Ashy's Oathbound Campaign, IC [ARCHIVED]

[hafrogman]

"Leave it Baja! Go. Look. Food there!"

[ooc - Tristan will resists Baja's attempts to snatch Raak away and will attempt to reach into his pack one handed to find some rations to throw into a corner to distract the half orc with]

 

[Ashy]

Tristan glares at everyone making a fuss over little harmless Raak. He looks around at the others.

"Well, don't look at me, I can't cast spells. But fine, PC, be that way. Sit on the other side of the room and explain what all the fuss is about."

[ooc - int +2 = (17) + 2 = 19]

Tristan:

Spoiler

You do recall that while you were under the effects of the endure elements spell (i.e. you were warm) and once you picked up Raak, you got colder, yet no one else seemed to...

 

[Ashy]

Kyron tosses the ensorcelled cake just as Baja awakens and reaches for Raak. The spellseeker is hungrily eyeing the glowing cake in mid-air, and as such, is completey taken by surprise by the half-orc's snatch. Raak tries to scramble away as Baja's meaty hand latches onto his stubby tail, but to no avail; Baja lifts the creature into the air just as the light-enbumed cake lands on the cave floor with a smack very close where Raak was recently sitting.

Then, something strange happens... Raak begins sniffling and snuffling, as if seeking the trail of something lost. Slowly, the light around the cake begins to waft and waver, much like a torch in high wind. Then, the light flows upward from the cake into Raak's nostrils - it is as if the creature is literally breathing in the magic contained within the cake. In the span of three heartbeats, the light is completely gone and Raak gurgles contendedly.

Then, it begins trying to free itself from Baja's grasp, screeching, "Raaaaakkk! Raaaakkk!" and looking from Baja's hand to Tristan and back again...

 

[Voadam]

Kyron gestures again and calls out a minor invocation of power. His eyes flare a deep blue as he gains a new arcane sense. Kyron's gaze focuses on Tristan intently as he starts to focus in on the weave of magic within his sight, perring through layers of reality to reveal the magic that lies there.

ooc. detect magic, to verify if Tristan still has the aura from his endure elements spell (it has been less than the 24 hour duration) and all his magic items.

Kyron:

Spoiler

Endure elements: no, all else seems untouched

 

[deadestdai]

Whatching the lighted cake's glowy-ness get snorted up Raak's snout, Baja is a little shocked and, keeping the leg-lizard at arm's length, looks to Kiera and Xerxes to see if they had any special instructions for him regarding this new occurance.

 

[Vendetta]

"Let Tristan have the leg lizard, Baja. There is other food for you to eat." Xerxes says, reacing for some of the food to show the albino.

 

[ferretguy]

Watching in fascination as the magic is (?) absorbed into the creature, Julian remarks "Well, well, well....perhaps we could view this little creature as a godsend..who knows if this magic 'eating' may come in handy for us."

 

[deadestdai]

Handy for snack if him keep trying to eat our food! Baja effortlessly tosses the lizard over to Tristan. Make him be good Triztrahn. Not want him to eat my thumper.

 

[hafrogman]

Tristan snatches Raak away from the half-orc and places the thoughroughly man handled lizard on the ground next to him, on the side AWAY from Baja. He glares at the half-orc for a moment before returning to look at the others.

"Okay, so he absorbs spells cast near him. Inconvenient I suppose, but hardly dangerous in any fashion. Indeed it could be useful if someone tried to bombard me with magical fire, assuming that it doesn't hurt Raak to eat such a spell."
