Darksun Killer In Ravenloft PT I

[Jarval]

Odten pulls a mummified hand out of his backpack, hanging the item from a cord running around his neck.

"You want that?" He asks Tallask, pointing at the crystal. Without waiting for an answer, the fingers on the hand twitch, and the crystal starts to move...


OOC: Using Mage Hand to try and pick up the crystal.

Tallask nods. "It's ... it's important. To why we're here, I think. I mean, we've always been here, haven't we? Or have we...." He shakes his head. 'Yes. The crystal will help, I think."

KILLER IN KALIDNAY
DARKSUN / RAVENLOFT
EN WORLD
SEGMENT 104

The Crystal rises and the roses turn to it and puff out red dust. Tallask fills ill but seems okay once he moves away from the dust cloud. Odten has the crystal. Jayde notices that not all of the roses seem to react to movement....strange.

OOC PART ONE
HORROR CHECKS
Ravenloft is a horror-based world. Things that can harm the sane mind require checks. A failed check can be a simple "cold sweat" to catatonic conditions of the mind shutting down. The fact that you folks can remember the Athas' version of Kalidnay requires a check...a serious one at that.
I have done the rolls and will decide what happens. DC was 25
Jayde missed by 2, Odten by 8 and Tallask by 17 (which means I get to be creative)

OOC PART TWO
NEW PLAYERS
I have two official new players. I have invited them to join at anytime. They are "natives" meaning they know Tenk is the King and has always been the king.

OOC PART THREE
RAVENLOFT
Originally I was going to have you folks escape the city before it was "planeshifted" but it didn't work out. Let me know if it is okay that we are in Ravenloft. It is basically the same game but there will be new Saves required (Sanity, Moral, Curses and of course- Horror and Madness)and doing evil or unjust things allow me to play with your characters.

 

[Jarval]

Odten dusts off the crystal, trying to keep his mind off his surroundings. Something is deeply wrong, but he can't quite figure out what.

"Your crystal." He says levelly, passing the gem to Tallask. "Is it important?"

 

[dead_radish]

Tallask nods his thanks.

"It...it could be. Before...before....I...." He blinks, trying to gather his thoughts. "There was an insect. Or a woman. Or... She wanted the crystal. She ... she knows things." His eyes go slightly unfocused for a moment as he looks at the crystal in his hand.

 

[Argent Silvermage]

Three men stand watching the people around the crystal. The one in the middle looks to be a human dressed in sand colored leathers and an off white cloak. His hair is cropped short and light brown with a full beard that is consideribly longer than the hair on his head. He walks toward the group with the crystal and speaks.
"Are you well? You seem a bit shaken." His accent is a bit strange bt not hard to understand. On closert inspection he is carrying a quarterstaff and a bag of documents.

 

[dead_radish]

Tallask regards the man extermely suspiciously. "I am well enough, yes. I do not remember soliciting aid from anyone but my companion, here."

 

[Argent Silvermage]

"Well how common." The Stranger turns to his bodyguards and says, "Obviously raised in the worst of the frontier villages. Practally a Vagabon. Come, we have business to attend to for the King."

 

[silvertable81]

"We already know of our buisness for the King, but first I must check this crystal for a moment."
Jayde reaches out for the crystal, and wraps her mind around it, trying to discern its secrets.

 

[Velmont]

You hear a voice telling: "The boss should care of his own business..."

The voice is the one of one of the human's companion. It was the mule who was talking to the Half-Giant. The Mule seems in good shape, even for a Mule. He is wearing a chitin armor who is protecting his chest, but you can see a scar that come down from his shoulder. A Maquahuilt can be easily seen as his belt. He is presently talking at low voice with the Half-Giant and their conversasion can be hardly heard.
