    [LPF] Lost Imperium

    Mirra exhales and puffs out her cheeks. "Irreconcilable differences is the short answer, I suppose. There's a longer answer, but it's ... longer." She shrugs off her pack and sits down, suddenly exhausted now that her anger is no longer sustaining her. She takes a waterskin out of her pack...

    [LPF] Kaedyn's Quest

    Rhas holds the crossbow on the far door for a moment, before hurriedly stepping forward and retrieving his shield and axe. "If ye've got a wand o' healing, I could use a few taps. More'n happy to pay ye for it later." Retrieving stuff. Will start drinking potions if that's our healing, but...

    [LPF] Kaedyn's Quest

    Ninja'd, dammit. Updated his post. I'd like to change Rhas' action to ready a shot on anything that comes through the door. If you want to use the same roll, he'll get +2 for a 16 total on account of no Rapid Shot. Otherwise, feel free to roll for me, PM.

    [LPF] Kaedyn's Quest

    Rhas levels his crossbow at the tiefling. "Step away, lassie." He fires a volley of bolts, all of which strike the wall. Seeing the dead tiefling, the dwarf blinks. "Wellae ... nice work then." He turns toward the door, crossbow ready. Wait on Damaris to move out of the way. Rapid fire...

    [LPF] Evil Unto Evil

    Gemma shakes her head sadly. "I wish it weren't so just as much as you, an' probably more, seeing as she was my goddaughter. But the truth is that Rosa spent years bringing it on herself. I'm sorry she brought so much death with her," she said. "And I thank you for keeping us as much out of...

    "The falling-out was before my time, but I'll inform Mr. Cato," Sugar Sweet says. "Tsk. It would be a shame if peace broke out. I have so much unfinished business." "Yes, we does," Rahor hisses in agreement. "The boat leaves for Venza tomorrow afternoon. I assume you'll spend the evening...

    "Matta Sofya, I thank you for that information. But I did not think that finding the flower at the crypt would be likely. I was merely trying to be somewhat politic," Mirra replies. "Too little and too late, I know. "But if you wish to speak of gods, then let me be clear: If the challenge...

    [LPF] Lost Imperium

    Mirra nods to Samad. "A crypt is a place where this flower might be found," she agrees carefully. "It would not hurt to look there. It was back a in the direction we met? Then I'll meet you on the road in a day or two." Mirra was planning on sleeping rough. She holds the citizens as being...

    [LPF] Kaedyn's Quest

    Rhas spits an explosive curse. "Fall back! The whoreson got away." He heads back toward the intersection, dropping his axe and drawing his crossbow. I don't love the idea of letting them have prep time, but the ambush and the trap hosed us. Double move to S59, unless Damaris is planning on...

    [LPF] Evil Unto Evil

    It's the work of a few hours to search the ruins and pile the corpses together with a bit of dry wood. From the look of it, Rosa had been using the risen wights to excavate the catacombs in search of treasures, magical and otherwise. She'd assembled a fair portion, which you collect. After...

    [LPF] Lost Imperium

    Mirra listens to the king with a grim expression that seems out of place, given her normally cheerful (if somewhat flighty) attitude. She chooses her next words carefully. "As you say, your majesty. I wished only to suggest that Lesovik would surely respect the needs of his worshipers, were...

    “No! I want no applause from you,” Mirra says with a glare at the onlookers. When the cheering comes to a surprised and stuttering halt, she continues. “That feeling of relief you have right now? That is because you are guilty, and each of you knows it. You were all complicit in risking the...

    [LPF] Lost Imperium

    Mirra gently lets go of Polina's hand. "I'll be just a moment. Stay with Pirvinia. There's something I need to do," she says. Retrieving her wand from Samad, she makes her way to the dying wildman and checks to see if he still lives. She kneels beside him and taps him once with the wand...

    [LPF] Evil Unto Evil

    The don turns to Eanos. "The residual magic on the atoll is of little concern: it will wash away with time and tide now that the spell is broken. If you wish to bury these ruins, go to the broken statue behind Rosa's tent. Whisper these words in its ear: 'Tuulo Aran-Tandalus, amin'naia i'...

    Upcoming Adventure Review

    Evil Unto Evil is a week or so from ending, depending on how fast the final RP bits go. That'll put three level 10-ish characters back in the DWI (Heinrich, Tyrien, Eanos).

    Agreed. No need for a proposal for anything less than a city or major faction.

    [LPF] Evil Unto Evil

    Rosa shrieks and flails as the ball of magic fire explodes around her. The sound is abruptly cut off with a thunderclap as Tyrien's arrow strikes her in the throat. She staggers forward for a step, then another, and then her foot lands on empty air and her body plummets thirty feet to the...

    Mirra comforts Polina. "It's okay, brave girl. It's over. First, we get you back to your parents, and then we make sure this never happens again, to you or to anyone else," she says. She looks at the bodies of the Wolf King and the wildmen, and her expression hardens. "There was too much...

    [LPF] Evil Unto Evil

    "Rosa would not be so stupid as to ..." The don trails off thoughtfully. "Or would you, Rosa? I know it burned you, that Davel was not man enough to walk in my shoes, but still man enough to walk his own path. Perhaps we do need to talk, after al--urgh!" Armando is abruptly cut short. In...
