Against the Storm: Luskan (Summoning shaff)

[DM_Matt]

Elone nods, and looks surveys the group. "So who among us will go in? Solonor's Will places me there, and I am certain that our toothy friend Ubaar will come. Jaina seems set on coming, and her strange abilities could help. Rahja and the mysterious one as well. That gives us a hunter, a warrior, a magician, a shadow-friend, and an unknown. Are there others who will join us? This fellow will man the boat..."

OOC: Good good. The NPCs can get a bit confusing, and it's a little odd to have 3 sided conversations with 1 other person.

Maggie (for newcomers: the girl with the broken arm who made thge map) says "I should come with. My knowledge of the methods and technologies of the gondians will likely prove helpful. I'm afraid I won't be much use in combat, though. I trust Rannos to keep me safe (shaff? u there?)"

(OODM: Seems like everything is planned...howsabout a roll call before I simply describe the uneventful trip to the boat)

 

[reapersaurus]

OOC: I'm here. Just waiting for something to sink Ubaar's toothyness into. BTW: could you edit the title, removing the "summoning reapersaurus" part? Thx

To Jonathon, she shrugs. "Solonor has many tasks. The faster this one is finished, the faster more can begin." She winks at Ubaar. "Besides, I think our muscled friend here would be more comfortable acting than listening to plans."

"You right, El-Oh-Nay, that Ubaar rather act than plan.
But I've learned thru pain that many times it better to plan than to run in.

Many of my tribe never learned that, and many are dead now.
While thinking hurts sometimes, and I'd rather give in to the fire in my blood, Uthgar has allowed me to see thru the red mask and live to fight again."

 

[dead_radish]

Elone nods. "Fair enough. Let us move."

 

[DM_Matt]

bump.

 

[Thanee]

I'm ready to go.

 

[dead_radish]

Elone nods. "Ubaar? Jaina? Johnathon?"

OOC: Roll-call!

 

[reapersaurus]

"Ubaar always ready to go.

It neat that pretty lady.. 'Rah-zha' is, too."

Ok, the other two dont seem to have been posting in general, so we'll just go for now. Shaff at least has a tendancy to disappear for a while at a time and then come back. I gather that his Internet access is somewhat intermittant.
----------------------------------------------------------------------.

Ubaar, Elone, Rahja, Ines, Rannos, Jaina, and Maggie (geez, still a big party) gather their equiptment as they follow the others to Fin's boat.

(DESC OF NPC STUFF)

Jonathan retrieves a bag containing Jaina's equiptment. It immediately becomes clear that Irusyl is very generous to her young apprentice. She probably carries just as much wealth at you do. She wears an incredably light and obviously magical chain shirt (Celestial Armor) underneath her simple black outfit, and a gold circlet, covered mostly by her long blond hair (braided behind her) with a huge blue gem in the center (int bonus item), looking a bit disturbingly like a third matching eye. At her side is an intracately-decorated magical rapier, and armor-like metal guards on her forearms, each holding three wands. Her height, and young face make her look rather out of place in such battle gear, but she nonetheless has an air of confidence and steadyness.

Maggie is quite a bit more humble. She still wears the brown clothing and blue cloak of the temple of Gond, her curly blond hair resting haphazardly on her cloak, and has little visible equitment except a dagger on her belt. She stows the cloak qhile swimming to put it on when she gets out of the water. She will mostly be there for her knowledge of the ways of the Gondians, having to rely on her few spells for almost everything. One arm remains in a sling, preventing her from using a crossbow and significantly slowing her swimming.

-------------------
Everything goes according to plan. It is night. Everyone jumps off the boat and swims for shore, finding their way under the bridge and surfacing. (See the map from earlier in the thread). Now what?

 

[Thanee]

Rahja changes her outfit with a few arcane words and simple gestures to be less hindering underwater. Her skirt shortens considerably during this process. She takes off her boots and cloak and drops them into the small backpack, in which they simply vanish, probably into some extradimensional storage. Her left ankle is adorned with a pearl anklet, which can be seen now.

With a smile, she jumps into the water and it quickly becomes obvious that her swimming ability is magically boosted. She swims about as fast as a human runs on land.

Near the bridge she submerges herself into the water, to dampen the sound, and casts a quick spell (Detect Magic). The water doesn't seem to hinder her in the slightest. She surfaces again and starts to scan the area.

OOC: Stupid question of the day... we are at the bottom of the map, right?

Yes.
