Legacy of Death Part II: Graves of Lesser Immortals

[TerraDave]

Ghen starts the ritual, it takes some time.

Everyone else...?

 

[ecayford]

Forge will guard Ghen while he performs the ritual in case the snake doesn't like being lowered.

 

[Flaming Bob]

Lucien takes up guard on the door we entered from.

 

[dyermaker001]

As suggested, once the water is lowered, Nar will use Mage Hand to retrieve the key. (which, by the way, we still have no use for)

 

[Buckthorn]

Buckthorn thanks Ghen for the healing. Just in case, Buckthorn will go affix a rope to something and drop a length of rope into the river. "Just in case."

 

[TerraDave]

Buckthorn ties some rope on a tree next to the obelisk.

About 5 minutes pass as Ghen calls forth the relevant spirits, then the water starts to shift, just barely...

The serpant makes its reaperance, lurching for the shifter, but with Forge right there, strikes at the dwarf instead.

He is hit, takes damage, and it hurled into the river.

(Make an athletics check to swim/grap rope).

 

[Flaming Bob]

Seeing the attack, Lucien lunges into Forge's place to protect the shifter.

 

[TerraDave]

Lucian takes position. Seconds latter (on Ghen's turn), it lashes out and...just misses the rogue!

But the ritual has a ways to go yet.

 

[dyermaker001]

If Nar-Heru can, he will cast scorching burst at the serpent.

 

[TerraDave]

The serpent comes out and goes back into the pool...it was attacked by those ready to...but what the hey

Since Nar-Heru is intelligent...he waits for the serpent to come out again and scorches it! It lets off some steam, but otherwise is little affected (arcnana: may be a water thing).

It lurches for the rogue, and...just...hits him. Lucian takes damage and it chucked into the river.

(I need athletics checks now for both Forge and Lucian)
