Revision as of 00:09, 31 January 2011
Starring: Bo, Fuelwen, Brilla, and TskTsk
Guest Starring: General Linaeus, Callow
Challenge: Xerfilstyx; Darkcullis
Location: Ruined city of Do Wop
Date Played: 25 Jan 2010
Do Wop lays in ruins
TskTsk: Once the city was in sight we were shocked to see it laid to waste. We pieced together the story from the survivors, who told us that devils or demons ransacked the city with ease. In fact, not a single opponent was dropped. Based on the descriptions given to us, we established that the attack was made by fairly well-ranked devils. General Linaeus returned after the invasion and declared himself king.
Scour the library, find a sellsword
TskTsk: The private library that Mother directed us to was in ruins and throughly looted. Still holding out hope, we camped there for several nights as we left no stone unturned for three days. Our search yielded what we desired, the tome with instructions on where the Celestians are and the ritual to slow down the islands.
The same day that we found the book there is a knock on the door. He introduces himself as Callow, a tall, dark-skinned man with white tattoos. He tells us that he is a sellsword and we hem and haw a bit until he tells us that he can cast Haste. This earns him a half share.
Hunting the Styx Beast
TskTsk: Callow tells us that he has found the trail of an extraplanar beast who remains within Do Wop. We pick up the trail and stalk it to it's lair, an open-air arena. After watching it and exploring it's den, we plan to hide in it's lair (a building in the center fo the arena) and pounce when it arrives. Our elder banishes it with a thought and a gesture, which amazes me. The battle seems won, except that the elder and the clutch mother continue to see some beast. I climb to the roof and see nothing as my chest is attacked and I am held by some unseen entity. The attacks are small but quickly add up and I sync up with my clutch mates. My body hardens but is easily bypassed by this beast. Eventually we coordinate attacks to strike when the beast strikes and we drive it off.
Back to the Inn
TskTsk: The elder shifts the world around us and we are transported back to the inn. The elder's powers amaze me and seem to far outstrip what the rest of us are capable of. Perhaps this is a side effect of resigning from death? Killabron informs Brilla that she is a foster mother—for a devil child.
