Reclaiming Blingdenstone Blingdenstone, a city that was once the home of thousands of svirfneblin (deep gnomes) and the only safe refuge in the northern Underdark, is in ruins. Although a brave band of svirfneblin struggles to reclaim the city, the gnomes cannot do so without help. The power to aid them is in the hands of you brave adventurers. Whether lured by the promise of glory or driven by a desire to help, you and your companions have traveled far to lend aid to the svirfneblin of Blingdenstone. After drow attacked the city to enslave the deep gnomes, the survivors lived in exile for over a century. But some have returned to their home, and they’re embroiled in a battle to rid their caverns of monstrous inhabitants. Your guide is a svirfneblin explorer named Briddick, who is slender with slate-gray skin, a bald head, and wide, gray eyes. He leads the way through secret tunnels and a winding labyrinth. Finally, you reach the ruined city. Work to repair damage the drow dealt continues. The gnomes wear tattered armor and bloody bandages. They carry notched and broken weapons, suggesting that the fighting has been fierce and frequent. Feel free to interact a bit, but I want everyone to post their sheets, and once everyone has posted we can move on.

 Zarnov the Magnificent "Ha! Are we finally here? Is this the Blingstone?" Zarnov still felt dizzy from the labyrinth of passageways the svirfneblin had guided them through. There was no way in the hells he was getting out of here again without help. Actually, magic could probably do the trick. It always does the trick. The tiefling looked absurdly out of place among all these gnomes. Deep red skin and large red horns made him stand out instantly. He was dressed in a fine white robe, but that barely rated a glance next to the large, devilish holy symbol around his neck. It was an amulet the size of a buckler shield. Zarnov had assured you all he wears it ironically. People always whispered behind his back that he was probably an infernal cultist or some-such, so he started wearing a gigantic symbol of the devil god for laughs.

Quilian Nailos [Recruit Info] HP: 10 | AC: 15 | Arrows: 40 Quilian Nailos stuck close to the group as they roamed the tunnels of the Underdark, following their guide with nary a missed step. His thoughts had been on the glamorous city of Silverymoon, it's intense beauty left unexplored in his haste to find the expedition heading to Blingdenstone. From there he traded those visual splendors for these cave-like, endlessly gray tunnels. The promise at the end of this path was grand, however. An entire city underground. It almost seemed too fantastical to be real. He had yet to mingle with his group beyond a formal greeting. The horned, red skinned individual being perhaps the most exotic of races he's yet to meet. As the corner turns and the group spills forth into Blingdenstone proper, the immense area fills him with wonder. It isn't until his eyes settle on the destruction of the city that the reality overrides his thoughts. "Manen naira "How awful". What would bring such ruin to this place?"

Grim Evenwood HP: 10 | AC: 13 | Spell Slots: 1 Turning toward Quilian as the Elven words came out of his mouth, Grim responds "The gnomes do love their mess. That's why they sent for outside help, to do a little spring-cleaning. Can't be trusted to do it themselves." The boy looks away, blushing, when their guide gives him a firm scowl. Grim is a human youth of average height and brown, shaggy hair, a bright, green feather interwoven in one lock. He wears simple leathers, with a green brooch in the shape of a leaf fastening his cloak. As most kids do, he trys to maintain an air of coolness in spite of the obvious amazement he experiences from seeing the Underdark for the first time in his life.

Shamis Aeryn Blingdenstone at least looks alive, not like her village after those monsters had finished with it. The last thing these survivors needed was criticism from some latecoming opportunists, which is probably what the svirfneblin considered all the adventurers to be. At least the kids' flapping gums gave Shamis something to differentiate herself from. "Keeping everything looking pretty for you isn't the priority, that'd be surviving long enough to win back what's theirs. They're all pitching in to pay us to help them win the fight, so best show the respect an employer deserves."

Sereia Arlingfeld Sereia follows along with the group, hearing them (if not necessarily listening) but keeping herself silent. She seems distant, and perhaps lost in thought, her gaze mostly looking at the ground ahead of her, but occasionally glancing off in one direction or another. Oftentimes, followed by a deep sigh. Finally, she speaks up: "It's never quite as simple as it first appears; I have to imagine this situation is pretty serious..." She trails off, not really able to form her thoughts as completely as she would like; you can tell by the frown across her brow, her lips forming a disappointed-looking smirk off to one side. Sereia swings her bow around and begins to trace her fingers along the string. She never was particularly experience with one, but it was nevertheless handy to have around. Perhaps this mission would see her make more use of it, she thought. She paused a second, then quickly swapped the weapon for her shield, looking at the symbol emblazoned upon it, before brushing her hand across it in a slow, deliberate fashion. She fixates on it for a moment, before stowing it again.

Entrance to Blingdenstone Briddick turns back to you as he answers your questions. "Blingdenstone, yes this is the entrance. The drow came and we fled, now we return and try to reclaim what we once had." With that said, unless he is asked more questions, he leads the group to a wide stone stairway [1] between two walls. Heading up, turning back to make certain the group is following him. He leads the group to a stone landing [3]. Beyond the landing are two immense metal banded doors that lead into the city. As the group begins to head up the stairs to follow Briddick a few note a large side tunnel [2], large enough to fit ore carts, that leads to a small side chamber [4]. At the top of the stairs they can see that there is a crank at the top, and a chain leading downward. The more mechanically inclined, or intuitive can gather that a cart would be hooked on the chain, and then pulled up the incline by turning the crank. Briddick doesn't explain the device, in fact doesn't even bother looking at it for it is such a common thing to him, instead he pauses at the large banded doors while he waits for you to make your way to the top. Once everyone is up, and has had a chance to catch their breath, he nods and opens the doors. Revealing a maze of stone walls. Home to the Deep Gnome guard, so narrow even the gnomes must travel single file. He carefully leads you through the maze, and it quickly becomes apparent why a guide was needed. Eventually you make your way free of the maze. Leading you into this central cavern [12] Briddick looks back at you and informs you. "This cavern is called Phantasmal Glamours in honor of the magic shop that was once housed here." He nods toward an aged deep gnome rummaging about in the remains of a shop. "Henkala Shadowsong there was the proprietor of Phantasmal Glamours before the attack." Looking around the cavern one can see the aged deep gnome picking through the remains of her shop, and five sentries stationed at four barricades, with two at the northern barricade. Toward the center of the cavern a spring wells up crystal clear.  The map is not accurate as far as the maze and the traps laid within it, if one wishes to leave the city they will need a deep gnome guide.

Ryuujin posted:Entrance to Blingdenstone Sereia Arlingfeld Kneeling down before the wellspring, Sereia traces her fingernails over the surface of the water and blesses herself, whispering something softly before getting back to her feet. Approaching the northern barricade, she stops to speak to the sentries posted there. "I can only assume this route has seen the most action, yes?" she asks, continuing, "is there any sort of command structure among you? I would like to speak to an officer, if there is one to be had."

Quilian Nailos [Recruit Info] HP: 10 | AC: 15 | Arrows: 40 Quilian rests his left hand on the short sword pommel from his hip. Nervous. While not happy with the mazes tight space, his concern sits with his inability to remember the path they're taking. Few indicating marks, if any. A sea of blank, high reaching walls and turns. Not one to be lost easily, he mutters to himself with some sense of awe upon seeing the burnt store, "The drow got through." The elf knows little of Drow. Dark Elves hadn't been sighted back home in ages. Tales survive of their martial prowess, but more their cruelty. To fight such a foe would push his skills, a restless and ardent thought. Before the wellspring he kneels, filling an empty waterskin. Sights and sounds of their trip had him forgetting his own thirst. He had but a mouthful when the nearby guard cries out "Orcs!" He sees them now, too close for arrows. With blades drawn he swiftly moves forward, utilizing the barricade for protection and waits. If he's lucky, they didn't spot him moving, might get to surprise one. Either way, to face down an orc in close combat is no easy task. Quilian knows this well, perhaps more than most. There are few enemies in the world he has faced as many times as an orc, for the species is many and wide spread through out. No surprise to find them even down here, far below the surface world. Moving Quilian up to the barricade and using it for cover (one square north of his position looks like it might work for cover - if not, can ignore the stealth check). Stealth check for advantage on attack. Readying my action; if an orc moves past the barricade to enter the square on my left (or if I have no cover, an orc engages me directly) Quilian uses his two weapon fighting attack action against it. Stealth check: 1#1d20+5 6 Natural 1. Think they saw me?  Two weapon attack action: 2#1d20+5 20 23 Damage: 1#1d6+3 4 1#1d6 5

Grim Evenwood HP: 10 | AC: 13 | Spell Slots: 1 Grim fully intended go over to ruin of the magic shop. If nothing else, ingratiating himself with the local mages might allow him to learn some of the arcane secrets of the Underdark, a place so deeply infused with the Weave that it could drive the unprepared insane. Why else would he be commanded to go down here if not to learn? He only made it a few steps toward Henkala when the guard shouted out. "Nine Hells," he cursed under his breath as he drew his staff with one hand, the other starting to glow green with arcane energies. He launches the blast at the nearest charging foe, the light slamming into its chest. Eldritch blast to Orc 1: 1d20+5 18 1d10 7 force

Sereia Arlingfeld HP: 10/10 | AC:15 | Arrows: "poo poo. I knew I shouldn't have put my shield away.." Sereia thought to herself, cursing, "Stupid, and careless.." Seeing the closest orc rocked by the forceful magic of her human companion, she decided taking out the first rank was a sound strategy; it might buy them some time, if it worked. Stepping forward, she drew her bow and knocked an arrow, firing it off at the orc to her left, he hand shaking a little as she released the bowstring. Longbow at Orc #2: 1d20+5 = 20, damage 1d8+3 = 6 Just as quickly as she had attacked, she backed off to a defensive position, (2 squares west of Quilian's endpoint) looking over to the other elf with a knowing nod, as she drew her shortsword in her free hand. "Hold here," she whispered in elvish, "When they come through, we will strike." P.d0t fucked around with this message at 03:03 on Jul 23, 2014 |

Entrance to Blingdenstone Quilian hides behind the barricade, barely, though most of the orcs spot him without too much trouble. One however is too busy getting hit by strange green energy to notice the figure not quite fully hidden by the barricade. Another orc is about to point out Quilian's hiding place when he gets and arrow in the shoulder, turning his directions into snarled cursing. It rushes Sereia but with the arrow in its shoulder it fails to connect, by quite a large margin. It continues cursing in orcish. Meanwhile the oblivious orc rushes between the barricades, and into the waiting blades of Quilian. After having been hit with a weird green energy and then a bunch of blades that it wasn't even aware of it falls to the ground, dead. The final orc rushes in and attacks Sereia. But this one manages to connect, tremendously. Sereia is nearly knocked from her feet by the tremendous blow. One orc down! And Sereia nearly followed suit when she takes a 9 damage hit, that would have hit even with the shield.

Shamis Aeryn The heavily armored sharpshooter positions herself in enfilade and aims a deadly shot that might have pierced both the orcs at once if her weapon hadn't jammed. Without so much as a grimace she immediately clears the jam and reloads. The enemy won't be so lucky next time. xbow from enfilade; damage: 1d20+7 8 1d10+3 12

Zarnov HP 8/8, AC12, Spell Slots 1/2 "Orcs! You have made the gravest of mistakes! You have angered the lord of the hells, Asmodeus himself!!!" "Don't worry guys that line works most of the time. They'll flee any second now." Raising his hands dramatically towards the orcs that nearly slew Sereia, a sheet of flames erupts from his fingertips and envelops the pair of orcs. It was enough to scorch flesh and make them reconsider angering attacking the gnome city now that they had the power of eeevil on their side. Burning Hands, DC13 Dex save for half damage: 3d6 7 fire damage, and whatever maneuvering is required to only hit the orcs and not an ally.

Entrance to Blingdenstone Shamis misses the orcs but Zarnov steps up between Quilian and Sereia and unleashes a blast of fire on the two remaining orcs, burning one to a crisp. The other, untouched before this, is smoking and looks less than pleased. He turns his bloodshot eyes on Zarnov, and opens his mouth to snarl, though a bit of smoke wisps out. Another orc down! The other is quite injured, that was a pretty good use of a spell. Initiative 21 Grim 21 Quilian 19 Sereia 13 Orcs 09 Shamis 04 Zarnov

They'll be content to begging for scraps, not daring to raise a defiant eye. The boy channels this into another blast of energy, which blows a gaping hole into the beast's ribcage. Eldritch blast to the last Orc: 1d20+5 25  CRIT 1d10 I'm assuming crits in magic attacks work the same way as weapons. If not I just dealt 6 damage.

Yeah, things are going to be alright around here. We got this. All I need is this platoon to back me up, and I can send any foe to meet their maker. What? My hands are shaking? Must be from the excitement, not the fear of those savage beasts charging at me. No sir. He pretends to not notice his wounded companion and goes back to his task of introducing himself to the proprietor, uh, ex-proprietor of Phantasmal Glamours. "Hello and well met, madam. My name is Grim Evenwood and I've been sent here to aid your town. Tell me, what happened to your establishment here?"

Entrance to Blingdenstone The old gnome turns from the carnage to Grim as he walks up to her. "I am Henkala Shadowsong. My shop was destroyed when the drow attacked. Finally we are back and I am trying to salvage what I can and rebuild." She looks Grim up and down, perhaps not thinking much of him, but clearly remembering the sight of him blasting a hole through an orc's chest. She glances back at the other group and the carnage they made of the orcs. Then she turns back to Grim, and lowering her voice as she leans in, adds. "You are here to help us? Let me tell you something Burrow Warden Kargien won’t listen to and I can do nothing about at my age. There’s an evil elemental spirit, you see, that’s haunted Blingdenstone since before it fell. Now the creature keeps to the Miners’ Hall, but who’s to say it’s going to stay there? Once it gets the idea in its gravel head to send elementals our way, there won’t be much we can do. "But pechs have moved into the old Armorers and Weaponsmiths Guild. They know elementals, and if anyone can help us deal with Ogrémoch’s Bane it's them. Talk to them. Do what you can. Kargien might not thank you for it, but I will. I assure you, the gratitude of an old woman is something to be treasured." She winks at you.

No? Ha, you'll be ok, you sure can take a hit. That orc looked pretty confused why you didn't just fall over and die." "Well then. I certainly want to earn the gratitude of Henkala!

Quilian Nailos [Recruit Info] HP: 10 | AC: 15 | Arrows: 40 Pressing up against the barricade, Quilian locks eyes with the woman. Something about her spoke to his instincts, knew she could be trusted. No time to ponder it, he needed to be ready, be prepared to match their ferocity with his own. She nods the signal as Grim’s first green bolt of light flies past. Reverse gripping his short swords, Quilian spins off the barricade and drives them both into the unexpecting orc’s chest with such force as to blow the monster clean off its feet. He doesn't see it so much as feels the intense heat of Zarnov's fire, looking up in time to see another green light blast a fresh hole in the remaining orc. "We have quite the team, here." Retrieving his bloody swords - cleaning off what he can before stowing - the elf smiles to himself as the red-skinned individual shows his concerns to the paladin. His appearance may be strange to Quilian, but his actions speak loud and clear. Before joining the others inquiring of elementals, Quilian turns to Briddick, "These orc attacks, is there a story behind them?"

Phantasmal Glamours Briddick, still a little dazed by the near thing with the orcs, and the speed with which you dispatched them, shakes his head then responds.

Quilian Nailos [Recruit Info] HP: 10 | AC: 15 | Arrows: 40 "No demands, brute force conflicts. The standard actions of a more primal tribe of Orc, most likely with the goal of conquering and expanding territory. We'll want to be more cautious moving forward. These attacks, being unpredictable, may catch us by surprise." Such is the way with Orcs. If his theory is correct, a truce between the city and the Orcs can never happen. Quilian is resolved to end the threat they pose to these people, but that will be handled at a later time. For now, talk of elementals has his group interested, and so he follows.

Phantasmal Glamours As you prepare to go speak to the pech Briddick prepares to leave you. He was your guide through the Defensive Labyrinth as otherwise you would never find your way, but he will not be going with you into areas the svirfneblin have not already reclaimed. He does go with you far enough to the next cavern though. The Ruby in the Rough After traveling through a few tunnels you make your way to a new cavern. A low building in the center of this large cavern marks the entrance to the temple of Segojan Earthcaller, the gnome god of earth, nature, and death. This temple was and is the center of life in Blingdenstone. Next to the entrance of the temple is a smaller building. Here Briddick speaks. "This is The Ruby in the Rough. Our temple to Segojan Earthcaller, the small building next to the entrance is where Burrow Warden Kargien Dissengulp has set up." He then gives you some instructions on how to find the Armorers and Weaponsmiths Guild, which involves following some more eastern tunnels, through another cavern and some more tunnels, and finally into another cavern.

Turning to the party, Grim will continue. "Well, what do you guys want to do? The witch back there told me that the burrow meister or whatever won't listen to her warning about an evil elemental deeper in the caverns, but some guys ahead know more about it. Probably. I think I'm going to go talk with them if you guys want to talk shop with the leader." Grim will wait for anyone to volunteer to go along if they want, and unless there is great objection, he's going to follow Briddick's directions to the Armorers and Weaponsmiths Guild ahead.

I recommend Quilian at the front - his keen elven senses may find danger long before the rest of us.

Quilian Nailos [Recruit Info] HP: 10 | AC: 15 | Arrows: 40 Barrow Warden? Such a title, would likely be improper not to introduce themselves. Grim raises a good point however, he may demand they abandon their current task. Zarnov's response is an agreeable one. "I am light of step. Will move ahead a few paces, not out of sight, only enough to warn of any oncoming dangers. Our guide's directions were clear, I won't stray." Quilian draws on his bow, his preferred weapon for hunting and scouting, both silent and mobile endeavors. When the group has settled, he will lead them to the destination ahead using the guide's directions. Quilian will do the scouting thing for the party; always stealthing and looking out for dangers. If it's a travel rules thing, we move at normal pace with stealth.

Chapter 1 - Armorers and Weaponsmiths Guilds Past the barricades, the tunnels of the ruined city are eerily quiet. The guild cavern comes into view. Stalactites hand low from its ceiling, sometimes touching the stalagmites jutting up from the floor, and the walls are blackened with ancient soot. At the very edge of your light, a small form--too lithe to be a deep gnome--flits behind a stalagmite and out of sight. Forges at the far eastern end of the cavern are still and dark, partially covered with stone that looks as if it has flowed over them.

Quilian Nailos [Recruit Info] HP: 10 | AC: 15 | Arrows: 40 Quilian waits for the others at the entrance of the cavern. He had only caught the vague outline of the creature before it slipped out of sight. "Not sure. Too small to be like the others." Intrigued, Quilian steps closer to where it was last seen. "Are you there? We mean no harm. Henkala Shadowsong sent us. Spoke of.. Elementals?" It's starting to feel like he's talking to himself.

Chapter 1 - Armorers and Weaponsmiths Guilds A few whispers pass through the stone, and after a moment, assuming no one makes a threatening motion or have any weapons out, a head pops up out of the stone. It looks you over, pops back. Then a moment later a small form slides out of the stone. The creature is a little shorter than a dwarf, and a little taller than gnomes, but far more willowy than either. It had long arms and legs, broad feet and hands, and yellowish skin. Its large, dark eyes have no pupils, and its hair is red. It looks over the group warily, and seems ready to slip back into the stone at a moment's notice. The creature speaks, in common, "What do you want to say?" Perhaps curious, but also wary.

Chapter 1 - Armorers and Weaponsmiths Guilds As Sereia mentions Blingdenstone a look of terror passes the pech's face. It partially retreats into the stone. "Blingdenstone! You want us to aid the deep gnomes?" It looks back and forth as if trying to see if anything is listening.

Quilian Nailos [Recruit Info] HP: 10 | AC: 15 | Arrows: 40 Quilian rests his hands on the pommel of his swords, although trying to look non-threatening only makes him look more so. He adds to Sereia's explanations. "Ogrémoch’s Bane, I believe was the name. We hear he is.. Hostile. Perhaps he is causing trouble for you as well. We might be able to work together to end his threat."
