Shards of Memory--Act I: The Boundless Void

[Rystil Arden]

*Diedrik draws into combat with the daunting Voidwight, shaken like the others by the sheer and utter nothingness of the vortex that calls to him to melt away into nothingness. His blade misses its mark, and the creature turns to him briefly but sets its sights on Yuriko. It slams into her with both claws and pulls her in for a brief mockery of a kiss, but it knows it doesn't have the luxury to finish its meal, so it drops her to keep its defense up. Yuriko gazes up at the creature, her eyes wide and a rapturous distant look on her face, as she drops her weapon and sits there where he dropped her, beginning to drool vacantly.*

(OOC: Diedrik Shaken and loses 2 Charisma.

Good guys again!)

 

[Bront]

Kirkesh pokes it again.

OOC: I won't worry till one of us falls under the "Stirred" condition. Shaken is ok

 

[unleashed]

OOC: Perhaps Kirkesh should poke it? Just a thought.

 

[Festy_Dog]

Diedrik maneuvers himself into a flanking position and takes another swing at the Voidwight.

 

[Rystil Arden]

*Talia shoots it with another gout of flame as Kirkesh and Diedrik strike at the creature with their blades, but it isn't enough to finish it off without Yuriko's blade.*

*The creature attempts to grab Diedrik like it did to Yuriko, but the careful Troubadour waves his fiery blade in a swathe as a distraction, ducking backwards and avoiding the blow.*

(OOC: VW takes 13 then 15 then 3, total 67 + ?

Diedrik loses 3 Charisma, Kirkesh loses 2

Good Guys Again)

 

[Festy_Dog]

"Talk about draining experiences," Diedrik quips lamely, the Voidwight clearly draining his sense of humour as well as his sense of self.

He swings again, not so lacking in personality as to be unable to fight.

 

[Bront]

Kirkesh Pokes again. (Sounds like a movie title)

OOC: Perhaps Kirkesh should poke it? Just a thought.

OOC: Apparently I was a bit stirred

 

[Rystil Arden]

*Talia, out of flame rays, fires three tiny globes of electricity at the creature, though it bats one of them away harmlessly and only takes a moderate shock. Still, as Kirkesh paces with his blade ready and swings, missing but distracting the creature, Diedrik runs it through the heart and it collapses, leaking darkened inky blackness that suffuses outwards as the darkness slowly fades from its body.*

*As it does, there is a stirring from amongst the fallen crew, as two of the corpses begin to rise.*

(OOC: VW takes 9 then 14, total 90 + ? and is defeated)

 

[Bront]

"Kill the corpses, quickly," Kirkesh says, decapitating any he can.

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: Two of them are already undead. Is he going to decapitate the four nonundead corpses or attack the ones that are? Rapiers probably aren't great for the decapitation thing, I'd imagine, but I guess he can manage.)
