Topic: Age of Worms Main thread Subject: next up...
Aldaris watches and awaits to see if anyone does anything regarding the empty room that has appeared. Should they not, he informs everyone of his desire to move the dais one more position to see what happens.

Topic: Forgotten Realms: The Unsung Heroes Subject: Extra crispy or flame broiled?
So it was that not so very far away, completely unawares of the goings on of a man who had shared a courtyard with them but that morning, companions of a different nature were locked in a hearted battle. The bridge had become a battlefield, and lives were now at stake. Aelistae and Barrbarra had taken up bows, with arrows notched and ready to let fly at a moment’s notice. Kas was putting her armor to the test as it ground against the wooden bridge as she fought of her attackers, with Loriel and Moonshadow, alongside Moira had entered into closer proximity to aid the wounded woman. Linnix and Bart, were coping with the added threat of two crossbowman on the other side of the river, while Xaris was fending off trouble of his own. Only Elesia seemed distanced from the battle, but anyone looking closely enough could see she too was locked in concentration, for her will alone kept the woman known as Kas from the verge of death.
Preferring to take their chances with enemies not locked in melee with their companions, both Bartholomew and Linnix took up aim at the sentries furthest away from the clamor on the bridge. With two silent clicks, lost in the sound of combat, the bolts were let loose. Bart’s shot went ridiculously wide, ending the life of a poor unfortunate sparrow flying by minding its own business. Linnix’s however was something of beauty. The bolt slid down the chamber like a sword into a custom scabbard, the bolt parted the air like a king did the masses, and that bolt whistled the sweetest song of death ever heard, before landing betwixt the eyes of a very startled enemy, who was thrown onto his back, dead, before he ever touched ground.
(Well now, rolled a double 20 for the critical, and a 98% on my crit chart well done)
Sentry1
Kas raised up to face the man who had struck her down. He wanted to lash out at her, to give her another beating, but Loriel had his attention now, and he couldn’t afford to spare it to the rising warrior. Ill fortune for him it was for it allowed Kas to strike at him, driving her blade deep into his side, causing him to lower his guard long enough in painful reflections for Loriel to move in and strike him as well. Her fine blade opened his shoulder, weakening his grip upon his Morningstar. Distracted between the two women, and terrorized by the bloody gurgling of his companion who now thrashed like a rag doll in the powerful jaws of Moonshadow, the sentry gave a frantic swing at Loriel, but received nothing but air and pain for his time.
Xaris was busy fending off both of the sentries on the southwestern side of the bridge, his gnomish great sword weaving in deceptively swift movements against his attackers. The men however were not as unskilled as the confident gnome had originally thought either. While flanking the warrior, they attacked him simultaneously, one striking high, the other low, and from opposing angles. Both of the short blades bypassed Xaris’ defense, and both bit into his tender flesh, one under his left armpit, the other up and into his right side thankfully deflected by his ribs. (Xaris 51/60HP) The gnome however was not to be denied his vengeance, and with great finesse brought that great sword down upon Sentry 5 with a world of pain alongside it. The strength of his blow was nearly enough to sever his sword arm, and the limb hung loosely by what few tendons remained, his fingers involuntarily releasing the grip on his blade. (That’s another critical for the good guys!)
Aelistae, finding a target free let fly her arrow, which sank cleanly into the already wounded, and now weaponless sentry, piercing his shoulder from the rear, and dropping the man into dirt.
Barrbarra too knew well her shot, and with unerring accuracy placed an arrow right over Loriel’s left shoulder to strike the Morningstar wielding sentry down, the body falling over the side of the bridge and into the once peaceful waters below.
Seeing their numbers cut down so quickly, the two remaining enemies changed their battle plans rather quickly. Sentry2 gave up and made a direct run at all haste towards the north. (Full movement, 150ft (run feat)) Sentry 6 however took a step back, away from Xaris and his wicked blade, instead reaching into his cloak ripping from his neck a now broken string with 2 small red beads upon it. With some speechless garble he threw the necklace at his feet, and the beads exploded into fireballs which encompassed not only himself, but everyone except for Bart, Linnix, Barrbarra Elesia and their steeds as well in deadly flames.
Fireballs: DC to beat: 14 Damage at stake: 26
Aelistae 17 Xaris 6 Loriel 20 Kas 15 Moonshadow: 14 Moira 21.
In that split second before the flames washed over them, one must ponder what went through their minds. Aelistae quickly turned and rolled, avoiding much of the flames, though they still licked at her flesh. Moonshadow, Kas, Loriel, and Moira all dove for the water on instinct, but when they hit bottom, no cool embrace welcomed them, only hardened earth, as the illusion of a bridge, river, and crossing all faded into reality. The flames washed over Xaris, and the bodies of the fallen foes famished and seeking sustenance upon their lives.
When the smoke had cleared, much of the attackers remains were smoldering, scorched beyond recognition, and blackened stains upon the earth. And there, amongst it all, stood Xaris, who’se hair tips smoldered like a tallow candle, and whose first reply to the ordeal was to simply puff out a ring of smoke to clear his lungs. The gnome’s gear all sustained burn damage, but luckily nothing had been totally ruined. The little fellow though for all his obvious agony, was alive, and still standing of his own accord.
Kas however was another story. The battle injuries coupled with the flames had pushed her body beyond even Elesia’s grasp of maintaining conciousness. The woman’s body lay still amongst the other’s in the middle of the road. Elesia was still locked deep in concentration now, her spell no longer keeping her capable of fighting, but the only thing that was keeping her alive. Sweat rolled off the priestesses face as well, the task of keeping the spell active was taking it’s toll on her. With obvious urgency and added struggle in her voice however she did manage two quick words as she slowly walked by Aelistae. “She‘s dying”
HP: totals:
Kas -5/30 (Elesia’s spell is keeping her at -5 instead of -13)
Aelistae 17/30
Xaris 25/60
Loriel 26/39
Moonshadow: 20/33
Moira: 17/30
(Sentry 2 is at 150ft and fleeing fast, Kas is bleeding out, everyone is pretty rough looking, and the actions are yours to make. Thanks for being patient.)

Topic: Forgotten Realms: The Unsung Heroes Subject: Attack, of the low cal fat free salad, new at mcdonalds.
Nebulos was in quite the predicament. He could feel the acidic fluids within the bell sprout eating away at his skin, as though someone were boiling the flesh from his bones. Through gritted teeth and fierce determination however the old mage was able to sputter out enough semblances of an incantation amidst his struggle to send forth a small ring of fire about his person. The wave of flame burned brightly, licking at the vegetation, consuming it with hunger, and soon the vines and lashing arms were aflame, the bell sprouts burning and enflaming each other in their painful trip to wilted destruction. As the bell sprout that had consumed Nebulos released him and his face was revealed, the once stoic and proud looking warmage now left much for wanting in the looks department. His entire head was a bright red, like he flesh of a freshly cooked tomato, free of blemish or hair, and the old, now very bald mages skin wrinkled as though he had sat in a tub for too long. Every breeze made his face twinge in pain. Selena to her credit turned away, looking intently at the pile of smoldering plantlife before her. Whip however couldn’t contain his delight in his companions embarrassment and let out a hearty laugh at Nebulos’ expense. “I once burned off me eyebrows playin with fire, but ne’er have I heard of a salad getting revenge Ar ar ar hehe hehe!”
Scarlet bent low and reached into a pile of blackened refuse, and pulled forth a worn and severely desiccated remnant of what once was likely a fine earring. Platinum to be sure, though much of it’s value had been lost.
The path continues back to the fork, or continues on along a similarly lush and beautiful path. Twenty yards up ahead however, the path seems to veer off sharply to the right where colorful illuminations can be seen filtering out of the pathway along the trees.

Topic: ~*Whom Gods Annoy*~ Subject: Along came a kitty
The ship rocked and swayed beneath Katriana’s bare feet, but the agile feline simply swayed in time with the creaking boards beneath her padded feet. The enemy vessel had reared its crude flag denoting piracy, and as it neared, her inner spark of good and justice went off like a silent alarm. Her fur began to stand on end and her nose twitched involuntarily. “This vessel reeks of foulness.” As soon as the vessel had come within 10 feet of their own, Katriana pushed off of the wall of the captain’s quarter’s sending herself into a running charge. With a quick step atop the rail she bent low and pounced across the distance between the two ships, tucking her legs in and landing on all fours continuing in a charge towards a specific target. The worldly feline had encountered pirates before, and though their guise made it hard to distinguish a leader amongst them, she aimed towards the one who seemed most out of place. One with more stature in his pose as though he had seen both stateroom and auction house as well as traveling the high sees, the one whose eyes never stopped moving, though held a cold stare. Towards him she charged, and attacked with all her clawed fury in a vicious swipe.
(I had grugg roll a Skill check for me to see if I would have made the jump, or been posting about a soggy furred kitty… I succeeded so my post reflects that. Grugg I’m making the spot check as discussed, and attacking using my SNA.. You know what that is.)

Topic: The Red Dragon Arena Battlegrounds Subject: Azure's up...
Azure glances around the field... Her amber gaze falls upon Roscoe this time as she notches an arrow. "From the flow you came, and to it you shall return." With that, she attempts to send the fellow druid to the realm in which his companion ruff now dwells.

Topic: The Red Dragon Arena Battlegrounds Subject: Method to my Mayhem
Azure smiles as Midnight continues to munch on Joshua's now mutilated face. Azure wonders if is spirit is trying to shoo away the wolf in vain while looking on helplessly.
Team Basilisk> Azure Skye> Moves to G12
Thinking to add a little mayhem to the battle royal going on in the bottom half of the map, Azure casts Entangle filling squares.. (Centered at o15 -8 squares left right up down and then trimming edges for a radius grid)

Topic: ~*Whom Gods Annoy*~ Subject: Meow
Katriana Felinar was a sight to behold. As the only member of her race she had ever encountered, she spent most of her life looking for others of her kind. When the immediate search was not available, such as the time spent passing on this vessel, she spent it in quiet contemplation. Long ago had Katriana cast off the strange looks and ostracism she often received from the ignorant or the fearful. Years ago it would have bothered her, the glances and comments would have given cause for her fur to crawl, her claws to extend, and the young feline to lash out at the world who so rejected her. Fortunately, after a spell in prison, and the kindly--and timely-- arrival of a traveling paladin taking her under his custody and charge, Katriana learned to think of her uniqueness not a burden, but a blessing in disguise.
Joining the crusade against evil under the tutelage of paladin master Pious Kael, Katriana traveled across the breadth of the world delivering those who could not protect themselves from the ravages of the world. For years she traveled abroad searching outwards for her meaning while ridding the land of those of ill intent. Recently however, Katriana had felt something growing inside her that fighting under another just wasn’t quelling. Katriana had decided that to best help others, she first had to truly understand herself. To strengthen the outside, she first needed to strengthen her heart, her resolve. Thus, she had departed her dear tutor, mentor, and friend--truly her salvation--to aid others in the strange barren land of Jamara.
So here she sat in the recesses of shadow creeping out from the bowels of this ships cabin room. She was not alone, as 5 others sat or paced in waiting alongside her, each with the guise of an adventurer. Katriana’s green eyes pierced the dim light with ease, and she glanced about the others, noting their reaction to her one by one. Surely none had ever seen one such as her before, but she had come to accept that. Her tail twitched under the folds of her robes, her whiskers moved as well… something ill was on the horizon. Katriana had felt this voyage a bad omen from the onset, but the more her instincts told her danger was about, the stronger her resolve became in knowing she was headed in the right direction. For at the heart of evil was where she would test herself, and truly find her purpose.
”PIRATES SIGHTED OFF THE AFT BOW! PREPARE TO PROTECT THE SHIP!”
Katriana licked her dark lips at the call to battle. She slowly raised herself from the corner of the room, her form melding with the shadows and her black robes with ease. She moved towards the stairs that would lead topside, she flowed across the floor like a shadow cast by a candle. Up the stairs she moved with grace fluidity until the bright of day washed over her. Rounding the stairwell she moved towards the back of the ship, sticking to the wall of the bridge house or similar structure, happy to have reason to stretch her legs.

Topic: Forgotten Realms: The Unsung Heroes Subject: Nebulos being picked on by flowers
Nebulos moves quietly towards the group of bellsprouts. He leans in to check the flower atop the sprout; it is a lovely yellow blossom with pink stigmas and brown seeds. As Nebulos leans in, the flower releases a small cloud of gas in his face. the gas wafts over Nebulos and suddenly the warmage is feeling quite apathetic. The middle-aged mage felt a sudden overwhelming calming, as though everything was right in the world. He stood there in a daze even as the bellsprouts upper 'lid' opened up revealing its inside, housing a 2' deep pool of liquid. With sudden fluidity and locomotion unknown to the trio, small vines gently wrapped around Nebulos and eased him forward till he toppled over the edge of the large bellsprout, face first into the liquid, where it was quickly realized that the sweet smelling juices were the plant's means of digesting, and slowly began eating away at the poor mage's face.
(Fortitude save failed- 7 acid Acid damage)
Nebulous: 29/36hp -grappled (free of gaseous effects)
Selena and Whip noticed Nebulos' predicament and moved to intercede, but the cluster of bellsprouts had reacted to their presence. Whip found himself dodging away from a multitude of vines that reached for him, and Selena was fairing even worse, as one of the vines wrapped around her wrist and she struggled to free herself. With a concentrated effort however, she managed to send forth a small fan of flames from her fingertips, severing the vine and scorching two of the bellsprouts a little.
4 bellsprouts are in a cluster, with Nebulos being 'eaten' by BS 1
BS1 BS2
BS3 BS4
Sel Whip
