Rhun's Greyhawk ALPHA Campaign (ToEE) - Part II - CLOSED!

[Rhun]

The battle is over; though two guards escaped, the rest tasted savage justice at the edge of your blades. Though the fighting hadn't lasted much more than a minute, a minute of non-stop combat without break is tiring, especially with the number of wounds each of you have suffered. You each take a minute to recover your breath and treat your wounds as best you can, but the fight has left your company is sorry condition.

While Kurt tends to your wounds, Trevor and Verdis stand watch. Dara and Coraine find themselves standing in a ten foot wide corridor, that appears to have served as a guardroom of sorts...




Round 11 complete above.

More to come tonight; I don't have my books with me at work.

Dara

It takes a moment before the adrenaline rush calms down and Dara drops against the nearest wall, visibly exhausted.

“That was close... hope they got the others as well. This one here was trying to do something at this wall... possibly a hidden doorway.”

Once the group has gathered again and Dara finds out that the other two guards managed to get away...

“We need to relocate, quickly, they might come back with reinforcements.”

"Yes, Dara, I agree completely! I will not live through another fight unless I am healed. Let us quickly gather our wits and our things and retreat from this evil place!"

 

[Legildur]

Kurt critically surveys the scene. "Aye, it was too close for comfort," he agrees. Putting away the wands, Kurt then picks up and sheathes his longsword. Taking out his holy symbol, Kurt prays momentarily, exuding the healing power of Hieroneous through his act of Sacred Purification.
ooc: everyone cured of 13 hits points through two uses of Turn Undead for Sacred Purification.

"Many thanks, Friend Kurt!" "And now, let us find more evil ones to slay!"

 

[Rhun]

The power of Hieroneous heals the worst of your hurts, and soon all of you are feeling much better than you had been just a short while ago. You are dirty, covered in blood and gore, tired, and still injured, but no longer are any of you in danger of bleeding to death or falling over from pain.

The bodies of the dead lie sprawled and heaped all about, their weapons and shields scattered. All is quiet; even the heavy footfalls of the fleeing guards have disappeared completely.

The corridor in which Dara and Coraine stand apparently housed some of these warriors. Double bunks line the walls, enough to sleep eight men. Each has a straw mattress, and two wooden boxes underneath, head and foot. Each wall sconce holds a torch, but only the southern most are lit. A small brazier in the middle of the corridor holds several bricks of burning coal, taking the chill from the air. A few rough chairs and small tables stand between the bunks, cluttered with personal items. Miscellaneous clothing, weapons and such hang from wooden pegs set into the stone walls.




1183 XPs gained each; you are (most likely) 1 encounter away from 5th level.

Trevor will begin to check the boxes beneath the bunks, carefully inspecting each for traps before opening them.

"Hey, why not! We might as well see if there's more loot to be had to make all the punishment we've been absorbing at least somewhat more worthwhile!"

Skills: Search +8, Open Locks +13

 

[s@squ@tch]

Coraine

Turning to Dara,"Care. I'm sure he was trying to activate some sort of opening mechanism in the wall to make his escape -- who knows what reinforcements or additional troops lie beyond this wall."

OOC: If we are to bug out, VERdis should check over the goods in the room for any magical auras to take with before they disappear.

 

[Legildur]

Kurt quickly sizes up his companions, and uses the Wand of Lesser Vigor some more, just to be sure they are safe.
ooc: uses Wand of Lesser Vigor - one charge each on Dara, Trevor, Kurt and Ragnok. I think that is +11 hps each??

Trevor Champlaign, Human Rog2Ftr2,AC20/16/14,HP27/30,Lngswd+8,1-8+3, F+8,R+8,W+3

"Wow, thanks again, Kurt! I feel like the King of the World again!"
