Redclaw's Eyes of the Lich Queen

[EvolutionKB]

The fact that the crew doesn't like him is not surprising, though what they have against his brother is puzzling. "Go ahead and take the items Alexa. If there is indeed poisonous creatures in the jungle that we should fear, perhaps brother you can prepare some spells to restore our strength if the poison takes effect?"

When Sur'kil says that he will be staying behind, Talas is not surprised. He really didn't expect the scholar to come on their journey with them. He merely waits to hear Bregan scathing remarks about their employer, for they are sure to come.

At Drekhad's proclamation, Talas raises his fist in affirmation. "Let's go, there is some artifacts waiting to be found!"

Nice - we pass from poisonous glares to a poisonous swamp...

Cholas looks strangely at his brother - the only spells he can prepare, are in the form of bought scrolls and preparations...
"The blessings in my power to impart aren't so powerful, but the Flame will bolster us against the worst jungle poisons. But it won't last long.
However, I've some compounds in my backpack that will be perfect for minor inconveniences.
We could see if here they have something more specific against the local poisons, along with those cold iron weapons..."

 

[Redclaw]

It's easy to find just about anything related to preventing or abating the effects of poisons. In fact the gates near the exits from the city into the interior of the peninsula are crowded with entrepreneurs hawking antitoxins and potions.

Finding cold iron proves a bit more challenging as it is a specialized item. It would take some time and asking around (Gather Information roll), with the risk of drawing attention to yourselves if you're not successfull.

"Hah! This swamp sounds rather dangerous. I wonder what other hazards there are to fear here!"

Oops I was thinking that favored souls could change their spells daily like a sprit shaman, my mistake.[/sblock]

"Yes, sorry brother my mistake. Either way we will need ways of dealing with poison, other than the antitoxin, anybody have any suggestions?"

"Indeed Drekhad, you asked what dangers might we encounter in the swamp, besides the obvious ones already mentioned. Let me tell you..."

Bregan runs through everything that he can remember about this area. It had been awhile since he had traveled here and would probably remember more later.

[sblock=talas] Jungles tend to be hot and humid and very dense in terms of undergrowth. As such it is often possible to be 20' away from something and not see it (meaning concealment is a possibility). The previous information gives you a good idea of potential animal encounters, and you know little else about this particular jungle (knoweldge (geography) might be the better roll for that). Antitoxin is the best bet for helping with minimizing the effect of poison, and lesser restoration is a great spell for removing the damage.[/sblock]

[sblock=onlythestrong] What you're describing is more of a knowledge (local) or knowledge (geography) than nature. Knowledge (nature) would give you the basics of the jungle terrain type (hot, humid and densely covered in undergrowth, animals as described above). The others might give you some information about Q'barran jungle in particular. [/sblock]

Bregan sits by himself, watching the others. He carefully checks every small detail of his armor and weapons. The kind of enviroment they were headed for would be hard for most of them to navigate. He would have to do a good job to keep them all alert.


**edit** [sblock=ooc]

Nah, it won't be worth getting them until we either know we need them or get discovered. My opinon, could be wrong (I've been wrong before )

Talas

Talas waves his hands around his face, clearing the air around him momentarily of some flying insects. "We might pick up a few more vials of antitoxin, or some scroll or potions of lesser restoration. Once we are done shopping, I am ready to go."

[sblock=ooc]Trying to keep things moving along...Was anybody wanting to try gather information and risk drawing attention to ourselves to get some cold iron arrows? I don't think it is a good idea right now, especially when our employer seems to want us to kind of lay low. I'd be willing to buy a scroll of lesser restoration. Anybody else?[/sblock]

Alexa shoulders her haversack and readies her gear. "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of lesser restoration scrolls. Let's just be careful, hey?"

[sblock=OOC]By the way, Alexa is not an archer She doesn't even own a bow. Her ranged capability is represented by the daggers she keeps hidden on her person.[/sblock]
