Redclaw's Eyes of the Lich Queen

Hedowin, Mage 5, Hp: 10/21

"What the????" Hedowin says as he notices the ear-ily challenged man approach the group.

"As least you don't have scales." He says.

"Mind telling me who this Sur'kil fellow is, and why I should trust or believe you? You wouldn't happen to work for a black dragon, would you?"

Kason keeps his hands up and his tone nice and level. "That'd be the fellow who hired you. Something about the ocular device of the lizard. Sent me around to make sure things are going smooth."

The man, Brelish by his accent, looks around the group "You all sure match the description of the lot I'm supposed to be helping. More or less."

"And no, I don't work for any dragon, black 'r otherwise."

Grumbling slightly that the wand is of divine origin, he turns to the shifter druid.

"I believe this would be best suited with you. It is capable of producing a moderate curative effect, roughly more than 3 dozen times before its magicks will be used up."

With a wan smile,"I wouldn't mind at all if you tried it out on me."

Chevri struggled along with the others back to the campsite. Her wounds obviously bothered her, but she kept up easily, moving through even the most tangled jungle terrain without difficulty. Once they settled into their campsite, she used a little of her wand's healing magic, then did what she could to assist Bregan with getting food for the group.

Once Hedowin offered the new wand, she nodded wearily. "My thanks for this. I feel that it will be quite valuable- I know that I have never used so much power in such a short time..." And with that said, she set to work, making her way through the campsite to see who else was hurt.

OOC: Adding the CMW wand to character sheet; One charge of CLW wand for self (11 of 50); then one charge each for Hedowin, Alexa, and herself. Anybody else want some healing? Chevri will also use her Survival to assist Bregan in any foraging chores- either as her own roll or an "Aid another" attempt. CLW 1d8+1= 9; roll

Cure moderate (3 charges so far- Hedowin, Alexa, Chevri in order; 2d8+3 each); Hedowin 11 HP; Alexa 15 HP; Chevri 9 HP; rolls http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1619351/
 

Later:

Chevri had retreated to one corner of the campsite, and scratched out a safe spot for her bedroll up against the comforting roots of the tree. With many of the minor tasks of the afternoon attended to, she sank into a passive meditation, letting the sights and sounds of the jungle strengthen her once more. Even being captured by the smaller lizardfolk had not been quite so traumatic as the battle they had just fought, and she was more than a bit upset. Perhaps later they could discuss what they wanted to do next- obviously they had to go back in, but some planning would be needed... When the newcomer made himself known, Chevri shifted around in her bedroll, glaring at him like a badger peering out of its burrow. She had no idea what he was talking about, so she waited, hoping someone recognized him- they did not need any more enemies here...
 

Talas speaks, "It's okay, he's a friend, I think. Sur'kil did hire us," Talas points at himself, Alexa, Drekhad and the shifter. "The other two were prisoners we found. Taken by the lizardfolk, and beat up pretty bad."

"We took a beating in there," Talas points back in the direction of the temple. "We are going to rest here, and journey back in the morning."

OOC: I could use some healing I have somewhere around 14/42 hp
 


holy men 'n shifters so I figured you was them. No eye thing yet huh?
Kason scratches his mangled ear absentmindedly.
Sur'kil's jobs are usually rough... He looks at the former prisoners. You going to stay with us 'n see this thing through?

Chevri curled up a bit tighter in her bedroll, her gaze switching from the newcomer to Talas and back. She gave a soft purring sigh when it seemed apparent that the fellow was not an enemy. "We're not likely to run off alone into the jungle, having seen how that turns out with all the lizardfolk around," she said softly, looking quickly across to Hedowin for a moment as if seeking approval. "But I don't know yet if 'us' is really the right term, since I know you not at all, and even those that have been hired by your Sur'kil don't really seem to know you. If you'll stay here tonight, tomorrow will give a chance to prove your worth, and your loyalties. We killed quite a clutch of the blackscales, but not all of them, and there is a bothersome little dragon in there as well. And now the survivors know we're out here- tomorrow will be quite a test." Her voice was very soft, little more than a whisper, but she did not seem to lack confidence as she voiced her views.
 

While you all set watches and welcome your new party member (sorry for all of the reshuffling), let me reward you with your experience for the "day". Each of the six members of the party earned 1,500 xp for the three encounters inside the temple.
 

Talas 37/42 hp

Talas clasps Chevri's shoulder. "Thank the Flame," Talas pauses pulling his brother's silver arrowhead holy symbol from his belt pouch. He stares at it momentarily before putting it around his neck and tucking it beneath his chainmail, near his heart. "My brother would approve of both of you as regular companions. It would be our honor if you would continue this journey of ours. We all know we could not have made it this far without both of you. If you wish to see this out to it's end, we can speak with our sponsor, and he can make sure you are suitably rewarded for your efforts."
Talas stands up to his full height and speaks to the brawler. "You on the other hand haven't proven anything, other than you know a name. You don't seem THAT tough, so you can stay, at least until we get back to our patron. Let's hope that you know how to fight a dragon."
