DT's Old School Campaign- (Chapter 4: The Guild and The Girl)

Lola fiddled with the lock, but had forgotten to check for traps. There is a gasp among the group as a small needle stuck out, poked her in the finger and left some sap, then retracted back into the lock.

Lola has been poisoned, and it looks bad... her thumb is beginning to lose color and turn blue. If that poison continues through her blood stream and up her hand she could lose the hand and it may then continue and stop her heart.

"She's been poisoned!" Hilmdyn exclaims. "We need to stop it from spreading, or she could lose her hand, or even die!" He tries to remember the common poison treatments he used back in his village, and applies the most likely option to the wound.
 

"Ouch!" Lola looked closely at her finger. "Damned thing. I'm not used to picking things that have traps on them. Is my finger supposed to hurt like this?"
 

Edvan blinks then glances quickly at his hand axe. ...And decides now is not the time to make a joke about cutting off her finger. Instead he tries to stay out of the way as Hilmdyn treats the wound.
 

It appears Quinn had a similar thought as his fingers made a hook shap, but comes to the same conclusion as edvan and takes a few steps back to give hill room. he the says, "you be needin any thing like water matey?

without an answer he starts searching for a bucket.
 

Rovan swears and jumps up. He rips his shirt off and grabs a log strip of the rag, holding her hand above her head, Rovan quickly wraps the rag tightly around the base of the thumb trying to stop the poison in the digit.

Rovan looks to Hil "What can we do Hil? You got a spell? Maybe we can take her to a temple or go get a potion or something?" asks Rovan trying to keep calm.
 

Hilmdyn acted quickly along with Rovan, holding Lola steady as Rovan tied off her hand to stop the blood flow. Hilmdyn took out Lola's dagger and cut a deep gash into her thumb and part of her hand, then sucked the poison out and spit it out (-4 hps to Lola from the cut and poison.

With all the excitement Edvan and Quinn crowded in to watch the proceedings, causing Lola to become flushed with anxiety. She began to gasp and twitch until finally she retched up a flow of blood that ushered forth from nose and mouth -2 hps to Lola. The rogue swooned and nearly collapsed, though Rovan caught her.

You have no idea why she coughed up blood. The poison seems to have been mostly removed and the blood only seemed to flow from her after she reached a state of anxiety.

As Hilmdyn and Rovan helped Lola recover, the color began to return to her cheeks. Quinn and Edvan and Erin, having nothing else to do and feeling awkward, instead investigated the still-locked and most likely still-trapped chest. Lola was no longer in any state to work either issue.
 

"I think I got the poison," Hilmdyn says, "but I don't know why she coughed up that blood. Perhaps tonight I can pray to Mhal for an appropriate spell."

OOC: Maybe prepare a CLW and a Neutralize Poison tomorrow? I dunno.
 

Lola wiped her mouth with the back of her hand, making a small line of blood trail across her cheek. She was trembling from the last's few minutes events, afraid at how the poison had affected her.

"I need to uh, clean up,"
she said weakly, "And get some rest. You'll have to excuse me. I can look into the trap tomorrow when I feel better. Or you guys can try to get the hinges broken tonight. I doubt they are trapped. But I'm not sure, if it's just the lock or the whole damned thing."

She began walking to the small room she shared with Rovan but turned back to Hill. "Did you say that um, coughing, wasn't from the poison? What did it come from then?"
 

Quinn has seen amny a new sailor get sea sick, so he begins to clean up the coughed up blood on the floor.

When doen he will assis twhoever is working on the hinges of the chest.
