[LPF] A Soul Indiscretion

[toasterferret]

Seeing the count of opponents drop dramatically, Falkner lashes out with his sword at the squid-goblin in B6!

 

[Aldern Foxglove]

The inspirational boost from Zelena's song gives Falker the extra edge he needs to skewer the grindylow! The blow is just sufficient to steal consciousness from the beast and it falls lifeless!

OOC: The Duke is up! but prone. Followed by Zelena.

[sblock=Damage]He actually does 5 damage as I forgot to add the bardic music +1..[/sblock]

 

[AxeM]

The Duke coughs "Thanks *cough cough*"

The Duke will then stand up and retrieve his Meteor Hammer.

 

[Aldern Foxglove]

OOC: Zelena is up!

[sblock=AxeM]Nothing about the unconscious condition says you drop your weapon, I generally either assume you reflexively maintain your grip, or that it is so close to hand it does not take an action to retrieve it - afterall you are already prone down there with it. Feel free to spend a move action if it helps with versimlitude for you, but you are not required to do so.[/sblock]

 

[Songdragon]

Seeing her song work it's magic to help defeat many of the creatures her song ceases as she moves around her companions (to7B) She slashes at the remaining squid beastie...

[sblock=Actions]Move (move action)
Attack (standard Action) 1d20+1=2
Missing, badly... sucks! [/sblock]

 

[Aldern Foxglove]

With a high pitched squeal the last grindylow withdraws darting back from fury and trying to surge past Borric to open water - offering the foul mouthed fighter a single opportunity to strike as it does so.

"I was routing for you all along!" Swayze shouts down cheerfully. "Squid goblins boo! You lot hurray!"

OOC: Borric has an attack of opportunity. But whatever the result... VICTORY!

[GlassEye]

Fury surges up to his feet shedding nasty water and curses as he stands. "If I had known there were that many I wouldn't have stepped out into the water so quickly. In the future, if you see something sing out so those of us whose vision isn't so keen aren't taken unawares like this again."

He reaches down to give Falkner a hand up. "Thanks for having my back."

 

[Songdragon]

Zelena watches the creature flee... she turns, sheathes her blade and offers an arm to Falkner so that he can finally stand, "Up you come."

She looks about... "Shall we see to this?" she says making an ewwe face at the ick the party is now standing within.

She takes up her cudgel and starts moving things around... will move the bodies closer to the others...

 

[Aldern Foxglove]

As Zelena swims - the water being higher than she is - towards the bodies it becomes obvious why the grindylows have brought them here, they have been feasting upon the bloated decayed flesh. Taking a second look at the odd aquatic creatures corpses it is obvious that they have gorged themselves near to bursting...

Zelena can see clothing and even the dull gleam of precious metal in the murky water at the far end of the basement where the bodies were gathered. It will obviously take some grizzly searching about in the water to uncover any clues or valuable that were on the bodies persons.

The partially intact corpses themselves are in a truly disgusting state. Flies swarm around the, and their pale white skin is crisscrossed with red and purple gashes and cuts which stand out in clear contrast to the white. This contrast makes it easy to spot a crudely cut picture of a frog holding two knives upon the back of one dismembered torso. Further searching might give up more clues, but it will be an appalling task.

OOC: Search checks for the corpses and the water, if you wish to look for clues/loot.

[sblock=GlassEye and Songdragon]
You recognize the frog symbol as belonging to the most violent of the Ranocchio's street gangs. The Croakers.[/sblock]

 

[toasterferret]

As his companions help him up out of the muck, he nods to them each in turn.

"Anytime Fury, saw you run in there and didn't know how long that illusion would hold, and figured I have a hell of a lot more metal between me and them than you do..."

"And thanks for the assistance Zelena, you were a lifesaver."

Falkner holds his hand to the wound in his side and takes a look at the corpses.

"Does anyone know what that symbol carved into them is? It looks like a signature of some kind...."
