Insight's Dark Sun: Burning Sands Campaign - IC

[Shayuri]

Amica coughs and stumbles in the driving sand, then forces her way back to her feet and forwards until she was dimly aware that sand wasn't raising new welts over her skin. It gave her existing welts time to sting and itch; a scant blessing.

She cautiously opened her eyes, and wasn't instantly blinded by a wall of sand. Her skin was red and raw though, and she 'tched' to herself. There methods of healing with The Way, but that had not yet been part of her training.

With her condition estalished, Amica looked around the mine entrance at any others who'd made it that far.

OOC - Argh. Double post. Enworld's slow for me today and I lost faith! I REPENT!

 

[drothgery]

Brandis moves as fast as he can into the mine shaft to wait out the sandstorm.

 

[Insight]

OOC: Round Ten is up and ready for posts. Just need actions for Zimno and Korg. Don't forget your Endurance checks!

 

[stonegod]

Zimno grunts non-committally. We must survive the storm first, if it is afar. Then kill any of Njeer that yet remain. He continues onward to shelter.

Korg

Korg continues his run for the mine entrance.

[sblock=OOC]
Korg was the only one who mentioned to use run (+2 movement) and not simple move to go back, so he should arrive with or before the others, not after them.

standard to move: run toward mine entrance.
move: run toward mine entrance.

I have already stated that, due to the conditions, characters cannot run in the sandstorm. Regardless, Korg gets there at the end of the round.

 

[Insight]

OOC: Round Ten is now complete. Each character earns 250xp. We will now drop out of combat rounds. This is the end of the first encounter. Also, everyone earns one action point. If you did not spend an action point, you now have two (the maximum you can have at the heroic tier).

Korg

"Everyone made it? What should we do now? Pretend nothing happened?" Korg asks the others, but somewhat sure they don't want to stay slaves in the long run. "Maybe this thing wasn't the only one of it's kind here. Maybe we digged to deep..."

Amica shakes her head.

"If there are more," she says softly, almost whispering, "then they still sleep. For now. We will also have to deal with that one again someday."

She hugs her thin arms around herself and shivered, as if a cold wind was blowing over her. It is with evident relief that she turns away from the mine entrance and starts heading further down the shaft.

"Look for food...water...may be here a long time" she says vaguely.
