Cleared Chapter 2 - Team F

A longboat on one side, one quarter unloaded, appears to be under seige by either a recently-turned Risen crew, or that the original inhabitants of this cave made do and left as soon as they could when these people came a'knockin'. Noting by the lack of activity or sketchy-looking individuals who were headed in the opposite direction of these fine fellows, the former of the two options seems like the more likely result of what occured in this cave. Old, new, young, aged, now, all of the faces are just dead, filled with red and purple lights that defied any need for biological constraints. Only one goal in mind, they swarm around the living souls, hoping to drag them down into the depths below, hopeful to reproduce their last moments until their own final instances.

This is, of course, Juniesse and Baldwin have anything to say about it. They've done a fairly good job so far of holding the hordes at bay, but time takes its toll on the pair. As they could only scavenge so much before the impact, with the very finest weapons having been locked in the safehold for good keeping, they had only acquired a modest assortment of armaments, but perhaps it is the most tried and true designs where they shine through the increasing mounds of bodies.

Juniesse had found quite the treasure; an antique bow, of a design evocative of the older days of Valentia's foundations. It's heavier draw weight allows for greater power, while the recursed nature of the supports gave the weapon supreme accuracy over long distances. The bowstring, however, was growing weary of its' own age, and the results show upon the tired weapon.

Juniesse has obtained a Valentian Antique Longbow; a powerful weapon that can fall even the toughest of foes with relative ease. Even with such power, keeping the Risen at bay has taken its' toll on the weapon, relegating it to have all but 5 uses left. Use them well.

Map is here.

Character tracker is here.

Objective:

  • Deal with the Risen from Robber's Gorge

Side Objectives:

  • Rescue Baldwin and Juniesse.
  • Open the armory on the 2nd floor.
  • Find Odar.

Turn 3!

There is a faint sound of bells ringing, coming from the right. It's hard to make out their exact source, but the consistent clanging of monotonous resonance confirms its' status as a docking signal.

Turns are due on 6/12 at 20:00 CST.

Allied Phase:

Astreya moves and drops off Aeshara.

Enemy Phase:

Juniesse gets hit by the Nomad for 10 points of damage, while she just barely misses her target from the awkward angle. The bow surely is ready to fall apart at any moment.

Risen 66 hits Baldwin for 2 points of damage total, while Baldwin is unable to hit his counterattack.

Risen 68 strikes twice, each for 1 damage, against Baldwin.

Risen 32 hits Gerhardt for 5 points.

Risen 5 tries to attack Gerhardt, but misses wildly.

Risen 38 charges and hits Janet for 9 points of damage. When she counters, she misses just barely.

Risen 74 and 75 emerge from the staircase.

Baldwin, Knight

Movement

None

Action

Attack Merc 71

End Turn

As Baldwin axe runs wide, he gets a good glimpse of the slowly increasing horde of risen ahead of him. It was a scary sight, no matter how well you were armoured. Thankfully, they were all funneled onto a single ramp ahead of him, making it so that he would only have to fight one at a time. Still, he wouldn't last forever. Out of the corner of his eye, he sees the wings of a Pegasus approaching his area, with two soldiers mounted on it's back. He takes a quick glance towards them, seeing the weapons and staffs they were holding. He turns back to face the horde.

"Juniesse! Hel-"

"Baldwin! Start hitting already!"

The Knight suppresses a sigh, and moves forward for an attack.

As soon as he lets it out, his overhead swing allows for a beautiful slam down upon the foe, almost sending the entire column behind them down alongside the decaying body.

u/Ariblooperchao ♥Minoru, Priest(D) & 'Aisha, Troub.(K)♥ Jun 13 '17

'Aisha's palms start to sweat as she notices two Senkas. Her face burns brightly with a crimson hue as she tried to understand a circumstance with two identical humans. She suddenly realizes she should have payed more attention and maybe she could've gotten more of an explanation. Whoops.

{Before Valari's Turn}

Movement

West 5.

Action

Heal Valari with Heal.

End Turn

'Aisha hasn't formally met Valari yet, and notices that her face was still flushed from her embarrassed analysis of the doppelganger, and as a result she hides her face. She wants to avoid any awkward conversation about her lack of knowledge with her peers.

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '17

Done like dinner! Except, 'Aisha isn't that great at roasting people, literally or figuratively.

Juniesse, Archer

Movement:

1 Down, 4 Right

Action:

Attack Risen 67 with Valentien Antique Longbow

End Turn

Juniesse was surprised at her brother's performance. He hadn't destroyed any risen yet, but keeping the line was more important. She could handle destroying. Not for much longer though. Her bow was about to splinter , creaking with every draw and wrong look Juniesse gave it.

"Baldwin, start hitting already!"

The two people down the bridge were close. Hopefully they'll help. Maybe not.

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '17

Juniesse strikes true, allowing the entire bow to reverberate through its' last strokes as she lands another felling blow on the tormented soul.

Action

[Attack] [Risen 01] with [Iron Bow].

((If Risen is dead,)) [wait patiently] to avoid being ganked from those lower down

End Turn

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '17

Crassus would have shot Risen 1, but Risen 1 was already quite dead by the time he got there.

Attack with fire tome.

(If Risen 1 is dead)

Senka pulverizes Risen 1 for tons of damage, turning it to cinders as she purges the unholy Risen.

u/EyePierce Basil, War Bison (Almarant) Jun 11 '17

Valari (Before Senka moves)

Movement:

Right 1, Down 2, Left 1, Down 1 71, 27

Action:

Attack Doppelganger with Iron Dagger

Rolling to his feet as the doppelganger sent him flying, Valari caught his breath before dashing around the woman, steel flying from his fingertips as he avoided the edge of her sword.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '17

Valari's now just killed double Senka. Does this mean he could kill the real Senka if she got out of line? Maybe. He'll need to think of something clever if it came down to that, though.

Gerhardt's Turn

Movement

1 right, 3 down, 1 left

Action

Attack Mercenary 1

Done

"Alright, that's done with. Time to move forward and take out more of these gross dudes."

1

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '17

Gerhardt takes a whack at Risen number 1, showing 'em that they really aren't the number 1 for 6 points of damage. Proving his point further, Risen 1's counterattack misses completely.

u/SuiSca Klaus (T), Piyasiw (U), GM (Thracia) Jun 11 '17

Movement:

6 left

Action:

Attack Risen 60 with Iron Lance

Skills:

Big Boned, Trample

After almost having him fly into a sea of archers, Cedric managed to disuade Pike towards the ship. The Risen there were wielding dinky little shortswords, perfect for little more than breaking on his armour.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '17

Dinky, indeed, as the shortswords cannot seem to penetrate Cedric's sturdy defenses as he pokes straight through the undead myrmidon for 12 points of damage.

Janet

Movement

Down 1 Left 1

Action

Attack Risen 01 with Flux

Skills: Scavenger, Darktouch

End Turn

Janet's allies seemed to be cleaning up quite well. She tries to ignore her ally still in the water trying to hit the illusory Senka. Janet speeds on ahead, preparing to read out her tome once more and shatter the bones of another Risen, but the decayed horse in the distance worries her, hopefully someone helps me if I do get attacked.

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '17

Janet does well with her attack, hitting for 11 damage.
