    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    I tell Otthor that I’ll be ok and I’d like him to check on our companions and make sure things are ok down there. I bid him goodbye and set about my ritual. I paint my face and body with the sacred earth as Wandering Wolf directed. I perform the chant with the bowls. My breathing is steady...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    I should have 12 xp as well after End of Sessions, but I'll do those moves after this social scene as well. I need to see about the below * before picking my new move. I will give Three Bird and the abridged version of what is happening here. These are men of action. I'm sure they don't...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    Now that I've confirmed we're safe and that he cares about his family, or at least his chldren, I'm going to bring them into play as my trump card. "I have women and children that I've escorted here through the dangers of the wilds. Refugees from the Far Realm threat that will surely claim...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    I listen to the threatening screech and the threatening words of Three Bird. Do I percieve more than these threats? He is carrying a torch, bare-chested with only breeches on. Is there anything in his other hand or is there anything else about him that is notable? He told the other hunters...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    At the cave where the hot springs are, I will make sure that the man is well bound, hog-tied and gagged, so there is no escaping. I will remind him that he is alive on the strength of our mercy. If he is lucky, we will be alive tomorrow to pick him back up. Alternatively, we will be dead and...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    As the spinning knife comes to rest at Xanob's feet, I see him look down at it. My feet are in motion before he begins to stoop as I intend to kick kick it away from him, across the room, and stand between he and the prone captive. Defy Danger (Dex) 1, 6 + 3 = 10 As the knife flies across the...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    I definitely want to lock in a "pass without trace" so you can't use it against us as a complication later. Pass Without Trace (Wis) 3, 2 + 2 = 7 Your party can't be tracked but you have to sacrifice either time or immediate safety. We don't have any time to spare at all so I'll go with...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    This is where we will head. Hopefully we can convince them to aid us. The things that concern me most are the snow leopards and the loose snowpacks that could turn into deadly avalanche. The snow leopards can easily stalk us in the darkness from above. They could pick off one of the...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    There is a powerful sense of isolation and sorrow that I feel when grasping the staff. The cold is there as well but I'm mostly inured to it due to the warding amulet. I read the engraving on the staff out loud and tell Otthor that I will heed his warning. I'm sure I have some stray ties on...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    Do I need to Defy Danger here to stealth and attack from surprise or does Camouflage just apply here so I can Called Shot? Excellent! I pad quietly and quickly into position. When she unleashes on the door and begins to gather power, I loose an arrow aimed for her head... Called Shot (Dex)...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    I put some distance between myself and the eladrin warrior, looking at a gentle rise to try to crest and get some cover for stealth in case he pursues. As I reach it, I jump to the ground to lay still and flat for a moment. Rawr is fending off the eladrin when suddenly the fey warrior is...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    I unconsciously reach for the warding amulet on my chest when I see the Bralani prepare to unleash her frozen salvo upon us. When I see the Fey Knight obscure her vision to us and hear Otthor's call, I instinctively sprint away and toward the bow's resting spot. Rawr follows close behind. No...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    As the bow and Otthor go tumbling away due to the freezing winds, I reach for my weapon belt and draw forth my short sword and long knife. I lean into the winds and reach up with my lead arm to try to shield myself from the sleet with my cloak. Defy Danger (Con) 4, 2 + 1 (+ 1 amulet) = 8...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    I tell Exel and Xanob that these women and their children will be staying the evening here so we need to make available whatever accomodations are available for sleeping. I suspect that there are probably fur rogs. Insulative peat moss can be harvested and smoked, to remove any creepy...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    “There is no reason because there is no aim to bring these humans to the Feywild. I was sent to this world to protect any and all Feywild Crossings, those near my lands and those near yours, from Far Realm invasion because the Summer Court believed that such invasion was imminent. Well they...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    I try hard not to let my face betray how caught off guard and unnerved I am by this. I put my hand on the tuft of Rawr’s fur on the back of his neck to attempt to calm him. So I might telegraph my peaceful intentions to the eladrin, I speak to my bear companion in elven rather than in the...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    I do nothing directly to dissuade their presumption that I'm a primal spirit. For all intents and purposes, that is exactly what I am. At the very least, I am working on their direct behalf as I am here to deliver them from the unnatural. "It does have magic to it." I bend down, pat the...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    Rawr and I lay down on the rise, quietly and carefully observing them with our eye-line just high enough to take in what is before us. I want to approach them in time but I need it to be on good terms immediately. I'm thinking on my understanding of the primal spirits and of the cultures that...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    I look at the cat-gut string slack-jawed. A gift from Correlon no doubt. I say a quiet prayer of thankfulness, detach it from the shattered remnants of the bow, coil it, and place it in my pack. I stare up at the cliff face, looking back and forth between it and the heavy ropes of the...

    The Fey, the Far, and the Ugly Space In Between

    End of Session * Bonds When Otthor was in dire straits in the fight with the aboleths and the remorhaz, I came to his aid and protected him from the burning steam. I resolved one of my bonds with him then; I let Otthor down when the crevasse claimed him. I will restore his faith in me. 1 xp...
