[LPF] Darkness Rising

[perrinmiller]

Tyrien, Half-elven Archeress

Tyrien nocks an arrow and keeps it trained on the rabbit as she cautiously stalks her way at an angle towards the cave entrance.

While she finds it unlikely the rabbit is the hostile kind, it would not be completely unheard of for a magician to have one in its hat as a familiar. Better to ready an arrow should it suddenly act strange, exhibiting more that simple reproductive intelligence.

She signals the others to approach the cave entrance from the West.

The rabbit notices Tyrien as she creeps forward a bit more. Not knowing what a bow is, the rabbit keeps munching on its grass. But when the shadow of the hawk passes across the hill, the rabbit bolts and scampers off into its own barrow. Keeling, high above, screeches his disappointment in the elf.

Sneaking up carefully, the party finds an empty cavern entrance. The path inside is narrow and dark.

OOC: I think we all just got punked. I mean were we really expecting it to go down like this

 

[Satin Knights]

[sblock=ooc]I don't have official stats on a Vorpal Bunny. The proper Wolf in Sheep's Clothing would be a bit of a tough fight at the moment. That, and he is not in the script, so I just left it there, dangling as bait. Expect the unexpected. When I approved this script, I did a major overhaul rewrite for HM to bring it down from impossible to simply vicious.

So, light sources? Marching order? Prep buffs before entering the cavern?[/sblock]

Larissa draws her blade, and casts a light on the pommel. "How long is the tunnel?" She asks the Father quietly, as she takes her place at the head of the group.

[sblock=ooc]Need to know length of tunnel before deciding on buffs. Proposed marching order: Larissa -- Agno -- Tonris -- Father Reinos -- Tyrien. I favor giving the Lightstick to Agno.

With her new spell level, Larissa has a very important buff she wants to put on Tyrien and Agno's arrows. But that should probably go on as we near the end of the tunnel.

As for getting punked, it's better if the GM is laughing because you were too scared, rather than not scared enough.

"It took me about an hour to walk out when we left. Escape tunnels are no good if they let out where the sieging army stands."

 

[mfloyd3]

Larissa nods. "Warn me when we get close to the other end," she tells the Father. "I have some preparations I would like to make before we encounter the enemy."

 

[GlassEye]

Agno Phoenicus, priest of Issolatha

Agno advances with the others when Tyrien signals them to do so. He calls Keeling down to perch so they can travel the tunnel which Keeling is sure to let Agno know that he objects to entering, let alone doing so for for any length of time. The tengu sighs.

"Perhaps it is not such a good, hurrr... idea giving you the tongues for speech..."

Agno lines up where directed and accepts the wand of light. He holds it in his left hand ready to counter any darkness from those stalker creatures but seems conflicted on holding the wand ready or holding his bow ready. He fumbles his gear around in his hands then casts light upon his cloak.

[sblock=OOC]I presume you meant the wand when you said lightstick?[/sblock]

Tyrien, Half-elven Archeress

Tyrien relaxes the draw on her bow as Larissa is looking to lead the way into the tunnel.

Before they proceed, she pulls out her Ioun Stone and set is to orbit her head as she asks, "Father, how wide is the tunnel? Do we need to go single file?"

"Any traps we need to know about? What about the possibility of the enemy finding this escape route? Is that likely?"

OOC: I don't disagree with the OOC suggestions. But, those should be proposed in character or Tyrien will not know.

 

[Satin Knights]

"Well, it is easiest walking single file unless you like walking on rough rocks. When the cavern widens, stop. It will get forty feet wide for a stretch of about sixty feet. Do not enter there. If you do without being prepared, more than despair will swallow you. That is all you need to know until we get there."

"I don't know if they found our way out. If they did, they may have also found the defenses the hard way. Not likely they could have bypassed them, so we should be safe up to that point. Well, if they didn't find the outside entrance. Well, I don't know. Seers was a different division. I worked in bindings and acquisitions."

With a light before and one aft, Relios is fine walking in the shadows between.

"Well child, if you aren't going to hide under that cloak, may I? It is most important that at least I get to the interior tower to light the way and drive these creatures out. Sneaking is the best bet for an old man like me. This chain shirt hasn't been oiled in years. Need something to keep its clattering down."
