[IC] Wandering Star : Heroes of the Middle Reaches (Part One)

[helium3]

Jorje's attempt to aid succeeds.

[sblock=OOC]Arcana aid check roll was 28.[/sblock]
Despite Jorje's supremely competent assistance, it is as if the failure of two of his assistants throws off his concentration. Pieter cannot muster the skill to bring the ritual to completion.

[sblock=OOC]Endurance checks from the amulet wearer's please. The DC is still 10.[/sblock]

 

[nerdytenor]

Horto barely manages to maintain his strength. Though he would not like to admit it, the ritual is beginning to wear him down.

OOC: Endurance 10

 

[The Digger]

Despite her anxiety, Charlie opened an eye to stare as she heard the yelps of pain around her. She gulped as she realised it was her turn to perhaps suffer. Gritting her teeth she swiftly closed her eyes and kept them shut tight.

Surprisingly the pain this time was almost nothing.

[sblock=OOC]Endurance: 15: Roll Lookup [/sblock]

 

[Walking Dad]

ooc: sorry, was sick.

[Blackrat]

Regaining control was not easy for Z', but he did it nonetheless.

OOC:1d20+5=11

Like the others, Petra continues to assert his will and control the amulet around his neck. "It seems as if this is getting easier."

Outside the circle, Pieter mutters, his brow furrowed in concentration. "Were almost done here. I just have to get this last stanza right."

[sblock=OOC]Aid checks from the orb holders, please. Sorry about the delay. No excuse really, just sorta checked out for a bit.[/sblock]

 

[Redclaw]

Apparently encouraged by the promise of an end to the process, Varilar jumps as he hears one of the magic words, touching his orb to the glyph almost before Pieter finishes speaking it.
[sblock=ooc] aid 17[/sblock]

 

[helium3]

[sblock=OOC]I rolled for both Ranver and Jorje this time.[/sblock] Pieter is unable to master the intricate words and movements of the fourth stanza even with the expert assistance of Varilar, Ranver and Jorje. He will have to try again.

[sblock=OOC]Endurance checks from the amulet wearers, please. The DC continues to be 10.[/sblock]

 

[nerdytenor]

Horto holds on again, wishing he were in the midst of some battle instead.

OOC: Endurance 14

 

[Walking Dad]

ooc: Sorry, mixed up amulet and orb holder. Will roll next time!
