GoldenOuroboros · 08-19-2003, 10:17 PM

Darghon heads upstairs with the rest of them...

Apokx · 08-20-2003, 12:21 AM

Attrah simply shrugs.

"Sure."

krazixs · 08-20-2003, 07:07 AM

Krazixs follows as usual in the middle.

Bob Biter · 08-20-2003, 05:14 PM

Without a word, Vinoh falls in and heads up the stairway.

rogue49 · 08-20-2003, 05:35 PM

* As you head up, you start feeling a strong breeze.

Turning the corner you see the sky above you with dark clouds.
Drizzle starts to fall on your face with the an impending storm in the distance.
Lightning flashes lighting up the clouds briefly.

When you get to the top of the step you find you have come out to the top of a castle.
A grand dramatic dark gothic castle.

With a tall spire behind and a few half turrets before you down the walkway.
You are outside a vaulted roof, actually two.
And beside a very large turret making side of the doorway you've emerged from.

A wide walkway around most of the walls of the keep you notice as you squint your eyes in the wind.
Far below these parapets are the shining wet cobblestones of the courtyard.

You see that you could go straight-ahead on this walkway across the wall going across the courtyard to the outer walls,
where it splits both ways.
Or you could go on the walkway to your right down to one of the smaller half turrets which are hollowed out for archers,
and where it turns right.

You are amazed that this great keep is
on the edge of a cliff, shear & jagged chasms on all sides.
In the distance, dark valley & mountain, cover by dead forests.

This is all you can see from this angle, but others might reveal more.
A brief gust of wind buffets you.*

Apokx · 08-20-2003, 08:56 PM

"Straight-ahead,who agrees?"

The dark knight waits for replies.

GoldenOuroboros · 08-20-2003, 09:50 PM

With a cheeky grin "Thanks Thantos, now I'm cold and getting wet"

Darghon follows the group

Minx · 08-21-2003, 08:53 AM

D'Aleen wanders close to the edge of the walkway to look down over the edge and shivers a little at the desolate view below. Closing her eyes she "feels" for any presence of any creatures in the dead forest below. Slowly opening her eyes she frowns slightly at the lack of living creatures she can sence. Hoping that her gifts haven't been smothered in this place of evil she turns to the rest of the group as the bitter wind winds her cloak around her.

"It wouldn't hurt to look around while we are up here....perhaps we shall discover something by taking a look on the other side."

Bob Biter · 08-21-2003, 03:44 PM

"Personally, I'm all for checking out the ledge skirting the turrets. Also, if Darghon wishes to back me up, we could levitate to the tall spire behind us, to see what's there."

Minx · 08-22-2003, 08:29 AM

"That's a good idea Vinoh. Why don't you and Darghon explore the spires. I'm going to go straight ahead with Attrah and whoever else wants to come along to discover what we can see from the far side of the keep's walls."

And, with that, D'Aleen pulls her bow from her shoulder and starts carefully along the straight walkway and onwards to the point where it branches in two.

Cubby · 08-22-2003, 12:00 PM

"I'll go with D'Aleen and Attrah. Just let me get my crossbow loaded..."

Thantos sheaths his sword and pulls out his crossbow. Pulling back the wire, he locks it in place and places a bolt into the bow.

"OK...let's go, Attrah, you first, then D'Aleen, I'll take the rear-guard."

Apokx · 08-22-2003, 12:48 PM

Readying sword and shield,the knight takes lead and begins moving forward.
Keeping an eye on the path ahead,Attrah watches for any pitfalls and the like that may occur.

krazixs · 08-22-2003, 09:33 PM

Krazixs follows Attrah standing behind D'aleen and in front of Thantos.

GoldenOuroboros · 08-22-2003, 11:49 PM

Darghon closes his eyes and concentrates, levitating slightly off the ground "So where to first Vinoh?" Darghon looks to the rest of the group hoping that they will be ok...

Bob Biter · 08-23-2003, 10:26 PM

Activating a power that has become almost second nature to him, Vinoh effortlessly lifts off the turret and joins Darghon.

"I think we should check out that tall spire first, since it would be a pretty good vantage point for anyone or anything that would want to ambush us, or at least keep track of our movements. Afterwards, we could do a general sweep of the turrets and finally join the rest of the group by the far wall. What do you think?"

With that, the mind mage takes out his scout's club and turns to face the tall spire, anxious to explore it.

GoldenOuroboros · 08-25-2003, 02:43 AM

Darghon finding it a little hard at first seeing he hasn't done it in a while finally gets the grip of it and then follows Vinoh over to the spire...

rogue49 · 08-25-2003, 04:04 AM

Darghon & Vinoh:
* Both of you raise into the air.
The wind is much more shear up here without the castle's walls sheilding you.

From this vantage your view is dominated by the castle.
It is surrounded by high walls on all sides, all with walkways atop.
The courtyard within is filled with thick flowing fog, difficult to penetrate visually.

In the center is one thin spire about four hundred feet high, with a pointed roof, with a large hole in it.
To either side of the spire, are two large columns,
turrets of the same wide width, easily fifty feet across.
however the farther one is about a hundred feet taller than the one you emerged from,
which is about two hundred feet high.
You see a bridge between the two.

To the left of the turrets seems to be the main part of the castle, much lower.
Square with worn & slick vaulted roofs, one in the center and 2 perpendicular to each side
This is framed by a walkway also with the corners of the keep with half-turrets, hollowed out.

To the right, seems to be the domed roof of the Cathedral you were in
smooth wide rounded worn roof and with broken & boarded windows*

The rest of the party:
*Down the slick walkway you go
The stone worn smooth from centuries of weather
The wind pushing you to & fro, threatening to throw you off the edge.

It is difficult to see as you move forward, pushing yourself
When you get to the end of the connecting walkway
you come to the outer wall of the castle,
it extending into other walkways to either side surrounding the whole.

Over the ramparts, you look down upon the ancient walls of this keep, about one hundred & fifty feet high.
And at the bottom, your vision extends into a deep chasm, which goes into darkness
The flashes of lightning lights up the cliffs briefly, showing you the extent of thier depths.

Farther into the distance from this height you see a river flowing by through a small lake
and further on under a high bridge stratling the cliffs above.*

All:
*You all hear a shriek from above, only muted a bit by the winds surrounding you. *

krazixs · 08-25-2003, 07:28 AM

"What was that?"

Cubby · 08-25-2003, 10:05 AM

"I don't like the sound of that...let's get under cover. We're sitting ducks out here on the wall."

Thantos looks around trying to find the source of the sound. Keeping his crossbow up and ready to fire he starts moving towards the nearest shelter, trying to prod the other's in his party on.

Minx · 08-25-2003, 11:21 AM

"Looks like some unwanted company guys, hope Darghon and Vinoh are okay up there..."

Looking skyward but not seeing their threat yet, D'Aleen quickly follows Thantos to get to some shelter so they can see what they are up against and defend themselves. Gesturing to the others to hurry, she catches up to the knight...

GoldenOuroboros · 08-25-2003, 04:31 PM

Darghon looks around for the source of the shriek.. "Vinoh, I think we should move quickly.. I don't want to be up here when what ever that was decides to show itself..." Darghon heads for the tallest spire and sets himself on the roof still using his telekinesis to steady himself..

Bob Biter · 08-25-2003, 05:29 PM

"Good idea, Darghon."

Vinoh raises himself further until he reaches the top of the tallest spire and lands on it.

"The source of that shriek is probably closer to us than our companions below. Stay sharp, my friend, we might see some action sooner than we think!"

Apokx · 08-25-2003, 06:07 PM

Attrah follows D'Aleen,Thantos and Krazixs to the shelter,letting the others gain more cover than himself.
Raising his shield,he tried to peer through the night sky...even though he knew it was in vain.
Trying to concentrate passed the clanking of water on his armor,the knight began to listen intently.

"D'Aleen,do you hear the creature? I need a general direction.I do not wish to fight deaf and blind."

GoldenOuroboros · 08-25-2003, 07:40 PM

Darghon finding a good place to hold himself looks at vinoh, puts his finger over his lips making a shhh movement... then winks and mutters a few words

*Casts invisible - Self*

turning himself and his belongings invisible.. using his telekinetic powers to slow his decent he goes slowly down into the hole in the roof... not quite touching the bottom of the floor...

rogue49 · 08-26-2003, 05:44 AM

* The shriek you hear is closer now.
Above you and coming in near the corner of the outer walls.

You see a very large dragon-like creature, long of tail and mostly wing
Sail down out of the dark sky, winds buffeting it greatly.

It settles on the edge of one of the half-turrets on the inner walkway nearer to you.
It doesn't seem to notice you yet...maybe you hidden by the weather.

It's long thin neck raises it's smaller dragon-lizard-like head,
shrieking again in the air, you see the many pointed teeth.
It shifts back and forth on the edge with its large claws,
its skin slick from the rain. *

krazixs · 08-26-2003, 06:32 AM

"Curious, I wish Darghon were with us, maybe he could tell us what manner of beast this is."

Cubby · 08-26-2003, 12:00 PM

Raising his crossbow in case the creature attacks, Thantos whispers to the others..

"Everyone stay still and quiet...perhaps it is just resting and it will fly away. If we don't have to fight a dragon all the better.. "

(OOC: Just wondering how close we are to shelter. Just want to know in case we have time to run to it. )

GoldenOuroboros · 08-26-2003, 03:20 PM

Darghon rests himself lightly onto the floor in the turret and moves over to the window being cautious not to let the creature see him.. knowing all well that most Dragons and their sub-species can see the invisible... Darghon carefully looks to see how many legs it has, what shape it is and what colour...

Bob Biter · 08-26-2003, 04:46 PM

Watching Darghon take cover inside the spire, Vinoh positions himself so that the structure may offer him the best possible cover. Then, he concentrates on the creature, attempting to read its general mood...

*Psychic power: empathy*

rogue49 · 08-26-2003, 06:55 PM

* Most of the party is right out in the open on the other side of the crossing wall walkway on the outer wall.
You are diagonally across from the creature, the courtyard far below.

The closest doorway, is straight in front of you across the slick worn path.
Where you came from.
You notice that this would place you somewhat closer to the creature, also.
But that doorway is some distance from the half-turret is standing on too. *

GoldenOuroboros · 08-26-2003, 07:12 PM

"..A Wyvern" Darghon looks again.. "Yep definetly a Wyvern"

Noticing his friends out in the open.. Darghon realises he's got to do something. Darghon extends his wings... "No.. not yet.. Shall wait and see what happens.." The invisible Darghon, telekinetically and slowly, moves up to were his friend Vinoh is.. "Vinoh it's me.. I'm ready to take flight if anything happens.. Might have to play a game of Cat and Mouse.."

"I don't know much about the Wyvern, but I do know that they aren't as smart as my Kin, well some of.." Darghon keeps watching the Wyvern "They're not to respected in the dragon realm.. hrmm.. I might try contacting it"

"But before I do are you able to get some sort of reading off it?"

Minx · 08-26-2003, 09:13 PM

" Well there's your answer Attrah. Down quickly before it sees us..." D'Aleen whispers to the others as she crouches down against the small edge of the walkway. Aiming her bow at the beast she is reluctant to attack it until they can determine what it will do. Still...they are practically sitting prey if it decides to attack. Sensing nothing from the creature she glances at the others.
"Let it make the first move shall we...if it leaves we can go back the way we came and meet up with the others. If not...well let's hope we get some airborne help from Vinoh & Darghon."

Bob Biter · 08-26-2003, 09:30 PM

Vinoh turns to where he thinks his friend is...

"Hmm... I'm trying, my friend, but it's harder than usual, for some reason. Can you see the others? Are they about to attack this thing? If so, then I fear a concerted effort might be our only chance at beating this... Wyvern."

Then, closing his eyes, Vinoh sends a psychic message to his companions below:

"My friends, it seems I can't get a straight reading of this thing's emotions, so therefore I don't know its intentions or even if it spotted us. Should we decide to attack, I suggest a massive first strike from you guys using ranged weapons. Hopefully, this would disorient and surprise it long enough so that Darghon and I can get our licks in from behind, after which we can continue our attacks from opposite sides until this creature is either subdued or flees. What do you think?"

redravin40 · 08-26-2003, 10:03 PM

Father Quadrial, knowing full well when he is hopelessly outclassed, ducks down as low as he can and trys to keep track of the rest of the party.
Reaching into his robes he pulls out a small flask.
The medallion around his neck is muttering in a soto voice, "If you die, I'll never forgive you."

GoldenOuroboros · 08-26-2003, 11:06 PM

"Should I try to telepathically communicate with it?" Darghon looks at Vinoh

krazixs · 08-27-2003, 06:36 AM

Concentrating Krazixs answers Vinoh's psychic messageVinoh, I'm thinking we need an all out attack by those of us who can use magic. For those of us who can't the use of physical force may best be used while the creature is stunned from a magical attack.

Cubby · 08-27-2003, 09:15 AM

"You are all thinking of attacking this thing? What if it can shoot things from it's mouth? All it needs to do is move beyond our ranged weapons and shoot at us. I think we should go back into the castle and wait. Or go back down to that other level and see if we can find anything else out from inside.

At the very least we should start moving back towards shelter...air attacks when we are on an open walkway are not easy to repel. Who is coming with me back to the door? If we move slowly and keep an eye on the creature we should be no worse off if it comes at us."

That said Thantos moves over beside D'Aleen and whispers.

"D'Aleen, it is just not in my nature to attack such a creature without cause. Surely you must feel the same thing? If we leave it be perhaps none of us or it will have to die today."

(OOC: I'll be out of the house for the rest of today and tommorrow (a mini-vacation of sorts with my wife). Feel free to use me as you'd like if this thing attacks. I have my crossbow ready and have a sword and can cast Web and stick to walls...cheers all, be back on Friday).

krazixs · 08-27-2003, 09:47 AM

Krazixs leans over to whisper to Thantos.

"Agreed Thantos, however, my fear is simple. Wyvern's have never been known to be on the side of good, as their very nature is chaotic. Also we are in a bit of a bind as we stand upon a wall in the open, with cover a good sprint away, I think we are merely preparing for the worst."

Beltruckus · 08-27-2003, 01:07 PM

"You try to get out of the weather and what happens? A wyvern lands right above you" Kentelos mutters to himself. "Well lets see what we can do"

Kentelos looks up. Clearly in deep concentration, his brown eyes begin to shift to a redish orange color, he remains this way for several seconds. Suddenly the air under the wyvern ignites shooting flames up and around it. The wyvern takes flight hovering above

krazixs · 08-27-2003, 01:13 PM

"hmph. . . Intringuing, well I guess it's a bit past the time for subtelty" With a wry smile the elf mutters a quick prayer and concentrates surronding his companions on the wall with a shield of power.

rogue49 Loser	* The shriek you hear is closer now. Above you and coming in near the corner of the outer walls. You see a very large dragon-like creature, long of tail and mostly wing Sail down out of the dark sky, winds buffeting it greatly. It settles on the edge of one of the half-turrets on the inner walkway nearer to you. It doesn't seem to notice you yet...maybe you hidden by the weather. It's long thin neck raises it's smaller dragon-lizard-like head, shrieking again in the air, you see the many pointed teeth. It shifts back and forth on the edge with its large claws, its skin slick from the rain. *

krazixs Psycho Location: courtin in the kitchen	"Curious, I wish Darghon were with us, maybe he could tell us what manner of beast this is." __________________ The Kender in your party has just screamed in fear. Please roll a d20 to see how many of your body parts are still identifiable.

Cubby Insane Location: BC, Canada	Raising his crossbow in case the creature attacks, Thantos whispers to the others.. "Everyone stay still and quiet...perhaps it is just resting and it will fly away. If we don't have to fight a dragon all the better.. " (OOC: Just wondering how close we are to shelter. Just want to know in case we have time to run to it. ) __________________ Don't be irreplaceable - if you can't be replaced, you can't be promoted!

GoldenOuroboros The Cheshire Grin... Location: An Aussie Outback	Darghon rests himself lightly onto the floor in the turret and moves over to the window being cautious not to let the creature see him.. knowing all well that most Dragons and their sub-species can see the invisible... Darghon carefully looks to see how many legs it has, what shape it is and what colour... __________________ Can you see me grin grin grrriiiiinnnning?!

Bob Biter Non-smokers die everyday Location: Montreal	Watching Darghon take cover inside the spire, Vinoh positions himself so that the structure may offer him the best possible cover. Then, he concentrates on the creature, attempting to read its general mood... Psychic power: empathy __________________ A plan is just a list of things that don't happen.

rogue49 Loser	* Most of the party is right out in the open on the other side of the crossing wall walkway on the outer wall. You are diagonally across from the creature, the courtyard far below. The closest doorway, is straight in front of you across the slick worn path. Where you came from. You notice that this would place you somewhat closer to the creature, also. But that doorway is some distance from the half-turret is standing on too. * Last edited by rogue49; 08-26-2003 at 06:58 PM..

GoldenOuroboros The Cheshire Grin... Location: An Aussie Outback	"..A Wyvern" Darghon looks again.. "Yep definetly a Wyvern" Noticing his friends out in the open.. Darghon realises he's got to do something. Darghon extends his wings... "No.. not yet.. Shall wait and see what happens.." The invisible Darghon, telekinetically and slowly, moves up to were his friend Vinoh is.. "Vinoh it's me.. I'm ready to take flight if anything happens.. Might have to play a game of Cat and Mouse.." "I don't know much about the Wyvern, but I do know that they aren't as smart as my Kin, well some of.." Darghon keeps watching the Wyvern "They're not to respected in the dragon realm.. hrmm.. I might try contacting it" "But before I do are you able to get some sort of reading off it?" __________________ Can you see me grin grin grrriiiiinnnning?!

Minx Junkie Location: Up yonder	" Well there's your answer Attrah. Down quickly before it sees us..." D'Aleen whispers to the others as she crouches down against the small edge of the walkway. Aiming her bow at the beast she is reluctant to attack it until they can determine what it will do. Still...they are practically sitting prey if it decides to attack. Sensing nothing from the creature she glances at the others. "Let it make the first move shall we...if it leaves we can go back the way we came and meet up with the others. If not...well let's hope we get some airborne help from Vinoh & Darghon." __________________ You've been a naughty boy....go to my room!

Bob Biter Non-smokers die everyday Location: Montreal	Vinoh turns to where he thinks his friend is... "Hmm... I'm trying, my friend, but it's harder than usual, for some reason. Can you see the others? Are they about to attack this thing? If so, then I fear a concerted effort might be our only chance at beating this... Wyvern." Then, closing his eyes, Vinoh sends a psychic message to his companions below: "My friends, it seems I can't get a straight reading of this thing's emotions, so therefore I don't know its intentions or even if it spotted us. Should we decide to attack, I suggest a massive first strike from you guys using ranged weapons. Hopefully, this would disorient and surprise it long enough so that Darghon and I can get our licks in from behind, after which we can continue our attacks from opposite sides until this creature is either subdued or flees. What do you think?" __________________ A plan is just a list of things that don't happen.

redravin40 Loser Location: With Jadzia	Father Quadrial, knowing full well when he is hopelessly outclassed, ducks down as low as he can and trys to keep track of the rest of the party. Reaching into his robes he pulls out a small flask. The medallion around his neck is muttering in a soto voice, "If you die, I'll never forgive you."
