Subject: Monday.
Id like to update monday with a moving on post, so if there's nothing vital to be said or done in here, I suggest over the weekend posts reflect attempts at leaving the complex.. Basically you have a 10foot square hole to get across.. or a 30 foot. wall to climb down then up to reach the exit tunnel.
That being said, I'm not gonna be around the Inn this weekend much hopefully. Taking some time away from the computer for once.. (I know it's a shock to me too) Anyways those that know how to contact me can, and I'l pop on to answer quick queries if time allows.
Enjoy.
Me.

Subject: Comfort..
With some field surgeon skills and the use of much of her Healers Kit; Aelistae manages to 'patch up' Kasenarrion. Loriel is able to bandage those wounded and generally try and aid their comfort on the road to non magical recovery.

Subject: Leaving..
it should be noted that you'll first have to find out 'how' you are going to leave, before notions of grandeur and items fog your judgement. Just because there are no monsters beating down the door this instant does not mean you're all off on a cakewalk. Fair warning.
I will however say this. Since entering the complex I have given everything you need to exit in one form or another, it's simply up to you all to determine how you'd like to use what's available to make your escape.

Subject: The Booty.
I’ll assume that everyone amidst possibly trying to heal or what not is going to search the woman, the room, the pit’s the throne yadda yadda yadda. So with some secretive rolling, I present you with the following.
The cloaked woman is carrying the following.
A bone wand
A Black and green cloak
Bracers
A dagger
A MW hand crossbow with 4 bolts
4 potions, one a foggy grey, two blue ones of different hues, and a white one.
2 scrolls
Money pouch with 147 GP, 55 silver.
The Ogre carries..
Hide armor
A Large Greataxe
A silver and gold ring on one of his tusks
A money pouch containing
2 bloodstones, and 40 gp
The pits all drop a good fifty feet before ending in small rooms, filled with disgusting liquid. Sometimes those with dark vision think they see the water--if it can be called that-- rippling of it’s own accord.
Behind two of the Tabbards, are 10’ ladders, and a hidden alcove contains two lanterns, a 50’ coil of hemp rope, and 2 oil flasks.
The Throne is massive and heavy, easily weighing over 500 lbs. the cherry wood and gold inlay houses velvet cushions and backing. After a thorough search, a hidden lever drops a panel in the side of the throne, revealing an iron strongbox. With an examining from Linnix, and a heafty kick from Xaris, who was fatigued from the efforts of the day, the lid pops open its contents displayed.
500 gp, 200 sp, 100cp
1 emerald, 2 garnets
1 Bejeweled dagger with a serpent crawling around the hilt and into the cross guard
A belt, containing the crescent moon and bloody eye symbol on the buckle. The belt is made from thick hide, with scales of dark green linked together.
There, that’s the bounty. Now it’s up to you to decide what to take, and more importantly.. How to get out of here.
(If you basically make a collective effort to just 'take it all' I'll leave it till you get outside, and not worry about who's carrying what.)

Subject: Finally... some peace of body if not of mind.
Betrayal. It hit the companions like the Tarrasque had just walked over them. They had fought hard, and bled much in the attempt to rescue a once sought mother and child, only to be deceived and endangered further by yet another cloak and dagger assailant. The woman, a mage of some standing or another cackled gleefully as Xaris’ few remaining hairs smoked from the top of his head, The enraged gnome looked almost comical with the steam rising about his ears.
Worried for the welfare of her companions, Loriel let fly two arrows in all haste at the wand wielding witch. The arrows hummed as they cut through the air still abuzz with residual electricity. The first arrow sailed directly towards the enemy woman, but at the last moment, a shimmering shield of light redirected the projectile aside. The second however, would not be deterred by some mere spell. It punctured the barrier of light, and struck the sorceress in the shoulder causing her to grunt and curse in Elvish at the ranger. (Critical Hit / spell protection -2hp)
At the same time, a cold faced Linnix had also loosed her quarrel, the tiny bolt finding it’s mark but being deflected by the woman’s protective spell. Cursing, seething, Linnix dropped her crossbow and drew her daggers, ready to spill enemy blood.
Xaris, infuriated at being roasted for the second time in the same day, threw his weapon down and charged the caster with all haste. The wee little warrior could move quite quickly for one of his size, the running in the wild had tempered his speed to a faster pace, and he barreled into the woman, but for all his anger and speed, he could not get a grip on the slippery mage. His hands seemed to slide off an invisible barrier, leaving him dangerously close to the woman’s bone wand, and evil chagrinned smile.
Aelistae, the usually calm and collected Cleric of Ellistrae felt something click deep inside. Something that pushed all the feelings of compassion and mercy aside, and let all the cunning hatred and revelry of pain astringent of her Drow heritage come to the surface. Her Courtblade gleaming in the light of the room, Aelistae charged forth, her cheeks lined with the remnants of a salty tear which had caressed her gentle ebony skin. As she engaged the woman, her blade came up and slashed the woman a grievous wound along her side, causing the woman to shriek in pain.
The woman, now showing signs of fear upon her beautifully pale face, her blue eyes shimmering with anxiety pointed her wand at Aelistae, and muttered the words of a spell. “ Rath ulu l'bryklyth uoi'notan d'Lolth xuil dos!” As the was about to finish the last syllable of her command word, an arrow whizzed over Xaris’ shoulder, so close that he could feel the air part by his ear, and pierced the hand of the sorceress, causing her to drop the wand as she howled and clutched her hand, an arrow neatly lodged through her split and bleeding appendage. Across the room, Artanis could only smile with satisfaction. (Critical Hit- called shot / spell protection -14)
(** Back to the Tangled Hells of Lloth with you! **)
The woman, could do little more than curse expletives in a jumbled variety of languages, apparently she was not accustomed to such pain.
Kasenarrion, fueled by the fires of Tyr charged forth, her spear glowering at the prospect of feeding once more. With a call to Tyr, She thrust her spear in between her companions, the tip flaring as it penetrated the woman’s magical defenses, and skewered her heart. The woman’s eyes went wide in shock, as did Kasenarrion's, as the spear drained her happily. (Another Critical Hit! -28 hp, -8hp Kas 1/3hp!) Kas could barely stand as the woman slumped over, the Warrior of Tyr letting go of the spear haft and staggering, struggling to stay upright.
At last, the battle was over, the room quiet, and the threat of imminent danger over… for now.
(Congrats at surviving the first major challenge of the game.! Search results and treasure results to come soon!)

Topic: Forgotten Realms: The Unsung Heroes
Subject: POSTED! And Dang it's long
Round 1:
They had finally found their quarry. After what had originally supposed to have been a simple cavern raid and rescue turned out to be a dive into some expansive complex rumored to be a temple to some long forgotten figure, the battered and bruised companions finally had at least part of their goal in sight; and what an ugly -not to mention massive- sight it was. The plans were set, their strategies made, the ogre would have to fall, the woman rescued. And so, battle was joined once more.
Xaris, a fire burning inside his little frame, was the first to act. Powerful legs sent his short form forward in a charge, straight towards the crude barricade and the orcs that lay beyond. With his shoulder leading the charge, Xaris plunges into a barrel, which thankfully turns out to be empty, and shatters under his great effort, sending the orc behind it sprawling, and fending off a gnomish fury atop it. Armed with only crossbows at the moment for defense, the orc can do nothing to retaliate without the risk of leaving itself vulnerable. Putting up a feeble attempt of a block with it’s crossbow, the orc is hard pressed as Xaris plunges his gnomish great sword through the arc of the crossbow and the frame, his cross guard hitting the wood stock, the only thing preventing him from skewering the orc clear through. The orc lets out a hiss of anger and pain as a great pool of blood puddles and runs from its now almost still body. (-14hp/Unconcious)
With the opening in the barricade made by Xaris in sight, Artanis quickly followed her smaller companion in a similar fashion, charging the barricade, using Xaris’ opening as a means to reach another orc with a little more ease. Reaching an Orc with ease, her bastard sword gleamed in the torchlight as it sliced neatly into orcish flesh. The orc hardly made a sound as it simply dropped it’s crossbow and prepared to succumb to death by the blade. (-10hp/Unconcious)
Loriel was hoping to end the battle with swift death to the Ogre. To bring down the leader would send the orcs scattering she surmised. With but her heartbeats as her metronome of death, she loosed two arrows. The first one was sent flying directly towards the ogres heart. The arrow was true and penetrated his thick hide armor, but the hide had slowed what might have been a kill shot just enough that the arrow barely pierced his thick skin. (Critical hit! 1’s for damage L ) (-3hp) The second arrow was true also, striking the ogre in the arm, bringing a low chuckle from the arrogant giant. (-4hp)
Linnix, her cornucopia of emotions formed into a single determination stepped up to the doorway, setting her sights on the orc nearest the left hand side of the room, where the woman lay unmoving, her eyes barely visible beneath folds of haversack. With a calmness about her, though surely the lump in her throat threatened to jump free, Linnix fired, her small hand crossbow’s bolt nicked the orc’s shoulder, drawing its attention. (-2hp)
Kasenarrion stepped into the room next, the ogre her target. She recanted the words for her Flare spell, sending the bright flash of light before the Ogre’s eyes. The Ogre swatted at the annoyance, his retinas afire with the over stimulation. (Dazzled 10 rounds)
The Ogre, more than a little annoyed at the pesky spell Kasenarrion managed to cast upon him, set about doing what Ogres do best. Smashing things. The Ogre approached Xaris, the closest to him at the time, and with a mighty swing tried to cleave the gnome half. But a gnome, certainly a forest gnome would not be caught dead at the hands of a giant kin. What kind of reputation would that leave for him? What would people say at his funeral?
Xaris quickly rolled to the side off the orc he had impaled, reveling in the crunch of bones and sinew of the Orc who suffered the Ogres mighty axe. Infuriated the Ogre cursed out loud. “I will feast on gnome flesh tonight!”
At the outcry of the Ogre, the two orcs who still had their wits, crossbows and their lives about them took up their weapons in an attempt to fight back. Moving back from the deadly melees of Artanis and Xaris, they took aim at the two warriors, hoping to earn favor from their master.
The bolt destined for Xaris went exceedingly wide, clattering off the far stone wall and disappearing down the nearby pit. The one for Artanis, once more bounced off her shield, causing it to crackle anew, a third quartz now filled with swirling blue energy.
Aelistae, the last to react, now with a free doorway from which to fire from, took to her bow-twanging. With a command to bring down the orcs, she let loose her first arrow of the battle, which sailed harmlessly past her intended target, skittering across the floor.
Round 2:
Linnix was the first to act this time round, and with her freshly reloaded crossbow she fired once more at the far left Orc she had injured earlier. This bolt however glanced off the makeshift leathers he wore, and left the woman scouring at her miss.
Kasenarrion, Tyr’s divine influence surging through her veins. Her target was set as she let out a battle cry.
For Tyr, for Righteousness, for Retribution, and for Justice! ” Her voice filled the room and echoed off the stone walls. Raising her newly acquired spear, she moved to strike the Ogre, still dazzled by her spell. Kas stepped over the broken barricade and thrust her spear at the Ogre the glowing tip of the spear growing in brightness as it pierced the Ogre’s thick hide with ease. As it struck however, Kasenarrion could feel her own strength dwindle, as though it were leeched from her body and into the spear, guiding it further into the Ogre’s side. (-2 Kas 25/31) (-9 Ogre)
Aelistae, apparently more motivated this time round as next to act, notching another arrow and sending it at the Orc previously wounded by Linnix. This time however, her aim was perfection personified, as her arrow took the Orc square between the eyes, lifting it from it’s feet and carrying it a few feet backwards, dead even before it hit the wall and crumpled nearby the covered woman who shrieked. (Critical hit! -27 damage/DEAD)
Artanis was good to go as well. Moving from her felled foe to the last remaining orc, The orc fired at her in desperation as she closed the distance, this one bypassing her sturdy shield and glancing her shoulder. (-3 Artanis 26/43) Artanis however would not be swayed from her target, and with another swipe of her deadly blade, sent the orc to its doom on the cold stone floor.
The Ogre was tired of the invaders disturbing his domain, and swung a devastating swing of his axe towards Kasenarrion. The Axe, --what was it with Axes???-- bit deep into Kas’ already wounded side, swatting her away like a fly. (-16 Kas 9/31) Kas forced herself to stand, using the spear for support.
Xaris, not about to let the grievous wound of his companion go unpunished, darted in under the Ogre’s axe swing and proved once more what an incredible super gnome he truly was. His short sword, though lacking in reach, was as sharp as any, and cut easily into the Ogre’s leg, just below the knee. The Ogre howled in anger as Xaris’ blade sunk deep into his skin, biting into and through the bone, severing it from its other, heavier half as it was supporting some 800 lbs of Ogre. (Another Critical Hit with Max Damage! -28 Ogre)
Loriel moved into the doorway once more, Moonshadow still barking at her side. She leveled her sights on the fallen Ogre, and let two more arrows fly into the massive beast even as he began to rise to a sit up. Both arrows slammed into his chest, but his armor once more halted most of the destructive force of them. (-2 Ogre)
From the Corner, where the woman in haversack had been slumped, the rucksack was tossed aside as she stood, revealing a perfectly healthy woman dressed in black and green robes, baring a short bone wand. With a sneer she cackled. “While I commend you on your sense of morality and justice. I pity you fools, for while my master moves his plan one step further to completion, you will not live to see the light of day!” With that she let loose her wand’s command word, and it shot forth a bolt of searing lightning shot forth crackling on an angle that would put both Xaris and Artanis as well as the fallen Ogre in its path. Xaris, his sword still burdened by the weight of the Ogre’s leg could not move in time, and took the full brunt of the spell, while Artanis could only put her shield up in hopes of protecting her as it had so many times before already. The Lightning Bolt spell tore through the Ogre and Xaris, before hitting Artanis’ shield. Which crackled in response against the electrical force. Though it seemed to protected Artanis somewhat, the shield was energized something fierce, as 7 of the 8 quartzes were now crackling with energy, and the shield audibly hummed and shook in her hands while Artanis tried to shake off the force which almost laid her low. (-20 Ogre, -20 Xaris 31/60, -15 Artanis 11/43)
The Ogre, twitched from the lightning which coursed through it’s body, it’s skin charred and its back turned into the equivalent of cracklings before it slumped over very dead.
Cackling in maniacal glee, the woman dropped the wand in her hand and drew out another identical one. Even as the first his the floor, it disintegrated, its energies spent.

Subject: Posted!
The door swings open with unexpected ease, for the newer hinges are oiled and well kept. The door opens and the inside is revealed. The room is a good forty feet square, the stone walls are covered with black tabards and flags bearing the crescent moon and bloody eye upon them.
There in the room are 4 5x5 foot pits in the four corners of the room, with braziers hanging above them, blue flames burning brightly within. In the middle of the room is a low 3 foot barricade made of barrels and boxes, behind which are four orcs, each with crossbows at the ready. As soon as Artanis throws the door open, all four let their first volley of bolts fly.
Artanis is caught agape as the bolts hurry towards her, raising her new shield in reflexive response. The small bolts bounce harmlessly off the doorway, stone walls, and two hit her shield, which crackles unexpectedly in response. Sparing a glance to the shield, two of the quartz stones embedded in the shield are now crackling with a blue energy.
Behind the orcs, stands a massive Ogre, easily 14ft tall, with earth hued skin and donning a robe of tiger striped fur. His massive tusks rise above his upper lip, and are topped with rings of silver and gold. “Welcome, to my lair strangers where you shall enjoy my hospitality much like she has.” With a wave of a massive hand wielding an even larger two headed axe, the Ogre gestures towards the crumpled form of a woman chained to the wall behind him, near the far back left pit. She is covered in loose haversacks and doesn’t move aside from the rise and fall of her whimpered breathing.
It should be noted there is no sign of the child that should be here. Behind the ogre, against the far back middle wall is a massive throne of cherry wood and gold inlay. Torches provide ample lighting in this room, as does a massive 5’ round variant of the candle orb affixed to the ceiling.
As the Ogre laughs, the orc’s begin a low chanting as they reload their bolts. “Trask, Trask, Trask Trask…”
