D&D Act One Scene III - Red Moon over Thurmunton

Fourier

Day 1:

The adventurers leave the city of Soetrard behind them as they venture forth into the farmlands beyond the city gates. Here small local farmers work from dawn to dusk in the fields to feed Soetrard with all the grains, wheat and oats it needs to function on a daily basis.

The trip is mostly uneventful. Farmers waving at the party, small children pointing and laughing at the halflings and the odd farmer's daughter taken in by the handsome elf.

That night, with the full moon hanging high in the sky, approaching the fork where the roads to Thurmunton and Cantry separate, the horses stomp and look agitated.

Saeros and BandyLegs make out eleven figures in the shape of men shambling in the nearby trees, approaching the group slowly. The humans and halflings clearly can't see them yet. The heat from their bodies is low. Saeros makes the conclusion immediately, undead....zombies!!

Bandy catches the wineskin with surprising nimbleness despite his current condition.

'Cheers lad, keep it comin too! I think I'm firmly secured now. Shall we head for the village?'

OOC: Rolled for Dex btw, rolled an 8 and my Dex is 10.

Ekbard hops on Menace and follows Bandylegless' lead.

robyntmorton

Xanthea shrugs and follows the others, wondering if she should ask the healer about these episodes of blanking out.

Necro

Bandylegs, with a sorrowful look behind at the tomb nods at Ekbard and pats Shadowflame on the nose. He takes off at a canter back towards Thurmonton.

OOC: I'll leave it there till Fourier gets on in case he has other plans for us

Split what money? We have not even entered the tomb yet. Its downstairs at the spiral staircase, if we are to believe the evil bastard antonio who tried to kill Betty, Bandy, Othegre and I.
If Bandy, Othegre, or Betty want a cut of the few trinkets I grabbed on the way out of that trap, then thats fair enough but I'll be looking for my fair share of their trinkets too.

so its finders keepers, fair enough, i thought we were a team

Ooc. On the one hand, some of us went in and took on all the risk, so we should reap all the reward. On the other, there's a reason we were facing a demoralized and much thinned orc horde and your contribution needs recognising.

So, put the potions of speed, longevity and esp, and your fancy sword in the pot and let's divvy the spoils fairly....

Bandylegs peers down at Goodie.

'Are we sharing the proceeds of the troll's treasure chest as well lad? I saw ye fill yer pockets. Ekbard has money enough to equip us all if we require it. I'm sure, given the lawful *stares at Ekbard with a frown on his face* trustworthy chap that he is, he'll see fit if we need some of the proceeds for.... things we might require, he'll be happy to share.

Unfortunately I lost all the gold I had brought with me in my attempts to escape. And... *sighs* Betty had 1500GP on her also. If ye want that, ye can go visit the slime god lad. 3000GP in all, an axe, a backpack and 2 rations as well... oh, and me banded mail armour.'

is irrelevant ooc its goodie the veteran that will form his opinions not me

goodie offered the sword to whoever wanted it straight away , he paid a terrible price for drinking the potion of esp and he drank the others to imprive very 1/2ling skills which will be needed for the team

see how you do with a thief and hafling and also magic users that feel sharing is not partvbof the game, we were told whoever went in gets an equal share.

these conversations should be had in charachter s as not to confuse the posters with the charachters

If its all hands for them selves i think i'll be quicker to things than most, although i wouldn't leave a fellow behind for a bit of glass

"Well the potions are drank now, no point in arguing over those.

Bickering out here is going to make noneof us richer and all of us colder, are we to go down and explore this tomb or nay?"

Bandylegs, still tied to his horse looks around at Moy.

'Explore if ye want, cleric. I'll have no quarrel with any of ye who wish to continue the quest. But unless ye want to strap me to Ekbard's back over there, I dinnae think I'll be joining ye.

If that is what ye wish, I'll ask Ekbard to take the horses with me to Thurmonton where we can stable 'em and I'll rest up till ye return.'

Elin steps forward. "I'm for searching the tomb if for no other reason than to find out what happened to Othegre and Saeros. We can follow on to the village if any of us make it out alive"

[OOC: I'm heading to bed now but assume Elin will search the tomb with whoever is going in. Try not to kill me please! I'm only 3HP]

sKeith

"I think we should save this tomb for our way back from the tower, as bandy will not be able join us and i'm afraid that would anger the golden dragon. I grabbed a couple items from beneath the church which I believe will keep you all happy. Once i am able to sell them off, you will all get your share. Come with bandy and me back to the town, allow me to sell these trinckets off and let us take stock again then."

"I doubt the orcs will forget because two raiding parties was killed, if we don't go in the next day or two we may not get another chance before they pick the place clean."

Bandylegs looks at Ekbard.

'Fear not. It seems their minds are made up. If ye wish to join them go ahead, I'm sure Betty's father will wish to hear word of her in Thurmonton.

Ah Betty, what did I do? I dragged ye deep into the bowels of a slime god and got ye killed!'

Bandylegs sniffles, shakes his head and drains his wineskin.

'Ekbard, more wine! When ye return I'll be at the tavern. Drinkin' meself silly and longin' for me Betty.'

OOC: Ah cool, that's not too bad tbf I was expecting a goose chase a cross the continent. If it's just me and Elin going downstairs I can be persuaded to keep the party together.

Will we shtall the digger until Saeros shows up/is killed anyways?

"Moy, i snaged two priceless stones and about 1900GP worth of treasure from the belly of that soet god. your share is one eight of that. I believe one of the stones is worth approximately 20000GP"
"now, i know i am the most trustworthy person around, but i could be killed or robbed by bandits and your share in that would be gone"
"can i convince your to at least come and protect me and these stones from bandits until you can get your share"

"Which way did you do Othegre? I can't see you". I cast Magic Missile at the slime.

Through the slime Saeros can make out three rooms. By the time he gets his bearings Othegre is gone.

The magic missle careens through the slime, burning a clear path to the room to his West.
