Khorne Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 Eric nodded in confirmation of Erdathcath's suggestion. Eric will try to swing Godricsleif in the Zombie's direction, hopefully hurting it. From the back row, of course . Battle Order: Ad-Hoh magic Hybros fire bomb Christopher holy bomb Erdathcath fire bomb Eric Maurice potion
Fred Fred Burger Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 In that case I'll throw my Holy bomb at it from the front row.

The_Customizer Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 It figures, the one cleric we have gets attacked. Oh well, after this next round of bombardments, he should die. Shall we all use holy bombs? Or perhaps, Maurice are you now healed enough that you and Ad-hoh could take him out by yourselves?
Etzel Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 It figures, the one cleric we have gets attacked. Oh well, after this next round of bombardments, he should die. Shall we all use holy bombs? Or perhaps, Maurice are you now healed enough that you and Ad-hoh could take him out by yourselves? "I'm sorry but I still can't attack the undead pirate, neither with my mace or with the power of the Light. But I will help by throwing a Lightning Bomb from the back row this time."
ADHO15 Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 "I may be able to destroy this creature in one hit, but it is unlikely. Nevertheless, I shall attack this Pirate Zombie from the back row with Darkness once more."
Khorne Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 "Argh, cursed! I'd hoped the Zombie would've been truly dead by now. Let's hit it again, it's bound to go down." Eric shouted, still blinded and poison still running through his veins. He started to feel abandonned, despite being surrounded by companions. The strong link he had with the Norse gods was fading, the faith he placed in them faltering. Once, he had been favored above all others by them. Blessed with great strength and dexterity by Torrik, gifted with martial skill and prowess second only to the great god Wartan himself. Even the Ice Queen Helvetia looked favorably upon him and pledged her aid in his task. Now, however, Eric didn't feel particularly ace. He felt as if the embrace of the gods was lessening the longer it took him to complete his mission. The requisite for being able to return home. Years he had wandered, but he hadn't been able to redeem himself. Not yet. Never had he lost his Norse pride and faith in the old ways, but now the great warrior started to doubt even the gods themselves. Had they lost their faith in him? Eric dug in his pack and whipped out a potion. Slowly he put the vial to his lips and drank its contents. Eric takes a potion. Battle Order: Ad-Hoh darkness attack Maurice lightning bomb Erdathcath holy bomb (??) Christopher fire bomb (??) Hybros (??) Eric potion
JimBee Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 "Since there's nothing I can do, I'll just sit this one out." Hybros took this chance to close his eyes and poner the true purpose of Heroica and himself. He hoped that the battle would be over by the time he opened them.
The_Customizer Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 Yes, I am attacking with a Holy Bomb. OOC: I am gone till saturday night, so feel free to continue the quest without me. (just don't let me die!)

Eric and Maurice lose one more health to the poisoning before it fades away. THE BATTLE IS VICTORIOUS! All heroes gain half of a level. The enemies drop a Potion, a Lightning Bomb, a Brass Key, some Rum and a Banana.

Does not work on pirate leaders. 1x Banana - Restores full health when eaten.
Khorne Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 Eric was relieved that the Zombie's curse was wearing off. As he opened his eyes, he saw Ad-Hoh recoiling from his powerful attack. Eric was glad Ad-Hoh was with them. Even though Eric was sceptical of mages, he had to admit Ad-Hoh could do more than just brewing potions and reading arcane books. The mage could certainly stand in battle. Eric went through the pile of dead bodies and dug up the loot. Among it was a Brass Key which he pocketed. Division of loot: Ad-Hoh - Banana Christopher Erdatcath - Rum Eric - Brass Key Hybros - Lightning Bomb Maurice - Potion After dividing the spoils, Eric spoke: "Let's see if this key can open up the prison back there."
ADHO15 Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 "Huzzah! Victory at last! Thank you very much, Eric!" "I agree. Let us go back and try to gain access to the prison."
Sandy Posted January 25, 2012 Author Posted January 25, 2012 The party makes its way down the corridor, past the pier and to the jail cell with the treasure in it. They try the brass key on the jail door, but it does not fit. Then they remember that the door next to it has a brass lock in it, and lo and behold, it opens! Beyond the door, they find a small room with a stone staircase winding up. Will the party return upstairs using these stairs?
ADHO15 Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 Will the party return upstairs using these stairs? "That plan of action sounds good to me."
Khorne Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 "I think we covered about everything on this level, so let's check out where this stairs leads us to"
Sandy Posted January 25, 2012 Author Posted January 25, 2012 Party: Ad-Hoh (played by ADHO15) Level 13 Mage *resistant to magic* Power: 18 Health: 11/17 Ether: 10/17 Gold: 10 Inventory: Rhabdomance Staff (WP:5), Robe of Spell Resistance, Emerald (Wood), Amethyst (Darkness), Ruby (Fire) 4 Potions, 3 Tonics, Mead, 2 Rums, 2 Lightning Bombs, Bedroll, Shovel, 1/6 of the Hinckwell Wares, Banana Sir Christopher Daggerfall (Fred Fred Burger) Level 12 Knight Power: 20 Defence: 4 Health: 21/21 Gold: 19 Inventory: Great Sword (WP:7), Mockthril Shield (WP:4), 3 Potions, Grand Potion, Remedy, Mead, 2 Rums, Smoke Bomb, Fire Bomb, Bedroll, Shovel, Pickaxe, Bone, 1/6 of the Hinckwell Wares Erdathcath Madilinas (played by The_Customizer) Level 12 Ranger Power: 17 Health: 18/18 Gold: 92 Inventory: Longbow (WP:5), Helmet (+1 max. health), Snake Eye Charm (protects from petrify), Potion, Grand Potion, Phoenix Essence, 3 Rums, 2 Smoke Bombs, 2 Ice Bombs, Lightning Bomb, Water Bomb, Holy Bomb, Bedroll, Shovel, Pickaxe, Telescope, 1/6 of the Hinckwell Wares, Greasy Sausage Eric (played by Khorne) *Party Leader* Level 15 Barbarian Power: 23 (20 for dual strike) Health: 23/23 Gold: 8 Inventory: Godricsleif (WP:8, ice-elemental), Drengazuli Grom'az (WP:5, dual strike), Potion, Mead, 3 Rums, Venom, Bedroll, Bone, 1/6 of the Hinckwell Wares Hybros (played by JimButcher) Level 12½ Rogue Power: 22 (17 for ranged weapons) Health: 20/20 Gold: 228 Inventory: Zoot's Reaper (WP:10), Shuriken of Mercutio (WP:5), Throwing Knife (WP:5), Helmet (+1 max. health), 3 Potions, Grand Potion, Remedy, 2 Meads, 2 Nostrums, 2 Smelling Salts, 2 Rums, Smoke Bomb, Lightning Bomb, Shovel, Bone, Bedroll, Skeleton Decoy, 1/6 of the Hinckwell Wares Maurice Ratibor (played by Etzel) Level 11½ Cleric Power: 15 Health: 18/20 Ether: 7/15 Gold: 32 Inventory: Diamond Mace (WP:4, light-elemental), Helmet (+1 max. health), Scroll of Sleep, 2 Potions, 3 Tonics, Phoenix Essence, Venom, Mead, 2 Nostrum, Rum, Lightning Bomb, 1/6 of the Hinckwell Wares The party climbs upstairs, and arrive to a long corridor with a hall in the middle. The stairs continue up to another level, and there's another set of stairs across the hall that goes both down and up as well. In the hall there's a group of pirates handling two cannons. Next to the stairs is a door that can be opened from the side that the heroes are. The corridor ends to an open door.
JimBee Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 "I think we should open the door right in front of us." Hybros wonders if the party can pass through doors from both sides once they have opened them...
Sandy Posted January 26, 2012 Author Posted January 26, 2012 "I think we should open the door right in front of us." Hybros wonders if the party can pass through doors from both sides once they have opened them... OoC: Yes you can, as long as you don't lock them behind you. Hybros opens the nearest door, and is immediately met with a loud ruckus of blaring cannons and shouting men. The door leads to a terrace filled with gun-smoke. There's a huge cannon with a crew of pirates working on it, aiming it towards the Bonaparte fleet that floats in the sea below. If the party steps onto the terrace, the pirates will see them.
Etzel Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 "Good thing that the fleet is doing its job distracting the pirates. I think we should quietly close the door and continue down the corridor to the open door." Maurice also takes the opportunity to drink one of his bottles of Nostrum, some extra luck in the next battle could be good for him.
JimBee Posted January 27, 2012 Posted January 27, 2012 "Remember, the Bonapartes said that they could use our help if we could give it to them. I say we buy ourselves and our allies some more time by taking out those cannons."
Khorne Posted January 27, 2012 Posted January 27, 2012 "We'll leave the cannoneers for now and go through the open door. Finding the Bonaparte prisoner or Jolly Roger is our priority right now."
The_Customizer Posted January 27, 2012 Posted January 27, 2012 OOC:Back for a little while, I should be more active tomorrow. Agreed, finding Jolly Roger is the most important thing right now, and once we find him, we can probably make him reveal where the prison is.
Sandy Posted January 28, 2012 Author Posted January 28, 2012 The party continues through the open door on the opposite side of the corridor from the terrace. They come to a small room with a hallway extending onwards. There's nothing in the room but an eccentric table with knobs, panels and buttons on it. There's also two other doors further down the hallway.
Etzel Posted January 28, 2012 Posted January 28, 2012 "That strange table looks suspicious. I say we trash it! No good can come out of such contraption."
The_Customizer Posted January 28, 2012 Posted January 28, 2012 I agree, we should see what it is, and what it does, and then trash it! Or perhaps, it is used to control something, so that we may be able to use it against the pirates!
