To start, experience for surviving: Trolls, Treants, Pixies, Boar, Giant Spiders, and Unicorns.
Ozzle, Razk, Scratch, Tox, and Tarkin each get 2000.
-
The fire begins burn more and more around you, only the recent long bout of rain is slowly it. Several brothers are on the ground...Grozik and Drax. All of you are hurt, although Khraz seems 'okay'
What do you do?
-
Tox takes a big step away from Always Angry Brother and Almost as Big brother. He keeps his spear lengthened and pointed at Always Angry Brother. He also looks confused, angry and terrified, all at the same time.

Scratch will go over and cast 2 Cure Light Wounds, one on each and wake them up. Once Grozik is awake, Scratch will beat him back into unconsciousness for defying the will of Dedestroyt
-
You realize before you heal either of them that their state is not do to external wounds. Both are incapacitated from using their powers.
That said, I believe several brothers are hurt.
-
Then I will heal whoever I can, then wait patiently for Grozik to regain consciousness and, if needs, regain (most of) his mental faculties, then i will beat him into unconsciousness
-
Recap please?
-

He did not intend for that result so Grozik will help you rekill alway angry brother. Of course we both know that isn't always angry brother and then Grozik will go to temple to pray for an atonement.
-
OOC: I feel slighlty deceived by DMDerek's description of the situation. If I felt he was dead then I would have never tried my power on him.
-
After some discussion, while Grozik still collapses, and Khraz still looks undead...he does not have fangs and his body does not appear healed after he charges in and crushes the trolls. Khraz is fighting with his torso torn open and bleeding badly.
He still moves in a destroys two of the trolls, I assume that Tox, Tarkin, and Ozzle shoot and throw into the other two dropping them as well.
Drax and Grozik are on the ground. Was Razk conscious? Scartch can go after he responds to my message.

Yes, Ozzle will help skewer the trolls with his spear and burn them once they're down.
-
Khraz is as confused as the rest of you...and very angry right now. He shakes his head side to side as if trying to clear his thoughts. When he sees Tox pointing his spear at him and some of the others staring his way he snarls..."What?"
-
To set the scene:
It is two rounds after Khraz was 'killed'.
The trolls are destroyed.
Ozzle is no longer on fire, and the fire walls he created are dissipating. The trees are smoldering in places and may soon catch on fire.
Khraz is standing among the destroyed trolls. He has just crushed the last one. His sword is in hands and he looks a mess. You can all feel the anger radiating from him. His wounds are grievous, and none of you are sure how he is not dead. With the exception of scratch, you all see a golden glow emanating from his chest, which is partially exposed).
Tox is standing at the ready with spear leveled at Khraz.
Scratch is standing not far away trying to figure things out.
None of you can see Drax, whever he is.
Tarkin is watching everything and is farther back from Khraz.
Razk is on the ground, either unconscious or playing dead.
Grazik is on the ground where he collapsed after doing something to Khraz.
-
I should note one minor change. Grazik did not go over to Khraz body after he was torn apart. Rather he reached out for Khraz before his body hit the ground from 20 feet away and then he collapsed and Khraz stood.
-
Recap please?
Anyone?
-
I have posted a recap on the website.
-
Anyone?
Brothers track traitor sparkle face but not gain ground and whole forest hates us. First, herd of angry horses with horns charge us. Tox want to run away but horses too fast so stand and fight. Horses keep healing but eventually kill two. Blind brother tried wrestling one of horses. Take horns and meat and hide. Meat gives Hates Fey Brother bad wind.
More tracking next day but accursed pixies surround brothers. Keep knocking brothers out with arrows. Eventually Balls of Fire Brother grab tree pixies hiding in and make whole tree burn. Then Balls of Fire brother like zombie for next couple days. Not big change really.
Next day we start running to try and make up ground on traitor sparkle face. When brothers stop to check for scent trees attack. Brothers not have axes to fight trees so brothers retreat. More running and now pack of owl bears tracking brothers. Always Angry Brother make brothers run fast. Come to big spider web blocking path. Tox and Always Angry Brother burn and cut through and brothers run again. Make camp and pack of trolls attack. Not good. Tox and Always Angry Brother and Almost as Big Brother kill some right away but some brothers not burn like Tox say. Some brothers say wait till all dead to burn so they all got back up. Tox wants to be called Has Common Sense Brother by those brothers now. Trolls start winning. Cleric brothers keep most brothers up (cursed Dedestroyt won't heal Tox!) but some gang up on Always Angry Brother and tear him apart. Then Almost As Big Brother changes Power to Falan and makes Always Angry Brother into Even Angrier Vampire. Even Angrier Vampire kills rest of trolls. Almost As Big Brother stands around like zombie. Maybe getting yelled at in Dedestroyt's Realm.

Are the Owlbears still on our trail? Do we hear their screeches in the distance?

No

When someone relates what appears to have happened to Khraz, he walks over to him, punching Grazik in the chest for good measure if he passes him, when he gets within touching distance he says to the others, "Watch, and tell me what happens."
Then he casts a cure light wounds spell on Khraz
-
Is Khraz still raging?
-
Just so you know you might actually kill me if you punch me. I am sure a healing check would tell you that.
-
You have probably never seen anyone as sick a grozik looks unless that person was already dead for several days.
-
Is Khraz still raging?
Yes
-
Yes
Okay, I'll set my spear for a charge in case he comes at me, but I won't outwardly attack him unless he does something that Ozzle perceives as truly undead in nature like drain the blood of a brother or summon undead.

You deftly duck out of the way of angry brother's snarl and swipe and heal him, the wound, which seems impossible to be heals does miraculously close a little.
-
Scratch will bob-and-weave as necessary and hit him with another cure light wounds and then use all of his 0 level cures as well. He will expend few Ki-Fortifies as well if necessary
Before Scratch's 2nd round of action, I need to know if anyone else who is able does anything in the 1st round (Grozik can't).
-
If Khraz still 'looks' like he needs healing, Scratch will use his Touch of Repose Domain ability and heal him for another 2d6
-
He is clearly in need after the first heal, but he just as clearly looks as if he is not calmed by the healing. Razk, Ozzle, Tarkin, Tox can all act. Drax is no where to be seen, and not in a good condition.
-

I set to receive charge and ready my action. Since we're out of biscuits, there's not much I can do for Drax.
-

As long as Always Angry Brother doesn't attack any other brothers Tox holds.
-
Razk and Tarkin?
-
Tarkin gives his un-brother room, backing off and hiding for now. A spear in his paws.
-
So as Scratch blindly tries to heal Khraz; Drax is nowhere to be seen, Grozik is on the ground, the the others back away defensively.
The forest is slowly burning around you. Khraz angrily chops into the troll carcasses, relieving them of the last of their life and severing their souls with The Finisher.
Scratch ducks in between blows again and heals Khraz. Again, the wounds that appear deadly close on his chest. The glow that was around his chest fades and Khraz slumps considerably but does not collapse.
It is everyone turn again (note scartch has said that he is going to use a touch of repose this round).

I continue to hold while set to receive a charge.

Move away from burning trees.
-
I climb the tallest tree and leap over the fire. Watching un-angry brother at all times.
-
Always angry brother rages angrily for a moment, raising his sword is if to strike scratch, but the growling and shaking his head. He collapses.
Scratch moves quickly and touches always angry brother, further closing the grievous wounds.
The fire grows, endangering Grozik, Scratch, and Khraz.

"Blind brother! The trees around you are on fire! Get away! Fire burns!"
Tox will drag Grozik out of the fire area. If Tox can't get to him safely he extends his war spear and tries to harpoon him through his clothing only. If that doesn't work and it looks like the flames will get him the harpoon goes in a wrist.
-
Luckily, Grozik has heavy armor and it is easy to hook the armor. However, he is large and lots of dead weight and dragging him through the fire won't do well for him.

OOC: he collapsed when he "healed" AAB, not from injury correct? I can't recall.

Am I still on fire? If not, I'll help Tox drag Grozik away from the trees. If I'm still burning, I keep away from everyone.

You are correct.
-

You are not on fire, you go over and help pull Grozik out. Are either of you strength drained right now?
-

Yes, my strength is down to 11 right now.
-
The two of you can only barely move him, due to the weight of his armor. If you drag him that slowly through the fire, it will not go well for him.

"Brothers...get your asses over here and help us pull Grozik out!"
As I berate the pack, I attempt to use my "powers" to put out the flames. I've never tried it before and I don't know if it'll work, but I give it a try.
-
Tox is at full strength, though too wounded to risk the fire.
-
Simultaneously, two things happen.
Ozzle collapses.
The area is engulfed in a rain storm. A heavy downpour covering the area you are in and as far as you can see (which in the dark and rain and forest isn't too far). The fire is put out within rounds.
Now Ozzle and Groziik are breathing but unresponsive on the ground, drenched. The rain does not shortly stop.
-
I should also note that Khraz is incoherent and barely moving...Drax and Razk are nowhere to be seen.
Tox, Scratch, Tarkin...
-
Scratch growls viciously then uses his 0-Level spells to heal Khraz. He will also try to bind his wounds as best he can. Then he yells to those still standing "We need some shelter. Tox, Tarkin, find what you can to help keep us dry. AND NO MORE BLOOD MAGIC!!"
-
I should also note that Khraz is incoherent and barely moving...Drax and Razk are nowhere to be seen.
Tox, Scratch, Tarkin...
As the harpoon idea didn't work and Tox can't walk through the fire he starts searching for the two missing brothers. He walks around poking the ground with the blunt end of his spear.

Did you miss the post about the rain storm?

gurgle...gasp...

Only the part about it putting out the fire. I carry the unconscious brothers under the tree cover. I poke the trees to make sure they're not fey trees.
-
Tarkin is standing on the other side of the flames as they get snuffed out. He's warning a oiled cloak and looks fairly dry. What's wrong with the rain blind brother, we won't melt. And honestly, some of the brothers are so easy to track we should bath them. Then rub some poop to cover their scent.
Taken rounds up the animals, and scouts 345 yards out from our camp, stopping and listening to the Forrest to see if we are in danger. He uses the animals to help
-
You find a nearby tree that is not a fey tree and did not catch on fire to provide cover from the rain.
You drag the brothers to it. Drax lets you know that he is near, but still invisible. Razk makes an appearance and helps to scout around.
-
You discover the area around the camp is quiet and empty. The rainstorm continues for minutes, drenching the already damp ground. (if you recall, it had been raining often during the last week of your trip). Puddles form and you find a higher ground tree to camp under not far from your current one.
Do you plan to camp here, nearby, or move a distance. Ozzle, Grozik, and Khraz are not able to decide right now, so it is up to the rest.

It would be preferable to move to somewhere Dry. But I doubt we can move some of the brothers.

Tox say: Dead troll smell terrible. Keep pests away. Brothers not move too far.
-
You do your best to make a camp in the dry area around a high tree. After a few minutes, the heavy rain stops and you are able to better make camp.
-
Unless anyone objects, I will assume you set up camp and take watches for the rest of the night.

Sounds good. I keep the animals
-
Scratch will not leave until everyone is healed/recovered from their blood-magic usage. If anyone complains he flat out tells them that the pack is more important than the prey.

You're going to be waiting for quite some time. Ozzle is in real bad shape. He's going to need approximately *** days to fully recover.
DM: They don't know how long it will take.
-
We should figure out the watch schedule for those of us who are not currently comatose. Scratch needs a straight 8 hours of rest, so he will take either the 1st or the last watch.
-
Drax needs 8 too, but Razk doesn't.
-
"This dumberer than a hebablam. How brothers expected to catch traitor sparkly face with whole forest trying to stop brothers? Need to find traitor and then go where traitor is going. Wake Tox when it Tox turn to watch."
Tox takes the cauldron out from under his kilt and uses it as a pillow.
-
Drax appears out of nowhere, slings a hammock wearily between 2 trees, and promptly passes out without saying a word.
-
So that appears to be Scratch first, followed by Tarking, Tox, Razk, then Drax?
-
Scratch will put everyone under his care while he is on watch
-

I need someone to pick two number from 1 to 10.
-
3 and 8
-
Although the night gets cold, and the dampness around you the the stink of burnt troll make it a terrible experience, you manage to get fitful rest. Because of the bad conditions, everyone only get 1 hp per level back despite the care.
If anyone got a level, you can advance...please message me if you did and let me know which class you took.
Those of you that are drained get the typical 1 per score back. Ozzle and Grozik do not gain consciousness.
-
Scratch will ask those that are awake if using their blood magic has made anyone feel weaker. If so he hits them with a Ray of Resurgence. If no one is weak, then he will ask if anyone is still fatigued or exhausted even after sleeping. If so he will hit them with a Ray of Resurgence
-
Ozzle is clearly weaker, and when you try it on him, or anyone else who is weaker, it has no effect in removing their weakness.
-
For those of you now with a night's rest, what is the plan. Do you drag Ozzle and Grozik along? Do you remain in the 'camp' and let them recover further?
-
Fey will attack again. We need to find a place easier to defend where we can camp for a few days until at least one of our 2 unconscious brothers recovers.
-
Any thoughts on how to find such a place?
-

Tox shakes his head. "If sparkly face gets two day lead no chance for brothers to catch sparkly face. Make litters for knocked out brothers and keep following. Brothers weak from blood magic not wounded."
