The Four Lands - The Great North

[J. Alexander]

The Cove

As Jaroth begins to engage the boy in an arcane duel only to have his spell disappear as it reaches the boy. Sensing and opportuintiy, Bertrand rushes forward and delivers a stout attack upon the boy leaving him visiably wounded. Finally swinging into action, Anniston closes upon the boy and delivers a devasiting attack. As his cudgel strikes the boy, wisps of black flame can be seen coming from the impact area as if from a shield of some sort. Seeing his chance, Finnian slips in and delivers his attack causing and explosion of black flame and a cry from the boy as he crumples to the floor a charred corpse. (Bertrand, Finnian and Anniston need to make a ref save dc 22 for 1/2 damage of 22 points)

Vadric then closes upon the other foe and is an encourgaing display of martial ability drops the creature in one series of attacks.


OCC: Welcome back Anniston

Jaroth

Stunned at the efficacy of his friends' attacks and angry with his inability to perceive the boy's allegience eariler, Jaroth snarls: "Grab anything useful quickly, we must fly."

Jaroth grabs a blanket from the room and carefully wraps the book in it, placing it in his satchel.

Then, still using his innate sense of magic, he examines the boy or his belongings for magical auras and takes what he can easily. He won't bother with armor.

Anniston AC: 29 (+11 armor, +4 shield, +1 dex, +1 dodge, +2 ProtFromEvil) Hitpoints: 93/104 most recent dice rolls

Perhaps sensing the impending retribution, Anniston ducks behind his shield just in time and deflects much of the arcane blast. (ref save for half of 22 from boy retribution (1d20+7=26))

Anniston then looks around the inside of the tent cautiously, looking for more enemies. When all looks secure, he will begin to help the others to identify items of evil nature and/or things of value.

"Jaroth, do you think this boy was part of the evil cult you pursue?"

 

[Scotley]

Bertrand

Bertrand deftly evades the attack. He joins the Search (1d20+11=26) of the space for anything useful.

OOC: Reflex Save (1d20+13=30)

Jaroth

[ooc: Oops. I thought all the enemy were dead. :/]

"Yes, Anniston. Only the Order Drakar wield the Dark Fire. They are beings that have been twisted by magic. My Order suspects that the Order Drakar are no longer human. This boy was clearly one of them, if not possessed by one."

[Jaroth will use his knowledge arcana to determine whether the boy was possessed or was indeed one of the Order Drakar. Knowledge Arcana Check Result = 27 ]

 

[Rhun]

"Forgive me for not giving warning earlier, my friends" says Vadric, "But once I saw what we were facing I needed time to prepare, and you drew attention away from my actions. I could not let such darkness escape us. As for the boy, he was certainly not human."

The knight moves to clean Warsong on his opponent's cloak before sheathing the blade, and then follows Jaroth's instructions to help recover what they may.

Jaroth

Jaroth will point out to the others what items he finds that are magical in nature.
