[LPF]Treasure Hunt

[Artur Hawkwing]

Marcus blinks at the sound and shivers a little.

Oh, man. That doesn't sound good.

He watches the floating lights move to that side of the room. Sighing he eases past the caster and walks cautiously to the most likely candidate for the sound, in his mind, and he leans over, ear not quite on the lid, listening. As he does so, he eyes the worn stone box for any remaining markings.

OOC: doing these checks for the sarcophagus located in D5

 

[sunshadow21]

As Marcus examines the corner sarcophogi, what appears to be a humanoid head attached to bat wings appears in the sarcophogi next to him, and it lets out a loud shriek as it prepares to emerge from its home deep inside the sarcophogi.

I need Fortitude saves from everyone. DC 12 or be afraid.

[DalkonCledwin]

Fae'shiel's face scrunches up in an anguished look as the floating head makes a screaming noise, not really wanting to fight a flying enemy but also not wanting to flee she tries to make the best of the situation.

[Artur Hawkwing]

Marcus' eyes grow wide as the head with wings flaps around and screeches. His head lifts from the sarcophagus he is listening to...

[rolling fear save here]

OOC: If we all save with exactly 12, I'm going to have to go to the hospital and get my sides stitched from laughing so hard

Marcus shakes off the screech and pulls his hammer from behind his back, the look on his face shifting from surprise to pure, unadulterated anger.

[sblock=Bad Joke]Am I the only one wondering if this beasty is light headed? Could be worse, I could have thanked SS21 for the heads up. [/sblock]

 

[Ehdge]

OOC: I am so sorry for not posting for so long. For some reason, I stopped getting any email updates from ENWORLD. I'm at work now, but will try to contribute this weekend.

OOC: Sorry, I said 'Will Save' because I thought that was the normal roll vs fear. My Fort save I am actually a little better at, so I don't know if you need me to roll again or not.

 

[sunshadow21]

OOC: Technicallly, according to the creature's writeup, it's supposed to be paralysis, but I figured I'd give you guys a break and slightly reduce the penalty. The fight will be challenging enough as it is.

 

[sunshadow21]

OOC: The party is up. The shriek was in the surprise round.

 

[Ehdge]

Ehdge steps up next to Marcus and attacks the vile creature.

OOC: Taking a 5' step before attacking. Moving to C-4.

[sunshadow21]

Ehdge manages to catch the creature just as it is exiting the sarcophogi, and separates the head from the wings holding it aloft in one clean swing. Searching around the room, the party is able to find a few odds and ends that previous looters have passed over, but over all, the room has been stripped pretty clean of whatever it may have once had it in treasure wise.

[Artur Hawkwing]

[sblock=ooc]Ehdge so loves his work with that greatsword. With him as tank, Marcus will be able to sit back and pincushion stuff. I hope you guys like the post I'm about to lay down. Favored Enemy and all that rot you know.[/sblock]

Marcus is caught trying to turn as the thing whizzes past his head and right into the path of Ehdge's expertly handled sword. He watches in satisfaction as Ehdge catches the thing on his sword. Despite this, before joining the others in looking about, Marcus takes his hammer and wallops the remaining larger pieces until they are pulverized. With this done, he pauses to catch his breath, as he has begun breathing heavily, and sets about cleaning the gore from the hammerhead with whatever happens to be handy before returning it to this back with a satisfied smile.
