Against the Storm Part II: Luskan

[DM_Matt]

Elone smiles. "Such a plan is acceptable to Solonor. If he is a vampire, is he weakened by holy items, or sunlight? I can provide the latter...."

"Shall we take him tonight, then? If so, are there any items that would assist us in attacking that we could locate in town?"

OOC: Have we gained any cash up to this point?

You left the forest battle in a hurry and didn't stop to loot the bodies

On the ship, Rufus let you take items (which you did) but kept the cash.

Regarding vampires:
There are many types of vampires in this world, so you are not entirely sure what his strengths and weaknesses are.
<Kelnar rolls Bardic Knowledge check...BTW, GE, you might wanna take some knowledge (monsters)...The bardic knowledge check was only enough to get you some general information>

There are two main kinds of vampires, Arcane Vampires and Fleshbound Vampires, although there are many variations from bloodline to bloodline. Arcane Vampires tend to have the ability to change shape, assume gaseous form, drain life energy, and control minds. they also are usually tied to their coffins. Fleshboand vampires are better fighters but have few magical abilities and less in the way of mystical protections.

A stake through the heart will immobilize an Arcane vampire, but will turn a Fleshboand vampire into dust. All vampires are susceptable to sunlight, but particularly Arcane Vampires. Holy Water and blessed or holy weapons are said to be useful, too.

OOC: Damn my lack of bless weapon and the like. Can a cleric make holy water, or does it require a spell?

OOC2: Just remembered this tidbit: From the SRD: GMW: If the character is a good cleric, the cleric of a good deity, or a paladin, the weapon is considered blessed, which means it has special effects on certain creatures.
So my arrows are blessed arrows.

Elone shrugs.

"So, in essence, we subdue him, and then stake him? I would bet that a Solonor touched arrow through the heart would suffice as a stake. Does anyone need time to prepare, or can we now go?"

IC: "How far away is this place? What time would it take to get there? I will need to cast some spells here or there pending on the time.."

 

[DM_Matt]

Radish: Any good cleric can make holy water by the usual item creation rules (1/2 street price gp + 1/25 street price XP (assume you have them to spare...you guys will be getting XP for everytihng up to now after you defeat (or fail to defeat) the Kraken leader)).

Leopold: As was stated in earlier parts of this threead from before you arrived, your quarry is staying in the more upscale inn accross the street.

"I suggest we go immediately then. the light favors us."

OOC: I only took the knowledges avail or suggested in the PHB. If I can have knowledge (Monsters) that would fit and I would like to reallocate some pts if you are cool with it. Also, what other Knowledge skills are avail in you game?

Elone claps Kelnor on the back. "I think that we'll get alone well, friend. You seem one well suited to our task, as well as one well suited to Solonor. Have you ever considered...."

She continues for a few minutes, extolling the virtues and benefits of Solonor until we're ready to go.

 

[Leopold]

IC: "I am ready my companions. Let us go, it shall be a tough mission but i think we can do it. Shall i summon my animal companion to join us? I left him out in the woods to not draw attention. It would only be a matter of time to bring him here and he would be of use if needbe. If not I can draw on other forces of nature to aid us."

OOC: DM_Matt Spell is is revised. Look it over. Also, would i have cast awakened on my Sabretooth tiger? I have the ability to do so and was going to anyway.

 

[DM_Matt]

Eagle: Yes, you may add knowledge (monsters) I cant think of any other house rule knowledge off the top of my head..

Leopold: I dont quite get what you mean? Are you saying that there is a spell called Summon Animal Companion in revised?

 

[GoldenEagle]

OOC: I think Awaken is a spell that adds to animals ability, but I'm not sure. Knowledge traits will be adjusted in Rogues Gallery

[DM_Matt]

Awaken I know. Leopold said something about revised, tohugh. Yes, the sab.tiger can be awakened. However, because Awaken is L5 and he levels with you, he still is advanced from 8 to 9 HD rather than getting a level in a class.
