Planescape - Dead God Rising

[Nalfeshnee]

The man looks up at Kyran. 'You have? Many people are those who work for her, and many more those who work for them. Like the rot, her reach is long, and like the rot it is strong. Vhai'ik fell easily but vhai'ik is merely human. The Mistress is far more than that. Far more and you seek her out like lambs to the slaughter. Turn back now or the pall of a hundred graves will rise against you. You know not what what you do. Turn back now and hide - perhaps that will save you.'

Hail Mary Knowledge (local) check for Mistress Kieria 21

 

[Dire Lemming]

Kyran nods enthusiastically as Vhai'ik speaks "How is it that you were changed, Vhai’ik? And please, teach me of your great goal.”

 

[A'koss]

Kieria...

At the mention of that name Tyrjon perks up from his ministrations of the barmies and ponders... And seeing that Kyran's barmy interrogation seems to be working, continues to remain silent.



[sblock]Knowledge (Planes): Rolled an 11, but realized you can actually Take 10 on Knowledge Checks (for a total of 16).

Edit: Wait... can you Take 20 on Knowledge Checks? [/sblock]

 

[Nalfeshnee]

[sblock=Tyrjon]I'd rule in order to take twenty yolud need books or something like that to help you, though can take 10.

You do seem to remember a barmaid called Keiria, though that was many years ago before the Faction War.[/sblock]

[sblock=Jema]You recall the name Keiria linked with the Dustmen during the Faction War. though more than that is blurry[/sblock]


'Our goal,' continues the man, is to bring back the Lord of Shade and Death, slayer of gods, rightful ruler of the Multiverse. but you are our enemies - you have slain his worshippers. for that you will die. perhaps not at my hands - i am but a servant - but you will die. Mark Vhai'iks' words. You will die.'

 

[Thanee]

Llyra

Llyra shrugs. “Great, now we know that we will end up in the Dead Book eventually. Everyone does. Not such a big realization, really.”

 

[Nalfeshnee]

'Not everyone woman. You will rouse death from its slumber to claim you and hang you from the leafeless tree before you time has truly come. Drop your search and live long lives.

 

[Dire Lemming]

Doing his best to feign worry, Kyran says; "We knew not who we fought, please tell us if there is there some way we may gain your lord's forgiveness."

 

[Nalfeshnee]

Vhai'ik is no leatherhead, berk. If you do not yet adhere to the Lord Tenebrous's tenents, your time is up.

Rubious shakes his head at the man's words. His face is grave, his eyes dulled, absorbing wvery word the man has spewed so far.

OOC: those of you who would know general planar history would know the story surrounding Tenebrous: Orcus tried to become a deity, but succeeded only insofar as becomming a different entity entirely. Tenebrous wracked havoc in his short time as a deity, killing a handfull of other gods (including Kieransalee and slaying and taking the place of the Modron leader Primus), before he was slain by adventurers under a decade ago

 

[Deuce Traveler]

Noch chuckles and shakes his head, then makes a looping motion with his finger by his head to show the man is barmy, "Tenebrous dirtnap." Noch leans back and crosses his arms, closes his eyes, and sticks his tongue out as if grotesquely dead.
