Kenny - Syrus:Syrus to Jack "Oink!"
Chris T.:"Chanting! The ceremony is at hand!"
Malied:"We should make haste to that one first and see if we can prevent its conclusion"
Kenny - Syrus:"Ohhhh! You look much better now Jack!"
Erasmus:"Should we disguise ourselves in these robes? It may allow us to get a little closer before the shit hits the fan."
Simon N. (GM):What is Jack's current hp?

Qiviel:"If there are enough, we could get close to the ceremony with less difficulty..."

Kenny - Syrus:(He also helps others to put them on correctly)
Malied:"bring the hostages with us, it'll look more realistic"
Simon N. (GM):Lina: "Crossbow? he he!"
Qiviel:Q throws one on over her armour to hide the shine and hopefully give some advantage later.
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):felt creep out from Lina laugh but kept it to himself Simon N. (GM):GM: You only have a bit over a minute so suggest you get going south/east...
Chris T.:Is the chanting continuing as we dress up? Any virgin-like screams?

Dissonant Whispers (Syrus, Bard of Many Guises)Source | 1st Level Enchantment |
Description | You whisper a discordant melody that only one creature of your choice within range can hear, wracking it with terrible pain. The target must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, it takes 3d6 psychic damage and must immediately use its reaction, if available, to move as far as its speed allows away from you. The creature doesn’t move into obviously dangerous ground, such as a fire or a pit. On a successful save, the target takes half as much damage and doesn’t have to move away. A deafened creature automatically succeeds on the save. At Higher levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 1st. |

You call forth spirits to protect you. They flit around you to a distance of 15 feet for the duration. If you are good or neutral, their spectral form appears angelic or fey (your choice). If you are evil, they appear fiendish. When you cast this spell, you can designate any number of creatures you can see to be unaffected by it. An affected creature’s speed is halved in the area, and when the creature enters the area for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there, it must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 3d8 radiant damage (if you are good or neutral) or 3d8 necrotic damage (if you are evil). On a successful save, the creature takes half as much damage.

Simon N. (GM):The long stairs lead up past the cult barracks
Malied Edicast (James):ah, i see now
Kenny - Syrus:"Do we have a plan??"
Chris T.:"Kill anything wicked."
Malied Edicast (James):Ok, itss this way, not far
Simon N. (GM):A Sphinx lounges in a crackling blue circle,
Shark fins break the surface of the pools as they circle endlessly.
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"uhhh i dont think we are ready for this"
Chris T.:"Which way now, Mailed?"
Erasmus:GM Would Erasmus have read anything about sphinx in the books at the priory?
Malied Edicast (James):What does Malied know about Sphinx's?
Simon N. (GM):The Sphinx raises a lazy paw, licks the back of it, and looks at you with a flick of her long lustrous hair. "Hi there."
Kenny - Syrus:Whispers to Everyone "Shall we try draw her out of here into a corridor??"
Simon N. (GM):"I'm Gina. Would you be the ones who disabled this Circle?"
Qiviel:"Perhaps we should simply speak to her?" Q whispers back.
Malied Edicast (James):"Hello there"
Kenny - Syrus:Syrus scratches his head I can play her a song?
Simon N. (GM):Gina regards Malied. "It was you, wasn't it? I can see the sparkles!"
Malied you sense the blue circle is fading.
Norrin (Geoff):Whispers to Syrus "She might like that."
Malied Edicast (James):"I am afraid so"
Kenny - Syrus:TO GINA: "M'Lady, are you a friend?"
Simon N. (GM):Gina smiles. "Great! The evil ones were going to draw out my life essence to create an artifact!"
Gina regards Syrus slyly. "Why? You looking for a friend?"
Kenny - Syrus:whispers to party she sounds friendly??
TO GINA "M'lady I was wondering if you are on the side of the Cultists"
Simon N. (GM):Gina tests the boundary of the circle. Blue sparks fly. "Hm... nearly."
Qiviel:"I think not if they were going to drain her life."
Malied Edicast (James):"ah good, I would hate to see a creature such as yourself destroyed"
Kenny - Syrus:"Did the Evils cage you in this blue circle?"
Simon N. (GM):Gina glares at Syrus. "They put me in this circle! They were going to turn me into a sword or something!"
Malied Edicast (James):"Now that the ritual has been broken will you recover?"
Simon N. (GM):With a grunt, Gina pushes through the weakening circle.
She looms over you. She's very large.
Chris T.:"Will your book dispelthe flames? Mailed"
Kenny - Syrus:"Is there anything else we can help you with M'Lady?"
Simon N. (GM):"I'll be fine. Now, let me see..."
Gina reaches out and pats Malied on the head. "I grant you the Boon of Knowledge."
Qiviel:"If we all move to one side of the hall, she should be able to pass us."
Kenny - Syrus:"Can you grant us any aid?"
Simon N. (GM):GM: Malied you feel a lot smarter - +2 INT
Malied Edicast (James):"My Word! You honour me mistress!
Kenny - Syrus:"M'Lady a few of my friends are very wounded from battle, anything you can help us with healing?"
Chris T.:Nice boon, James ;)
Simon N. (GM):She glances at Syrus. "Yes - any of you, call upon me by name when you seek wisdom and I shall grant you a mystic audience, Only once though - it gets boring."
"Wounded? Yes, there is a tasty scent of blood in the air..." Gina licks her lips, looking very catlike "...and I AM very hungry. "
Chris T.:Jack offers her a wound to lick
Erasmus:"You're... joking... right?"
Chris T.:"If you're very hungry,I have a little to spare."
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"wait whatnare you sane Jack?"
Simon N. (GM):She looks hungrily at Jack then collects herself. "...But it would be rude to eat you right after you freed me."
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):insane*
Kenny - Syrus:"Thank You Lady Gina for granting us your wisdom - but errrr - by wounded I was asking if you have power to HEAL us"
Norrin (Geoff):"Most of us endeavour to keep our blood inside our bodies, Jack...."
Malied Edicast (James):"we have left a bloody trait of corpses of those who wronged you"
Chris T.:"You areas gracious as you arebeautiful, Lady Gina." Jack bows low
Malied Edicast (James):"will they satisfy your hunger"
Simon N. (GM):"Corpses? Orcs are too fatty, but I can certainly dine... "
Chris T.:Jack winks at Norrin
Simon N. (GM):"... on human flesh."
Erasmus:"Indeed. There are many fallen here. But if you would allow us some time to ensure nothing of value is left before you dine?"
Chris T.:I'd like to see that git get eaten
Kenny - Syrus:"There are PLENTY of freshly slain cultist humans behind us too, M'Lady"
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"well there is a lot of human cultist you can enjoy"
Chris T.:(Love the shark infested pools by the way. Every villain's lair should have one!)
Simon N. (GM):then strolls off to find some cultists to eat.
Norrin (Geoff):"I hope that won't come back to bite us in the ass later," Norrin says.
Simon N. (GM):(she's ignoring the rest of your queries)
Chris T.:anything up here, Simon?
Erasmus:GM If there are no other threats, can we assume we go and loot every corpse before Gina eats them all?
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"it seem we completed our task lets get a long rest and return to civilization"
Simon N. (GM):The narrow tunnel leads back to the library
Chris T.:Aye, now is the time to loot the place rotten :D
Maybe detect magic on all those books?
Kenny - Syrus:Whispers to Qiviel and Norrin - "So glad I did not waste a song on HER! Wouldn't even heal us up!!"
Jyrdani of Jiyyd:"Hm, chest under this bed..."
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"what did you find"
Jyrdani of Jiyyd:leaps back, drawing her sword Kenny - Syrus:@DM are there magic scrolls in the library??

Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"you can take it Qiviel"
Kenny - Syrus:"This way everyone!!" Simon N. (GM):Finishing off now - searching the complex, you find a second unguarded treasure chest in the north bedchamber; this was Kaystar's hoard.

Kenny - Syrus:Yeah - that room looks important (because of frog statue)
Erasmus:Perhaps Simon can give us the lowdown on anything magical in the forum during downtime?
Qiviel:"If we investigate, we should do this as a group"
Qiviel:Also, Q is ready to level, so she will do that during the down time :)
Simon N. (GM):GM: The foul blood drenched statue of Tsathhoggua can be deconsecrated using the ritual in the Liber Damnatis.
Chris T.:@ Simon, will you be posting updated XP scores after the game?
Kenny - Syrus:"Let's move away from those bed barracks though, in case the Sphinx sees us and want to eat us!!"

Malied Edicast (James):Awesome all!
Erasmus:"I wonder what happened to Lina..."
Kenny - Syrus:Lina with the beers!
Malied Edicast (James):Your singing puts Malied off and the spells goes in reverse
Simon N. (GM):Word of the fallen hero is sent to Duke Dragonsbane at the Vaasan Gate.
Kenny - Syrus:Did Mary become another Sister of the Weird Outfits Order?? ;)
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"either return to the Smiths Eramus or somewhere else"
Kenny - Syrus:@Malied Haha and Malied becomes the next Slimey Toad God!!!
Chris T.:Jack willoffer to takethe bad news.It's best coming from a friend?
Simon N. (GM):Mary is escorted back to her family by the Sisters. While you are resting up and some of you training to level, you hear Lina Smith apparently returned to her family with a tearful tale of having been kidnapped by the evil cultists.
Malied Edicast (James):yea...i'm gonna call bullshit on that story :P
Simon N. (GM):>>Jack willoffer to takethe bad news.It's best coming from a friend?<< The news of Vicky's death?
Erasmus:"Don't forget to pick up your armour, Strohm."
Simon N. (GM):Strohm gets his full plate
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"might visit Lina while im at it too Eramus"

Chris T.:Happy for Qiviel to get her stuff
Erasmus:Let Qiviel take that.

Strohm of Leth (Muiz):splitting all the gold among us equally how much gold does each PC got?
Qiviel:Good for a meat shield :)
Erasmus:I'll deal with the coin. I have a note of it all, will sell gems etc to gat a total, then I'll put it in the forum.
Simon N. (GM):I'll give another 50 wrap-up XP, so 700 total overall
Kenny - Syrus:@SIMON will you post in the forum how much XPs we will get too?

Kenny - Syrus:Yea Syrus just qualifies for Level 4!
Simon N. (GM):GM: I'll pick up game in new year about a month later after you have trained & Jack has returned from the Vaasan Gate. Duke Gareth Dragonsbane thanks him and encourages him to make these lands his ward.
Kenny - Syrus:Ace! Roughly which date will that be?
Chris T.:Did Jack make 4th?
Norrin (Geoff):I won't be available Jan 2. My turn to work again. :(
Chris T.:Thanks for a grand game as always, Simon. And thanks again everyone for making things a lot of fun. Stay safe and have a great holiday!

Erasmus:Does it go up at 5th?
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):what is training cost for?
Simon N. (GM):Training to Gain Levels - as per DMG page 131.

Simon N. (GM):Thanks all - happy Xmas, peaceful New Year!
Bye now!
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):damn 20 gold off my list
Simon N. (GM):40gp for Malied
Erasmus:Have a great break all. Thanks for a really enjoyable adventure, Simon. Looking forward to the next in the new year.
Malied Edicast (James):coolio, thanks smn
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):Thanks for the game Simon
Erasmus:James - you'll be getting way more than 40gp from the loot, I'm sure!
Malied Edicast (James)::)
Qiviel:By 3rd level, the divine magic flowing through you makes you immune to disease.
Erasmus:Paladins are cool.
Qiviel:Once they get to higher levels - I have 3 spells now instead of 2 but mostly just building up AC so I can be a meat shield :)
Erasmus:Have you guys been playing long?
Qiviel:A few years - I started with Simon, built my Druid, Quillax, up from level 1 to 20+8 epic boons.
Erasmus:Sweet. I imagine druids are hard to get going with.
Qiviel:Actually, they are easy to get going with, hard to keep up at the higher levels. Mostly meat shield since they can shape change a lot
Malied Edicast (James):lv 3-20 with my original barb with Simon, died with his firey exploding sword slaughting off storm giant, then i started playing his pissed off wife
Malied Edicast (James):my barb was a force to be reckoned with
Qiviel:Indeed, only sheer bad luck and a nasty RuneLord with a grudge and disintegrate stopped him in the end
Malied Edicast (James):ah, the blade Goravk how i miss you...
Erasmus:My first game was a one-shot for my birthday in August (b'day is March, but COVID!). Since then, I joined Simon for this, I play a Wildemount campaign on Roll20 and Discord, plus I'm DMing for my son and some of his mates.
I love D&D!!
