The Thunder Below - IC

[Savannah]

Your visionThe woman floats above a deep pit in an underground room, her tattoos giving her an unsettling appearance. She chants and gestures, and as she does so the form of an ancient orc appears, superimposed over her. The two continue to chant, when suddenly a light flashes from the pit, and you catch a glimpse of something moving. Something big.

You wake up, but the feeling of dread from the vision does not fade. You feel as if there is somewhere you need to be, and you set out to follow that feeling. Eventually, you meet up with three others, all following the same vision, and come to the small, peaceful town of Sarwin.

You have been traveling with your companions for a few days, not quite sure where your vision was leading you. Towards evening, it became clear that you were headed towards Sarwin, a small, peaceful hamlet. You are approaching it from the northeast, along a small trail through the thick woods. The last light of the setting sun illuminates the hamlet as you finally exit the woods and catch sight of your destination.

Sarwin is in ruins; it's clear that it suffered a recent attack. Scorch marks scar the buildings and ground, and several of the buildings have collapsed. You see no signs of life, not even bodies.

Darren

The wind carries a certain music, as this fey steps across the debris and seeks the dead. Singing a soft song, high, lonely, calm, he holds his Long blade out as he picks the path. Nodding to his companions, he holds his head in respect...

" Visions of Dreaming;
Wanton Curiousity;
Death for the child, his mother and father;
To walk the shadows is a fate for the dead... "

" Tis' curious. Shall we move on? "

"Indeed." - Zerran shortly responded. The puzzle has been bugging him for quite some time - sometimes, he felt that his companions were a burden, but he still understood that they were pieces of a puzzle and they can't be thrown away. Deep in thinking, the truenamer kept on walking.

Oray Wornran

"Perhaps... but first, a few prayers and a good meal; if you'd gather round...."

With that, Oray waits a moment to see who will choose to gather today, then begins her normal routine, setting an orange prism rotating about her head, manipulating her prayer beads for a moment, muttering a few prayers for herself, and the fallen. She then gives out an inspiring sermon, leaving everyone feeling Vigorous and full of the Law. Once done with that, she Summons a feast for everyone. Those who are familiar with the practices of spells easily note that she works a few into her prayers, Sermon, and routines ... Endure Elements, Undetectable Alignment, Persistent Detect Magic, and Persistent Find Traps in her personal prayers; a Persistent Mass Lesser Vigor in and a Persistent Shield of Law into her sermon ... which appears to be why she asks her companions to gather round, as they don't have much range ... and the Feast is a Heroes' Feast, Extended to last all day. When she is done, she stows her Orange Prism.

Zerran, still with the same thinking face as he had before, enjoys the meal. "Thank you for the meal, Oray. Shall we continue now?" - he said, standing up and observing his companions.

Sweet, buffs applied to the sheet. Will save is good for me in particular. :smallbiggrin:

[Jack_Simth]

Oray Wornran

"Oh, certainly. It's just generally better to be fortified with prayer and a good meal before venturing into the unknown. I'll keep an eye out for traps." With that, Oray takes a few moments to scan the area for magic, then begins searching, stopping every sixty feet to check for magic again.


DM (Mechanical stuff):

Actions: Concentrate on Persistent Detect Magic; check ahead, behind, left, right, up, and down - three rounds on each, to locate all magical auras, unless the first round determines that there's no magic in that arc - then starts Searching for traps (+21 modifier, taking ten, for a total of 31) as she goes, making sure to check the five-foot square in front of her for traps prior to stepping into it. When she reaches the end of the area she's cleared of magic, she repeats the procedure from the beginning.

Everyone wants to keep the healer around, especially when it also means they've got a reasonable set of buffs. Do keep in mind, though: They're named bonuses, for the most part - which means the +4 Resistance and +4 Deflection from Shield of Law don't stack with your Cloak of Resistance or Ring of Protection (assuming you have one of each, anyway) ... really, the biggest gain there is the protection from mental effects... although the +1 Moral bonus to saves from Heroes' Feast will stack with most things, and everyone loves Fast Healing 1. Oray doesn't neglect her role as the party healer.

Jan

As the sun sets low behind the hamlet Jan slips his goggles down over his eyes. The smokey, black lenses hide his eyes but he does not stumble. Picking some food out of his teeth, he sheathes his dagger and crouches in the woodline. He watches Oray for a minute. That dwarf will take forever. He shakes his head and whispers "I'm going to check it out."


Sneaking into the middle of the village, Darkvision from the goggles.

[Savannah]

The village consists, or rather consisted, of about 36 buildings. The largest buildings are a trading post ("Aaron's General Store"), a church of Pelor, a mill, and a two-storied combination inn and tavern ("The Hawk and Mouse"). The rest are simple cottages. Scorch marks mar many of the walls and the ground, and several of the cottages have partially or fully collapsed.

Darren As it turns out, you do remember quite a few stories and facts about the area.

Sarwin was founded nearly 600 years ago by a small group of powerful explorers who also constructed the nearby Sarwin Castle. The village sprung up overnight when two married wizards, Annah and Zebulahr Sarwin, and their followers settled in the remote region. With their magic and followers, they defeated the uncoordinated hordes of orcs and giants that attached the region after every spring thaw. In addition, the frequent earthquakes that the region suffered virtually stopped after the Sarwins arrived.

Sarwin Castle itself is powerfully defended against attack, due to the work of its founders. Rumors hold that ancient allegiances with powers form the Elemental Plane of Air have allowed the Sarwins to recruit aid from that plane in crafting the defenses of the castle.

The youngest Sarwin child, a gifted and precocious girl named Arezi, vanished from the castle three years ago. The Sarwins spared no expense in their attempts so find her, but ultimately were forced to give her up for lost. Almetha Sarwin, Arezi's mother, was particularly brokenhearted about this development and rumor holds that she is slowly descending into some sort of terrible madness.

Zerran From your readings, you remember the following:

In addition, looking over the village, you suspect that a localized earthquake is responsible for the collapsed buildings.

Oray Where are you searching?

Jan The village is eerily quiet. Glancing around, you see no signs of life. You don't even see any bodies, not even bodies of animals.

DMInitially along paths likely traveled: the main gate, entrances to any buildings that look interesting, and so on; attackers who clean up the bodies may leave some surprises for people who might be coming by, even though it's more likely the work of some form of spawning undead, or a necromancer wanting materials. A trap is not something I'm going to immediately discount, however, without further evidence. However, in the process, she's also checking the areas for auras - and the leftover Dim auras (see Detect Magic (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/detectMagic.htm)) are still interesting, and will give clues as to what happened. If she consistently finds no traps and no magic, after checking the village entrance and the notable buildings, she'll start looking for other things (broken arrow shafts and arrowheads, used sling bullets, burned spell components, that kind of thing), especially in places where people would be likely to congregate in an emergency (the named buildings, really - starting with the one that looks like it was sturdiest prior to the devastation - thickest walls, or even stone walls - usually either the church or the mill, for fairly obvious reasons).

[Savannah]

Oray There's not really a wall around the town, but checking along the main road and the doors of the major buildings reveals no lingering magic, nor any traps.

[Critical]

"Well, looks like Sarwins took a day off." - Zerran says, observing the village, or, rather, the remains of the village with a thinking look. "Lets go and see if we can find any survivors."

[Chambers]

Jan

No people...no animals. Everyone just up and vanish? Jan walks over and sits down on the steps leading up to the inn. Something fierce came to this village, something powerful to burn everything like it is.

He picks up a rock and tosses it into the inn. This place is a ghost town.

Oray nods and makes a gesture, vanishing from easy view. Invisibly, she then says "So... nothing of particular note out here... any particular favorite buildings? I partial to the old tavern, myself. There's usually at least a few people in such places, and if a battle was fought, that's where it's expected to be the sloppiest, and thus, best for clues."

Following the others, singing a calling song, the Fey simply holds a hand up and shrugs. " A Mother's broken heart may have failed the town. Perhaps we should simply move to the town's centre. I will sing a greater song of calling, to see if anything lives. What do you say? "

OOC
I will move into the town's middle and use Fascinate, if noone objects.

Oray shrugs, forgetting for a moment that she can't be readily seen. "Eh, no harm in trying."

[Savannah]

Jan You find very little where you are, however you do find a large splash of blood against the wall of one of the cottages.

Darren's music calls out to any survivors, but no one responds.

Everyone:Here's a rough map of the town:
http://a.imageshack.us/img823/7249/sarwin.png

C = church, I = inn, S = store, M = mill. The road to the NE is where you came from, and the road to the W leads to Sarwin castle.

Now that you have moved into the town, you can see that the mill is one of the most destroyed buildings.

[Chambers]

Jan

There's too little blood, not enough tracks. Whatever took these people had to be magical. He nods to his companions. That's your specialty, not mine. He cranes his head, eying the roofs. I'll hop up, see if I can't get a better view.

Standing up off the steps he takes a few quick strides towards the cottage next to the inn before leaping in the air. Landing on top of the cottage he pauses and then jumps across the gap between it and the inn. Crouching on a landing, he scrambles to climb up to the roof of the inn. Gazing out at the ruined village he looks for any sign of life. It's quiet...too quiet.

...And with the closing notes of a beautiful melody, Darren lowers his sword and bows his head. " Nothing living here. This be a grave place... "

"...I have no doubt that this was no mere raid. I suspect magic, I suspect the mother of the daughter. I am above all shaken by the lack of life, not even an animal. "

Darren leaps after his companion, taking it slow and winning out.

Oray Wornran

Oray considers for a moment. "I suppose they could have just retreated to the castle, if they had warning that whatever sacked the town was coming. That would explain the lack of bodies. Hmm... well, I'm going to go sift through the remains of the inn for a bit."

With that, Oray begins searching the inn in with intensity, looking for anything of value as loot or clues.

[Critical]

"Magical? How about the occuring earthquakes that Sarwins have been trying to stop? Though, the reason they stopped must be magical, indeed..." - Zerran says, thinking and observing the village. - "How about we go to the mill first, since it seems to be the most destroyed building?"

[Savannah]

Anyone going into the inn As soon as you enter, you recognize the telltale stink of decaying flesh wafting down from upstairs.

Oray, do you want to search the upstairs or the downstairs?

Anyone going to the millThe mill is quite ruined. Search and knowledge checks if you want to try to determine what happened to it.

[Critical]

Zerran starts carefully searching the mill for clues on how it was destroyed.


Knowledge: whatever - [roll0]

[Savannah]

Zerran The mill definitely took heavy acid damage during the battle. Buried under part of the rubble, you find a heavily corroded dagger.

[Critical]

"Hmm, interesting..." - Zerran says, taking the dagger and inspecting it more closely. He then decides it'd be best to return to the ones who got to the inn. "The mill took heavy acid damage. What do you have here?" - he inquires.

[Jack_Simth]

DM:
Oray, do you want to search the upstairs or the downstairs?Both. Whatever happened here is already resolved; at this point in time, there's no indication of any reason to rush. So both, starting with what's most easily accessible (the ground floor), then going upstairs. Downstairs, too, if there's a cellar or some such. Checking for magic along the way, and taking time to search for traps, trap-like hazards, anything interesting, and anything valuable (taking 10).

[Cadian 9th]

Darren


He lightfoots his way to the inn with Oray, instantly smelling the mark of death.
" Death, thou hast hidden yourself? " He says, nodding to Oray. " Shall we? " he says, searching both.

Be looking out as Oray searches.

[Savannah]

Everyone in the inn Downstairs, Oray discovers blood and part of a hand under a chair. It looks like they came from an orc.

Upstairs, the smell is stronger. Tracking it down reveals a hidden closet in one of the rooms. Inside is a badly decayed body of a halfling woman wearing studded leather armor and carrying a bow.

[Jack_Simth]

Oray Wornran

Oray takes a moment to examine the body in detail, seeing if she can discern what killed the archer. She then also checks the body for magic, and loots the body. "Well... you're past being able to make use of that armor or weapon, and it'll fetch a few coins."

The stench from the upstairs wafting up to Jan, he wrinkles his nose and drops down to the ground, hopping off lower ledges and obstructions before hitting the ground. Dusting himself off, he says "You said the mill was burned by acid? Strange...it looks like the town was hit by fire.", waving his hand at the scorch marks.

[Critical]

"Why not both?" - Zerran says in a thinking tone, while taking a step into the room and observing it. - "An orc hand? Here? Hmm, did someone want to leave... a hint?"

[Cadian 9th]

Darren

" I don't like this. I'll be going outside, if that's alright with you. " Says Darren diplomatically. He feels contrained by the indoors, and without entertainment, be it battle or people, to distract him, he finds it quite unbearable.

"Let me see the inn. I'm a professional, after all." - Zerran says, taking his time to observe the inn.


Take 20 on search to observe the inn(29 total) and all kinds of knowledges rolled if needed.

[Jack_Simth]

Oray Wornran

Oray continues her examination and looting of the corpse. "This is the first body we've found. Others either ran while they were live, or were removed. A corpse in a place of hiding suggests the possibility of poison, disease, or continuing damage spells such as Melf's Acid Arrow. The more we know about what killed this person, the better of an idea we have of what to guard ourselves against. And there might be a few coins to be hand... this person clearly doesn't have a need for them anymore."

Oray She died approximately three days ago, most likely from inhaled poison.

Both her shortbow and an amulet around her neck are magical. Beyond that, she's wearing masterwork studded leather armor, 20 arrows, a dagger, and a pouch of [roll0] gp. All items are sized small, as she's a halfling.

"Some blood here, but otherwise, nothing new." - Zerran announced, thinking to himself what could've happened to the town.

Oray Wornran

Still invisible from her ring, Oray completes her examination, opens her portable hole, tosses the halfling's loot into her portable hole (for later examination and dispersal), then closes the portable hole, putting it away. "Three days. That's how long it's been. This corpse puts 'inhaled poison' on the list of things the attackers use. The other buildings went down by fire and acid, you say? Well, now we know three things that the attackers used, at least. Shall we proceed to the castle as the sun sets? It's the most likely place for people to congregate for defense, so there's a decent chance there will be more answers there for what's going on."

Zerran complies and follows Oray to the castle too.

[Savannah]

You head out along the main road. It's about 30' wide, and on the south side a steep cliff separates it from the forest below, while on the north side the mountains rise up sharply. The cliff that it's built into is around 500' high, and the path winds slowly upward towards the castle. You can't see the castle at the moment; the thick fir trees screen it from view.

Over grass and over stone,
And under mountains in the moon. "

He sings, a song for the road by a certain halfling.

I really, really hate to do this, but I've had some real life stuff come up, and I don't think I can continue this game right now. I'm really sorry; if I start it up again, I'll be sure to let you know (and you'll have guaranteed spots).

Ok. I have no reason to delete subscriptions, so if you'll just PM me when things resume, or post in the IC or OOC threads, that'd be great.
