From the disturbed dream of one or another of the slumbering troupe enters the figure of a lean, strong woman. Short, shoulder-length hair clouds about her face as if she were submerged underwater. Her armour and spear both meticulously kept while dirt and even dried blood spot her face and arms; a fighter from birth, declaring no man her equal. A sneer of unnatural repugnance fills her face upon sight of the dreamer, turning homely features hideous. Eyes lit with unholy energies she leaps forward with spear...
"What a sorry bunch you are. And with little wonder---The bald one with the desperate need to cover what little he has leads, correct? Bah, fools."
And dream turns to reality, as the dreamer awakes to Shar-Teel.

Well, usually when I am at home. I bowed out tonight because I was hurting. I am guessing we'll start in again around 1 or 2 PM EST tomorrow (EST USA, that is). Speaking of which... I am going back to bed now. The Aspirin has finally kicked in.
@LadyRhian I´ll just read for now. Which is in fact what´ve been doing lately. Not a lot of time to RP properly, and I don't want to take up a character slot and barely use him/her.
But please, carry on, it´s funnier when you don't have to worry about dying, haha
@the_zealot lol, play the char how you see the char, we're not uber serious and going to flame you if you make a mistake. This is just to have fun without putting too much work on our DM. Although with shar-teel around, it would be nice to have a man around to annoy her. Btw, i typically misspell the names of others, and i died on the first page due to me being a man irl and always having to climb into holes to see what's down them.
@ladyrhian please tell me there are no more holes so i can survive this time :P
okay, not sure but i don't think we have a healer atm, so here is my spell list. If anyone notices some changes, comments, suggestions, please let me know
Mage Spells Lvl 1 - 4 spells magic missle x 1 prot from petrification chromatic orb protect from evil Lvl 2 - 4 spells stinking cloud web mirror image sleep lvl 3 - 4 spells Haste fire arrow fireball dispel magic Lvl 4 - 4 spells stone skin greater mailson teleport field remove curse Lvl 5 - 4 spells minor spell turning breach domination monster summoning 3 Lvl 6- 1 spell Stone to flesh
Cleric spells Lvl 1 - 5 spells +2 wis bonus Scanturary cure light wounds x 4 doom (use on xan to see what happens) remove fear Lvl 2 - 5 spells +2 wis bonus find traps x 3 hold person slow poison x 2 draw upon holy might Lvl 3 - 5 spells +1 wis bonus cure disease zone of sweet air cure med wounds x 2 remove curse remove paralysis Lvl 4 - 3 spells lesser restoration cure serious wounds prot from evil 10 foot radius Lvl 5 - 2 spells Raise dead x 2 Lvl 6 - 2 spells heal wonderous recall
@mlnevese i died early last time lol, and i'm also never played pnp a lot. not enough friends irl since i always work alot and odd hours. any comments/suggestions for improvement? And my char hasn't changed, she wants to help keep everyone healthy and alive :P
lol... In my next life, coming back as Haer'Dalis could be a lot of fun, but I doubt he'd last long in this dungeon. He's got a bad case of "Let's see what THIS does!" syndrome. ;D (But if someone else would like to play him, feel free. I'm just spouting nonsense, as per usual.)
Nahhh nice selection. The only way to survive in this place is being paranoid. Empty room? Trap. Spikes on the floor? look for traps on walls... Of course we die anyway, but being paranoid helps
@mlnevese Exactly. In the words of my favorite fictional wizard, "Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean there isn't an invisible demon about to eat your face."
well, that's why i took the multiple raise dead, and lol, i plan to always have an active casting of detect traps. i played pnp for about a year but i don't remember that spell outside baldur's gate, but i never played a cleric. and the thing is, you always see the trap with detect traps....
edit: should i rez/cure disease on any of the ones that got slimed?
Personally it would be neater seeing a sentient slime with all four dead personalities in it.
I don't think anyone has to worry about how they play. I keep going back and forth between good and evil Sarevok, but I know he can't resist trying to lead in either form (heck, in deathbringer description it says their training forces them into leadership, they can't handle being lead around.)
so from @evinfuilt's post, i have 1 yes so far.....i think :P
but i guess would have to ask dm about the party limit we brought you back to life, sorry that you're dripping slime, and alas, we don't have room to take you with us, so ummmm, yeah, good luck
edit: @mlnevese lol, but by gods, don't you mean dm and whatever mood she's in? :P
A sentient slime paladin... I don't have words to describe this concept... Ghaunadain (or whatever the slime god's name is, I don't actually remember) and Helm would have to decide who he belongs to. Maybe a friendly rock/paper/scisors game between gods?
@Bjjorick count two yes. I would like to see how the gods would solve this diplomatic incident
I think ladyrhian said the ones that got slimed turned completely into slime and there is nothing left to Rez.
*kivan is more than a little distraught over the nightmare he just had, but does his best to hide the fact from his companions. It was just a dream after all... At least he keeps telling himself that.*
*kivan does not like shar-teel's demeanor. He decides to have a little fun with her sour personality.*
@shar-teel "how are you doing sweet cheeks? Who sent a woman, if you can even be described as a woman, to do a man's job?"
Before the word 'cheeks' can fully emerge from Kivan's word-hole, Shar-Teel launches a kick into his face---Mercifully cutting short whatever he might have had to say. "Dog. Learn your place. Grovelling at the feet of your betters like the lice-infested beggar you appear to be"
*kivan with his eleven dexterity easily dodges the kick. But it interrupted him mid-sentence.*
"oh a feisty one! I can see that we're going to get along just fine. Or perhaps you're just cranky because you haven't lain with a man in a while. I am willing to lay with you, out of pity more than anything, you only need but ask."
With a sneer, Shar-Teel ignores the posturing elf. She is the stronger of the two, and though in normal circumstance she would have removed the elf's lower jaw for such a statement, that is enough for now.
"Rouse the others of your party, dog---I would be about finding the creature that call's this hole home."

@shar-teel "how are you doing sweet cheeks? Who sent a woman, if you can even be described as a woman, to do a man's job?"
"Dog. Learn your place. Grovelling at the feet of your betters like the lice-infested beggar you appear to be"
@Awong124 This is gonna be fun.
