Re: [4E] Tomb of Horrors IC
Rynthel breathes the rich, glorious air in with great pleasure. Home.
"Have a care how you speak around me, dwarf. The Feywild is my home. I was born here. And even as fallen as my people in general are, we are still fey. This place is in our blood." He smiles. "And you should revel in nature. It's beautiful, and the stone your kind loves so much is part of it."

Travok glances at Rynthel, but doesn't say anything. Elves wouldn't love nature so much if they had allergies as bad as his.
Inspecting the ground, he points to some tracks. "Yeah, they went through this way," he says. "We should follow-follow-ACHOO!" He rubs his nose on his tabard. "Stupid nature!" he mutters.Last edited by DSCrankshaw; 2010-11-22 at 01:12 AM.

Re: [4E] Tomb of Horrors IC
When you emerge into the clearing it's obvious that someone has camped here recently, perhaps even last night. There are the remains of a few fires and a few piles of deadwood and kindling.
Vines and leaves have been pulled from the trees and are scattered in flat piles, suggesting bedding.
Here and there are wineskins and bottles, regretably empty, and a pile of strong-smelling wood that appears to be the remains of a wine barrel.
And all through the camp site are the same cloven hoof prints that you have been tracking. It's only possible to follow them at the edge of the camp site where they move towards what seems to be a road.Last edited by Katana_Geldar; 2010-11-22 at 02:16 AM.

Re: [4E] Tomb of Horrors IC
As his inquiries on the Feywild were ignored, the metal man shrugs and takes his position at the rear of the group. Sword in one hand and shield in the other, prepared to meet, or be met, by their foes. A clicking sound and a slight scrape of metal is heard as a panel of his shoulder opens and a small cross bow emerges, folding open and locking into place, before loading itself.

Re: [4E] Tomb of Horrors IC
When you come to the road the tracks are a little harder to determine as they seem to go in many directions. It does seem that it was quite a large party that attacked the caravan you saw earlier.
Nature 15
SpoilerThrough careful examination you see that the party seemed to split, with the majority heading south but around five or six heading north.
Ghamed and Desrook

You've been ambushed, you're not sure how. But suddenly you are surrounded by satyrs. However, the satyrs' wits seem a little bit addled and are slow to attack.

"Desrook," Ghamed says to his companion, "we cannot be ambushed here, we're so close... Let's incapacitate them while we can..."
Ghamed concentrates as he holds his Orb of Nimble Thoughts, then he extends one hand to the east and the other to the west, casting two spells simultaneously as a crimson aura surrounds him.
A dazzling light erupts from one of his hands, affecting two satyrs of the east, while with the other hand, Ghamed seems to briefly distort the fabric of space in a small area. Two other satyrs are in different places than before.
SpoilerColor Spray at Satyrs 4 and 5:
Satyr 4: (1d20+13)[29] vs Will
Satyr 5: (1d20+13)[33] vs Will (this is a critical, so automatic 13 damage plus 6 = 19 damage)
(1d6+7)[13] radiant damage if hits and satyr is dazed until the end of my next turn.
Also, I spend an Action Point:
Twist of Space aimimng at BB-10, affecting Satyrs 1 and 2
Satyr 1: (1d20+13)[29] vs Will
Satyr 2: (1d20+13)[20] vs Will
(1d6+7)[11] damage if hits and satyr is teleported 3 squares (Satyr 1 to BF-13 and Satyr 2 to BD-11) and slowed until the end of my next turn.
"We have no time for your games, satyrs!," he says in Elven. "Leave now while you can!"

SpoilerYou follow the tracks north but for some reason they leave the road, going into the long grass and becoming harder to follow. You all but lose trace of them, and
it's starting to get dark and they are getting more and more difficult to find.
Over to the northwest a flock of birds flies out of the trees, startled by something and there's a crackling of small branches breaking as small animals flee.
Perception 20 (may be passive)
SpoilerYou can hear someone shouting not far off but can't understand the words. Then there is a rippling noise that doesn't sound at all natural. And finally, there are the unmistakeable sounds of bowstrings snapping back.Last edited by Katana_Geldar; 2010-11-24 at 02:46 PM.

If I had my way, Ghamed, I'd be in the woods, and they'd be the ones with surprised looks on their faces... he grumbles, running up to satyr most impacted by the Deva's spell and slamming it full in the face with his warhammer.

As he prepares his next spell, the deva smiles slightly. "Certainly, my ill-tempered, yet effective friend, it appears that I was not made to knock satyrs out on the first attack. Perhaps is that field your speciality?"Last edited by Belthasar; 2010-11-24 at 10:06 PM.

Re: [4E] Tomb of Horrors IC
Travok, Arthur, KT and Rythnel
As you travel, trying to follow the tracks you can see a small mountain further north surrounded by trees.
Perception 15 (may be passive)
SpoilerThe forest has now gone quiet and you can hear the sounds of explosions and bowstrings snapping back as well as shouts of triumph and screams of pain. It is very, very near.
The satyr that Desrook attacked starts to fall, then freezes, and rights itself. Smoke pours out of it's mouth and it's eyes roll back in it's head. It attacks, raising his bow at the revenant and plants an arrow firmly in his thigh. Then collapses to the ground, dead.
The satyrs seem to close in on you, but at the same time keeping their distance. One of them fires at Ghamed, missing, and then moves quickly and fires again at Desrook, hitting the mark this time.
Two of the satyrs on the far side of the clearing slowly make their way back towards Ghamed, the first one hitting the wizard who quickly conjures up a shield to deflect the second attack.
And then the final satyr camly lines up a shot against Desrook, missing him.

Re: [4E] Tomb of Horrors IC
SpoilerDesrook
Bah, their arrows sting a bit, growled Desrook, but he mostly just ignored the arrows. Well, deva, ye only live once, eh? he said with fake defeatism, a phrase he had come to adore, since he found it so amusing. He stormed up to the other Satyr dazed by Ghamed's colour spray, taking a hand off his hammer for a moment to try and seize the satyr's quiver, that he might dump it out of the fey's reach. Regardless of his success, he puts both hands on the warhammer and slams it into the Satyr's face, following through with a hard kick if he's successful.

Ghamed prepares his orb and concentrate. "Satyrs are lustful immortals. I wonder what will happen if I put a shineful vision before them..."
A fabulous, golden pile of treasure seems to materialize in the ground. One of the satyrs seems doubtful about looking at the treasure. "Don't resist, fey. Show your true nature before me..."
Then Ghamed walks solemnly to the woods nearby while turning to Desrook: "Those creatures shall be occupied for a while. I suppose that will give you some time to take care of these over here?"
SpoilerStandard action: Visions of Avarice aimed at BA-7 (I create the illusion of a treasure)
Minor action: The treasure makes an attack, close burst 5 (I get combat advantage vs satyrs 1 and 2, so I added that bonus to my attack roll):
Satyr 1: (1d20+15)[16] vs Will. Hit: Pulls to BB-8
Satyr 2: (1d20+15)[33] vs Will. Hit: Pulls to BA-8
Satyr 3: (1d20+13)[17] +7 (Magic of the Ages) = 24 vs Will. Hit: Pulls to AZ-8
Satyr 4: (1d20+13)[27] vs Will. Hit: Pulls to AZ-7
Every satyr that ends in the treasure zone or adjacent is immobilized (save ends).
Move action: Move to AU-2 (I suppose trees grants you concealment, right?)

Re: [4E] Tomb of Horrors IC
Dazzled by the treasure, the satyrs are urged forward angered when they see it's not real and start cursing when they can't move. Two of them fire at Desrook, the arrows bouncing harmlessly off his armour. Two at the rear fire at him, also missing.
