No Man's Land (IC)

[Voidrazor]

OOC: Oops! I edited the previous post while you sent yours Darimaus. I'm guessing neither of us is all that certain of the correct direction.

IC:
Lowryllyth lays a gentle but massively clawed hand on the paladins shoulder, "Wait here. I'll contact you within 20 minutes with the correct direction to go." Without waiting for reply she takes off at tremendous speed.

Obsidian & Granit

Obsidian ventures along the plains until finds himself at the edge of a massive desert. Plodding his way through the sand, the Construct makes his way through the baron landscape for three days before he manages to come to the edge of the dead land. Not that his alternative proves any more filled with life. In front of him is a gigantic volcano, lava spewing down its sides, clouds of ash pouring out. It is at this time that travel becomes more difficult, for Obsidian must avoid the horrid rivers of molten rock that can even harm one such as himself. (OOC: From you I will need a spot/listen check, and a roll for initiative please.)

Obsidian gives the volcanic scenerie a cautious eye. Knowing that anyone of these rivers could end his existance with little effort. He judges the size of the molten rivers of rock and prepares himself for a series hops, skips and jumps.

OOC: Inititive: 11, Spot: 14, Listen: 7, Depending on the type of attack received (ranged vs melee) and the number of possible targets (3 vs many) that may be around he will still attempt to put a river of magma between them and him if he can. Jump check +32.

Current effects: Minor Displacement: 20% miss chance.

Munthrek quickly gazes over the destruction of the three boats, thoughts of how to rescue all the survivors racing through his head. "Thorn! Help me find the biggest peice of boat! We need to get all those who survived into one place!"

Sylvie goes visible as she hears the call of those gathering survivors and shouts (if needed), "Hi there. I am looking for surivors over here by the remains of this boat (#10)."

She will see who/what she can find, and incidentally will loot any dead bodies along the way of magic items they no longer need... Since most on this expidition should have at least some items magic or spell effects running (if still alive), she should be able to spot the live/dead ones with her arcane sight pretty easy I would assume.

 

[Shayuri]

Thorn reappears on the largest floating boat fragment she can find, and uses her rope to lash another good sized piece of flotsam to it. She ties off the rope that Muntharek tosses her onto this as well, then starts helping aboard.

When she hears Sylvie, Thorn calls, "Survivors over here! All survivors here!"

(note - Thorn has Evasion, so no damge from lightning, but the poison works... What spell was that? )

 

[Necro_Kinder]

Munthrek opens his mouth to speak, but Lowryllyth flies off before he can speak. He decides to trust her and goes about gathering up the survivors.

Jareel Arinthis Monk 20 hp: 201/201

"By the Gods - this is quite the predicament." Jareel says to himself.

Jareel spots Sylvie and shouts,"Ho there! I see I have a fellow survivor from this ship. I have seen some activity to the west, let us make our way there to the other survivors."

Jareel then makes his way over to the assembling mass where Munthrek was. Either by jumping from piece of wreckage to piece of wreckage, or via swimming (using his pearl of the sirines)

Whin listens to Ichiru with little interest, intent on the maps and pictures. "If there are no objections, once we are finished perusing these as a group, I will keep them for further study." He humphs and shakes his head at the tale of Mivellious. "Yet another mystery in this strange land. What is this possible lead of yours, Daidoji? If we must wait till night, it should be something important. I believe these pictures may be detailed enough to facilitate teleportation, but there is only one way to be certain, and I may have to check them our personally and gather some information while we wait. The people around here are... not very informed."

OOC:

If you think I'm going to lump sum give you all the info on those maps, your greatly mistaken. This falls under the delicate catagory of "Ask and ye shall recieve".

I'm not sure what you meant by that, as most maps are fairly straight forward.. They show how far things are apart, and where they are in relation to each other. These ones also have, apparently, detailed pictures of various places. If there's anything OTHER than that on the map, you'd have to tell me, as I can't ask detailed questions about things I don't know exist.
However, some things I want to know(By combining information i've heard/gathered with what's on the map). More info gathering will come later, but for now here's a list of what Whin is wanting to (eventually) find out:
How far apart are certain cities? (Hail, Grace, the docks we landed in, ).
What interesting features pop out? Are there volcanoes in the middle of nowhere, deserts surrounded by forests, Gigantic forests that are as yet uncharted for some reason, Floating Islands, Mountain ranges...
How large is the Island?
How large is the country we're in, what countries surround it, do I know if any of them are important, how large are they, where have the disicples been spotted in relation to our current location, where were those important battles fought.

I'll think up more later. (Hey, you said ask)

 

[Nephtys]

Yashar follows the attackers, and about an hour later finds himself at the edge of a massive desert. Chasing his targets into the sandy wasteland, he soon gets his first visual on the horde. Before him, an army of Fire Giants, Fire mephits, Fire Elementals and Hellfire Golems plods on, led by a Huge sized Hellfire Wyrm.

ooc: How many?

Yashar looks at the army in the distance, running strategic calculations in his mind. It seemed unlikely he could take on the army by himself. Though perhaps he was a match for the Hellfire Wyrm in single combat, and the only other flyers in the army would probably be irrelevant. On the other hand, he had no reason to fight them and they may be useful as a source of information or as a temporary ally. Indeed, joining with them might be the best way of getting closer to the mysterious source of power that had drawn so many invaders to the island.
He flies closer, rising out of the range of the Fire Giants spears and bows, and approaches the Wyrm. His voice thunders across the desert, "May I have a moment of your time?"

 

[Darimaus]

OOC: Alrighty, I've just had a really long day at work, so I won't be updating until I wake up. I'll only answer one thing tonight... or morning or whatever it is now (see... long day). Shayuri... It was a good ol' fashioned cloudkill.

 

[Fenris2]

shouts,"Ho there! I see I have a fellow survivor from this ship. I have seen some activity to the west, let us make our way there to the other survivors."

Sylvie answers while rubbing the bruise on her head, "Soon as I see if their are any survivors left here. . . What a looovely auspicious start to our quest eh?"

OOC: still looking for survivors... and looting the dead. Once that's done she will head to the meeting point.
