Strange Aeons: Lovecraftian Affair [DMOOCH]

[lostsole31]

R1T17: Flair moves in, once again chanting the pseudo-Celestial that powered his magic. Again, as before, everyone feels the complementary ferocity (even brutality) that complements the draconic blessing that Maeni gave to sharpen one's combat awareness and bravery.

Spoiler: Flair

In Flair's mind, he hears a voice he hasn't heard for a couple days. "I hope I didn't scare you with that ... insight ... a few minutes ago. It's just that you recently deviated from one of the most common fail-points in memory. Good on you and yours."

R1T16: Brother Jaume, you have added combat awareness, ferocity, vitality, and an awe-inspiring quarterstaff. Dorn asked you to bomb the haunt (you haven't detected) to the south with positive energy. What do you do?

Corbin, you can post as well, since IRL I mentioned you were next...

R1T16: Brother Jaume moves to the south to look for the haunt. Other than lots of chalk sketches attached to the wall, he doesn't notice anything out of the ordinary.

R1T15: Corbin is broken from his contemplation by all the sudden action."Haunt, what haunt, where!?" Deciding that "south" is definitely not where he wants to be, he heads towards the sound of battle and takes an opportune shot, hitting the flat-footed O1 in the left elbow for 6. Unfortunately, the concealment in the room from the background yellow haze keeps Corbin from scoring a really sweet shot. He doesn't reload quite yet, waiting to get a better sense of the battlefield and what might be needed.

R1T8: The mist that was billowing out of O1's mouth and going outside stops as he rises to his feet and takes a swing at Nadya.

R1T7: Jens, you still have the demonic creature on your shoulder, giving you baleful - but effective - advice. You are still invigorated. The collective is up (sans Brother Jaume), but telepathy is currently inactive. What do you do?

R1T7: Struggling to see through the mist, Jens moves to get a clear shoot on O2 but tries to keep his distance while doing so. Somewhat worried that O2 will run up and smack him, Jens makes a decision to follow a piece of advice from the demonic creature on his shoulder. He feels at his connection to the stone and earth around him, and pulls on it harder than he has before to thicken his defence of stone with a pop and flash of mental pain it works. The effects are noticeable and immediate as earth and dirt extrude from his eyes like tears, his ears, mouth, fingernails and toenails. Stone, earth, and dust around the room surges towards Jens, most of it thickening the layer around his flesh, but much of it slithers about his body like a living thing.

With this new rush of power, Jens raises a hand towards O2 and orders to stones to strike him, and they leap to comply. The is the first time Jens has ever gathered power in this manner, however, and his aim is wild as all of the stones go sailing past O2 and out the opening in the buidling.

R1T5: O3 stands, his mouth no longer pouring yellow mist to the outside, and he swings at Dorn.

He is now a little 11' tall, and finds himself pressed awkwardly against the rubble to the east. Maeni steps aside and sends sparks of electricity to the opponents surrounding Nadya, missing terribly.

R2T15: Attempting to keep the momentum up, Corbin rushes in to the fight with a vicious peck to the altered woman's neck for 6. Unfortunately, because Nadya is 5' off of the ground, he doesn't flank O2.

R2T8: O1 - whose clothing is almost all burnt away from electricty - comes around to confront Corbin and get to Nadya from another angle. As soon as he does so, he opens his mouth wide so mists start billowing out around him, creating an area similar to obscuring mist in a 10' area around him.

The mist coming from O1 makes you very sleepy. Roll a Will save.

R2T7: Having his sight obscured by the mist, Jens relies on luck and memory to target and fire needle-like stone shards once more at O2. He doesn't hear any kind of impact - not even stone against stone to signify a miss. He then moves out of the mist and behind the nearby pillar for cover.

R2T5: O3 opens his gaping mouth wider than you'd expect, as O1 did, so the 10' area around him is now like a concentrated obscuring mist!

R3T17: "Then get out; you've done enough." Flair says. In reality, he's still not sure what this Cody Rider person was trying to tell him during his brief visitations; either there was a needed frame of reference that Flair simply didn't understand, or that he had some compulsion to speak in strange words and vague notions. Either way, he didn't seem to bear any ill will, and it was mutual; if Cody was in danger talking to him, it's best he get himself to safety.

As for the fight, Flair took a step forward and found an oneirogen. He attempts a kick to its jaw, doing his best to keep his magic running, but misses.

R3T16: Brother Jaume doesn’t notice the approach of his companion Maeni from out of the mist until as the other reaches out to shake him. BJ reflexively swings his staff up to a guard position before relaxing as he recognizes the newcomer. “Whoa! Don’t sneak up on me like that! I thought you were an oneirogen....Let’s get back to the fight! These pictures are interesting but harmless enough.”

BJ grasps his holy symbol even as the sharp prongs of the antlers dig into his palm. A globe of force appears around his head as he strides towards the sound of battle, quaterstaff at the ready.

R3T15: Corbin, your crossbow is unloaded. All three enemies are visible to you (but have concealment). Nadya said something to you previously. What do you do?

R3T15: "Oh, Right, pretty sneaky!" Corbin drops his crossbow and tackles into a nearby enemy, trying to heavy him bodily off the edge. O3 tries to swing at Corbin, but fails so badly that he seems kind of battered by the frenzied attempt. Meanwhile, Corbin finds that the oneirogen is surprisingly matched with him for power, speed, and combat skill, but being heavier than Corbin, the tengu is unable to toss the man off the building.

R3T8: O1 swings at the newcomer to the melee, Brother Jaume, but overextends and the monk simply plants his staff for the man's head to thwack onto, dazing him.

Brother Jaume, your spell is unable to keep out the insidious nature of the mists which permeate whatever constitutes a membrane for your magic. Roll a Will save.

R3T7: Trying to focus, Jens wants to fire off another shot. But with all of the yellow mist keeping him from a good target and worries about friendly fire, he delays.

R3T5: O3 opens his mouth, and yellow mist billows out. Dorn resists the drowsy effect, but now Corbin has to deal with this again from a different oneirogen.

Corbin, roll a Will save.

R4T21: Maeni moves away from the haunted wall, and takes cover behind Brother Jaume, whom she finds in the cloud spewed by one of the oneirogens. Maeni no longer feels the strange sensation she resisted from the fluttering pictures, nor is she so close to a spewing oneirogen that she feels sleepy.

R4T19: Dorn mutters a prayer to Torag and then gives in to his orgiastic battle style. His first attack is foiled by the mist, and the second attack misses entirely.

R4T18: O2 opens up her mouth to now fill a 10' radius around herself with mist as well.

Corbin, roll a Will save or fall asleep!

R4T16: Brother Jaume’s suddenly larger quarterstaff swishes through the yellow mists, hopefully meeting with O1’s head. And meet it does, with the first strike hitting for 18. The second strike is almost foiled by the mist, but the monk corrects and strikes O1 in the head again for 11. Amazingly, O1 - dazed from before - obviously doesn't register any pain as he is still standing.

R4T7: Not wanting to reenter the sleep inducing fog, Jens sighs and decided to reestablish collective communication while preparing to defend himself from threats. He gathers power creating a display of earth and stone in a radius 20ft from himself and he prepares to form it into a weapon to defend himself. He then contacts the collective.

R5T28: Though her idea was inspired, it didn't seem to do much before. So, Nadya changes her tactic. Brother Jaume and Corbin can see her concentrating on some point past O2 that only she can see (or convinces herself she can see, what with the mist and all). But O2 dogs her defensive concentration to the point that Nadya gives up whatever it was she was trying to do. She then steps out of view of Brother Jaume and Corbin.

"That's a good tactic!" transmits Dorn. "Seeing as you only have to pop the spell on yourself while you stand in safety, and Jens can redistribute the healing energy. Or, did I get that wrong, Jens?"

Dorn goes for a single, more accurate strike this time, but he just isn't used to this size (he was raised by dwarves to fight giants, not be one, after all).

R5T18: O2 steps a little further into the room to get away from the edge of the building, not realizing that she would put herself so close to the massive monk. Still, the oneirogen seems nonplussed in doing so.

Brother Jaume, roll a Will save vs. O2's sleepy-sauce!

She swings at Corbin, completely missing. Her second strike is against the giant grocer, and she clips him in the stomach for 3 (min). Though he was definitely hit, the strike didn't really cause Brother Jaume any pain (vigor).

"Come nearby and tell if you want some healing!"

R6T19: Dorn wants this to end now, so gives into his onslaught. His first attack proves enough, however, as he nails O3 in the head to create a cerebral edema for 13 + 3 nonlethal, enough to drop him. He is unable to stop his battle furor, and yet breaks only stone - the mist foiling his next attack. Still, O3 is down, and the mists stop gushing from his mouth.

R6T7: "What was that sound?" Jens asks aloud while waiting to see if combat is over.

R6T6: Chanting is heard from the hallway to the west. Maeni doesn't see anything through the area that isn't part of the fog effect still extant from the oneirogens. However, Flair & Nadya both notice that a cultist was trying to use the fog to sneak up on them (she is adjacent to both heroes). She may possibly think she is hidden still.

End Round 6, Begin Round 7 ...

R7T28: "We have a cultist here!" Nadya calls. She then breathes out line of electricity that shoots down to the southwest, hitting the column to in that direction, and the cultist woman takes a mere 1 electricity as she dodges with incredible reflexes, far in excess of any of the other cultists you've met thus far (perhaps with the exception of the Bag Lady).

As your thoughts are overwhelmed but you are unable to make heads or tails of anything, a part of you wonders if you made a very bad call. You feel your confidence waning. Meanwhile, there is a female cultist directly to what you think is west of you. She was trying to make a stealthy approach when you noticed her silhouette.
