Ashy's Oathbound Campaign II, IC

[hafrogman]

Tristan heeds Kiera's words and sheathes his blade. But he still walks closer to the asherake and eyeballs it for a moment.

"Can it break loose? We should tie it up just in case."

He kneels and retrieves his rope from his haversack for the second time today.

 

[Voadam]

"The wizard one is still out there and this one can break loose from the magic at any moment. Do not lower your guard yet."

 

[Ashy]

The held asherake remains stone-still and no other signs of enemies are detected. Keria, you stare down into darkness, but see no signs of Yarish or his glider.

A horribly cold wind whips your hair and cloaks, pulling your breath from mouthes and nostrils in long, foggy streams. You know that it will soon be too cold for man or beast out in the open.

 

[Ferrix]

"Let us go inside, Tristan, knock this one out and tie him up. The chill of night is sinking upon us and we need our rest." She will give a silent prayer to those still out in the night. Intoning a mantra of perserverence, she will cast an endure elements spell upon herself to ward off the cold.

OOC: are there any remnants of Yarish's glider around? or down below within reasonable distance?

 

[Ashy]

As Kiera searches the vicinity for parts of Yarish's glider (of which there are none - all fell to the ground far below), she notices something odd. All of the other gliders appear to have been sundered in several different places, as if a giant had stomped down upon each of them.

 

[hafrogman]

Nodding at Kiera, Tristan pulls his blade once more. In a deft motion, he reverses his grip on the sword and brings the pommel down on the back of the creature's head in an attempt to knock it unconcious. Then he starts using his rope to bind the hands, feet and wings of the creature.

[ooc - coup-de-grace subdual? Yeah, probably not. Rules are up to you Ashy, he'll work on the binding whether or not he's successful.]

 

[Ferrix]

A slight frown crosses Kiera's face, tomorrow will take a great deal of her energy mending the crafts.

OOC: Subdual coup-de-grace is basically like any other coup-de-grace, automatic critical anyways, so that's at least a bit of subdual damage (2d10+10); Kiera will memorize two or three Make Whole spells depending upon how many gliders they will need to travel.

 

[Voadam]

Hearing Kiera's command for mercy on their foes, Kyron pulls his swords back the next round when he can act again and holds them in abeyance. (one will disappear each round then as the durations run out).

 

[Ashy]

The held asherake drops like a statue - literally. Tristan soon finds that it is extremely difficult to bind a held creature - its arms, legs and wings frozen in its last pose make it hard to bind the limbs efficiently. However, P.C. dispels the hold and the rest is easy...

Kyron's blades fade out of existence and the group returns to Isror's cave, many still nursing their wounds...

 

[hafrogman]

Tristan drags the Asherake into the cave with them and dumps it's bound form in one corner. He swiftly locates Raak, still sleeping in the exact same place as he was when Tristan last saw him. He wakes the lizard, carries him over to the prisoner and sets him down again. He points to the Asherake.

"Now Raak, watch this guy for me. If he tries to escape. . . eat him."
