Turn 29 - Exit then return

[Zed]

Touching a piece of the gem is not a good idea it seems. AS the sliver of gem touches the skin it flares a moment and seems to melt, then quickly becomes absorbed into the hand. A faint glow can be seen for a moment before it vanishes as though a bulb where turned off. Belwar feels no different... Deciding quickly that the room is not a safe place to rest and the gem to freaky to stay near you close and seal the door to the Gem vault as best you can. Then return to the city whic proves uneventfull and frankly dull..

You bunk down in the Grinning Goblin for the rest of the day, interspersing trips to various market stalls or retail outlets. Then after a night of rest you return to the mansion and venture back to the banewarrens again.

Returning to the Dungeons below you once again enter the octagonal shaped room and are able to proceed to the south or west into a lower and darker area of the larger room you are currently in.

Taking a moment to listen you think you hear a sound of metal or something hard scraping against rock coming from the west. It is very faint and could simply be a trick being played on your ears..

"Whats that noise?" Thak whispers. "Bamoin you have keen ears what you think?"
Thak will follow the group in whatever they decide. All the time wary.

"Sounds like that could be some more Umber Hulks, or whatever led those creatures here in the first place." Arak moves cautiously, remaining close to his brother, ready to cast Bull's Strength on him P).

 

[Medivac]

"Not sure, I'll have a closer look, Thak"

Bamoin will stealthily move closer to the noise , and try to find out what it is .

Rapier at the ready he moves out....

LOL! Oooh boy 'ere we go again. Afore the last night I'd ask Caligula to memorize a spell: Remove Curse. Also, I'd cast a detect magic in order to check whether any part of my body seems magical, especially the foot which absorbed the gem. Furthermore, next morning I'd have Caligula cast that Remove Curse on me. Just in case. Also, I'll cast a Remove Disease and a Detect Poison on me. Other than that, if nothing seems to have happened, I'd ask Caligula to cast a Detect Evil and check if any part of me seems 'evil'.

Aaanyways, a little update coming to you Zed about my memorizations.

Belwar casts Greater Magic Fang and Barkskin on himself, and says to Arak: "Oh nevermind about the Bull's Strength. Cast only it on me if I already am in wolf form, and only then if I haven't cast it on myself prior to entering wolf form. Forgot that I could cast it too..."

"It's good that your magics let you do something useful...they're typically so limited..." [ooc ]

"Bah, beware yer tongue lest ye might find me pup biting yer arse..." (ooc )

Larson is nursing a hangover after another night of drunkness and corousing. He even managed to break his on record of 30 pints of ale before he passed out.

"ARG the noise jeeze it killing me... The air whisling out of those gnomish nostrils are deafiningly loud.. Oh god I knew I shouldn't have eating egg." *gahhh* *gahhh* "

After his little bought Larson stands up straight and chugs a pint and moves silently and stealthfully toward the noise......

Siggi, on gettin back to town, found that some Northerners had been asking around for her. It turned out to be her brothers seeking her. Her father has requested her presence at the stead far to the north. making her appologies to all and sundry she accompanies her siblings on the long road back to Gottredsfjord.

OOC: not gonna be able to continue to play, dont want to be dragged round as dead weight (Cannon fodder). Good luck guys.

 

[Kegs]

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Kaerwek]

Duh! Well, I guess it'll make the fights more interesting... (i.e. difficult)

(ooc: well, there were too many of us really anyway...)
While up on the surface, jial checked his pet hawk was ok and also asked if it had spotted anything odd up on the surface, while we were below (i can ask my animal companion things, right? or have i been playing with NWN rules too much?). I'll also give it some food


hearing the noise, jial softly says "i suggest we investigate to hte west, cautiously."

 

[Gottaa]

Dee nods and points his head towards the west

(OOC, sorry to see you go Cull, hopefully be carrion bair in the future )

 

[Raving]

Hopefully Knok replenished arrows, amd got some minor heal pots to carry.

"fining out what thenoise is is a good Idea I feel,, it might be a little way off at the moment, but it can always get closer when we realy dont need it"

 

[Entropy]

[ooc, don't suppose I can cast web on Siggni before she wanders off can I? Any chance you'll be coming back Cull? It was fun...]

 

[Zed]

The Consensus then is to head west down the dip into the darker area and see if you can determine the source of the noise...

Doing it quietly as well ,....
