            GM: Ack. Yep.  Typical bounce.  But list back up now.  It happens.

            From Pyan: [Re: Actions]
                 Pyan  shouts out, "I think we 
need to hurry with the portal...."
            GM: Ack.

            From Bess: [Re: Websites]

                 [no note yet on website you had 
received this, so re-sending (forwarding)

                 Raddok attacks the #1 suit of 
armor, swinging his mace to try to strike its 
head/shoulder area, while keeping his shield 
protecting his left shoulder/side. Having had the 
last suit of armor fall from his blows, Raddok 
feels a bit more confident, but he tries to keep 
an eye on what else is happening, and hears the 
flames behind him, but concentrates on striking 
down his current opponent. If he succeeds, he 
will turn to help anyone close to him.
            GM: Ack.

            From Kiet: [Re: Actions]
                 OOC...From Book 1...”Eloquence - 
A Character’s mental dexterity. It can be viewed 
as his ability to think quickly. Problems that 
require a person to be convincing in 
interpersonal relations, think quickly or respond 
with mental rapidity require Eloquence.

                 Kiet sees how difficult his 
choice becomes with the flames, but 

            GM: Ack.

         [New Stuff]

         [Time: 1:24:16 pm – South-East of Ma'Dor]
         [Turn 2: Phase 1]

            Arawn studies the runes on the 
podium.  Some are glowing and some are solid 
colors.  The creature seems to imply a 
hibernation effect is possible.  He glances at 
the rune that has to be the portal.  It suddenly 
begins to glow ever so slightly a green hue.  He 
glances behind him at the portal.  Moments ago it 
was a solid white.  Now it seems to shimmer ever 
so slightly.  What does that mean? Glancing back 
he doesn't know Korchi writing which Velf implied 
some of these runes were.  Could the ancient 
dwarves have fled from present day Korchu 
lands?  To hide this book.  But Lymrian he has 
studied a bit.  Maybe at one point Korchu and 
Lymrians associated with each other? In the same 
great ocean?  But there is a rune that implies 
'at rest' but another may mean 'hole up' or 
'overwinter'.  Does hole up mean to close the 
cave including portal up fully magically?  But he 
saw no dwarf bodies....unless these suits were 
the ones who remained behind?  Now 2 runes before 
that rune shows a possible seasonal implication 
like the world moving through seasons.  Together 
with the other rune could that mean a dormant season?

            Pyan shouts out, "I think we need to 
hurry with the portal...." he continues in a 
normal voice, "Or we're going to end up in the future again."

            Arawn hears Pyan's voice and then 
makes the connection. The flicker could only mean its about to close!

            As Pyan yells he moves to help 
Barbosa and Z'leyra.  He charges Suit #10 and 
spears a vulnerable joint and hits for 3 points.

            Mournath leaves the flame and runs to 
help Dorhak against Suit #2.  He attacks but is blocked by the suit's shield.

            Kiet sees how difficult his choice 
becomes with the flames, but it seems to have 
helped.   But now there are still 'suits' active 
and hurting group members. Kiet hates the idea of 
possibly damaging such valuable armor, but they 
are animated and active against us!


            Kiet is going to run over suit #9, 
stepping on it and dodging any attempt it might 
make to attack, then head towards Mournath.  As 
he approaches Mournath, Kiet activates the Jump 
function in his boots to go over Mournath 's head 
to lite just beyond him.  He then heads towards 
Dorhak and his attacker, swinging wide and then 
swinging around toward the portal.  The intent is 
to approach suit #2 closely enough to attack it with tulwar.

            Obviously, do not block portal with fire.

            At least this was the plan.  Kiet 
side steps to make the fire path from the south 
wall so it'll be one full line of fire from wall 
to wall.  Then moves toward #9 but he is not 
moving.  The suit continues to burn.  Then he 
sees Mournath has moved to help Dorhak.  He moves 
north making a new line of fire to force the 
suits to walk through.  He moves toward Dorhak.

            Z'leyra swings her great sword and 
hits #10 decapitating the animated suit of 
armor/skeleton.  The head/helmet rolls away as the body slumps to the ground.

            Raddok attacks the #1 suit of armor, 
swinging his mace to try to strike its 
head/shoulder area, while keeping his shield 
protecting his left shoulder/side. Having had the 
last suit of armor fall from his blows, Raddok 
feels a bit more confident, but he tries to keep 
an eye on what else is happening, and hears the 
flames behind him, but concentrates on striking 
down his current opponent. If he succeeds, he 
will turn to help anyone close to him.

            Raddok swings and hits the #1 suits 
helmeted skull hard knocking the head and helmet 
off his head.  It rolls away to the ground.  But 
now the suit continues to stand which creeps 
Raddok out.  If he was a live dwarf he'd be dead for sure.

            Barbosa swings on #8 hits but his armor protects him.

            Dorhak swings on #2 but fails to hit.

            Suit #1 swings on Raddok but misses.

            Suit #2 swings on Dorhak but hits his shield.

            Suit #3 is able to stand behind Arawn 
but the Creature surges forward and head butts 
the suit throwing him about 5 feet away denting 
his armor as he impacts on the ground again.

            Suit #4 steps past the flames and 
continues to be on fire.  It takes a shaky step forward and collapses.

            Suit #5 does the same makes it 2 feet 
past the flames and falls to the ground burning more.

            Suit #7 swings at Barbosa who side 
steps and brings shield up just in time to block it.

            Suit #8 swings on Barbosa hitting him 
in the right middle ribs.  Doing 6 
points.  Barbosa yelps in pain and collapses.

                                 ------------------

         [Time: 1:24:19 pm – South-East of Ma'Dor]
         [Turn 2: Phase 2]

            Arawn studies the runes for possible 
traps or other methods.  If this place can cave 
in the entrance it could do the entire cave? Then 
he notices the portal rune blinking more 
steadily.  He glances behind him and sees the 
creature now only 2 feet away staring at 
him.  The suit near him now a bit further 
away.  He glances at the portal – sure enough its 
flickering faster.  Only a Alfar with keen sight 
might notice this.  How long do they have?

            Mournath swings on #2 but misses.

            Kiet moves toward #2 slipping past 
Dorhak and swinging his tulwar but only dings 
against his armor.  But he judges it so the fire 
only engulfs the suit not Dorhak.  But the waist 
high fire is actually closer to Dorhak's face – being short.

            Then Kiet runs toward the portal and 
ends up about 2 feet away form it.

            Suit #2 takes 15 points of damage 
from the fire.  But remains standing.

            Z'leyra sees Barbosa massively hit 
with blood gushing out in 4 areas and she figures 
he is likely dead.  But instead of helping she 
swings on #8 hitting his right shoulder severing 
his right arm off doing 23 points of damage.

            Raddok swings on #1 but fails to 
hit.  He sees Barbosa fall and wonders why the healer isn't helping?

            Suit #1 swings back at Raddok but fails to hit.

            Suit #2 seems alert or smart or just 
lucky.  It steps away from the fire right toward 
Mounrath but burning even more.  Taking 12 more 
points.  Mournath narrowly misses the suit of 
armor falling right on him as it hits the ground burning.

            Suit #3 stands amazingly again!  But 
the creature charges and butts the suit right 
into the fire taking 10 points and then pieces of 
armor shatter all over the ground from the fire damage.

            Suit #7 moves toward Z'leyra swings but misses.

            Suit #8 picks up his mace from the 
ground where his arm fell and swings to his left 
dropping his shield.  He swings on Z'leyra and 
hits her in right middle ribs doing 4 points of damage.

            Pyan moves toward #7 spears it with a 
middle rib hit doing 3 points.

            Dorhak moves to help the down Barbosa 
swinging mace at #1 but fails to hit.

            Then those who see the portal notice 
it flicker about 20% faster at least maybe 
more.  The perimeter begins to vibrate as well around the portal visually.

         Actions? Comments?

         Next Update: Saturday?

         GM: These weeks are really hectic. With 
doctor visits and visits to doctors for 2 days a 
week for next 2 months gives me less time plus 
other normal duties and errands.  So sorry if 1 
update per week.  Tried to do 2 last week but 
issues stopped that.  All can see portal flicker 
clearly now.  Will try next update Saturday I 
hope.  If staff helps and not slacks.  Only 3 suits really left.

         GM: Dorhak- If want to yell orders I'll 
consider that this last phase 
retroactively.  Course its odd the creature hasn't done much to you guys.
