|

Ganaroth:
Sorry,
forgot I made the joke.
|

|
Ganaroth:
A
little embarassing. My attention went to something else, and I
immediately lost track of the fact that I said that, lol.
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
Hokay.
I'm just about ready to go. Sorry for the sudden psych issue that
killed last session. I wish I wasn't vulnerable to things like
that. But regardless, here I am now.

Riot:
We
are missing a fox person it seems
|

Ganaroth:
You're
right. I was talking to him on discord, so I guess I assumed.

I
forgot that he's off at 3:30.

Ra'ven:
i
still resent me loosing my most common pair of shoes

Ganaroth:
Oh,
last time Akaiku mentioned that you folk should sort out the
potions.
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
yes
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
So
you might want to spend a couple of moments doing that.
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
heal+save
for minor action seems relelvent for the "can't attack also
bloodied" state of people
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
anyone
remember how many potions we had left? I'm pretty sure Lucky had
one at least
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
(If
you can't remember how many you have, I don't mind reseting this.
Let's give you 4 Vit potions, and 2 other potion-type consumable
of whatever type you want.)
|
Riot:
(( I do not for the life of me
remember ))
|

Ganaroth:
(Which
is valid, given that I don't either, and I forget shit constantly.)

ever so this is a new dimention in gameplay ))

trying to make consumable more of a thing. They're a long-standing
fantasy staple.)
|

Ganaroth:
(I
kinda miss the existence of potions and scrolls as a real gameplay
feature. Scrolls are way harder to re-implement, though.)

Ganaroth:
(I'm
satisfied with wands/staffs/rods/etc as they are, though.)
|
=^v^=:
(( so 4 vit potions, going to say
luck has one and kay has one, since kay is tank and low minor use and
luck is melee with low minor use. unsure where other 2 should go. Maybe
io or ra, cause mobility but idk ))

(( what does a vitality potion do
again ))

yeah, we're allowing potion throws, because that worked well in

for the "can't attack" people vs just second wind and then saving at the
end of the turn? ))
Riot:
(( just so I'm tracking ))
=^v^=:
(( I mean if they are bloodied, they
could use the potion, which might break out the can't attack ))
|

Ganaroth:
(I'm
not suggesting any course of action for any player. I'm just
saying that you have potions.)
|
=^v^=:

we have 1 non-second-wind healing power between the party right now ))

else wants a potion? ))

Ganaroth:
(Ok,
since nobody has an opinion, just give those to whomever you want,
Akaiku.)

|
|
Ganaroth:
(Same
with whichever non-vit potions you want.)
|
=^v^=:
(( what level non-vit potions and not
healing right? ))
|
|
Ganaroth:
(Up
to level 15, and they could be more healing if you want, but not
Vit, so they'll be less powerful. Other options might be more
efficient, if you can think of them.)

"I
have no idea. It's not as if I can sense them; I only know they
must exist because the Soma does. I have a certain sense for
dragons, as they fall under my "portfolio," if you wish to call it
that. I am the god of dragons. I am not, however, the god of GODS,
and have no special awareness of their presence, or whom they
might be."
|
Riot:
(( lol portfolio ))
|
|
Io:
(I
think. It's also possible I said otherwise. In which case, that
seems about standard for me.)
|
|
|
Itzen:
"Perhaps
we go (whatever direction is upward on the map)? The one
reinforcement came from the other direction..."
|
|
|
Io:
(Yeah,
portfolio is what a god's sphere of responsibility has
traditionally been called in DnD. There was a period in 2nd
edition where they divided things up into specific spheres
instead, which were sorta a parallel version of schools of magic,
but that didn't last.)
|
Riot:
(( huh I did not know that ))
|
|
Lucky:
"Sounds
good to me. Let's beat feet before more of these fuckers give us
problems."
|
|
|
Eileen nods
|
|
|
Io:
(Yeah.
Back during that period, it was actually optional whether the
"cleric" class existed at all. Instead you had specific priest
classes, which had their own custom spell lists and some attendant
abilities, so some priests couldn't actually heal at all, since
"healing" was a specific sphere. It's a decent concept, but it
wasn't implemented satisfactorily, because 2e was nightmarishly
NOT modular.)
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"Sounds
good to me. If nothing else, we can just keep causing a ruckus."
|
Riot:
(( did 2e use THAC0 ))
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:

|
Riot:
(( I am glad I did not play back then,

Riot:
(( I am but a simple story driven

(No,
that's a totally valid opinion. I'm glad I did, because it led to
other things, but I definitely wouldn't go back.)
|

Kaylen Fisher:
(I
still haven't head a satisfactory explanation for why thaco.)
|
You move towards the north. A couple of times, as you pass the oddly
regular freestanding chambers, you see another angel exit. They look
about for a few moments before locking on to you, but by that point
you're already past, leaving them to try to catch up. At the northenmost
extreme, you find a sturdy metal grating blocking the way to an open
chamber with a visible sarcophagus. A faint blue light shines from
within, and a thin mist seems to collect around the floor.
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Omnous!"
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher moves over quickly to
examine the opening. "Uh... ok. A magic lock, yeah. Looks like
there's a barrier across the door. Look." She points toward the
ground. The thin mist appears to be pressing up against something
at the threshold, unable to cross the grating. "Ugh. And the grate
has a physical lock." She points to the heavy lock visible on the
entryway. "If anyone can do that while I work on the barrier, I'd
be much obliged. Gonna take a sec."

Ra'ven is all about unloocking things

and use thieves' tools with her tail.
|
|
|
|
Ra'ven waits to see if pell succeeds
tho
|
Pell is surprised to discover that the lock foils his efforts! Every
time you try to turn a tumbler, it seems as though two others click to a
different position!
Riot:
(( WELL DAMN ))
|
|
Ra'ven:
|
|
|
Ra'ven tries as well
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
(I
hope you're not annoyed that Ra'ven hit the required number, Pell.)
|
|
|
Pell grumbles his annoyance at the
lock.
|
Riot:
(( no lol ))
Riot:
(( it was funny ))
|
|
Ganaroth:
(Ok.
I know it can get annoying, though.
)
|
Ra'ven manages to get it to work. Being able to hold a third pick with
your tail is a huge advantage in this case.
The barrier falls, and the grating opens before any of the
reinforcements can descend on you.
|
|
Ra'ven waves people inside
|
|
|
Lilium slips in
|
The room on the other side is older than the rest of this basement
level... significantly so. Enough, in fact, that the stone shows clear
signs not only of use, but of weathering. Sharp corners have been
smoothed away by generations of wind and water, before whatever happened
to enclose it. The sarcophagus shows the unclear lines of a woman in
plate armor that somehow gives the impression of being no more
encumbring on her than cotton or silk. To the side, you can see a slowly
rotating cube of bright blue energy. The light is cold... but somehow it
is a soothing ice, rather than a killing kind.
|
|
Lilium:
"Let's
hope they don't bother to look in here." She says as she goes to
look at the sarcophagus a bit more closely.
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher closes the grating
firmly. "Oh, they'll find us. But we might have a moment. 'Sides,
we want them to keep chasing us, not lose track!"
|
Anyone who is hear may feel free to make a religion or history check.

Eileen notes a number of features that suggest that the woman depicted
might have been either an elf or an eladrin. The style of the carving
seems reminiscent of similar burial sites in Evenbough, including the
one you yourself were found in. Itzen, on the other hand, is able to
note a number of sigils that have occasionally been used in conjuction
with faiths and philosophies that emphasize dreams, illusions, and
sleep. There are also a series of crescents and circles, both regular
and not, that form a procession around the rim of the sarcophagus, but
you're not sure what they are supposed to mean.
|
|
Itzen explains
|
|
|
Eileen relates.
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Oooh,
think it's someone sleeping?"
|
|
|
Lucky:
"I
wonder if we can wake her?"
|
|
|
Eileen:
"Waking
the dead... you two..."
|
|
|
Lucky shrugs. "Wouldn't be the first
time. Well, sorta."
|
"I think I know her... but it's not right. This is the burial place of
an aspect, not the whole of her." They seem demoralized. "I'd hoped that
something could be done, but not as she is now..." They look up with a
tired expression. "It is appropriate that she is caught in slumber,
after a fashion, as that is her domain. I... don't know if she could be
awoken. We are beings that can survive being separated, so this would
not by itself be fatal to her. But what affects it might have, I could
not guess."
|
|
Io:
(Dammit,
that's Io.)
|
|
|
Io:
(Again,
never going to not make a mistake.)
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"So
not dead then?"
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Perhaps
we can just kidnap her then? I mean, it's someone you know so
probably predates everything by unreasonable amounts."
|
|
|
Io:
"Here
lies Sehanine Moonbow, goddess of the Moon, of Dreams, of slumber
and transcendence. Dreaming, not dead."
|
|
|
Eileen turns to look at the light
sorce and walks towards it.
|
|
|
Lilium:
"I...
I guess we found there... Ummm sorce?"
|
|
|
Lucky:
"Do
you think the other... aspect of her might be here, too?"
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"What
sorta bow is a moon anyways?"
|
|
|
Io:
"Well,
the Sehanine Moonbow PART of her, at least. It's difficult to
explain, though I suppose it might be easier for you. We contain
multitudes, by many names, and the names mortals know us by may
only represent a small part of ourselves." They chuckle a little
under their breath. "Er... yes, I suppose it wouldn't translate.
Before the wolf, a sphere of light hung in the sky during the dark
times, like a candle to break the threat of darkness. This was the
silver light of the moon... which I suppose has been replaced by
your silver and argent cycles."
|
|
|
Io:
"Interestingly,
she would have quite possibly have been your patron, in the world
as it was, Itzen. Roughly half of lycanthropes were."
|
|
|
Io:
(were
hers. bad grammar.)
|
|
|
Itzen:
"She
was not patron of wolves then?"
|
|
|
Io:
"Not
specifically. She held dominion over the protective aspects of
many beasts, though I believe that wolves and bears were always
her particular favorites." They sigh. "They got on well enough
with Bahamut, but despised Tiamat. I'm not certain what she would
think of me. Sehanine Moonbow, Alessuraleen, Selune, Artemion...
She was so much, and now she is... this."
|
|
|
Itzen frowns slightly "Would she
disapprove of her power being used for the sort of enslavement it
currenty is to forgive a bit of disturbance?"
|
The cube of light is somehow cold, but inviting in that paradoxical way
you first felt on entering. It seems to sing gently to you. You're not
sure why it sounds like something familiar that shouldn't be.
|
|
Ra'ven:
"I
mean the you you are right now hasn't done anything sinister or
mean or bad at all, Io..."
|
|
|
Io:
(that,
of course, was toward Eileen, since she's looking.)
|
|
|
Io:
"The
me that I am is the sum of all things that were Bahamut and
Tiamat. I am every bit as responsible for her actions. All of that
which was capable of montrousness still lives in me. And she would
know that."
|
It sounds as though a number of enemies are gathering just out of sight.
At the very least, you can hear them moving around, though you don't
immediately have an idea about the numbers or types.
|
|
Eileen:
"....any
one... any one else feel like everything in here is weirdly
familiar?"
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Most
normal people are capable of both virute and monsterousness
though..... was that not true of you before?" (does anyone?)
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"Uh...
not really?" She looks around. "I'm pretty sure anywhere like THIS
in Si En Kelar was looted at least two centuries ago. It's kinda
peaceful, though. Even with the baddies right outside."
|
Some of you absolutely feel this. Itzen, Lucky, Ra and Lilium can feel
it. The only ones who don't seem to be Pell and Kay.
|
|
Ra'ven hmms, "I do sorta, but that
happens to a lot of strange places..."
|
|
|
Io:
"Of
course I was. But that doesn't change that Tiamat left a legacy of
pain and destruction behind her, and I am every bit as guilty as
she was."
|
|
|
Lilium nods, "Yeah... but I've never
been in a place like this before, so that's a biut odd."
|
|
|
Lucky:
"I
feel
something
, that's for sure. This place is fuckin'
weird."
|
|
|
Itzen:
"Perhaps
it is that patronage thing, beings that are attuned to her...
portfolio?"
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"I
mean that was long ago and basically everything is different from
now, plus you seem to regret it right? Probably should be
forgiven."
|
|
|
Lucky:
"Wouldn't
make much sense, as I've never heard of her. Not really religious,
anyway, myself."
|
|
|
Io:
"Hmm.
That''s interesting. I wouldn't have thought you'd feel anything
at all." They frown. "It makes sense, in a way, but that kind of
connection was always by our own choice. We could MAKE a
connection to those that resonated with us. But with her in this
state, I can't imagine she's making any choices at all. So why...?"
|
|
|
Io hops over to Eileen. "What do you
have here?"
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Perhaps
she's reaching out to whoever she can instinctivly?"
|
|
|
Lucky inspects the sarcophagus
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Lots
of people do that when sleeping."
|
|
|
Eileen glances at her weapon for just
a moment before looking to Io, "Some kind of light sorce, it's
cold but not in a "going to kill you way." Like it's strangly
inviting and soothing."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher nods at Ra's statement.
"That sounds like it could be. I mean, you spent like a million
years dead without dying, Io. Wouldn't surprise me if she could do
bullshit like that."
|
|
|
Io:
"Yes,
it is." Io stands on their hind legs, and reaches up toward it
with one claw. "It feels nostalgic..."
|
|
|
Ra'ven pulls up a seat on the
sarcophagus and pulls her bow at the door just in case someone
decides to enter
|
The deity supposedly within the sarcophagus doesn't do anything to smack
Ra'ven.
Io's claw touches the cube of light. Almost immediately, additional
dimensions make themselves known to them and Eileen. Shapes within
shapes, with lines stretching out in directions that you're certain
never existed before now. Io starts backwards, eyes wide, before
flicking Eileen a guilty expression. "Um... I think I may have just..."
With each word, the light grows brighter and brighter, and a soft melody
begins to play, deep in the quiet corners of your minds.
=^v^=:
(( is it brighter to others or just
them? ))
|
|
Io:
(Sorry.
Occasionally even the npcs get to do non-optimal things, if nobody
stops them.
It's brighter to everyone.)
|
|
|
Eileen:
"Well
that's something..."
|
|
|
Lucky looks up from where she'd been
focused on the sarcophagus, turning toward the light source.
"Uhhhh..."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"That's
pretty bright..." Ra sheields her eyes but keeps one towards the
door, incuring some rather annoying for her head turning back and
forth, "Um... what is it?"
|
A whisper in the mind. Like a thousand separate syllables that only
coincidentally come together to form words, dripping with malice and
scorn. "Oh.... there you are."
|
|
Itzen:
"Ah
perhaps this is that shared dream..." Itzen says, not hiding the
bit of annoyance in her voice particularly well
|
|
The Gray Angel:
"It
looks like I don't have to show up there myself to get rid of you
after all." A sharp snicker of venomous laughter. "Sweet dreams,
intruders."
|
|
|
Io:
"Um...
probably. I'm very sorry."
|
|
|
Lucky:
"Mother
fucker
."
|
|
|
Ra'ven springs up to see if she can
quickly bar/jam/etc the door in case this means they are about to
be knocked out
|
Make an acrobotics check to react in time!
|
|
Ra'ven:
|
|
|
Ra'ven rolls a 20
|
|
|
Lucky:
|
Riot:
(( Oh wait ))
Riot:
(( Just Ra ))
Before the light grows to blinding radiance, Ra'ven is able to spring
back towards the gate, slamming it back into place. You hear a
satisfying *click* from the lock, and you register a tiny popping in
your ears as the air pressure stabilizes, the barrier raised again as
well. Moments later, the cube flashes, the light obliterating your view
of the chamber... but the radiance, beyond all understanding, is soft
and welcoming even as it encompasses your entire vision.
...AND THEN...
Riot:
(( Dude Where's My Car And Then No And
Then.gif ))
vonel:
(( 'Cause I got high, because I got
high, because I got high ))
You awaken. The air is cold and sharp, and above you where you lie
staring up at the sky is a tremendous field of stars, covering the
entire canvas of the sky, rather than as walls the sides of the world. A
silver light shines down, like the silver orb of Garmera, but the source
is too round, and covered with grey speckles. All around you is the dark
violet of unnatural stone, and the luminescence of flora and fauna
unfamiliar to you, like the images of half-remembered hallucinations.
|
|
Io:
(one
moment!)
|
=^v^=:
(( DA DA DA, DA, DA, DA ))
You're lying on the ground, not that it appears to matter, since the
world around you seems silent, save for the trilling of oddly musical
insects. Io rights themselves, looking around with a distinctly guilty
expression.
|
|
Io:
"...So,
that might have been my fault."
|
|
|
Eileen:
"Yes...
yes it was... not that I blame you. I was probably going to try
that myself, you just beat me to it."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"You
poked a glowing singing rock... someone was going to."
|
|
|
Pell:
"I
am beginning to regret ever leaving the bar."
|
|
|
Io:
"Sigh...
Well, I thank you for treating my error with good humor, at
least." They look around. "Oh. Well, now you know what a moon
looks like. I suppose I was right in finding this nostalgic." They
look over a Ra, and jump, clearly startled. "Well. Are you well,
Ra'ven? You have a little something on your... everywhere."
|
|
|
Io:
(I
will leave it to Akaiku to elaborate.)
|
|
|
Eileen looks over at Ra
|
|
|
Lilium is a bit to focused on the
unfamiliar flora and fauna to be paying attation to much else.
|
|
|
Io:
(Also,
just for the record, because it doesn't necessarily look like it,
going to dreamland wasn't actually a given. There are 3 corpse
areas on the basement map, and each of them had a different
outcome! You just, uh, happened to pick the one I forecasted to
the greatest degree, lol.)
|
|
|
Ra'ven seems to be a vaguly shaowy
flicker of herself making it hard to stare, glowing red eyes and
dark wolfen features, her face tattoo a harsh buring fire that
strangly does not light up things, her fingers and toes appear
like jagged claws.
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"Wow."
She gets up, moving slightly backwards with no apparent conscious
thought. "That looks really cool, and also horrifying. Do you
normally look like this when you're dreaming? Uh, assuming this is
a dream, by the way."
|
|
|
Ra'ven raises a hand and looks down at
it with a sigh that comes out with a hiss, then says a bit
dejectedly but with a much heaver infernal accent then normal,
"Well, this could be worse...."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"Not
that it's a problem!" She quickly puts up her hands. "I already
knew that there was some hellfire going on, after all. It's just
different to see it visualized."
|
|
|
Lucky:
"Well,
that's new."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"No,
no it's a problem... this is somewhat what I saw when I saw
something tearing up my frends and family..." she sighs, "... so
that I'm not doing that is good at least..."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"...Yeah,
that is good." She hesitates, then moves forward, putting her hand
on your shoulder (if that's ok. She'll stop short if not.). "I
don't think you will, though."
|
|
|
Eileen eventually sits up, "All right
then, and if you try we'll slap you around until you stop."
|
|
|
Ra'ven is fine with it, though ra is a
bit more fuzzy and prickly then one would expect
|
=^v^=:
(( a rather sharp fur, as opposed to
soft ))
|
|
Eileen:
"Regardless...
Io is this that shared dream thing you were talking about that the
soma induces?"
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
(Gonna
move you over, k? Not sure how much longer you want to go, though
I think we've done a decent amount for this week, so we're not
behind.)
|
=^v^=:
(( I saved the gaem either way ))
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
(Thanks.
I appreciate it.)
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
(Thoughts?)
|
vonel:
(( can stop here, need to get food ))
|
|
Io:
"Titania,
Somnin, Morphea, Njorun, Mamu, Caer Ibormeith..."
|
Riot:
(( Oh wow that's cool looking ))
|
|
Io:
(Pell
actually recognizes the last one, incidentally, though not as the
name of a deity. It was the name of a fortress of learning in the
Reach, dedicated to preserving the learning of your nation against
the terrible calamities that occasionally wrack a land adjacent to
the Iron Empire.)
|
Riot:
(( Was gonna say, looks like Reach
speak ))
|

Io:
(yar!)

Io:
(Anyway,
I guess it's good to end for the day. I genuinely hope to continue
on sunday!)

I

Spitballing
ideas for my "AU Vi gets brought back to life" fic, and had the
idea that Vander and a retired Grayson are gonna be a thing and
Powder is gonna
hate
it
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
evil
lord of an intergalactic empire is probably a really terribe show
but it's doing that thing that I'm a sucker for; having an almost
novel take on generic slop anime
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
That's
hilarious.
|
|
|
Riot:
Like
Powder finds them having drinks at the bar and smiling and she
just squints at them, pointing an accusatory finger between them,
saying "I don't like... Whatever this is." before stomping off
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
Later:
Powder invents soundproofing, for "reasons."
|
|
|
Riot:
lmao
not gonna go into that level of detail into Vander's private life
but yeah just adding it in as a fun way to make the kids groan
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
No
worries, it were just a joke.
|
|
|
Riot:
15
year old Vi finding out: "Really? A
cop
Vander?"
|
|
|
Riot:
Vander:
"Need I remind you that your girlfriend has repeatedly mentioned
how she wanted to be an enforcer one day, back when they still
existed?" Vi: "She's not my-" she sputters, before giving up and
crossing her arms, glaring at him
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
I'm
glad the slop anime is doing something good? I'm probably not
going to watch it. I often try to watch those shows just for
kicks, and then run out of steam by like episode 5 or 6. By that
point, I've usually gotten the single joke that the series is
based around.
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
Hmm.
So, what DID happen after they defunded the police?
|
|
|
Riot:
Eh,
I hadn't thought that far ahead but I figure community support
officers or something similar
|
|
|
Riot:
And
Zaun, being independent, probably has its own organization
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
this
anime's single joke is that the guy who was isekai's is a horrible
monster god who feed on suffering and said god did it to make this
guy get everything he asked for in an ironic monkey paw fashion
but I assume everything goes right for the guy etc w/e
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
That
actually reminds me, what is the political status of Zaun in this
timeline? I don't believe anything firm was mentioned in the show
itself.
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
remove
cops embrace batman
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
but
the cool telltale one or lego one
|
|
|
Riot:
In
my take on it, it's independent and they work with Piltover via
trade deals etc
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
Telltale
Batman supremacy.
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
out
of curiousity, is Io currently non-natural origin?
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
Makes
sense. I totally imagine that Zaun would have a community-elected
militia, or something of that nature.
|
|
|
Riot:
lmao
I'm reading a silly fic where Vi goes back in time to her bridge
massacre era self and makes sure Powder has a good life, and she
has become a sort of superhero of Zaun
|
|
|
Riot:
I
refer to it as the Time Traveling Zaunite Superhero Vi fic
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
Honestly,
I could get behind that. Does she still have the gauntlets?
Because that would go a ways toward selling the vigilante aura.
|
|
|
Riot:
I
think she's currently 15 and wears a mask that Powder and Ekko
invented so no one recognizes her (she kept them away from Vander
until the most recent chapter, because she didn't want anything
bad to happen to him), but I don't remember if she has any
gauntlets
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
just
have the communist revolutionary vanguard help police
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
If
she's still 15, she probably doesn't have the gauntlets, since
they weren't invented 'til later. I mean, it's not like they
couldn't be written in, of course.
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
They
helped them by defunding them, so they could do something
productive with their lives.
|
|
|
Riot:
Yeah
I was thinking the old mining gauntlets, she deffo doesn't have
the hextech ones
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
Oh,
I don't think he said anything, but Von is getting some food, and
will be back soon.
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
I
like this mod that gives extra functionality to summon spells, for
people that don't like crowding the battlefield, or who are
playing with full party mods or whatever, so that you're not
leading an actual army around. Basically it lets you sacrifice the
summoned creature for a unique buff based on whatever critter it
was. It's cool. It's not all that balanced, though. Most of them
are just useful and cool, but the ability you get from the Earth
Myrmidon is so bonkers that you don't normally want other things,
lol. Still, if they could fix that auto-pick, it's a cool addition.

I
was wondering how the author was gonna reconcile Vi giving up her
life with Cait to go back in time and do all of this over

It's

|
|
|

Ekko, Jinx, Sevika

You find yourself amidst a dark landscape lit by the luminescence of the
alien flora around you, and the bright pinprick of shining insects as
they dart about in the warm breeze. Under the light of the unfamiliar
celestial objects, you can hear the steady crash of waves all around
you, calling attention to the edge of the precipice. It's a fairly small
platform, leading upwards what, in the distince, looks like a misty
portal, just bright enough to see in the dark. A faint whisper: "You
worry. You agonize. You poison the present with thoughts of your future.
Give them to me. I will share your burdens. We will share your burdens.
A brave soul supported by others gains strength far beyond their own.
Know peace. Know love. Know the end of fear."
|
|
Lucky:
"Well
that
feels ominous."
|
|
|
Lilium:
"Yeah."
|
|
|
Io looks about warily. "When someone
tells me to let go of my fear, it immediately warns me that
something frightening is about to happen. Damn this... Using her
essence as an insensate recreational haze. It's disgusting."
|
|
|
Itzen:
"This
is a strange cave..." she shakes her head and looks toward
Ra'ven's new look, "You, for your part, seemed to be a werewolf
before, but perhaps that isn't the case.." a pause, "I do know a
few litanies for keeping ones wits, but me speaking them is
perhaps a bit of an..
imposition
upon Those With Rules"
|
|
|
Itzen seems mostly saying that to Ra,
but she glances at Lil and Io
|
|
|
Itzen:
"Such
thing are, after all, a bit of my job..."
|
Shudders, as though they touched something foul, and for a moment you
see them separate: A dragon of shining metal, and the other
multicolored, with five heads. The metal one looks sad, while the
multiheaded one seems angered. "You have an interesting view of the
world, Itzen, if you believe yourself free from rules. All beings are
subject to them; the difference of gods is that we ARE them."
|
|
Io:
(sorry,
supposed to be /e of Io)
|
=^v^=:
(( I just made up a silly term for
the split between 'natural' and 'everything else' so ha ))
|
|
Itzen nods, "So you get the
difference!"
|
|
|
Itzen:
"The
beings with rules core to their existance, vs the ones that exist
around them."
|
|
|
Itzen:
"I
can speak with a sort of Authority that calls upon the Rules, in a
general sense."
|
|
|
Io looks at you, curious. "I thought
the difference was self-evident. We are composed of idea to a far
greater degree that matter, while our opposites... well, not hard
to figure out." They seem amused. "Authority, eh? Is that what you
call it..."
|
|
|
Itzen:
"I
am, however, working with you, so using such things on you without
asking seems slightly rude."
|
|
|
Itzen:
"It
shoudln't
be, as it's merely a metaphysically different eloquence, but I
have had those take offense."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"This
is a really cool primer to the terminology of the word, and all,
but we probably need to get out of here. Here's a thought: Are we
actually physically here, or are our bodies just laid out on the
floor? Because if it's the second one, we're on a serious time
limit before someone slits our throats."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"I
locked the door at least."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
(I
meant to say terminology of the world, but it almost looks like it
isn't a typo, lol)
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Plus,
dreamtimes are not the same as waking times, least for me..."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"Yeah,
that'll slow them down, but there isn't a door made that can't
eventually be breached." She purses her lips. "There could be some
perceptual dilation, sure. That does work in dreams. But we don't
have a way of knowing if, or how much."

"I'm
sure they have the keys."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"It's
a sealed room with 2 different sorts of locks and rather
untouched, so it's possible it's difficult to get them."
|
|
|
Lilium:
"Given
who was in the room, maybe only Grey has the keys?"
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Also
Up is all messed up, where is the cieling? Where is the Wolf if it
doesn't have it?", she says accidently omniously
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"If
I had a Hextant, I'd be able to measure the perturbation ratios,
and at least figure out what direction any dilation might be..."
She continues to absently mutter to herself.
|
|
|
Itzen:
"It
IS a dream, so such measurements from within would be suspect,
correct?"
|
|
|
Io:
"I
would expect the Gray to have the key to this room, if nobody
else."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"They
specifically said they don't need to come get us and we can just
die there before we went in, so maybe we have a bit..."
|
|
|
Lilium:
"We
just need to keep going right? There has to be someone else here,
even if it's just someone from our memories>'
|
|
|
Lilium looks around to see if there's
some kind of path.
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Hopefully
not mine unless it's Vul..."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"Actually,
that's the whole point of Hextants! You use it to measure ratios
of arcane propagation within a volume of space. That rate is a
constant in normal space, but the further removed, the greater the
errors that begin to occur, slowing it down or speeding it up,
accelerating, fragmenting... all sorts of things. That this is a
dream world COULD mess with it, but unless this vision
specifically thought to include those ratios, I would still see
divergence." She then deflates. "I mean, if I had one."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"Of
course, assholes who want to trap you in a dream without you
knowing would just make it somehow impossible to get your hands on
one. That's a lot easier than actually getting the ratios to show
up correctly would be..."
|
To the south, a narrow path winds along the rocks. The dropoff is a good
fourty or fifty feet on both sides, though one would drop you into the
water, and the other into a twisted and lambent jungle. The path is wet
and slick from the ocean spray, and where the rock seems level,
crumbling sheets of salt cruch unsteadily under your feet.
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Well,
if we are here, maybe we can wake up that entombed woman...."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Moonbow
was it? Since she was trapped asleep and this dream is powered by
her right?"
|
|
|
Lilium frowns, "That's a bit
dangerous..."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"I
mean our current situation is fatally trapped with no help coming,
though?"
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Plus
she's Io's friend, sort of..."
|
|
|
Lilium:
"i
meant the cliff down."
|
|
|
Io:
"Goddess
of Dreams, Goddess of the Moon, Goddess of Illusion and Mischief,
Sehanine Moonbow. Among other names. If we can wake her, I would.
But I don't know how, and we must attempt to save ourselves, or we
will never be able to help her. If we find something along the
way, perhaps. Or... I don't know. But I'm unwilling to risk the
Orb detonating simply because I wanted to search this dreamscape a
little longer." They shake themselves. "She has existed in this
form for some time now, it seems. Most likely she can wait a
little longer." They seem dejected, despite their words.
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Ya,
so she probably could get us out if we woke her."
|
|
|
Io:
"And
yes, it seems very dangerous. If one can't fly, at least."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
A
pause, "Does anyone know some OTHER way to wake up?"
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"Is
the Gray dude in here with us? They said he "conducts" this dream.
That implies active participation, right?"
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Suppose
it'd be a bit silly to ask Io for help if we were currently
swallowed by a dragon they created..."
|
|
|
Io:
"There
is no dragon here that... Oh, a metaphor."
|
|
|
Lilium:
"If
he is in here could we try and defeat him? Maybe that would wake
us up."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"Well,
I wasn't really implying that we should ask him nicely. If he's
controlling it actively, there's every chance that it falls apart
without him, isn't there?" She points at Lilium. "Yeah, that's
what I'm getting at."
|
|
|
Itzen:
"It's
a bit strange as this isn't exactly a plesent place."
|
|
|
Io:
"That,
I think depends on what you are used to, and probably what part of
the dream you're in. For me, this scenery is far more comforting
and familiar than anything I've seen in your world."
|
|
|
Lucky:
"Color's
hurtin' my eyes."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"I
mean it's dangerous, but I do like salt water... the lack of Wolf
is unnerving but you can just not look up..."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"it's
intresting at least, wouldn't say relaxing..."
|
|
|
Lilium:
"I...
I actually kind of like it."
|
|
|
Io:
"You
would, in fact, grow accustomed to it." They gesture with their
snout. "Sehanine is a fey goddess, one of the great rulers of the
Seldarine. This landscape recollects the feywild... the Land
Between the Winds, as I've heard Patience call it. It is a memory
of a natural world that no longer is, but was always meant to be."
The expression isn't human, but is also clearly a sad smile. "If
it seems beautiful to you, Lilium, it may be because you mourn the
death of the intended shape of things."
|
|
|
Itzen frowns slightly at that, then
goes to check the footing on the south path carefully...
|
|
|
Lilium nods
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Oh,
that place still exists in a few places..."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Unless
it's supposed to be Wolfless I guess..'
|
|
|
Io:
"In my
world, it did not simply exist in a few places. It existed in all
places, and none, like a bright reflection of all the world just
out of sight. The fabric of your world is too stable... though I
find that word altogether too postitive. Stagnant, perhaps, would
be better. It was wolfless, for the most part, then. I have no
idea what the little attenuated pockets of it are like now."
|
You're able to pick your way across the path with a little effort. It's
slow going, but not dangerous as long as you're paying attention. You
don't get more than twenty-five feet in before you hear the whispers
again.
|
Phobos 1:
"This
gate has been prepared for you."
|
|
|
Phobos 1:
"Approach
with intent, and the dream shall reflect your just reward."
|
|
|
Phobos 2:
"Or
stay. Absorb the stars, the silver of the past. Bask in
acceptance, and slowly sink into the depths."
|
|
|
Phobos 2:
"So
many others wait to welcome you. Acceptance everlasting."
|
|
|
Eileen:
"Stay
and live in false bliss, or try and leave and be judged... s'well."
|
|
|
Itzen humphs at that, "Garmera accepts
everything and everyone, this place without Her is no place to
stay.." and keeps walking forward, a bit of an edge in her steps,
"Come on."
|
|
|
Itzen:
"I
am not paying most of you to sink into the Storm."
|
|
|
Phobos 2:
"You
have faith in Garmera. But there is a sliver of uncertainty, is
there not? Garmera has never spoken to you. Never looked you in
the eye. Never reached down to move the pieces of your life. You
take power, but so do so many followers of shallow and venal
philosophies."
|
|
|
Phobos 1:
"There
are other things that are more real, even here. The fruit you eat
here will be sweet, the nights warm, and the companionship real.
Garmera will never sate your hunger, will never shelter you from
the cold, never hold your hand against the fear."
|
|
|
Pell:
"There's
such a thing as 'too good to be true', and that sounds like it
fits the bill."
|
|
|
Itzen frowns more, "And what need of I
for her to do those? Having companions to rely on to share hope
and fear is the Third Gift."
|
|
|
Itzen:
"What
uncertainy I have is my specific place in the world."
|
|
|
Phobos 2:
"A
collection of half-made dolls, none of whom know themselves, or
know their world. The meaning in your lives is frozen dust, ready
to scatter at a breath. You will never find the answers in the
waking world." The voice suddenly sounds close to your ear.
"You'll find more truth here than in that husk of cobbled-together
maxims, formed out of desperation in a world that no longer
listens to prayers."
|
|
|
Phobos 1:
"Think
not that this is too good to be true. Recognize, instead, that
your life is too terrible to believe."
|
|
|
Itzen:
"This
place is made from dreams and trickery; I doubt the truth is
obvious."
|
|
|
Lucky:
"My
life's pretty good, actually. But thanks!"
|
|
|
Eileen:
"That
might be true, but I'd rather confornt the problems and deal with
them."
|
|
|
Ra'ven giggles slightly, which sounds
extremely strange coming from her sinister form, "I mean, I
somewhat recently decided to try not running away from life, so
you just missed me strange voice..."
|
At this point, anyone who wishes to advance forward should make some
kind of check. It's hard to tell exactly how it works, but as you seek
to brush off the whispered voices you can see the path in front of you
waver. When you resist, it flashes into momentary clarity. When you
refute, it seems to straighten, as though the world itself is vulnerable
to your words and thoughts.
|
|
Lucky:
|
|
|
Pell:
|
|
|
Itzen humphs and recites the gifts,
her words, however, carrya bit of a profound weight to them to
certain party memebers
|
|
|
Itzen:
|
The weight of her words on those from Elsewhere is heavy
|
|
Trigger:
She makes an intimidate or diplomancy
check against a target that isn't natural origin
|
|
Effect:
She uses arcana instead with a +2 bonus to
the check
|
|
|
|
Eileen:
|
=^v^=:
(( in this case I think she's using
them diplomatically, as an argument for what 'is' ))
|
|
Itzen:
|
=^v^=:
(( as a fun example of the gap, that
check assuming the same dice roll, would be a 19 for diplomancy vs
natural creatures ))
|
|
Phobos 1:
(Both
Lucky and Pell are able to find the way forward. You can move your
speed, or take a different move action. Eileen anger fails to
quell the dream, however, and the pathway seems to dance out of
your way as it nervously avoids you. Itzen calls on her magics to
briefly stabilize it.)
|
|
|
Lilium:
|
|
|
Phobos 1:
(Sorry,
you can start that move action at the beginning of the path.)
|
=^v^=:
(( I suppose Kay would probably be
trying to study the dream via arcana since she absoutly said she was
before ))
=^v^=:
(( i do not know what actions Io
would take ))
The flora... even ethereal, unnatural flora, bends to your command
Lilium can either take that move action, or do something exotic with the
plants. Up to you.

Ra'ven shakes her head, "If it's a
pretty dream I'm far to scary to be here, after all.."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
|
|
|
Io:
(No
joke)
|
=^v^=:
(( question, free action move okay? ))
|
|
Io:
(What
does that mean?)

Ra'ven:

|
|

Io:
(Yeah,
you can use a free action power.)
|
=^v^=:
(( we can move action to move or move
action, can I move+that? ))
|
|
Io:
(You
can use a move action, and you can also use free actions as
normal.)
|
=^v^=:
(( also Ra is visually werewolfy and
probably using the power but should she still get the bonus speed from i
tt? ))
|
|
Ra'ven:
|
Okay the large spikey jackel is standing up now and my
what sharp claws it has...
|
|
Effect:
She has sharp teeth, horrific clawed
hands, also has +2 to speed. She can change back and shift 1
square as a minor action.

Apply
She
is a horned wolf/jackel/woman, has +2 to speed and can use
wolf powers.

|
|
|
Io:
(I'm
sorry, but you have to tell me you're in an encounter power form
that you can't keep on continuously.)
|
As you approach the dimly lit portal, a pair of figures shimmer into
being, like folds of night unveiling. The watch you, and one says. "They
seek escape, back to the nightmare, back to the danger, back to the
ruin."
The other speaks. "A great unkindness, to allow such a thing. It is
better here. It is complete in a way your world can never be. The dream
of perfection, against the reality of entropy. No. Too many depend on
this." It seems to raise a hand, though it mostly appears like curtain
of dark velvet against the night. "You will not condemn them."
At this point, is an init situation, unless you do something to pre-empt
it.
|
|
Itzen actually does have a thing to
shout at that
|
|
|
Itzen:
"This
building, this town and everything in it will be burned clean by
the Tear of Gamera if we do not stop it, then
nobody
will
be here to know this place!"
|
|
|
Pell:
"It's
impossible to fix the world if you hide away from it."
|
=^v^=:
(( what's the range on Elieen's
+init? ))
|
|
Eileen:
|
Effect:

can see and hear you gain a +2 power bonus to initiative.

Expert Combat Leader:
The bonus to initiative from
Combat Leader increases to +3.

(Itzen
and Pell can both make diplomacy checks immediately prior to init.)

Itzen:

Riot:
(( rip ))
The creatures seem unconvinced.
Itzen's supernatural speech appears to have some effect; one of the
creatures visibly hesitates even as the other moves to attack.
Ra'ven has received initiative.
Riot:
(( which one hesitated? ))
=^v^=:
(( still need to make checks to move
forwards? ))
|
|
Phobos 1:
(You
do need to make a check, yes. Phobos 1 hesitated.)

Phobos 1:
(Ok

|
|
Ra'ven then moves again to go to the
portal hopefully!
|
As soon as Ra'ven steps to that point, she feels the disorienting
instability of the place recede, giving her sure footing and allowing
her to act as normal. At the same time, you feel a tremendously
uncomfortable feeling as you get near the strange creatures, but you're
able to swiftly avoid them. In front of you, the portal stands like
dimly lit mist. It doesn't seem to be closed or locked.
|
|
Phobos 1:
(That
point is right there.)
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Should
I go ahead?"
|
You're essentially shouting the words from a distance at this point, and
nobody has a lot of time to answer. You can't see her expression, but
Kay's voice is testy. "Yeah, jump throught the strange portal by
yourself, great idea."
Lilium has received initiative.

Ra'ven:

(( I mean Ra would listen to Kay
about just leaving ))

any case, Kayle succeeds, of course. It's actually not an easy
check, but Kay has good arcana.)

supersedes a mark that was already in place. If the marked
target makes an attack that doesn't include you as a target,
it takes a –3 penalty to attack rolls. If that attack hits
and the marked target is within 10 squares of you, you can
use an immediate interrupt to reduce the damage dealt by

I'll have to detox from weed before visiting my sister sometime

detoxing is unpleasant for me, because cannibinoid hyperemesis.)

I hope it goes as well as can be

Ra'ven:
technically
alabama allows medical weed tinctures
|
Last time, you fought and defeated a pair of fear spirits who had
appeared to bar your path. As the second one falls, the mist shrouding
the gateway brightens, casting off the shadow that had shrouded it. The
light, however, brings little comfort. The ghostly blue luminescence is
more unsettling than anything else, and you can feel a something like a
chill in the air... but it's inside you, as though the cold touches
nothing but your own bodies and minds.
|
|
Ganaroth:
(Medical
tinctures aren't actually helpful, though. I've used them, and
haven't noticed anything.)
|
=^v^=:
(( also speciffically peach only
gummies ))
|
|
Riot:
That
was my understanding too
|
|
|
Ra'ven remains shaken, looking like
she wants to beat up the shades further, before grabbing Kaylen's
arm, "Sorry, it's just... that was pretty unplesent..."
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
(Wait,
alabama allow peach gummies? 0.o And... not other flavors? The
hell?)
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher looks at Ra'ven, but
doesn't push her away. "Yeah. It's like I could feel all the
things that have ever freaked me out. And they were here with me."
She shivers. "I wonder if those things actually exist, or if
they're just here?"
|
|
|
Io:
"I
don't remember them from my time, but your world has so many new
things that I sometimes despair of learning them."
|
|
|
Eileen:
"if
there naitive then they'll probably be back, hard to kill a dream."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"And
probably at the worst time too. Got it."
|
|
|
Itzen takes a deep breath to center
herself, despite it being a dream so breathing is silly, "That
thing you did, Elieen, where you focused the path..."
|
|
|
Eileen:
"Don't
ask... I'm not even sure how I did that."
|
|
|
Lucky:
"Either
way, I appreciate it. That whole 'not being able to tell if you're
about to walk off a cliff' thing kinda sucked."
|
|
|
Itzen turns her gaze to Io, "Do
you
know what that was, you seemed to also do it for a bit?"
|
|
|
Io:
"A
thing often done within the Astral Sea, though I assume it no
longer exists in this strangely unified cosmos. It was the realm
of concept, thought, and memory, and any physical traits were
themselves products of the mind. Manipulating your environment
through force of will is the primary way of getting from "place"
to "place" within that plane."
|
|
|
Io:
"I
Eileen do what she did, and tried to do what I rember doing. It
worked."
|
|
|
Io:
I saw*
|
|
|
Itzen:
"It
seemed like a rememberd moment to me is why." She shakes her head,
"That crystal that brought us here, I wonder if it keeps that
friend of yours here as well."
|
|
|
Eileen looks over at Io, "Maybe it
was..."
|
|
|
Io:
"...Well,
as I said, it's what I remember doing. There are traces of home
mixed in. My world. The Seven Mounting Heavens of Celestia, and
the Transcendent Wheel. And the ache for their loss."
|
|
|
Itzen:
"I
do not fancy fighting the Grey in a place where it's in control of
that realm's physicality. Do you think you could use your
friendship to, perhaps, try to make a way to commune with this
Moonbow person? If it's her power in the first place, perhaps we
can have her revoke some of it?"
|
|
|
Pell smiles sadly at Io, "Makes being
away from home for two and a half years seem like nothing."
|
|
|
Lilium points to the portal, "Won't we
just end up fighting him in the waking wolrd if we go though
there?"
|
|
|
Lucky:
"That's
what I'd assume."
|
|
|
Io:
"Time
is one thing, but the loss of a home never heals until a new one
is found. I respect your pain, and sympathize."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"That
portal wakes us up? Seems like it jost goes somewhere else
unplesent."
|
|
|
Lilium shrugs, "I just guessed, really
it could do any thing."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"No
way to know. You can't just figure out where a portal goes without
some fairly powerful shit, and if it's just a dream construct,
even that might now work."
|
|
|
Lucky:
"I
mean, not sure why those two dream ghosts or whatever would be
fighting to keep us from going through it, otherwise."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
*not
|
|
|
Io:
"Well,
who wants to be the canary in this mine?" They pause. "...I used
to have seven of them, so I would like to retract the metaphor.
It's disturbing."
|
|
|
Lilium:
"I
can go."
|
|
|
Itzen:
"That
last thing punished us when we were alone, I can go with her as
well."
|
|
|
Lilium:
"Though
I'm not to sure if we'll be able to comunate back once were
though."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"It's
a good idea anyway. Getting stuck alone would suck. If you can,
though, hop back over in precisely five seconds. Knowing if you
can come back is good, and I also want to check for temporal
offset."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"If
there's any discrepency, that would increase the chances that this
whole construct is running on altered time."
|
|
|
Lilium:
"Assuming
we can come back once were on the other side."
|
|
|
Itzen:
"It
will potentially show we can't if that's the case, unless the
difference is quite a bit."
|
|
|
Lilium:
"True."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"You
could poke it with a stick or the like, see if it pulls you
through or something sinister or just is a gate."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"Eh...wouldn't
work if it like a real one. Gates aren't particularly stable;
getting them to actually work at all over distance is tough going.
They don't work exactly like doors, and you can't put PART of an
object through. Until the whole thing is through, nothing pops out
the other side."
|
|
|
Io looks at her oddly. "Another
difference, then."
|
|
|
Lilium looks at Itzen, "Ready?"
|
|
|
Ra'ven frowns a bit, still having not
released the arm, "Perhaps someone who knows less about gates
should try it. Its a dream."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"...fuck.
I guess I screwed up *that* possibility."
|
|
|
Itzen nods, "Might as well, so 5
seconds and we hop back."
|
Itzen and Lilium step through, like walking through a fog bank. Moments
later, that fog partially clears. The area is still obscured by a
slightly glowing mist, which dimly illuminates the scene of a giant
graveyard. Willow trees bent under the weight of hanging spanish moss
dot the landscape, interpersed with headstones, markers, and mausoleums.
A beaten dirt path leads forward, and you can see some kind of orange
light glowing on the other side of the fog, not strong enough to full
cut though. Behind you, you can see a veil of dim purple mist.

"...14,
15... Oh, hey there you are! So, if you didn't delay for whatever
reason, there's definitely an offset. Could actually be good for
us."
|
|
|
Io:
"What
did you see?"
|
|
|
Lilium:
"Graveyard."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Oh,
that's good, perhaps there will be some crows."
|
|
|
Lilium:
"There
was a light, but couldn't see any thing else other then...
graveyard stuff?"
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"Yeah?
Ok, at least you weren't attacked immediately, or choked out on
poison gas."
|
|
|
Lilium:
"Shall
we then, no reason to keep standing around here."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"Those
are important things to know! Yeah, let's get out of here."
|
The party moves through the gate, finding themselves in the graveyard
that Lilium described.
|
|
Lucky:
"On
to the spooky graveyard we go!"
|
|
|
Eileen looks around once on the other
side, "At least this makes sense given where we were in the waking
world."
|
|
|
Io:
"Hmm.
You described it as a graveyard. Is there a particular reason you
used that word, rather than "cemetary?"
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher responds to Eileen. "All
the people this asshole killed with his poison, you mean?"
|
|
|
Lilium shrugs, "Not really, other then
it's creepy."
|
|
|
Eileen:
"I
meant in her tomb."
|
|
|
Ra'ven looks for black winged bird
friends, "I mean graveyards are outside in the grass and dirt,
cemetarys are fancier right?"
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"Ah.
Well, that makes more sense. I guess I was looking for a metaphor
where one wasn't needed."
|
There don't appear to be any crows here. If they follow the same logic
as real crows, they'd be hibernating, waiting for another Gold cycle.
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
(Crows
are pretty firmly diurnal birds.)
|
|
|
Ra'ven is sad, though I mean there
isn't a wolf here right
|
|
|
Eileen:
"I
guess we should go check out that light... and get jumped by
something. Probably something undead."
|
|
|
Io:
(It's
dark af, so it's hard to tell whether there is a wolf or not.)
|
|
|
Itzen:
"Well,
that being the case, I might as well let them know we are here?"
|
|
|
Io:
"They
usually are, yes, but that's not the criteria." They look about
themselves. "A cemetary is essentially secular. Any and all may be
buried there, so long as whatever applicable laws are followed. A
graveyard, though?" They sniff the air a bit, wrinkling their
nostrils. "A graveyard is attached to a church or temple, and
reserved only for their parishioners." They pause. "Er... I'm not
sure you have those, here. Places where the gods are worshipped.
Considering where we are, as Eileen said..."
|
|
|
Eileen starts off down the path, "Take
a look at the headstones as we go, may be well get a clue."
|
|
|
Itzen flips her darksaber back to
lightsaber, though limiting it to 5 squares instead of 20
|
|
|
Io:
(gonna
move you over there)
|
=^v^=:
(( background is missing ))
=^v^=:
(( plz set visible ))
=^v^=:
(( thks ))
|
|
Io:
(Yeah,
I was getting to it. Cursors don't move instantly.)
|
|
|
Itzen:
|
A blade of piercing light
|
|
Effect:
All damage delt with this sword is
radiant, as a free action once per round she can swap modes
|
|
Brilliant:
This sword shines with bright or dim
light of the color of the current phase of the wolf out to
20 squares at Itzen's behest but at lest 1 square
|
|
Umbra:
This does not work during a Umbral phase
|
|
|
|
Lucky:
"Well
this isn't creepy at all."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"Yeah.."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"I
mean it's not really... kinda nice in a way..."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Orange
and purple are gentile colors, lots of moss and life for a place
of the dead..."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
(Gentile
colors? Oy vey...)
|
|
|
Lilium:
"It's
just going back to nature, no one is taking care of it."
|
vonel:
(( brb ))
=^v^=:
(( hominims! ))
vonel:
(( back and I did a dumb ))
vonel:
(( put my bake ware into my oven as I
was preheating it ))
vonel:
(( luckly it doesn't hurt any thing ))
|
|
Ra'ven:
"I
mean that's good right? If nobody remembers the graves served
their purpose already..."
|
Eileen sees several tombstones as she goes. Hanali Celanil...
Sashelas... Enoreth... The inscriptions on several of them change as you
walk past. Rillifane becomes Simbi, becomes Aranyani, becomes Geb,
becomes Silvanus, becomes Sucellus. Corellon becomes Oberon, becomes
Kyroni Shaemalas, becomes Solinari.... Thousands of names for hundreds
of the dead, stretching off into the fog and darkness.
|
|
Io gives Ra'ven the angriest, most
offended look that you've ever seen on a dragon's face. "I will
allow our friendship to shield you, otherwise I would have
attacked. The purpose of a grave is remembrance, not forgetting.
And I cannot, *will* not, accept the vanishing of my kith and kin
into nothing."
|
|
|
Eileen rubs her eyes, "To many names."
|
|
|
Io:
"Let's
leave as quickly as possible I no longer wish to be in this
company tonight."
|
|
|
Lilium frowns, "sorry.."
|
|
|
Io:
"You
aren't the one who said it."
|
|
|
Io:
"Your
apology isn't required."
|
|
|
Io walks ahead, pointedly ignoring
Ra'ven as they pass, and keeping about 30 feet between you as you
walk forward.
|
|
|
Ra'ven hmms at that, "Ah, you know
them then."
|
|
|
Io ignores you.
|
Riot:
(( ooooof ))
|
|
Io:
(I
mean, Ra basically said "nah, it's okay that nobody remembers your
people." Io really has no reason to interpret that charitably.)
|
|
|
Eileen contuines down the path weapon
out ready for the ambush.
|
|
|
Io:
(Myself,
I understand that Ra didn't mean it like that.)
|
|
|
Io:
(This
is Io being pissed, not Ganaroth)
|
=^v^=:
(( good, ra actually means it as it's
a testiment to even loss eventally fading, but that sorta doesn't work
super well when it's the dragon's friends xP ))
|
|
Io:
(Yeah,
I totally get that. But like I said, given the context they're
seeing red at the moment. Trying to explain that you genuinely
didn't know is something that may have to come a bit later.)
|
=^v^=:
(( as a 'for the folx at home' of the
sorta tone Ra had ))
Riot:
(( fwiw Lucky is aware of the
awkwardness but doesn't seem at all bothered, whereas Pell is clearly
uncomfortable as fuck lol ))
The party walks forward into the fog. The light of Itzen's sword mingles
with the bluish glow of the mist, combining into a sickly green around
the edges. The mist grows thicker, and all of a sudden, Lucky sees a
shadow race past, too obscured to see much of it's form and moving
faster than a man sprinting. Despite that, there's barely a sound as it
goes by; a bare whispered hiss.
|
|
Io:
(sorry
Pell!)
|
vonel:
(( brb again ))
|
|
Io:
(S'okay!)
|
|
|
Io:
(actually,
Imma grab a little thing, kay?)
|
vonel:
(( making orange chicken and got to
the point were I had to orange the chicken ))
|
|
Lucky:
"Oh,
good. We got things skittering through the fog."
|
Riot:
(( Ohhh orange chicken good ))
|
|
Io:
(nomnomnom)
|
vonel:
(( indeed ))
vonel:
(( need to get back up in a moment or
two to pull everything out so I can eat. ))
|
|
Io:
(no
worries, can wait.)
|
|
|
Itzen:
"At
least you see them."
|
|
|
Lucky:
"Sort
of? Creepy ass shadows flickering through the fog is about it."
|
vonel:
(( all right I got my orange chicken
and rice, I'm good to go. ))
|
|
Itzen:
"Them
being actual shadows would be unplesent."
|
Incidentally, across thousands of miles of open sky, the group
containing Vul is still en route to their destination when he feels the
Pen twitching in his pouch. As it does so, words begin forming on the
wall of Vul's cabin, written in an elegant, looping hand. "The Grave of
Memories, and the Cradle of Dreams. That which is forgotten can be born
again." With that, the pen stops moving, and the progress of words
ceases. A faint wisp of smoke, and the thin smell of burnt wood waft
from the letters.
Riot:
(( O.O ))
Back in the graveyard...
=^v^=:
(( vul does not exist in accessable
token form to be O.O about that ))
|
|
Io:
(It's
okay, I can assume it.)
|
A voice in the dark, distorted but with a clear mocking tone. "So... you
found this place, then. I wonder why you came here. How odd." This time
Itzen does see the shadow, moving close to her side, showing no more
than an a vague shape. Just enough to see that the figure isn't
humanoid. "Felt you enter, but didn't think I'd see you." The voice
chuckles unpleasantly. "This part is dangerous, children. Are you sure
you want to be here?"
|
|
Itzen:
"Here
is but a stop on our journey; it is not our desitnation. Who are
you?"
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
"Come
now. Don't you remember the feel of me? It hasn't been THAT long."
|
"I remember you. The little group of mice tip-toeing through a city of
traps. But so, so helpful for all that."
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
(huh.
Didn't realize I'd typed /e)
|
=^v^=:
(( didn't only Io and Ra directly
talk to the dragon? ))
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
(make
an insight check, please!)
|
|
|
Itzen:
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
(Itzen
is just confused, then. Why is he talking like you should know
him?)
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
(Also,
Io didn't talk to him.)
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
(Io
very much didn't)
|
=^v^=:
(( guess it might have just been Ra
xP ))
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
(I
think Lucky might also have been there. I thought I remembered two
people.)
|
Riot:
(( Lucky spoke to him ))
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
(aha!)
|
Riot:
(( I was just looking up their convo ))
vonel:
(( I know Lilium wasn't even there,
and Eileen didn't talk to him nor was she part of the dream he showed
every one. ))
|
|
Itzen:
"I
would... expect to remember such a person? But I do not recall
you, no."
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
(Right.
Anyone who wasn't there doesn't recognize this voice. Lucky and Ra
definitely do, though.)
|
Riot:
(( found it ))
|
|
Ra'ven perks up a bit, "Oh! It's you!
Hey, I forgot a thing since you were in the dark but..." she
rifles through her pouch and pulls out a small crystal, frowning
slightly cause it's black, "Here, have this!"
|
|
|
Lucky:
"Ah.
You again. The one who knows that language I spoke."
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl pauses. "Am I truly so
forgettable? I must try to make greater impression in the future."
The voice actually sounds a bit sad at that. "Oh... well, look at
that. Toss it over, and I'll let you know some things." The voice
shifts, now speaking from the opposite side. "Oh yes. Familiar,
though not often spoken these days. A shame, really. Not quite as
dead as *these* fellows, but mostly still and silent even so. Why,
have you been chattering to yourself again?"
|
=^v^=:
(( it's a piece of quartz but
dreamworld and her sorta sinisterness has made it blackened almost
jet-like ))
|
|
Ra'ven tosses
|
|
|
Lucky:
"Not
recently, no. That I remember, anyway."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Ah
ya, this is that dragon.. Chrysoberyl, right?" she gestures to the
spot the voice moved to as an attempt at introductions
|
A set of bony talons snakes out of the darkness, plucking the crystal
from the air. "Ah.... I want to know what will happen to this when I
leave. It could be anything, really." A sigh. "Oh, a pity. Still having
trouble connecting? Even after you found the orphan? I really thought
that would have jogged something in you." The voice becomes puzzled as
Ra'ven speaks. "Hmm. No, something strange is going on here. YOU at
least should certainly remember me."
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
(he
is speaking to you each in the order you spoke to him, if it isn't
clear)
|
|
|
Ra'ven nods, "You were the shadow who
spoke to me at the prision right?"
|
|
|
Lilium:
"Is
he a friend of yours Ra?"
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"I
mean, he helped me find the spot the teleport blocker was
hidden.... and about where all the other people were taken."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"And
you really should give a dragon a gem if you meet them for luck."
|
|
|
Lucky scrunches her face in confusion.
"The orphan?"
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
"Well,
I wasn't a shadow. I don't THINK I was a shadow. That was some
time ago. I believe I was a human at the time."
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
"Hmm.
If you are having trouble remembering, I shouldn't say much more.
Or, rather, I *won't* say much more, other than to let you know
that there are a couple of other speakers of that language in Si
En Kelar. Si En Kelar IS still open at this point, yes? Sorry, one
of those things I shouldn't say." He chuckles again.
|
|
|
Ra'ven frowns, "I mean it was a few
days ago.."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Not
the open, but when we met..."
|
|
|
Pell elbows Lucky, pointing at his own
face in exasperation.
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"I
suppose my mo-" she stops, "I mean the powers that conspire in Si
En Kelar could have closed it after we left."
|
|
|
Lucky hisses quietly, "You didn't tell
me you were an orphan, fuckass!"
|
|
|
Pell:
"I
also didn't tell you where I was really from, keep up, Luck."
|
|
|
Pell:
"How
the fuck did they know that, though?"
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Maybe
he's from the same place?"
|
|
|
Pell:
"Even
so, how he knew
me
is what I'm questioning."
|
|
|
Lucky:
"You
assume he means you. Maybe he means ... her."
|
|
|
Pell:
"Not
an orphan."
|
|
|
Ra'ven gestures at the fog, "I mean
you could ask? He's right here and is the only person who'd
know..."
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl laughs "Oh, I know where
you are!" He seems delighted. "You're in an awful lot of trouble,
and not just because you're here, in this place of buried
memories. Even now, right this very minute, men with wings and
blades are inching towards you. Slowly, oh so slowly. One
heartbeat for every hundred of yours. But your time is limited,
and their's is not." He pauses. "..When those blades slide into
you, do you think you'll be able to feel them, even in there? If
so, the pain will streeeeeetched out along your nerves."
|
|
|
Pell sighs. "Okay, fine.
Assuming
you're referring to me, how did you know any of those things about
me?"
|
|
|
Lucky:
"Okaaaaay,
I think that means we probably oughta start makin' moves to get
out of here."
|
|
|
Eileen shorts, "All the more reason
for use to not stand around listening to you."
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
"Hmm.
How to explain. I know, a lie! I could feel you, lost one. The
taste of your longing."
|
vonel:
(( *snorts ))
|
|
Ra'ven titls her head, "I mean, why
are
you
here? You likely escaped the prision, this is a bit
odd to escape to I'd guess?"
|
|
|
Pell:
"What
do you mean, a lie?"
|
|
|
Lucky grabs Pell's collar, and starts
yanking him forward. "If we're being targeted right now, we need
to fucking
go.
"
|
|
|
Eileen keeps going
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Oh!
Actually! Woud you like to help us get out of this trap?" she asks
the dragon, "Since we helped you get out of yours?"
|
|
|
Ra'ven asks that in the tone of an
offer instead of an obligation
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
The
shadow moves again, now standing between you and the light ahead.
Even that is enough to cast a dim silhouette. It seems draconic,
but slashes of light poke through the body, as though it isn't
quite solid. "I agree, you should make some moves to get out of
here. Good luck." He laughs. "Oh, little hellhound. Your
perspective on things is hilarious. And... well, you know what a
lie is, don't you? I'm telling you what definitely didn't happen."
They seem amused. "Or maybe I'm from the future, and I just
remember you from another meeting. Or maybe... Well, I'll see if
you can figure it out." A pause. "Hmm. I could do that. Indeed, I
could do that. But... well, you were the key that was going to
come along eventually. If you didn't let me out, I'd just have
waited until the right person did. But if I don't help you here,
it seems as though you'd be in fairly dire straights. I think what
you did for me is maybe half as important as me helping you here.
How about you give me a little more aid, to sweeten the deal? I'll
need a flight off of this island." He continues without addressing
why a dragon would need a flight. "You'll get me one. I'll leave
with you, we'll shake hands, and that will be that, until next
time."
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
(tl;dr:
What does god need with a starship?)
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"For
you? And to where?"
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
"Yes.
I'll have someone waiting for me in Si En Kelar, so you won't have
to go out of your way."
|
|
|
Ra'ven looks to the party, "I mean do
you think we can get a dragon a flight out of here?"
|
|
|
Lucky:
"Considering
the last time we met, he passed as a human, I think it would be
doable."
|
|
|
Eileen glances at Io
|
|
|
Io eyes Eileen cagily, then sighs,
apparently realizing that the dragon would have heard them
speaking anyway. "I would be willing. But you will honor the
pledge reciprocity, or you will be taken to account."
|
|
|
Io:
*pledge
OF reciprocity."
|
|
|
Itzen:
"A
flight
with us
back to Sie En Kelar. Will you be a dragon
shape or the like?"
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
"Done!
And no, I'm not surprised that you know what that is, wyrmling. In
any case, I'll be in human shape. A child, age six or seven, with
blonde hair and green eyes, will come up to you as you are
purchasing tickets, and tug on YOUR coat, Izen! Buy him a ticket
too. Oh, and one last thing. Don't tell Dinesh about me.
Completely omit my part in this. Samir is fine. Do we have a deal?"
|
|
|
Lucky flinches at "wyrmling," hoping
Io doesn't take offense.
|
You can see the fine scales on the back of Io's neck shift slightly, but
they otherwise don't react.
|
|
Lucky:
"Don't
tell Dinesh, got it. I do not want to know why you get along with
Samir and not his brother, honestly."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"See,
even if it's a trick or a trap, it's at least one that sounds fun,
right?"
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
"This
is why we get along so well, Ra'ven. Fun is important. If not for
fun, why live even a single additional day? As for the
brothers...politics, mainly. It's all fairly tedious."
|
|
|
Lucky:
"Sounds
about right. I fuckin' hate politics. Especially here."
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
"Thoroughly
unpleasant little berg burg, isn't it? If it wasn't for it's prime
natural resource, there'd be no point coming her at all."
|
|
|
Itzen:
"Perhaps
it had to do with why you were in that cell in the first place. No
matter. I have no current reason to reject your aid."
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
(ffs.)
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
((multiple
typos. Augh.)
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
"Oh,
it definitely had to do with that. But the how and why are.. hmm,
shall we say, very much in the air?" He chuckles from within the
shadow, moving away from the light again. "Well, if we have a
deal, I'll see about releasing you. Oh, and you might need one
extra thing, if you are where I think you are." A small parcel
comes flying into your circle of light, plopping down at Eileen's
feet. It looks like a square of folded cloth. "We'll call that
thanks for not being louder about me than necessary." Suddenly, a
massive green head emerges into your light as well, forest green
scales with a texture like fine ceramic flickering unsteadily to
reveal bones wound about with golden thread, and then back to
scales. It bares its teeth in a draconic smile. "Now, for the sake
of... fun... watch this."

ThE AiR SeEmS To ThIcKeN AND then iT BReaKS.
Riot:
(( Sp sp sp SPONGEBOB?! ))
Riot:
(( sorry, sorry ))
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
"And
now, they slowly opened their eyes. It was still in the room,
though the sounds of guards closing in on their position were
unmistakable. The glow of the cube faded away, and the stone was
cool under their backs. It must have only been a few minutes at
the very most since they had been pulled into the dream. Now they
were back... but the Gray Angel and his minions would be on them
soon. Luckily, they had everything they needed to defeat him,
claim the Soma, and most importantly, flee with Chrysoberyl safely
in tow. After they accomplished their own tasks, of course."
|
Riot:
(( O.O again ))
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"Ugh...
what the actual...?"
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
((Sorry
not necessary. Spongebob is always relevant.))
|
|
|
Ra'ven hops to her feet, "I mean it
wasn't a portal, right?"
|
|
|
Chrysoberyl:
"The
voice of their savior was already starting to fade from their
awareness. They had no way of knowing that the portal they saw
only led to another dream... this one masquerading as your
reality. It was a good thing that the wise dragon had aided
them...."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"I
bet Vul will be jellous we met a storytelling dragon."
|
The voice does in fact fade over the course of its speech.
|
|
Eileen sits up and looks around to see
if the parcel that got tossed at her is some were near by.
|
|
|
Pell groans as he sits up, too. "You
know. Some days, I really, really hate magic."
|
|
|
Lucky:
"Don't
you
do
magic, smart guy?"
|
|
|
Pell:
"Not
mutually exclusive, shut up."
|
|
|
Lilium:
"I
was about to say."
|
The folded cloth lies at your feet. It actually looks much, much weirder
in reality than it did in the dream. There it just looked like black
cloth. In the waking world, it looks as though someone took a square of
NOTHING and folded it up.
|
|
Pell turns to look at Eileen's parcel
|
|
|
Itzen:
"The
days where magic has caused you more harm then help are not
exactly unique."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"Exactly
the kind of magic that I don't like and am not great at..."
|
|
|
Eileen:
"Reminds
me of Krises sword a bit..."
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher:
"Huh.
One of these days, I'm going to get Kris to let me take a look at
it. That thing is all kinds of wacky."
|
|
|
Ra'ven giggles, "I feel better. Will
feel even better once we get outside. Bet Vul'd really like that.
It's folded unspace."
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"I
mean, that's what it looks like, right?"
|
|
|
Ra'ven pulls out one of her spare tail
spines and pokes at the folded thing
|
|
|
Eileen picks it up as she stands and
looks to the gate.
|
|
|
Lucky stands up and walks over,
looking closely at the nothing. "Huh. What in the seven sumps is
this thing?"
|
The first poke encounters resistance, and you see the square move,
though you can't see the cloth being pressed. The absolute blackness
shows no shading or texture. The second poke meets no resistance at all,
and the spine simply passes into it.
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Fancy!
Maybe a thing to take the Soma? Not sure how it'd help defeat the
Gray and it'd be a bit silly to have no use to either."
|
Riot:
(( turns out Vantablack actually
is
magic ))
=^v^=:
(( maybe a portable hole! ))
|
|
Io:
"Our
"benefactor" never said it would defeat Gray, only that we would
need it."
|

Lilium:
"I
know that thing is intersting, but shouldn't we be focusing on
them."
|
|
|
Lilium points to the gate.
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Oh,
did we want to steal her?" she gestures at the tomb
|
|
|
Eileen looks at the sarcophagus then
at Io, "I don't think we need to worry, right?"
|
|
|
Kaylen Fisher blinks, then looks at
the square of black cloth. "Um. So, I know you're understandably
sensitive about this sort of thing, Io, but, uh, what if the Soma
ISN'T what we're supposed to use this for?"
|
|
|
Ra'ven does not hide particularly well
that she abosoultly does want to steal the sleeping bow person
|
|
|
Io:
"Why
would I be sensitive about this? I left my bones behind where you
found me too. Mortals and their superstitions... Let's break this
thing open."
|
|
|
Ra'ven tries to jimmy it open instead
of smashing
|
|
|
Ra'ven is actually bad at smash unlike
lucky who is good at it
|
|
|
Lucky:
"If
you need me to smash it, lemme know."
|
Ra'ven will need to make a thievery check.
|
|
Ra'ven:
"I
mean she's sleepign so maybe I can teleport her if I can see her a
little"
|
|
|
Ra'ven:
|
|
|
Eileen unfolds the weird nothing to
try and figure it out a bit while the others open the sarcophagus.
|
Ra'ven quickly finds what appears to be a puzzle lock built into one of
the ornate corners of the sarcophagus, and after manipulating it for a
bit, manages to trip it. A loud *Clank* issues from within, and the lid
cracks open. Inside lies a skeleton, that of a tall woman with
proportions much like an elf or human's. The bones also appear to be
made of solid silver, untarnished by the passing of millenia. As for
Eileen, once unfolded the square seems to barely even be there. Your
fingers touch each other on either side of it as though nothing were
there at all, but when you *intend* it, you seem to be able to pass into
the blackness. It does seem like a portable hole, although those of you
who have seen them before would also note that this seem unusually
complete. Normally there is some sense of depth to them, while this one
just seems to cut reality off at the boundary.
|
|
Ra'ven:
"That's
a lot deeper sleep then I expected."
|
|
|
Io:
"A
hope you didn't expect to resurrect a goddess by shaking her
shoulders."
|
|
|
Lucky:
"Do
we... take her bones?"
|
|
|
Lucky:
"I
don't know how this shit works."
|
|
|
Io:
(typos
for the typpooo gahd.)
|
Riot:
(( Io suddenly talks like Foghorn
Leghorn ))
|
|
Ra'ven:
"Well,
the tradtional cursed with sleep would be a kiss on a hand or
something..." she shrugs, "I mean for princesses at least. this
god thing isn't really in stories."
|
|
|
Eileen:
"I'm
not sure a kiss will regrow... um... everything."
|
Riot:
(( "Ah hope, ah say ah hope ya didn'
expect ta resurrect a gawdess bah shakin' 'er shoulduhs!" ))
|
|
Ra'ven gingerly tries touching the
hand of the skeleton, unsure what exactly silver goddess bones
does to something like her
|
|
|
Io:
"But
the idea of princesses being kissed awake survived into the
present?" They shake their head. "I didn't expect to find her here
at all. I have no idea what it would take, and we don't have the
time to figure it out now. I'll apologize for treating her bones
roughly, and be glad to do so if I get the opportunity." They
reach into the sarcophagus, and grab one of Sehanine's femurs in
their mouth. "Hllld opnnnn th hllll."
|
|
|
Io:
(Hold
open the hole.)
|
|
|
Eileen nods holding it open for Io and
the others.
|
|
|
Io:
(Ok
folks Since the next thing is probably a fight, I'm gonna call it
tonight. We'basically only have time to roll initiative.
)
|
|
|
Itzen:
|
Does.. does it have claws?
|
|
Effect:
She conjures a floating spectral hand, it
can move and lift things and the like.
|
|
Sustain (Minor):
The hand persists.
|
|
Move action:
The hand moves up to 5 squares
carying what it's holding.
|
|
Minor action:
The hand can pick up or manuplate an
object 20lbs or less.
|
|
Free action:
The hand drops what it's holding.
|
|
|
|
Itzen being a normal werewolf
pointedly avoids touching silver bones
|
|
|
Io:
(That...
makes a lot of sense.)
|
|
|
Lucky starts gathering them up, to
throw in her pack, unless anyone objects.
|
=^v^=:
(( I mean I think we were hole-ing
them ))
Riot:
(( what, chucking them through the
nothing? ))
|
|
Io:
(You
can discuss that issue as you will. Just tell me what you decide.
I also have no idea what a human skeleton made of silver would
weigh...)
|
|
|
Io:
(I
expect Lucky could carry it with trivial effort, though.)
|
Riot:
(( I think chucking them through
without knowing what's on the other side is probably not the best plan,
unless I'm missing something ))
|
|
Io:
(Darn.
Chrysoberyl's plan to steal a goddess has been foiled!)
|
|
|
Io:
(Thanks
for playing, all! I had fun tonight.)
|
vonel:
(( I would assume us the hole that
weighs nothing to carry them, can't imange what a nightmare getting them
checked at the airship is going to be like. ))
|
|
Io:
(I
meant for if Lucky was putting the bones in her bag instead)
|
|
|
Io:
(Imma
sign out now. Stay awesome!)

Riot:
It
took me and my best friend forever to beat him on the NES back in
the day
|
|
|
vonel:
NES
FF is worst way to play FF any more, sadly.
|
|
|
Riot:
I
mean I only ever beat FF1 once
|
|
|
vonel:
Not
when it was the only way
|
|
|
Riot:
FF2
and FF3 on SNES were significantly better
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
0
times here. I never had a console until ps2.
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
And
haven't had a console since ps2, lol.
|
|
|
Riot:
I
mean FF2 and FF3 because when they were released on SNES they were
not 4 and 6
|
|
|
vonel:
Thought
you had a cube for a while? Or was that someone elses?
|
|
|
Riot:
I
still replay FF3/6 on the SNES emulator
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
Nah,
that was Sean's.
|
|
|
Riot:
Every
couple of years
|
|
|
=^v^=:
I
own a ps4 at least
|
|
|
vonel:
They
actually were, FF2 US was really FF4 and FF3 US was FF6.
|
|
|
=^v^=:
and
final fantasy legend 2 was saga fronteer 1
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
My
brother has had a N64, Cube, and an X-Box. When we were growing
up, I mean. Now I'm sure he has whatever.
|
|
|
Riot:
But
they were released here as 2 and 3 and I specify that because I
mean I was playing them OG on the actual SNES lol
|
|
|
Riot:
Because
I am old as dirt
|
|
|
vonel:
Hey
I still have my ff2 and ff3 SNES carts
|
|
|
=^v^=:
i
beat the first game of kirby's superstars on a commercial break
between cartoons
|
|
|
Riot:
Mine
got lost over time
|
|
|
=^v^=:
I
gave away all my pre-ps2 stuff
|
|
|
Ganaroth:
Heh,
I remember going over to a friend's house to play the original
legend of zelda, so it's not like I have no memories of that. I
just didn't own a console.
|
|
|
vonel:
If
you like randomizers there's an ff3/6 one that's really good
|
|
|
=^v^=:
also
all the carts
|
|
|
=^v^=:
disks
can maybe be used for emulation
|
|
|
Riot:
Also
sorry I usually have to make the delineation because some of my
friends don't realize I mean I had them on the SNES back when they
were new lol
|
|
|
=^v^=:
I
think you are youngest here
|
|
|
=^v^=:
or
everyone could be within a year of eachother
|
|
|
Riot:
I
didn't realize we were basically the same age lol
|
|
|
Riot:
I'm
so used to being the oldest one even in my older friend groups
|
|
|
=^v^=:
guess
I'm youngest uwu
|
|
|
Riot:
Oh
no the horror lol
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
Haha.
Yeah, 42 here also.
|
|
|
vonel:
I'm
the oldest in the other firend groups, got most of the beat by at
least 10 years
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
We're
all OOOOOLLLLLLD.
|
|
|
Riot:
lol
yeah I am mainly the same way Von
|
|
|
Riot:
Got
a lot of younger millennials and zoomers in my orbit and it makes
me feel ancient
|
|
|
Riot:
I
sent a screenshot of me bitching about the Earth Lich from FF1 to
my best friend that I mentioned and he just fucking laughed at me
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
I
no longer have other friend groups. I have like, a friend that's
not part of this one, but I don't connect to another group through
him.
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
Is
ok. I don't even handle the friends I have well.
|
|
|
vonel:
my
other groups are people I know from work
|
|
|
Riot:
I
have one IRL friend group these days, but online I have a few
|
|
|
=^v^=:
my
other friends are not in groups
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(Ready,
more or less?)
|
|
|
=^v^=:
since
they don't do shared group activities with other frineds of mine,
but ya we can gaaame

Last time on dnd, you exited the dream thanks to a mysterious
intervention by Chrysoberyl, who provided egress and some kind of
altered Portable Hole, or similar storage device. It seems as though
there is something a little different about it, but Kay wasn't able to
figure it out. Currently, however, several angels have arrived. As you
watch, they assemble on the other side of the gate. You can see them
easily enough, thanks to the transparent barrier, but they don't attempt
to open the gate, or to break it down. Instead, they continue to
assemble, evidently marshalling their numbers. Behind the line of other
angelic beings, a figure that must be The Gray Angel appears. It stands
a head taller than the others, and not only seems to be gray, but almost
hewn from stone; even the feathers of its wings seem more like carvings
than anything, and what few features it has seem roughly defined, and
almost primitive. A pair of skeletons follow behind him, a faint
radiance surrounding the three. (There are currently 4 angels of Valor,
1 angel of protection, 1 angel of winter (you haven't seen this one
before, but it's hard to imagine that nobody makes a roll to recognize
it.), Gray angel and the 2 Skeletons. I'll set them up, but none of them
are making aggressive moves at the moment.)
Riot:
(( I just posted a video that I may
have posted before but I realized this group might appreciate more than
others ))
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(Neat.)
|
=^v^=:
(( oh shit stone angel, nobody look
away ))
Riot:
(( thassalottabirdpeople ))
|
|
Itzen 's obligitory check for the
portal
|
|
|
Itzen:
|
=^v^=:
(( lol ))
Riot:
(( Oh I forgot to have Pell roll to
inspect the thing ))
|
|
Pell:
|
=^v^=:
(( kay's 1 does, in fact, beat
itzen's 2 ))
=^v^=:
(( pell's 16 beats both of them tho ))
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(snrk.
Pell recognizes this sort of thing! This is actually an upgrade to
the standard Portable Hole, called a Portable Vault. The weight
capacity is greater, it contains a function similar to a Handy
Haversack, so that the desired item well immediately come to hand,
and is sealed by an Arcane Lock. Anyone using the item when it is
unlocked can set a password that allows others to open it up.)
|
Riot:
(( oh cool ))
Riot:
(( Pell would relay that but as we're
watching the active build up of badmens that's less of a pressing
concern ))
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(They
are occasionally used for transporting important cargo from place
to place in active combat zones, since the enemy won't be able to
easily gain access even if they capture or kill the messenger.)
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(Indeed.)
|
|
|
Itzen very obviously does not touch
the silver bones, "You know, I do not think we will talk our way
out of this."
|
|
|
Pell indicates to toss the bones in
the magic hole
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
"That
depends on you, really."
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
"Would
you mind telling me why you came here?"
|
"I'm quite certain I've never purposely caused any of you harm, after
all."
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(darn)
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
"I'm
quite certain I've never purposely caused any of you harm, after
all."
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(reflexive
/e )
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(Are
you there? Am I there?)
|
=^v^=:
(( yes ))
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(There
is a limit to how much I can just talk to myself, people.)
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(yeah,
even me.)
|
|
|
Itzen:
"You
do, however, purposefully cause harm to the poor."
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
"Are
you here on their behalf, then?"
|
Riot:
(( I am not sure how to respond to
that without getting us into a fight lmao ))
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(Neither
he nor I tell you.)
|
Riot:
(( lmao ))
|
|
Itzen:
"We
are here on my behalf, actually. I would rather prefer a lot of
people to not die. Your setup happens to invite well-meaning
'heroes' to stop it though."
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
"Ah.
I see." The thing nods its head, giving the impression that a
somber expression is crossing its nonexistant face. "Are you the
assassins that have been eliminating city Patricians? The have
been three deaths among my peers already, and one disappearance.
Why does attacking me help to keep others, not my customers, from
dying?"
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
"Perhaps
if I know your desires, we can arrive at a more constructive
relationship to each other."
|
|
|
Itzen sighs, "Why should I ignore the
plights you cause when it's right in my face?"
|
|
|
Itzen:
"The
deaths are the result of the circumstances we ran across them in."
|
=^v^=:
(( by the way, Itzen is likely going
to be picking a fight, is that a problem for anyone? ))
|
|
The Gray Angel:
""Because
if you are the assassins, and pledge to leave without causing
violence, I'll offer none towards you." It tilts its head to one
side. "I have no desire to die, and I don't believe myself so much
stronger than the others that you pose no threat to me."
|
Riot:
(( I mean as much as I'd like to be
able to talk / intimidate our way out of it, both of my characters would
hate this guy for what he's done to the local population of the less
fortunate ))
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(I
understand.)
|
vonel:
(( No problems with fight picking
here ))
=^v^=:
(( ya, Itzen is not, in fact, a
utilitarian about this sorta stuff ))
|
|
Itzen:
"Will
you simply stop the harm you cause to those in this city? For the
barter?"
|
|
|
Itzen:
"Your
setup is a mockery of the idea of Mercy and it seems even of the
ideals the one you draw power from used to represent!"
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
"That
is too much. It would simply be violence of another kind, ending
my ability to provide for myself and for those in my care. Other
concessions might be possible, however. You only have to ask. I am
an entity of business. An entity of peace." It is silent for a few
moments. "You won't agree. Of course not. It takes a rare person
to truly appreciate death's mercy. Well, as you will, then. I've
already contacted the city guard, and have called for additional
reinforcements of my own, so I wish you as little pain as
possible."
|
|
|
Itzen:
"You
yourself do not wish to experence it."
|
|
|
The Gray Angel begins floating away.
"Death will take me one day, when I can no longer serve it."
|
=^v^=:
(( question, do we have a way to drop
the barrier? ))
=^v^=:
(( also we prob should be setup where
fight is ))
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(Yes,
you do. There is an interior panel that probably does that)
|
=^v^=:
(( prob itzen signals someone to hit
the button to charge ))
=^v^=:
(( also mebby set up your pogs ))
Riot:
(( were this something like BG3, right
now would be when I quicksaved lol ))
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(Don't
know what Pogs means, so (shrugs))
|
Riot:
(( pogs and slammers oh lordy ))
|
|
The Gray Angel:
That
cleared up nothing.
|
=^v^=:
(( pogs are another word for tokens,
aka the character things we move around ))
Riot:
(( I tried my best to explain in the
discord ))
=^v^=:
(( rioto correctly identifies where
they CAME from though ))
Riot:
(( Kids 'toys' from the 90s ))
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(I
know what a token is. Please don't treat me like an idiot for not
knowing a term nobody has used in my presence before.)
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(Totally,
honest, I don't know that I want to continue. I'm kinda hurt.)
|
Riot:
(( (I definitely wasn't trying to come
across like that - my pogs and slammers comment was a response to
Akaiku's initial 'mebby set up your pogs', not your statement about not
knowing what it meant! Sorry) ))
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(Your
comment wasn't the hurtful part.)
|
=^v^=:
(( I was trying to explain? ))
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(So
you felt you needed to explain what a token was to me?)
|
=^v^=:
(( err, I meant it in the both of
those statments being pogs ))
=^v^=:
(( aka, "The things we move around,
you know, tokens." ))
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(You
may note that isn't what you wrote, though.)
|
=^v^=:
(( yes I had those statments in
opposite order, which does not, in fact, change my intention ))
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(It
doesn't change the intention, but it certainly changes the
meaining of the sentence.)
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(The
second clause modifies the word "tokens" not the phrase "thing you
move around."
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
AKA
you decided to define "token" to me.
|
|
|
The Gray Angel:
(I
think it's best to find another day this week. I can't get my
enthusiasm back at this point.)
