covaithe's E1: Death's Reach

A few images of other moments fade away, and Massacre comes back to his bodies moment at hand. Right, Excellent, carry on... The wizard continues to get a grip on reality, petting Lucifa, and watching the aftermath of battle.

"My name is Ba-Ka-Thet, Moonknight and Chosen of the Panther God. I studied in the monastery under Ling Kao Po. I tried some new forms outside. As I returned, I found the library on fire and charred and slashed corpses of the monks everywhere. At last I found my teacher's hut, but I was to late to save him.
As I left, there was a new pathway through the mists of the Shadowfell. I followed it and saw you and them."
BKT explains, flexing his shoulders.

Assisted healing sounds good. Or I just spend the two surges, as he is less drained than the other PCs.

"And you suspect it was these" gesturing to the corpses around them "creatures who attacked your master and you came looking for revenge? Perhaps our goals are aligned... we seek to stop them as well, so strength in numbers and all that" Kalas says, although he still keeps his eyes on the man.
 

Kylek studied Ba-Ka-Thet with a low growl, steam hissing off the immense dragonborn's frame as his icy armour dissipated.

Hmmm, this place has many interesting guests today.

He considered the shifter a moment more.

He has proven himself in battle and I think we can waste little time. The extra body may be of use.

Having given his thoughts on the matter Kylek turned to their surroundings. Bending first over Uganon's body and rather callously searching it, looking for any information, then broadening his inspection to the area they found themselves in.

[sblock=ooc]

Walking Dad you're probably good to spend your surges, given how low some of the others are running I wager we'll have to stop before you're in any danger of running out.

Batin smiles at the newcomer, but does not add anything as he tries to catch his breath.[sblock=OOC]Don't worry, Batin took enough hits for the both of us! ;)

Cov: You fine with the staggered rests so we can get some Healing Words for our surges? Batin would likey. :)[/sblock]
 


Sarenax likewise climbs the rest of the way out of the pit with ease now that the battle is done. He stares coldly at Bha-Ka-Thet for a moment before speaking. "You fight well against the Raven Queen's enemies. Her Dark Majesty will welcome your aid."

His comments given, he proceeds into the post-battle ritual becoming familiar to his comrades, ignoring them for the moment. He dips his fingers in Uganon's cooling blood, smears it along the length of his scythe's blade, and intones the first part of his prayer. "Death has claimed these foes, praise to the Raven Queen." Reaching into the large pouch on his hip, he draws a jet black cloth embroidered with a raven's head, using it to first wipe the blade and then his hand. "Death be brought to all enemies of Her Majesty with haste, that she may sit in judgment over their souls." He lifts the soiled cloth high and half-bows his head, the intonation complete, then gathers the cloth into his hand and stows it in the bag once again. The scythe's blade snaps back next to the handle and the massive dragonborn sheathes it over his shoulder.

The cleric then assesses his comrades wordlessly, deciding how much healing each needs. He calls upon the power of the Raven Queen after a few minutes, dark mists seeping from the ground to heal the most grievous wounds.

"These pits seem to lead to burial chambers. I will examine them. Perhaps one of our objectives are within, or some other useful thing." The jet black dragonborn's hollow, emotionless voice bounces off the half-ruined walls, creating echoes in the eerie silence that followed the battle.
[sblock=OOC]Two short rests it is. Have some healing, guys ;)

Apparently Massacre and Kylek emerged unscathed (which means there's 4 injured party members), so Bha-Ka-Thet is getting the other half of a healing word, which will heal him to full with one surge.

1st Healing Word: Kalas and Bha-Ka-Thet.
Kalas: 5d6+5+2d6+56(surge) maxed = 103 hp gained. 194/197 hp, 8/11 surges.
BKT: 5d6+5+36(surge) maxed = 71 hp gained. 143/143 hp, 11/12 surges.

2nd Healing Word: Batin and Sarenax.
Batin: 5d6+5+2d6+41(surge) maxed = 88 hp gained. 160/165 hp, 3/10 surges.
Sarenax: 5d6+5+37(surge) maxed = 72 hp gained. 142/142 hp, 3/9 surges.

[sblock=Post Healing DM's Status Block]Bha-Ka-Thet HP 143/143 Surges 11/12
Massacre HP 102/102, surges 4/7
Batin HP 160/165 Surges 3/10
Sarenax HP 142/142 Surges 3/9, 1 failed death save
Kylek HP 124/124 Surges 12/14
Kalas HP 196/197 Surges 8/11[/sblock]
Once that's done, he'll climb back down into the pit he fell into and search the biers and chamber for anything interesting, and do similarly to the pit in R7. Perception to search the burial chambers (1d20+15=21)[/sblock]

"Yes, our destinies seem to be intertwined. And our success proves the righteousness of this mission in the eye of the Moon God."

after receiving the healing:
"Thanks for your assistance. Maybe I can help you, too." Bha-Ka-Thet says as he moves like a spider into the pit.

[sblock=OOC]
Thanks for the healing assistance. BKT uses his spider technique at will to climb fast and assisting Sarenax in searching the pit.

Kylek efficiently strips Uganon's body of his glowing robes and the wickedly sharp dagger, both clearly powerful magic items. Uganon also had about his person a large quantity of residuum, as well as a beatiful, if slightly gaudy torc of braided platinum studded with rubies and diamonds. Kylek also relieves the corpse of a belt pouch containing seven astral diamonds.

[sblock=treasure]+5 pact dagger, +5 translocating anathema feyleather armor (off of Batin's wishlist), 30000 in residuum, platinum torc worth 55,000g, and seven astral diamonds.

Sarenax and Ba-Ka-Thet descend carefully into the pits to search them. The one Sarenax has been in already proves empty except for five biers of polished white stone, spotlessly clean, as if ready to hold a coffin at any time.

The second pit, to the north, proves more fruitful. Five stone coffins sit on the floor here. Three of them are open, lids shattered and bones strewn across the floor. The other two coffins are intact and undisturbed. In the center of the pit, between the arms of the U-shape formed by the coffins, sits a blood-red crystal the size of a fist, perfectly carved into the form of a raven's skull.
