[Tue May 5 19:38:47 2009] : Julia Libra: We are all sorry here, Craig, our commisserations
[Tue May 5 19:38:54 2009] : Fenton: Sam thinks if we'd seen the paractise partner ( brought up on a farm) last time he would have put her down then
[Tue May 5 19:39:14 2009] : Fenton: But apparently she was seen by a junior idiot
[Tue May 5 19:40:45 2009] : Julia Libra: I think it's just terrible that Phoebe had to suffer longer than necessary :(
[Tue May 5 19:41:33 2009] : Fenton: Yeah
[Tue May 5 19:41:52 2009] : Fenton: She honestly perked up for about a week after they took teeth out

[Tue May 5 20:42:42 2009] : DM: ooc a ray?
[Tue May 5 20:43:00 2009] : DM: Rotting flesh hisses and the missile hits.
[Tue May 5 20:43:07 2009] : Ennil: ooc on the furthest one.
[Tue May 5 20:43:17 2009] : Ennil: ooc yeah, I didn't know how to describe it ;-)
[Tue May 5 20:43:53 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc I see it as some kind of magical firecracker
[Tue May 5 20:44:19 2009] : DM: ooc "...a small ball of red light zips out of her hands and flys unerringly towards the zombie"
[Tue May 5 20:44:36 2009] : DM: The zombies continue to cower in place.
[Tue May 5 20:44:39 2009] : DM: Julia?
[Tue May 5 20:45:08 2009] : DM: They're 40 and 60 ft away from you
[Tue May 5 20:45:47 2009] : Julia Libra: Julia runs at the nearest creature and attacks it
[Tue May 5 20:45:49 2009] : Julia Libra: Longsword (base): [1d20+5] => [13,5] = (18) ===> Damage: [1d8+3] => [2,3] = (5)

[Tue May 5 20:46:16 2009] : DM: A glancing blow to the arm.
[Tue May 5 20:46:21 2009] : DM: Murle?
[Tue May 5 20:47:19 2009] : Murle: Murle takes a probably pointless shot at the nearest one
[Tue May 5 20:47:21 2009] : Murle: Crossbow, light (base): [1d20+4] => [7,4] = (11) ===> Damage: [1d6+0] => [2,0] = (2)
[Tue May 5 20:47:22 2009] : Fenton: (whispering): I can see the confusing thing on the turn chart... it's every creature with less then 1/2 my level of HD that is destroyed
[Tue May 5 20:47:57 2009] : whispering to Fenton, That's what I thought it was but, yeah, the wording on the chart isn't right.
[Tue May 5 20:47:59 2009] : Murle: done
[Tue May 5 20:48:05 2009] : DM: Hit, but no damage.
[Tue May 5 20:48:12 2009] : DM: Fenton?
[Tue May 5 20:49:07 2009] : Fenton: ooc how close to the nearest one?
[Tue May 5 20:49:30 2009] : DM: About 70 ft
[Tue May 5 20:50:07 2009] : Fenton: Fenton double moves 40ft towards it
[Tue May 5 20:50:09 2009] : Fenton: Done
[Tue May 5 20:50:29 2009] : Fenton: ooc err make that 60 ft - I'm not in heavy armour
[Tue May 5 20:50:49 2009] : DM: Ennil?
[Tue May 5 20:51:00 2009] : Ennil: ooc one left? or two?
[Tue May 5 20:51:05 2009] : DM: two left
[Tue May 5 20:51:27 2009] : Fenton: (whispering): Rewritten the text on the chart
[Tue May 5 20:51:52 2009] : whispering to Fenton, Ta
[Tue May 5 20:51:54 2009] : Ennil: Ennil incants again and a small ball of red light zips out of her hands and strikes the farthest zombie.
[Tue May 5 20:52:01 2009] : Ennil: Ennil casts...: 01 - Magic Missile: 1 missile that does 1d4+1 damage => [1d4+1] => [4,1] = (5)

[Tue May 5 20:52:34 2009] : DM: It's looking quite damage now, ribs and other bones sticking from it's flesh.
[Tue May 5 20:52:47 2009] : DM: They continue to cower where they are.
[Tue May 5 20:52:50 2009] : DM: Julia?
[Tue May 5 20:53:11 2009] : Julia Libra: Julia invokes the name of Kraft before she swings her sword again
[Tue May 5 20:53:13 2009] : Julia Libra: Longsword (base): [1d20+5] => [1,5] = (6) ===> Damage: [1d8+3] => [3,3] = (6)
[Tue May 5 20:53:26 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc And she misses the mark totally :(
[Tue May 5 20:53:33 2009] : Julia Libra: Done
[Tue May 5 20:53:40 2009] : DM: Murle?
[Tue May 5 20:54:06 2009] : Murle: Murle takes another probably pointless shot at the nearest one

[Tue May 5 20:54:20 2009] : Murle: done
[Tue May 5 20:54:30 2009] : DM: Fenton?
[Tue May 5 20:54:50 2009] : Murle: "Guys, you want to give me a shout when you've got this sorted?"

[Tue May 5 20:55:17 2009] : Fenton: Done
[Tue May 5 20:56:01 2009] : DM: A reasonable strike, the zombie no longer shrinks back in fear from you and its dead eyes stare at you.
[Tue May 5 20:56:05 2009] : DM: Ennil?
[Tue May 5 20:57:51 2009] : whispering to Ennil, Your turn
[Tue May 5 20:59:27 2009] : Ennil: ooc how far?
[Tue May 5 20:59:27 2009] : Fenton: ooc hello?

[Tue May 5 21:01:45 2009] : Julia Libra: Done
[Tue May 5 21:02:17 2009] : DM: Julia chops deep into the zombies grey flesh, severing the spine and destroying it.
[Tue May 5 21:02:33 2009] : DM: Murle? You want to just pass?
[Tue May 5 21:02:35 2009] : Fenton: "Good show Julia!"
[Tue May 5 21:03:03 2009] : Murle: Murle waits to see what happens
[Tue May 5 21:03:05 2009] : Murle: done
[Tue May 5 21:03:21 2009] : DM: Fenton? The last zombie is cowering 10 ft away
[Tue May 5 21:03:31 2009] : DM: It's nearly destroyed.
[Tue May 5 21:03:49 2009] : Julia Libra: "My Lord Kraft has aided me"
[Tue May 5 21:03:52 2009] : Fenton: Fenton strides over and smashes it with his sword
[Tue May 5 21:03:54 2009] : Fenton: Sword, bastard (base): [1d20+5] => [19,5] = (24) ===> Damage: [1d10+3] => [9,3] = (12)

[Tue May 5 21:03:57 2009] : Julia Libra: Julia beams proudly
[Tue May 5 21:04:15 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc That should do it :)
[Tue May 5 21:04:18 2009] : DM: Fenton shears the zombies head clean off its head.
[Tue May 5 21:04:50 2009] : Fenton: "Aha, back to death foul beast"
[Tue May 5 21:04:56 2009] : Murle: "Well that was very well handled.!
[Tue May 5 21:05:00 2009] : Murle: "Well that was very well handled."
[Tue May 5 21:05:13 2009] : Murle: "Although I was completely useless"
[Tue May 5 21:05:35 2009] : DM: ooc 225 XP each
[Tue May 5 21:05:51 2009] : Murle: "Maybe I should get myself a big club to hit things like that with"
[Tue May 5 21:05:54 2009] : Fenton: "Well, moving forwards Murle, what could have helped you in this battle?"
[Tue May 5 21:07:03 2009] : Murle: "A comfortable seat to watch you in action would've been nice"
[Tue May 5 21:07:20 2009] : DM: At this point Fenton remembers that skeletons are vulnerable only to bludgeoning damage and zombies resist everything but slashing.
[Tue May 5 21:08:13 2009] : Fenton: "Would another weapon have helped you? it slipped my mind before, but skeletons are more vulnerable to bludgeoning weapons, and zombies to slashing ones"
[Tue May 5 21:08:46 2009] : Ennil: "Leave me the zombies next time then"
[Tue May 5 21:08:50 2009] : Fenton: "I guess that your crossbow bolts skipped stright through both of them without harming them?"
[Tue May 5 21:09:08 2009] : Murle: "Thats what it seems like"
[Tue May 5 21:09:16 2009] : Fenton: ooc I have morningstar for dealing with skeletons
[Tue May 5 21:09:55 2009] : Fenton: "Well, we all learn new lessons every battle. I have never seen Tyr's power flow through me so well"
[Tue May 5 21:10:33 2009] : Murle: "Yes that was very impressive"
[Tue May 5 21:10:50 2009] : Julia Libra: "I might think to invest in a bludgeoning weapon"
[Tue May 5 21:11:32 2009] : Fenton: "I have a morningstar for such occasions"
[Tue May 5 21:11:51 2009] : Fenton: Fenton sheathes his sword and shows the weapon
[Tue May 5 21:12:05 2009] : Murle: "That could be a good buy"
[Tue May 5 21:12:24 2009] : Fenton: "Though I am not as proficient with it as my sword, which is the chosen weapon of Tyr the one-handed"
[Tue May 5 21:12:29 2009] : Fenton: Morningstar (base): [1d20+4] => [1,4] = (5) ===> Damage: [1d8+3] => [2,3] = (5)
[Tue May 5 21:12:43 2009] : Fenton: ooc and rolls a one ;)
[Tue May 5 21:12:59 2009] : Fenton: Fenton drops the weapon in his display
[Tue May 5 21:13:00 2009] : DM: Fenton flourishes his morningstar, fumbles and nearly drops it.
[Tue May 5 21:13:08 2009] : Fenton: ooc LOL
[Tue May 5 21:13:31 2009] : Julia Libra: "I can see why it's not your *favourite* weapon"
[Tue May 5 21:14:05 2009] : Murle: "Hmmm"
[Tue May 5 21:14:09 2009] : Murle: ooc brb
[Tue May 5 21:16:01 2009] : Fenton: Fenton picks it up and blushes a little
[Tue May 5 21:16:07 2009] : Fenton: "Indeed"
[Tue May 5 21:16:10 2009] : DM: What next?
[Tue May 5 21:16:33 2009] : Ennil: "Well it seems we've rid the graveyard of the infestation, but what is with the church?"
[Tue May 5 21:16:39 2009] : Ennil: "Do you think there are more in there?"
[Tue May 5 21:16:44 2009] : Fenton: "Shall we examine the rest of the graveyard to see if there is a reason why the dead are rising?"
[Tue May 5 21:16:48 2009] : Ennil: "And where did those come from anyway?"
[Tue May 5 21:17:12 2009] : Julia Libra: "Finding a reason would be the surest way to a definite solution to the problem of investation ..."
[Tue May 5 21:17:15 2009] : Fenton: "We can also see if the corpses have anything to help pay our way"
[Tue May 5 21:17:27 2009] : Julia Libra: Julia starts rambling a bit
[Tue May 5 21:18:02 2009] : DM: The corpses don't have anything on them except for the rusty scimitars of the three skeletons.
[Tue May 5 21:19:05 2009] : DM: The church doors are shut.
[Tue May 5 21:19:28 2009] : Fenton: "It's an odd thing to bury them with"
[Tue May 5 21:19:52 2009] : Murle: ooc back
[Tue May 5 21:20:00 2009] : Fenton: "Murle, do you think you could examine the disturbed graves? You have good eyesight"
[Tue May 5 21:20:05 2009] : DM: ooc players shouldn't point out DM oversights and plot holes ;)
[Tue May 5 21:20:12 2009] : Julia Libra: "I wouldn't know about burial rituals here, it might be the done thing"
[Tue May 5 21:20:27 2009] : Murle: Murle has a poke around
[Tue May 5 21:20:31 2009] : Murle: Search Skill Check: [1d20+7] => [6,7] = (13)
[Tue May 5 21:20:42 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc Who would dare do that, DM? \o/
[Tue May 5 21:20:55 2009] : Murle: ooc actually, take 20 on that
[Tue May 5 21:21:03 2009] : Murle: ooc we've plenty of time
[Tue May 5 21:21:25 2009] : DM: Murle picks through the graves, digging through the mud and earth and decaying coffins.
[Tue May 5 21:21:41 2009] : Murle: ooc lovely
[Tue May 5 21:22:36 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc Got to love the descriptions :D
[Tue May 5 21:23:00 2009] : Murle: ooc oh yes. Very scenic
[Tue May 5 21:23:05 2009] : Fenton: ooc I bet he smells charming ;-)
[Tue May 5 21:23:24 2009] : Fenton: Fenton is glad he asked Murle to look
[Tue May 5 21:23:40 2009] : Fenton: "Sorry it's such a messy job Murle"
[Tue May 5 21:23:55 2009] : Murle: ooc he'll be looking for hugs! :)
[Tue May 5 21:24:43 2009] : whispering to Murle, After 10 minutes of searching you find a amulet on a broken chain. Its tingles with magic.
[Tue May 5 21:25:56 2009] : Murle: Murle tosses a filthy amulet out of one of the graves
[Tue May 5 21:26:01 2009] : Murle: "What do you make of that?"
[Tue May 5 21:26:16 2009] : Murle: (whispering): I think he's a little too honest :)
[Tue May 5 21:27:14 2009] : Julia Libra: "Let me see"
[Tue May 5 21:27:25 2009] : Julia Libra: Julia studies the amulet
[Tue May 5 21:27:32 2009] : Murle: "And can I get a hand out of this hole please?"
[Tue May 5 21:27:39 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc Knowledge check?
[Tue May 5 21:27:50 2009] : Fenton: Fenton helps Murle out
[Tue May 5 21:28:02 2009] : Julia Libra: Julia absentmindedly lends Murle a hand while not taking her eyes of the amulet
[Tue May 5 21:28:05 2009] : Murle: "Thanks Fenton"
[Tue May 5 21:28:22 2009] : DM: The amulet has the appearance of a rough piece of bark of an oak tree. Holding it in your hand you feel it enhancing the toughness of your skin.
[Tue May 5 21:28:22 2009] : Murle: "It was making my fingers tingle when I picked it up"
[Tue May 5 21:28:33 2009] : DM: ooc amulet of natural armour +1
[Tue May 5 21:28:35 2009] : Fenton: "I can see if it is magical, but to futher foind out its powers if it is is a job for a wizard"
[Tue May 5 21:28:56 2009] : DM: ooc auto-identifying magic items is something I've taken from 4e.
[Tue May 5 21:28:56 2009] : Fenton: Casts - Level 0: : Detect Magic: Reveals magical auras in a 60 ft. cone. (Duration: Concentration up to 20 min.)
[Tue May 5 21:29:11 2009] : Murle: ooc woot!
[Tue May 5 21:29:18 2009] : Ennil: ooc w00t?
[Tue May 5 21:29:20 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc Nice!
[Tue May 5 21:29:37 2009] : Fenton: ooc ah - /me thinks he probably won't be needing detect magic much
[Tue May 5 21:30:03 2009] : Murle: ooc I've got it anyway
[Tue May 5 21:30:05 2009] : Fenton: ooc I always got the impression that in 3.x you were supposed to play with items to see what they do
[Tue May 5 21:31:12 2009] : DM: ooc I like the idea of that for particularly unique or intelligent items.
[Tue May 5 21:31:57 2009] : DM: What now?
[Tue May 5 21:32:39 2009] : Murle: "Did the notice board say who talk to after cleaning up the trouble?"
[Tue May 5 21:32:41 2009] : Fenton: "Can we try to get into the church?"
[Tue May 5 21:33:09 2009] : Julia Libra: "It seems to be locked. Does anyone have a key?"
[Tue May 5 21:33:36 2009] : Murle: "Let me have a look"
[Tue May 5 21:33:40 2009] : Murle: Open Lock Skill Check: [1d20+4] => [14,4] = (18)
[Tue May 5 21:34:19 2009] : DM: You easily pick the simple lock but the door does not open. It's either barred from the inside or there's something in the way.
[Tue May 5 21:34:59 2009] : Murle: "Its unlocked, but there's something else in the way"
[Tue May 5 21:35:10 2009] : Julia Libra: "Can't open it?"
[Tue May 5 21:35:20 2009] : Julia Libra: Julia pushes at the door
[Tue May 5 21:35:27 2009] : Julia Libra: Str check: [1d20+3] => [10,3] = (13)
[Tue May 5 21:35:30 2009] : Ennil: "brred?"
[Tue May 5 21:35:32 2009] : DM: It doesn't open.
[Tue May 5 21:35:36 2009] : Murle: "Can any of you see in through a window?"
[Tue May 5 21:35:39 2009] : Ennil: "barrede maybe ?"
[Tue May 5 21:35:43 2009] : Fenton: Str check: [1d20+3] => [14,3] = (17)
[Tue May 5 21:35:53 2009] : Ennil: ooc never mind my typing
[Tue May 5 21:35:57 2009] : DM: The doors are solid and hardly move.
[Tue May 5 21:36:18 2009] : Ennil: "Well, isn't there a window we could actually use to get in?"
[Tue May 5 21:37:06 2009] : Fenton: "It would be a strange chuch that did not have them"
[Tue May 5 21:37:10 2009] : DM: Peering through the grimy and broken windows you see that the benches for the congregation have been pushed to one side and in their place are four bedrolls and a mound of equipment.
[Tue May 5 21:37:17 2009] : Fenton: "Though I'm not sure that they always open"
[Tue May 5 21:37:51 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc Don't most church doors open outwardly anyway?
[Tue May 5 21:38:04 2009] : DM: A stack of planks and poles, coils of rope, two small barrels, several lanterns and three medium size crates about 1 m cube.
[Tue May 5 21:38:17 2009] : Murle: ooc I've not been in enough to know :)
[Tue May 5 21:38:27 2009] : Julia Libra: "It would seem this building has habitants"
[Tue May 5 21:39:20 2009] : DM: There are many tracks in the dusty ground leading from the door, the equipment and the stone altar.
[Tue May 5 21:39:44 2009] : DM: The altar has been pushed aside and you see a worn set of steps decending into the gloom.
[Tue May 5 21:40:15 2009] : Fenton: "I'm guessing the trouble stems from down those steps"
[Tue May 5 21:40:29 2009] : Fenton: "So how do we get in?"
[Tue May 5 21:40:59 2009] : Murle: "Break a window? Its a pretty decrepid church anyway"
[Tue May 5 21:41:11 2009] : Ennil: "Are we fit to go against 4 creatures we know nothing about?"
[Tue May 5 21:41:12 2009] : DM: The windows, whilst narrow are wide enough to climb through.
[Tue May 5 21:41:13 2009] : Julia Libra: "Can't we try to open one first?"
[Tue May 5 21:42:07 2009] : DM: The windows don't seem to have latches.
[Tue May 5 21:44:15 2009] : DM: ooc windows don't open themselves...
[Tue May 5 21:44:24 2009] : Murle: ooc are any of the breaks small enough for a gnome to fit?
[Tue May 5 21:44:58 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc LOL
[Tue May 5 21:45:36 2009] : DM: The windows are diamond pattern leaded windows and the broken panes are only large enough for a rat to get through.
[Tue May 5 21:46:01 2009] : Murle: "Look, we either break a window or walk back to town"
[Tue May 5 21:46:39 2009] : Fenton: "Break a window"
[Tue May 5 21:46:58 2009] : Ennil: ooc bbiaf
[Tue May 5 21:46:59 2009] : Julia Libra: "Yes, break one"
[Tue May 5 21:47:00 2009] : Fenton: "That's my opinion"
[Tue May 5 21:47:56 2009] : Murle: "Murle picks up a stone and throws it at the most broken window"
[Tue May 5 21:48:12 2009] : Murle: Murle picks up a stone and throws it at the most broken window
[Tue May 5 21:48:19 2009] : DM: Murle smashes a window, the broken glass crashing to the floor.
[Tue May 5 21:48:36 2009] : DM: You can all fit through the resulting gap.
[Tue May 5 21:49:06 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc All at once? ;)
[Tue May 5 21:49:39 2009] : Fenton: "OK, let's go!
[Tue May 5 21:49:40 2009] : Julia Libra: Julia climbs in and draws her sword
[Tue May 5 21:49:43 2009] : Murle: "I was going to have a look around quietly, but I suppose anyone would've heard that glass"
[Tue May 5 21:50:57 2009] : Fenton: "Unless they were deaf..."
[Tue May 5 21:51:02 2009] : DM: Once inside your get a better look at all the equipment. It seems whoever this stuff is was a well prepared.
[Tue May 5 21:51:10 2009] : Fenton: "But then quietness wouldn't matter anyway"
[Tue May 5 21:51:27 2009] : Murle: "What have we got here?"
[Tue May 5 21:51:50 2009] : DM: There are enough rations for four people for two weeks. Enough lamp oil for several weeks. Pick axes, shovels, hammers and other tools.
[Tue May 5 21:51:57 2009] : Murle: Murle has a look around the equipment
[Tue May 5 21:52:07 2009] : DM: There's also a scroll case.
[Tue May 5 21:52:15 2009] : Fenton: "Adventurer gear, or religious?"
[Tue May 5 21:52:32 2009] : DM: Inside are three scrolls.
[Tue May 5 21:52:39 2009] : Julia Libra: Julia uses her mind to search for evil presences
[Tue May 5 21:52:50 2009] : DM: ooc range?
[Tue May 5 21:53:18 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc 60 ft. I believe
[Tue May 5 21:54:24 2009] : Murle: Murle tries to detect any magical auras
[Tue May 5 21:54:33 2009] : DM: The scrolls are shatter, knock and spider climb.
[Tue May 5 21:54:37 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc I'll use Detect evil until I start doing something that needs my concentration (like fighting)
[Tue May 5 21:54:59 2009] : DM: There's nothing close by that's either magical or evil.
[Tue May 5 21:55:14 2009] : Fenton: "Those don't look like spells that I could use"
[Tue May 5 21:55:21 2009] : Ennil: ooc sorry emma was yelling
[Tue May 5 21:55:52 2009] : Fenton: ooc NP to me
[Tue May 5 21:56:29 2009] : Murle: "I'll hold on to those then"
[Tue May 5 21:56:43 2009] : Murle: Murle tucks the scroll case in his backpack
[Tue May 5 21:56:45 2009] : Ennil: "strange"
[Tue May 5 21:56:53 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc Tell her to hush it: mommy is playing now and can't come to you ;)
[Tue May 5 21:57:00 2009] : Ennil: "these people seem to have settled here"
[Tue May 5 21:57:11 2009] : Julia Libra: "Why would you take them? That's stealing"
[Tue May 5 21:57:31 2009] : Murle: "Finders keepers. Thats the rules."
[Tue May 5 21:58:44 2009] : Murle: "If I left my stuff lying around then I wouldn't be surprised to lose it"
[Tue May 5 21:58:59 2009] : Julia Libra: "You are stealing and there are rules for that. You know somebody owns it and thought it safe to leave it here."
[Tue May 5 21:59:09 2009] : Fenton: "And if you left it in a locked room?"
[Tue May 5 21:59:16 2009] : Murle: "Well they were wrong"
[Tue May 5 22:00:23 2009] : Julia Libra: "They were only wrong because you came around"
[Tue May 5 22:00:35 2009] : Murle: "Serve me right for leaving stuff with only a mediocre lock protecting it"
[Tue May 5 22:00:46 2009] : Julia Libra: Julia turns around, disgusted with Murle
[Tue May 5 22:01:59 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc Has Darvin returned? ;)
[Tue May 5 22:02:11 2009] : whispering to Murle, Don't overdo the thief personality
[Tue May 5 22:02:12 2009] : Murle: ooc ow, that hurts!
[Tue May 5 22:02:37 2009] : Murle: (whispering): I wasn't. Really didn't see a problem with lifting them
[Tue May 5 22:03:01 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc LOL
[Tue May 5 22:03:06 2009] : Ennil: "Julia, why did we break in in the first place, if you're going to lecture Murle?"
[Tue May 5 22:03:23 2009] : whispering to Murle, I don't either. But the other players do so it's best to go with their reactions.
[Tue May 5 22:03:25 2009] : Ennil: "Let's be consistent here"
[Tue May 5 22:03:33 2009] : Fenton: "Well, if these folk are up to no goo, as it would seem, then their property is forfeit"
[Tue May 5 22:03:34 2009] : Julia Libra: "To do good, not to steal. Plus, I'm personally prepared to pay for any damages"
[Tue May 5 22:03:34 2009] : Ennil: "And i'm sure he'll return the stuff if they're nice enough to ask"
[Tue May 5 22:03:48 2009] : Fenton: "Such makes a good statement to the populace"
[Tue May 5 22:03:59 2009] : Fenton: "And is just"
[Tue May 5 22:04:17 2009] : Julia Libra: "But will they even ask if they don't know he's taken it? Forfeit is one thing, taking in advance is another"
[Tue May 5 22:04:30 2009] : Murle: "Well if we run into them and they aren't up to no good then I'll hand them over. Hows that sound?"
[Tue May 5 22:04:45 2009] : Ennil: "so we agree. Now, maybe before we engage further in this debate, we should try and really find out what those people are up to?"
[Tue May 5 22:04:53 2009] : Ennil: "Sounds good to me Murle"
[Tue May 5 22:04:55 2009] : Murle: ooc sorry, on the phone diagnosing a DNS prblem on Vista so I'm a little distracted
[Tue May 5 22:05:00 2009] : Ennil: "And I'll keep you to your word"
[Tue May 5 22:05:01 2009] : Fenton: "Justice will be done - to one and all. If Murle has some coming his way, it will catch him up"
[Tue May 5 22:05:15 2009] : Ennil: Ennil smiles at Murle
[Tue May 5 22:05:39 2009] : Fenton: ooc Julia isn't sounding too chaotic to me
[Tue May 5 22:05:41 2009] : Julia Libra: "That would be a solution, I guess"
[Tue May 5 22:06:24 2009] : Murle: Murle subtly rolls his eyes
[Tue May 5 22:06:30 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc She may not be lawful, but she's good. And stealing is considered not good :)
[Tue May 5 22:06:55 2009] : Murle: ooc depends who you're stealing from :P
[Tue May 5 22:07:06 2009] : Fenton: ooc depends if you see it as stealing or liberation of wealth
[Tue May 5 22:07:21 2009] : Fenton: ooc chaotic folk have an odd standpoint IMO
[Tue May 5 22:07:24 2009] : Ennil: ooc and both Fenton and I are lawful, I think.
[Tue May 5 22:07:35 2009] : Fenton: ooc I'm neutral
[Tue May 5 22:07:47 2009] : Fenton: ooc my deity is lawful, so I lean that way
[Tue May 5 22:07:54 2009] : Murle: ooc murle is actually NG, so maybe wouldn't have taken them at all... hmmm
[Tue May 5 22:08:18 2009] : Fenton: "So shall we descend?"
[Tue May 5 22:08:29 2009] : Ennil: "Sounds good to me"
[Tue May 5 22:08:42 2009] : Julia Libra: "Yes, let's see what's happening here"
[Tue May 5 22:09:43 2009] : DM: You climb down the old, worn steps into the darkness.
[Tue May 5 22:10:07 2009] : DM: The air is cool and damp with a musty smell.
[Tue May 5 22:10:16 2009] : DM: ooc what light are people using?
[Tue May 5 22:11:26 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc I've got a lantern
[Tue May 5 22:11:40 2009] : DM: ooc okay
[Tue May 5 22:11:50 2009] : Fenton: ooc umm
[Tue May 5 22:12:12 2009] : DM: The steps decend about 20 ft into the ground and end in a stone lined passageway.
[Tue May 5 22:12:15 2009] : Fenton: ooc I'll stick to Julias lantern light
[Tue May 5 22:13:24 2009] : Murle: ooc I've got low light vision, so I can see very well by lantern light
[Tue May 5 22:13:29 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc Anything to see up ahead? And do I sense any evil presences?
[Tue May 5 22:13:31 2009] : DM: The ceiling has been proped in places with new wooden beams and planks and at intervals, hanging from nails, are burned out lanterns, empty of oil.
[Tue May 5 22:13:52 2009] : DM: You near a faint sobbing ahead.
[Tue May 5 22:14:14 2009] : Murle: "Thats one sound I wasn't expecting down here"
[Tue May 5 22:15:30 2009] : Julia Libra: "Neither did I"
[Tue May 5 22:15:50 2009] : Fenton: "Strange indeed"
[Tue May 5 22:15:52 2009] : Julia Libra: Julia advances carefully
[Tue May 5 22:16:05 2009] : DM: As you approach you see someone seated on the floor. He's cradling his left arm and sobbing quietly. You hear the words: "The light. should have stayed in the light." Repeated endlessly.
[Tue May 5 22:16:42 2009] : Fenton: "Fenton looks on, wondering who he is
[Tue May 5 22:16:46 2009] : Murle: Murle approaches carefully
[Tue May 5 22:16:49 2009] : Fenton: Fenton looks on, wondering who he is
[Tue May 5 22:17:28 2009] : Julia Libra: "Are you alright? Can we help you?"
[Tue May 5 22:19:17 2009] : Julia Libra: Julia goes over to the person
[Tue May 5 22:19:31 2009] : DM: You get near him, he turns and looks at you with his one good eye. "The light! Stay in the light!" he sobs. Where is left eye should nothing but a empty socket crying tears of blood. Maggots writh in the dead flesh of the left side of his face.
[Tue May 5 22:20:11 2009] : Murle: Murle retches at the sight of this
[Tue May 5 22:20:14 2009] : DM: His left hand is nothing but a skeleton with only tatters of gray, putrid flesh.
[Tue May 5 22:20:15 2009] : Fenton: Knowledge: Religion Skill Check: [1d20+5] => [11,5] = (16)
[Tue May 5 22:20:34 2009] : DM: The smell of death and decay chokes you.
[Tue May 5 22:20:40 2009] : Fenton: "This may be the cause of our problems"
[Tue May 5 22:20:53 2009] : Fenton: ooc understatement ;-)
[Tue May 5 22:20:55 2009] : Ennil: Ennil looks away, disgusted
[Tue May 5 22:21:05 2009] : Julia Libra: Julia gags
[Tue May 5 22:21:29 2009] : Julia Libra: "That is disgusting"
[Tue May 5 22:21:33 2009] : DM: The man is dying but from what cause you cannot determine.
[Tue May 5 22:22:57 2009] : Fenton: "I don't think that there is much we can do for him"
[Tue May 5 22:23:10 2009] : Fenton: "Let's move on for now"
[Tue May 5 22:23:14 2009] : DM: Beyond where the man sits dying, as a chamber with a high ceiling. There is an aura of great evil from within it.
[Tue May 5 22:23:53 2009] : DM: On the far wall above the exit passageway is a large white crystal, dimly glowing with a faint white light.
[Tue May 5 22:23:56 2009] : Julia Libra: "That room! It is terrible. Evil radiates from it"
[Tue May 5 22:25:21 2009] : Fenton: "Let's hope that the foe beyond is not too great for us. We may need to beat a hasty retreat and return with more powerful priests and paladins"
[Tue May 5 22:25:25 2009] : whispering to Julia Libra, You sense a dozen evil presenses within the room, They move about randomly.
[Tue May 5 22:25:28 2009] : Murle: ooc any knowledge checks?
[Tue May 5 22:25:43 2009] : DM: ooc arcana

[Tue May 5 22:26:33 2009] : Ennil: Knowledge: Arcana Skill Check: [1d20+1] => [18,1] = (19)
[Tue May 5 22:26:54 2009] : whispering to Murle, Ennil, The crystal is a lantern crystal, they're charged with magical energy and emit a bright light. This crystal is mostly drained.
[Tue May 5 22:27:19 2009] : Ennil: "Those are crystal that generate light"
[Tue May 5 22:27:24 2009] : Ennil: "but that one is almost drained"
[Tue May 5 22:27:35 2009] : Murle: "I think I have heard of these - The crystal is a lantern crystal, they're charged with magical energy and emit a bright light."
[Tue May 5 22:27:37 2009] : Julia Libra: "There's at least a dozen presences there, all evil"
[Tue May 5 22:27:51 2009] : Julia Libra: Knowledge: Arcana Skill Check: Untrained
[Tue May 5 22:28:21 2009] : Murle: "Do you think if we targetted spells at that crystal it would get brighter?"
[Tue May 5 22:28:33 2009] : Ennil: "giving it more energy?"
[Tue May 5 22:28:45 2009] : Murle: "Maybe"
[Tue May 5 22:29:22 2009] : Murle: "How far away do you think it is?"
[Tue May 5 22:29:46 2009] : DM: The chamber is 40 ft long and 30 ft wide. (see map)
[Tue May 5 22:31:08 2009] : Murle: "Shall I try a simple experiment?"
[Tue May 5 22:31:55 2009] : DM: ooc yes!
[Tue May 5 22:31:58 2009] : Julia Libra: "Just be careful to not annoy those in the room"
[Tue May 5 22:32:04 2009] : Fenton: "It probably can't hurt"
[Tue May 5 22:32:08 2009] : Murle: "I thought if I targetted a simple cantrip at it we could see what happened."
[Tue May 5 22:32:36 2009] : Murle: Murle sends 4 Dancing Lights at the crystal
[Tue May 5 22:32:54 2009] : Murle: and watches closely
[Tue May 5 22:33:31 2009] : DM: The crystal absorbs the magical energy from the spells and it flares brightly, shining a bright beam of light down the centre of the chamber.
[Tue May 5 22:34:01 2009] : Murle: "Ahh"
[Tue May 5 22:34:11 2009] : Julia Libra: Julia watches for anything or anyone coming out of the chamber"
[Tue May 5 22:34:26 2009] : DM: The sprits are disturbed and whisper like a rustle of dead leaves. "aaaah. the light, it burns."
[Tue May 5 22:34:29 2009] : Ennil: "Nice"
[Tue May 5 22:34:37 2009] : Fenton: "OK, I have some Orisons and some minor spells"
[Tue May 5 22:34:37 2009] : Murle: "Again?"
[Tue May 5 22:34:55 2009] : Fenton: "No, save your spells for now"
[Tue May 5 22:35:10 2009] : DM: The cantrip only sustains the light for a brief moment and it fades again in 30 seconds.
[Tue May 5 22:35:18 2009] : Fenton: "I guess we need to lure them into the area"
[Tue May 5 22:35:20 2009] : DM: The whispering quietens.
[Tue May 5 22:35:33 2009] : Murle: "These are but minor tricks"
[Tue May 5 22:35:57 2009] : Murle: "So you think we run in, lure them out and then turn on the light?"
[Tue May 5 22:35:59 2009] : DM: ooc I've marked the beam on the map.
[Tue May 5 22:36:12 2009] : Julia Libra: "And alas, of minor duration"
[Tue May 5 22:36:28 2009] : Fenton: ooc where is the crystal?
[Tue May 5 22:36:58 2009] : DM: The crystal is mounted on the lintel of the doorway on the far side.
[Tue May 5 22:37:01 2009] : Murle: "I cant replicate that a few more times today"
[Tue May 5 22:37:42 2009] : Fenton: "I have some more powerful spells, but I may need to touch the crystal"
[Tue May 5 22:38:53 2009] : Murle: "I can hit it from afar"
[Tue May 5 22:38:59 2009] : whispering to Julia Libra, With your detect evil you could tell that when the crystal was activated all the spirits in the chamber retreated away from it and cowered by the walls.
[Tue May 5 22:39:14 2009] : Murle: "Are we agreed?"
[Tue May 5 22:39:23 2009] : DM: ooc I think Murle meant "I can replicate..."
[Tue May 5 22:40:04 2009] : Julia Libra: "The light really seems to hurt them, if it's lit they retreat as far away from the entrance as they can go"
[Tue May 5 22:40:05 2009] : Murle: ooc oh yes sorry
[Tue May 5 22:40:16 2009] : Murle: "I can replicate that a few more times today"
[Tue May 5 22:40:49 2009] : Julia Libra: "So luring them out and then lighting the crystal should really help us"
[Tue May 5 22:41:09 2009] : Ennil: "Ican choose whatever spell, but my power has been strained by the bony things outside"
[Tue May 5 22:41:09 2009] : DM: What are you luring? I don't follow.
[Tue May 5 22:41:14 2009] : Murle: "If it doesn't, we're in the same boat as this guy"
[Tue May 5 22:41:36 2009] : Murle: ooc we were going to run in, wait for the things to attack, then turn on the lights
[Tue May 5 22:41:47 2009] : Fenton: ooc the monsters into this cahamber??
[Tue May 5 22:42:06 2009] : Fenton: ooc you'd think that of all words I could spell chamber!
[Tue May 5 22:42:15 2009] : Ennil: ooc LOL
[Tue May 5 22:42:23 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc LOL
[Tue May 5 22:42:28 2009] : Murle: ooc lol
[Tue May 5 22:42:40 2009] : Murle: ooc that the posh way to say it
[Tue May 5 22:44:01 2009] : DM: As you've been discussing your options and experimenting you notice that the dead flesh on the dying man has been affecting more and more of the previously healthy tissue.
[Tue May 5 22:44:44 2009] : Julia Libra: "He seems to be dying rapidly. Is there nothing we can do?"
[Tue May 5 22:44:49 2009] : Murle: "Do you think this guy is going to turn into one of those this we just fought?"
[Tue May 5 22:44:59 2009] : Murle: ooc ...things we just...
[Tue May 5 22:45:05 2009] : Fenton: "Maybe"
[Tue May 5 22:45:18 2009] : Fenton: "Or whatever is in the next chamber"
[Tue May 5 22:46:39 2009] : Murle: "No time like the present"
[Tue May 5 22:46:53 2009] : Julia Libra: "So I go on and try to have them follow me out?"
[Tue May 5 22:47:08 2009] : Julia Libra: Julia advances to the chamber, sword in hand
[Tue May 5 22:47:15 2009] : Murle: "Try and get them to come into the area that lights up"
[Tue May 5 22:47:27 2009] : Murle: Murle readies himself
[Tue May 5 22:47:36 2009] : Fenton: "I'll come too Julia"
[Tue May 5 22:47:51 2009] : Fenton: Fenton walks with Julia
[Tue May 5 22:48:12 2009] : Julia Libra: "Just don't scare the away if we want them to come into the light"
[Tue May 5 22:48:20 2009] : Julia Libra: them
[Tue May 5 22:48:37 2009] : DM: The spirits become visible as Julias presence awakens their hungry, they're thin, whispy black tendrils with a value humanoid shape, thin arms reach out and touch Julia.
[Tue May 5 22:49:01 2009] : Fenton: "I planned to pretend to try to turn them"
[Tue May 5 22:49:03 2009] : whispering to Julia Libra, You feel an immediate chill where you're touch.
[Tue May 5 22:49:24 2009] : DM: What are you going to do, Julia.
[Tue May 5 22:49:49 2009] : DM: Anyone else doing anything?
[Tue May 5 22:49:51 2009] : Fenton: ooc how far dis she walk, I intended to move closer to see what they did
[Tue May 5 22:49:54 2009] : Julia Libra: "They make me feel cold"
[Tue May 5 22:50:17 2009] : Fenton: "Don't let them touch you"
[Tue May 5 22:50:21 2009] : Fenton: Knowledge: Religion Skill Check: [1d20+5] => [9,5] = (14)
[Tue May 5 22:50:25 2009] : whispering to Julia Libra, The arm where you were touched grows numb.
[Tue May 5 22:50:26 2009] : Julia Libra: Julia retreats, walking backwards towards the entrance
[Tue May 5 22:50:44 2009] : Julia Libra: "My arm, it's feeling numb"
[Tue May 5 22:50:49 2009] : Julia Libra: Knowledge: Religion Skill Check: [1d20+4] => [5,4] = (9)
[Tue May 5 22:50:51 2009] : Ennil: ooc getting closer to the light area, butnot into it
[Tue May 5 22:51:12 2009] : Murle: Murle casts his dancing lights at the crystal
[Tue May 5 22:51:21 2009] : DM: The spirits follow reaching out with their arms. They stop when Julia exits the chamber and they fade.
[Tue May 5 22:51:49 2009] : Julia Libra: Julia returns to the chamber, just barely entering it
[Tue May 5 22:52:01 2009] : Fenton: ooc I'm confused... is the chamber beyond the crystal?
[Tue May 5 22:52:04 2009] : DM: The light blazes from the crystal and again the spirits retreat from the light.
[Tue May 5 22:52:09 2009] : Murle: ooc I didn't realised she was coming back out
[Tue May 5 22:52:28 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc Didn't even know I was in until the DM told me ;)
[Tue May 5 22:52:31 2009] : whispering to Julia Libra, Taking a look at your arm?
[Tue May 5 22:53:03 2009] : Julia Libra: "They're fleeing from the light again"
[Tue May 5 22:53:07 2009] : Ennil: ok, we need minis!
[Tue May 5 22:53:12 2009] : Ennil: ooc oops ooc
[Tue May 5 22:53:13 2009] : DM: ooc ah. Sorry. I misread. I though you advanced into the chamber.
[Tue May 5 22:53:32 2009] : Julia Libra: Julia comes out again and looks at her arm where she was touched
[Tue May 5 22:53:44 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc np, I was going in anyway
[Tue May 5 22:54:36 2009] : DM: The skin is pale and gray and numb. You feel the numbness travelling up your arm and down towards your fingers.
[Tue May 5 22:54:43 2009] : Ennil: "There is still too much light for them to venture out, as I understand it"
[Tue May 5 22:54:44 2009] : Fenton: "So how do we get them into here?"
[Tue May 5 22:55:01 2009] : DM: You have been afflicted with whatever has striken the dying man.
[Tue May 5 22:55:02 2009] : Fenton: "Murle, maybe the light will help Julia's arm?"
[Tue May 5 22:55:22 2009] : Murle: "Good idea"
[Tue May 5 22:55:25 2009] : Fenton: ooc is he still alive?
[Tue May 5 22:55:34 2009] : DM: ooc Am I not explaining things right? The spirits are in the chamber with the crystal and the beam of light.
[Tue May 5 22:55:47 2009] : Fenton: "Shall we drag him in too?"
[Tue May 5 22:56:00 2009] : Ennil: ooc ok, can we stop and recap please? :)
[Tue May 5 22:56:05 2009] : Ennil: ooc I think there's much confusion.
[Tue May 5 22:56:06 2009] : Fenton: ooc err, I thought that we were in there and the spirits were beyond
[Tue May 5 22:56:19 2009] : Ennil: ooc /me thought like Craig
[Tue May 5 22:56:22 2009] : Julia Libra: "This looks and feels weird, guys, better avoid those creatures as best we can"
[Tue May 5 22:56:33 2009] : DM: The man is still alive, from the rate of decay you guess he might have another day before he's wholy consumed. It's likely he will be dead before then.
[Tue May 5 22:56:34 2009] : Murle: ooc I saw it as them were in the alcove-y bits top and bottom
[Tue May 5 22:56:59 2009] : Murle: ooc we're off to the left, crystal on the right
[Tue May 5 22:57:31 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc I saw it as us being in the corridor from the stairs, but not being in the chamber in the middle
[Tue May 5 22:58:06 2009] : DM: ooc does that help?
[Tue May 5 22:58:15 2009] : Ennil: ooc YES!
[Tue May 5 22:58:31 2009] : Murle: oco thats kinda what I thought
[Tue May 5 22:58:46 2009] : Ennil: ooc ok so Julia has gone into the chamber a bit. Where did the thingies retreat to when the light went on?
[Tue May 5 22:58:50 2009] : Ennil: tooc to the sides?
[Tue May 5 22:58:52 2009] : DM: ooc I think I killed Craig's OpenRPG again, though.
[Tue May 5 22:59:18 2009] : DM: When the light was on they all retreated to the walls to the left and right.
[Tue May 5 22:59:19 2009] : Murle: ooc lol

[Tue May 5 23:01:02 2009] : Ennil: ooc ok, can we call it quits fro tonight and use the time to fix Craig's OpenRPG, so that next week (when I'm not here :/) we can play with minis?
[Tue May 5 23:01:13 2009] : Julia Libra: ooc Now we know where we all are, we could continue without minis for a bit
