Checking things out ...
The Captain of the Tolkien city guard wants to have a word with our team. We are waved through the checkpoints and gates, and sent directly to see her. On the way I check on Spot and make sure my stash of items is safe and still with him. We have Matus (a technowizard) with us, he has come with us from magestock. To prove his skills he "talks" to one of my guns which he says is sad, and needs some attention and to be serviced.
(FF: To the Captain's office)
The Captain asks after Ivan, leo shares the sad news with her. The team are debriefed on the attack, and that it definitely was not sanctioned, the border control leader decided to try and take out Tolkien. Also the alien gun that Ivan was carrying is a new type of weapon from the coalition and there is a "graveyard" of these new weapons. The Captain assigns the team a mission , a necromancer is operating along the border and needs to be "dealt with" we are offered a healthy purse to do this. The last known location of this necromancer is Elder town, there was an attack here.
Before leaving I want bath and to get supplies, and to service my weapons (who knew that was a thing!! ) When I am ready I meet the team and Annaballe, she informs us that a party of 4 consisting of 1 x cyberknight, 2 x human mercenaries, 1 x cybernetic human went out 2 weeks ago, have had regular contact until 4 days ago - just before the coalition attack.
The sheep are looking very unwell ( Bloody unnatural things!!) so a magical vet needs to be found within the town. The Vet April Babe examines the sheep, they are unusual and she comments that these type of animals usually come through rifts. The snake one is breaking down, we leave the sheep with April.
(Heading out of town)
Making camp for the night, I pull out the wizard stick I got from the necomany town, I ask Matus if he can use it, as I haven't been able to make it work since I acquired it. Matus can use it for spare parts, he informs me that it is kinda useless without the others, it is part of a larger network of wireless power - this is only one pole it needs the others to pass the power along.
In the morning , upon almost reaching Elder town, the town is on fire and seems to be in ruins. As we approach there is a large pyre with bodies burning in the centre of the entrance with a cyberknight body on the top. Estella jumps from the monster truck to check the body on the pyre. I ready my lightning, just incase, the villagers flee. One family recognise Estella as a cyber knight and speaks to her, it was not the villagers who killed the knight it was bandits with missles, the knight protected the village. The bandits have been stealing people and property, after talking to Estella, the cyberknights body is removed from the pyre to be kept until we return to collect him as proper funeral ceremonies need to be performed.
Signs of the Bandits fleeing can be seen in the forest to one side of the village, drag marks, trees knocked down it is very clear the direction we need to follow them. The hideout looks to be a stone barn in a clearing. There are 3 dead bodies in sight . These
look like the remainder of the Cyberknights party. A large Mech breaks through the side of the barn looking like he is carrying another body, upon sneaking around the barn to look in the hole, there are 3 villagers chained up inside, there are undead also. We need to be aware of the Bandits in the surrounding forest
Freehold
There are stores selling technowizard items. magical items, and supplies. The crowd seems like people on the run, or people who do not want to be found or noticed. As I look through the stores there is very little I can afford, not that I want anything I have seen. We go to a magical store that Leo has had the amulet fused into his badge., to collect this. Estella is communicated with by Annaballe via her radio, Tolkien is being attacked by the coalition. We leave immediately using the wagon and widowmakers large monster truck ( it still has the dick on the side) As we leave Freehold we see smoke, battle type explosions and the evidence of the attack.
The Coalition is covering the city from one side, shelling the city. We head back to Freehold to find a Technowizard to decode teh inforamtion that Sir Dan has from David's hard drive. Dan and Brunor meet Sargent Felix who is a technowizard and can help, he knows a guy in the technowizard town that will be able to help decode the information. I hope there is information to help Tolkien on it, concerning the movements of the coalition. Leo and Estella are on the battlements watching what is happening, Estella is in contact with Annaballe - the line may not be secure, she is told they are bunkered down in the city and are safe. Estella is told when the time is right she will know what to do ....
Pericles wants to visit the middle of town where the dragons are. I agree to go with him as I do not want him to go alone. We walk past Gargoyle guards, I have to pretend to be Pericles's slave I AM NOT IMPRESSED. We wander around and find a dragon who is willing to talk to Pericles, we are given directions, he is in this human form and is super rude about humans being subservient - he is clearly a speciest.
Pericles and I meet up with the rest of the team, we head to the village of Magestock. On the way we come across hover vehicles and skeleton robots. Bruner and Leo create a distraction for the robots. I create a mist of fear at the human soldiers. The hovercraft speeds off, soldiers falling off the sides . We follow, it is moving away from us at speed. Estella and Dan go for a couple of the fallen guys so we can question them. We gain a hovercraft from this.
We arrive at Magestock to the information that the attack on Tolkien has not been sanctioned, the general who guards the border has gone rouge. After 3 days of the attack, elementals come out of the ground, dragons join this force and they unleash on the army. Telekinesis is also used against the troops they turn on each other, everything within a 5 mile radius is raized and becomes a no-man's land.
There are rumors that out east there is old world technology and some werid stuff going on, extremley large rifts and could be worth investigation
missed session
missed session
meeting a friend ....
After spending a few months travelling after paying back the job debt to Penguin we find ourselves back on the road to Tolkien.
We meet a guy named Brunor Thunderhammer on the road he has a wagon with a device inside, the device produces sheep. He is heading to Tolkien to sell the device. We plan to travel together for a couple of days, I use my wings to do some re-con of the area we are travelling in. About 2km ahead of us there are large stone-like creatures travelling in the same direction as us. When I head back to tell the team, the device starts to spin backwards and produces a sheep, this sheep proceeds to be ripped open from the inside, stone wings emerge from the rips. We notice "bugmen" flying toward us. circling overhead. I use lightning to blow 1 up. Leo shoots 2 and kills 1
Necromancy is awful
With the death of the earth elemental the arena dome is crumbling, large pieces of the hardened earth are falling down risking all those left alive in the arena. Pericelus airlifts some of the contestants those who are willing to climb on his back. Renfield blows a hole in the wall in an attempt to make a door, i cast a water spell at the hold Renfield has started, this punches a hole through allowing those on this side of the arena to get out. Pericles lands and lets the contestants off his back, he has Ivan's body which has the "dragon translate" device. Dan recovers this with the intention of installing it on himself. The villagers speak to Leo, Carver and the elememental are not local they just showed up and started making the arena. Leo hands me the amulet which I detect that the amulet has been enhanced, I believe it is a concealment enhancer. I hold onto this.
As we watch the arena disintegrate back into the earth and how the land was before, Soldiers from Kingsdale arrive in the village to investigate the murderthon. Justine one of the survivors is injured, I heal her she goes with one contingent of the soldiers back to Kingsdale for further treatment. We join the other soilders in the convoy, while in the vehicle Dan throws one of the soldiers out to make more room. Leo comando rolls out of the vehicle to retrieve the soldier. Pericles steps over them both as he is following on foot in his dragon form. I use persuasion to calm the situation, we end up sitting with the soliders on one side as us on the other for the duration of the trip.
Once we arrive in Kingsdale, I look for a bathhouse and a place for us to stay.
MURDERTHON
Before I return Ivan's helemt, ( wow that thing is amazing what I could see through it, I must remember technology can sometimes be as good as my magic. ) I let the rest of team know about what I have seen and about the dirty Necomany at play
While a shooting toudement is going ahead, Pericles lands in dragon form with his griffin and set the targets on fire. This creates a distraction for Estella and Dan to find the void in the wall and dissapear into it.
Carver is trying to get teh attention of all the contestants so we can move onto the next event.
The teams all move toward where Ivan and I are standing, Pericelus moves toward me. Carver is moving to avoid Windowmaker, going around Pericles. We are not standing on the track, a team of juciers are walking arcoss the uncovered track, the necromany magic captures and graples them, The sun goes out, when we look up the earth elemental has closed the top of the arena in an earth dome .
The exits have also been blocked by the elemental. Two of the competitors takeon the elemental. one is impaled by a stalignite the elemental grows out of it's arm. The Widowmaker also takes on the elemental, he is stabbed. Pericelus disappears down a hole which has opened up underneath him.
Leo leaps into action, after my spell fails against the elemental and it summons a demon. He leaps off the podium runs backwards and launches a grenade at the demon. I detect that the demon is fire resitant (I Hope this is correct) I create a spell from my foul breath burst with water and manage to damage the demon. He turns toward me. Ivan shoots it in the eye, popping the eyeball which enrages the beast and it rushes him. Ivan is severely injured in this fight, I run and slide "risky business style" to his side to try and heal him. Carver has been killed during this time, Leo checks his body for magical items, he has a glowing necklace. Leo tries to break this while it is still around carver's neck. The demon charges Ivan and I , I am wounded.
Periceles has appeared out of the hole he fell down and bites the demon. Ivan is injured again in the battle. Leo shoots the demon in both eyes. Dan pops up out of the hole pericles came back to the surface through.
Leo holds the pendant and runs up to the earth elemental ordering it to stop killing the juicers.
Pericelus eats the demon.
Self defence force
We are tasked with going to the murderthon just outside kingsdale.
After the disagreement Leo paints Windowmakers vehicle with a large dick down the side with permanent non removable pink magic paint.
The arena is being built by an earth elemental, we see him clearly on teh outside of the earth wall building it higher .
Inside I meet Carver who seems to be running the Murderthon, he clarifies the rules around my powers. I cant use burst or cone template magic while participating in the race. I feel there is something wrong in the arena, Dan and Pericles seems able to use their weapons and powers during the race. During my conversation with Carver he admits there is something sinister happening within the teams, missing people mainly.
Leo, Estella and Ivan spend time in town and meet us back at the Horny Goat (Pub)
I discuss my concerns about the arena, Ivan lends me his multi optic helmet, Pericles lets me fly on his Griffin, I fly and scope out the town and the arena . I can see widowmaker and 2 others damaging the door, but the paint will not come off. I land and enter the arena. There is clearly Necromancy at play here - especially coming from the track set up. Teh track is covered in Tarps and I cant see underneath. I tell Leo about the Magic I sense. I am clearly unhappy as I hate the necomancy magics .
Trial by combat
Annaballe joins us in MAdtown and goes to investigate the David situation. We still need to come up with the 1/2 million dollars. Ivan organises some "prize" fights at the area to make up the funds for the trail.
Sir Dan Vs Juicer - bet 105k - win 126120k
Ivan Vs Normal Guy - Bet 105k - win 176568k
Sir Dan vs Juicer - bet 126120k - win 176568
Sir Dan vs Pericles - stages to win all the money
This last fight is a catastrophic failure, the crowd can see this is staged and we are saved by the guy in the suit (penguin) his price for this is we are bound to him for any job he needs doing. Annabelle comes back to us after talking to david, she says he is genuinly sorry and was acting to save tolkien. He has already sold the information to the Federation of magic. I am upsetthat he is not going to be held or taken to tolkien, He is to be released .
consequences?
the good guys?
The sheriff and his deputies arrive at the alleyway. There are only 3 survivors , 2 are the abductees and 1 is a gang member. All others have been killed. We give our weapons to the sheriff and follow him to the sheriff's office. Leo speaks to teh sheriff and finds out he is at the mercy of the gangs running the town. Leo proposes a trial by combat, as the sheriff can't release us we need to be held accountable for the gang deaths. After an hour of waiting in the office a guy in a fancy suit shows up, he is making enquiries for the federation of magic about a magical disturbance that happened earlier today. I'm sure this is about me and the vision I had, thankfully no one noticed at the time,. He alludes to the fact that a team like us is being looked out for if we can keep an eye out, luckily we don't fit the description due to the "rich kid" line we came into town on. The sheriff brings a negotiation back to the table 1/2 million purse, and the combat will only be one of us. Leo adds accommodation to be supplied while we are in town.
As we are escorted from the sheriff's office we see David waiting across the street, Dan sprints across the street and grabs David by the throat and takes him to the sheriff's office. I bear witness to the sheriff about my abduction, being knocked out and tied up in tolkien. I leave the offcie after this, standing outside with Leo and our hotel escort.
Combat in the alleyway
Combat
Leo shoots first and we are in combat with the gang, using barrels as shields and trying to get the victims away from them. After an intense fight the sheriff arrives
We arrive in Madtown
Arrival in Madtown
I heal Leo on the last leg on the journey.
Dan catches up and tells us he has been following us since the vampire attack, I'm glad I decided to leave his horse behind for him now. He has a copy of the hard drive so we don't have to hunt David for that. Although I want some retribution for his abduction of me, I want him brought to some kind of justice.
When we reach Madtown the airship is parked in a designated area, there is an armed guard surrounding the parking area. It is very clear that the town is set up for defence. The plan is that Leo will play himself (a rich kids who is obnoxious with bodyguards and servants) the idea of this is to glean the information we require and get the supplies we need. Before we depart the ship the sheriff boards, tells us the rules of the town: no collation tech, no trouble, no mega damage weapons. Dan leaves his weapons on board. Leo pushes past the sheriff and strides into town, the group has no option but to follow. I apologise to the sheriff for his bad manners.
The team visit the "Techno Cave" I stand outside with Dan. There are juicers and techno enhanced (TE) beings all drinking.
An overwhelming pain shoots through my head, I fall to my knees holding my head. Visions of the back of David's head swim through my vision, he is in front of the federation of magic, I hear dice rolling, music and the tinkling of glasses . Dan doesn't notice i have had a "moment" He is watching a group of juicers and TE take a couple of less enhanced beings by force. Leo sees this as he leaves the Cave. He follows them, we follow him toward an alleyway, Leo calls out ..... Combat
The Hunt for David
Session 17 - the road to madtown
Iva, Leo, Pericles and I are going to Mad Town to find David after my abduction. Madtown is a black market town full of mercenaries so we should fit in fine. Leo of course hires an sirdhip to fly / sail the leyline to Madtown.
Once aboard Pericles curls up on a large flat part of the deck and snoozes. Ivan and Leo "titanic" on the foredeck. I jump from the back of the ship to try out my wings, THEY ARE AMAZING!! I can travel so fast (150mph) zooming up and down past the ship. One one of these looped passes I see a flock of birds swooping and diving over a spot just off the leyline. I land to investigate , walking to what the birds are so interested in I find a pile of bodies, some are disembowled and there are pieces lying around. I kneel to check the injuries on the body closest to me. A "bugman" appears from the area in front of me. I radio the team about what I have found and the presence of the bugman, when i spin around there are more. I am terrified and still alone, I cast foul breath burst and mange to kill one. I can see Pericles flying towards me and the ship starting to lower as I run toward thr leyline. Percelus flys over me and I run beneath him. A rope hangs from the rear of the ship, Ivan is descending the rope. As I reach the leyline I activate my wings
The Road to Madown - Hunting for David
Session 18 - the road to madtown
Pericles circles back and lands on the airship. Ivan and Leo have descended the rope and are now running toward the ship to board. The Captain asks if we are turning back. I am unsure if we should. Ivan makes the decision to turn back. Leo is injured.
We see Dan on his horse galloping along the leyline behind us
