[New Stuff]
[Arawn's IBT continued...]
[Decalis 20th, 1635TH] - [Dark Lands]
Arawn asks the Elves if the could make or obtain high
quality clothing that fits his Alfar status. The Elves
are too eager and will set 3 elf females to doing it.
IN a few days he has high quality tunic, pants, belt, cowl,
cloak, undergarments and ornate footwear. Being an empath who
can speak to animals.
During the day Arawn works on his Druidic and Priestly
duties. In the evening he studies his meapthysics and
healer books.
Nice thing about the Sacred Forest this land is inherently
magic friendly. Several good places of purified land and
places of magic casting.
[Decalis 21st, 1635TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 10:27 am]
The Forestal asks Arawn to come and see to 6 Faerry who
are leaving the sacred forest to travel west. Arawn does
some prayers and ensures they will be safe as long as they
think safe.
[Time: 7:12 pm]
The Green Lady also known as Strie'bog's mother ask for
Arawn to visit her forest home outside the sacred forest.
So Arawn and Corsaya exit the safe sacred forest and enter
the dark forest. IT is dusk but the canopy of trees makes
it darker.
Suddenly from the darkness above leaps two forms. Arawn
has seen these things before. Gartula and they both look
male. From above he hears another speaking foul Kotothi
words trying to cast magic. But it seems Arawn's defenses
help. Arawn could simply avoid and go past. But it would
endanger other Vassa villages. He reaches for his shield and
sword ready for combat. He had no real training in the
bastard sword so borrowed a elven sword until he can make
one.
As both males leap at Arawn, Corsaya moves forward and
to the left forcing both creatures to miss. Arawn tries
to hit one but misses as it rolls away.
Both males leap and charge. One swipes at Arawn but is
blocked by his shield. Above he hears the foul Kotothi words
yet again but seems unharmed. He slices his sword sideways
and beheads the first male killing him with 31 poistos to his
head.
The other male tries to reach for Arawn to take him off
the horse but Arawn bashes him away with his sword.
The male leader from the trees leaps down to help his
fellows. Both charge and claw at Corsaya but she either
dodges or bucks them away.
The male leader charges and pushes Arawn off the Fay Horse.
The leader bites Arawn on his shoulder to inject the poison
but it seems Arawn's resistance is high enough there is no
effect.
Arawn considers doing a repel evil spell to make these foul
creatures flee. But there is great harm to doing this. They
might flee and harm other villagers. So there is a huge
risk to doing in this darkness. So he swipes his borrowed
sword to hit the creature. But he misses this time.
The other creature charges Corsaya but she gets away. The
male leader bites down onto Arawn's arm and tries to inject
the paralytic poison again. It goes in but it seem to have
no effect on Arawn.
Arawn does hit this time with his sword but the tough hide
of the creature is too tough. Corsaya charges the male leader
and rears up to kick at its back doing enough damage to
knock the creature off Arawn.
The other creature charges Arawn but Arawn rolls and
is not touched.
Arawn stands and thrusts at the male leader doing 11
points to his back. Corsaya rears up and kicks the other
male creature doing 10 points knocking it to the ground.
The leader stands and draws a stone half spear and charges
Arawn. He stabs Arawn but Arawn's armor protects him.
The other creature tries to lunge at the fay horse's legs
but can't reach them.
Arawn stabs the leader in the chest doing 17 more points
of damage to him. Corsaya continues to kick and trample the
other creature doing another 5 points.
The leader swipes again at Arawn's chest but his armor
protects him from damage. The other Gartula crawls away
from the fay horse in fear.
Arawn fails to hit the leader. Corsaya chased the
other creature doing another 2 points of damage.
Weak the leader tries to cast another spell but it seems
to fail as well as his half-spear attack hitting Arawn.
The other creature with a sudden surge of strength stands and
charges Corsaya. It leaps right at her but she turns around and
kicks backwards at the leaping creature. But fails to make
contact with each other.
Arawn stabs the leader but his tough hide protects him.
The leader swipes at Arawn but hits his shield. Corsaya
does another 5 points to the other creature.
The other creature gets lucky and jumps on to the back of
Corsaya. This makes her highly upset and she begins to buck.
The creature bites down onto her neck and she falls to the
ground paralyzed.
Arawn hits the leader once more doing massive damage killing
him. The other creature leaps off Corsaya and charges Arawn
but Arawn draws up his arm and deflects the creature.
Arawn stabs the creature taking him down. Then he stabs
it again to ensure it is dead. He rushes to Corsaya. Before
she can suffocate not able to breath, Arawn casts a Negate
Poison and cures the fay horse. He helps lift her to her
feet. Arawn cast a healing hand to heal himself and
then moves onto his journey.
At the Green Lady's home she watches as Arawn cleans
his tunic from the blood. Arawn realizes he never got
her actual name. Everyone just calls her the green lady.
It is some complex 12 letter word for her name. She
is happy to see him. She says there have been more Humagi
raids and Strie'bog is off making sure villages are well
protected. They sit down to a meal and chat for hours.
[Decalis 22nd, 1635TH] - [Sacred Forest]
Arawn spends the day at the very small Sacred Forest market.
Not much comes in due to it being a niche place tucked away
from normal areas. But Arawn lucks up and finds 6 seeds for
Moonwort and pays 1 gold for them.
After a day of Druid and Priest duties he reads his two
books on healing and metaphysics.
[Decalis 29th - Janaq 7th 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
Over these ten days Arawn continues his druidic and priestly
duties when he can. Then at night he continues reading his
metaphysics and healer book. But most of the time he spends
work on starting to craft a elven battle helmet which will
take 16 days.
During these days he casts these batch of spells. Ball Powers
fire three times, ball powers - other twice, battle cry, bless
twice, create warriors 4 times with 1 failure, dispel balance 3
times on battle mind with 1 failure, Elf Shot 7 times with
1 failure, Energy 5 times, hand of hecate 3 times, healing
hand 4 times, Insight 3 times, multiple arrow 4 times, negate
magic twice, negate potion 4 times with 2 failures, presence
twice, purification twice, repel evil 6 times with 2 failures,
All sensory powers twice with at least 1 failure in 1 spell,
Sleep mist 4 times with 1 failure, All sound powers 11 times
with 2 failures, sound failures all twice with 1 bad failure
and tracking 8 times with 3 of
them failures.
Arawn also casts wisdom to learn more enchanting magic and
Knowledge to learn Elder Water.
Two of the spells were abysmal failures. One of them was
a sound power spell but lucky there are no effects. The
other was Elf Shot. Two days after failing that Arawn becomes
very gullible. He starts to believe everything told to him.
When one child says the sky is green Arawn actually believes
it. When a shoe maker says that the Forestal is stealing
his nails he believes it. The Forestal notices this curse
on Arawn and instead of him gullible for 16 days the
Forestal arranges for the curse to be removed. But it takes
2 days to find a person powerful enough to end it. Till then
Arawn believes things but deep down knows he is cursed.
[Janaq 2nd 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 7:48 am]
Arawn is exploring some section of the sacred forest. He
doesn't know if this place even has boundaries. He notices
a lone brown eagle limping. Arawn helps the eagle and
heals it.
[Time: 9:54 pm]
Arawn needs to escort a herbalist lady from one village
to another. Since it is well dark they both walk in the
forest. Corsaya left in Sacred Forest since she would not
allow the lady to ride. So it is better to just walk
in the darkness. Suddenly Arawn stops the lady and
tells her stay. Arawn hears noises ahead and creeps
further up the path. He then notices 3 beings. One
young human male and 2 faerry. Arawn smiles and figures
the fae are just playing a prank. He steps through the
bushes and one of the females turns around. With the
lantern the lady is carrying and Arawn's night vision
Arawn stops when he sees blood on the female's lips.
This is no prank. Arawn recognizes these Faerry as
Baobhan Sith. Arawn reaches for his dagger but his
knowledge tells him to use iron. So he draws his
borrowed bastard sword and charges.
Arawn swings on the first one but misses. He yells
for the lady to come to be protected. The second
Sith takes to the air as Arawn suspected. It would be
wise to get the lady under his protection.
Arawn could cast repel evil but with a village this close
it would risk some lone villager being farmed if he
did not stop them here and now.
The one on the ground leaps at Arawn and claws ripping
at his right ribs doing 5 points of damage. The other
one dives at Arawn but he whips his shield and deflects
the beast away.
The lady emerges into the area and gasps. She can't
see as well in the darkness but raises the lantern to
see the Fae fighting Arawn.
First Sith leaps at Arawn sensing he is a nice catch
but the Alfar dodges. The flying one dives at Arawn
and claws at Arawn's neck doing a massive 4 points
tearing a chunk of neck/shoulder away.
Arawn hits the one on the ground in the back and wounds
her but also at the same time banishes her.
The second flying Sith sees this and turns to fly and
flee. Arawn drops his sword and shield and pulls his
bow and quiver. He knocks his arrow and tries to track
the fleeing Sith 30 feet away. It weaves and dodges
in and out of trees. But Arawn aims and fires. The
arrow hits the Sith in the back doing 17 points but not
only killing her banishes her.
Arawn kneels to check the man and finds he is not
fully drained so heals him and walks both to the
village before returning to the sacred forest.
[Janaq 4th 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 2:30 pm]
As Arawn is taking a break from working at the forge
he notices a black hawk with red beak attacking and
taking a snake up for lunch. Even in the Sacred Forest
the cycle of life seems to be in tact.
[Time: 5:10 am]
Arawn is awoken to bells in the forest. This is very
rare as alerts are not common in this place. Arawn
grabs his gear and hears the Faerry from the Faerry Hill
say a sentry has spotted outside villagers trying to take
down a Kotothi Shaman and a Gwyligi. Arawn knows the
beast very well as Mae summoned one and almost killed Pyan
for it.
Arawn stops at the blacksmith and grabs a weapon that
can hurt the beast and then leaves the sacred forest.
By time the Fae guides him to the villagers he spots
5 warriors on the ground paralyzed. Another 2 are
standing around confused. But the Kotothi shaman seems
to have been killed. At least that is good. There
are 3 other warriors trying to fight the beast.
Arawn charges to help the warriors and warns them not
to stare at the beast and to avoid its cry. Arawn swings
at the beast but fails to hit. The dog of darkness tries
to attack warrior #4 but fails to hit.
Two of the warriors hit the beast doing minor damage while
another doesn't penetrate his tough hide. The hound
bites warrior #1 in the leg making him collapse.
Arawn hits the beast and does 4 points of damage.
This causes the hound to turn on Arawn and attack it
bites him in his left arm doing 12 points forcing him to
drop his shield.
Warrior #3 stabs the beast in the neck doing 10 points
of damage. Another hits but doesn't penetrate his hide.
Arawn turns to Warrior #2, leaps but the warrior ducks
in time so be missed. Arawn does another 3 points of damage
stabbing him in the leg. Arawn starts to allocate magic
to cast some spells like armor.
Two faerry from the sky fire bows at the beast and hit
but they deflect off. Three elves from the Sacred Forest
join in but also fail to do damage.
The hound attacks warrior #4 and kills him.
Arawn stabs the beast and does the final damage to kill
it. Arawn and others tend to the wounded and paralyzed.
[Janaq 9th 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 11:23 am]
Arawn is taking a break from a priest ceremony when
he is walking in the heavy woods in the sacred forest.
As he steps across a fallen tree he becomes dizzy and
awkward. The area around him spins and he finds himself
now in a enclosed space. It is a large stone room
with 30 foot ceilings. A window to the left seems to show
a stormy night. Night?
Arawn looks around and behind him is startled to see a 20
foot man pulling a book out of a tall book case. He turns
and nods. "To free the lost one must seek the origin and
plea for help."
A clap of thunder forces Arawn to turn and when he does
he becomes dizzy again and steps over the log back in
the sacred forest. Did Arawn just dream it? But there
was something familiar about the giant. He sits on the
log to recall the scene. A storm giant? No. It
almost seemed like a Aankim based on the sigils on the
wall and the shield crest by the window. But how could that
even be possible?
Arawn couldn't help but ponder the message. Who was the 'lost'
the Anakim was referring to - Himself?... The abnari? If so then
that meant that there were some in the Upper Realms who were
aware of the events surrounding the party's last adventure and
seemed to wish them well. And who or what was the 'origin'? His
father perhaps as the one came up with the plan? Or was this
something altogether unrelated to the prison-world?
He felt he probably shouldn't share the information regarding
the shifters and their prison with the Forestal or Bohusara, not
for a lack of trust but for putting them in a position where
they might risk the wrath of the deities they served. But he
was willing to at least risk sharing this vision with them on
the off chance they might have some insight to share. And if
not then he hoped his training as a Baru would allow him further
insight into things.
[Janaq 10th 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 3:51 am]
After finishing the days crafting and druid chore
Arawn was asked by Strie'bog to help him. It takes a few
hours to ride to the village in the east and they stay
that night to help the village deal with a plant blight
harming the small gardens and forest. With help from
the Green Lady's knowledge Strie'bog is able to figure
it out to be a insect and helps to show how to deal with
the insects by using a common plant that acts like pepper.
Shouts wake up Arawn and he exits to find the Kalu
Bard Strie'bog heading to the west edge of the village.
There a forest giant is attacking. The Bard begins to
pepper magical multiple arrows, 5 at a time, at the
giant. Three arrows do minor damage as villagers flee
and cower. The village hunters and warriors try to
help but they have light bows.
Arawn and Strie'bog cause the giant to chase them
around the village distracting it from the locals.
As they do they pepper it with arrows. Arawn fires
but misses. Two of the 5 Strie'bog's arrows hit but
bounces off.
Arawn hits the giant in the leg and dives to save a
old lady under a wagon being crushed. The distractions is
so numerous he can't get a spell off yet.
The giant picks up the wagon and tosses it to the
nearest tree smashing it. He reaches for Arawn
but a large sonic boom from Strie'bog hits the giant
and he cowers back.
Arawn rolls and kneels and fires a arrow right at
the giant's stomach but actually hits his groin doing
18 points of damage. The giant howls in pain.
Strie'bog fires 5 more arrows hitting with 2 but doing minor
damage. The giant roars and charges to Strie'bog not knowing
where the boom came, arrow that impaled his gianthood came from.
The giant slams a foot down onto Strie'bog and does 8 points to
the bard.
The other warriors have bee peppering with arrows as well
while doing minor hits here and there they turn to fire
from torches for their arrows. A group of 8 fire at the
back of the giant. Six of the 8 hit But only one arrow
penetrates the tough armor. One other hunter gets lucky
and does 8 points to the giant's back ribs.
Strie'bog tries to crawl away but is dazed.
Arawn fires a arrow but it bounces off.
Four more villages hit with arrows doing damage past
his tough skin doing 7 points.
The giant tries to bash Arawn with his club but Arawn
rolls away.
Strie'bog fires 5 more arrows and 2 hit. One does
8 points to his chest. But the other flies at the neck
of the giant doing 15 points as it pierces deep.
The giant wavers back and grabs his neck in pain.
The villages fire but all in their haste fail to hit.
Arawn fires again and fails to hit with bow and his
attack spell.
Strie'bog fires 5 more arrows but only one hits doing
5 more points. The giant falls to his knees grabbing
for his throat. Villages tell the folks in the hut next
to it to flee now or be crushed.
As the giant teeters to the right about to crush the
hut Arawn charges leaping on the right knee for
help and does a forceful kick to the giant's chest.
This causes the teetering to shift from right to left
saving the hut.
Strie'bog fires 5 more with 3 hits. One arrow hits the
giant's right eye destroying it and the arrow penetrates
to the brain. The giant falls to the front and side dead.
The village is taken care of and any healing is done if
needed. The village now has problem of getting rid of the
body until Arawn offers to translocate it to the lake so it
can sink and decay. While a giant is bad for he lake in
the short term the by products will feed many animals and
the lake will thrive with this huge mass. Arawn considers
teleporting it to the Humangi but it could kill some random
person. The lake is the best and under the water.
[Janaq 16th, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 5:54 am]
Arawn wakes up early and can't sleep. After that strange
Larshee encounter he heads to the nearby lake he send the
forest giant to rest. Long time ago he saw the white dove
which is a symbol of his parents. Maybe he can see something
again?
But as Arawn sits around the lake watching the night around
him he spots a black leopard drinking nearby. Arawn studies the
animal and it just glances up briefly. Then it scampers back
into the forest.
[Janaq 18th, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 11:52 pm]
Arawn is leaving the Green Lady's place after dropping off
some materials heading to the sacred forest. Arawn notices
a brown bear in the forest nearby. But it seems a docile
beast and Arawn moves on.
[Janaq 27th, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 11:33 pm]
After helping a village rebuild after a storm Arawn is
heading back to the Sacred Forest. He is walking since
Corsaya wanted to say behind. As he is walking Arawn's
neck hairs curl a bit. He begins to sense something
but unsure what. As he draws his sword and buckler he
sees 3 bugbears charging his way
There is no time to use his bow so he prepares for melee.
He starts to cast a sleep mist spell but it seems to fail.
Arawn thrusts at the first but misses. They all attack and
swing their clubs. Two of the creatures fail to hit Arawn
but one hits him in the left shoulder dong 4 points of damage.
Arawn attempts the sleep spell again but it also seems to fail.
Arawn tries to stab one beast but it dodges. Two of the beasts
hit Arawn's shield but the 3rd hits him in the left center chest
but his armor protects him.
Arawn for a third try casts the sleep mist and it begins to
finally fall around him. The bugbears are all affected and
drop to the ground. Arawn considers his options. He could
teleport them away to live. But they might come back into the
forest and kill some innocent villager. Arawn looks around
the forest to see if any goblins are around but finds none
of them around. So the beasts are alone it seems.
Arawn kneels and does a prayer regardless. Life is precious
but he can't risk innocents dying from these creatures. He
stabs and kills all 3 creatures.
[Febris 6th, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 9:25 pm]
Arawn and Strie'bog are taking a 2 day village tour of the
north to ensure the winter is not affecting the villages badly.
Arawn is at the town central bonfire as most of the village is
well asleep when he hears crying. Arawn rushes to find a girl
around 10 or so pointing. Her cat is being swarmed by bats.
These brown bats are diving and trying to latch on as the cat
tries to claw and defense itself. But 4 are already attached
and drinking blood. Arawn sees these brown bats as vampire bats
usually attacking large animals.
Arawn tells the girl to stand back and considers his options.
if he casts repel evil the bats would just find another victim.
So he needs to deal with it. He draws his sword and shield and
rushes.
Arawn hits one bat killing it as he bashes another flying
around knocking it aside.
The other 2 bats dive at Arawn but miss as Arawn dodges
and ducks. Arawn slices another bat in half killing him.
One bat impacts on Arawn's shield. The dazed bat recovers
and latches onto his back and pierces his back to drain
blood. Arawn kills the one left flying. Arawn kneels at
the cat. He knows that these bats are hard to remove unless
they are burnt off. But burning might kill the cat which is
already laying motionless on the ground.
As the bat on his back drains blood, Arawn caats a sleep
mist. The mist falls and all the bats and hopefully cat
fall asleep. Arawn yells for the girl to carefully bring
a burning piece of wood from the fire but only carefully.
The girl comes back and Arawn begins the careful pinpoint
work to burning the bats off while trying not to harm the
cat. But the cat does get some hairs burnt regardless.
Arawn removes the bats and kills them. Then checks the
cat. He frowns it is too late. The small cat just lost
too much blood. There is no hope of using magic to regenerate
or heal the poor cat. Arawn with sleeping bat on his back
look at the girl who begins to cry. Arawn consoles the girl
but it is better the cat and not her that is dead. If this
was a horse or cow might've had a chance.
The girl's mother takes the cat and girl away as a villager
helps to burn the last bat off to kill it. Arawn blesses the
girl and the cat before they return home.
[Febris 8th, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 5:17 am]
Arawn is up and packing for his trip back to he Sacred Forest
from his tour of the north villages. Strie'bog will depart
separately. The village is quiet except two village sentries
on patrol.
Arawn notices a large mana source in the forest and has seen
these before. A possible natural magical plant or such. Arawn
heads to investigate. But as Arawn rounds the thick set of
trees he loses sight of the mana aura. Arawn looks around
but the forest is quiet. That's when he realizes too quiet
even the animals are silent. Arawn draws his sword.
As Arawn reaches for his shield a flash from the side. A
flash of fire streams right for him and hits him. Arawn is
burnt for 9 points of damage from the fire dart. Arawn falls
and rolls away grabbing his shield.
A bit disoriented as he rolls to put out the fire. He
misses the being running right for him. A human woman with
scales on her skin and a large crocodile like maw of a mouth.
She raises two hands with large long claws.
Arawn instinctively casts Armor as he stands. The
magical armor kicks in as Arawn lifts his sword to
deflect the woman. But it is unwieldy and misses.
The Cuca Queen claws at Arawn but hits his shield. Arawn
swings but misses the agile queen. The queen claws but
is blocked again by shield. Arawn not only misses the queen
but is almost pulled away by the queen and taken off balance
but he is lucky and remains standing.
The Queen misses entirely. Arawn hits the queen in the
lower left doing 4 points with his sword. Both Queen and
Arawn swipe but both miss each other. The queen misses again.
But Arawn does not as he slices open her left shoulder doing
15 points of damage. Queen hits the shield while Arawn misses.
The queen hits Arawn's shield again. Arawn stabs the Queen
at the upper left chest doing the final damage to kill the
Queen.
Arawn still hurt from the fire dart runs around to ensure
no other Cuca or Dae'ta are around. But finds nothing in the
area. Arawn heads to the village to alert the sentries to
get rid of it before the village wakes up. Then heals
himself.
[Febris 15th, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 4:12 am]
Camped out in the Vassa forest with others Arawn wakes to
see a large adult male deer watch the camp before moving on.
He hopes the villagers don't spot it and try to hunt it down.
But the deer is lucky and escapes.
[Time: 11:37 am]
Arawn is on a tour with the Green Lady, Strie'bog and
2 other villagers on the edge of the eastern Vassa forest.
Just beyond the tree line which is nearby Arawn notices
a creature he seems to recall en route to Ticasi on the
plains. The green lady comments that it is a Elefan and
seems to be moving south. Arawn is intrigued but they have
a tour to complete.
[Febris 16th, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 6:17 am]
Arawn is packing up his gear for the day's tour to
nearby villages when he spots another adult male deer
near the camp. This one doesn't appear to be the same
from the night before. The game in this area must be
plentiful.
[Febris 20th, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 5:10 am]
Arawn is in a village on his Vassa tour when suddenly
a dozen antelope scamper across the village. In fact there
are 16 all running south. Arawn figures they must be
migrating. Two of the hunters in village take one down
before it can get away. Arawn feels sad but the animal
will feed the village for awhile.
[Febris 22nd, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
Arawn intends to study and improve his natural eloquence.
This will take a full month. Since he has been doing his druid
and priestly duties he has been speaking out eloquently in
ceremonies and rituals so this is nothing but a routine to him
now. But it will improve his natural ability.
Chanting prayers Arawn helps to plant with permission from
the Forestal a red maple tree. A rare tree he found 2
weeks ago that he took for a sapling. He does this with
a Ceremony spell to honor the sacred forest itself and as
a tribute to it.
[Time: 3:41 am]
Arawn wakes up to stoke the fire in his hut and notices
a large adult deer outside his hut. This is the first time
he has seen a deer in the sacred forest so figures it was
allowed in recently.
[Febris 24th-28th, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
Arawn continues his Druidic and Priestly duties and reads
his books at night. He continues to improve his eloquence as
well as normal duties.
[Marqi 2nd, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 9:50 am]
m
Arawn is exploring the Sacred Forest when he encounters
aa wood nymph. The mymph acknowledges Arawn and gives
appreciation for his work. Then it fades into the forest.
[Marqi 7th, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
Arawn spends his normal day in the sacred forest and reading
his books at night.
Inspired by the Vong pills, Arawn wants to make healing
pills for the party. But it is a expensive project in mana.
It is impossible to make healing hand and energy pills so
he tries to make as many as he can. By the end of the day
he only is able to make 7 healing hand pills and no energy
pills for the party.
[Time: 11:12 am]
Arawn is riding in the forest near the sacred forest heading
to deliver a rare gem for the green lady. When Corsaya suddenly
gets nervous and alerts Arawn. Arawn draws his sword and buckler
and then notices it behind to the left 50 feet in the forest.
This beast stands 5 feet tall and over 600 pounds looking like
a lion. It has fire red strands in his mane. It roars and
it is too late for Arawn.
The Fire Lion is lucky and gets off a flaming death spell
on Arawn who bursts into flame and his clothing rage in fire.
But being the person not to harm Corsaya he falls to the ground
to douse the flames before she can catch fire.
The Fire lion then charges making the 50 foot gap in no
time. But Corsaya turns and tries to defend Arawn. The
horse tries to trample but the agile lion moves away.
The Fire lion claws at Corsaya ripping flesh away doing 5
points of damage.
Arawn grits his teeth but casts a negate magic spell and ends
the flaming spell but not before it does another 5 pionts
of damage to him. He continues to roll to douse out the flames
before he can act.
The Lion turns to figure out who should he kill first the
Fay horse or the Sidh he loves to eat. The horse is a bit
too active. He leaps for the horse. The lion tries to bite
the neck of the horse but only swipes down her side dong
6 more points of damage. But Corsaya knows one more strike
and she is dead. She rears up and kicks at the fire lion
doing 8 points of damage.
Arawn stands in massive pain as his skin peels grabs his
buckler and charges to help Corsaya. Arawn stabs the large
beast doing 3 points past his tough hide. The Lion turns
to face Arawn and roars. It swipes at Arawn but he deflects
the claw with his buckler.
Corsaya hurt decides to steer clear as she is bleeding
out she is starting to get weak.
Arawn swipes at the beast but fails to hit. But the
large beast charges and leaps at Arawn. With a 600 pound
thing hitting you both fall to the ground. Then the beast
claws at Arawn's stomach doing massive damage. The last
thing Arawn sees is the Fire lion leaning down eye to eye
and about to do the killing bite before he is knocked out.
Arawn feels serene peace as he begins to float. Memories
of his childhood with his parents come flooding back. Maybe
this is how he dies. But to see Corsaya die as well because
of him.
Then Arawn is jerked away gasping for air. He turns his
head to see the fire Lion stare at him. He grabs his sword
but his flesh is so damaged it is painful. This evil beast
is toying with him!
Then a shadow falls over him and he can't make it out. "Hurry
over here!" Wait. That's the forestal's voice. What is he
doing outside the sacred grove? He rarely leaves.
Over the eons or maybe it was just minutes Arawn wakes
and fades. He vaguely recalls the forestal saying the
lion is dead thanks to the druids. He seems to recall
a half dozen elves and druids around him. At least 3
seem to be treating him. Then the green lady appears
and leans down and seems to say words then he fades.
He learns the green lady healed and regenerated Arawn.
Arawn is helped to stay glad to be alive. "The forest
alerted me and we sent help. The forest doesn't always
let us know but this beast is not welcome here. We
are sorry we were late." The forestal says. Arawn
looks around for Corsaya and finds massive blood. "She
is fine. She fought even us helping her. She is such
a nice noble beast. But Strie'bog's mother healed and
was helped by the druids. Both of you will need rest
but should be fine. Aside from your riding clothes."
Arawn looks down to see him in a robe and figures his
clothes were all destroyed. He is helped back to his
place in the sacred forest.
[Marqi 8th, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
The druids demand that Arawn rest the day and do nothing
for his duties. This gives Arawn time to study his books as
he recovers from the lion attack.
[Marqi 9th, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 3:56 am]
Staying at Strie'bog's place Arawn is awoken to se a mass
of antelope migrating south. Both the bard and druid estimate
there must be 75-80 of them moving fast.
[Marqi 16th-233rd, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
Arawn continues his Druid and Priestly routines. Reading
his books at night.
Marqi 20th Arawn lucks up and finds Chervil and buy sit
for 15 silver. The next day Arawn lucks up and finds a
Revification spell scroll for 5 silver.
During these final days Arawn casts: using creatures and
magical items in the sacred forest he tries all of his
dispel/banishes 6 times for a total of 36 castings with 112
failures with at least one abysmal failure. He casts Bless
twice, armor twice with 1 abysmal failure. Energy, ceremony
twice with 1 failure, communicate 3 times with 2 failures and
3 purification spells. He casts wisdom, sky knowledge with 1
failure and recasts it, Knowledge and Inner revelation to
gain info.
On Marqi 22nd, a huge ceremony is held by the priests, druids
green lady and Forestal as well as a audience of several hundreds.
In witness to Arawn being promoted in the Priesthood.
Finally on the morning of the last day he casts translocate
with Corsaya going back to check on the party.
[Marqi 16th, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 9:33 am]
[Marqi 17th, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 5:59 am]
Arawn is restless not seeing his friends in months. At the
lake he lets Corsaya rest and graze since the snow is finally
starting to fade. Arawn then notices the same or a different
leopard at the lake drinking. He wonders if this is some
omen for the future where leopards are part of it.
[Marqi 20th, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 10:12 am]
A elf bring in 2 riding horses of high quality for treatment
for hoof rot. The druids and Arawn help out.
[Marqi 21st, 1636TH] - [Sacred Forest]
[Time: 7:04 pm]
Arawn and other villagers encounter on a path 5 adult
human males killed. All are beyond hope. There are signs
of some animal but it is unclear what killed them. Arawn
helps handle the bodies to rest.
Actions? Comments?
Next Update....Soon..
GM: Originally this IBT was 2200 lines. After Arawn edited
he removed *51* days. Yes. He didn't want those days
posted. Not sure why. But that's half the IBT poof.
It ended up almost 1700 lines so about 500 lines of
good text and stuff was deleted. :< His choice to do
so but figured I'd let you know if it seems missing
some things. :) Hound combat might be a bit confusing
I run out of time to edit it. But the gist should be
there to read.
