Masked Builder Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Alexis looked longingly at the flute before speaking. "I would be quite happy to take the flute but if Ellaria would like it it's hers." She sighed wearily and thanked Ocven for his help before dismissing him.
JimBee Posted January 20, 2012 Author Posted January 20, 2012 There is one path forward, Northeast. Will the heroes take it?
CMP Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 "Can't imagine it doin' us much good to sit around here."
Sandy Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Alexis looked longingly at the flute before speaking. "I would be quite happy to take the flute but if Ellaria would like it it's hers." She sighed wearily and thanked Ocven for his help before dismissing him. Ellaria smiles at her friend. "I have my scrolls, so you can keep the flute, Lexie. Although Namyrra and Nur can also wield it."
Quarryman Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 "I have my scrolls, so you can keep the flute, Lexie. Although Namyrra and Nur can also wield it." "Well, music was never my thing so if Alexis wants it, she can have it."
Jebediahs Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Loot: Flute of the Magi - Alexis Fenral "Alexis it is, then." En Sabah Nur hands the magical flute to Alexis. "I can't think of a better owner for the pipe than a magic-wieldin' elf who summons dragons." Nur looks back to the maddening jungle maze and sincerely wishes to explore its southern region more before heading further North as the magical compasses have been pointing but his party mememberswhoneednowater seem anxious to catch their quarry. "Let's go Northeast."
Masked Builder Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Alexis blushes "Oh sorry I forgot you two." "Thanks you for the flute though." She smiles at everyone.
JimBee Posted January 21, 2012 Author Posted January 21, 2012 QM Note: Sorry for the recent delays, I've been finishing up with exams. With the loot divided the party heads Northwest. The come to a final clearing, where they find two elaborately-dressed men speaking in hushed tones. "This must be him... there's no other explanation for that door ahead and how we mysteriously ended up on this island without a scratch." "But how do we get it open? It is enchanted by a powerful mage, so we can't even touch the thing. We should've kidnapped a Ziegfried..." "Like they would help even if we tried to force them. They put him here for a reason, and with great difficulty I heard. After all this time, I doubt they would want him out again." "But if we were to release him... perhaps he would reward us?" "Gold isn't everything little brother. You have to think on your feet before... before... hey!" The men appear to have noticed the party entering the clearing. "There you are, 'heroes'. We were beginning to think you had died in the storm... but no, the wizard wouldn't risk sinking a ship that he needs!" "It's a shame really, you coming all the way here just to kill us... oh yes, we know about the price on our heads. It's just too bad it will all be in vein after we kill you first!"

Sandy Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 "Now somehow I'm not surprised to find these two here", Ellaria said to her companions. "I guess after we're done with these two we should find this wizard they were talking about and ask just what exactly brought us here on this island. But now, we have a job to finish!" Ellaria consumes some Smelling Salts to gain a hastened effect, and then uses her Scroll of Blindess on Dmitri Finegold.
CMP Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 "Anyone else thinkin' there may be more to this quest than we signed up for?" Atramor stabs at Dmitri Finegold from the front row.
Bricksandparts Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 Alf attacks Edward Finegold from the front row! "Anyone else thinkin' there may be more to this quest than we signed up for?" "Alf think this just beginning!"
Masked Builder Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 "I shall attack both men with my new flute from the back row." I've always thought that men were odd she thought to herself.
Quarryman Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 "Well, well, well, how incredibly convenient to come across our prey at this remote and seemingly deserted island.. " Namyrra proceeds to consume her smelling salts and then prepares to cast a Darkness spell at Dmitri Finegold from the back row
Jebediahs Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 Nur takes a page from his battle-hardend female companions' playbook and consumes a vial of Smelling Salts before directing an earth spell at Dmitri Finegold.

Alf can then switch his attention to Dmitri or else risk waking Ed." OoC: Or just let the die roll, JimB. Alf will miss his swing anyway ensuring the Finegold stays asleep.

Half of the group consumes their Smelling Salts, quickening themselves for the battle. Ellaria then blinds Dmitri, who cannot attack for the next three turns. Namrrya casts a Great Spell of Darkness ([[6x2]+14]x2=52), and Nur attacks both enemies with a torrential downpour (19 to all enemies except Edward, for 12). Atramor stabs Dmitri (20), but Alexis causes the foe to call another ally to the field, and then receives a slash from Edward's sword. Alf fends the younger brother off with his Meteor Blade (20-7=13).

Sandy Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 OoC: I believe Alexis should now be at 18/24 health, since she was standing in the back row when she was attacked. "Ah, another enemy! Now's our chance to get rid of Dmitri before he escapes. Let's focus most of our attacks on him, okay?" The hastened Ellaria attacks twice at Dmitri Finegold from the front row.
CMP Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 Atramor also stabs at Dmitri Fingegold from the front row. McCafferey continues flapping around the air, eyeing the battle from above with an almost satisfied expression.
Quarryman Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 "Hah! Take that! And yes Ellaria, we should focus on Dmitri to avoid him escaping!" Namyrra prepares to twice cast Darkness spells at Dmitri Finegold from the back row. OoC: and since I did a great spell that should be 52 damage, not 40. (2x6+14)x2 = 52
JimBee Posted January 22, 2012 Author Posted January 22, 2012 QM Note: Thanks for the corrections. Fixed.
Jebediahs Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 "Nice job, Alf. You seem to be winning the duel with the younger brother. Keep it up." Nur closes the distance and attacks Dmitri Finegold twice from the front row with his dagger.

Namrrya first casts a Darkness spell on the criminal (20x2=40), and then a Magic Burst of Ice on all enemies (20 to all except Edward, for 13). Ellaria misses, Dmitri tries to swing at Atramor but is unsuccessful due to his blinded state. Nur stabs Dmitri with his dagger, and Edward tosses a handful of flashbang bombs at Alexis, which confuses her for the next three turns. With spots appearing in her vision, Alexis accidentally attacks her leader for 21 damage, which knocks him out.

Sandy Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 Ellaria gasps in horror as she sees Alexis turn her arrow on Nur and knocking the mage out. "Lexie, what's the matter with you?! Oh, they've addled your mind... Let me remedy the situation, if you excuse the pun." Ellaria tosses a Remedy at Alexis to remove her confused state, and uses a Phoenix Essence on En Sabah Nur to bring their leader back to his senses.
