Forge: (( Ok I'm good ))

Tilus: (( Moved myself back ))

Faiz: (( ...I am so sorry ))

Tilus: (( OH NO IT ))

Tilus: (( ITS THE RETURN OF BLORP ))

Forge: (( Which way to the spooky ghost boners? ))

Threden: (( Pfft. CharBuilder is COMPLETLY CONFUSED about what weapon THROW LIGHTING uses. ))

Imban:

War approaches. A week ago, a call to arms sounded throughout the Elsir Valley, summoning warriors to help defend Bordrin’s Watch in the Stonehome Mountains far to the west. Word of an army of orcs on the march had spread through the Vale for months, but now, it appeared the rumors were true.

Imban:

You, along with militia groups and other adventurers from all over the Vale, marched west until you came to the city of Overlook, a large fortified community raised by dwarves centuries ago. Once there, you and two other groups were invited to attend the Council of Elders, where you learned the Bordrin’s Watch had already been compromised— advanced parties of orcs had uncovered the tunnels beneath the mountains and were already coming through to harass supply trains and reinforcements bound for the fortress.

Mechalomaniac: (( Well time to go defend Helm's Deep. ))

Forge: (( Too bad there's no beach here, then we could have the bloodthirsty orcs attack from offshore ))

Threden: (( Too bad Regris isn't here. We could toss him. ))

Mechalomaniac: (( Fastball special ))

Tilus: (( XD ))

Forge: (( He weighs like 5 lbs, it's more like we're going to toss the bird ))

Forge: (( GIVE EM THE BIRD! GIVE EM THE BIRD!! ))

Threden: (( (Regris) Toss meh. ))

Imban:

The Council asked your group and the others to descend into these tunnels, clear them out, and seal them off before the main host of the enemy army arrived. For your efforts, the Council promised to pay each group 1,000 gp upon their return. Your team is to head to the old Monastery of the Sundered Chain to the southwest, where they can gain access to the tunnels below, while the Farstriders, the most experienced group, head for Bordrin’s Watch to secure those passages, and the Freeriders, a new group like yours, head to Bordrin’s Watch directly.

Imban:

With your mission clear, you and your companions head for the mountains to meet your destiny.

Threden: (( DESTINY ))

Threden: (( ... gundams ))

Azar Macan: (( Sun Vulcan :| ))

Forge: (( Also, are we at the point yet where we're THE HEROES or is that a few levels away? ))

Threden: (( Wanzer :| ))

Imban: (( Definitely a few levels away. You got one of the easier jobs, while the Farstriders are THE HEROES and doing the main thing. ))

Azar Macan: (( well since they sent some other dudes ahead to do other stuff... ))

Imban: (( You're just supposed to go to a monastery and evacuate the people there. ))

Forge: (( Ok then! ))

Imban:

That said, the monastery is 20 miles away. As usual, this means the party has the opportunity to get lost and run into horrible death!

Azar Macan: (( OH BOY ))

Serra: (( I find the compass hilarious in that it does not tell us which direction the bears are. ))

Forge: (( Motherfucking bears. ))

Forge: (( You know what? ))

Azar Macan: (( TWO BEARS ))

Forge: (( Someone roll to FIND a bear ))

Forge: (( Maybe you'll fail at that and we'll actually find where we want ))

Imban:

As such, it's time for a skill challenge!

Serra: (( Now, for the record: From this point on I can roll History -> Nature. ))

Forge: (( Oh Twilight Sparkle ))

Imban:

This round, one character must roll Nature or Perception to lead the party. Two characters must roll Endurance. One character MAY roll Stealth to camouflage the party.

Serra: (( I'll roll Nature. ))

Forge: (( I can do... just a sec ))

Faiz: (( Well, I got a +11 on Endurance... ))

Azar Macan: (( obviously I can roll stealth, if we wish ))

Mechalomaniac: (( I kinda suck at all of those ))

Faiz: (( Perception is +7 and Nature is NOBODY CARES GONNA ROLL 1-3 ANYWAY ))

Forge: (( I got 6 perception ))

Serra:

roll 1d20+10 History -> Nature (take 1?)

* Tilus rolls: 1d20+10 History -> Nature (take 1?) => 18 + 10 = 28

* Serra keeps that roll

Faiz:

Endurance = 26       Rolled: 15     Bonuses: 11

Azar Macan: (( but we have to ask ourselves: is killing stuff worth more experience than the skill check? ))

Faiz: (( Ahaha. INTENTIONALLY BOTCH - WRESTLE ALLIGATORS ))

* Blaine rolls: 1d20+6 Perception => 17 + 6 = 23

Imban:

Serra remembers a map of the land exactly, guiding the party straight towards the Monastery of Sundered Chains.

Azar Macan: (( Umb should roll endurance ))

Forge: (( Yeah my Endurance is bound to be lower than his, so I took the Perception roll ))

* Azar rolls: 1d20+10 STEALTH POWER? => 9 + 10 = 19

Imban:

Forge spots an easier path, though, and guides the party down it. As such, further Endurance checks get a +2 bonus!

Imban: (( I'm going to deny the Stealth roll until someone else rolls Endurance. ))

* Threden rolls: 1d20+13 Endurance => 15 + 13 = 28

Azar Macan: (( Okay~ ))

Imban:

Azar camouflages the party, and no hostile monsters are encountered.

Faiz: (( YOU!! ))

Azar Macan: (( I can take that back if you really want to kil stuff. :v ))

Forge: (( Actually we should be able to surprise THEM for once ))

Faiz: (( Haha. Just one of us running out from the INCONSPICUOUS TREES going "FUCK YOU! ALL DIE!!" ))

Azar Macan: (( Hey, yeah. that's better. ))

Imban:

Well, uh. If the party is ACTUALLY looking for trouble, then they can find it!

Faiz: (( ARE WE CRUISIN' TO BRING A BRUISIN', TEAM?? ))

Azar Macan: (( Imban attacks us with five bears ))

Mechalomaniac: (( I figure we can bring a bruising when we get there ))

Forge: (( Five bears that combine into Beartron ))

Mechalomaniac: (( Monks are fun to beat up anyway ))

Azar Macan: (( I wouldn't be against fightin' dudes ))

Serra: (( I think blaine resents that remark. ))

Forge: (( FORM PAWS AND LEGS! FORM CLAWS AND BODY! AND I'LL FORM THE GRRRAAAAAWRRRR ))

Imban:

roll 1d100 Oh you.

* Imban rolls: 1d100 Oh you. => 11

Forge: (( Keep in mind Mecha I could possibly kill you in one attack ))

Forge: (( Just saying ))

Threden: (( 11 BEARS?! ))

Mechalomaniac: (( Not your type of monk ))

Faiz: (( OH SNAP IT'S THE URSARMY ))

Mechalomaniac: (( Bald harmless cleric type monks ))

Imban:

The party, sneaking their way over to the Monastery of the Sundered Chain, spots two cave bears lurking nearby.

Forge: (( Oh, you mean Krillin ))

Azar Macan: (( Oh you Imban ))

Imban:

They could stop and hack them, or they could wisely move along.

Serra: (( OH SNAP BEARS ))

Imban: (( That was the actual random roll! ))

Faiz: (( What, one bear for every 5? ))

Mechalomaniac: (( Yeah no we're not doing this again ))

Threden: (( Normal progression of challenge. ))

Forge: (( Well there's more of us this time and we have better shit! ))

Imban: (( naah, it's a 1d100 thing, 10% chance of each encounter type ))

Threden: (( YOU HANDLED ONE BEAR? NOW HAVE TWO! ))

Serra: (( I vote for proceeding along, personally. ))

Forge: (( I'm not gonna say we should, but it would be not as much rape ))

Threden: (( We are stonger... ))

Faiz: (( I'd say... maybe. Would feel more comfortable with Regris around. On the other hand, vengeance. ))

Forge: (( Also Serra has Betrayal now, right? ))

Imban: (( 10% 3 griffons, 10% 2 cave bears, 10% 5 hippogriffs, 30% 6 orcs, 10% 5 orcs, 10% 5 wights, 10% 5 ghouls, 10% 4 gnolls ))

Serra: (( We're also down regris, and there are two of them now. ))

Mechalomaniac: (( Me too. Random pointless fights are boring anyway ))

Forge:

BEAR ON BEAR VIOLENCE

Forge: (( OOC that ))

Serra: (( I do have betrayal, yes. And it is at-will. And I do think the bears have pretty bad Will. ))

Serra: (( But still I think I'll pass. ))

Faiz: (( Meh. Fuck it. Let's go snap the necks of things that don't have necks larger than a foot in diameter. ))

Forge: (( Just saying, it's possible. I won't argue the point if the majority wants to sneak past though. ))

Imban:

The bears move to trundle off and look for tasty 1st-level heroes.

Azar Macan: (( Yeah, we'll have plenty of fights anyways ))

Forge: (( Also what the balls is with the lower right corner? ))

Faiz: (( I'm a cartographer! ))

Mechalomaniac: (( Imban being silly ))

Mechalomaniac: (( Or Fleed being Silly ))

Imban: (( that was 555s. ))

Threden: (( HERE THERE BE (s)DRAGONS(/s) TYGERS ))

Imban: (( Lavos nudges all of the heroes into the new map, Monastery: Outdoors, with its spikes. ))

Forge: (( How did you do that anyway? ))

Faiz: (( L-L-LOCKDOWN ))

Imban: (( They should form up just south of Lavosban. ))

Serra: (( And it loaded surprisingly fast! ))

Threden: (( Well, it's a simple map ))

Faiz: (( Draw tool, text tool. ))

Imban: (( Yeah, these are fanmade maps *for* MapTool / other VTT software, rather than just artsy maps poorly converted for MapTool by me ))

Imban: (( So they'll load faster ))

Imban:

The monastery is surrounded by a 50-foot-tall outer stone wall with a massive set of stone double doors set into it.

Imban:

I lost my icon!

Imban:

The doors are closed, but look like they couldn't be locked, so you could probably push them open.

Imban:

You also spot smoke rising from the courtyard, behind the walls.

Forge: (( Fleed has created a monster ))

Imban:

While you were sent to warn the monks, fires in the courtyard would be... unusual.

Faiz:

UH... SO.

Threden:

ANALYSIS: Threat within monastary.

Faiz:

SMOKE IS... SMOKE IS BAD. THERE. RIGHT?

Serra:

"I take it the courtyard should... not be on fire, right?"

Adric Kain:

Perhaps we're too late

* Serra nods.

Forge: (( Being a Monk class, would I have any insight about a monastery? ))

Imban: (( Of what sort? ))

Azar Macan:

It seems so...

Osaou:

Bwarar...

Forge: (( Just how they operate, what's usual and what's not ))

Imban: (( You'd know that they would usually not just set fires in the courtyard for no good reason. ))

Imban: (( So it's definitely not normal. ))

Forge: (( I can roll Insight if necessary ))

Imban: (( I mean unless they were FIRE MONKS. But these aren't. ))

Forge: (( Fair enough ))

Adric Kain:

Well, let's take a look inside?

Forge:

Indeed.

Imban:

Threden pushes the gate ajar and walks in.

Imban:

Near the gate, you see three bonfires burning, where gray and green-skinned savages cook haunches of meat that look suspiciously like arms and legs.

Forge:

Indeed.

Forge: (( I like how it shows me Forge's icon when I'm not impersonating! ))

Adric Kain:

That's disgusting.

Faiz:

BUT PRACTICAL.

Azar Macan: (( oh hey look more dudes I can stare to death ))

* Forge cracks his knuckles slowly.

Azar Macan: (( I wish I could CHANCE STEP and murder tham all ))

Azar Macan: (( them* ))

Forge:

I do not normally enjoy killing, but I believe you will be an exception.

Faiz: (( Back in a moment. ))

* Orc Raider 1 turns.

Orc Raider 1:

Orc Drudge 4:

Raaaagh!

Azar Macan: (( look raven meat is nothing like chicken ))

Threden:

OBSERVATION: This unit does not contain meat-based substances.

Serra:

"I think not! Let's put an end to this twisted idea of a feast!"
