Shards of Memory--Act I: The Boundless Void

[Rystil Arden]

"I don't know what one looks like--but it's big and nasty and full of darkness, draining away my personality...I think Alyria mentioned that in her stories about Voidwights, so...yes--it's right behind me! It's sucking away people's essences because it's badly hurt and it feeds to heal!"

 

[Bront]

"Alert everyone, especialy Yuriko, we need to kill it quickly." Kirkesh says as he dashes up to find and fight it.

OOC: anyone following me?

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: Yuriko does follow. I assume Diedrik probably will too, but actually can't be sure for Zaeryn, so we'll see)

 

[unleashed]

Zaeryn T'Erilan, Male Altanian Arcanist

Kirkesh looks at Vanessa, hoping she can do something for Valyssa, but he knows it is too late. He walks over to Zaeryn and puts his hand on his shoulder, "We'll get it for her. We won't let it take another."

*Zaeryn shows no reaction to the hand or words, as he continues to shuffle disconsolately towards the stairs leading down to his cabin.*

OOC: Unusrprisingly Zaeryn won't be taking part in the new struggle, with no magic, his love lost, and already being drained himself... there's not much he can do.

*Kirkesh, followed by his allies, turns the corner and heads to the barracks, where he sees the Voidwight holding one of the sailors in its arms with its mouth against the sailor's like a mock lover's kiss, as both bodies are surrounded by a dark void that desiccates and drains away the sailor's body and rapidly heals the Voidwight's own. Drained corpses of other sailors litter the floor as it turns towards them and drops the body.*

(OOC: Kirkesh et al can go first!)

 

[Bront]

Kirkesh dances forward, attacking the foul creature. (Hopefully Vanessa can cast like resistance on me or something)

 

[Rystil Arden]

*Before Kirkesh moves into melee, Talia fires off a ray of flame at the creature, and Yuriko moves to flank with him, blade striking as Kirkesh's does, with Vanessa moving in to heal it again and helping too.*

(OOC: VW takes 17 Damage, 10 Damage, 4 Damage, 5 Damage--total 36 + ?

Kirkesh, Yuriko, Vanessa Shaken and lose some Charisma (Kirkesh loses 1)

Diedrik's turn--song is off, but sonic blade is up still)

 

[Bront]

Kirkesh will poke regularly and dodge it (he is dodging it btw, didn't mention, but it's fairly obvious)

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: Yep--I autododge the person you attack unless stated otherwise and also always assume you keep it the same when you state a target until the target dies unless you state that you switch. I try to help out since Dodge is so difficult to remember )

 

[Festy_Dog]

Diedrik draws his weapon as he moves to engage.

OOC: If he cannot get into combat after a move action he'll use another Inspire Courage (although without Inspirational Boost).
