Highland Archipelago: Terror in the Mist (IC)

[Morbis Meh]

Bishop regarded the public servant thoughtfully "Well constant rain, wind and mist, does wear on a person's body and soul from what I ken. As for me being new, well I must admit I came for the shellfish." He adds a slight smirk to accompany his statement.

He looks over his solider and sees the other two walking towards them, his smirks turns into a grin "Lookee here Vash, seems like the holy roller has returned with the young'en must of gotten lost or realized that they forgot the competant warriors."

[Hestraim]

As Makoa approaches the inn he sees Bishop. Here we go again.

Yes! Yes! The villagers were unresponsive. I think we should take the night to speak with the bartender and any other patrons within the bar.

Speaking quietly so only the Brother hears, Let's be above this silly arguing we have been doing. Anyways the enemy of my enemy is my friend, yes?

Makoa joins Vash and Bishop Any luck getting any more information about the mysterious disappearances?

[ninthbit]

Vash'iar shrugs his shoulders, I'm over it. This backwards island has enough of it's own issues. I just want to sleep in a bed that doesn't move. We'll start putting things in order first thing in the morning.

[Hestraim]

Makoa walks into the inn. Looking forward to a good night's sleep.

Pedivere heads for the room in the overpriced dilapidated inn. Before bedding down for the night, he removes his scalemail and lays it out over the end of the bed, and then dons his leather armour. His axe he leans against the wall in easy reach. His back he lies at the foot of the bed next to his mail.

If there is a window, Pedivere opens it such that he is able to hear any commotion that may occur in the town.

As night rolls on the rain becomes a thunderstorm, everyone give me perception checks.

Vash'iar also rests in his armor. His morning ritual is to use his inate magic (prestidigitation) to clean himself and his armor.

As howls sound outside, vash is woken from a dead sleep, and hears them. the rest of you are too far asleep to be woken by them.

[/table]

Pedivere begins to snore.

It's been a while since he had a good, firm bed and whilst this isn't luxury, it's better than a damp constantly rocking boat.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzz Zzzzzzzzzzzzz Zzzzzzzzzzzzz Zzzzzzzzzzzzz

[ninthbit]

Vash lumbers over to the window with sword drawn. He listens as the howling goes. Stupid wolves in the forest. He gives a final look to the streets below.

Perception: (1d20+5)[14]

If he notices nothing and it looks like morning soon:
He will get ready for the new day and head down for breakfast

If he notices nothing and it looks like its still the dead of night:
He'll return to his bed to sleep

If he notices anything that would warrant waking the others:
He will wake the group, starting with Bishop, then the others. The urgency will dictate how he goes about it. If he only thinks he saw something, he'll get Bishop and go investigate. If he knows he saw something dangerous he will quickly get them all.

[Crazyfailure13]

Outside the window, the rain falls in sheets, the city lights up from complete darkness by a strike of lightning, and you see a clawed foot disappear into an alley across the street.

[ninthbit]

Vash quickly wakes the group, starting with Bishop, then the others. It appears we slept in the correct location, there is a creature in the streets outside.

[Morbis Meh]

Bishop stirs, grumbling about being awoke in the middle of the night. Sighin he replies irritably "Yipee, aren't we a bunch of lucky son of a guns, I'll be fine, go grab the savage and the bible thumper." Rising slowly he puts on his armor and clothing then places his gun back in his holster. Ready he walks outside into the common area, waiting for the others.

[Hestraim]

I'm awake. What is happening? Makoa yells through the door as Vash knocks. Dawning his equipment without rushing, Makoa heads to the common room with only his weapons, armor and a rope strapped around his chest.

Pedivere risks a quick glance out his window to see if there is time to change armour.

As Pedivere looks out the window, all you see is total darkness.

[ninthbit]

This blasted mist is rediculas... no sun... no stars... not even properly functioning street lamps... F*** frustrated, he pulls a sunrod from his pack, strikes it, and carefully affixes it to the top of his pack so he doesn't get burned but can keep his hands free.

I saw the bastard over this way. He then sets out with the group to hunt it down.

[Morbis Meh]

Bishop raises an eyebrow at the sudden outburst "Wow there, settle down there fella, no need to get your britches in a bind, calm down before you run off into the sea. A frustrated man wandering out into weather like this is prone to accidents, now we wouldn't want that. Good thing you have that rod because my night vision aint worth spit, I will have your back out there."

He clears his throat and goes out into the darkness behind the brash Vash.

Darkvision 60', armour donned hastily

[/table]

Pedivere quickly shirks out of his leather armour and dons his scale hastily.

[Crazyfailure13]

As you walk outside, the thick rain quickly drenchs you, you all look around for signs of whatever Vash saw.

Give me survival and perception checks.

[Crazyfailure13]

you find a set of trackable foot prints, they seem normal aside from long slashs that suggest claws. The prints lead into to the alley, where the impressions get deeper, eventually, when followed they lead out east of the city.

[Morbis Meh]

Bishop hunkers down on his hanches and studies the tracks with a slight frown on his face What fresh new hell is this? What on earth have I gotten myself into this time?

Mulling over the multitude of possibilites he stands up "Well if we're going after this think in the dead of night it went towards that there alley. I think it best we approach this carefully, we do not know what horrors this god forsaken town has in store for us."

[ninthbit]

With this rain we will have to hurry. I don’t intend on losing its tracks. Vash'iar then sets out into the woods after the creature.

[Hestraim]

Makoa follows Vash. Drawing his axe, Makoa doesn't feel like being surprised by anything.

[Crazyfailure13]

As you enter the forest, the howling seems to come from all sides, and the light from the sunrod seems to grow dim. As you follow the tracks, they stop suddenly in a small clearing. when you get to the clearing, the howls stop, the moon light adds to the sunrods light. after a moment a figure on four legs approachs you out of the trees, you can't make out what it is yet.
