[LPF] Through the Looking Gate

"Well, it looked quite alive to me" Galandra shrugs while getting closer to the rest of the group.

"What happened sweetie? You scared of the bright thing?" Galandra turns to pet her cat.

Mika carefully approaches the patch where the creature died and slowly stretches out her neck to try to sniff it from a safe distance. Then she nervously swats at the grass to make sure the thing is gone.

Tasanto pulls out a wand and tends to his wounds. After that, he gathers up his weapon and starts to go to the head of the stairs. But, the plants are still looking hungry. "Can someone tell the plants to stop that?"

Maui sits on his haunches a moment licking his wound. Then the big cats pace around the edge of the spell growling until Maui decides to ignore the tangling vegetation and forge his way ahead towards the entrance. He growls something at Taniwha who skips ahead of his master as he battles his way through the difficult area and leads the way just ahead of him. Both begin to sniff out potential danger, unusual or distinctive scents coming from within as they enter the crypt.

[sblock=Actions] Cast CLW on self to heal 8 dmg
Cast Barkskin on self before entering crypt
Cast Greater Magic Fang on Taniwha to enchant all of his natural weapons.

"Tasanto, can you use this one to heal me up a bit?" asks Vincenzo, handing him his own wand of curing.
 

"I can try, but those are for religious types. My wand is for healing those from the other realms. It only works on Nysys." Taking Vincenzo's wand, he waves it about and tries to touch Vincenzo. Before it even gets that far, it sparks and shocks Tasanto. "Ouch! Nope! It don't like me." He hands it back and has to pull out his own again to repair the damage just done.

"Ok, maybe the rescue the cat thing was also a bit ridiculous... maybe I should flip a coin on it. Now that we've come out of this alright, I suppose we should check out the area some more before heading into the crypt. Maybe we can find some clues on what to expect." Lem makes the suggestion, while scanning the skies for any change in weather.

OOC: 1d20+11=18
 

Maui pads back to where Vincenzo stands confounded looking at the wand that had blown up in Tasanto's hands. He nudges the nobleborn fighter and lets out a rumble that sends a tingle of healing energy through his body. He then nips at the sleeve of his clothes and pulls him towards the entrance in obvious impatience at the delay.

"Erh... hold on. I'm new to using magic... uhm... let me see if I can make it stop" Galandra frowns in concern. "Mhhh... Stop..." she concentrates closing her eyes. She opens one eye slowly to check if that was enough.



Spellcraft check (1d20+7=17)


[sblock] Can Galandra stop her entangle spell? xD [/sblock]
 

While "Stop" did not actually do anything to the plants, Galandra does in fact remember the correct phrase to dismiss the plants. In a second, the plants start to recede back to their original forms, allowing the rest of the group to eventually get to the entrance.

Lem, looking skyward, does notice something odd. The lightning getting generated in the clouds do in fact seem to subside a little bit, but does not cause the storm to dissipate. No more lightning strikes are occurring now, which seems to be the only real benefit right now.

Both Maui and Taniwha take a good long sniff of the damp musky air emanating from the crypt. However, nothing seems odd to them via their smell, but Maui's ears do in fact pick up the sound of flowing water coming up from the crypt.

The crypt descends downward in a single file stair case, beckoning the group towards its depths...
