Continued from '''[[The Deep Dark]]'''

Continued from '''[[Overview of the Dungeon]]'''
+
'''The DM:''' Climbing up to the Great Hall, you're free to talk to one another.
  
−
'''The DM:''' Lexent is assaulted by a flush of who knows how many bats that come flooding out of the darkness. There's no chance to see the room beyond; Lexent is attacked four times and the other bats burst into the rest of the room.  Lexent, I hit you three times, '''<span style="color:red">taking 1</span>''', '''<span style="color:red">1</span>'''  and '''<span style="color:red">2</span>''' damage.
+
: At a game table, I'd certainly be asking at this time how the overall was; and how the party feels about the last encounter.  It always helps to get some feedback.
  
−
'''The DM:''' Vafrandir, roll a d6 for initiative.
+
'''[[Lexent]]:''' I make sure to retrieve my godentag on the way.
  
−
'''The DM:''' Those are three separate attacks, so none of them have enough to stun Lexent.
+
'''[[Lexent]]:''' Suprising. I'm glad I tried talking. If Mok-Losh is being honest with us, then he is certainly more than we would have been able to handle.
  
−
'''[[Vafrandir]]:''' 3
+
'''[[Vafrandir]]:''' Agreed. I always leave these encounters feeling there's more I should be asking but I guess real life is like that sometimes too.
  
−
'''The DM:''' I have a 6.  Two bats swing around Lexent's head; the rest of the swarm continues through Vafrandir, who gets attacked 5 times as they rush past him into the main room.  I hit once with a 16, '''<span style="color:red">causing 2</span>''' damage.  The other one that hits rolls — I don't believe this! — two criticals back to back, for triple damage, '''<span style="color:red">causing 3</span>''' total.  This second attack ends in the bat sinking its teeth into Vafrandir's shoulder, through his robe and tunic, clutching.
+
'''[[Lexent]]:''' Yes, but it felt like the lines of questioning were starting to hit dead ends.
−
: '''The DM:''' I need to make a correction here, Vafrandir.  According to the [https://wiki.alexissmolensk.com/index.php/Bat_(giant) giant bat description], , the "clutch" only means that the bat will hang on and attack at +3 to hit each round after, until it is killed.
 
  
−
'''The DM:''' Both bats miss Lexent.
+
'''[[Lexent]]:''' "So what do we think? Shall we just rely on Mok-Losh to hold Grond in check for the year?"
  
−
'''The DM:''' Cruelly, let’s wait to continue next time.  The bats will be spread from Lexent in 0824 to 1524; you’re uncertain how many bats there are at this time.  We’ll start with the party’s attack on Tuesday.
+
'''[[Lexent]]:''' "Also, If we'd like, I could commune with the gods to try to ascertain if Mok-Losh is being truthful and accurate."
  
−
'''[[Vafrandir]]:''' A challenge behind each door! Until then, out.
+
'''The DM:''' One thing you can usually count on; creatures with tons of power and without reason to con you have no reason to lie.  If it was on Grond’s side, don’t you think it and Grond would have just gone hogwild on your selves?  Consider.  Why did Grond not attack you on the surface.  Why was the dungeon so passive?  It never came to you, though you made your presence very well known.  The last overt thing it did was to use a dead goblin as a puppet to tell you to go away; and nothing whatsoever when you came back again.
 +
:'''[[Lexent]]:''' My larger concern is with the accuracy of his claims that he can hold Grond in check.
 +
:: '''The DM:''' Ah.
 +
:'''[[Lexent]]:''' Another possibility is that he is not as powerful as he claims/seems and that he is lying to us to protect Grond who now fears us. I don't think this is likely, but it is possible.
 +
::: '''The DM:''' Go fight him.  Find out.
  
−
'''The DM:''' Out. Hope you guys are well. See you Tuesday.
+
'''Pandred''': That's fair enough. We should have asked about that one skeleton. I forgot entirely in the moment. Either way we'd do well I think to make a quick check of the remaining area available to us. Mok-Losh says it's nothing but flies, so as far as I can tell that means nothing but easy access to what few "valuables" remain here.
  
−
'''[[Vafrandir]]:''' What are my options for attacking this bat clutching me? I assume I can't swing my sword at it.
+
'''The DM:''' In any case, for cleaning the dungeon out to the extent you did, and more or less in a forced retreat, please give yourself a 10% bonus to your present experience.  For example, if you had 3,000, you’d now have 3,300.
  
−
'''The DM:''' In.  Been working on the rules.  The bat page is linked a few lines up.  I’ll repeat the important lines here:
+
'''The DM:''' You can search for the next six hours but you don’t find anything alive.  And there’s nothing at the bottom of the pool, either.  You can’t get through the magician’s door, at least by any means you possess.  If you have unknowns left about the dungeon you’ve seen, you could always return and ask Mok-Losh another question.  It’s not going anywhere.
−
: Attacking a bat while being "clutched" gives a -2 [[Roll to Hit|to hit]] penalty to the defender.  Others may attack the bat with weapons, all attack rolls of 2, 3 or 4 counts as damage done to the bat's victim.  If the bat is stunned, it will cease to clutch and drop dazed to the ground.  Up to eight bats can clutch a single medium-sized opponent.
 
−
: So, essentially, you attack it normally, but you risk causing bad damage to yourself; the smaller the weapon you use here, the better, as you only need to stun the bat to have it drop off.
 
  
−
'''[[Pandred]]''': "Odds, get under there!" I'll point underneath his nearest bed or table. He doesn't have a figure, but I'm assuming he's nearby because he gave me the crossbow.  If he's not in the room, ignore me. I'll dip into 1626 and swap to handaxe.
+
'''[[Lexent]]:''' Mok-Losh did mention the skeleton, calling it a crypt thing and saying he had it trapped.
−
:'''[[Pandred]]''': "Get out of the way!" The swarm might blow past us and outdoors with minimal damage if we let it. Find a corner to wedge in and fight from there if you must.
 
  
−
'''[[Lexent]]:''' In. I close the door and attack the nearest bat(s?) in 0824 ''To Hit:'' '''7''' ''Damage:'' '''7'''
+
'''[[Lexent]]:''' That is amazing. I am now 4 XP away from 4th level.
  
−
'''The DM:''' Everyone stop talking and let me get a post up.
+
::: '''The DM:''' Oh, that’s cruel.  I should throw in a fight with a fly.
 +
::::'''[[Lexent]]:'''Nah, It'll happen soon enough, and I've done the same to players, so karma I guess.
  
−
'''The DM:''' Protocol, Lexent.  Did I say it was your turn?  I know that stuff passes muster in other DM's campaigns, but that's why my game isn't a ridiculous muddle.
+
'''[[Lexent]]:''' So shall we call this concluded for now and head back to camp?
−
:'''[[Lexent]]:''' I'm sorry, you said we would start with the party's turn on Tuesday.
 
  
−
=== Party's Round 02 ===
+
'''Pandred''': Suppose we should. Too bad, I was ready to crack this thing like an egg, but it looks like the wights have already been separated and the yolk is being guarded.
−
'''The DM:''' And we will, Lexent.  When I say so.
+
:'''[[Lexent]]:''' Well played.
  
−
[[File:Bat Round 02b.jpg|right|560px|thumb]]
+
'''[[Lexent]]:''' OK, We head back to camp. Let's not forget the lamp oil and vinegar from the wet storage (not sure if we moved it out yet or not.)
−
'''The DM:''' When I need to set up a round, it is difficult if everyone is talking. I joined 20 minutes early today so I could get the round set up and get the game going.  But after saying “In”, you flooded the page and THREE TIMES now I’ve had to rewrite content, because it got eaten.  So, please, everyone, a little patience, so I can get this set up.
 
  
−
'''The DM:''' Pandred, seeing the location of the bats, feel free to adjust your intended point of movement. Lexent, attack the left or right bat, rather than the hex number.  Picture the bats, except those two that are hovering around Lexent, as flying through the room rather than hovering; treat them as coming towards you (so you can attack them from an adjacent hex).  Okay.  NOW you can swing.
+
'''The DM:''' Feel a little coitus interruptus? That’s fair.
  
−
'''[[Lexent]]:''' I close the door and attack the left bat ''To Hit:'' '''16''' ''Damage:'' '''4'''
+
== Evening, July 19th ==
 +
'''The DM:''' The weather is cool, dry, with a few clouds and barely any wind at all.  I presume you'll camp here for the night.
  
−
'''[[Lexent]]:''' May it be assumed that the sappers will be willing to attack the bats?
+
'''[[Lexent]]:''' Yes. We camp here tonight. How are the sappers feeling about this outing?
  
−
'''[[Vafrandir]]:''' Would my Boxing ability give me any additional oomph on a pummel? I don't want to slice my neck open. I'm not sure if you've covered that ability yet, I couldn't find it on either wiki.
+
'''The DM:''' Well, they want to know if you still want them to finish clearing out a pathway from the second entrance they’ve widened.
  
−
'''[[Vafrandir]]:''' Pandred's idea is good to get out of the way, unless we want to try and kill 30 bats!
+
'''Pandred''': No, I suppose not.
  
−
'''The DM:''' They’ll have to Lexent, out of self-defense.  You kill the left hand bat.
+
'''Pandred''': Out for a bit.
  
−
'''Marcule''' In
+
'''[[Vafrandir]]:''' Some internet trouble here and there, sorry. I believe Mok-Losh, so let's stop back in a few months from now and see if things have changed.
  
−
'''[[Lexent]]:''' Marit attacks the bat in the lower left of 1524 ''To Hit:'' '''7''' ''Damage:'' '''3'''. If she has the AP she will then move into 1626. Vafrandir, how many AP should the sappers have?
+
'''The DM:''' I apologize.  I wound up being pulled away and I failed to say "out."  I'm moving this Monday and things are piling up.  Incidentally, I won't have the internet between Sunday and the following Saturday, so running the game will be hard.  I could stand on my deck and shout, but I think if I could do it loud enough for you to hear me, the neighbours would complain.
 +
:'''[[Vafrandir]]:''' I will also be moving during that time and therefore in a similar situation. I will stand outside and listen very hard.
  
−
'''Marcule''' I cast chromatic orb.
+
'''The DM:''' In all honesty I was writing a post on the side of playing here and forgot entirely that I was playing here.  So, not actually related to "moving," except that I'm obviously seeking any sort of escapism I can find.  Again, my apologies.  I should have been here.
  
−
'''The DM:''' Vafrandir, wrote it on the unarmed combat sage study page.  Your boxing gives you +2 to the normal pummelling, so d4-1, +strength, +1 if you’re wearing gauntlets.  Costs 1 AP to punch.
+
'''[[Vafrandir]]:''' No worries.
  
−
'''The DM:''' Oddsdrakken will dive under a bed.
+
'''[[Vafrandir]]:''' As I see it we have two major decisions to make. First, what to do about the Swedish gold. We could take it for ourselves and no one would be none the wiser. We could try to return it and gain favor (or be hanged as thieves). Second, if we should seek these goblins and return the shield as a token for their suffering under Grond. I was looking back through posts to see where exactly Arduin said he had heard of goblins - we have no idea where Roxot Horn might be, but perhaps the Father will know.
  
−
'''The DM:''' Marit misses.  Treat all the sappers as 4 AP.
+
'''The DM:''' There’s always a risk, either way.
  
−
'''The DM:''' Marcule, if I hit you with a bat, the spell will be ruined before you can discharge it. Do you want to reconsider?
+
'''The DM:''' ''Heading'' [[Morning_of_July_18th,_in_Camp#Dilhak|Dilhak]], quote “Arduin knows of a large goblin tribe east of Bronnoysund. It dwells in the wilderness between Norway and the gnome kingdom of Vastenjaur. Both Lexent and Marcule would know that Vastenjaur covers much of northern real world Sweden.”
  
−
'''The DM:''' What do Helga and Asger do?
+
'''[[Vafrandir]]:''' Everything is a risk. That's the fun.
  
−
'''[[Vafrandir]]:''' I'll sheathe my sword and pummel the bat. '''19 raw, 18 to hit; 3 raw, 3 dmg'''.
+
'''[[Vafrandir]]:''' Thank you! I had it more or less right in my mind. Quite a ways off given that we are in southern-ish Norway.
  
−
'''The DM:''' Kills it, Vafrandir.
+
'''The DM:''' Arduin can attest that it isn’t that far by boat.  But this being the height of summer, in a few months it gets very cold and dark.
−
 
−
'''Marcule:''' Yes i will retract that spell use.
 
  
−
'''Marcule:''' I swing at the bat right next to me. 3 - Miss
+
'''[[Lexent]]:''' I think that both of those goals are admirable, though the goblins and the shield interest me more. Are there any (yes/no) questions that the party would like me to ask my gods to give us more information on which to base our decision?
 +
:'''[[Vafrandir]]:''' I'm interested in that too. But "do nothing" is an option there, and its not really for the gold. So I guess questions related to that. Is anyone actively looking for it, are there location spell on it, etc.
  
−
'''Pandred''': Helga stays put, ready with handaxe to swipe as they go by. My movement stays the same.
+
'''Pandred''': Don't forget all that to-do with Hamish.
  
−
'''The DM:''' I take it you’re darting behind the pillar in 1626.  I’ll give Pandred first call on that space and rule that Marit moves into 1526.  Without anyone giving word on what Asger does, I’ll leave him in 1926. Any last shout outs?
+
'''Pandred''': It sounds like we should take a look at our current assets, and figure out what to do from there.
  
−
'''The DM:''' Going once ...
+
'''[[Lexent]]:''' I cast ''augury'' and ask the following questions:
 +
:'''[[Lexent]]:''' Is Mok-Losh correct about his ability to contain Grond?
 +
:'''[[Lexent]]:''' Is Hamish Ross still alive?
 +
:'''[[Lexent]]:''' Is the goblin tribe that dwells east of Bronnoysund the same as those referred to at Roxot Horn?

'''[[Vafrandir]]:''' Nothing here.

Continued from The Deep Dark

The DM: Climbing up to the Great Hall, you're free to talk to one another.

At a game table, I'd certainly be asking at this time how the overall was; and how the party feels about the last encounter. It always helps to get some feedback.

Lexent: I make sure to retrieve my godentag on the way.

Lexent: "Also, If we'd like, I could commune with the gods to try to ascertain if Mok-Losh is being truthful and accurate."

The DM: One thing you can usually count on; creatures with tons of power and without reason to con you have no reason to lie.

Lexent: So shall we call this concluded for now and head back to camp?

Pandred: Suppose we should. Too bad, I was ready to crack this thing like an egg, but it looks like the wights have already been separated and the yolk is being guarded.

Lexent: Well played.

Lexent: OK, We head back to camp. Let's not forget the lamp oil and vinegar from the wet storage (not sure if we moved it out yet or not.)

The DM: Feel a little coitus interruptus? That’s fair.
