[Pathfinder] DarkSun: Dangerous Beginnings

[Walking Dad]

You move on. After what seems like eternity and with your water resources nearly depleted, the land around you finally changes. The sandy wastes make room for stony barrens.

 

[kinem]

"Progress, I hope" Kline says as the group keeps walking.

 

[Walking Dad]

You can discern three kinds of cactus:
a spherical purple kind roughly two feet in diameter, a tubular kind that resembles a mass of writhing brains and covers the ground for twenty square yards and a tall tree-like kind with 1-6 branches.

Between your group, that the first one (spherical) is used by elves to poison their weapons and that the tubular one is also called a 'rope cactus'. The tree-like one is edible and provides some liquid, but you remember that they are somehow not save to approach...

 

[Andor]

"Advantage to fighting plants is. You get to pick your range. Usually."

 

[Walking Dad]

After killing the plant from a distance and sating your thirst and hunger, you seem to travel fast.

Finally, you reach an oasis.

The first thing you see, are two mekillots. You can recognize them as the animals that were drawing the wagon you were hold in. The one lying on its side at the water's edge is obviously dead. The other one is confused, frightened, and angry.

"We may want to be careful, it looks like it may attack." Ardon says quietly.

[sblock=ooc]I will attempt a knowlege (nature) check to see if it is likely to attack if we approach 1d20+8=17[/sblock]

[sblock=GM]Looks like it will attack if you will approach the oasis, if no one does a successful Wild Empathy or Handle Animal check. It seems thirsty, BTW.[/sblock]

 

[GandalfMithrandir]

"It looks very thirsty, but it will attack us if we get close, I'm no druid, and not very good with animals, but maybe someone could calm it down."

 

[kinem]

"Thirsty? The oasis is right here. Perhaps the water is tainted, then. We could be in more trouble than we thought. What say our nature gurus?"

 

[Andor]

Gilliam whistles softly. "Big. Too big for so few. Need poison, or a strong mind. Any of you feeling that strong?"
