[GM]: BEGIN SESSION
[GM]: Recap:
[GM]: A few seconds ago, Thomas noticed something odd in the western wall and walked over to investigate
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): are you sure about how fast Recover ST works in your game? Normally it recovers 1/5 min 1/2 min if you have it at 20
[GM]: Anval and Jackdaw have been gone just a couple of minutes, taking the Old Santum Ral .. and heading towards the Wall of Skulls
[GM]: Thomas discovered what appeared to be fingertips sticking out of the wall and arroused the curiosity of Sir C and Jamison
[GM]: Dirk still sits with his head bowed trying to recovered from his wounds.
[GM]: Lendyll has taken interest in the North Eastern wall and some remnants of an old painting there.
[GM]: The 3 that investigated soon saw more of the fingers appear and finally a whole hand.
[GM]: The hand was wearing a ring with a blood red stone.
[GM]: Very shortly, the 1st half of a forearm appeared and through the wall stepped a woman
[GM]: She was dressed in a red robe and had red hair .... and was quite good-looking
[GM]: After emerging from the wall ... she vanished.
[GM]: Thomas again saw something strage ... a few seconds later.
[GM]: A semi-transparent ring moving towards the East
[GM]: He has begun to cast Manipulate ... just before the woman disappeared .. and still had that spell fresh in his mind.
[GM]: As soon as the ring moved to exit the room, he cast the spell to snatch the ring.
[GM]: He then yelled, "I cant keep this up for long .... grab it!"
[GM]: Thomas was feeling resistance to his attempted
[GM]: 'snatch'
[GM]: Sir C and Jamison .. moved toward the ring .. after Thomas indicated the direction.
[GM]: But upon reaching the raised platform ... stopped.
[GM]: There ... to the left of the ring .. was a ball of fire ....
[GM]: A perfect sphere of flame
[GM]: As they looked on, the sphere grew larger and Sir C reached for his shield, which happened to be close enough to get.
[GM]: By the time that he had it readied, the shpere of flame once again increased in size
[GM]: A second later ... it flew towards them and they attempted to jump out of the way
[GM]: Sir C made his dodge roll .... Jamison didn't
[GM]: The ball of fire flew past them to it's intended target ... Thomas
[GM]: Thomas reflexidly cast Blink to get out of its way
[GM]: He (rolled
[GM]: )
[GM]: ...and ended up 2 hexes from his former spot
GM takes a breath
[GM]: OOC: Any questions?
[GM]: OOC: I was just about to roll damage.....
[Jamison]: ok
[GM]: The fireball hit the spot that Thomas was ... and exploded outward
[GM]: Thomas: I need a Will-3 roll to not break concentration from the Blink
DICE for Thomas: (3d6+3) : 3d6=4,2,3 = [ 12 ]
(Thomas whispered to GM): IQ is 14
(GM whispered to Thomas): Missed by one .. huh?
[ Sir Cornelius joined the game ]
(Thomas whispered to GM): No passed by 2
(Thomas whispered to GM): Already added in the modifyer
[Jamison]: OOC: hey SC
(Sir Cornelius whispered to GM): sorry it took so long
[Anval]: ooc Hiya!
[Sir Cornelius]: heya Jamison
[Sir Cornelius]: Anval...hello
[Sir Cornelius]: and JD
[Jackdaw]: Hi hi
[Sir Cornelius]: Thomas :)
[GM]: Sorry Thomas ... that was a Will-3 ... a penalty
[Thomas]: Hello
[Thomas]: [Correct...So I add it to my roll right?]
[GM]: You needed an 11 ... I believe
[Jackdaw]: ooc, he made a penalty roll
[Jamison]: By adding 3 to his roll, it is the same as subtracting 3 from his will....
[GM]: okay .. I see ... you got it
[Thomas]: [okay]
[GM]: As Thomas reappeared 2 hexes to the right, he mantains concentration on his Manipulate Spell
[Jackdaw]: except that it makes a crit fail more likely to do it that way, but the end resutl on a pass/fail is the same
[GM]: Damage
[GM]: Thomas is 2 hexes away from a 3 point explosive fire ball
[GM]: He takes 1d6 worth of damage
DICE for GM: (1d6) = [ 1 ]
[GM]: OOC: hehehe
[Sir Cornelius]: way to get lucky Thomas :)
[Jamison]: burn your little fingure Big T?
[GM]: I also believe that he needs to make another will roll not to lose concentration?
[Sir Cornelius]: LOL cruel cruel GM
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): does this make a noise we might hear?
[Jackdaw]: ooc but at nly -1 for the suffered damage
[GM]: I dont think Thomas let out a yell whatsoever .....
Thomas jumps back as he gets his bearing from his 'port...He puts his arm over eyes to protect his eyes from the flash...
[GM]: You also need to make a Body Sense Roll to act next turn, Thomas
Thomas quickly pats out his singed forearm...
DICE for Thomas: (3d6) : 3d6=6,4,1 = [ 11 ]
(Thomas whispered to GM): Made it
(Thomas whispered to GM): By 3
[Sir Cornelius]: what? his armor doesn't protect? :)
[GM]: OOC: That was his Body Sense roll
[GM]: Thomas' armor got singed .. but his arm is okay
[Sir Cornelius]: OOC: stick with me kid...I'll get ya through :)
[GM]: Jamison on the other hand ... wasn't as lucky
[Jackdaw]: ooc, the wall, the door before me...
[GM]: As the ball of fire flew past and he stumbled and didn't dodge ... his armor is engulfed in flames.
[GM]: Jamison is on fire
Thomas somehow keeps his wits about him as he mind swims with disorintation from the port...his tongue stick out a bit as he tries to maintain his telekinetic control on the ring...
[GM]: The ring still tugs against Thomas' attempts
[GM]: Jamison to put out the fire .... I think a DX -2 is in order (penalty)
DICE for Jamison: (3d6) : 3d6=4,3,6 = [ 13 ]
[GM]: OOC: I need everyones next action
[GM]: I take it that Jamison wants the fire out
DICE for Jamison: (3d6I think that might be prudent) : = [ 0 ]
[GM]: Thomas maintains concentration
[Jackdaw]: do we hear any commotion? If not Jackdaw will continue to rest and watch Anval
(Anval whispered to GM): Anne continues to cast her Final Rest spells, since she probably never heard the sounds of combat...
[GM]: Jackdaw only hears the wispers of the lost souls
[Anval]: Then Anne continues casting her Final Rest spells....
[GM]: Sir C ... what will you do next?
[Jackdaw]: getting founded I hope??
[Sir Cornelius]: where is Sir C?
[Sir Cornelius]: oh..we have a map
[GM]: OOC: let me set the map up
[GM]:
[GM]: Well, I think we are going to need the Cats map
[Sir Cornelius]: what is the X?
[GM]: The X is the semi-transparent ring
[GM]: Everthing should be accurate
[GM]: Thomas' position takes into consideration his 2 hex Blin
[GM]: Blink
[Sir Cornelius]: and the fireball...came from that direction...right?
[GM]: Yes
[GM]: Am I loosing anyone to lag?
[Anval]: nope
[Jackdaw]: nyet
[Sir Cornelius]: lag? lag? lag? Me I think...no?
[Jamison]: so far so good
[GM]: Jamison? .... cool
[Thomas]: All good
[GM]: So, I need Sir C's action
(Sir Cornelius whispered to GM): still getting situated...as much as I can...I want to both get the person put out...and get whatever the ring thing is
[GM]: Sir C just dodged a fireball and he notices that Jamison is on fire
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): where did we go?
Sir Cornelius looks to help Jamison out if he can smother the flames
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): way over there???
[GM]: Anval and Jackdaw are also in the correct location as per the map
[GM]: Yes
[GM]: That's where the Wall of Skulls was
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): been fixeding a lot of skulls hav
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): have we?
[GM]: What will you use to smother the flames, Sir C?
[Sir Cornelius]: heh I'm still looking for Anval andJD :)
[Sir Cornelius]: whatever is handy...some rubbish perhaps...something heavy...cloth?
[GM]: There is the remains of Sk4 and Sk5 near Jamison feet
[GM]: ....including the rags that they wore for armor
[Sir Cornelius]: good question...do I have my cloak on?
[GM]: Do you?
[GM]: You should have your tunic on .... for sure . . I would think
[Sir Cornelius]: whatever is handy
[GM]: You will need to drop your shield (0 sec) and take off your tunic (1 sec)
[Sir Cornelius]: brb
[Sir Cornelius]: ok...will do
[GM]: Unless he has fastdraw tunic?
[Jamison]: hehehe
[Jackdaw]: hey, if I wore one that might be a useful skill
[GM]: Dirk and Lendyll looked up when the fireball hit.
[Jamison]: at the right time, JD, at the right time....
[Sir Cornelius]: back...(had to put the kids down)
[GM]: They both seem confused ... not knowing where the fireball came from
[GM]: Dirk sits
[Anval]: ooc - Sir C...isn't that sort of uh... final...(joke)
[Jamison]: a little harsh, I believe...
[GM]: Lendyll is in the air
[Sir Cornelius]: well...after 10 years..... :)
DICE for GM: (3d6) : 3d6=1,4,3 = [ 8 ]
[GM]: Everyone now sees another fireball form in the air next to the ring.
[Sir Cornelius]: why do I not like that ring?
[GM]: OOC: I guess we need to run initiative
+=+ New Initiative Round +=+
+=+ Thomas (1d6+6) = 8 +=+
[GM]: Thomas?
[Thomas]: /he looks back to the other heroes, a sweat breaking across his brow.."Gonna let it go unless somebody can grab it..."
[GM]: Continues to concentrate? .. anything else?
[Thomas]: [Anybody close? How bout Lendyll?]
[Thomas]: [Yes for now...How big is the fireball]
[GM]: Hmmm... it's a 1 point fireball ... how big is that?
[Sir Cornelius]: bigger than a breadbox?
[Jackdaw]: ooc I believe a fireball is described as about the size of a volleyball
[Jackdaw]: in GURPS
[GM]: Sounds good
[Thomas]: [Hehehe...Okay, good enough...Just wnated to see how much time I had.]
[Sir Cornelius]: OOC: Sir Cornelius wants to know how has the magic volleyball net
[Jamison]:
(GM whispered to Anval): As you get to the end of the northern part of the wall .. you come to a room
(GM whispered to Jackdaw): As you get to the end of the northern part of the wall .. you come to a room
(Anval whispered to GM): Anne investigates with her light stone, to ensure she and JD will not be attacked while she sets the sould free...
(Anval whispered to GM): souls free that is
[Thomas]:
[Jackdaw]:
[GM]: OOC: I am getting some lag here
+=+ ~Red x (1d6+7) = 8 +=+
[GM]: The fireball grows in power slightly ... (hmm... wonder if it grows in size?)
+=+ Jamison (1d6+4) = 9 +=+
[GM]: Jamison is still on fire .... action?
[Jamison]: put it out....
[GM]: Roll DX-3
[Jamison]: did the penalty increase?
[GM]: No, that's what it should have been last time
DICE for Jamison: (3d6) : 3d6=6,4,5 = [ 15 ]
[GM]: Still burning
+=+ Sir C (1d6+7) = 10 +=+
[Jamison]: yep
[Sir Cornelius]: pulling...something off :)
[GM]: Sir C ... roll DX-3
[Sir Cornelius]: and then smothering :)
[Sir Cornelius]: ok
DICE for Sir Cornelius: (3d6) : 3d6=3,1,5 = [ 9 ]
[GM]: That should do it
[Sir Cornelius]: wow...let me see :)
[Sir Cornelius]: might at that :)
[GM]: Sir C successfully smothers the flame
+=+ Dirk (1d6+7) = 10 +=+
[GM]: Dirk starts to get up
[Jamison]: thanks SC
+=+ Lendyll (1d6+6) = 11 +=+
[Sir Cornelius]: as a matter of fact it does make it :)
[GM]: Lendyll flys to investigate .... cautiously
+=+ New Initiative Round +=+
+=+ Thomas (1d6+6) = 7 +=+
[GM]: The ring is growing less transparent
[GM]: Thomas?
(GM whispered to Anval): I know that this is not in time with the rest of the action ... but when Anval looks into the room ... she sees something glimmering
[GM]: Thomas ... your action?
(Anval whispered to GM): Is it a torch? Something metal and reflective? Has she finished with the wall of souls/skulls yet?
(GM whispered to Anval): Actually she is 1/2 way through ... there is another part of the wall to the south
Thomas keeps holidng on...
(GM whispered to Anval): It is metal .... lying on the floor
+=+ Jamison (1d6+4) = 7 +=+
[GM]: Jamison smokes a little
(Anval whispered to GM): Anne goes over and picks it up, if there are no creatures nearby... What is it?
[Jamison]: OOC: didn't know they had readi-rolls in this TL....
(GM whispered to Anval): When you enter the room ... there is a very small alter in the center. There are buriel chambers in the walls and a few of them have came open.
[Sir Cornelius]: where did the walls and stuff go?
[GM]: OOC: Sorry .. it was adding to the lag
[Jamison]: shall /can I move?
[GM]: Jamison ... you have a full action
[Jamison]: move towards ringed avenger....
[GM]: OOC: If you guys feel we need the map back ... I'll get it.... what do you think?
[Sir Cornelius]: why not play without it?
(Anval whispered to GM): What is the metal thing on the floor? Anne moves with great respect for the dead interred here...
[Anval]: yeah - we dont really need it right now...
[Jamison]: no problem either way, we just may need a few discriptions...
(GM whispered to Jackdaw): You see Anval entering a room at the end of the tunnel
[Jackdaw]: without works for me, relative positions can be placed as needed
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): follow
(GM whispered to Anval): It is a jeweled necklace .... that a skeleton corpse is wearing ... and there are a few of them .... and weapons too.
+=+ Lendyll (1d6+6) = 7 +=+
[Sir Cornelius]: GM can answer questions about the map and all...if we need it now
[GM]: Lendyll flies aniouxly not sure of what to do ... the fireball is keeping him back.
+=+ ~Red x (1d6+7) = 10 +=+
(Thomas whispered to GM): [This is very unusual...there is over 900 objects up...but very little in the way of items. I usually have big maps and I dont get over 700-800 with 5-6 AD&D sheets..Do you have alot of stuff in the GM Wizard?]]
(GM whispered to Thomas): Not terribly a lot .. I can cut it and see if it helps
[GM]: The fireball increases in power ... once more
+=+ Dirk (1d6+7) = 11 +=+
[GM]: Dirk stands
+=+ Sir C (1d6+7) = 13 +=+
(Thomas whispered to GM): Yeah...I got 98 objects now...That thing was HUGE ^_^
(GM whispered to Thomas): Where do you read that???
[Sir Cornelius]: stands
+=+ New Initiative Round +=+
+=+ Thomas (1d6+6) = 12 +=+
[GM]: Thomas ... balls in your court
[Thomas]: [Fireball is getting bigger and no one can reach the ring, correct?]
(GM whispered to Thomas): Where did you read the 98 objects? How do you do that?
(Thomas whispered to GM): Upper Left hand Corner
[GM]: No one has reached the ring yet.
(Thomas whispered to GM): Under Web.RPG
(GM whispered to Thomas): dud? .... never noticed it
(GM whispered to Thomas): I see now
(Thomas whispered to GM): Yeah 1000 is the real dange zone...Most rooms collapse at that point...
(GM whispered to Thomas): Thanks ... the GM Wizard must have been the culprit
[Thomas]: [Estimate distance to ring?]
[GM]: Each hex is 1 yd
(GM whispered to Thomas): Map caused it to jump up to 900 again
(Anval whispered to GM): Anne casts Detect Magic on the Necklace and the Weapons (skill-14)
(GM whispered to Anval): Roll
DICE for Anval: (3d6) : 3d6=1,6,4 = [ 11 ]
(Thomas whispered to GM): Jeez...Alright...I have bigger maps than this and I usually dont push it more than 300-400 objects...
(GM whispered to Jackdaw): You see some 'pretties' on the floor
Thomas pieres at the ring...
(Anval whispered to GM): made it by 3
[GM]: The ring is almost completely solid
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): What kind of pretties?
(Thomas whispered to GM): [Teleporting to the hex to the east of the ring...going to attempt to snag it...
(GM whispered to Anval): The necklace reeks of magic ... there is a sword near a different corpse that also is magic. And two rings
[GM]: okay
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): shineys? ribbands?
Thomas suddenly disapears...the air making a sucking sound as vacuum is filled in...
DICE for Thomas: (3d6) : 3d6=5,5,4 = [ 14 ]
[GM]: Move to the appropriate hex
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): Jackdaw will start playing softly and sense for magic
(GM whispered to Jackdaw): The necklace reeks of magic ... there is a sword near a different corpse that also is magic. And two rings
DICE for Thomas: (3d6) : 3d6=4,5,4 = [ 13 ]
[GM]: OOC: What was that for?
[Thomas]: [Body Sense]
[GM]: Thomas is confused and concentration is broken on his Manipulate Spell
+=+ Jamison (1d6+4) = 10 +=+
[GM]: Jamison?
[Jamison]: move towards ring...
[GM]: You are staring down a 3 point fireball
[GM]: Move
+=+ ~Red x (1d6+7) = 10 +=+
[Jamison]: ok, I seems to be moving slowly.....
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): other pretties?
(Thomas whispered to GM): [Body sense equals 15...Rolled a 13, why did the first spell break?]
(Anval whispered to GM): Would it be sacrilige to gather the magical items from the dead on the floor? Anne has no wish to steal from the dead...
(GM whispered to Anval): Roll vs Theology
(Anval whispered to GM): Theology (ral) -17
(To GM) DICE for Anval: (3d6) : 3d6=1,6,6 = [ 13 ]
(Anval whispered to GM): succeed by 4
[Jamison]:
(GM whispered to Anval): These souls have long past crossed into the gates of Rhisspen. They no longer have a need for them
[GM]: The fireball hovers in the air but the ring moves in rotation to the other side of the fireball.
+=+ Lendyll (1d6+6) = 9 +=+
[GM]: Lendyll attempts to grab the ring
[GM]: contest of DX
[GM]: Lendyll DX=14 Ring DX=14
DICE for GM: (3d6) : 3d6=6,4,5 = [ 15 ]
DICE for GM: (3d6) : 3d6=3,3,4 = [ 10 ]
(Anval whispered to GM): Anne and Jackdaw talked and decided it was more neccesary to help the rest of the voices in the skulls to the south, than to gather treasure... Anne heads south to finish the job - she'll come back for the treasure later...
[GM]: The Ring moves as Lendyll makes a grab ... so Lendyll misses.
(GM whispered to Anval): ;-}
+=+ Dirk (1d6+7) = 9 +=+
[GM]: Dirk moves to the action ... knife in hand
+=+ Sir C (1d6+7) = 8 +=+
Sir Cornelius begins to move toward the ring...as fast as he is able...shield up...screaming as loudly as he can...determined not to stop until he hits whatever is behind the damn ring....(or jamison...if he's in the way...or lendyll [just kidding!] <g>)
[GM]: Move
[Sir Cornelius]: oh...the map still up? ok...one sec...I closed it
[GM]: Not the map ... but the minis will do
(GM whispered to Thomas): Hey .. got rid of the map ... but it still shows 871 objects
+=+ New Initiative Round +=+
+=+ Sir C (1d6+7) = 12 +=+
[GM]: Lucky dog!
[GM]: Sir C???
[Sir Cornelius]: wow!
[Sir Cornelius]: coolness
[Sir Cornelius]: CHARGEEE!!!
[GM]: Did you reach the ring?
[Sir Cornelius]: oh wait...I was...overzealous
(Thomas whispered to GM): Hmmm...Dunno what that is about...I know that when you want to remove something from the Map Folder it is better to delete it rather than cut it....Cutting keeps it webrpg's memory and slows down the game as well.
[Sir Cornelius]: that's better
[Sir Cornelius]: what can I say? I want it done...NOW :)
+=+ Jamison (1d6+4) = 10 +=+
(GM whispered to Thomas): Teaching me all kinds of things tonight!!!
[GM]: Jamison ... your action?
[Jamison]: can I get there and attack?
(Thomas whispered to GM): Well, most of this is trial and error...things I have noticed over time...Also I have a friend who really likes maps...So he found a lot of stuff too...
[GM]: It looks like you are 3 hexes away
[Jamison]: ok
[GM]: Perhaps a slam attack or a wild swing
[Jamison]: wild swing is -?
[Sir Cornelius]: a lot
(Thomas whispered to GM): If you notice, WebRPG and your computers area for cutting and cclipping are completely seperate..
(GM whispered to Thomas): yep
[Jamison]: slam attack
[GM]: On the ring? ... or fireball? .. or what?
[Jamison]: is the fireball between me and the ring?
[GM]: yes ... it is about 1/2 hex to the south now
[GM]: Fireball to the south of the ring
(GM whispered to Anval): Sorry guys for you being out of action so long
(GM whispered to Jackdaw): Sorry guys for you being out of action so long
[Jamison]: I'm going to try to move behind the ring...
[GM]: move
(Anval whispered to GM): S'ok
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): happens, they are out of our action too
[Jamison]: ok?
(GM whispered to Jackdaw): Didn't think of that
(Anval whispered to GM): Just make sure those magic items don't get up and leave while i'm freeing souls! (lol/joke)
[GM]: yep
+=+ Dirk (1d6+7) = 10 +=+
[GM]: Dirk moves cautiously in closer
+=+ Thomas (1d6+6) = 9 +=+
Thomas looks in front of him and stare in amazement as the ring slides away from him, he curses...loudly.
[GM]: Your action? ... besides cursing?
[Thomas]: [Was my concentration broke for the first spell? I made my body roll.]
[GM]: Manipultate?
[Thomas]: [Correct]
[GM]: What did you roll?
[Thomas]: [I rolled a 13...Whic passes for both the spell and my body roll.]
[GM]: I thought you rolled a 13
[GM]: Your skill is 11?
[Thomas]: [Body: 14 and Spell is 15
[GM]: Well ... you are at -2 .. for changing facing on Body Sense
[Thomas]: [Oh, I see...Still getting used to these rules.]
[GM]: me too LoL
[Thomas]: [Alright, then how close is the ring to my location?]
[GM]: X marks the spot
Thomas tries to snatch the ring from the air...
[Sir Cornelius]: where is the fireball compared with the ring?
[GM]: You will have to move in one hex to do that
[Thomas]: [Okay..Can I still make a grab for it? My move is 6.]
[GM]: yeah .. step and grab
Thomas lunges forward...
[GM]: Contest of DX
DICE for Thomas: (3d6) : 3d6=6,1,6 = [ 13 ]
[GM]: Ring Dx=14
DICE for GM: (3d6) : 3d6=4,2,3 = [ 9 ]
[Jamison]: shoot
[Sir Cornelius]: BANG!
[Sir Cornelius]: oh, sorry
[ curiousg joined the game ]
[Sir Cornelius]: wrong game
[GM]: Thats one fast ring
[curiousg]: hiya, sorry for being gone. had a super long debate meeting.
[GM]: Just in time for the pain
[curiousg]: woohoo
+=+ ~Red x (1d6+7) = 9 +=+
[Sir Cornelius]: LOL
Thomas howls in frustration as the ring escapes his grasp...his sweaty, lanky hair falls in front of his eyes as he gazes at the elusive ring.
[Lendyll]: ooc:steps into character
[Sir Cornelius]: and the everpresent fireball? :)
(Lendyll whispered to GM): what was i doing?
[GM]: The fire ball drops ....
[GM]: Straight down and hits the floor
[GM]: OOC: Can you dodge an area spell?
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): do the skeletomns on the floor look like they were laid out purposfully or do they lay where they dropped?
(To GM) DICE for Jackdaw: (3d6) : 3d6=3,2,3 = [ 8 ]
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): perception roll 15
(GM whispered to Jackdaw): No ... they fell from there resting place in the wall
[Sir Cornelius]: I can sure try!
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): thanks
[GM]: The fireball hits the floor and explodes
[Sir Cornelius]: might a doge minimize damage from an area spell?
Lendyll examines the situation
[GM]: Good question ... I am not sure that you get to dodge it .... any thoughts?
[Lendyll]: my idea
(Anval whispered to GM): I think that a successfull dodge would move the person 1 hex away from the fire, possible reducing damage by 1d, or even to 0 if they are on the outskirts...
[Sir Cornelius]: I really don't think you can
[Lendyll]: if you are one hex from being out, then make a dodge
[Thomas]: [I am blinking...Is that ok?]
[Lendyll]: don't know if you can, but i like that idea well enough
[Jamison]: fireball, counts as a missle spell, you are casting the ball down...
[Lendyll]: but explosive is an area affect
[Jackdaw]: Dodge, probably not, retreat maybe yes
[Sir Cornelius]: but it explodes in an area
[GM]: Yes .. if you make a dodge you can move one hex away from the blast
[Jackdaw]: you might get further away from ground zero
[Sir Cornelius]: retreat to increase the range...? that's an idea...wonder if that is possible
[GM]: Lendyll: How are area spells usually handled? .. DO you get a dodge?
[Lendyll]: that is the way we do it...if you are one hex from being out of the area affect, then dodge to get out.
[Lendyll]: i don't know ruling
[GM]: Okay everyone roll base dodge.... except for Thomas who is blinking
[Sir Cornelius]: who's dodging...we don't need no steenkin dodge :)
DICE for Lendyll: (3d6) : 3d6=2,5,6 = [ 13 ]
Sir Cornelius is charging!
[GM]: hehehe
[Jamison]: Acrobatic dodge?
Thomas looks up wide eyed at the fireball though his hair..."Oh, shi..." and he is gone.

[GM]: Sir C spies the ring
[Thomas]: /he looks in horror at the flames engulfing the area where he just was a moment ago..He can see the dark, chared outline of the rest of the heroes...and smell the roasted flesh. His stomach churning and panic rising, he can hear own voice screaming "SISTER ANNE...! COME HERE QUICK!!
[GM]: OOC: Sir C .. perhaps you are right ... but I will stick with what I said
(Anval whispered to GM): Do I hear Thomas's screams?

[Anval]: Anne says "Jackdaw, I'll be alright here... could you go see what they are yelling about?"
Thomas shakes off the daze of the port and bolts over to where Dirk is laying...
(GM whispered to Sir Cornelius): Did you go for the ring?
(Sir Cornelius whispered to GM): it's foremost on my mind...yes
[GM]: Dirk: What the hey??

[GM]: OOC: Jamison is that a smoking jacket that you are wearing/
[GM]: Yes, Jamison has the hot foot
[Jamison]: Where there's fire, I smoke.....
Thomas looks around for the accursed ring...
(GM whispered to Sir Cornelius): What did you do with the ring?
Lendyll joins in the look.
(Sir Cornelius whispered to GM): look at it...for a second...then turn around with it...and maybe putting it in a pocket or pouch or something after a few seconds
(GM whispered to Sir Cornelius): Upon touching it ... even with the gloves/gauntlets .. you have a vision.
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): let me know when Jackdaw gets there
Jamison sits and nurses his injuries....
(Sir Cornelius whispered to GM): very cool...lay it on me guru :)
(GM whispered to Sir Cornelius): You feel the hair raise on the back of your head and the vision forms: There are 100's of people standing around ... chanting ... and there is a sacrifice
(GM whispered to Sir Cornelius): A small boy
[Thomas]:
Sir Cornelius begins to stare off into space
(GM whispered to Sir Cornelius): As the blood spills from his throat the crowd of cultists chant Dal Drakur ... Dal Drakur .... O' mighty One ....
(GM whispered to Sir Cornelius): Then the vision fades
(Sir Cornelius whispered to GM): I drop the damn thing...get my mace (secondary weapon <g>) and try to smash it...
[GM]: Jackdaw arrives
[GM]: Thomas hears a tink on the floor
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): should take 5-10 sec I'd think

(Sir Cornelius whispered to GM): /he figures it's cursed...or at the very least not very good to have/allow to exist...
(GM whispered to Thomas): Roll
Jackdaw moves across the room towards everyone
DICE for Thomas: (3d6) : 3d6=5,3,4 = [ 12 ]
(GM whispered to Thomas): Bring the ring to you I guess?
Thomas puts out his hand and calls the ring to him...it moves by his will and he drops into his waiting hand, but not before he raps his hand in the cloth of his cloak.
[GM]: Sir C ... as you raise your mace the ring begins to move
[GM]: It ends up in Thomas' hand
Sir Cornelius stops his swing...frightened look on his face... "No!"
(GM whispered to Thomas): As the ring touches your hand ... you begin to drift off into a dream.
[Jackdaw]: "OOh a prettie!"
(GM whispered to Thomas): You feel the hair raise on the back of your head and the vision forms: There are 100's of people standing around ... chanting ... and there is a sacrifice
(GM whispered to Thomas): A small boy
(GM whispered to Thomas): As the blood spills from his throat the crowd of cultists chant Dal Drakur ... Dal Drakur .... O' mighty One ....
[Jackdaw]: "Where'dya find it? We finded some too"
Lendyll flutters to jackdaw to look at the ring.
(GM whispered to Thomas): Then the vision fades
[Jackdaw]: "did somebodie called?"
[GM]: Lendyll: The ring is the color of shiney copper .. with a blood red stone

[GM]: OOC: Okay ... ready to end it here?
[Thomas]: "I saw...a fire with hunderds of people all around..and a small boy..he was murdered, sarcroficed for someone...It was terrible..." THomas looks down at the ring with a distant look in his eyes...
