No Man's Land (IC)

[Jemal]

*OOC: Does whin know that, or is anybody going to tell him? Sense Motive +2.. I didn't give him ranks b/c he's not used to trying to discern truth from fiction...*

"And what problems would be troubling you, Sire? I am a renowned 'trouble solver' where I come from... Depending on the TYPE of trouble, if you know what I mean." Whin Grins and glances at his companions "Perhaps if we could help you, you could help us find some more information, since you obviously want the same thing we do?"

 

[Nephtys]

Yashar the war Troll

Yashar is greated by the now greatly relieved soldiers on horses.

"Oh thank the gods, your not one of the Fire Hordes are you? That must make you a religious warrior. We were getting nervous. After all, those attacks of theirs are striking closer and closer towards our borders."

"My kind is not known for our love of fire," Yashar replies, grinning mirthlessly with far too many sharp teeth. "But nor do I fear it."
He looks back over his shoulder, towards the elven city, before turning back. "I had a little run in with one of their armies not far from here, near the funeral pyre that used to be an elven city. So it seems you're swiftly running out of time."
"But where are my manners? You may call me Yashar and I am indeed with the Gods. And you must be men of Thrall?"

 

[Brother Allard]

OOC: If Morrigan cast Miracle to emulate Find the Path to find the spot in Shadow coterminous with Thrall, would that work? If so, then he will. If not, I have some more thinking to do.

The travellers on the boat continue their conversation with the old man as the ship makes its way to the island. It arrives at its destination, a modest little port with a single house on a hillside. The group has never been so happy to see land.

"There you are, my newfound friends. Land Ho!. You will find that we are at the Northwest of the Island. Below us is a grand mountain range protected by the nicest group of Nomadic Barbarians. To the East of us... well I wouln't really suggest you venture into that area. Now if you'll excuse me, its time for my midday nap. I'm not as energetic as you youngsters."

Thorn smiles, obviously rather liking the old man. It wasn't often she got the opportunity to feel relaxed in her calling, but the captain of this ship somehow put her at ease despite her natural paranoia. With a little regret, but no hesitation, she vaults over the side of the ship to land on the pier below. With no other obvious destination, she heads for the house at an easy gait...intentionally allowing any of the others who care to go with her to catch up.

Munthrek steps off the boat and takes in his surroundings. Tekumo leaps off the boat into the air, happy to return to his true form. "Thank you again for your hospitality Phelan. He walks over to where Tekumo has landed by the sea and looks around some more. "Does anyone know how we can get back in touch with the others?"

 

[Unkabear]

Whin Grins and glances at his companions

As Whins glance passes him Grift shakes his head near inperceptively.

(ooc bluff 33 to everyone aside from Whin to notice my innuendo letting him in on the king lying http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1019 )

Sylvie says good bye to the captain, and thanks him for the ride. She then deceides to tag along with Thorn for the moment - since she is moving... and Sylvie is impatient. ;-)

"Soooo... Thorn is it? I am Sylvie. Any clue about how to get were ever we were supposed to be going?"

 

[Shayuri]

"Frankly, at the moment I'm not even sure where on the island we -are- supposed to be going," Thorn replies, giving the sylph an appraising glance. Fey were borderline cases in her experience. Some were vicious predators, others playful nuisences, and some could even be rather pleasant. Not that she'd be acting against this 'Sylvie' of course. Strictly against orders.

She points at the cabin as it gets steadily closer. "That looks like the only place we'll find answers though."

Jareel Arinthis Monk 20 hp: 201/201

"Captain, I thank you for your hospitality and conveyance to the island." Jareel bows to the old man.

"Perhaps you could indulge me in one last favor and tell me what you know of this islands geography and political make-up? I'd like to add it to the rough map I am making."

[sblock=OOC] Do you want rolls for gather info, diplomacy, etc, etc? What I am looking for is a basic map of what the island look like with any large cities and or faction info.[/sblock]

Once Jareel is done conversing with the Old Man, he will then take his leave of the magical ship.

"Ho there Munthrek, that is an interesting conundrum. The question we may need to answer is, do we want to get back in touch with the others? It is quite obvious that in our time of need, they abandoned us. Only Lowryllyth was honorable enough to come to our aid."

"I say this to you, let us join forces and do what our patrons ask of us, together. For I feel that you are an honest soul and are sworn to a similar code of ethics. We will all need help along this journey, and I desire someone who can be relied upon."

 

[moritheil]

The Lady pauses for a second at Ichiru's question, pondering how to best describe her skills to the world. Apparantly deciding on a method, she looks over to her companions.

"I do believe actions speak louder than words"

With that, she suddenly drops a dispel magic on Ichiru [sblock=Ichiru Only] (OOC: Dropping Mindblank, Starmantle, and Greater Luminous Armor) [/sblock]

Afterwards, before anyone can react, she discharges a horrid mental attack in the form of 60ft cone at her party members (OOC: Will save, DC 42. Failure means you are stunned for 11 rounds)

"Satisfied?"

[sblock=saves]
Will save: 37 http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1021109
Reroll using luckblade 1: 36 http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1021152
[/sblock]

OOC: That is one heck of a dispel if it's standard dispel magic. The DC for this dispel check is 11 + the spell’s caster level, and dispel caps the dispeller's level bonus at +10, so right off the bat she's having to roll a 21 on a d20 to drop GLA . . . is there some error? Even if we only look at Mind Blank, she has to roll 17+.

Should I assume she rolled well for initiative as well to be able to act again before either of us?

[sblock=DM]I'm asking because if it's greater dispel magic, Ichiru is protected from that.[/sblock]
