Yttermayn's "Saga of the Dragon Cult" (IC)

[Helfdan]

Roderic looks around, gratified to see no one is hurt. He then calls upon the powers of Heironeous to seek the presence of evil within the cavern.

 

[Amaury]

"Impressive Tuk, impressive.. But a pity we had to kill him. He could have taught us more on this black goo.. Let's check the cavern first.."

She goes and picks the coin and uses it as a torch to explore the area.

John walks ove rto the shield and picks it up, "anyone use a shield? this is magical."

 

[Yttermayn]

Roderic's detect evil power reveals the presence of evil all around him, though dim at this point. It is as if evil has permeated the very stone. A few moments more of concentration and he is able to sense some dim evil auras further inside the caves.
As John walks past the body of the ogre, he notices that parts of the ogre seem to be collapsing in on themselves.
Rosalia finds lots of garbage littering the floor, and two sacks tossed haphazardly in a rough corner of the cave.

"look,"whispers John,"the ogre is disintigrating too."

 

[Voda Vosa]

"Oh yeah, that's interesting...." says Tuk to the wizard, as he carefully steps around the collapsing corpse to see what's in the sacks. He will quickly take any valuables and say nothing unless directly asked.

Grok couldn't help but feel some remorse for the ogre. He had seemed like a worthy oponent and an honorable one at that. The beast hadn't wanted to fight, that was clear. It appeared though that the evil corrupting this place though had finally taken its toll on him and he had no choice.

Grok moves to the body and kneels down. To others, it might appear that he's inspecting the remains of the ogre, but in reality he says a short and silent prayer for the lost soul of Logbrag. The others probably wouldn't understand, but he felt it necessary for such an oddly honorable opponent.

When the half-orc is done with his prayer, he does in fact look at the body and tries to learn anything he might regarding what had somewhat possessed Logbrag.

OOC:
Specifically, Grok is curious to know whether the body is decomposing like the cat, or if there is something different about it. The way I'm reading, it seems like Logbrags refusal to fully give into the "goo" might have spared his entire body from becoming a black puddle.

Jakobee's fist flares into hellfire light again as the badger growls at him. "Celestials. Every stinking time." is all he mutters though as the heavenly creature shows its inherent distrust of the man with diabolic blood running through his ancestry. He walks over to Tuk his fist still flaming and says "Hold still." He then incinerates the cloth covering the black goo on Tuk's chain, a steady stream of brimstone tinged arcane fire that burns away the gorey remnants. "There you go."

 

[Amaury]

Seeing Jakobee's move, Rosalia frowns unhappily. Is he gonna set the whole place ablaze?? she thinks.

She continues her exploration and carefully checks the two bags. She also checks passageways, hidden or not.

 

[Voadam]

Jakobee moves over to join Grok in observing the dissolution of the ogre body.
