Topic: Rise of the Runelords
Subject: Prepared Feast


Before the boars are prepared the master of the hunt stand up. Holding a magic wand he speaks to the crowd The hunt has been a huge success. But only one of you has captured the Tickwood Boar. This year the identity of the boar was concealed so those who did not return with a boar because they were not convinced they had found the prize may have actually overlooked the very prize they were seeking. Many of you, however, were wise and have brought back a boar even in the midst of your obvious defeat you may have won. The wand flicks through the air and each boar glows momentarily. Finally, one boar bears a glowing mark along the side of the carcass I give you .. the Tickwood Boar! the hunt master exclaims. The prize has gone to Aldern Foxglove! Many people boo and some applaud politely. Others discuss how the hunt must have been "bought out" by Aldern's money. Nonetheless the prize is given out. Aldern gives each of the participants in the hunt a share of the prize.

After enjoying a feast of boar, the carriage is loaded. The heroes of Sandpoint will once again return to their home. Once on board the coach Aldern hands a small package to Selaro and smiles sheepishly. For you m'dear. May it cheer you up after that horrible hunt

XP
Boarhunt = 250 xp to Welbry, Myra, Grush and Ariellyn
Hunt Reward = 200 xp gold to Welbry, Myra Grush and Ariellyn
Role Playing XP = 150xp to Selaro and Taden
Extra Role Playing Xp = 300 xp to Everyone

Everyone who eats boar meat is full and will gain +1 atk and dmg the next week (7 days) from eating the enchanted tickwood boar.

Subject: Moving Into The Cave




Grakk studies the patterns on the wall. In searching the patterned bands he notices thin hollow tubes hidden within the patternwork. The strange whispers filling the hallway seem to emit from these holes. The patterned bands here do not seem to hold any significance except that this was once a beautifully crafted tomb. He moves over to the left because the patterns are more visible here and in a more complete state.

Casting light on his mace, the cleric moves over to the halfling sized pile of clothes on the floor. They are old and tattered. An old backpack lies with the clothes in the heap. Brahm tries to think back to some stories the locals have told about the whispering Cairn. (Knowledge Local Check for Brahm)

The rest of the group has moved into the cave now and look around intently. There is a small mound in the first western alcove and the wolves seemed to have rounded a corner up ahead and gone underneath some debris. Many wolf tracks in the dust show that they have traveled in here for some time.

Trillian moves deeper into the cave. As she does she reaches a corner and from around the side she sees and hears a figure.

Alms for the poor, Alms for the poor. A melodious voice calls out from the shadows of the cave.

Seated on a rock with a pewter cup on hand is a young Elven female. At a quick glance one sees shades of gold. Her skin is a pale gold, her hair is a brilliant golden blond that looks like someone dusted it with powered gold. Her eyes are intense gold right around the irises with some star-like rays shooting into the intense violet of her eye that then darkens to a deep purple ring at the edge before the whites of the eyes.

Body wise she is a little more curved then some female elves and she looks fairly strong. She is dressed in dark leathers that have a beaded quality to the surface, that are either dark gray or black. She has a pack on her back, and sits with a short spear at her side.

Good Day, Gentles, she says standing and smiling at her own joke on them, she moves with an inborn grace, I have been waiting for you.

Subject: Emerging Eyes


Green eyes emerge from around the forest. Dark shapes begin to form amongst the trees. Half a dozen figures come into view. Distinctively wolves, they come bounding through the forest holding carcasses in their mouths. Each one heading straight for the entrance of the cave. Paying little attention to the adventuring party as they bound into the cave entrance with their prizes filling their mouths. The last one, greater than the rest, approaches more slowly. His green eyes shifting back and forth among the caves new visitors. He does not hold a carcass in his mouth and his sharp dagger like teeth can be seen poking out of his closed maw. He slows down as he approaches the cave entrance looking back and forth as he continues into his home. Why he does not attack is a mystery.

*NOTE* If you still want to attack or release an action as they pass by, you may do so .. just let me know what you want to do in your next post and I i will let you know what happens and what to do next

Topic: Rise of the Runelords
Subject: Return to The Tents


Returning to the tents with a prize boar, The party arrives to celebrate at the tent town. Is their boar the winning boar? No strange markings on the side of the boar to indicate it as the Tickwood boar, so probably not. More hunting parties arrive one at a time with boars as well. Eventually all have arrived. None bear a special mark. So which boar is the winning boar? Have none claimed the prize?

Topic: Rise of the Runelords
Subject: The Hunt


Ariellyn and Welbry sneak ahead into the woods. They move quietly and swiftly and at last they see a movement in the underbrush ahead about 200 feet. It is a boar, and it is well hidden under the underbrush and apparently eating some roots. It might be the boar they are looking for.

Round 1 Synopsis:
Ariellyn finds a good climbing tree and climbs to the top. Searching for a good branch, she finds a spot that she could easily survey the area and get a shot off with an advantage. Welbry gets his bow ready loading an arrow and waiting for a good shot. Grush also slowly heads towards the boar, ready to attack. The boar, unawares, continues eating roots.

Round 2 Synopsis
Welbry's first arrow flies straight into the heart of the thicket where the Boar is eating his roots. It flies so directly that it hits the boar square in the side even though he is mostly covered by the underbrush. As the elven archer makes her way into a good vantage point she see's Welbry's arrows fly off in a blaze of glory. She wasn't quite ready, but I guess the chase is on.
The wild boar rages and charges Welbry
With fury the wild boar charges out of the underbrush. He see's only Welbry standing in the woods launching arrows at him and charges through the underbrush with a load squeal.

Round 3 Synopsis
Before the boar even reaches welbry his heart already stops beating. A number of arrows fired down into its neck stop send it careening towards Welbry in a dying heap. The boar lands just a few feet from the group. His body .. lifeless.

Praise Pelor! Agela exclaimed as the man talked. She looked down upon the man and smiled speaking in a calm voice The one who attacked you has fled. I have used the power of healing to close the wound but you still remain poisoned. Until the priest arrives it is best you lie still. The tall man here is going to move you to a bed .. ok She nodded at the half-orc to go ahead and pick up the man You are in no condition to argue. Shan is a friend. Do you know who this man was that assaulted you? We could contact the authorities directly if you do Agela stood up and gave room for the man to be moved while waiting to hear his response.

Subject: Something Comes


The sounds of the howling continue to approach closer. It now seems that they are indeed coming in from all directions. A few figures can be seen moving through the underbrush at a distance although they make little sound as they move. An occasional green glowing eye can be seen flashing deep within the forest.

Ok .. since brianna's Character is firing death arrows .. no need to continue this one. The group gets the boar and drags it off to the camp. Head on back over to the main thread and continue our story back at the tent village.

You want to take your last post though and copy it Brianna and add it to your round 1 post and then delete the second post. My goal is to have everyone just have one combat post per combat where they edit in each additional round as it comes up. Like I did with the boar.

Subject: The Cave


Stepping into the cave entrance, a faint green glow echoes off the walls inside. A whispering wind flows through the cave which sounds like a language that cannot be understood. The party stands at the cave entrance; the mysteries of the cave deeper inside and the howling madness outside.

The walls of the cave bear horizontal bands of deceptively simple geometric patterns at waist level. In places the bands reveal startling detail, but in others the walls look as though they have been hacked apart with weapons or eroded by the vigors of time. Flakes of ancient paint, brilliant purple and dull mustard hue, still cling to the walls in places, hinting at what must once have been a riot of color. A thin coat of dust covers the floor.

Just inside the darkened tomb, the hallway branches into shallow alcoves to the east and west. Here the walls bear the most significant damage. Dozens of clumsy etchings mar the beautiful ancient masonry like graffiti on a city wall. A clump of soiled cloth about the size of a halfling rests in the rounded terminus of the western alcove.

Image of the room you can see from the cave entrance

Subject: In front of the cave.


As the group stands in front of the cave entrance, they hear the howling approaching closer. The number or howls seems to have increased as well as the proximity of the howls to the group. It almost seems as if they are coming right towards them. The cave entrance seems to give off a faint green glow from within offering a small amount of light. It was already night when these friends hopped through Allustan's mirror and the stars offer little light. Only elven and dwarven eyes are able to make out the details of the surroundings with some certainty.

Subject: Clearing Up Confusion


Ok .. There is some confusion I see so I will try to clear it up .. I'm trying to get all posts directly underneath my Wild Boar Post.

You should edit in each round as we do them. So far round one should be completed and until I do my round 1 synopsis (which I will in a second) .. nobody would post round 2 unless it is something obvious you are going to spend your next round doing. and so on

Some things to fix real quick
Good Job CM. Firing that bow like an old pro!

Brianna .. You can go ahead and fire one off for round 2. You will get +2 on attacking from your high vantage point

Stryke .. We miss you bud .. What do you want to do for rounds 1-3

Laurelestra - Good Job .. thats perfect

Don't Forget Bless Gives +1 on all attack rolls

NOBODY SHOULD POST ANY COMBAT FOR THIS BATTLE BELOW THIS POST!
Everything should be edited in your existing post in rounds

Subject: Devalero's Not Afraid


Here's my response to your prompt. I hope you enjoy

Standing before the night, Devalero, mighty Paladin of Pelor, raises his greatsword high into the air. With a surge of power from his God, his sword swells into brilliance as a blue flame ignites the sharpened steel. Darkness has no place here. Stepping towards the movement in the shadows he calls out. Those who travel under the cover of night often perish under that same blanket of darkness. Reveal yourself and you may yet live. Resist me not! I am Pelor's mighty warrior and friend to the light! Appearing before him materializes a noble white steed harnessed and ready for battle. Devalero climbs into the saddle with great ease and commands his mighty winged pegasus to raise his forelegs off the ground displaying his heavenly might.

I would love to play. Just give me till the beginning of next week to make a character as I will probably be quite busy over the weekend.

The group finds themselves in the very place the picture depicted. Deep foliage surrounds them and they stand in the middle of a dense and dark forest. The area is somewhat hilly here and many hills are covered in dense vines and trees and roots. One particular hill, however seems to have a cave entrance in the side. Although the entrance is overgrown with vegetation and vines, the entrance itself can been seen. Howling can be heard off in the distance echoing from all directions as the shrill sound bounces off the hills and trees.

Last of the group to arrive, an elven rogue tumbles into the darkness behind the others, quickly surveying the scene with her eyes.

Note *I am bringing in Brianna's Character so we don't have to wait and you guys can reply to the next part. I assume she would enter in as well*

Nice to meet you Shan Agela replied with a smile. She introduced herself I am Agela. A cleric of almighty Pelor. I am at your service. This is ..

Embarrassed she continued .. well .. it's nice to meet you too friend, what was your name again?

Subject: spelling and such


As far as spelling .. on my browser it underlines the incorrect words in red as I type in the game thread. Doesn't it do this for you? Then you can right click on the word and it gives you options for the correct spelling. Doesn't yours do this .. it's easy.

And if you want to start with a combat .. that is fine with me .. but you should probably try to set up the situation a bit for us and I think your brother is right about working on the role playing ..

On a final note. Isn't it nice to have an older brother to bother you about stuff

Good. It sounds like you are all interested. He places a bag on the table. It appears to be a common cloth sack and lays down on the table apparently almost empty. His hand reaches into the bag and pulls out a small chest. In looking at the size of the chest it is feasable that the chest would be able to fit into the bags opening, but an item of such size would have caused the bag to burst. Opening the chest it reveals its contents to be a number of potions. Allustan hands two potions to each person around the table. These will definitely come in handy. One is a powerful healing potion and if you need it .. well .. lets hope you do not .. but just in case. The other is a potion is of my own design. A potion linked to this location. Drink it and you will be instantly relocated to this room. Again .. only for emergencies .. or should your quest be completed. He motions once again to the mirror on the wall and it's reflection changes once again. This time a wooded scene appears. A hilly wooded area with thick undergrowth and what appears to be a concealed cave-like entrance. The detail is remarkable. Now .. I think that is the right place Allustan said with a smile Enjoy the ride. Just look deeply into that portrait and the magic will do the rest

Subject: Moving the Injured


Agela quickly responded It's not that we can't move him .. I just think it's best not to. His wound may have healed up but he is still in no state for travel. She continued as the elf headed towards the door. I am not yet trained at the neutralization of poison. The best I could do would be to delay it for a while. And I would not be prepared until morning to do such a thing. If he is still holding on when the sun rises and Pelor shines his light once more upon us, then I will delay the effects until we can get a proper healer. If it is not too late. Make haste. You may still find a healer at this hour. And we should at least move him to a bed though Agela looked over at the rather large orcish man who had offered to move him. I think that would be nice
