    @ooc This thread needs more BOO!!!!

    and geez, i've been dead for a couple of days now, not sure why i'm still up when i have work tonight lol. Good night guys, will catch up on the board whenever i wake up and have the time. Hope no one dies, but i'm surprised with Alora's seeming carelessness (not the way you play her, just the char herself) that she hasn't been more severely injured yet. Good luck guys, good night and God bless. *waves to everyone and passes out*

    Been following this since last night, when the inevitable arrives... A Sarevok (with a hint of Imoen) would enjoy helping everyone fail... I mean would love to help kill that nasty lich thing.

    OOC: I'd been holding back the Boo comments, didn't want them to get to redundant and annoying lol.

    I´m not sure Lady Alora. I don´t think he has the best intentions, and you should at least be careful around Edwin. He´s definitely been useful so far. But Sir Keldorn warned me about him, and Sir Keldorn rarely makes mistakes in that regard.

    OOC Boo comments are never redundant.

    @Evinfuilt
    Let the DM know. There are a few in the queue but I'm not sure how many. I think our life expectancy is pretty short though.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Okay Ajantis, you might be right. But I still like him. He's funny. Like a grumpy bunny rabbit.
  • AlejandroAlejandro Member Posts: 201
    Sometimes I wish I could see through this world with your eyes, Alora. It certainly seems merrier that way.

    As Minsc gives up, um, butt sitting for goodness, Edwin casts Detect Magic on both remaining chests. The silver chest detects as weak magic within, while the magic inside the gold chest is somewhat stronger.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Edwin do you know the Knock spell? Of course you do. Edwin knows all the spells. Edwin's as clever as Elminster.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    I think Edwin has forgotten to memorise his Knock spell. Minsc do you want to sit on the gold chest again?

    "Xzar follows Edwin through the portal, more or less going along with what he said, more do to ignoring what it was that he said then anything else"

    "After passing through the gateway he arrives on the other end, with everyone else"

    Could we cease the incessant noise?! 'Tis such a pain behind the eyes! Xzar claims the silver chest. it should do nicely for what I need "He looks around as if expecting something to jump out at him, he then looks to Minsc" Tell me 'bout the rabbits there warrior. "He then walks over and sits by the silver chest"

    OOC: Sorry for delay was out, only just not got back.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Xzar. Do you know the Knock spell?
  • DrugarDrugar Member Posts: 1,566
    Heh, you are not wrong little one. I approve of your compliments, true as they are.
    I do possess the knock spell but I see no need to use them here. Instead, I will use another of my magics.
    Please stand back, I wouldn't want any of you to get hurt (not while it can be avoided, I might need some of you later)

    OOC: I cast Summon Monster I and whatever I summon, I order to open the chests.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    I hide in the shadows at the back of the room in case the monster doesn't know how to pick locks.
  • AmardarialAmardarial Member Posts: 270
    "Xzar looks around all crazed like" Wait who said that?! "He then looks down and sees Alora" Oh a...wait..."As if nodding to someone else" Yes, of course I know she is a halfling mum!

    Knock *Looks through his spell book" No

    "Upon seeing the remains of the skeleton he wanders over to it, shuffles through the remains, and picks out a few intact bones and tosses them into his bag, then walks back over to the silver chest and waits, seems he expects someone else to open it for him"

    OOC: @LadyRhian was there any loot? were the scimitars anything special?
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Three Hobgoblins answer Edwin's summons. The first opens the gold chest, and 12 large asps slither out of it. One of the asps bites the Hobgoblin, and within moments, its flesh starts to rot from the inside out...

    http://www.wizards.com/dnd/images/ToH_Gallery/ToHGraphic13b.jpg

    It screams in pain, shrieking over and over as more and more of its flesh sloughs off and turns to slime on the floor.. and the other asps are on the move...
  • AlejandroAlejandro Member Posts: 201
    Ajantis steps away, he does not have a good feeling about this.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Run away! Run away!
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Sorry, @IchigoRXC, just two normal giant-sized scimitars.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    If the asps aren't after me I will use my sling. If they are I am running out of the room.
  • DrugarDrugar Member Posts: 1,566
    Ah, and this is why it is always good to have some monkey do these things for you.
    Time to clear this up.

    OOC: I cast burning hands at all the snakes. Then I GTFO and hide behind the armour plated warriors.
  • AlejandroAlejandro Member Posts: 201
    Ajantis Tries to fight his way over Alora and then protect her from the asps.

    OOC: Now I have to leave for a while, sorry. DM use my character as she sees fit. If he dies, make it a glorius death xD
  • AmardarialAmardarial Member Posts: 270
    OOC: DM are there are anyone within ~8-10 feet of the two asps, summons not included? Also what are the other two Hobgoblins doing?
  • IchigoRXCIchigoRXC Member Posts: 1,001
    *Tiax casts Spiritual hammer*
    You fools, Tiax said not to open the gold one. Why does no one ever listen to Tiax. Edwin, summon more minions to keep them busy. Kivan arrows to the heads. Tiax, smush them with your hammer... Wait Tiax is already one that. Oh the hilarity.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Edwin, try to watch what Xzar is casting. I think he is a bit loopy. If he looks like he is going to cast a lightning bolt tell me when to duck!

    "Xzar looks around" Wonder what's in this silver chest? Maybe it's jelly, Xzar likes some jelly on his bread, specially green!

    "He waits to see how everything plays out before doing anything himself"

    "Xzar smiles at the thought of the halfling ducking"

    OOC Can Kivan cast Animal friendship on an asp? (Actually I think these may be magical asps of some kind?)
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Edwin is able to kill half the snakes with the burning hands. As he turns to flee, though, one of the asps sinks its fangs into his foot... He rolls his poison save...a 1... Burning pain floods through his calf, as if his blood turned to acidic lava, and a howl of pain escapes his throat.

    The other six snakes fan out into the party, striking here and there, but unable to get a good bite in on the warriors, Alora seeks an opening to throw a sling stone, but is foiled by the larger bodies of her companions. And then she feels the sting on her foot. Her scream is no less pretty than Edwin's, and it feels like something inside her is slowly gnawing her foot off with burning teeth. She rolls her poison save... 20. The pain is so intense, she blacks out, but she is saved.
