Ashy's Oathbound Campaign, IC [ARCHIVED]

[Voadam]

"Tristan. He also seems to have 'eaten' the elemental ward I placed upon you yesterday. It should still be going until noon today like the ones I placed upon myself and Kiera. It appears I won't be able to ward off the effects of the desert sun on your armor while the spider lizard is around. It has not affected any of your permanently glamored items though. Yet."

Kyron peers calculatingly at the small lizard.

"In addition to being a defense against spells cast on you, it could possibly be useful in bringing down opponents who depend upon enhancing themselves with temporary magics. And he inspires great fear among the magically awakened of this world. I wonder if he would eat a spellcaster's power to cast spells. Best to keep him away from Kiera and myself for now."

Kyron turns to the lieutenant

"Xerxes, I understand your mind magery is similar to magics in some ways and different in others. Is there a minor power you can invoke to see if the spider lizard affects your powers as well? It would not do to need to levitate Tristan and find out at the last minute that you could not."

 

[Vendetta]

"Then let us see." Replies Xerxes as he stands. He begins to hum to himself, closing his eyes. Psionic power pours out of his mind, swirling and darting forward toward Tristan as he moves the "hum" between the man and the Spellseeker, creating the noise there. He opens his eyes to see, and hopes to hear, what happens.

 

[Ashy]

Raak looks up (from where he has been preening himself after his rough release) at the noise, sniffs a bit, but quickly returns to what he was doing before. The "hum" persists...

 

[Vendetta]

"Well then, I appear to be 'safe' from the Spellseeker... or, at least my Psionics are. I wonder why Raak reacted in such a skittish manner toward me when first he appeared to us yesterday? Do you think he can sense my powers but does not understand what they are?" Xerxes questions after the "hum" fades away into silence.

 

[Ashy]

"Likely because he knows he cannot devour your soul!" exclaims PC. The frey looks to the spellseeker and then to the cave around him, nervously. "Uh...can we get a bit of fresh air? It is getting a little cramped in here..."

 

[Vendetta]

PC, are you saying that these things can destroy the soul of a being and not just magic? Xerxes asks the Frey.

 

[Ashy]

The frey nods, "That's what I heard, suren!"

Isror chuckles, "That's why I don't muck around with th' stuff myself..." The war valco gets up and speaks to Qyt'tyl, "Prepare the ladies for flight..." He then turns to P.C. "I have a proposal for you-", he then looks to Kiera, "as well as your party, should you also decide to return to Ossian at some point."

Qyt'tyl scurries out one of the smaller hole-like passages in the cave, crawling low to the ground, soon vanishing into the inky blackness.

Tristan shakes his head slowly from side to side.

"So that's it? You're petrified of some rumor about soul eating, but you've never actually witnessed it? Well, that's soon enough fixed."

He looks down towards Raak and holds up a single finger in front of the lizard's eyes.

"Now Raak, no eating anyone's soul today, okay?"

 

[Ferrix]

Kiera laughs mirthfully at Tristan's antics, but turns her attention to Isror, "what have you in mind?"

 

[Voadam]

Kyron turns his blue eyed gaze to the spider lizard again then turns to Isror and PC to follow the conversation.

Ooc:

Spoiler

Kyron checks out the spider lizard then Isror and PC. Ashy do you run supernatural abilities and psionics as detecting as having magical auras?
