The Four Lands - The Great North

[J. Alexander]

Sailing North

The party assembles at the forward stairwell and descends to the deck below...reaching the deck proper the party finds themself in the hallaway that leads to their statesrooms as well as the staterooms of other passagners. Forward of the stairwll are 4 doors , 2 to each side as well as a doorway leading to the forecastle area.

"Does anyone recall which stateroom our young arcane practitioner occupies?"

Jaroth

"I don't believe it's the boy. That's not to say he isn't responsible for this. But let's withhold judgment until we have more evidence. Let me concentrate once more. If it is a man we are dealing with--a fact of which I am uncertain--his thoughts are mind-numbingly ferocious." Jaroth shudders as he braces himself for his spell. [ooc: I suppose Vadric would see that]

[OOC: Jaroth focuses his will and again reaches out with his mind to locate thoughts and pinpoint the location of the creature. If another concentration check is required, here it is: Concentration Check = 18]

 

[Dracomeander]

"Both the young man and the merchant he was having discussions with in the early part of the voyage were up on deck keeping to the back of the crowd.
"Are you saying we're looking for something rather feral? I wonder how it managed to get aboard?"

 

[Rath Lorien]

Anniston

"If it is some sort of Lycanthrope then perhaps he can be saved. Though I am not conviced that we have the resources to deal with such a problem here. Our best option may be to put him out of his misery. I'm just saying that we may have options other than execution."

Bertrand

Prefering hard evidence to speculation, Bertrand keeps his own council and continues to search for blood or tracks.

[Rhun]

Vadric's eyes sweep over the doors before them, looking for some clue as to the location of their quarry.


OOC: With True Seeing, what does Vadric see now? It should have a duration of 10 minutes.

From it's interaction with the young man, the pary knows that his cabin lies just underneath the quarterdeck proper thus at the opposite end of the hallway.

As Vadric continues to engage his sight he finds two figures behind the first door to his left, and one figure behind the 2nd door on his right. The figure behind the 2nd door on the right appears to be huddled on the floor wheras the two behind the first door on the left appear to be sitting at a tabel.

Focusing his thoughts Jaroth receives the impression of hunger, of rage, of mindless violence coming from the right of the hallway, wherea from the left of the hallway is the impression of danger, of fear, of deception.

A glimpse of the flooring reveals to Bertrand smuged footprints leading in a loop from right to left ending in the 2nd door on the left.

 

[Canaan]

Jaroth

"There." Jaroth points to the second door on the right.

As an afterthought, he adds for those who cannot see him "the second door on the right."

"Though there are two people behind the first door to the left, and I suggest they be questioned. In any event, I recommend they not be allowed to leave." Jaroth adds.

"I cannot detect any other presences in these rooms." He finishes.

Jaroth speaks an arcane word, "scutum" and he is covered in a field of force, a shield against attacks.

[ooc: Jaroth's AC is now 21 with greater mage armor and shield up and opponents suffer a 50% miss chance unless they can compensate for the greater invisibility.]

Bertrand

"Did you say right? To me the tracks seem to go to the 2nd door on the left?"
