2.8 Guard Chamber

[Jolith]

Thinking that the others would finish off the remaining kobolds he was surprised to see one standing. Raising his hands once more, he pulls on the power of The Raven Queen to send more tendrils of ice towards his foes.

Thursagan will move to C5 and charge to E8, attempting to smash the kobold in the current before it gets away:

Orsik missed the kobold thrashing in the water, but succeeded in chilling the one still on land.

Thursagan charged forward and put the drowning one out of it's misery.

Harknail moved up and finished off the remaining kobold. Then he retreated to bring his light further from the tunnel to the next chamber.

Combat time ends. Tag all

[candi]

As the sounds of combat faded Raylynn looked up and sighed, "Aww, I'll save this for later then." she handed the small purple globe to her familiar which did something with it. She looked around at her allies, surveying their wounds while her familiar handed her a syringe, "I need a donor or two." she grinned, brandishing the long needle, her eyes hungrily flashing from one ally to the next.

Raylynn has 1 unused healing infusion which can grant someone Surge+1 HP (without spending a surge)- which I should've mentioned when I used one on Sart, she didn't have to spend a surge to get that healing from Raylynn.

Also, I need 2 donor healing surges so I can make 2 more infusions. I'm looking at Harknail with his 13 unspent surges.

[Ogremind]

Zachary looks dubiously at the long needle, but curiosity wins out. Notebook in hand, he presents himself as a donor.
Zack has yet to be attacked in the last two encounters, let alone damaged. Harknail can use his surges as lay-on-hands and second winds, so it might be better to take them from someone who isn't using them.

[elricz]

Thursagan wants to hear more about the needle. If that is a way to lend his strength to his companions, he is willing to do it.
Additionally, this time he spends one of his surges to get back to full health. No boost needed, just a quick gulp of dwarven spirits to walk off the bruises.

[candi]

Raylynn grins at Zachary, "Alright tough boy, I'll take a drop." she holds the syringe menacingly over her head and drives it into the mages arm with surprisingly little force. The tip of the needle slips under his skin and into his vein, she pulls back the plunger and the vial fills with blood and she removes the needle, Zachary barely felt a pinch.

"Thanks! Whose next?!" She turned her eye to Thursagen who seemed to be willing, "With a few drops of humanoid blood I can concoct these lovely vials of healing infusions. And I do like experimenting with different sources of life energy." A mischievous grin crawls across her lips.

I'll take 1 surge off of Zack then. If no one takes my Surge+1 surgeless heal then I won't need a second, and though he's been unharmed I'd rather spread the surge stealing love around. Worst case Raylynn will take one of her own.

[Ogremind]

Fighting of a moment's wooziness, Zackary sits down, scribbling notes into his book.

Harknail has yet to come close to using all of his surges, so he is a good candidate donor. Especially since he is a likely candidate for receiving them.

Unfortunately, I left my laptop at home today, along with all my notes.

[crysun]

Hey everyone. I'll try to catch up tonight. Been busy.

[candi]

wb crysun.
And the beauty about Raylynn's healing is she can yoink surges from those with excess to pass them out to those without - borrowing a few from whomever at the time seems like they have too many I love artificer's, their healing mechanic is really geared for keeping a party rolling through an exceptionally long adventuring day.

Also, Harknail, I don't know how codified you have your note system (it's probably pretty esoteric) but I personally aim to keep all of my game notes either in a private forum only I can access (which it doesn't look like you have one here) or on a private online note pad (such as in a google doc) so I can D&D from any which where! Just a thought

[Ogremind]

...not to mention that Artifacer's starting infusions effectively give the party extra healing surges over the Artifacer's listed amount.

Well it's very rare for me to be without my laptop
in general my notes consist of:
a text file for the characters (just the pasted status)
an RTF file for the monsters (monster stat blocks plus one line per monster for HP and conditions)
a Canvas file for the map (lets me use anything for a map)
PDF files of the various characters (easier to search than the webpages, used occasionally)
a text file for the treasure parcels (used very occasionally)

So other than the map, nothing fancy. But I find it of tools easier to work with than Web tools. I keep looking at new tools as I hear about them.

Laira Elereth suggests,
"We're starting to get pretty close to the kobold main camp. So we'll need to douse all lights once we get around the corner. Watch your step, there is another bridge over there across the stream."

Once the group is done resting, etc. Laira will carefully head back around the corner with her torch covered. She will be probing with her halberd as a short pole. Laira plans on either being able to see the kobolds from their own fire or getting close enough that she can see them when she suddenly exposes her own torch.

[harknail]

How are people planing on getting across the stream? Not everyone is good at jumping.

[Ogremind]

Zachary looks at the bridge-trap. "Say, is there anyway we could rig this to actually support us?"

[luke]

Sanem suggests tying a rope around people who are about to try the jump, to haul them across should they fail to make it.

He then attempts the Jump himself:

Just a reminder that Zachary was already down 2 surges from being up all night and is now down 3 surges.

Looking at it closely, Zachary can see that the bridge did not fall apart so much as open like a trap door. There are a lot of extra pieces to the bridge that look like moving parts.

Sanem is able to jump across with a running start.
