Journey to the Hammer 24/01/2458-05/02/2458
General Summary
"Maybe she's just not that interested in you Alton." "We are working as a team - apparently I'm not allowed to be interested in other firearms!"
Questionable Accommodations and Questions
- Ryltar was allowed to use Rust's room, but found leather scraps all over the floor and the sheets in the bed still bloodied and covered in unnamed gunk from when Rust allowed the captives from Amberlight to take refuge there. He instead set up shop in the mess hall.
- Fernando was apparently missing for a time.
- Alton questioned Ryltar about vampires and the elven lady he had seen when exiting the ethereal plane. Ryltar put forth that Kayelin the Scarred had been a red winged elf with one arm fitting her description. All he knew was that she had been one of the original survivors of the massacre at Myth Elin. There had been some conflict with the Company of Bright Flame at the time and as far as Ryltar knew, she was exiled from the Remnant.
- Ryltar expressed interest in Alton's bow when he was informed that it could detect nearby vampires. He then expressed concern based on the fact that, if Kayelin had in fact turned and then been sealed in the bow as Kels had been sealed in his sword, there was a chance that her vampirism could be contagious to Alton while he was attuned to the bow.
Workout Session
- Captain Farren recruited Mirdock Shane and Gore the Barbarian to workout. It was chest day, and they used the heaviest flour sacks they could find. They also used chalk. Hopefully Krumbleton won't notice if any got in the flour.
- Krumbleton prepared a hearty chili for the tired party members.
A Call to Donnie
- Having not heard from Donnie in a while, Farren sent her a message, asking if she had got the door open.
- Donnie accused Farren of teaming up with Wyldo against her.
- Donnie had not opened the door. Apparently the hammer was heavy. Also, she warned the captain to be careful of the frost giant army.
Encouraging Finn
- The captain once again assured Finn that he had done his best and that however the war above was going, it was not his fault. Some people just want power and can't be reasoned with.
Gim Has Learned New Magic
- Harold went to go see if Gim had learned any new spells
- Gim acted strangely, apparently embarrassed that he, the king, might be falling behind Fernando in spellcasting.
- Gim assured Harold that he had learned plenty but then refused to demonstrate.
- Gim actually seemed worried his spell might fail but claimed he was just worried about hurting Harold.
- Harold though Gim was lying to him. The captain attempted to settle things with zone of truth but Harold refused to willingly fail.
- During this, the captain sensed eleven creatures within his circle. He managed to track down a little fluff creature that had been making fart sounds all day. He originally suspected the hidden tooter was Alton.
- Gim eventually relented and cast his new spell on Harold, apparently relieved it worked. He claimed he held back.
Fernando's Whereabouts
- Alton attempted to listen to the bow.
- He heard the sound of a gentle waterfall splashing down into a pool and then felt like his arm had been torn off.
- He overheard Fernando talking to someone outside the door and then moved quickly enough to catch sight of Fernando being tugged along by a dark elf child.
- Alton attempted to follow them, but somehow, despite his impressive perception, lost sight of the girl.
- The captain called for battle stations.
Fight
- The party fought three vampiric dragons.
- There was the sound of another set of wingbeats off in the distance but a forth dragon did not join the fray.
- Finn and Mirdock were almost killed, but quickly healed by Krumbleton.
- Harold refused to let the vampiric mist that remained of the dragons escape and sucked one into his helmet, knocking himself unconscious but changing his helmet to have the appearance of decaying dragon scales on one side.
- Rust carelessly attempted to heal everyone he could, causing several bursts of wild magic and then a zone of anti magic.
- Alton tried to activate the oath bow. He briefly sported red spectral wings and spoke in a voice not his own.
- Krumbleton kept people alive.
- One of the ballistae was destroyed
Journey Resumed
- According to Fernando, the drow girl wanted to follow her brother but didn't want her brother or anyone else to find her.
- Ryltar went to go look for his sister.
- Wyldo made it to the deck of the ship, wondering what the heck was going on.
- Crunch was found in the kitchen, also concerned.
- The captain, after healing Finn and Mirdock, went to rest. He then changed his mind and took the wheel, to let the battered crew sleep.
- Alton resumed trying to communicate with his bow.
- Rust went to complete his crafting
