HF 017 Creed

[6/24/16, 9:54:22 PM] Jamaros: As you fly over Taeral appears in his orb.  "Ok, so where are we actually going?"

[6/24/16, 9:56:07 PM] Creed: "Home."

[6/24/16, 9:56:35 PM] Jamaros: Taeral seems shocked.  "...Really?"

[6/24/16, 9:56:51 PM] Creed: "Mhm."

[6/24/16, 9:57:20 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "Hm...well, I am pleasantly surprised."

[6/24/16, 9:57:28 PM] Creed: "Don't hold your breath."

[6/24/16, 9:57:39 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "Not sure it'd do anything, anyway."

[6/24/16, 9:57:59 PM] Creed: "I'm sure.. could you even suffocate?"

[6/24/16, 9:58:16 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "I'd rather not find out."

[6/24/16, 9:58:32 PM] Creed: "Try going a minute without 'breathing' and see if you need to?"

[6/24/16, 10:00:26 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "...so...now that you know where the eggs are...what's your next plan of attack?"

[6/24/16, 10:00:44 PM] Creed: "I've been thinking about that, and why else do you think we're going home first?"

[6/24/16, 10:01:53 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "You asked about how to unlock the egg's power when you spoke with Mathias...Ioun...whomever."

[6/24/16, 10:02:03 PM] Creed: "Oh, that's kind of part of it."

[6/24/16, 10:02:08 PM] Creed: "The other part is seeing Death again."

[6/24/16, 10:02:19 PM] Creed: "The person/god, not actual dying death."

[6/24/16, 10:02:37 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "...that, somehow, is not any more comforting."

[6/24/16, 10:02:45 PM] Creed: "I told you not to hold your breath."

[6/24/16, 10:02:59 PM] Creed: "Before telling you to, I mean."

[6/24/16, 10:03:09 PM] Creed: "She has one of the eggs."

[6/24/16, 10:03:48 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "...you're going to try the circle again."

[6/24/16, 10:03:55 PM] Creed: "I never promised anything."

[6/24/16, 10:04:16 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "This is crazy!"

[6/24/16, 10:04:23 PM] Creed: "She's a very pleasant god."

[6/24/16, 10:04:30 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "She's Death!"

[6/24/16, 10:05:05 PM] Creed: "Just because that's her name now doesn't mean it always was."

[6/24/16, 10:05:46 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "...Honestly, I don't know why I am surprised."

[6/24/16, 10:05:59 PM] Creed: "I don't know why you are either, to be honest."

[6/24/16, 10:06:16 PM] Creed: "Beside that, Death said that she was going to close the portal. I'm checking to see if it's still there."

[6/24/16, 10:08:45 PM] Jamaros: You are now approaching the prison and begin to descend.  Tiprus lands out front.

[6/24/16, 10:09:49 PM] Creed: "Thank you Tiprus"

[6/24/16, 10:12:20 PM] Creed: Creed will head inside and check on the basement, with Taeral in hand.

[6/24/16, 10:13:11 PM] Jamaros: As you enter, you find the place absolutely trashed.

[6/24/16, 10:13:20 PM] Creed: ((Oooof course ))

[6/24/16, 10:13:39 PM] Creed: Creed searches for the box

[6/24/16, 10:14:02 PM] Jamaros: You are holding the box.

[6/24/16, 10:14:09 PM] Creed: ((oh))

[6/24/16, 10:14:11 PM] Jamaros: They gave it to you before you left.

[6/24/16, 10:14:14 PM] Jamaros: They just got it.

[6/24/16, 10:14:32 PM] Creed: (( I thought it was here, is anything missing? ))

[6/24/16, 10:14:49 PM] Jamaros: Roll investigation.

[6/24/16, 10:15:08 PM] Creed: ((15))

[6/24/16, 10:15:22 PM] Jamaros: You start looking around.  Where do you check first?

[6/24/16, 10:15:46 PM] Jamaros: Map for reference.

[6/24/16, 10:15:47 PM] Creed: Quill's Room.

[6/24/16, 10:16:20 PM] Creed: Actually, Creed's never been in it, so she wouldn't know what would be missing

[6/24/16, 10:16:25 PM] Creed: Instead, Rune's first.

[6/24/16, 10:16:37 PM] Jamaros: Ok, Rune's room appears to be the most trashed.

[6/24/16, 10:16:46 PM] Creed: "Taeral, is anything missing in here?"

[6/24/16, 10:16:58 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "I can't tell, it's so..."

[6/24/16, 10:17:20 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "It doesn't appear to be.  There's even some of our gold left by the toilet."

[6/24/16, 10:17:32 PM] Creed: "What an odd place to keep your gold."

[6/24/16, 10:17:40 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "Would you look there?"

[6/24/16, 10:17:50 PM] Creed: "If I was earnestly searching for gold? Yes."

[6/24/16, 10:17:59 PM] Creed: "It comes with the trade."

[6/24/16, 10:18:13 PM] Creed: "I can imagine who would have wrecked our house."

[6/24/16, 10:18:33 PM] Creed: Creed heads to her own room

[6/24/16, 10:18:55 PM] Jamaros: Roll perception first.

[6/24/16, 10:19:37 PM] Creed: (( 13 cross the board ))

[6/24/16, 10:21:35 PM] Jamaros: As you head for the door...FWIP!  A dagger shoots out from the darkness, the source of which you didn't even see, cutting across your torso.

[6/24/16, 10:21:52 PM] Jamaros: Take five points of damage and roll initiative.

[6/24/16, 10:23:57 PM] Creed: The one time Creed tries to relax, too.

[6/24/16, 10:24:05 PM] Jamaros: Sorry, dude.

[6/24/16, 10:24:13 PM] Creed: Nah, I expected as such

[6/24/16, 10:24:17 PM] Creed: ooh damn

[6/24/16, 10:24:18 PM] Creed: that crit

[6/24/16, 10:25:38 PM] Jamaros: You go, then.

[6/24/16, 10:25:58 PM] Jamaros: Exiting the room, you see two familiar bird men to your left.

[6/24/16, 10:26:12 PM] Creed: (( familiar? ))

[6/24/16, 10:26:19 PM] Creed: (( oh.. I remember now ))

[6/24/16, 10:26:44 PM] Creed: "What's the big deal, first you attack me on sight in the streets, and now in my own home?"

[6/24/16, 10:27:05 PM] Jamaros: KAW KAW

[6/24/16, 10:27:08 PM] Creed: Creed will pull out a dagger and shortsword (main hand short).

[6/24/16, 10:27:49 PM] Creed: She'll also cast hideous laughter on one.

[6/24/16, 10:28:09 PM] Jamaros: Are you staying in the room?

[6/24/16, 10:28:27 PM] Creed: Considering that she didn't encounter anything in the room, she'll be at the doorway.

[6/24/16, 10:28:40 PM] Jamaros: So, there?

[6/24/16, 10:28:45 PM] Creed: Yes.

[6/24/16, 10:29:16 PM] Creed: For reference, the box of Anna's will be within a separate bag than the egg.

[6/24/16, 10:29:30 PM] Jamaros: Ok, got it.

[6/24/16, 10:29:36 PM] Creed: Like, a satchel bag.

[6/24/16, 10:29:57 PM] Creed: Did the spell work on the raven crow things?

[6/24/16, 10:30:04 PM] Jamaros: How does it work?

[6/24/16, 10:30:25 PM] Creed: Wisdom saving throw or fall prone, unless it has an int score of 4 or less

[6/24/16, 10:30:44 PM] Creed: it will also take damage at the end of each of its turns

[6/24/16, 10:30:53 PM] Jamaros: What's the DC?

[6/24/16, 10:31:09 PM] Creed: 12

[6/24/16, 10:31:24 PM] Creed: 13\*

[6/24/16, 10:31:29 PM] Jamaros: They both fail.

[6/24/16, 10:31:32 PM] Creed: because I don't know how to update my character level in my sheet

[6/24/16, 10:31:36 PM] Jamaros: 3 and 11

[6/24/16, 10:31:40 PM] Creed: lol

[6/24/16, 10:31:48 PM] Creed: Then they are both prone

[6/24/16, 10:32:18 PM] Jamaros: And, what's the damage?

[6/24/16, 10:32:58 PM] Creed: it doesn't say.

[6/24/16, 10:33:01 PM] Jamaros: Anyway, he uses half his movement to stand up and then charges Tiprus.

[6/24/16, 10:33:06 PM] Creed: oh uh

[6/24/16, 10:33:15 PM] Creed: The target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or fall prone, becoming incapacitated and unable to stand up for the duration. A creature with an Intelligence score of 4 or less isn’t affected.

[6/24/16, 10:33:26 PM] Creed: At the end of each of its turns, and each time it takes damage, the target can make another Wisdom saving throw.

[6/24/16, 10:33:33 PM] Creed: ( in order to get back up )

[6/24/16, 10:33:38 PM] Jamaros: Oh.

[6/24/16, 10:33:43 PM] Jamaros: They cannot stand up.

[6/24/16, 10:33:51 PM] Jamaros: That's an important distinction.

[6/24/16, 10:33:57 PM] Creed: Yeah, sorry bout that.

[6/24/16, 10:34:17 PM] Jamaros: Ok, then...he does nothing.

[6/24/16, 10:34:21 PM] Jamaros: Cause he can't move.

[6/24/16, 10:34:25 PM] Creed: Except laugh uncontrollably.

[6/24/16, 10:34:29 PM] Creed: :P

[6/24/16, 10:34:41 PM] Creed: It also only affects one of them.

[6/24/16, 10:34:59 PM] Jamaros: Ok, do you want to affect that one or the other one?

[6/24/16, 10:35:08 PM] Creed: the one that hasn't moved yet

[6/24/16, 10:35:47 PM] Jamaros: Ok, the other guy does attack and he hits then.

[6/24/16, 10:35:52 PM] Jamaros: For five whole points.

[6/24/16, 10:35:59 PM] Jamaros: Out of her nearly 200 hp.

[6/24/16, 10:36:12 PM] Creed: Lool

[6/24/16, 10:36:42 PM] Jamaros: Tiprus strikes back, with a critical hit.

[6/24/16, 10:37:12 PM] Creed: Oh god

[6/24/16, 10:37:21 PM] Jamaros: And does 10 DAM with one punch.  He is looking really rough.

[6/24/16, 10:37:53 PM] Creed: Wow.

[6/24/16, 10:38:28 PM] Jamaros: The other guy...can't move.

[6/24/16, 10:38:33 PM] Jamaros: So, it's your turn.

[6/24/16, 10:38:59 PM] Jamaros: That was nothing, imagine if Tiprus had a weapon.

[6/24/16, 10:39:26 PM] Creed: Oof, yeah.

[6/24/16, 10:39:45 PM] Creed: Creed will get closer to the one that attacked tiprus and hit him with a shocking grasp

[6/24/16, 10:39:58 PM] Jamaros: Ok, roll it.

[6/24/16, 10:40:18 PM] Jamaros: Does he get a save, or is it just an attack?

[6/24/16, 10:40:29 PM] Creed: It's instantaneous at touch

[6/24/16, 10:40:43 PM] Creed: so if there's Touch AC there's that.

[6/24/16, 10:40:56 PM] Creed: but it doesn't really have a save,no.

[6/24/16, 10:41:03 PM] Creed: (( I don't roll the attack I just roll damage ))

[6/24/16, 10:41:08 PM] Jamaros: You have to roll an attack.

[6/24/16, 10:41:13 PM] Creed: (( okay ))

[6/24/16, 10:41:16 PM] Jamaros: Roll d20 and add your Dex.

[6/24/16, 10:41:28 PM] Creed: bbfbptpt

[6/24/16, 10:41:49 PM] Jamaros: Even at a touch ac, he manages to dodge your graps.

[6/24/16, 10:41:59 PM] Jamaros: You may use a bonus action to attack.

[6/24/16, 10:42:14 PM] Creed: Will do by attempting to drive my shortsword into him

[6/24/16, 10:42:38 PM] Jamaros: You succeed, and kill him.

[6/24/16, 10:43:01 PM] Jamaros: Tiprus looks at you.  "Should I kill the other one?"

[6/24/16, 10:43:19 PM] Creed: "How are you in interpreting squawks?"

[6/24/16, 10:44:20 PM] Jamaros: Tiprus: "I can do more than squawks."

[6/24/16, 10:44:36 PM] Jamaros: She walks over and places her hand on the incapacitated creature's forehead.

[6/24/16, 10:44:46 PM] Creed: "Oh right, mind magics."

[6/24/16, 10:44:57 PM] Jamaros: Tiprus: "What do you wish to know?"

[6/24/16, 10:45:12 PM] Creed: "Who sent them, and what they were looking for.""

[6/24/16, 10:45:30 PM] Creed: This message has been removed.

[6/24/16, 10:45:33 PM] Jamaros: ((Actually, wait, I was wrong.))

[6/24/16, 10:45:40 PM] Jamaros: ((You've never seen these things before))

[6/24/16, 10:45:50 PM] Jamaros: ((You were not there for that fight.))

[6/24/16, 10:45:53 PM] Creed: (( they weren't the things that shot at me in the streets? ))

[6/24/16, 10:46:01 PM] Creed: (( before noticing anna and flying away? ))

[6/24/16, 10:46:23 PM] Jamaros: ((No, these are crow men.  The others fought them while you ran off to the library.))

[6/24/16, 10:46:29 PM] Jamaros: ((I forgot completely.)

[6/24/16, 10:46:41 PM] Creed: (( ha, well then scrap the last part of what she wanted to find out, and the last sentence ))

[6/24/16, 10:46:43 PM] Jamaros: ((Sorry))

[6/24/16, 10:47:01 PM] Jamaros: ((Scratch that))

[6/24/16, 10:47:11 PM] Jamaros: Anyway, a moment passes, and Tiprus turns to you.

[6/24/16, 10:47:48 PM] Jamaros: Tiprus: "He mentions a Black man, one who helps them fly.  He sent them to find something big and red."

[6/24/16, 10:47:59 PM] Creed: "Mmm, not surprised."

[6/24/16, 10:47:59 PM] Jamaros: Tiprus: "Rune was supposed to have it here."

[6/24/16, 10:48:19 PM] Jamaros: Tiprus: "These two were to bring it to him for him to sell."

[6/24/16, 10:48:49 PM] Creed: "Find out if this Black man has the blue egg, and where he's located."

[6/24/16, 10:49:30 PM] Creed: "If the Crow knows, at least."

[6/24/16, 10:50:46 PM] Jamaros: Tiprus closes her eyes again and then turns back to you.  "This one does not know.  He knows only of the red egg."

[6/24/16, 10:50:58 PM] Creed: "Doesn't know the location of his boss?"

[6/24/16, 10:51:21 PM] Jamaros: Tiprus: "He does know this.  One moment."

[6/24/16, 10:54:02 PM] Jamaros: The Crow-Man twitches and writhes and jerks suddenly...and then stops...and goes limp.  Tiprus rises, leaving a twitching Kenku on the floor, foam pouring out of its mouth.  Tiprus smiles.

[6/24/16, 10:54:24 PM] Jamaros: Tiprus: "He says the Black man is staying at the pub out here.  A really shoddy one."

[6/24/16, 10:54:32 PM] Creed: "There's a few of those."

[6/24/16, 10:55:00 PM] Jamaros: Tiprus: "I'm sorry.  The creature's mind was very simple, it only understood so much."

[6/24/16, 10:55:12 PM] Creed: "That's alright, you did very well."

[6/24/16, 10:55:23 PM] Creed: "As for them, let's clean up a bit of this mess."

[6/24/16, 10:55:33 PM] Jamaros: Tiprus smiles and nods.

[6/24/16, 10:55:57 PM] Creed: Creed will organize her and Rune's room, placing Taeral against the wall as she does so.

[6/24/16, 10:56:04 PM] Creed: "Sorry for dropping you, Taeral."

[6/24/16, 10:57:45 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "It's quite alright.  A weird experience...but I understand the necessity."

[6/24/16, 10:58:18 PM] Creed: "Do you know where everything of Rune's goes?"

[6/24/16, 10:59:13 PM] Jamaros: Taeral guides you through the process as best he can.  Sadly, there's no way to repair the torn mattress or broken dresser.

[6/24/16, 10:59:37 PM] Jamaros: Not without tools and know how, anyway.

[6/24/16, 11:00:02 PM] Creed: "Tiprus, did you get the name of that dresser in the clothes shop?"

[6/24/16, 11:00:28 PM] Jamaros: ((There was a dresser in the clothes shop?))

[6/24/16, 11:00:44 PM] Creed: (( uh, I meant the shop keeper guy person ))

[6/24/16, 11:00:52 PM] Creed: (( I forget the name of clerks in clothing stores ))

[6/24/16, 11:00:57 PM] Jamaros: Tiprus: "Oh, Flare."

[6/24/16, 11:01:02 PM] Jamaros: Tiprus: "He seemed nice."

[6/24/16, 11:01:09 PM] Creed: "Do you think he does any home calls?"

[6/24/16, 11:01:43 PM] Jamaros: Tipurs: "I don't know.  I can fly and ask."

[6/24/16, 11:01:55 PM] Creed: "If you do, see if he can fix mattresses."

[6/24/16, 11:02:05 PM] Jamaros: Tiprus nods and runs out.

[6/24/16, 11:02:25 PM] Creed: "Taeral, have you seen the inside of everyone else's rooms?"

[6/24/16, 11:02:57 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "Only Quill's."

[6/24/16, 11:03:17 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "If we wait for the others, they might be able to help us."

[6/24/16, 11:03:33 PM] Creed: "Well, if we clean up the mess first then it'll be like nothing was destroyed."

[6/24/16, 11:04:00 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "...you don't want the others to know someone is coming for the egg."

[6/24/16, 11:04:16 PM] Creed: "I don't want them to worry any more than they already have been."

[6/24/16, 11:05:23 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "That is kind, but foolish.  If the others know, they can prepare."

[6/24/16, 11:06:46 PM] Creed: "It seems that's a common characteristic of me then." She gathers the items of the unkept rooms and neatly organizes them along the walls of their rooms.

[6/24/16, 11:07:28 PM] Creed: Does Creed know whether or not Quill has her book still? Or was it found in his room while she was tidying it?

[6/24/16, 11:07:46 PM] Jamaros: I think he gave it back to you...unless I am mistaken.

[6/24/16, 11:08:00 PM] Creed: I'm not sure whether or not he did.

[6/24/16, 11:08:08 PM] Creed: She never did get the translated version.

[6/24/16, 11:13:09 PM] Creed: Creed will wait for Flare to arrive.

[6/24/16, 11:13:44 PM] Jamaros: ((Sorry, stuff happened))

[6/24/16, 11:13:52 PM] Creed: (( that's fine! ))

[6/24/16, 11:13:58 PM] Jamaros: You do not find your book in Quill's room

[6/24/16, 11:14:02 PM] Jamaros: Roll WIS

[6/24/16, 11:14:32 PM] Creed: Oh boy.

[6/24/16, 11:14:38 PM] Creed: (( nat 1'd a 2 ))

[6/24/16, 11:15:02 PM] Jamaros: It should be here dude.  WHY ISN'T IT HERE DUDE?!?

[6/24/16, 11:15:08 PM] Creed: OH GOD DUDE

[6/24/16, 11:15:17 PM] Jamaros: DDDUUUUUUUUDDDDDDDDEEEEE!

[6/24/16, 11:15:20 PM] Jamaros: :)

[6/24/16, 11:15:24 PM] Creed: Creed will try to find the translated version? P:

[6/24/16, 11:15:44 PM] Jamaros: You do not find one.

[6/24/16, 11:15:58 PM] Creed: Dang

[6/24/16, 11:16:52 PM] Jamaros: Eventually Flare arrives.  For the sake of time, I'll say he is convinced to help you.

[6/24/16, 11:17:00 PM] Jamaros: He makes the repairs.

[6/24/16, 11:17:09 PM] Creed: Wooo

[6/24/16, 11:17:35 PM] Creed: "How much is it for the housecall and repair, and do you know any carpenters that are as good as you are with fabric?"

[6/24/16, 11:18:20 PM] Jamaros: Flare: "I'd say five gold for the house call.  I'm afraid I know of no carpenters.  And the dresser is beyond my spellwork."

[6/24/16, 11:19:12 PM] Creed: "That's alright." Creed will hand him 6 gold instead.

[6/24/16, 11:19:15 PM] Creed: "Thank you again, Flare."

[6/24/16, 11:19:24 PM] Jamaros: Flare: "I knew there was a reason I liked you."

[6/24/16, 11:19:51 PM] Jamaros: Flare: "If you are ever looking for a less hazardous career choice, we're always hiring at T&T."

[6/24/16, 11:20:22 PM] Creed: "I'm quite alright, but I'll keep my ears open for anyone looking for a job."

[6/24/16, 11:23:24 PM] Jamaros: Flare nods.  "Any chance your friend here can give me a ride back?  Public transit is so dead these days."

[6/24/16, 11:23:38 PM] Creed: "Only if she's up for it."

[6/24/16, 11:23:50 PM] Jamaros: Tiprus nods and carries Flare out.

[6/24/16, 11:25:59 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "So, how will you explain the dresser, then?"

[6/24/16, 11:26:28 PM] Creed: "I could always chuck it and buy a new one of the same variety."

[6/24/16, 11:26:46 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "Yes, all before they get back."

[6/24/16, 11:26:52 PM] Creed: "Tiprus is quite fast."

[6/24/16, 11:27:38 PM] Jamaros: Taeral scoffs.

[6/24/16, 11:28:13 PM] Creed: "In the meantime.." Creed heads towards the basement. "We have something to check up on, in case our intruders intruded a bit too far."

[6/24/16, 11:28:34 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "Ah, yes, let's go meet Death.  I'm sure that shall go well."

[6/24/16, 11:28:47 PM] Creed: Creed will go downstairs

[6/24/16, 11:28:54 PM] Jamaros: Are you carrying Taeral?

[6/24/16, 11:29:00 PM] Creed: Yeap.

[6/24/16, 11:29:14 PM] Jamaros: Taeral lights up.  The room appears unchanged since you last saw it.

[6/24/16, 11:29:21 PM] Creed: Portal still open?

[6/24/16, 11:29:50 PM] Jamaros: You don't know.

[6/24/16, 11:29:59 PM] Jamaros: The etchings are still there.

[6/24/16, 11:30:04 PM] Creed: Creed uses Detect magic

[6/24/16, 11:30:17 PM] Jamaros: You see that same black light oozing from it.

[6/24/16, 11:30:25 PM] Creed: I think she'd take that as a yes.

[6/24/16, 11:30:35 PM] Creed: "Death's door is still open."

[6/24/16, 11:30:47 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "Well...best not keep her waiting then."

[6/24/16, 11:30:52 PM] Jamaros: Taeral: "Let's go."

[6/24/16, 11:30:57 PM] Creed: "How nice of her to invite us~"

[6/24/16, 11:31:12 PM] Creed: Creed places a foot on the circle

[6/24/16, 11:32:41 PM] Jamaros: The black light surrounds you and Taeral, and you find yourself back in that void.  Death towers over you, a grin on her face, as her voice surrounds you.  "Welcome back, Child of Creed.  I have been expecting you."  And...End Credits!

[6/24/16, 11:32:48 PM] Jamaros: We'll pick up from here next week.
