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

    With Saerie’s save giving me an opening, I kip up to my feet and unload a torrent of sword and spell upon the eladrin Fey Knight. Flawless Bladework (Int) 1, 5 + 3 (+ 1 forward) = 10 d8 damage and 2 techniques. 1 damage – 3 armor = 0 damage. Burst: Your attack deals an additional 1d4 damage...

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

    Let me just update the score here quickly. We have made the following allies: - A Winter Wolf and its pack of Dire Wolves. - Frost Goblins. - A Hobgoblin Sorcerer King with a White Dragon bloodline....or something. - An Ancient White Dragon. Now we have the Winter Fey in our face! Are we...

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

    On our trip back, I start a conversation with Averandox as we're nearing our destination. Probably an hour out. "I trust you're aware that there is crossing to the Feywild not far from your lair." "That is a powerful potential ally..." "And the Prince of Frost would certainly demand your...

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

    End of Session * Bonds - No bonds resolved yet but I'm working on Averandox for "I will make a powerful ally in this world for the Feywild elves." I'm hopeful that I can cement this before we part ways. * Alignment - "Endanger yourself to combat an unnatural threat." More than once with...

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

    As the larger one and one of the smaller two are having their intense exchange, I announce my presence with blades of cutting air and the life-drawing power of nethermancy. Wind Slash (Int) on small Sahuagin 3, 4 + 3 = 10 d8 damage and 1 technique. 8 - 2 armor = 6 damage. Dead...

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

    With full winter's fury, Averandox tears at the restrained Aboleth Mind Mage with massive claws like three poleaxes strapped to a falling boulder... I'll go ahead and roll his DD (Con) for Mucus Haze as well. Hack and Slash (Str) 3, 3 + 2 = 8 Claws, (b[2d10] + 3 damage, piercing 1) Forceful...

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

    Picking back up where we left off... Averandox is looking to tear the creature's soft, squishy tentacles from its body so it can't latch on to him. He didn't like the taste of the Mucus Haze from the last aboleths he fought so that is priority number one. Hack and Slash (Str) 6, 1 + 2 = 9...

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

    FYI, I screwed up with that first Volley. I gave my last 3 Ammo to Saerie so I didn't have any left! Alright, to Otthor. I'm going to sprint a few paces toward the center of World's End to draw the flying kraken toward me so that if I fall it's just 30 feet or so onto the bluff. I pass the...

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

    Alright, lets start this thing off. As we approach the horde of enemies that await us, my bow is ready with an arrow strung. By the light of the moon, I take in the vastness of the task before us and breathe a steadying breath. If this is to be my last fight, I vow to take every last enemy...

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

    Now this might sound crazy, or not, but hear me out. Few questions: 1 - Are the two flying krakens nearby each other? 2 - Where are they with respect to the bluff? Directly over it, near it, or far from it? 3 - How high are they with respect to the ground and the bluff. Here is what I'm...

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

    I'm going to hit him with some nuclear logic upside his dragon head. "That is the treasure of a powerful alien culture from the the Far Realm. It is likely that no dragon in all the world can claim such a thing amongst their horde. I would think the short period of time to excavate it would...

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

    When she says the last bit about swearing an oath to the people of Giliad's Rest, I'm thinking "...you also swore an oath to the Summer Queen that you would ensure no Far Realm threat to the Feywild is realized..." But I don't dare say it when I see the fire and emotion in her eyes. She has to...

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

    The moment I hit the frozen earth of the glacial moraine, I'm back at it, unleashing blades of cutting air on the Aboleth Overseer. It's time to finish this! Wind Slash (Int) 4, 2 + 3 = 9 I'll choose danger as my complication. d8 damage. 4 - 1 = 3 damage. Burst: 1d4 damage and forceful...

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

    I rise to meet my friend with a mixture of emotions. Sorrow for the pain she has just endured on my behalf. Anger that she had to in the first place. Grateful for her sacrifice. Awe-struck by her skill. Proud to call her my friend. When my eyes betray me and tell me my friend has turned...

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

    I speak in my mind to the invasive aboleth. "Worse things than you have tried to make a meal of me." As the creature's tentacles are about to strike me, I use the arcane fabric that overlays all realities and step through worlds, leaving the creature's tentacles to grasp at nothing. Using the...

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

    I leave Exel's protective flank, dive inside of their tentacle reach, somersault through the thicket of wavy appendages... Defy Danger (Dex) 6, 3 + 1 = 10 ...and unleash a fury of blade and magic. Flawless Bladework (Int) 4, 3 + 3 = 10. d8 damage and 2 techniques. 8 - 0 = 8. 1st one is...

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

    I'm visualizing Otthor with his two goblin pals squaring off against the huge aboleth overseer while Saerie handles the little guys. The goblins and myself are near one of the two moraines which isn't too far from the watering hole's shore where animals, who I guess are now all aboleths (!)...

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

    Listening to the thrum of the bowstring, feeling the disturbance in the air, and knowing the perfection that is Saerie's aim, I catch the arrow without taking my gaze from the dragon. "In our peoples' culture, an intact arrow perfectly fired from an elven bow is a gift of alliance. Breaking...

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

    As I stare into the mighty wyrm's eyes, unflinching, I casually pull a tendertwig out of my pack (marking off 1 AG), strike it to the bottom of my foot, and move the warming flames to the cross-guard of my sword and knife. The conduction of the heat should melt the ice which cements the blades...

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

    Having arranged things with the constable before we left, I speak to my frightened, cowardly little friend in his native goblin tongue. "Abnor, this is where we part ways. At least for now. You will have work and a place in Earthmaw. They have need of good sled teams and you manage your...
