Sodden Stories: Scene 3 - Prembret's Camp

[JellyBrains]

Victor uses acrobatics to escape the grab from the leech. 19
Step to H11
Victor attacks leech with Rapier 13

[Jinxs-3d]

Arkyat will step to G13. He will swing his warhammer at the leech attempting to escape. Before turning and attacking the other leech with his 2nd strike.

Step G13
Attack leech at H12 Discord strike: 11; Damage if a hit (seems unlikely): 14
Attach at leech H14; Discord strike: 2 (ugh).

[holydeg]

With a leech attached, Tover just can't get the leverage to battle with it properly.
Pixel roasts the leech attached to Victor as Victor brushes it off and moves to flank it. The leech falls dead to the ground.
Inva uses her mind to throw debris at the remaining leech, dealing some serious damage.
Arkyat moves closer, but trying to avoid hitting Tover causes him to miss the leech entirely

Meanwhile, the leech enjoys making a meal out of Tover (Grab to keep hold. Blood Drain for 7 damage. Blood Drain for 6 damage. By my calculation this causes Tover to go to Dying 1, so the Leech let's go )

Round 4

Pixel Inva Arkyat Victor Tover (Tover went unconscious, so his Initiative moves to before the Leech's turn. Leech (weak to salt)(Quickened: Extra Stride action each turn)

[Silverstone]

In case Tover not healed, recovery check roll 14, believe DC = 11

[admin]

Pixel will Stride to F15 and uses the Produce Flame cantrip against the last Leech:

Attack Result: 22
Attack Fire Damage: 8

Doing Inva as Rednetra is AFG (Away From Game)

Inva will Stride to F14.
Inva uses Telekinetic Projectile against the damaged Leech (or the last Leech)

OUT OF CHARACTER

Inva's Telekinetic Projectile Attack versus damaged Leech Attack = 23 Damage: 7

 

[Jinxs-3d]

Arkyat will be happy to swing again if needed.

Discord: 1st strike attempt: 12
2nd strike attempt: 10

Don't think there's a need to roll damage.

The remaining leech expires as it is pelted with fire an debris. Tover's body's defenses halt his decent towards death and now he is merely unconscious. Seeing that you have made the area safe once more, Prembret rushes towards his camp to check on his gear.

“My formulas are ruined. I'll have to start from scratch all over again,” he bemoans, “They even ate my plums of haste!”

Ecmund rushes to Tover, tending to his wounds, restoring 8 hp.

“We should get something cooking. Maybe after a short rest and some food, Tover will be feeling stronger”

[JellyBrains]

Victor looks for plants that will support a fire even if wet (flammable interior, oily, etc.) roll 8 swamp lore

OUT OF CHARACTER

Pixeil uses a Heal spell to try to heal everyone wounded. He then offers his services to light any fire needed! (all wounded allies: +4 HPs)

Between Victor and Pixel, you are able to get a very smokey fire going.

Victor 15HP Hero 2
But has irrational hatred of twenty sided dice

[Silverstone]

Tover says“anyone got any healing spell left?”

[admin]

“Sorry Tover, me not got more spells today. Maybe someone with Healing Kit can Medicine you?” Pixel says.
Inva shakes his head “Sorry, can't help there.”

Prembret and Ecmund prepare a meal of Sadza and Smoked Sausage - a mix of Dwarf and Grippli favorites - while you rest and heal from the battle.

As you sit around the fire, steam rising from your bowls, the fatigue of the morning’s battle slowly melts away. The rich, earthy aroma of the meal fills the air, mingling with the ever-present scent of damp jungle.

Ecmund, his usual flamboyance tempered by genuine fondness, recounts his first encounter with the Grippli of The Verdant Tide, the legendary city-barge currently docked in Hyrantam. He speaks of its sprawling decks covered in hanging gardens, the bioluminescent lanterns that sway with the current, and the bustling community of Grippli artisans, scholars, and traders who call the floating city home.

Prembret listens with wide, fascinated eyes, his hands gripping his bowl as if the story itself might slip through his fingers. “A whole city on the water? With Grippli running it?” he croaks in disbelief.

“Aye,” Ecmund nods, leaning in. “And not just any Grippli—some of the finest potion-brewers, mechanics, and navigators I’ve ever seen! You'd fit right in, friend. Imagine the stories we could gather from a place like that!”

The excitement in Prembret’s face is all the confirmation Ecmund needs. With a grin, he looks to you. “What do you say, friends? Our plans have changed! A detour to the Verdant Tide awaits—because some stories are too good to pass up!”

With your bellies full and your spirits lifted, you prepare to retrace your steps back toward the coast. Ecmund's initial quest seemingly forgotten, you set out, bruised and battered—new tales to tell, and perhaps, new adventures awaiting you on the floating city of the Grippli - if you choose to continue with Ecmund and Prebret!

This is the end of the adventure. I hope you all had fun with it over the last year; I know I did! Thank you for being a part of this and sticking with it for so long! This is the first PBP I've been a part of that lasted more than 3 or 4 days, so it's really gratifying that we were able to finish this.
