with us to counter the magical night."

"Any of you able to cast such a spell, turning dark into daylight?"

"I have no such spells," observes Larissa. "And I think if I am to lead a charge or hold against one, perhaps my magics would be better spent toward that end. Have any of the rest of you spells that might serve against these dark ones? "

 

[GlassEye]

Agno frets over the question of spells and light and picks at the feathers on his arm as he does so. Finally he shakes his head in the negative.

"Light magics at my disposal are, hurrr... weaker than the floating torch-stone. If these are the same of kind as those darkfolk you met, Tyrien, then my magics will not help." The tengu seems disturbed at the notion of being unable to counter such darkness.

"Keeling panics in such, hurrr... darkness." The hawk perched behind Agno flaps his wings buffeting the tengu as if disputing his comment.

"Unfortunately a spell to create magical daylight is beyond my capabilities to cast. However I agree it is imperative that we have the ability to cast such a spell with us just in case. Surely there is enough spellcasting ability amongst us that one of us can manage to cast that spell?" Tonris says looking from Larissa, to Agno, and back to Larissa in hope that one of the two of them would happen to have such a spell. He then abruptly changes the subject and says "Well either way it is of little use to argue about it, perhaps we should retire and get some rest before the dawn. I would hate to be unrested for such a momentous fight as this."
