[2025/01/26 13:57] Andreas: hi creatures
[2025/01/26 13:57] Sonja Bikergrrl: think we expect Jassie... Rip, at the outside
[2025/01/26 13:58] Sonja Bikergrrl: found the map but why is everything X'd out?
[2025/01/26 13:58] Andreas: oh Sonja you look fluffier than usually
[2025/01/26 13:58] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me purrs "yyeessss......??"
[2025/01/26 13:59] Sapphire: map?
[2025/01/26 14:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: well, I need to place things in a logical manner and know where everything is
[2025/01/26 14:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: I don't make -everything- up on the fly ;)
[2025/01/26 14:01] Sonja Bikergrrl: and, time to get streaming!
[2025/01/26 14:02] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me bangs on things
[2025/01/26 14:02] Andreas: o_0
[2025/01/26 14:02] Kylie: /me pulls out comb wanting to run though Sonja kitty's fur
[2025/01/26 14:02] Sonja Bikergrrl: there we go. Enjoy!
[2025/01/26 14:02] Andreas: lol Layla
[2025/01/26 14:02] Sonja Bikergrrl: we'll wait to ten past for Jassie?
[2025/01/26 14:03] Sonja Bikergrrl: and I guess if you got questions before we kick off.. you got seven minutes
[2025/01/26 14:03] Sonja Bikergrrl: Not saying I'll -answer- 'em....
[2025/01/26 14:03] Andreas: omg, I've seen this situation in my dream few months ago.
[2025/01/26 14:04] Andreas: I remember "before we kick off ... you got seven minutes"
[2025/01/26 14:04] Sonja Bikergrrl: playing D&D with a furry Dm while funked up Greensleeves pla... Oh.
[2025/01/26 14:04] Sapphire: /me crosses their legs and listens to the squeak of leather pants
[2025/01/26 14:06] Andreas: do we have any plan to beat the Emberclaw?
[2025/01/26 14:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: I hope you do...
[2025/01/26 14:06] Andreas: shall we be careful? Or are we gonna be reckless?
[2025/01/26 14:06] Sapphire: my plan was to get to the dreamstone itself
[2025/01/26 14:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: although right now you got to live long enough to face him
[2025/01/26 14:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: an interesting plan, Sapphire
[2025/01/26 14:07] Andreas: dreamstone, well I can hide in a shadows and sneak as a thief. So that's maybe what I'm gonna do. Hide behind others ^_^
[2025/01/26 14:09] Sonja Bikergrrl: and Jassie is here, so... I guess we can start. Music is streaming, it's epic battle music, if you don't like it complain to Andreas, he suggested it ;)
[2025/01/26 14:10] Jassie: heywo
[2025/01/26 14:10] Andreas: I like it, it's cool. You can always pause the stream don't you? :)
[2025/01/26 14:10] Sonja Bikergrrl: But before we start! This is quite close to the end of the campaign, it's run for a year, I'm truely grateful for the encouragement and support I've got from you all.
[2025/01/26 14:11] Sonja Bikergrrl: you may have noticed I got a trophy with the campaign on it. Not sure if you'll survive what comes next, but I'd say you're all winners
[2025/01/26 14:12] Sonja Bikergrrl: Trophies for all! Display them proudly, or keep 'em in inventory
[2025/01/26 14:12] Jassie: oooo cool!
[2025/01/26 14:13] Sonja Bikergrrl: And with that said, time to say "GGGGGGGRRRRREEEEEEEEETTTTINNGSSS Adventurers! Welcome to the TPK ;)"
[2025/01/26 14:13] Andreas: nice, gonna display it in my cave
[2025/01/26 14:14] Sonja Bikergrrl: I think you finished... almost... the first level of the lair, and dispatched a bunch of kobolds.... and heard kobold voices singing from a nearby chamber up ahead
[2025/01/26 14:14] Sonja Bikergrrl: and with that recap out of the way... Mecha! What you doing?
[2025/01/26 14:15] Sonja Bikergrrl: (As I recall it, you're in the kobold living cave, a roughly 50' chamber. Passage straight ahead, and to one side, and a hole to another side.
[2025/01/26 14:16] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me tosses up the missing )
[2025/01/26 14:16] Mecha: I am going to keep an eye on things around us."Which way do we wanna go?" Also do we hear anything in any set direction?
[2025/01/26 14:17] Kylie: (for those that missed it https://gyazo.com/70c9966636f75d0a51d3f28d7187e9b1 )
[2025/01/26 14:17] Sonja Bikergrrl: Basically: Straight on, hole to the left, or right - from where the singing was coming from.
[2025/01/26 14:17] Sonja Bikergrrl: ha!
[2025/01/26 14:18] Andreas: /me if I'm you, I'd draw weapons and hide behind the corner of the passage and I pull the bow and shoot when I see them. When they're gonna move towards me you can surprise them from the side. What do you think?
[2025/01/26 14:18] Sonja Bikergrrl: Jassie?
[2025/01/26 14:18] Jassie: that u layla?
[2025/01/26 14:18] Sapphire: Emily's gaze looks over the kobold living caverns for anything useful or informative.
[2025/01/26 14:18] Mecha: I'm gonna ask the group. "Do we wanna follow the singing?" Sword already in hand
[2025/01/26 14:19] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire: dirty leathers, rocks, piles of greasy bones, wooden junk and filthy blankets
[2025/01/26 14:19] Jassie: hmmm my detect magic still doesnt feel anything right?
[2025/01/26 14:19] Sonja Bikergrrl: Either follow or stand to surprise 'em, I guess
[2025/01/26 14:19] Sonja Bikergrrl: Jassie: nothing magical that you can detect
[2025/01/26 14:19] Andreas: /me quiet please I may hear if they are moving towards us or not.
[2025/01/26 14:19] Kylie: I think we follow the singing we need the dreamstone
[2025/01/26 14:20] Sonja Bikergrrl: roll d100, Andreas
[2025/01/26 14:20] D10: Andreas rolls 4
[2025/01/26 14:20] Jassie: I follow along behind
[2025/01/26 14:21] Sonja Bikergrrl: Andreas: you hear nothing. Specifically, you know it is too quiet - it's the silence that comes right before a sudden attack
[2025/01/26 14:22] Sonja Bikergrrl: What you all doing?
[2025/01/26 14:23] Jassie: prepping for the attack
[2025/01/26 14:23] Andreas: /me we should take cover and get ready, it's way too quiet.
[2025/01/26 14:23] Jassie: shield up, if they jump out at us also
[2025/01/26 14:24] Sonja Bikergrrl: Kylie? Mecha? Sapphire?
[2025/01/26 14:24] Mecha: Agreed." Sword is drawn moving to the opposite side of the opening from Andreas that way both sides are covered
[2025/01/26 14:24] Sapphire: if the singing is approaching, getting behind the rocks for cover and checking for sharp stuff to throw. Like the weapons of the bolds we already dealt with
[2025/01/26 14:25] Andreas: /me pulls my bow, moving further from the passage, looking for a shadow or a corner to cover but with good view on the passage.
[2025/01/26 14:25] Kylie: I look around for advantages
[2025/01/26 14:26] Sonja Bikergrrl: From the passage way to one side, there's the sound of a door bursting open, and out run half a dozen of the kobolds, daggers raised high. You can see one is a chief, one a shaman, the others seem to be trusted leiutenants. All of them have a furious, determined look as they charge, screaming "EMBERCLAW! EMBERCLAW! EMBERCLAW!"
[2025/01/26 14:27] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mecha: what you doing?
[2025/01/26 14:27] Sonja Bikergrrl: they're charging out, so, you get to go before they hit you.
[2025/01/26 14:28] Jassie: if any get close, i'm gonna use my shield to like bash them back to keep the ranks up
[2025/01/26 14:28] Mecha: As the go past, going to swing the sword maybe cut one down as they go and get surprise
[2025/01/26 14:28] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20
[2025/01/26 14:28] Sonja Bikergrrl: +5 with strength and magic bonus, I think
[2025/01/26 14:28] D20: Mecha rolls 15
[2025/01/26 14:28] Sonja Bikergrrl: roll that d8
[2025/01/26 14:28] D8: Mecha rolls 6
[2025/01/26 14:28] Sapphire: half a dozen, one a chief, one a shaman... emily will chuck one of the sharp things at the Shaman to interrupt whatever they might try to cast.
[2025/01/26 14:29] Sonja Bikergrrl: A mighty blow indeed, easily enough to brutally slay the guy. Indeed there's a spray of blood and innards, but the guy just screams "EMBERCLAW!" and staggers on, dagger raised!
[2025/01/26 14:30] Sonja Bikergrrl: Jassie: going to bash with shield? Is warhammer not better?
[2025/01/26 14:31] Jassie: push back with so I can smack with the hammer
[2025/01/26 14:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20
[2025/01/26 14:31] Jassie: kinda keep the ranks
[2025/01/26 14:31] D20: Jassie rolls 2
[2025/01/26 14:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: ...
[2025/01/26 14:31] Jassie: gg thank you
[2025/01/26 14:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay
[2025/01/26 14:32] Sonja Bikergrrl: Kylie :)
[2025/01/26 14:32] Sonja Bikergrrl: what's Kylie going to do
[2025/01/26 14:32] Kylie: I go crazy with the lucky axe on the shouter to quiet him


Kylie & her Lucky Axe


[2025/01/26 14:32] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... d20
[2025/01/26 14:32] D20: Kylie rolls 12
[2025/01/26 14:32] Sonja Bikergrrl: although, they're all shouting
[2025/01/26 14:33] Sonja Bikergrrl: Hit! d6
[2025/01/26 14:33] D6: Kylie rolls 5
[2025/01/26 14:33] Kylie: the one that shouted after Emily hit
[2025/01/26 14:34] Sonja Bikergrrl: Another solid hit! Finally the guy goes down in another spray of blood
[2025/01/26 14:34] Sonja Bikergrrl: Andreas
[2025/01/26 14:34] Andreas: /me from the shadowy corner is aiming at the shamans head, ready to shoot an arrow.
[2025/01/26 14:34] Sonja Bikergrrl: bow? d20, you get two attacks with a bow, roll twice. Hitting same or different targets?
[2025/01/26 14:35] Andreas: same target, shaman
[2025/01/26 14:35] D20: Andreas rolls 19
[2025/01/26 14:35] D20: Andreas rolls 10
[2025/01/26 14:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: two hits!
[2025/01/26 14:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: roll d6 twice to see what you do
[2025/01/26 14:36] D6: Andreas rolls 4
[2025/01/26 14:36] D6: Andreas rolls 1
[2025/01/26 14:36] Sonja Bikergrrl: Despite having two arrows in his head and gurgling through blood, the little guy staggers on.
[2025/01/26 14:36] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire!
[2025/01/26 14:37] Sonja Bikergrrl: what are you throwing?
[2025/01/26 14:37] Sapphire: i imagine was able to find dagger, rock if not
[2025/01/26 14:37] Sonja Bikergrrl: roll d20
[2025/01/26 14:38] D20: Sapphire rolls 10
[2025/01/26 14:39] Sonja Bikergrrl: you imagine you hit. Roll d4!
[2025/01/26 14:41] D4: Sapphire rolls 4
[2025/01/26 14:41] Sapphire: DONK
[2025/01/26 14:41] Sonja Bikergrrl: worth waiting for, a solid HIT and a gout of blood... greviously wounded but not fatally.
[2025/01/26 14:42] Sonja Bikergrrl: One attacks Mecha, and Jassie, and Kylie
[2025/01/26 14:42] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 6
[2025/01/26 14:42] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 7
[2025/01/26 14:42] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 6
[2025/01/26 14:42] Jassie: well now i feel better about my 2
[2025/01/26 14:42] Sonja Bikergrrl: well, they can't hit for shit
[2025/01/26 14:42] Sonja Bikergrrl: the other two go for Kylie and Andreas
[2025/01/26 14:42] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 12
[2025/01/26 14:42] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 12
[2025/01/26 14:43] Sonja Bikergrrl: Nasty....
[2025/01/26 14:43] D4: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 1
[2025/01/26 14:43] Sonja Bikergrrl: it's but a scratch for Andreas.
[2025/01/26 14:44] Sonja Bikergrrl: New combat round! The one that was mortally wounded collapses and doesn't move again. Three are standing, plus one badly wounded one.
[2025/01/26 14:44] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mecha!
[2025/01/26 14:44] Mecha: Is the chieftan one still up?
[2025/01/26 14:45] Sonja Bikergrrl: he's literally hacked to pieces thanks to you and Kylie
[2025/01/26 14:45] Sonja Bikergrrl: so, no
[2025/01/26 14:45] Mecha: Then random goober it is swinging the sword, missing using the warhammer
[2025/01/26 14:45] D20: Mecha rolls 9
[2025/01/26 14:45] Sonja Bikergrrl: and you....
[2025/01/26 14:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: hit
[2025/01/26 14:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: d6
[2025/01/26 14:46] Mecha: d6? Last time was D8
[2025/01/26 14:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: or did you mean sword? d8
[2025/01/26 14:46] D8: Mecha rolls 5
[2025/01/26 14:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: Again a great spray of blood and innards, you know the guy is surely dead, but he gurgles and lunges back at you wildly
[2025/01/26 14:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: Jassie
[2025/01/26 14:47] Jassie: pushes that one back and bonk it
[2025/01/26 14:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20

[2025/01/26 14:47] D6: Jassie rolls 1
[2025/01/26 14:48] Jassie: thank you GG
[2025/01/26 14:48] Jassie: lol
[2025/01/26 14:48] Sonja Bikergrrl: You smack the one that got killed. Now he tumbles to the ground and twitches.
[2025/01/26 14:48] Jassie: for me something always has to roll bad
[2025/01/26 14:48] Sonja Bikergrrl: Kylie
[2025/01/26 14:48] Jassie: stomp on it
[2025/01/26 14:49] Kylie: Pounds foot in the dead corps that I killed waves axe like crazy and yells "Bring us the dreamstone or you will not live to have regrets!"
[2025/01/26 14:50] Sonja Bikergrrl: The kobolds bare teeth and they all attack Kylie. "We die for Emberclaw! And we shall take that one that dares insult our god with us! FOR EMBERCLAW!!!"
[2025/01/26 14:50] Sonja Bikergrrl: Andreas :)
[2025/01/26 14:51] Andreas: are there any kobolds still alive?
[2025/01/26 14:51] Sonja Bikergrrl: Three, one badly wounded.
[2025/01/26 14:51] Kylie: (the ones attacking me)
[2025/01/26 14:52] Andreas: /me aiming an arrow at the first of the two who are not wounded, aiming at head.
[2025/01/26 14:52] Andreas: /me gonna attack first and than second with the second turn.

[2025/01/26 14:53] D6: Andreas rolls 2
[2025/01/26 14:53] Andreas: today d6 is rolling against us
[2025/01/26 14:53] Sonja Bikergrrl: The kobold gets an arrow in the head and roars with pain. He is still attacking
[2025/01/26 14:53] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire!
[2025/01/26 14:53] Sapphire: are either of shamen or chief still up?
[2025/01/26 14:54] Sonja Bikergrrl: Hard to say, they're all fighting like mad dogs and are covered in blood. You're sure they're both down, though.
[2025/01/26 14:56] Jassie: relentless
[2025/01/26 14:56] Sapphire: does it look like I could move to the side and get into a flanking position that would help?
[2025/01/26 14:57] Sonja Bikergrrl: indeed so... quite fanatical
[2025/01/26 14:57] Sonja Bikergrrl: Could try; you can attack one with +2 to hit
[2025/01/26 14:57] Sapphire: that seems worth doing, and can use a second thrown dagger in that spot
[2025/01/26 14:58] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20
[2025/01/26 14:58] D20: Sapphire rolls 4
[2025/01/26 14:58] Sonja Bikergrrl: eh.
[2025/01/26 14:59] Sonja Bikergrrl: well, their turn!
[2025/01/26 14:59] Sonja Bikergrrl: they bellow "DEATH TO THE UNBELIEVER!" and stab at Kylie

[2025/01/26 15:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: one hits Kylie hard, one misses, the other trips over his feet.
[2025/01/26 15:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sounds about average
[2025/01/26 15:00] Jassie: well, they're very messed up so makes sense
[2025/01/26 15:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: too busy being single minded
[2025/01/26 15:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mecha!
[2025/01/26 15:01] Mecha: Going to grab one feom behind and try to repeatedly bash it into the wall.
[2025/01/26 15:01] D20: Mecha rolls 17
[2025/01/26 15:01] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mmm... d4
[2025/01/26 15:01] D4: Mecha rolls 4
[2025/01/26 15:02] Sonja Bikergrrl: You bash one to a bloody mess. Although you're sure you killed it, it still snarls and tries to snap at you.
[2025/01/26 15:02] Sonja Bikergrrl: Jassie!
[2025/01/26 15:04] Jassie: uppercuts one thatscoming close with my hammer

[2025/01/26 15:08] Sonja Bikergrrl: The spear gets rammed right through the guy, a blow that should kill him. But he's still up and fighting... and coughing up blood...
[2025/01/26 15:08] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire
[2025/01/26 15:08] Andreas: d6 is defo playing against us

[2025/01/26 15:11] Sapphire: the D has spoken
[2025/01/26 15:11] Kylie: if not dead very unhappy
[2025/01/26 15:11] Sonja Bikergrrl: You're sure that blow killed it, but it screams and continues attacking
[2025/01/26 15:11] Sonja Bikergrrl: 1 for Mecha...
[2025/01/26 15:11] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 19
[2025/01/26 15:11] D4: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 3
[2025/01/26 15:12] Sonja Bikergrrl: It twists and turns and snaps and stabs at Mecha.
[2025/01/26 15:12] Sonja Bikergrrl: and two for Kylie
[2025/01/26 15:12] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 18
[2025/01/26 15:12] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 1
[2025/01/26 15:12] Sonja Bikergrrl: oh my.
[2025/01/26 15:12] D4: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 2
[2025/01/26 15:12] Jassie: for god sakes
[2025/01/26 15:12] Sonja Bikergrrl: A rather hard hit, and one trips over it's feet
[2025/01/26 15:13] Sonja Bikergrrl: end of round.... next round... the mortally wounded kobolds finally succumb and collapse, limp and lifeless
[2025/01/26 15:13] Jassie: wow, so they fight when they die....
[2025/01/26 15:13] Sonja Bikergrrl: They are now all dead.
[2025/01/26 15:13] Jassie: fucking cult kobolds
[2025/01/26 15:14] Sonja Bikergrrl: They're fanatics... and worked up by their song into a fury
[2025/01/26 15:14] Sonja Bikergrrl: language! What would your deity say?
[2025/01/26 15:14] Sapphire: Emily yoinks the daggers for later throwing
[2025/01/26 15:14] Mecha: Searching the bodies
[2025/01/26 15:15] Jassie: says a prayer for them anyways
[2025/01/26 15:15] Andreas: /me "unbelievable, what a mess". Takes one of the kobold's swords.
[2025/01/26 15:15] Andreas: /me can I find and reuse any of the arrows?
[2025/01/26 15:16] Sonja Bikergrrl: These guys have nothing much... some wooden discs with crude dragon heads on, some scraps of rag, a dead rat, a used hanky, and empty bottle.
[2025/01/26 15:16] Mecha: Keep the discs
[2025/01/26 15:17] Sonja Bikergrrl: you now have 18 little wooden discs.
[2025/01/26 15:17] Andreas: /me I'd take the empty bottle if you don't mind Mecha.
[2025/01/26 15:18] Mecha: enjoy
[2025/01/26 15:18] Sapphire: "Their lord seems to have taught them about fiat money I suppose."
[2025/01/26 15:18] Kylie: I'll take the dead rat
[2025/01/26 15:18] Sonja Bikergrrl: So... now what... two passages, and a hole to one side
[2025/01/26 15:19] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me notes the bottle and dead rat
[2025/01/26 15:19] Andreas: /me Sonja, can I pull out/reuse any of the arrows I shot?
[2025/01/26 15:20] Sonja Bikergrrl: you shot 6, and recover 3. Already noted; you still have 25
[2025/01/26 15:20] Mecha: Follow the path they just came from?
[2025/01/26 15:20] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... the path...
[2025/01/26 15:20] Sapphire: what can we see of the hole?
[2025/01/26 15:21] Jassie: was about to ask bout the hole
[2025/01/26 15:21] Sonja Bikergrrl: ...leads to what looks like their temple. The chamber dedicated to Emberclaw is a cavernous, dimly-lit room adorned with flickering torchlight that casts dancing shadows upon the rough stone walls. At the center lies a massive altar crafted from charred obsidian, intricately carved with depictions of Emberclaw soaring through flames and ransacking treasures. The air is thick with the scent of sulfur and smoke, and the ground is littered with offerings of roasted meats, dragon-shaped incense, and small trinkets left by devout creaturess seeking favor from their fierce deity. At the far end of the room, a stone statue of Emberclaw looms, its eyes glowing with a faint red light, giving the impression of a watchful presence.


The Kobolds worshipping Emberclaw


[2025/01/26 15:22] Mecha: oh... shit
[2025/01/26 15:22] Kylie: The red light might be the dreamstone
[2025/01/26 15:22] Sonja Bikergrrl: It doesn't seem like it's going to do anything, but, I doubt the kobolds will be too pleased now.
[2025/01/26 15:23] Sonja Bikergrrl: not that they were particularly pleased before.
[2025/01/26 15:23] Sonja Bikergrrl: now what?
[2025/01/26 15:23] Jassie: is thmy detect magic still up?
[2025/01/26 15:23] Jassie: has it been 10mins since?
[2025/01/26 15:23] Sonja Bikergrrl: I think that expired, yes, it's been a lot longer
[2025/01/26 15:23] Jassie: got it
[2025/01/26 15:23] Mecha: One shot. One kill.
[2025/01/26 15:24] Sonja Bikergrrl: searching? Back tracking to the other passage?
[2025/01/26 15:24] Sapphire: do their appear to be any masks of their fierce deity?
[2025/01/26 15:24] Kylie: I think we should examin the statues glowing eyes
[2025/01/26 15:24] Jassie: yea probably search around the hole room also?
[2025/01/26 15:25] Sonja Bikergrrl: not as far as you can tell.
[2025/01/26 15:25] Andreas: /me wants to search the altar for a trap.
[2025/01/26 15:25] Sonja Bikergrrl: As for the glowing eyes... a faint glow, from deep-set stones.
[2025/01/26 15:25] Sonja Bikergrrl: d100, Andreas
[2025/01/26 15:25] D10: Andreas rolls 5
[2025/01/26 15:25] Sonja Bikergrrl: you find no traps, but it's clear there's a compartment.
[2025/01/26 15:26] Andreas: /me searches the compartment
[2025/01/26 15:26] Sonja Bikergrrl: It opens easily.
[2025/01/26 15:27] Sonja Bikergrrl: Two slightly blue potions, one potion that is shimmering and red, and a small obsidian token that resembles a flying dragon.
[2025/01/26 15:28] Sonja Bikergrrl: What are you going to do with those
[2025/01/26 15:28] Andreas: /me "any idea what this could be for?" looking at the potion.
[2025/01/26 15:28] Kylie: I'm going to drink one of the blue potions
[2025/01/26 15:28] Jassie: waoh
[2025/01/26 15:29] Sonja Bikergrrl: you have one light blue potion... Kylie roll d6


Kylie Drinking a Mysterious Potion


[2025/01/26 15:29] D6: Kylie rolls 1
[2025/01/26 15:29] Sonja Bikergrrl: well, you feel slightly healthier...
[2025/01/26 15:30] Kylie: Ah that is a boost
[2025/01/26 15:30] Sapphire: Emily will pilfer the dragon statuette
[2025/01/26 15:30] Sonja Bikergrrl: would appear to be a standard Potion of Healing
[2025/01/26 15:30] Mecha: I just blink watching this
[2025/01/26 15:30] Jassie: was going to say like, didnt even try to figure out what it was first hehe
[2025/01/26 15:30] Sonja Bikergrrl: the remaining two potions?
[2025/01/26 15:30] Sonja Bikergrrl: that's our Kylie
[2025/01/26 15:31] Jassie: maybe keep them for now?
[2025/01/26 15:31] Andreas: /me "we may use the two other potions later".
[2025/01/26 15:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: who keeps which?
[2025/01/26 15:31] Jassie: did we figure out what the blue one was?
[2025/01/26 15:32] Sonja Bikergrrl: Probably a healing potion
[2025/01/26 15:32] Jassie: so was just the red we not sure of yet
[2025/01/26 15:32] Sonja Bikergrrl: indeed
[2025/01/26 15:32] Andreas: /me "What the obsidian dragon token could be? A key or so?"
[2025/01/26 15:33] Jassie: hmmmm
[2025/01/26 15:33] Sonja Bikergrrl: what indeed!
[2025/01/26 15:33] Jassie: anybody feeling hurt at this moment?
[2025/01/26 15:33] Mecha: I got a cut but I will be fine. I say save it until we really need it.
[2025/01/26 15:33] Sonja Bikergrrl: Andreas and Kylie are slightly injured, but far from danger
[2025/01/26 15:33] Sapphire: "Or a summoning device," she'll inspect it
[2025/01/26 15:34] Sonja Bikergrrl: It's a well carved object, certainly, with an obvious hole to hand from a thread
[2025/01/26 15:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: Back to check the other passageway?
[2025/01/26 15:35] Andreas: /me walks carefully towards the two lights resembling dragons eyes to check what those are.
[2025/01/26 15:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: hard to say what they are... glowing red stones, set deep in the statue. The light isn't overly bright.
[2025/01/26 15:36] Jassie: hmm, wonder if everything will be fine if we take them out
[2025/01/26 15:36] Andreas: /me searches the statute for traps
[2025/01/26 15:36] Sapphire: "A small flame behind the gems to make them glow?"
[2025/01/26 15:36] Jassie: yes possibly
[2025/01/26 15:36] Sonja Bikergrrl: d100, Andreas
[2025/01/26 15:36] D10: Andreas rolls 10
[2025/01/26 15:36] Sonja Bikergrrl: And the light doesn't flicker or change
[2025/01/26 15:36] Mecha: okay I have a feeling how this is gonna go. Who is gonna try to take those?
[2025/01/26 15:36] Sonja Bikergrrl: again with the d10?
[2025/01/26 15:36] D10: Andreas rolls 9
[2025/01/26 15:36] Sonja Bikergrrl: You find no traps.
[2025/01/26 15:37] Sapphire: we don't have a dedicated d100 die
[2025/01/26 15:37] Sonja Bikergrrl: don't need one
[2025/01/26 15:38] Andreas: /me pulls the dagger and tries to pull out the red stones from the statue
[2025/01/26 15:38] Sonja Bikergrrl: so... staying to examine the statue more? time is of the essence, probably...
[2025/01/26 15:38] Sonja Bikergrrl: roll d20, roll under dexterity
[2025/01/26 15:38] Mecha: And I have my answer
[2025/01/26 15:38] D20: Andreas rolls 20
[2025/01/26 15:38] Sonja Bikergrrl: whoops....
[2025/01/26 15:39] Jassie: yea, figures, we are in a rush after all too
[2025/01/26 15:39] Sonja Bikergrrl: you jimmy the dagger in the socket. It gets stuck, you twist and pull, the blade snaps.
[2025/01/26 15:39] Andreas: oh damn
[2025/01/26 15:39] Sonja Bikergrrl: you have no more dagger.
[2025/01/26 15:39] Sapphire: "THose don't have the power of the dream stone, let's keep moving."
[2025/01/26 15:40] Jassie: how many daggers u got there?
[2025/01/26 15:40] Sonja Bikergrrl: Back to check the other passage out? Or back to the hole.
[2025/01/26 15:40] Jassie: other passage?
[2025/01/26 15:41] Sonja Bikergrrl: there were two from the kobolds living area
[2025/01/26 15:42] Mecha: Other passage
[2025/01/26 15:42] Andreas: /me nods
[2025/01/26 15:42] Sapphire: Emily lends a stolen kobold dagger to replace the snapped one while checking out the hole
[2025/01/26 15:42] Sonja Bikergrrl: back we go... to... the throne room
[2025/01/26 15:43] Andreas: /me thank you Emily
[2025/01/26 15:43] Sonja Bikergrrl: The kobold throne room is a cramped chamber, adorned with crude tapestries, and dimly lit by small braziers filled with glowing coals to provide warmth. At the center stands a rough-hewn stone throne elevated on a raised platform, encrusted with colorful stones meticulously arranged in chaotic patterns. Flickering torchlight casts dancing shadows across the walls, revealing hieroglyphs depicting the Emberclaw and his legendary exploits. Cobwebs cling to the corners, and a few scattered piles of shiny trinkets - mirrors and tin cups and plates captured from unwary adventurers - litter the ground, while a faint smell of sulfur permeates the air.
[2025/01/26 15:43] Sonja Bikergrrl: There is a chest noticeable to one side.
[2025/01/26 15:44] Jassie: make sure to check around the area first
[2025/01/26 15:44] Jassie: any indication of life?
[2025/01/26 15:44] Sonja Bikergrrl: none that you can see
[2025/01/26 15:45] Sapphire: Emily is visibly stressed that they aren't finding the artifact of vast power.
[2025/01/26 15:45] Sapphire: ....they did get a description of what it should look like, right?
[2025/01/26 15:45] Sonja Bikergrrl: well... you're technically only on level one... and by no stretch of the imagination could a dragon fit here
[2025/01/26 15:46] Mecha: Looking around for tunnels or stairs going up or something
[2025/01/26 15:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: the fake you stole so long ago now, was glowing blue and head-sized
[2025/01/26 15:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: Nothing here except the crude and gaudy throne, the chest, and the way back to the living area
[2025/01/26 15:46] Andreas: /me carefully moving towards the chest to check for a traps.
[2025/01/26 15:47] Sapphire: is the chest bigger than a head?
[2025/01/26 15:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: well, it's chest sized :)
[2025/01/26 15:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: D100, Andreas
[2025/01/26 15:47] D10: Andreas rolls 9
[2025/01/26 15:48] Sonja Bikergrrl: well, you don't find any traps
[2025/01/26 15:48] Andreas: /me check if it's locked / tries to open it.
[2025/01/26 15:48] Sonja Bikergrrl: you tug on the lid. It stays closed.
[2025/01/26 15:48] Sonja Bikergrrl: Locked!
[2025/01/26 15:49] Andreas: /me let's try lockpick the chest
[2025/01/26 15:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: d100
[2025/01/26 15:49] D10: Andreas rolls 4
[2025/01/26 15:49] Sapphire: ....chest sized?
[2025/01/26 15:49] Andreas: =/
[2025/01/26 15:49] Jassie: gotta go clock off in bout 15mins btw
[2025/01/26 15:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: -click- the lock springs open
[2025/01/26 15:49] Jassie: feel free to continue without me XD
[2025/01/26 15:50] Sonja Bikergrrl: it's a chest sized chest...
[2025/01/26 15:50] Andreas: /me opens the lid of the chest
[2025/01/26 15:50] Sonja Bikergrrl: roll d20, roll under dexterity
[2025/01/26 15:51] D20: Andreas rolls 14
[2025/01/26 15:51] Sonja Bikergrrl: ie., under 15
[2025/01/26 15:51] Sonja Bikergrrl: *GIGGLES*
[2025/01/26 15:51] Sapphire: like, A-cup chest, D-sized?
[2025/01/26 15:51] Sonja Bikergrrl: you spot the tiny needle shooting out... just in time!
[2025/01/26 15:52] Sonja Bikergrrl: In the chest: what look like a thousand wooden disks, and a quarter of that number, stone discs, all with crude dragon heads carved on them.
[2025/01/26 15:52] Andreas: /me "looks like loot. Is any of this useful?"
[2025/01/26 15:53] Sonja Bikergrrl: Looks useful if you are a kobold going shopping
[2025/01/26 15:53] Jassie: lolol
[2025/01/26 15:53] Sonja Bikergrrl: otherwise... the hole in the living area would seem to be the next place to check out.
[2025/01/26 15:54] Mecha: Off we go then
[2025/01/26 15:54] Sonja Bikergrrl: The hole looks deep...
[2025/01/26 15:54] Sapphire: Onwards!
[2025/01/26 15:54] Sapphire: any lighting in there?
[2025/01/26 15:54] Sapphire: how big around is the hole?
[2025/01/26 15:54] Sonja Bikergrrl: ...and thats a good cliffhanger to end on
[2025/01/26 15:54] Sapphire: D:
[2025/01/26 15:54] Sonja Bikergrrl: A man-sized figure could go through
[2025/01/26 15:55] Sonja Bikergrrl: but you'll need some means of going up/down, otherwise gravity will make for a very fast one-way trip
[2025/01/26 15:55] Mecha: Will be back. Need to run an errand
[2025/01/26 15:55] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay, I know two got to go
[2025/01/26 15:55] Andreas: cliffhanger, yeah stare into man-sized hole :)
[2025/01/26 15:55] Sonja Bikergrrl: so thank you for coming... you're.... about half way ;)
[2025/01/26 15:55] Jassie: yea in about 10mins
[2025/01/26 15:55] Mecha: be back as soon as safely possible.
[2025/01/26 15:56] Sonja Bikergrrl: and what you'll encounter deeper down... oh. You'll see :)
[2025/01/26 15:56] Sonja Bikergrrl: Hope you enjoyed it so far!
[2025/01/26 15:56] Jassie: other than my rolls
[2025/01/26 15:56] Jassie: sure

[2025/01/26 15:57] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me reads ahead for next week... smirks... can see at least one person getting... annoyed.
[2025/01/26 15:58] Andreas: the fight with the kobolds was bit of a mess, coz we've been clumsy and the d6 ... the D6 !
[2025/01/26 15:58] Sonja Bikergrrl: Eh. Dice are dice
[2025/01/26 15:58] Sonja Bikergrrl: the dice gods are fickle and capricious
[2025/01/26 15:58] Jassie: ah i was missing most of it anyways
[2025/01/26 15:58] Jassie: in my case very sonja
[2025/01/26 15:59] Jassie: but i think Sonja has rigged the dice on the table anyways
[2025/01/26 15:59] Kylie: definately rigged

[2025/01/26 16:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: well, I better run along as we get past pumpkin hour... see you next week....

[2025/01/26 16:00] Andreas: thank you for game
[2025/01/26 16:00] Andreas: see you later creatures
[2025/01/26 16:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: oh, anytime
