Rhun's Weekend Game - Dwellers of the Forbidden City - IC Thread

The bison looks around, its hide twitching around the bite wounds irritably. Talshia's voice emanates from nearby, soft with gratitude.

"Thanks to you, Great Lord of the Herd. Evil has been thwarted by your tusk and dauntlessness." She then repeats the benediction in the liquid tongue of Celestials, and the beast snorts at paws impatiently at the ground.

The Namer speaks words of unbinding, and the bison dissolves into golden light...and vanishes.

"Well fought," the wizard's voice purrs then out of thin air. "Our victory here may well catch the attention of someone with true power; almost certainly a spellcaster of some kind. Be wary as we forge ahead."

As you finally catch your breath after the hard fought battle, Abel and Sandor suddenly find themselves back to their normal, humanoid size. Zeddicus' psychic field of force disappears, and the group is left standing among the bodies of the dead.

Abel gives a cry of pain as the adrenaline of the battle wears off and he feels the burning in his veins from the yuan-ti's poison. He falls to one knee, his body weakened by the foul substance.




Abel, saves vrs secondary poison: Fort 18 (success), Fort 13 (Failure), damage: 3 con (reducing him to CON 10 and hit points by 5)

Sandor misses a step as he returns to his normal size. The fear of stepping on his wolf by mistake disappears. "We should take with us or destory as many of the things the Yuan-Ti were carrying, so they cannot be re-used. If someone would like to volunteer, that is fine. I suggest if you have a use for anything you see, take it. We can arrange a final division when we escape alive." Sandor's words are matter-of-fact, as if he is trying to stop any divisiveness before it begins. Or he is speaking with his mouth full It's hard to tell.

When Abel staggers to the ground, Sandor rushes to him. "Is there any assistance I can offer you? We must be careful of poison. Everywhere."
 

Abel calls again the the Morninglord as he feels the poison travelling throughout his weakening body. He closes his pained eyes in prayer as he traces the divine symbols in the air before him, letting Lathander purge the poison from his body.

ooc: Lesser restoration
 

Helios grins when the coins are found. "Aha! Something to show for this slog. And I wonder if there's a kicker to boot?"

The fire mage mumbles something obscure in draconic, his hands making a simple gesture. Afterwards he stands staring at the scaly corpses. Without looking away he says, "Oh, and Talshia could I get that wand back? Never know when it might come in handy."

OOC - Casts Detect Magic
 

Lathander's power flows through Abel's body, healing the damage caused by the poison in his system. His internal organs repaired, the cleric regains his feet, taking Sandor's offered hand.

Within the yuan-ti's pouches you find a tidy sum of 27 platinum pieces and 94 gold. Also, beneath the coins in the snake-head's pouch is a small, deep green gemstone.

Helios casts his spell to detect magic, and is rewarded with a soft glow from the well-crafted falchion lying in the weeds. The glow resolves itself into an aura of faint evocation magic.

ooc: Abel still plans on using his healing wand to get everyone up to snuff. I've forgotten how many charges we've used thusfar, so we may have to do a little backtracking.
 

Abel uses his wand to bestow healing upon Seril and himself. You are now all fully healed save for Zeddicus, who is still nursing a minor wound, but who is more than ready to push on.



You have used 5 charges of the wand previously. You have just used 2 more, so a total of 7 charges exepended.

"I suggest we proceed. Our presence has been announced, and we are expected. But still, we should proceed." The Lizardman's somber words are echoed with a howl from his wolf, as he picks up his longspear and proceeds.

He bares his teeth, as if to smile. "Suddenly jumping off a cliff is starting to sound quite reaonable, eh?"
