A little horror, a little evilness from my dice. ... Okay, I love my dicebot.
<@Kyo-DM> - - - Sunday Afternoon, One Shot Campaign. Hosted by the friendliest (scarily enough) channel operator of #TFF. ôWelcome to Horrorville, population of four Players and two Dungeon Masters.ö - - -
[11:24] <+Erli> Like the Mark of Cain?
06[11:25] * +Envidi counts 5 players.
01[11:25] <@Kyo-DM> Eva is the dicebot.
[11:25] <+Envidi> Kay.
[11:25] <Zombine_Zero> (And a resident pet combine zombie.)
01[11:25] <@Kyo-DM> You arrived in this area, suddenly via magical portal from some wizard likely just playing around with his or her newly gained arcane powers over the void. The landing wasn't really painful, but it was jarring. Getting up, all you see is forest and road beyond the clearing you landed in.
01[11:25] <@Kyo-DM> Getting your bearings together, you all walk towards the road and hope it leads to civilization.
01[11:25] <@Kyo-DM> The road was nothing more then packed dirt, packed dung, and if you look closely, buried bone and stone. A road that many people from tamed and civilized lands won't dream of stepping on, but who says that you were in a tamed land.
06[11:28] * +Erli reflects that the quality of the roads remind him of home...and why he left.
-
06[11:28] * +Melkor looks for signs of civilization in the distance.
06[11:28] * +Envidi winces at the poor state of the area. 'How the mighty have fallen,' she thinks to herself, carefully stepping to avoid the dung.
-
06[11:29] * +Dren twitches (again). "Have I commented on overexciteable bookworms yet? I was busy."
06[11:29] * +Envidi looks askance at Dren at takes a careful step away.
-
-
06[11:30] * +Erli just keeps an eye out for trouble, and wonders why in all the hells he got stuck with this lot.
06[11:31] * +Melkor looks around for anything interesting, and keeps his peace.
06[11:32] * +Envidi sighs, and caves to the awkward silence. "Does anyone know where we are?"
01[11:32] <@Kyo-DM> The forest is surprisingly think, the conifers block your view of anything but the road and the clearing you landed it.
01[11:33] <@Kyo-DM> *thick
[11:33] <+Dren> "Some backwoods shithole."
06[11:33] * +Melkor remarks " Tis a most somber and foreboding place. It's like my bones are chilled by the very air"
[11:34] <+Dren> "Though, that's just a guess. Maybe there's a sign up indicating which backwoods shithole."
[11:34] <+Erli> "No idea," the dwarf says gruffly. "Though that doesn't say much, there's a lot of areas with little to no development around..."
06[11:34] * +Erli should know. He came from several of them.
[11:35] <+Melkor> "Mayhap, but a path indicates some form of civilization. Continuing on this path will lead us to it. And thus, some answers"
06[11:35] * +Envidi ponders. Two somewhat agreeable, if not very helpful, people, and one irritating fool.
01[11:36] <@Kyo-DM> The air is slightly heavy with moisture, a thin bank of fog quickly rolls in and dissappears.
[11:36] <+Erli> "Probably. Might be something nasty in the area, though, so we should probably keep an eye out."
[11:36] <+Melkor> "Indeed."
06[11:37] * +Dren nods.
06[11:37] * +Erli shrugs, activating his Senses aura, and starts down the path.
[11:37] <+Erli> "No point delaying."
06[11:37] * +Melkor follows with a nod.
06[11:37] * @Kyo-DM noms OoC on he that brings up Aura Sensing.
[11:38] <+Erli> (( Hrmm? ))
[11:38] <+Erli> (( Ah. PM. ))
01[11:38] <@Kyo-DM> (( Check your queries. ))
01[11:40] <@Kyo-DM> As you travel down the road, you begin to hear the excitable howl of coyotes.
[11:40] <+Melkor> "Wild beasts."
06[11:40] * +Dren just sighs. "Great. Just wonderful."
06[11:40] * +Melkor draws his sword.
[11:40] <+Erli> "I'm more concerned about what has them stirred up," the dwarf notes.
[11:41] <+Dren> "Food? Translation, us?"
06[11:41] * +Erli has had his axe out for awhile.
[11:41] <+Melkor> "Then there is no point in not being prepared for trouble."
06[11:41] * +Melkor checks his shield's straps.
06[11:42] * +Dren sighs again and pulls a bow from his back, nocking an arrow.
[11:42] <+Erli> "Perhaps. Hard to say. Could be something else giving them trouble...them running into something nastier." He shrugs again. "We'll find out soon enough, if we're not careful."
02[11:42] * +Envidi (~heathen09@74-137-96-177.dhcp.insightbb.com) Quit (Ping timeout)
[11:43] <+Melkor> "Indeed."
01[11:43] <@Kyo-DM> A different howl is heard this time, in another direction from where the coyotes' howls came from.
[11:44] <+Melkor> "Correct me if I'm wrong. That was not any beast I know of."
06[11:44] * +Dren sweatdrops. "More fun."
[11:45] <+Melkor> "Hardly"
01[11:45] <@Kyo-DM> Howling. As you take your next step forward, a sudden howl goes up to the southeast of you. As each of you react, a small group of wolf like creatures step out of the forest, onto the road. Looking at each of you as if you were filet mignon.
[11:45] <+Dren> "See, that was what some people in the city call 'sarcasm'."
06[11:45] * +Erli shrugs. "Hard to tell from here...but eh. With luck, we won't be finding out. Sadly, I don't hold too much faith in luck."
06[11:46] * +Melkor brightens up, ignoring Erli's reply.
[11:46] <+Erli> "...for obvious reasons."
[11:46] <+Erli> (( Roll initiative? ))
01[11:46] <@Kyo-DM> Yep.
06[11:46] * +Dren nods. "Clearly."
[11:46] <+Melkor> "At last, a challange." he says, "Thought they be but beasts."

[11:47] <+Erli> (( With my current aura. ))

[11:48] <+Erli> ((So your init should be 15, I believe. ))
03[11:50] * HeathenAway (~heathen09@74-137-96-177.dhcp.insightbb.com) has joined #SOS
03[11:50] * HeathenAway is now known as Envidi
01[11:50] <@Kyo-DM> Need Melkor and HH's Init:

[11:51] <+Erli> (( Roll init. ))
[11:51] <+Erli> (( And remember my aura grants +1. ))
01[11:51] <@Kyo-DM> (( Sent you the logs))
[11:51] <+Melkor> (( Eva just did. No?))
[11:51] <+Dren> (Melkor's got 15. And, Envidi, what's the last line you got? I'll PM backlog)
[11:51] <+Dren> (That works too )
[11:51] <Envidi> <@Kyo-DM> As you travel down the road, you begin to hear the excitable howl of coyotes.
[11:51] <Envidi> <+Melkor> "Wild beasts."
[11:52] <+Erli> (( *pokes Envidi for initiative* ))
[11:53] <Envidi> (( *is still having difficulty loading stuffs* ))
[11:53] <+Melkor> ((with Erli's Aura, I'm as fast as the slowest of them.)

[12:01] <+Dren> (Evangeline, I know you want us to die and all, but it's the duty of a dicebot to at least pretend to hide it.)
[12:01] <+Melkor> (( AC 23))
01[12:01] <@Kyo-DM> Melkor's turn.
06[12:02] * +Melkor blocks the attack, and replies with a Power Attack to his attacker.

[12:05] <+Melkor> ((okay, learning. And no additional actions))
06[12:06] * +Dren ducks back a bit, tsking and slinging the bow back in place, then casting a spell. (Mage Armour up)
01[12:06] <@Kyo-DM> Envidi's turn.
[12:06] <+Envidi> (( Have ANY attacks succeeded thus far? ))

[12:09] <+Envidi> Rolling :X
[12:09] <+Envidi> (( Typo'd the first roll. It should only be an 18. ))
[12:09] <+Envidi> (( Still a hit? ))

[12:09] <+Evangeline> Envidi, 2d6+5: 10 [2d6=3,2]

06[12:17] * +Dren draws a rapier from his waist, and circles around to get behind the wolf Erli hit before lunging to impale it from behind. "Would you dogs just die?"
[12:17] <+Dren> 1d20+7
[12:17] <+Evangeline> Dren, 1d20+7: 17 [1d20=10]

01[12:18] <@Kyo-DM> Envidi's turn.
06[12:18] * +Envidi turns to the wolf the other two had struck. It was bleeding a bit now. She swung her sword at it; it was about to be bleeding a lot more.
01[12:18] <@Kyo-DM> You did technically flank them, Dren.
[12:19] <+Envidi> (( Do I get the flanking bonus if I attack that one then? ))
01[12:19] <@Kyo-DM> Do you have Sneak Attack?
[12:19] <+Envidi> (( No, but flanking is still a +2 to attack rolls isn't it? ))
[12:19] <@theOtherDM> (( yep ))
01[12:19] <@Kyo-DM> You also have a wolf at you too.
[12:20] <+Envidi> (( Mmmm. AoO. ))

01[12:24] <@Kyo-DM> Used the wrong roll at first.

01[12:24] <@Kyo-DM> Erli's Turn
03[12:25] * Scratx-nekochan (~Scratx@80.243.86.237) has joined #SOS
[12:25] <+Envidi> (( Wait a sec. Doesn't Erli have an aura on that gives us Dr 1/- ?
[12:25] <+Erli> (( DR 1/magic, technically. ))
[12:25] <+Envidi> (( Are these wolf-things getting past that magic DR? ))
[12:26] <+Erli> ((It only absorbs one point of damage. << ))
01[12:26] <@Kyo-DM> Physical attacks.
[12:26] <+Envidi> (( Kay. ))
06[12:26] * +Erli attacks a nearby wolf, preferably one that looks injured, since his player is totally confused as to what is where.
[12:27] <+Erli> 1d20+6
[12:27] <+Evangeline> Erli, 1d20+6: 8 [1d20=2]

[12:27] <+Evangeline> Kyo-DM, Bite against melkor: 10 [1d20=4]
[12:27] <@theOtherDM> (( So they're getting past it by simply throwing more damage at you then the aura absorbs. But you can do the -1 to any physical attack that hits you yourself. ))
01[12:28] <@Kyo-DM> Melkor's Turn
[12:28] <+Erli> (( 'Xactly. >> ))
06[12:28] * +Melkor blocks and attacks again, cursing at the foul beast.
[12:28] <+Melkor> 1d20+8
[12:28] <+Evangeline> Melkor, 1d20+8: 9 [1d20=1]
01[12:29] <@Kyo-DM> ... Eva, I love you and all that, but you're killing my players before I get to the plot.
[12:29] <+Melkor> ((auto- miss?))
[12:29] <+Erli> (( Criticial miss. >> ))
[12:29] <+Melkor> ((i miss and cut my head off?))
01[12:29] <@Kyo-DM> Yep. And as I didn't tell anyone ahead of time, none of my entertaining Nat 1 issues.
[12:29] <+Dren> (Which is to say, it tries to hit me? ... Actually, don't, I'm rather low on HP at the moment )
01[12:30] <@Kyo-DM> Dren's turn.
06[12:30] * +Dren reaches down to his waist and lays a hand on a wand, then reaches out with his left hand, crackling with electricity. Yes, he does have a slightly maniacal grin. "Bite me, will you?"
[12:30] <+Melkor> ((So 'Im already dead?))
[12:30] <+Dren> 1d20+7 touch attack on the one that hit me (W1?)
[12:30] <+Evangeline> Dren, touch attack on the one that hit me (W1?): 26 [1d20=19]
[12:30] <+Dren> (Oh my.)
[12:30] <+Envidi> (( So close. ))
[12:30] <+Dren> 4d6 I'm guessing that hit
[12:30] <+Evangeline> Dren, I'm guessing that hit: 7 [4d6=1,1,4,1]
[12:31] <+Erli> (( >> ))
[12:31] <+Dren> (... Though the damage roll sucked...)
[12:31] <+Erli> (( T_T ))
01[12:31] <@Kyo-DM> W1 is electrictilly shocked to death.

[12:31] <@theOtherDM> (( Melkor: No. Nothing beyond really, really missing for a natural 1 this game ))
01[12:31] <@Kyo-DM> Envidi's turn.
[12:31] <+Melkor> ((Oh thank the DM))
06[12:32] * +Envidi frowns as the familiar fog of battle descends, making everything harder to think of, too many things to notice. But blood, blood was red. Bright, in the gloomy setting. And it drew the eye. She layed about with the sword, striking the closest wounded wolf.
06[12:32] * +Dren flicks his fingers, and brings the rapier back up.
[12:32] <+Envidi> 1d20+8
[12:32] <+Evangeline> Envidi, 1d20+8: 22 [1d20=14]
01[12:32] <@Kyo-DM> Hit
[12:33] <+Envidi> 2d6+4
[12:33] <+Evangeline> Envidi, 2d6+4: 15 [2d6=6,5]
[12:33] <+Dren> (Finally, some decent rolls...)
01[12:34] <@Kyo-DM> W2 and W5 jointly attack Erli again while W4 tries to retreat, limping all the while.
01[12:34] <@Kyo-DM> 1d20+6 Bite against Erli
[12:34] <+Evangeline> Kyo-DM, Bite against Erli: 21 [1d20=15]

01[12:36] <@Kyo-DM> (( Anyone going for an AoO against W4?))
[12:36] <+Melkor> ((is he near me?))
[12:36] <+Envidi> (( I'll do it. I know he was near me, seeing as I made em flee. ))
[12:36] <+Envidi> (( That was the one I hit, right? ))
01[12:36] <@Kyo-DM> W4 was the one attacking you and limping away from you.
06[12:38] * +Envidi grins at the impact that runs up her arm. The grin widens when the worg flees. 'Where do you think *you're* going?' She leveled another swing at its retreating back.
[12:38] <+Envidi> 1d20+8
[12:38] <+Evangeline> Envidi, 1d20+8: 16 [1d20=8]
01[12:38] <@Kyo-DM> Otherwise, Erli's turn. And Envidi's attack misses.
[12:38] <+Melkor> ((so 17 or higher to hit them))
06[12:39] * +Envidi 's eyes narrow as the worg puts on an extra burst of speed, and her sword caught only air.
06[12:39] * +Erli grumbles to himself as he attacks yet another wolf-like creature.
[12:39] <+Erli> 1d20+6
[12:39] <+Evangeline> Erli, 1d20+6: 17 [1d20=11]

[12:40] <+Erli> ((Whichever one someone with a thirty foot speed could attack? >> ))
01[12:41] <@Kyo-DM> All of them...
01[12:41] <@Kyo-DM> But the retreater.
[12:41] <+Erli> ((Then one of the injured ones. ))
[12:42] <+Erli> (( *has been spoiled by OpenRPG's maps* ))
[12:42] <+Dren> (I know... MapTool's so handy.)

01[12:43] <@Kyo-DM> W3 tries to retreat.
[12:44] <+Envidi> (( Does that provoke an AoO from me? ))
01[12:44] <@Kyo-DM> (( And we get it, we use Maptools or OpenRPG for map next time or something. ^^;;
[12:44] <+Erli> (( Or any of us? >> ))
01[12:44] <@Kyo-DM> (( If you hit. ))
06[12:44] * +Melkor notices and shouts "How dare you retreat!" while swinging his sword at it.
[12:45] <+Erli> (( *is vaguely afraid to use his breath weapon without knowing who else is in the way* ))
06[12:45] * +Envidi sees another wolf attempting to flee. She roars in draconic and lets loose a powerful blow.
[12:45] <+Melkor> ((it was attacking me, and the area around me is dangerous terrain due to Bulwark of Defense.))
[12:45] <+Envidi> 1d20+6

[12:47] <+Evangeline> Melkor, 1d8+3: 4 [1d8=1]
01[12:47] <@Kyo-DM> This missed though.
01[12:47] <@Kyo-DM> W3 continues to retreat.
01[12:47] <@Kyo-DM> Melkor's turn.
01[12:48] <@Kyo-DM> W2 and W4, are still with the group.
01[12:48] <@Kyo-DM> Wait...
06[12:48] * +Melkor pursues the wolf, and strikes again, cursing against his foul luck.
01[12:49] <@Kyo-DM> Yep.
[12:49] <+Melkor> (?)
01[12:49] <@Kyo-DM> W2 and W4 are sitll with the group.
[12:49] <+Melkor> (I roll?)
01[12:49] <@Kyo-DM> Yes, you may.

[12:49] <+Melkor> (Damn)
01[12:49] <@Kyo-DM> Dren's turn.
06[12:50] * +Dren ducks around behind W2, boxing it in between himself and (whoever's taking this one on) and making a single quick thrust.
[12:50] <+Dren> 1d20+7
[12:50] <+Evangeline> Dren, 1d20+7: 13 [1d20=6]
[12:50] <+Dren> (Even with the +2 for flanking, miss. Bah.)
01[12:51] <@Kyo-DM> Envidi's turn!
06[12:51] * +Envidi turns from the runners and assists Dren with one of the remaining wolves. A moment's pause to aim, followed by a quick slash.
[12:51] <+Envidi> 1d20+10
[12:51] <+Evangeline> Envidi, 1d20+10: 11 [1d20=1]
[12:52] <+Dren> (At least we're not using 'utter fumble' rules, or you might've assisted one of the remaining wolves with Dren...)
01[12:52] <@Kyo-DM> W2 and W4 both try to retreat now.
[12:53] <+Melkor> (AoO?)
01[12:53] <@Kyo-DM> If anyones wants to try.
06[12:53] * +Envidi 's swing goes way wide, and she has to adjust the blow to avoid hitting one of her companions. She spins completely around, looking rather foolish, and when she can see the wolves again, they're attempting to flee. She follows after, attempting to salvage some of her dignity by bloodying her blade. (( Attacking whichever is more wounded/won't provoke AoO ))
[12:54] <+Dren> 1d20+7+2 AoO W2
[12:54] <+Evangeline> Dren, AoO W2: 23 [1d20=14]

[12:54] <+Evangeline> Envidi, 2d6+4: 10 [2d6=5,1]

03[12:55] * Kyo-DM changes topic to 'Sunday One Shot -- Init Order: Erli, W3, Melkor, Dren, and Envidi'
[12:55] <+Erli> ((How far away is Wolf 3? ))
[12:55] <+Envidi> (( And how far is it moving each round? ))
01[12:55] <@Kyo-DM> Injured wolf, at least 40 feet away.
06[12:56] * +Erli pursues after the wolf in question, the dwarf's lungs inflating, and from about ten feet away, unleashes a thirty foot line of acid as a breath weapon.
[12:57] <+Erli> ((I think breath weapons automatically hit people in the square in question, right? >> They just roll to take less damage?))
[12:57] <+Melkor> (I'm near that wolf, you know. )
01[12:57] <@Kyo-DM> Roll? DC?
[12:57] <+Envidi> (( He ran past you ))
[12:58] <+Erli> ((17 DC ))

[12:59] <+Melkor> (nah)
06[12:59] * +Melkor turns to Erli
06[13:00] * +Envidi 's eyes widen when the dwarf spews the line of acid. "By Kord," she murmurs in Draconic.
06[13:00] * +Dren looks rather disgusted, pulling out a cloth and wiping the blood off his blade. "Annoying little buggers."
01[13:00] <@Kyo-DM> 4 dead wolves, and some injuries inflicted against you.
[13:00] <+Melkor> "Not that I mind the help, unexpected as it was, but please warn me next time. I almost got sprayed."
06[13:01] * +Envidi ignores the whining.
[13:01] <+Envidi> "Injuries?"
06[13:01] * +Erli mostly ignores the various reactions, and cleans off his axe. "Needed my breath for other things, at the time."
[13:01] <+Melkor> "That said, mayhap we shall tend to our wounds... And introduce our more... special abilities?"
06[13:01] * +Dren rubs his arm. "Yes. I hope the damn thing isn't infected, I doubt those things know word one about hygiene."
[13:02] <+Erli> "I've been knocked about a bit, nothing too bad," the dwarf says in response to Envidi's query.
06[13:02] * +Dren puts his rapier back in the sheath.
[13:02] <+Melkor> "I'm perfectly find. The beast could not harm me."
[13:02] <+Melkor> (fine*)
[13:03] <+Envidi> (( HP current / HP total please. We've got wands of Leser Vigor and draconic healing if you're below half. ))
[13:03] <+Dren> (12/20)
[13:03] <+Envidi> (( 36/52 ))
01[13:03] <@Kyo-DM> (( Be back in a few minutes, going to put a pizza in the oven. ))
06[13:03] * +Melkor cleans the blood off his blade and sheaths it. (64/64)
[13:04] <+Erli> 54/71
[13:04] <+Melkor> (RP time?)
[13:04] <@theOtherDM> (( Dren not gestalted? ))
[13:04] <+Erli> ((Dren's a sorcerer/rogue, innit he?))
[13:04] <+Melkor> (God knows I'm not. I'm already rushing to catch up.)
[13:05] <+Dren> (Yes, my HIGH HP class has d6es )
06[13:06] * +Envidi pulls forth a wand of lesser vigor and uses it on herself, Erli, and Dren. ((You all gain 11 health))
[13:06] <@theOtherDM> (( Anyway, yes. Roleplay time. You've got a road... of sorts... to walk down should you need something to do ))
[13:06] <+Envidi> "Is anyone trained in the magic of a Cleric?"
06[13:07] * +Melkor walks to one of the less damaged wolves and kneels down to examine it.
[13:07] <+Envidi> (( Nobody else can use cleric stuffs? Huh. Oh well. 97 charges left. ))
[13:07] <+Erli> "Not I." The dwarf examines his enchanted axe carefully. "I've little interest in such."
[13:07] <+Melkor> "I'm in no way trained to recognize beasts beyond mere appearence, but this does seems... not right."
06[13:07] * +Dren sighs as the wound heals. "Thanks. And no, not my thing."
[13:08] <+Melkor> "And no. I'm but a knight.
[13:08] <+Erli> ))I thought you were a knight/cleric? >> ))
[13:08] <+Erli> *((
[13:08] <+Melkor> (As said yesterday, to much headache)
[13:09] <+Erli> ((*must not have been around for that*))
[13:09] <+Melkor> (I'm already rushing to follow)
06[13:09] * +Envidi nods. "I, am a Trumpet Archon of Kord, God of Strength."
[13:09] <+Erli> ((Well, you're probably really screwed, then, as the only non-gestalt character in an RP with threats geared against gestalt characters.))
[13:10] <+Melkor> (Oh, I know)
[13:10] <+Dren> "Useful. Don't suppose he's listening enough to pick everyone up and send them home?"
[13:10] <+Melkor> ( But I want to get used to dying. Don't want to get frustrated over such things)
01[13:11] <@Kyo-DM> (( Get use to dying? Its something to get use to? ))
[13:11] <+Melkor> "Gods do not oft interfere in the realm of mortals. Unfortunately for us.
[13:11] <+Melkor> ((It happens. And this is a One Shot anyhow.))
[13:11] <+Erli> "Mmph. I'm a warrior from a horrible little place that got overrun awhile back. Good ale, though."
06[13:12] * +Erli shrugs to himself, apparently satisfied that his axe is in reasonable condition.
[13:12] <+Dren> "Acquisitions specialist from a decent city."
06[13:12] * +Melkor frowns.
06[13:12] * +Envidi smirks. "I wouldn't be surprised if Kord were to blame for all of this. Teleported to a savage land, nearly immediately set upon by foul monsters? It's something we followers enjoy."
06[13:13] * +Erli chuckles darkly to himself.
[13:13] <+Melkor> "Then your god is more then foolish. There is no honor in pointless battle."
[13:14] <+Erli> "Well, regardless of why we're here, we're here," the dwarf says. "Best deal with it as we can, unless one of you has a handy way of returning us to our origins."
06[13:14] * +Envidi shrugs. "The honor is not in battle. It is in testing oneself...but to each his own."
[13:14] <+Erli> "I, on the other hand, do not."
[13:14] <+Envidi> (( I actually could have brought a scroll that would do that. ))
[13:15] <+Erli> ((I suspect it would have been destroyed by a terrible, tragic, DM-mandated incident. ))
[13:15] <+Dren> "Eh, follow the road, find what passes for civilization out here, presuming it hasn't been eaten by wolves."
[13:15] <+Melkor> "Yes, to each is own. Shall we continue on this path? We would best not tarry, for the blood of these beasts will certainly draw more."
[13:17] <+Erli> "Indeed. Find out where we are, and how far away from where we used to be it is..." the dwarf shrugs. "Good enough notion as for now." He switches his aura back to Senses.
[13:17] <+Erli> "Just keep an eye out for whatever other...challenges...await us."
06[13:17] * +Envidi glances to the road.
01[13:17] <@Kyo-DM> The coyetes howl out again.
[13:17] <+Dren> "Them?"
06[13:17] * +Melkor looks at his companions.
[13:18] <+Erli> "Amongst other things, potentially..."
[13:18] <+Envidi> "To a man without a destination, any direction is the correct path." *she takes note of the howl* "And away from the wolves is probably the best choice."
[13:18] <+Melkor> "Let us go. I will go to the front."
[13:18] <+Envidi> "I'll bring up the rear."
06[13:18] * +Dren nods. "I'll leave that to you."
06[13:19] * +Erli shrugs. "I don't care, as long as we just get going."
06[13:19] * +Melkor starts walking.
[13:19] <+Melkor> "Do follow."
06[13:19] * +Dren does so.
06[13:19] * +Erli raises an eyebrow, but also starts moving down the path.
06[13:20] * +Envidi takes place at the back of the party, keeping a wary eye on the surroundings.
[13:20] <+Melkor> "These wolves..."
[13:21] <+Dren> "Not normal, mm?"
[13:21] <+Melkor> "In all my hunts with my father and brothers, never we encountered wolves that acted like this."
01[13:21] <@Kyo-DM> As you walk down the road, you all begin to notice that ahead is a junction. An unmarked path overrun with wild grass.
[13:21] <+Melkor> "Three paths."
[13:21] <+Envidi> "Normal wolves avoid groups of people. And when they don't, they die easier."
[13:21] <+Melkor> "Aye"
[13:22] <+Dren> "I say the decent road's more likely to bring us to some manner of civilization."
[13:22] <+Melkor> "I am... concerned."
[13:22] <+Erli> "Hmph. There are many different creatures in other lands." The dwarf doesn't seem concerned, and examines the paths for anything of interest.
01[13:23] <@Kyo-DM> The overgrown path has markings of small foot prints going to and from it.
[13:23] <+Dren> "That's true, but wolves that aggressive and fast would make it difficult to actually build this road... Suggests they're not natural to the area."
06[13:24] * +Melkor kneels next to the tracks.
06[13:24] * +Envidi nods. "A good point."
[13:24] <+Erli> "Depends who...or what...built it." The dwarf ponders, examining the tracks.
[13:24] <+Melkor> "What manner of beast could have made these tracks?"
[13:24] <+Melkor> "If only one of my father's trackers were here..."
01[13:25] <@Kyo-DM> The prints are larger then a wolf's paw, and similiar in design to your own foot prints. Just far smaller.
[13:25] <+Envidi> "Werewolves?"
06[13:25] * +Dren takes a look at the tracks. "I say we find out where we are, we can resolve the mystery of the local wildlife later if at all."
06[13:26] * +Erli vaguely considers smacking Melkor in the back of the head. "Hmm. Fay, perhaps? Seems too large for halflings or gnomes...I think."
[13:26] <+Melkor> "Humanoid, certainly."
[13:27] <+Melkor> "More likely a dwarf then a fay. The Fair Folk are slight and small creatures, according to legends."
[13:28] <+Envidi> "But that doesn't answer the question of which path to take."
06[13:28] * +Erli eyes Melkor with a rather cynical expression. "I think I would recognize the tracks of a dwarf. And fay come in many different packages."
[13:28] <+Dren> "More importantly, how old are the tracks? If this is less than a few hours old, we might as well follow them, otherwise a real road's more likely to get us to a village or whatever."
[13:29] <+Melkor> "One is covered in grass, yet shows signs of use. What of the other path, Dren?"
01[13:29] <@Kyo-DM> (( Anyone with tracking skills? ^^ ))
[13:29] <+Melkor> "I shall defer to your superior experience, Erli."
[13:30] <+Dren> (Search is the closest I've got )
[13:30] <+Melkor> ((Nope, like stated by my character, no Tracking skill))
[13:30] <+Erli> ((Searching, yeah. =X ))
[13:30] <+Dren> (I'm presuming the other path is the road we've been following)
[13:30] <+Melkor> (yes)
[13:32] <+Melkor> "Erli, could these be children's tracks? Human children?"
06[13:32] * +Erli examines the tracks more closely.
[13:33] <+Erli> ((Search check? >> ))
01[13:33] <@Kyo-DM> (( OoC Knowledge: Follow the tracks, you head straight north and towards the plot. Continue down the road, you find civilization. Follow the road up, and you head deeper into wilderness))
01[13:33] <@Kyo-DM> Yes, please.

[13:33] <+Evangeline> Erli, 1d20+6: 19 [1d20=13]
[13:34] <+Dren> (Heh)
01[13:34] <@Kyo-DM> Children's tracks, yes.
01[13:34] <@Kyo-DM> They look semi-recent.
[13:34] <+Erli> "Huh. You're right, I think. Though what the blazes human children are doing out here...I have no idea. Not too far in the past, either, I think..."
06[13:35] * +Dren tsks, standing up. "Dammit... doesn't sit right leaving kids out here."
[13:35] <+Melkor> "As a knight, I should investigate."
06[13:35] * +Dren stretches slightly, and starts down the path after the tracks.
[13:35] <+Melkor> "But whatever brought them here..."
01[13:35] <@Kyo-DM> (( Wee, OoC knowledge really does help. ))
[13:36] <+Melkor> "We should find where they came from first."
[13:36] <+Erli> "Hnh." Erli watches as Dren heads down the path. "Looks like someone's made up his mind."
[13:36] <+Melkor> "Oh..."
06[13:37] * +Erli the dwarf shrugs, and follows Dren. "Might as well try and keep him out of trouble, I suppose."
[13:37] <+Dren> "We can find where they came from after we've taken some effort to make sure they don't get eaten."
06[13:37] * +Envidi sighs. What would Kord do?
[13:37] <+Envidi> "I'm coming too."
06[13:37] * +Melkor looks embarrassed to have been preceded in a honorful path by a thief, and promptly follows.
[13:39] <+Erli> (( Hmm. Take a break for lunch or something before getting deeper into plot? ))
[13:39] <+Erli> (( *ish hungry* ))
01[13:39] <@Kyo-DM> The party follows the path, heading north and exploring the deep conifers of the forest.
01[13:39] <@Kyo-DM> ((Any complaints or votes nay? ))
[13:39] <+Melkor> ((I'm cool.))
[13:39] <+Envidi> (( Fine with it. ))
[13:39] <+Dren> (I'm fine either way)
[13:40] <+Erli> (( *can put it off, if everyone would rather forge ahead* ))
[13:41] <+Melkor> (Nearly three hours for one fight and some plot.))
[13:41] <+Melkor> ((Not bored at all thought. I like this.))
[13:41] <+Envidi> (( It's fun. ))
[13:41] <+Dren> (Heh. Yup)
[13:41] <+Dren> (And the dice hate us )
[13:42] <+Melkor> (quite)
[13:42] <+Erli> (( Indeed. ))
01[13:42] <@Kyo-DM> (( 20 minute break unless we need an extension then. ))
[13:42] <+Melkor> ((Alright.))
[13:43] <+Erli> ((Mm-kay.))
[13:43] <+Melkor> ((Go and eat something Luthorne, we'll wait.))
[13:43] <+Dren> (Righto)
[13:44] <+Melkor> ((In the meantime, let us try to court Lady Luck(or the closest equivalent thereof) to our side.))
[13:44] <@theOtherDM> (( FWIW, there'll likely be another one(or possibly two/three)-shot next weekend. Still hammering out the details. ))
03[13:45] * Kyo-DM changes topic to 'Sunday One Shot -- Theme: Horror and Zombies -- GMs: Kyonko and theM -- Players: Hardcore Heathen, Delta, Luthorne, Pale Wolf, and Ellf -- http://locke-watcher.110mb.com/Sunday.html '
[13:45] <+Melkor> ((Cool. I'm still gonna try to join the OpenRPG session.))
[13:45] <+Melkor> ((I will need some stats rolls, but I fear asking them now, as the Dice hate us))
01[13:47] <@Kyo-DM> (( ^__^ They hate you, love me. ))
01[13:47] <@Kyo-DM> (( By the way, should I post the RP on TFF, BYTM, Ellf's forum, or Fukufics? ))
[13:48] <+Dren> (No reason why not all of 'em )
[11:24] <+Erli> Like the Mark of Cain?
06[11:25] * +Envidi counts 5 players.
01[11:25] <@Kyo-DM> Eva is the dicebot.
[11:25] <+Envidi> Kay.
[11:25] <Zombine_Zero> (And a resident pet combine zombie.
)01[11:25] <@Kyo-DM> You arrived in this area, suddenly via magical portal from some wizard likely just playing around with his or her newly gained arcane powers over the void. The landing wasn't really painful, but it was jarring. Getting up, all you see is forest and road beyond the clearing you landed in.
01[11:25] <@Kyo-DM> Getting your bearings together, you all walk towards the road and hope it leads to civilization.
01[11:25] <@Kyo-DM> The road was nothing more then packed dirt, packed dung, and if you look closely, buried bone and stone. A road that many people from tamed and civilized lands won't dream of stepping on, but who says that you were in a tamed land.
06[11:28] * +Erli reflects that the quality of the roads remind him of home...and why he left.
-
06[11:28] * +Melkor looks for signs of civilization in the distance.
06[11:28] * +Envidi winces at the poor state of the area. 'How the mighty have fallen,' she thinks to herself, carefully stepping to avoid the dung.
-
06[11:29] * +Dren twitches (again). "Have I commented on overexciteable bookworms yet? I was busy."
06[11:29] * +Envidi looks askance at Dren at takes a careful step away.
-
-
06[11:30] * +Erli just keeps an eye out for trouble, and wonders why in all the hells he got stuck with this lot.
06[11:31] * +Melkor looks around for anything interesting, and keeps his peace.
06[11:32] * +Envidi sighs, and caves to the awkward silence. "Does anyone know where we are?"
01[11:32] <@Kyo-DM> The forest is surprisingly think, the conifers block your view of anything but the road and the clearing you landed it.
01[11:33] <@Kyo-DM> *thick
[11:33] <+Dren> "Some backwoods shithole."
06[11:33] * +Melkor remarks " Tis a most somber and foreboding place. It's like my bones are chilled by the very air"
[11:34] <+Dren> "Though, that's just a guess. Maybe there's a sign up indicating which backwoods shithole."
[11:34] <+Erli> "No idea," the dwarf says gruffly. "Though that doesn't say much, there's a lot of areas with little to no development around..."
06[11:34] * +Erli should know. He came from several of them.
[11:35] <+Melkor> "Mayhap, but a path indicates some form of civilization. Continuing on this path will lead us to it. And thus, some answers"
06[11:35] * +Envidi ponders. Two somewhat agreeable, if not very helpful, people, and one irritating fool.
01[11:36] <@Kyo-DM> The air is slightly heavy with moisture, a thin bank of fog quickly rolls in and dissappears.
[11:36] <+Erli> "Probably. Might be something nasty in the area, though, so we should probably keep an eye out."
[11:36] <+Melkor> "Indeed."
06[11:37] * +Dren nods.
06[11:37] * +Erli shrugs, activating his Senses aura, and starts down the path.
[11:37] <+Erli> "No point delaying."
06[11:37] * +Melkor follows with a nod.
06[11:37] * @Kyo-DM noms OoC on he that brings up Aura Sensing.
[11:38] <+Erli> (( Hrmm? ))
[11:38] <+Erli> (( Ah. PM. ))
01[11:38] <@Kyo-DM> (( Check your queries. ))
01[11:40] <@Kyo-DM> As you travel down the road, you begin to hear the excitable howl of coyotes.
[11:40] <+Melkor> "Wild beasts."
06[11:40] * +Dren just sighs. "Great. Just wonderful."
06[11:40] * +Melkor draws his sword.
[11:40] <+Erli> "I'm more concerned about what has them stirred up," the dwarf notes.
[11:41] <+Dren> "Food? Translation, us?"
06[11:41] * +Erli has had his axe out for awhile.
[11:41] <+Melkor> "Then there is no point in not being prepared for trouble."
06[11:41] * +Melkor checks his shield's straps.
06[11:42] * +Dren sighs again and pulls a bow from his back, nocking an arrow.
[11:42] <+Erli> "Perhaps. Hard to say. Could be something else giving them trouble...them running into something nastier." He shrugs again. "We'll find out soon enough, if we're not careful."
02[11:42] * +Envidi (~heathen09@74-137-96-177.dhcp.insightbb.com) Quit (Ping timeout)
[11:43] <+Melkor> "Indeed."
01[11:43] <@Kyo-DM> A different howl is heard this time, in another direction from where the coyotes' howls came from.
[11:44] <+Melkor> "Correct me if I'm wrong. That was not any beast I know of."
06[11:44] * +Dren sweatdrops. "More fun."
[11:45] <+Melkor> "Hardly"
01[11:45] <@Kyo-DM> Howling. As you take your next step forward, a sudden howl goes up to the southeast of you. As each of you react, a small group of wolf like creatures step out of the forest, onto the road. Looking at each of you as if you were filet mignon.
[11:45] <+Dren> "See, that was what some people in the city call 'sarcasm'."
06[11:45] * +Erli shrugs. "Hard to tell from here...but eh. With luck, we won't be finding out. Sadly, I don't hold too much faith in luck."
06[11:46] * +Melkor brightens up, ignoring Erli's reply.
[11:46] <+Erli> "...for obvious reasons."
[11:46] <+Erli> (( Roll initiative? ))
01[11:46] <@Kyo-DM> Yep.
06[11:46] * +Dren nods. "Clearly."
[11:46] <+Melkor> "At last, a challange." he says, "Thought they be but beasts."

[12:25] <+Envidi> (( Wait a sec. Doesn't Erli have an aura on that gives us Dr 1/- ?

[12:26] <+Erli> ((It only absorbs one point of damage. << ))
01[12:26] <@Kyo-DM> Physical attacks.
[12:26] <+Envidi> (( Kay. ))
06[12:26] * +Erli attacks a nearby wolf, preferably one that looks injured, since his player is totally confused as to what is where.

[12:29] <+Melkor> ((i miss and cut my head off?))

)01[12:30] <@Kyo-DM> Dren's turn.
06[12:30] * +Dren reaches down to his waist and lays a hand on a wand, then reaches out with his left hand, crackling with electricity. Yes, he does have a slightly maniacal grin. "Bite me, will you?"
[12:30] <+Melkor> ((So 'Im already dead?))
[12:30] <+Dren> 1d20+7 touch attack on the one that hit me (W1?)
[12:30] <+Evangeline> Dren, touch attack on the one that hit me (W1?): 26 [1d20=19]

[12:31] <+Dren> (... Though the damage roll sucked...)
[12:31] <+Erli> (( T_T ))

01[12:31] <@Kyo-DM> Envidi's turn.
[12:31] <+Melkor> ((Oh thank the DM))
06[12:32] * +Envidi frowns as the familiar fog of battle descends, making everything harder to think of, too many things to notice. But blood, blood was red. Bright, in the gloomy setting. And it drew the eye. She layed about with the sword, striking the closest wounded wolf.
06[12:32] * +Dren flicks his fingers, and brings the rapier back up.
[12:32] <+Envidi> 1d20+8
[12:32] <+Evangeline> Envidi, 1d20+8: 22 [1d20=14]

[12:36] <+Envidi> (( I'll do it. I know he was near me, seeing as I made em flee. ))
[12:36] <+Envidi> (( That was the one I hit, right? ))
01[12:36] <@Kyo-DM> W4 was the one attacking you and limping away from you.
06[12:38] * +Envidi grins at the impact that runs up her arm. The grin widens when the worg flees. 'Where do you think *you're* going?' She leveled another swing at its retreating back.
[12:38] <+Envidi> 1d20+8
[12:38] <+Evangeline> Envidi, 1d20+8: 16 [1d20=8]
01[12:38] <@Kyo-DM> Otherwise, Erli's turn. And Envidi's attack misses.
[12:38] <+Melkor> ((so 17 or higher to hit them))
06[12:39] * +Envidi 's eyes narrow as the worg puts on an extra burst of speed, and her sword caught only air.
06[12:39] * +Erli grumbles to himself as he attacks yet another wolf-like creature.
[12:39] <+Erli> 1d20+6
[12:39] <+Evangeline> Erli, 1d20+6: 17 [1d20=11]

01[12:41] <@Kyo-DM> All of them...
01[12:41] <@Kyo-DM> But the retreater.
[12:41] <+Erli> ((Then one of the injured ones. ))
[12:42] <+Erli> (( *has been spoiled by OpenRPG's maps* ))
[12:42] <+Dren> (I know... MapTool's so handy.)

01[12:43] <@Kyo-DM> W3 tries to retreat.
[12:44] <+Envidi> (( Does that provoke an AoO from me? ))
01[12:44] <@Kyo-DM> (( And we get it, we use Maptools or OpenRPG for map next time or something. ^^;;
[12:44] <+Erli> (( Or any of us? >> ))
01[12:44] <@Kyo-DM> (( If you hit. ))
06[12:44] * +Melkor notices and shouts "How dare you retreat!" while swinging his sword at it.
[12:45] <+Erli> (( *is vaguely afraid to use his breath weapon without knowing who else is in the way* ))
06[12:45] * +Envidi sees another wolf attempting to flee. She roars in draconic and lets loose a powerful blow.
[12:45] <+Melkor> ((it was attacking me, and the area around me is dangerous terrain due to Bulwark of Defense.))
[12:45] <+Envidi> 1d20+6

01[12:47] <@Kyo-DM> This missed though.
01[12:47] <@Kyo-DM> W3 continues to retreat.
01[12:47] <@Kyo-DM> Melkor's turn.
01[12:48] <@Kyo-DM> W2 and W4, are still with the group.
01[12:48] <@Kyo-DM> Wait...
06[12:48] * +Melkor pursues the wolf, and strikes again, cursing against his foul luck.
01[12:49] <@Kyo-DM> Yep.
[12:49] <+Melkor> (?)
01[12:49] <@Kyo-DM> W2 and W4 are sitll with the group.
[12:49] <+Melkor> (I roll?)

[12:49] <+Melkor> (Damn)
01[12:49] <@Kyo-DM> Dren's turn.
06[12:50] * +Dren ducks around behind W2, boxing it in between himself and (whoever's taking this one on) and making a single quick thrust.
[12:50] <+Dren> 1d20+7
[12:50] <+Evangeline> Dren, 1d20+7: 13 [1d20=6]
[12:50] <+Dren> (Even with the +2 for flanking, miss. Bah.)
01[12:51] <@Kyo-DM> Envidi's turn!
06[12:51] * +Envidi turns from the runners and assists Dren with one of the remaining wolves. A moment's pause to aim, followed by a quick slash.
[12:51] <+Envidi> 1d20+10
[12:51] <+Evangeline> Envidi, 1d20+10: 11 [1d20=1]
[12:52] <+Dren> (At least we're not using 'utter fumble' rules, or you might've assisted one of the remaining wolves with Dren...)
01[12:52] <@Kyo-DM> W2 and W4 both try to retreat now.
[12:53] <+Melkor> (AoO?)
01[12:53] <@Kyo-DM> If anyones wants to try.
06[12:53] * +Envidi 's swing goes way wide, and she has to adjust the blow to avoid hitting one of her companions. She spins completely around, looking rather foolish, and when she can see the wolves again, they're attempting to flee. She follows after, attempting to salvage some of her dignity by bloodying her blade. (( Attacking whichever is more wounded/won't provoke AoO ))
[12:54] <+Dren> 1d20+7+2 AoO W2

[12:54] <+Evangeline> Envidi, 2d6+4: 10 [2d6=5,1]
06[12:54] * +Dren lances out again as the wolf tries to squeeze past, and skewers it, before pulling the blade out.
03[12:55] * Kyo-DM changes topic to 'Sunday One Shot -- Init Order: Erli, W3, Melkor, Dren, and Envidi'
[12:55] <+Erli> ((How far away is Wolf 3? ))
[12:55] <+Envidi> (( And how far is it moving each round? ))
01[12:55] <@Kyo-DM> Injured wolf, at least 40 feet away.
06[12:56] * +Erli pursues after the wolf in question, the dwarf's lungs inflating, and from about ten feet away, unleashes a thirty foot line of acid as a breath weapon.
[12:57] <+Erli> ((I think breath weapons automatically hit people in the square in question, right? >> They just roll to take less damage?))
[12:57] <+Melkor> (I'm near that wolf, you know. )
01[12:57] <@Kyo-DM> Roll? DC?
[12:57] <+Envidi> (( He ran past you ))

[12:59] <+Melkor> (nah)
06[12:59] * +Melkor turns to Erli
06[13:00] * +Envidi 's eyes widen when the dwarf spews the line of acid. "By Kord," she murmurs in Draconic.
06[13:00] * +Dren looks rather disgusted, pulling out a cloth and wiping the blood off his blade. "Annoying little buggers."
01[13:00] <@Kyo-DM> 4 dead wolves, and some injuries inflicted against you.
[13:00] <+Melkor> "Not that I mind the help, unexpected as it was, but please warn me next time. I almost got sprayed."
06[13:01] * +Envidi ignores the whining.
[13:01] <+Envidi> "Injuries?"
06[13:01] * +Erli mostly ignores the various reactions, and cleans off his axe. "Needed my breath for other things, at the time."
[13:01] <+Melkor> "That said, mayhap we shall tend to our wounds... And introduce our more... special abilities?"
06[13:01] * +Dren rubs his arm. "Yes. I hope the damn thing isn't infected, I doubt those things know word one about hygiene."
[13:02] <+Erli> "I've been knocked about a bit, nothing too bad," the dwarf says in response to Envidi's query.
06[13:02] * +Dren puts his rapier back in the sheath.
[13:02] <+Melkor> "I'm perfectly find. The beast could not harm me."
[13:02] <+Melkor> (fine*)
[13:03] <+Envidi> (( HP current / HP total please. We've got wands of Leser Vigor and draconic healing if you're below half. ))

01[13:03] <@Kyo-DM> (( Be back in a few minutes, going to put a pizza in the oven. ))
06[13:03] * +Melkor cleans the blood off his blade and sheaths it. (64/64)
[13:04] <+Erli> 54/71
[13:04] <+Melkor> (RP time?)
[13:04] <@theOtherDM> (( Dren not gestalted? ))
[13:04] <+Erli> ((Dren's a sorcerer/rogue, innit he?))
[13:04] <+Melkor> (God knows I'm not. I'm already rushing to catch up.)
[13:05] <+Dren> (Yes, my HIGH HP class has d6es
)06[13:06] * +Envidi pulls forth a wand of lesser vigor and uses it on herself, Erli, and Dren. ((You all gain 11 health))
[13:06] <@theOtherDM> (( Anyway, yes. Roleplay time. You've got a road... of sorts... to walk down should you need something to do ))
[13:06] <+Envidi> "Is anyone trained in the magic of a Cleric?"
06[13:07] * +Melkor walks to one of the less damaged wolves and kneels down to examine it.
[13:07] <+Envidi> (( Nobody else can use cleric stuffs? Huh. Oh well. 97 charges left. ))
[13:07] <+Erli> "Not I." The dwarf examines his enchanted axe carefully. "I've little interest in such."
[13:07] <+Melkor> "I'm in no way trained to recognize beasts beyond mere appearence, but this does seems... not right."
06[13:07] * +Dren sighs as the wound heals. "Thanks. And no, not my thing."
[13:08] <+Melkor> "And no. I'm but a knight.
[13:08] <+Erli> ))I thought you were a knight/cleric? >> ))
[13:08] <+Erli> *((
[13:08] <+Melkor> (As said yesterday, to much headache)
[13:09] <+Erli> ((*must not have been around for that*))
[13:09] <+Melkor> (I'm already rushing to follow)
06[13:09] * +Envidi nods. "I, am a Trumpet Archon of Kord, God of Strength."
[13:09] <+Erli> ((Well, you're probably really screwed, then, as the only non-gestalt character in an RP with threats geared against gestalt characters.))
[13:10] <+Melkor> (Oh, I know)
[13:10] <+Dren> "Useful. Don't suppose he's listening enough to pick everyone up and send them home?"
[13:10] <+Melkor> ( But I want to get used to dying. Don't want to get frustrated over such things)
01[13:11] <@Kyo-DM> (( Get use to dying? Its something to get use to? ))
[13:11] <+Melkor> "Gods do not oft interfere in the realm of mortals. Unfortunately for us.
[13:11] <+Melkor> ((It happens. And this is a One Shot anyhow.))
[13:11] <+Erli> "Mmph. I'm a warrior from a horrible little place that got overrun awhile back. Good ale, though."
06[13:12] * +Erli shrugs to himself, apparently satisfied that his axe is in reasonable condition.
[13:12] <+Dren> "Acquisitions specialist from a decent city."
06[13:12] * +Melkor frowns.
06[13:12] * +Envidi smirks. "I wouldn't be surprised if Kord were to blame for all of this. Teleported to a savage land, nearly immediately set upon by foul monsters? It's something we followers enjoy."
06[13:13] * +Erli chuckles darkly to himself.
[13:13] <+Melkor> "Then your god is more then foolish. There is no honor in pointless battle."
[13:14] <+Erli> "Well, regardless of why we're here, we're here," the dwarf says. "Best deal with it as we can, unless one of you has a handy way of returning us to our origins."
06[13:14] * +Envidi shrugs. "The honor is not in battle. It is in testing oneself...but to each his own."
[13:14] <+Erli> "I, on the other hand, do not."
[13:14] <+Envidi> (( I actually could have brought a scroll that would do that. ))
[13:15] <+Erli> ((I suspect it would have been destroyed by a terrible, tragic, DM-mandated incident.
))[13:15] <+Dren> "Eh, follow the road, find what passes for civilization out here, presuming it hasn't been eaten by wolves."
[13:15] <+Melkor> "Yes, to each is own. Shall we continue on this path? We would best not tarry, for the blood of these beasts will certainly draw more."
[13:17] <+Erli> "Indeed. Find out where we are, and how far away from where we used to be it is..." the dwarf shrugs. "Good enough notion as for now." He switches his aura back to Senses.
[13:17] <+Erli> "Just keep an eye out for whatever other...challenges...await us."
06[13:17] * +Envidi glances to the road.
01[13:17] <@Kyo-DM> The coyetes howl out again.
[13:17] <+Dren> "Them?"
06[13:17] * +Melkor looks at his companions.
[13:18] <+Erli> "Amongst other things, potentially..."
[13:18] <+Envidi> "To a man without a destination, any direction is the correct path." *she takes note of the howl* "And away from the wolves is probably the best choice."
[13:18] <+Melkor> "Let us go. I will go to the front."
[13:18] <+Envidi> "I'll bring up the rear."
06[13:18] * +Dren nods. "I'll leave that to you."
06[13:19] * +Erli shrugs. "I don't care, as long as we just get going."
06[13:19] * +Melkor starts walking.
[13:19] <+Melkor> "Do follow."
06[13:19] * +Dren does so.
06[13:19] * +Erli raises an eyebrow, but also starts moving down the path.
06[13:20] * +Envidi takes place at the back of the party, keeping a wary eye on the surroundings.
[13:20] <+Melkor> "These wolves..."
[13:21] <+Dren> "Not normal, mm?"
[13:21] <+Melkor> "In all my hunts with my father and brothers, never we encountered wolves that acted like this."
01[13:21] <@Kyo-DM> As you walk down the road, you all begin to notice that ahead is a junction. An unmarked path overrun with wild grass.
[13:21] <+Melkor> "Three paths."
[13:21] <+Envidi> "Normal wolves avoid groups of people. And when they don't, they die easier."
[13:21] <+Melkor> "Aye"
[13:22] <+Dren> "I say the decent road's more likely to bring us to some manner of civilization."
[13:22] <+Melkor> "I am... concerned."
[13:22] <+Erli> "Hmph. There are many different creatures in other lands." The dwarf doesn't seem concerned, and examines the paths for anything of interest.
01[13:23] <@Kyo-DM> The overgrown path has markings of small foot prints going to and from it.
[13:23] <+Dren> "That's true, but wolves that aggressive and fast would make it difficult to actually build this road... Suggests they're not natural to the area."
06[13:24] * +Melkor kneels next to the tracks.
06[13:24] * +Envidi nods. "A good point."
[13:24] <+Erli> "Depends who...or what...built it." The dwarf ponders, examining the tracks.
[13:24] <+Melkor> "What manner of beast could have made these tracks?"
[13:24] <+Melkor> "If only one of my father's trackers were here..."
01[13:25] <@Kyo-DM> The prints are larger then a wolf's paw, and similiar in design to your own foot prints. Just far smaller.
[13:25] <+Envidi> "Werewolves?"
06[13:25] * +Dren takes a look at the tracks. "I say we find out where we are, we can resolve the mystery of the local wildlife later if at all."
06[13:26] * +Erli vaguely considers smacking Melkor in the back of the head. "Hmm. Fay, perhaps? Seems too large for halflings or gnomes...I think."
[13:26] <+Melkor> "Humanoid, certainly."
[13:27] <+Melkor> "More likely a dwarf then a fay. The Fair Folk are slight and small creatures, according to legends."
[13:28] <+Envidi> "But that doesn't answer the question of which path to take."
06[13:28] * +Erli eyes Melkor with a rather cynical expression. "I think I would recognize the tracks of a dwarf. And fay come in many different packages."
[13:28] <+Dren> "More importantly, how old are the tracks? If this is less than a few hours old, we might as well follow them, otherwise a real road's more likely to get us to a village or whatever."
[13:29] <+Melkor> "One is covered in grass, yet shows signs of use. What of the other path, Dren?"
01[13:29] <@Kyo-DM> (( Anyone with tracking skills? ^^ ))
[13:29] <+Melkor> "I shall defer to your superior experience, Erli."
[13:30] <+Dren> (Search is the closest I've got
)[13:30] <+Melkor> ((Nope, like stated by my character, no Tracking skill))
[13:30] <+Erli> ((Searching, yeah. =X ))
[13:30] <+Dren> (I'm presuming the other path is the road we've been following)
[13:30] <+Melkor> (yes)
[13:32] <+Melkor> "Erli, could these be children's tracks? Human children?"
06[13:32] * +Erli examines the tracks more closely.
[13:33] <+Erli> ((Search check? >> ))
01[13:33] <@Kyo-DM> (( OoC Knowledge: Follow the tracks, you head straight north and towards the plot. Continue down the road, you find civilization. Follow the road up, and you head deeper into wilderness))
01[13:33] <@Kyo-DM> Yes, please.
[13:33] <+Dren> 1d20+8 want me to Search?
[13:33] <+Dren> (*locke69áblinks)
[13:33] <+Evangeline> Dren, want me to Search?: 19 [1d20=11]
[13:33] <+Erli> 1d20+6
[13:33] <+Evangeline> Erli, 1d20+6: 19 [1d20=13]
[13:34] <+Dren> (Heh)
01[13:34] <@Kyo-DM> Children's tracks, yes.
01[13:34] <@Kyo-DM> They look semi-recent.
[13:34] <+Erli> "Huh. You're right, I think. Though what the blazes human children are doing out here...I have no idea. Not too far in the past, either, I think..."
06[13:35] * +Dren tsks, standing up. "Dammit... doesn't sit right leaving kids out here."
[13:35] <+Melkor> "As a knight, I should investigate."
06[13:35] * +Dren stretches slightly, and starts down the path after the tracks.
[13:35] <+Melkor> "But whatever brought them here..."
01[13:35] <@Kyo-DM> (( Wee, OoC knowledge really does help. ))
[13:36] <+Melkor> "We should find where they came from first."
[13:36] <+Erli> "Hnh." Erli watches as Dren heads down the path. "Looks like someone's made up his mind."
[13:36] <+Melkor> "Oh..."
06[13:37] * +Erli the dwarf shrugs, and follows Dren. "Might as well try and keep him out of trouble, I suppose."
[13:37] <+Dren> "We can find where they came from after we've taken some effort to make sure they don't get eaten."
06[13:37] * +Envidi sighs. What would Kord do?
[13:37] <+Envidi> "I'm coming too."
06[13:37] * +Melkor looks embarrassed to have been preceded in a honorful path by a thief, and promptly follows.
[13:39] <+Erli> (( Hmm. Take a break for lunch or something before getting deeper into plot? ))
[13:39] <+Erli> (( *ish hungry* ))
01[13:39] <@Kyo-DM> The party follows the path, heading north and exploring the deep conifers of the forest.
01[13:39] <@Kyo-DM> ((Any complaints or votes nay? ))
[13:39] <+Melkor> ((I'm cool.))
[13:39] <+Envidi> (( Fine with it. ))
[13:39] <+Dren> (I'm fine either way)
[13:40] <+Erli> (( *can put it off, if everyone would rather forge ahead* ))
[13:41] <+Melkor> (Nearly three hours for one fight and some plot.))
[13:41] <+Melkor> ((Not bored at all thought. I like this.))
[13:41] <+Envidi> (( It's fun. ))
[13:41] <+Dren> (Heh. Yup)
[13:41] <+Dren> (And the dice hate us
)[13:42] <+Melkor> (quite)
[13:42] <+Erli> (( Indeed. ))
01[13:42] <@Kyo-DM> (( 20 minute break unless we need an extension then. ))
[13:42] <+Melkor> ((Alright.))
[13:43] <+Erli> ((Mm-kay.))
[13:43] <+Melkor> ((Go and eat something Luthorne, we'll wait.))
[13:43] <+Dren> (Righto)
[13:44] <+Melkor> ((In the meantime, let us try to court Lady Luck(or the closest equivalent thereof) to our side.))
[13:44] <@theOtherDM> (( FWIW, there'll likely be another one(or possibly two/three)-shot next weekend. Still hammering out the details.

[13:45] <+Melkor> ((Cool. I'm still gonna try to join the OpenRPG session.))
[13:45] <+Melkor> ((I will need some stats rolls, but I fear asking them now, as the Dice hate us))
01[13:47] <@Kyo-DM> (( ^__^ They hate you, love me. ))
01[13:47] <@Kyo-DM> (( By the way, should I post the RP on TFF, BYTM, Ellf's forum, or Fukufics? ))
[13:48] <+Dren> (No reason why not all of 'em
