CAM:
what does your character think is their best attribute?
easy going. doesn't need food, water, much sleep, doesn't really bleed.
dreams of the friendliness. (she has that with animals. maybe people one day.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
confused harvery and everyone. Searos fire too big.
what is Pel doing? woke up and putting out a few sparks of the fire on him.
"3/10 adventurers die like that" -Valon.
Kas just watching.
Paws is worried about Harvey.
Harvey is worried about himself but will not show it
Searos is determined to not sleep the night and ride on the back of the mules. It does NOT go well.
Valon wants to search for the metal glint that searos saw. Looking/hoping for nin.
No luck
Day 2 of 3 day trip to vermilon
terrain is increasingly steeper. barely any tracks anymore.
mid-late afternoon, enjoying a flat stretch of terrain. chilly air.
Kas keeps checking in on heavy breathing pel because she doesn't need to breathe!
The forest gets closer to the track, 100-80 ft off. we see three figures standing off the middle of the road.
Standing still, could be in conversation. can't hear.
Valon grabs Paws should and sends off Ori.
The figures come into focus and ori gets closer.
Three humanoids. One wears a hood with long yellow beard and wears a utaritatium tunic, dark brown. no weapons.
other (left) carries a spear and is much shorter and seems to have dwarven heritage and female. battered sheild.
other (right) carries a sword at his side and a long bow. Orcish ancestry, blue-green.
They watch as Ori approaches. the hooded bearded figure grins a bit and nods at Ori.
They stopped the conversation when they saw Ori so Ori flies into the trees and Valon tells us about teh group.
Pel is confused why we are so worried. He wants to go check in with the 'hunters'. Valon tries to send him off. Kas grabs his sleeve and doesn't let go and says "STAY BY ME AT ALL TIMES" Pel does but is annoyed. He wants us to keep moving so I do take a few steps forward to appease both sides.
Searos prepares a tidal wave.
Does Pel have Armor? NOPE. I cast Mage armor on him. He is a little terrified. He has never really seen magic and never had anyone cast on him. (bubble wrapped him). Don't go running into danger, it's not gonna help but it might for small things.******
AS we wave and give friendly gestures, they respond. quiet communication between them. they don't move far but just a bit.
Paws gets nervous for a possible ambush and checks the trees. one of the branches in the trees starts moving in an odd way. not natural.
Paws tells Valon about the tree.
use ori to owlbear roar. Only paws and Valon knows. Gotta worry about Pel!
*******I look at Pel and say 'Not small, not small!!!" and step in front of Pel.
Valon and Paws look for the moving tree branch.
one of the three figures talks about their time with owlbears and how this isn't one.
we start chatting with the figures. seems odd but not divine sense sparks.
Lots of beasties and Baddies. but luckly the wardens of the woods here have cleared up a huge nest of uglies.
Anyhting edible? def not.....
'But don't worry, we took care of it for you'
Harvey's experience in caravans. sometimes this is legit, sometimes not.
Valon asks about the skull symbol.
There used to be this town called vermillon. WEird stuff happened a long time ago. Stayed weird for decades after that. We've taken it upon ourselves to keep things contained.
A thankless job, no payment.
I ask Pel if he has seen these people. Pel has not.
Valon offers them 5 gold. tells them to go to maron and get a discount from our name.
valon gives them his name and they step off the path and let us through.
Harvey looks for symbols and identifying markers. nope. non descript.
heavy gold bracelet. heavy gemed turquiose silver ring. kinda odd.
Harvey notices the bearded and hooded person with a pouch. dips his hand in his pouch, rummaging around and mutters something. He then turns to make his way down the track with his companions.
Harvey is going to bend down like he is tying his shoe and drop out a piece of paper and write "robe cast spell" and pass to valon.
Valon calls out to the figures again.
appearences aren't always what they seem. If you head into town, be sure to be true and honest with foks
Didn't seem like we had a problem? Any problems?
For a second, I just thought we weren't being honest.
explains the two tracks to town. the track northeast = to the mines (avoid)
northwest is a shortcut to the pass.
"have a lovley day" -Paws
we find a nice little corner in the forrest to settle in for the night.
Kas goes to brush Krik while Harvey is brushing Krak and tells him that she noticed he didn't sleep well last night. She shows her necklace and asks if she can try something on him. He agrees once his watch is over.
Lesser restoration Harvey before the next evening. (at the end of Harvey's watch)
Kas has 2 shift and last, searos and paws.
Valon asks harvey how he feels.
I've got your back - Valon to harvey.
They hear movement along the trail.
a low curse.
Valon goes to investigate.
sees nothing (rolled a 1)
Valon makes a perimeter check around the campsite.
Valon asks for a worm. 1 half wormleft. Valon rejects it so harvey can have the last one. Harvey will eat it and say "friendship"
Harvey wakes me up and mentions a voice they heard but couldn't find. I use a Lesser restoration prayer bead on harvey and say "sleep well, I hope". (Kim knows this won't work but it's for RP purposes)
Harvey feels aware of his sense. a little bit sharper. rejuvenated in a form.
Searos creates a large illusion around us with thicker trees and overgrown bushes and hillls and rocks.
night is quiet. Harvey is moving in his sleep. last night legs were twitching. tonight, his hands are griping and legs twitching. Kas is bummed that my attempt for harvey didn't work. It makes me sad and i kinda don't watch as well.
Searos hears movment but sees nothing. He notices that harvey is scratching himself.
Searos is on edge. wait and wait but nothing.
Harvey while sleeping, dreams that he is molting, feathers are coming off and he is itchy.
then in the dream as he looks down at himself, instead of feathers, there is thick brown fur. Wake up with a start! look down frantically and the feather are still there except for the spot that he has been itching. no more feathers there and he sees the scar of the werebear bite.
Kas sees harvey get up and comes over to check on him.
harvey says he is not okay. he figured out what's wrong. points at where the werebear bit him and the no feathers. I think I change.
anything happen, Kas take care of mules.
Kas is confused.
Kas gets a silver dagger from Harvey.
Hope no use but use if need. Gives one to Valon as well.
how long ago did you get this scar. werebear.
kas turns and wakes up paws and asks about werewolve
paws tries to explain./ Kas doesn't mention harvey. paws calls it a curse.
Kas tells paws to go back to sleep and madly searches her bag for the cure which is of course on her neck.
Kas is still holding the dagger in shock. she tells Harvey about the
harvey two minds. the second mind has dissipated. the strength is also gone now. He passes out and falls alseep. I watch over him. dreamless
Kas feel a bit worried and bad. gota take this next watch. wake up Pel and make him watch. I ask him for help. I need him. He grows more focus and alert and watches.
I tell him about the night I died.
just nothingness. peace
no emotions. no feelings, just nothingness. Wasn't till later that I saw the pain in my companions' eyes.
erase the pass, rebuild again. We can do it!
no I don't remmeconed.
How did Valon do it??? I don't really understand. I won't ask Valon. I trust him fully but this isn't a conversation I would bring up.
He really wants the world to have the option to choose and get a fresh start and remake their life.
I don't remcommened my way. no food no drink. playing with life and death is dangerous. we need to be really careful.
i thank him for being on watch and doing a great job.
paws tinkers.
Pel stretchs
Valon finds a silver dagger by him and starts picking on Pel.
young punk
Valon gives pel the dagger by dropping it in his oatmeal. Pel loves it.
Harvey takes the dagger and gives it to Valon.
Pel is confused.
how are you feeling? very good. no trouble, no problem. Harvey trust Kas with mule. harvey trust trust Kas. harvey trust valon with dagger.
any regrets? me was very strong? small regret.
but thank you for cure. Kas has the biggest grin for harvey being safe and cured and for feeling a connection to healing magics again.
SHe happily sits with pel
inspiration for that!!!
sees a humanoid. Paws investigates.
Ori owlbear again. I now know the sound.
Ori goes behind Pel and owlbears right there freaking out Pel! Pel reaches for the dagger that is no longer there.
I say hi Ori in Auran and giggle at Ori playing.
Paws is looking for the footprints of the creature.
enormous rock slide comes sliding down/ must protect pel, must protect mules.
150ft wide rock slide hurtling. 75ft on either side of each side. moves 600ft per round. 300ft at 0round and 300ft at 10ft.
above, around, buried, under. Damage if buried. finite amount of time before
I need to ask Pel about his darkness comfortableness.
