S@squ@tch's Against the Giants - Team Black
Yoggrith rises before the dawn, and finds that he is not the first to rise... a rare occurance indeed. Rather, the gnome is preparing things to begin the cooking of the morning meal, and the halfork walks over to him. "May I assist you in your preparations by restarting the fire?" he asks... then goes through effort of doing so.
When the fire is made and the gnome can begin cooking, he moves a bit out of camp and goes through his several rituals to the darkness to prepare himself for the day. As others begin to rise as the sun comes up, he gives each of them a quick nod of good morning, but remains focused on his ritual. Finally, when he is through, he breaks his fast and commends the gnome on the food. "Praise your efforts on this meal, this day. Darkness and light bring good food to all. Blessed be you."

Thanor rests a bit easier than he has for weeks, glad to be acting once again, and defending those around him. It might be safer back in Stormreach, but there were fewer opportunities for absolution.
He grinned in satisfaction at the sight of more finely-prepared food and slapped the gnomish chef on the back in gratitude, hardly pausing to apologize for the uninentional pain he caused in the process.

Morika arises, cranky beyond belief that her weakness still plagues her. Digging claws into the soil as she connects herself to the earth, she draws the land's strength to counteract the lingering effects of the creature's poisoned fangs. Pressing handfuls of leaves and earth to her wounds and chanting the lyrical Druidic in her harsh voice, much of Morika's weakness is driven out, draining into the earth, which she mashes back into the hole she dug it out of. Substantially less irritated and irritating, she stalks over for pancakes, rolling them up and eating them in one bite, one stack after another, finishing with a piece of fruit for the road.
"Well, we done lazing about? We got more ground t' cover afore nightfall," she announces.
OOC: Morika's roll for two lesser restoration spells. (2d4=5). Morika's roll for two more lesser restoration spells. (2d4=2) Hopefully with recovering one Str from sleeping, Morika is now down only 4 Str from normal. Morika would have gotten two lesser restorations from her second level spells instead of wild instincts and master air and then prepped and cast two more in her third level slots, replacing giant's wrath and greater magic fang. Am I correct in seeing that Yoggrith chose to heal Morika before she went to bed? Otherwise she's going to burn some further healing spells on herself.

Yoggrith stands up from where he is sitting and nods to everyone. "I am ready to go as well. It is a good day for a long, drawn-out fight."
OOC: Isida (and everyone)... my spells are at your disposal, so if any time we are camping for the night, please don't hesitate to mention if you are down ability scores, hit points, or energy levels. Yoggrith will blow whatever remaining spell power he has to get you all back up before hitting the sack. If I forget to cast it all before sleeping, please remind me what you might need. That's what he's here for after all.

Ipshivi watched as the others went through their morning preparations. She had already completed her own rituals- even as the first hint of dawn lightened the sky, she had invoked the protective veils which warded her each day. For a time she was content to simply keep watch, but as the others got ready to move, she scampered down from her perch and made her way over to help with the mundane tasks of breaking camp. "I'm ready to go when all of you are," she chirped quietly, when all of the group's gear was packed.
OOC: Reinvoke Spiderwalk, See the Unseen, Entropic Warding, and Walk Unseen. Since we're in the jungle, she will also use one charge from her eternal wand of Endure Elements.

25 Zarantyr Morning to Late Afternoon
Voadam takes possession of the pearl after giving the halforc around 20 of the large golden giant coins. He meditates for some time, while pondering the depths of the wand found on the aberrant giantkin. After he comes out of his meditative state, he understands that the wand is of divine origin, capable of energizing the regenerative properties of living creatures.
[Wand of Lesser Vigor, Mass -- 12 charges remaining]
The others pack up the make-shift camp while the wizard is occupied. When Voadam has completed his task, the band moves out, heading further into the jungle.

The morning's walk is uneventful -- the forest canopy has begun to break up slightly, with an accompanying change in the general make-up of the forest. Gone are the tall hardwood trees that surrounded Stormreach, now the bulk of the forest are old-growth softwood trees, heavily encircled by various vining plants, which look to almost choke the life out of their hosts. Small puddles of standing water become more common, and the humidity has been turned up. Spots of sun are able to penetrate to the forest floor, making those without long brimmed hats squint constantly.
Lunch is taken quickly, as the gnome brings forth more food from his sack, this time mainly meats and cheeses, with several loaves of bread.
Before long, the group is back on the trail. About an hour after you stopped for lunch, several of the group swears that they had seen a large green lizard-like creature flying high in the sky before disappearing into the clouds.

The sun has dropped below the forest canopy to the west, causing long shadows to dance along the jungle floor. Several stands of grasses litter the trail, hues of green, yellow, and even pink are seen. An outcropping of rocks appears to your left. The guides up ahead suddenly stop and hold out their hands -- they look to be scanning the brush. Behind you, the gnome and halforc artificier have taken cover, for it appears they know the mannerisms of Ganyon in the deep jungle.
A rustle is heard to your left, and by the time you look in that direction, one of the largest tigers you have ever seen has emerged from behind the rocky outcropping and is bounding towards Aeranduil!
It jumps high into the sky and lands on the elf -- biting and clawing with its monstrous front and back claws. The others are helpless to watch as the elf is savaged by the giant beast.
Surprise Round:
Tiger emerges from the rock outcropping to your left.
Charge attack by the tiger, bite, 2 claws, and 2 rakes all HIT for 57 damage on Aeranduil
Round 1: Initiative and actions
