Act 1: Autopsy
22:17:37 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Aah, there you all are.
22:18:50 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: Why are we to meet here? The duskrunners don’t seem to enjoy Blightclaw and Duskfang.
22:20:28 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord looks at Redmane, waiting for an answer to Linetabe’s question.
22:20:33 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: They are still strangers to most our people, it is understandable they will be taking particular interest until they have become familiar.
22:21:45 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: As for us, do you recall the attack on Brightwood village last week? Blightclaw and Stirba have been examining the body of the worgeness.
22:22:22 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: I recall that, all I remember though is a lot of blood, Rosewood blasting himself into a portal…
22:24:13 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord 's eyes widen at this new information, and she tries to follow along, “I hadn’t heard, no…” she says.
22:26:13 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Lets go meet them, I’ll explain more on the way. But it would appear that attack… was but one of many. Things have been getting worse.
22:26:26 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: Worse in what way…
22:26:35 Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord ears lower.
22:26:49 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Well, there have been some other attacks as well. In unpredictable locations, well behind the Nightbane’s defenses.
22:27:00 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord 's ears pin back, “What in Goldrinn’s name… more of this void garbage?”
22:27:06 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: If its well behind, then a traitor in the midst?
22:27:17 You sniff Tyffani.
22:27:31 You growl menacingly.
22:28:05 Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord seemed a bit nervous given what she told Redmane of her nightmare.
22:28:06 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord growls low in agreement. “That would be the reasonable assumption.”
22:28:28 You sniff the air around you.
22:28:46 Kinmara-WyrmrestAccord looked around slowly as she sniffed at the air.
22:28:47 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Blightclaw, Stirba?
22:28:55 [Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord]: Up here!
22:29:07 Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord cradles a bundle of cloth in her arms, holding it just far enough away from herself that it isn’t against her chest.
22:29:22 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord enters the Shadowweaver house, looking around with interest. The house was of human make, from long past, used much as if it were a simple cave.
22:29:44 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: I’ll keep watch.
22:29:54 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Within earshot.
22:29:58 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: Always.
22:30:01 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord braces herself for what she will see in the next room.
22:30:33 Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord can see a bit into the room, and while she had seen mutilated animal bodies, worgen and human ones were unfamiliar.
22:30:36 Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord almost gags.
22:30:53 Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord 's ears flick at the s****e of claws upon the rotting wood floorboards. She doesnt bother to look up from whatever she in leaning over on the table.
22:32:37 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord enters the room without hesitation, leading the way, though the tilt of his ears and the wrinkle of his nose make it clear he finds no pleasure in it. Especially at the presence of the one week old body, or bodies, within. “Gooddusk ladies.”
22:32:37 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord he grunts in greeting. “What have you found.”
22:33:42 Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord waits for Stirba to speak first.
22:34:45 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord covers her mouth as she enters, wrinkling her nose at the stench and repressing the urge to gag.
22:34:59 Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord looks up as the pack enter. She nods to those assembled, looking to the alpha as she replies. “Many oddities with this female…” She holds out a portion of femure for the alpha to take. “Look…the marrow is black.”
22:35:25 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord uncovers her mouth, and leans over to look at the marrow being talked about.
22:37:30 Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord then gestures to the two piles of viscera in front of her. “This is the heart, split into two down its center. See how the walls of the chambers are darkened? That is not rot…and here,” She holds up a pitiful pile of gray matter. "A section of brain.
22:37:30 Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord Look, the darkness traces an unusual pattern in the folds, working outwards…" She trails off, staring hard at the organ.
22:39:22 Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord twitched an ear to listen. The female very well could have been her if she hadn’t gotten the alpha’s recommendation…
22:40:18 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord frowns as he listens, but refuses to cover his nose, attempting to watch listen and smell everything and all the information they had to offer, including the aura that permeated through the room. Though he does look at the woman with slight concern as he
22:40:18 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord beholds handfulls of brains in the woman’s grasp.
22:41:09 Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord notes Raedolf’s discomfort and offers a smile that is arguably more like a grimace. “This is the joy of an autopsy without preservation magics.”
22:41:14 Kinmara-WyrmrestAccord watches silently but keeps her ears alert for anything
22:42:07 Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord can’t bring herself to go further into the room without vomiting.
22:42:12 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: (*autopsy performed)
22:42:20 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord grimaces, “And that is why I need to create a new way for you all to contact me… I could have time frozen… her… for you…” she crosses her arms, "I’d not be so eager to sniff and breath in the room… While our noses do give valuable information, >>
22:42:59 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord gives a hum and a nod in agreement. “At least we have the comfort of knowing the body has not been meddled with by magics. Other than… whatever this is.”
22:42:59 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord we probably shouldn’t be breathing in the potentially… contageous void particles."
22:43:21 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: “Freezing the samples now might stifle the smell, if you’d like to try it.”
22:43:41 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord looks to Tyffani, “That… is a good point. We should crack a window.”
22:43:51 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord looks at Redmane, “Permission to perform some time magic on the corpse?”
22:43:58 Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord s****s a portion of the blackness from the heart with a deft claw, rubbing it between her thumb and forefinger. “This…this is not decay. Not the sort we are used to, this female was being changed by something powerful…”
22:44:01 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: Fortunate it didn’t rain on the way here, or we would have to take this outside.
22:44:02 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: No, we will adjust. Continue, have you found anything else?
22:44:12 Hatespeaker looks at Wisterîa.
22:44:22 Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord raises an eyebrow. “My turn?”
22:44:32 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord attempts to ‘crack’ a window.
22:44:43 Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord lifts her snout, eager to hear Blightclaw’s findings.
22:45:06 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord attempts to remove the boards from the window and force it open with magic.
22:45:34 Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord crouched, watching the stairs carefully. This talk of being changed worried her on a deep level, the warden keeping her eyes and ears open for any intruders in the house.
22:46:06 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord 's magic manages to lift the boards from the window neatly and force the window open with out too much noise.
22:46:13 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord just kind of walloped the window, sending some bits of the wooden boarding flying and hopefully not hitting anybody outside.
22:46:46 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord looks at Raedolf and shakes her head, “Not like we needed to be quiet or anything!”
22:48:04 Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord nods, placing the bundle of cloth on the table and unwrapping it to reveal its contents. In it lies a fetus, obviously not fully formed but severely mutated. Its skin is tough and black, maw gaping to reveal rows of sharpened teeth. It doesn’t appear to
22:48:04 Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord have eyes. It has 3 toes and fingers on each appendage, which are connected together via webbing.
22:48:11 Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord looks like she is going to throw up.
22:48:49 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: “The child which our portal keeper was carrying before Corvus’ magic obliterated her.”
22:49:10 Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord 's eyes widen, and she leans closer to inspect the mouth of the beast.
22:49:23 [Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord]: Was this the only one in her womb?
22:49:28 Wisterîa nods at Hatespeaker.
22:49:40 Kinmara-WyrmrestAccord watched quietly raising a brow.
22:51:46 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord is concerned.
22:52:14 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord 's ears pin back, “Poor thing…”
22:52:17 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord audibly swallows, and clears his throat before looking to Wisteria. “The infant?” he assumems.
22:52:25 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord assumes*)
22:52:32 Wisterîa nods at you.
22:53:36 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: “Would have been born soon, but it seems… monstrous, to say the least.”
22:54:04 Kinmara-WyrmrestAccord growled softly.
22:54:36 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: “It is safe to guess that the corruption that was eating her from the inside out also managed to get to her child. Either that, or this child was the source.”
22:54:39 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord gives a hum in agreement as he stares at the devilchild. “Corrupt.” he agrees.
22:54:59 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: Possible the child was consuming her from the inside…
22:55:03 Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord rushed to a window, slamming her head through the boards and glass to retch onto the grass outside.
22:55:14 Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord reaches out, tapping her claw against one of the teeth. “Teeth like this forming in the womb…I wonder what the Sire looked like…”
22:55:27 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord raises an eyebrow and looks to her with great interest and concern at the bizzar thought.
22:55:43 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord shivers slightly at the thought, "I dont think I want to know…
22:56:14 Kinmara-WyrmrestAccord shuddered a bit at the thought.
22:56:20 Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord just sat on the balcony, looking a bit queasy and relying on her sense of hearing. Her claws ground on the wood a bit, hands shaking a bit.
22:58:28 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: It’s clearly of the void. We should probably destroy it’s remains… and it’s mother’s as well, to be safe.
22:58:43 Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord suppresses a shiver. “I believe, in the heat of Corvus’ spell, both the mother and the child’s flesh was charred.” She pauses, gesturing weakly at the baby’s massive, empty eyesockets. “It was already like…this, when I removed it from the womb.”
22:58:54 Wisterîa nods at Tyffani.
22:58:55 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: At least… that’s the assumption I come to… given what is happening everywhere else.
22:59:36 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: What was the magics he used? I could understand external damage, but internal?
22:59:41 Kinmara-WyrmrestAccord sniffed and glanced down.
23:00:04 Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord seemed physically sick but she stood up and back to her watch job.
23:00:07 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: Heat? sounds like fire? Fire wouldn’t do this.
23:00:42 Kinmara-WyrmrestAccord glanced back into the room watching quietly.
23:01:14 Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord shrugs, looking somber. “The child definitely looks burned, at least given the texture and color of its skin. I’ve never seen anything like it, though.”
23:01:53 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: And the aspirant Rosewood is still missing… we have had no sign of him, and the Shadowweavers do not claim to recognize the woman here.
23:01:57 Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord wraps the baby up in the cloth again to hide it from view.
23:01:59 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: Did he manage to open up her womb and hit the child directly?
23:02:10 Wisterîa tells Tyffani NO. Not going to happen.
23:02:35 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: No, but his spell was the killing blow. I believe… because it was her death that closed the portal behind him.
23:03:40 Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord observes things through half-closed eyes as Blightclaw bundles up the carcass. She stares into nothingness pensievely.
23:04:30 [Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord]: I believe many of our questions will be answered if we can find out where this female came from.
23:04:41 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord nods in agreement.
23:04:55 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: “If we find Rosewood, he could lead us to them…”
23:05:12 Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord wrinkled her nose, back to the window she smashed out to hurl some more. The stench of rot and the void was just a bit much for the warden.
23:05:24 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: That is, -if- we can find him.
23:05:56 Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord nods, looking pensieve.
23:06:19 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: “Does anyone know tracking magic?”
23:10:12 Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord stares at the blackened corpse with an inscrutible look.
23:11:20 Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord immediately leapt off the edge, halberd in hand and her mane flared. It even sparked with electrical current…
23:12:25 Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord looks up quickly as Stormclaw departs from the window, briefly hearing a sound from outside signalling trouble.
23:12:55 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: Whot the fel?
23:13:15 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord 's ears stood up straight, eyes wide as he snapped his head to stare out the window he had since punched a hole in. “That may be another-” he grunts quickly, then throwing his hand in the air towards the pack standing in the doorway. "Out,
23:13:15 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord out!" he barks in urgency.
23:13:32 Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord hurries out of the way.
23:14:02 Albeldon-WyrmrestAccord howls into the air before nearing the cabin’
23:14:37 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord attempts to peer around Linetabe in the doorway, her hands already on fire, and her teeth bared.
23:17:01 Kinmara-WyrmrestAccord narrowed her eyes as her fur stood up. She glanced around and quickly drops into her cat form.
23:17:10 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord ran into a spiderweb, can’t see ****.
23:17:59 Albeldon-WyrmrestAccord exits the shadows near Stirba
23:18:07 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord makes her way outside.
23:19:28 Albeldon-WyrmrestAccord speaks in a growly cat voice “Can’t leave you lot alone for 2 minutes”
23:19:58 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord sneezes at Albedon.
23:20:07 Albeldon sneezes on you. Achoo!
23:20:12 Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord starts slightly at the appearance and voice of Cooper, and she bares her teeth at him. “Sneaky feline…”
23:20:28 [Albeldon-WyrmrestAccord]: “Guilty”
23:20:33 Kinmara-WyrmrestAccord snickered softly “Good to have you back”
23:21:08 Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord 's dart around the wooded orchard, looking for signs of trouble and the origin of the howls.
23:22:27 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: ****ing ogres…
23:22:59 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord growls to himself at the mention of ogres, and at spider webs, and at cats. God damn it this was not a good start.
23:23:09 [Albeldon-WyrmrestAccord]: “Kill 'em all… let the gods sort them out.”
23:23:17 Hatespeaker looks at Albeldon.
23:23:20 Hatespeaker loves Albeldon.
23:23:23 Hatespeaker cheers at Albeldon!
23:23:32 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord snarls loudly, “Sounds like we need to teach the damn ogres a lesson again.”
23:23:39 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Quickly now! Find that portal, before they start killing!
23:23:41 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: “The gods won’t touch them. Filthy…”
23:23:45 Wisterîa nods at you.
23:23:47 Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord growls lowly, and barks her agreement.
23:23:59 Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord begins looking around for the portal, unable to see it himself.
23:24:05 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: I’ll hold the ogres off, find the portal.
23:24:41 Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord quickly looks between the trees, searching for an inky portal or its master.
23:24:42 Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord began walking south, dragging her halberd on the ground. She was going to brutally murder a few things…
23:26:09 Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord is gonna jump through. Peer pressure really IS a ****.
23:26:14 Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord swallows hastily, finding herself drawn to the south as well. She closes her eyes tightly and shakes her head in an effort to focus.
23:27:59 Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord follows the Den-Warden, hoping to sight the portal soon.
23:29:20 Kinmara-WyrmrestAccord grunted and looked at Wis “Go through there?..”
23:29:38 Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord lifts her ear at Blightclaw’s suggestion. “Yes…perhaps we should.” She mumbles in agreement, dispite the fact Corvus was still missing…
23:32:02 Kinmara-WyrmrestAccord narrowed her eyes “Well…make the choice…and quick…” She growled and lept towards the ogre at {moon} quickly running behind it with her speed and attempted to leap up onto its back clawing viciously.
23:33:01 Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord 's viciousness seems to fade away, and she steps forward to the portal. “I will go and see where it leads…”
23:33:23 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Not until we know where its coming from! There could be no coming back!
23:33:23 [Albeldon-WyrmrestAccord]: “Not alone…”
23:33:29 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: Stirba, Wait!
23:34:05 Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord nods. “We should go in groups, Stirba! Otherwise we’d lose contact, like we did with Rosewood!”
23:34:19 Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord doesn’t say anything, she’s hyperfocused on the enemies in front of her.
23:36:44 Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord charges up a fireball, and hurls it at Ogre1, snarling as she does.
23:37:00 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: Mystics, shut down that portal or find the keeper!
23:37:10 Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord 's senses seem to be working overdrive as she attempts to find a portal keeper.
23:38:11 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: I thought we’d go through the portal once the ogre is dispatched! Don’t we have a pack member on the other side? I know I cant create a portal that goes into the void…
23:38:39 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: “They can’t take all of us.”
23:39:25 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: If you are suicidal, go. I’ve a territory to protect to make sure you have a home.
23:39:52 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: There has
23:40:11 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: to be a way to get them out of that portal before we close it
23:40:15 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Tyffani! If we do go: how long would it take to port us to safety if neebe?
23:40:44 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: I’d need only a moment of uninterupted casting to make us a portal home!
23:41:19 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: ((basically defend her so she can cast the portal, like you do a quest npc :p))
23:43:31 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Fine! Linetabe and Kinma stay here, somebody go in before Tyffani and the rest follow. We will jump in and portal back as soon as possible.
Act 2: Another Portal
Logging started on 01/21/2020 at 22:08:28.
23:10:50 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Even as there were things to learn inside, something was amiss outside. The tingle down your mane would be the first warning (18+), then the shift in the air pressure, (14+), and finally the surprised howl of alarm from somewhere quite nearby (6+)
23:15:10 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: (IF you are near Linet, you can see sparks flash in her mane.
23:16:33 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Roll for Perception again)
23:16:38 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: Wisterîa rolls 8 (D10+5)

23:21:23 [Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord]: *eyes dart)
23:22:16 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: The howl came from not right outside the door, but quite nearby. The ghastly aura in the air could be sensed coming from the south (6+), and the howl would be identified as from one of the more frequent shadoweavers - Craven the Thin - to
23:22:16 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: those familiar with him (10+). Some could already hear the sounds of ogres and the destruction they brought (14+).
23:24:01 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: anyone have a potion of inky
23:24:07 [Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord]: i gotchu

23:26:44 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: She broke into an almost feral howl, blasting through the trees and ripping through her fellow Nightbane to try and impale an ogre. Just follow the sound of roars and dying ogres!
23:26:59 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: Linetabe rolls 10 (D10+8)
23:27:05 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: (RIP. 13 melee attack.
23:28:36 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: Wisteria hesitates. “We should go through the portal…” She offers, though she -does- sound uneasy. “We can always find our way back from wherever it leads, but without it we may not be able to find the source.”
23:30:24 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Success, Line hit Ogre1 {Circle} for 2 damage, 4/6hp. Kinma’s turn.)
23:32:07 [Kinmara-WyrmrestAccord]: Kinmara rolls 14 (D10+7)
23:34:23 [Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord]: lol oops, will wait for my turn, pardon.

23:34:56 [Kinmara-WyrmrestAccord]: ohhh ok just have me attack one of the ogre’s))
23:36:33 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Kin hits Ogre1 {Circle} for two damage, to 2/6hp. So far, only the Portal {Diamond} the Ogre {Circle} and Craven the Shadowweaver {Moon} could be seen, with no portalkeeper in sight. Tyffani’s turn.)
23:36:48 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: Tyffani rolls 14 (D10+10)
23:39:23 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Success, Tyff hits Ogre1 {Circle} for 2 damage, to 0/6hp. Now only Craven and the Portal are left standing, though there is movement on the other side of the portal. Albedon’s turn.)

23:46:04 [Albeldon-WyrmrestAccord]: (See it?)
23:46:12 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (No, do in Raid )
23:46:27 [Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord]: dO iN rAiD
23:46:38 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: Craven is a fellow worgen…
23:46:48 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: He’s the nightbane shadow weaver we just saved.
23:46:59 [Albeldon-WyrmrestAccord]: _Cooper charges Craven, teeth bared-
23:47:13 [Albeldon-WyrmrestAccord]: claws out**
23:47:31 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: yeah I didnt mean to flame on))
23:47:37 [Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord]: :o
23:47:43 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: ((oops))
23:49:27 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Success, Albe hits Craven {Moon} for one damage. The portal is unphased, and Craven howls as he tries to avoid the attack cat. Craven to 1/2hp. Hatespeaker’s turn.)
23:51:36 [Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord]: Hatespeaker rolls 14 (D20)
23:52:00 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Roll Will Save to avoid being Fearerd by the void. )
23:52:17 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: Tyffani rolls 5 (D10+3)
23:52:27 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: just Stirba)
23:52:27 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: (All of us?)
23:52:31 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: just Stirba)
23:52:46 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: ((when ya dont specifyyyyy))
23:52:56 [Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord]: Hatespeaker rolls 7 (D10+5)
23:54:35 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Are you having trouble using the ability wheel?)
23:56:00 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Success, Stirba steps to the portal and fades from existence. At least, appears to. Wist’s turn. )
23:57:45 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: Wisteria hesitates, every instinct screaming for her to follow her packmate into the portal, but instead she clamps her hands together and pulls them apart slowly. The edges of the portal flinch at her attempts to hold it open for the others.
23:57:49 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: Wisterîa rolls 15 (D10+7)
23:59:02 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Success, Wist holds the portal open, despite the counter will of its unseen owner somewhere nearby. Lup’s turn.)
00:01:05 [Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord]: Lupyns growls at the howl of the enemy, responding with her own of anger, moving close and raking her claws down across the target.
00:01:13 [Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord]: Lupyns rolls 7 (D10+5)
00:02:30 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: lupa what are you attacking? you didn’t mention in your emote)
00:02:58 [Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord]: oh hecc, sorry
00:03:00 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: (Lup’s attacking Craven the Thin, ya know the innocent worgen.
00:03:26 [Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord]: the moon one, i don’t know how to add it into chat
00:03:41 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: saying (moon) would be fine )
00:03:49 [Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord]: oh
00:03:51 [Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord]: ^ ^’
00:03:56 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: xD )
00:05:24 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Success, Lupa attacks Carven for one damage, Carven at 0hp and bleeding to death. The portal is completely unphased, meaning he must not have been the portalkeeper. Oops. Aldsig’s turn.)
00:05:40 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: *Craven)
00:11:01 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Success, Aldsig is unafeared as he stares into the void itself, and the movements beyond. Whether he steps in or not is up to him.)
00:11:07 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Rae’s turn )
00:13:33 [Aldsig-WyrmrestAccord]: The druid leaped into the portal, fading from view.
00:14:16 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Raedolf growls to himself. Both a single and a million thoughts run through his mind. The single face of Brier’s if the sacrifice is made, and the thousands of howls of his people if it isn’t. “Tyffani!” he howls for her, to follow, as he runs
00:14:16 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: to the portal after all.
00:14:24 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Raedolf rolls 14! (D10+4)
00:16:05 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: The alpha had been at the back of the line, and charged for the portal after the other martyrs, howling the mage’s name, then howling his resolve as he gave it his all, completely unphased by the magical portal of pure darkness.
00:17:20 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Success, Crit hit on Will Save, Inspired buff +3 applied to pack’s next will saves. Corv’s turn. If he wants to do something I guess O.o )
00:17:20 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Success, Crit hit on Will Save, Inspired buff +3 applied to pack’s next will saves. Corv’s turn. If he wants to do something I guess O.o )
00:18:08 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: The edges of the portal flicker as Wisteria’s attention is drawn momentarily to Kinmara. She grunts and refocuses on holding it open.
00:18:36 [Còrvus-WyrmrestAccord]: I mean. Have yall arrived yet? Or can I just make spooky noises from the other side of the portal? “WooooOOOoOoooOo. Return the slab, or suffer my curse!”))
00:20:03 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: I would assume I need to wait til my turn to actually follow lol))
00:20:12 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: yeah)
00:22:26 [Còrvus-WyrmrestAccord]: Upon the pack members leaping through the portal one by one, they would notice a rather familiar Worgen hyperventilating against a back wall of a cave, safely hidden from view. Unable to form coherent thoughts after days spent hiding, fighting, and »
00:22:26 [Còrvus-WyrmrestAccord]: » running in the cave system, he collapses with exhaustion, scratching out in a defeated voice to those that come through the portal,“Breeding. Dozens. Portals. Lycanthoth, RUN!” With these cryptic words delivered, and apparently hoping he’d warned »
00:22:26 [Còrvus-WyrmrestAccord]: » them to run, he loses consciousness completely.
00:24:42 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: Okies, whose turn Rae?
00:24:48 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: composing)
00:25:02 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: (Decomposing composers?)
00:29:55 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Defense round!) In the rotting Orchard, just after Raedolf disappears within the portal, the dark rift shimmers with movement once more. A sort of whispering and chanting could be heard from the portal’s true master from somewhere nearby,
00:29:55 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: beckoning forth yet another ogre from the portal’s depths, roaring and swinging its club at the first enemy it sees, Albedon and Kinma (Roll 10+ defense). Meanwhile on the other side of the portal, those that went through found
00:29:55 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: themselves likewise attacked by an even larger ogre. (Aldsig and Hatespeaker roll 10+ defense)
00:30:24 [Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord]: Hatespeaker rolls 6 (D10+3)
00:30:24 [Kinmara-WyrmrestAccord]: Kinmara rolls 4 (D10+2)
00:30:52 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: May I roll a perception to spot the portal keeper if it is chanting?
00:31:04 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: in your attack round yes )
00:31:06 [Albeldon-WyrmrestAccord]: Albeldon rolls 4! (D10+3)
00:31:28 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: (My attack round planned is this: Heal and protecc Craven while calling out the portal keeper.
00:32:03 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (To go through the portal, use your attack turn to roll Will Save 7+, and come to me if you succeed.)
00:40:08 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: In Deadwind, Hatespeaker is hit for two damage to 3/5hp but Aldsig avoids. In Duskwood, Kinma and Albedon both fail, taking two damage each to 3/5hp.)
00:40:41 [Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord]: ORLY
00:42:39 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Attack Round! We’ll do Duskwood people first then Deadwind people. In Duskwood there is Line Kin Tyff Albe Wist Lup and Eillith verses Ogre2 {Square} and Witch {X}. In Deadwind there is Hate Rae Ald versus Ogre3 {Skull}. )
00:43:17 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Linetabe’s turn first. Emote in raid including your attempt and your target, roll, and emote the outcome)
00:43:21 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: She leapt into action, not to attack the ogre but ripping off her cloak to begin binding the injuries of Craven the shadow weaver. She then began to look around like a madwoman to find that portal keeper. There’s always a keeper with these ogre-portals.
00:43:35 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: (Combination Heal to stabilize Craven and perception to find the witch.
00:44:21 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: Linetabe rolls 14 (D10+7)
00:44:34 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: Linetabe rolls 10 (D10+7)
00:44:44 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: (At least Craven’ll survive now.
00:45:10 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: As she bandages the injury, she bends over the fallen weaver to take any blows directed towards him on her back…
00:46:25 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Success, Linetabe heals Craven for one hp, stabilizing the shadowweaver and saving his life. Probably. Kin’s going to bed… to Tyffani’'s turn)
00:46:40 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: (No spotting of the witch?)
00:47:37 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Oh, didn’t see your second roll. Do you have an ability that lets you roll twice you’re using? If not then yeah only one action per turn, you get to do one or the other)
00:48:01 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: (Okay. Higher priority to keep Craven alive.)
00:53:38 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: Wist glances around at all of the people passing out and the portal wavers slightly.
00:56:07 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: Tyffani rolls 6 (D10+3)
00:57:48 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: Tyff runs at the portal, steeling herself as she attempts to jump through…
00:57:54 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: ((sorry forgot to emote in raid))
00:58:08 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Fail, the rift of pure darkness is too much for Tyffani to bear. Images flash in her mind of her pack slaughtered as if through a meat grinder just as they had jumped through, spelling literal doom to anyone that would try.)
00:58:24 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: (She didn’t add the +3 will from you with that nat 10, Rae.
00:58:30 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Oh!)
00:58:42 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: completely forgot my fabulous roll flips hair
00:58:51 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: ((I did too))
00:59:01 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (But that doesn’t matter to Tyffani because Raedolf’s so awesome!)
00:59:01 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: ((so success then))
00:59:11 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: (I kind of remember these small boosts.)
00:59:53 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Wist’s turn. Tyffani emote your success and fly over here to help us out. Wist’s turn)
01:00:15 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: (I gotta jet. Linet’s going to carry Craven to safety and keep him alive.
01:00:23 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Alright thanks)
01:00:35 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (We’ll finish this up soon and I’ll post in discord)
01:00:44 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: Tyffani gets through the portal, and rolls as she comes through, looking around wildly as she arrives.
01:01:02 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: Seeing that Tyff made it through safely, Wisteria releases her grip on the portal’s edges and glances around, struggling to find the location of the witch.
01:01:03 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: Wisterîa rolls 11 (D10+5)
01:01:18 [Linetabe-WyrmrestAccord]: (See y’all tomorrow!
01:01:22 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: bye!!
01:02:46 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Success, Wist can see the Witch {X} standing on top of the nearby barn, her hands full of her dark magicks and her mouth busied with whispers. The location may be revealed to the rest of the pack by Wist’s reaction.
01:02:46 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Wist’s emote then Lup’s turn.)
01:04:14 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: A hiss builds in her throat as she whips around to face the portal keeper. She attempts to cast a spell, but with her arms weak from holding open the portal, she fails, and resorts to pointing at her, calling out her location.
01:05:46 [Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord]: Lupyns whips her head around, seeing Wist point upwards and follows her clawed finger to see the Witch.
01:06:51 [Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord]: Lupyns then attempts to do the next logical thing. Which is climb the barn.
01:06:57 [Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord]: (roll athletics?)
01:07:05 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (yup! )
01:07:17 [Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord]: Lupyns rolls 13 (D10+6)
01:07:57 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: (test)
01:08:08 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (tested)
01:08:58 [Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord]: In a final stride, she scales the barn and slashes at the witch with her claws.
01:10:42 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: Wist takes only a moment to glance back at Cyrienna, nodding to her friend before returning her attention to trying to regain feeling in her arms.
01:13:18 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (The witch {X} continues to cast her magics, no doubt empowering the summoned ogre or summoning more of the same. “The true alpha will rise again!” she whispers for all to hear, then yelping as she is struck in the back by Lupa’s claws, to
01:13:18 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: 1/2hp. The portal wavers. Meanwhile, in the cave on the other side of the portal, those that passed through would find Corvus near death on the floor and a giant****ogre attacking those that had gone through, that no doubt would have been the next to
01:13:18 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: step through the portal. An unknown number of other ogres and worgeness witches could be heard in the cave’s depths. Hatespeaker’s turn.
01:20:16 [Aldsig-WyrmrestAccord]: Aldsig took his chance to head back towards the portal, running an ogre down as he made his way back towards the other side.
01:20:41 [Aldsig-WyrmrestAccord]: (Cutting down*)
01:21:19 [Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord]: Stirba staggers throught the portal, reeling from the mental onslaught as she emerges in a cave. The ogre stench is overwhelming, but she spots the form of Corvus on the dirt floor and stumbles over to him.
01:21:52 [Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord]: * will not attempt to attack anything, merely check on packmate*
01:24:40 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: A terrible, loud, rumbling voice can be heard as if a devil spoke through the halls of the cave. “You have made… yourr lasst misstake.” it says, the cave floor trembling slightly at each step, audible over the
01:24:40 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: scrambling noises of a legion of claws and the howling of worgen, all female. Stirba successfully drags Corvu through the portal to Duskwood. Raedolf’s turn.)
01:26:41 [Hatespeaker-WyrmrestAccord]: With her last reserve, Stirba manages to snatch the fallen packmate by his scruff and fall back through the portal, the oppressive blackness quickly choking her sanity. She passes out before reaching the other side…
01:27:57 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Raedolf’s eyes grow wide and his ears flat at the overwhelming presence approaching. By the sheer sound, and the size of the cave and its distant ceiling, one could only guess the size of the lupine devil that approached. “We have Corvus:” he
01:27:57 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: snarls, jerking back to look at Tyffani, then watching Stirba fall through the portal with the man. “We are unmatched. Go!” he barks to Tyffani.
01:28:55 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: Tyffani huffs in frustration but does as she is told and falls back through the portal, snarling at the denizens of the cave as she did.
Logging started on 01/22/2020 at 01:32:29.
01:39:09 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Raedolf watches as the last of the pack ducks back into the portal from where they had came, but stops for a moment to look over his shoulder, and turn to face the oncoming horde once more. Eyes narrow and claws flex as the thought occurs to
01:39:09 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: him, but for what? Golden eyes focus on the bend in the cave where the great devil and the host of worgen women at his disposal would appear, if he waited, hoping to catch any sight or sound or scent that may grant them any information useful
01:39:09 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: to the cause. Even the image of the supposed dark lord himself. Yet as the sound of claws grew closer, he growled, and finally ducked into the portal back to Duskwood. “Close it!” he barked as his feet found grass once again.
01:41:04 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: Wisterîa rolls 11 (D10+9)
01:41:14 [Cyrienna-WyrmrestAccord]: Cyrienna rolls 10 (D10+8)
01:41:18 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Defense round, everyone roll defense. Then Wist’s turn)
01:41:25 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Raedolf rolls 1! (D10)
01:41:40 [Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord]: Lupyns rolls 7 (D10+5)
01:41:55 [Cyrienna-WyrmrestAccord]: Cyrienna rolls 12 (D10+4)
01:42:35 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: Wisterîa rolls 6 (D10+4)
01:42:53 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Raedolf rolls 6 (D10)
01:43:22 [Tyffani-WyrmrestAccord]: Tyffani rolls 13! (D10+3)
01:43:47 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Wist’s turn, then Lupa, Cyri, Tyffani, Raedolf)
01:46:12 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: With a deep breath, and knowing the portal only has moments left open before Lup finishes off the witch, Wisteria nudges Cyri to assist her and throws her hands forward, hopefully incapacitating the ogre with [DiceMaster4:Wisterîa:3:Fear] so that the
01:46:12 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: druid can force him back to the cave he was sent from.
01:47:08 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: (Roll Spell Attack or Spellcraft)
01:47:19 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: Wisterîa rolls 19! (D10+9)
01:47:28 [Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord]: o.o
01:47:56 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: The ogre lays an egg and nopes back into the portal. Lup’s turn.)
01:49:07 [Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord]: Having already swiped at the witch once before, she assumed the same thing wouldn’t work twice. So instead, she lunges, her maw open wide, for the foe’s throat.
01:49:19 [Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord]: Lupyns rolls 10 (D10+5)
01:49:45 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Success, high ho the witch is dead. Cyri’s turn.)
01:54:22 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: With the witch’s throat gone, at the jaws of the nightbane pit fighter, the portal fades with the light in her eyes, and fades from existance as her body falls to the ground with a sickening crumpling.
01:55:05 [Wisterîa-WyrmrestAccord]: Wist winces at the sickening crunch as the witch’s body hits the dirt.
01:55:21 [Lupyns-WyrmrestAccord]: Lupyns walks towards the edge of the barn roof, and waves an arm. “It’s okay for me to come down now, right?” she asks, very nonchalantly.
01:55:43 [Cyrienna-WyrmrestAccord]: Cyri rushed over to the now closed portal, just in awe at the amount of unconscious people. “Uh, okay. Is anyone wounded?”
01:56:07 [Raedolf-WyrmrestAccord]: Raedolf is left standing not far from where the portal once was, surrounded by the injured and the unconscious of his pack, including the long lost Corvus. He himself had fallen to his knees, and, finally, puked into the grass.
01:57:35 [Cyrienna-WyrmrestAccord]: Cyri rose her hand in the air. Flowers popped out of the ground, growing in size until they eventually burst and the petals shot into the air, before dispersing into healing dust that fell upon the pack. It’d soothe everyones wounds, remove any »
01:57:35 [Cyrienna-WyrmrestAccord]: » lingering corruption and settle their stomachs - if applicable.
01:57:38 [Cyrienna-WyrmrestAccord]: Cyrienna rolls 7! (D10+6)
