SWAMP STRAVENGANZA!

From Tenebrae
Jump to navigation Jump to search

You know what's even better than the city?!

THE SWAMP!

Okay, so maybe not all of you thing that. BUT MITTENS KNOWS WHAT I'M SAYING! Especially as her pig rolls over in the mud of the swamp again.

Of course that doesn't answer why you're out here, right? Right! Well that's easy enough too. Weird lights wandering in with caravans at night near small swamp fen town.

Wait... That was a mish-mash of words.

Weird lights were spotted near the small swamp leading into the fen and they were spotted near nightfall. The Caravans wrote back about it. Within a month it turned into raving swamp hags and swarms of will-o-wisps. And a few days after that it was: Hey! Adventurers. Go... Adventure! For money. And loot. Maybe loot.

Did we mention money?

Kae is humming a song! It's something that's popped into her head from somewhere, she knows not, but part of the chorus includes "money Money Money by the poud!"

Galidor has boisterously told everyone his name and self appointed titles. He hmms, "All right a swamp. Probably just seen some will o wisps, but who knows many something stronger is out there." He says with a draconish smile.

Morgan is hoping more something a wizard can use but she wants to find out what would make a swamp in just short amount of time. But then this is the part of her nerd brain "any one know how to deal with a swamp."

Kae is humming a song! It's something that's popped into her head from somewhere, she knows not, but part of the chorus includes "money Money Money by the poudnd!" She pauses taps her chin, then shrugs and goes on singing said music as she looks around the swamplands.. "So whispies and hags and stuffs? I wonder if someone like left a doorway to like some underworld in as wamp or something, possibly again? I dunno if that's an uncommon or common occurance." She mutters... She's carrying her wrench in her hand and over her back? Well that would be her 'zappy' gun....

Raving swamp hags? Those are Mittens' people. Small wonder she's here then, bopping along like fens and swamps and marshes are like the best. As ever, her big ol' stinky pig is tagging along, stopping here and there to stick his oinker in the muck and root for yummy stuff. He's doing that now, as the little witch leans back against him and grabs one of her braided pigtails in either hand and starts to twirl them as she waits. "Money money money..." She absently sings in her tiny, high pitched voice.

Kore finds herself periodically humming along with Mittens and Kaelyn, only to flash them a flabbergasted look and shake her head repeatedly. Finally the Monk is chanting to Vardama in a low-pitched voice, speeding up as their songs intrude. Then she starts to copy Kaelyn's tune...

Only a bit behind the group is the rather large form of Blauensturm. With his rifle on his shoulder and his hammer in his hand, he trudges with them towards, and even through the swamp. "Lights, huh?"

The swamp sort of spreads out in every direction from where you are, though you know that the caravans usually are more east of here and they were the ones talking about hags gone wild and Will-o-swarms (Not to be confused with Willow swarms).

Of course the closest thing you've all seen to a will-o-wisp is firefly and the closest you've seen to a swamp hag is Mittens...

Which doesn't really count...

Because Mittens actually is a swamp hag...

Though less warty and a lover of pigs instead of slugs.

Morgan says as she is wishing she had longer legs at this moment "I read that swamps have whisps monsters but some times it might be swamp gass."

Kae glances around curiously, blinking at this Mittens person? She tilts her head curiously and stares if they're really close by.... "Umm could it just be swamp gass and a local denizen making lights and stuff?" She asks curiously.... Kae then motions to Mittens, her finger swirling in the air as she points....

GAME: Kaelyn refreshes spells.

Galidor nods in agreement with Morgan, "You could be right or they are drinking moonshine, too much of drinking that foul water." He shakes his head a bit.

Not-a-Whirl has arrived.

GAME: Kaelyn refreshes spells.

GAME: Kore casts Follow Aura. Caster Level: 4 DC: 16

Mittens is kinda easy to miss, being 2 feet and five inches tall. When Kaelyn points, she points the ends of her pigtails in the same direction and lifts her eyebrows way up until they disappear under her wide brimmed hat. After a moment, she blows a breath out between her closed lips, producing a ripping fart noise. It's... swamp gas! Then, as though summoned by farts, there is light! A few of them, actually.

GAME: Mittens casts Dancing Lights. Caster Level: 3 DC: 14

GAME: Kore rolls Perception: (18)+14: 32

Kore is busy chantin. She crouches down ner the cheers and lifts her holy syumbol. The tiny Monk stares into the woods for a moment and takes a deep breath. "This way. I sense strong evil passed through here earlier in the day. If we're to find anything like we were told to look for its in this direction." Kore looks back aat the group then sets off into the woods. She is, for once, in her element.

Morgan says as she is about to follow Kore "note to self see about a detect evil spell." but she starts to shift her weight with her staff as she wants to make sure there is no supriesed deeper water spots.

Kae blinks and peers at Mittens, and the lights and mittens and blinks again... "Ummmm..." She says, yaah she's very eloquent today... Kae then shrugs and reaches out to poke at the little lights... Poke poke poke

"Detect Evil would probably blind you if you were to cast it now," Kore responds to Morgan cheerfully. She seems to be lighting her way with an ordinary hunk of silver in the shape of a harp. Now she begins to sing,

"When life is hard and future's cold

Vardama's light shines on your soul

When battles done and you are old

Oh, harpist's daugher, bear me home..."

Blauensturm looks to Kore as she begins to sing. "haunting lullaby..." he says to her, but keeps a watch out from his 'perspective'

GAME: Bolide makes Galidor roll Perception:(11)+2: 13

GAME: Galidor rolls perception: (5)+2: 7

Galidor hmms as start to look around, "Nothing but swamp from the look of it." He cracks his knuckles and wiggles his fingers to keep them limber.

You walk along through the swamps. The group of you all trudging (except Mittens who seems totally unaffected by it).

An hour passes, with Kore focusing in more on the trail while the rest of you keep your eyes up and out. Watching for any hags or wisps.

There's a splorching noise from off to one side as swamp gas escapes, a hiss from the other. The swamp is growing darker the farther you travel in. Though... somehow, you all feel like you're still just a stones throw from town.

Maybe there is something about this rumor. Huh...

Who knew.

The lights Mittens apparently conjured float around, slowly bobbing up and down as they rotate around the little halfling. Being lights, they can't really be poked, but they dance away from Kaelyn's finger all the same. They only respond to Mittens who points at one and directs it this way and that, making it do circles around the dawn elf's head. Then she starts mime-juggling them. Then she gets bored and seems to forget that she had lights to play with, probably because there's singing going on and the party is moving, and her pig is also. She follows, smiling absently, one ear tipped up and just gliding along the top of the muck like she's just too light to get sucked into it. "I SENSE SOMETHING." She announces, shrilly, as she climbs up onto the gnarled root of a nearby tree for a better look about. Something is a bit vague, but that's all she says.

"...I can't see the trail any longer but it has to be close. If we spread out I am sure we'll find it." Kore looks up then, tucking away the holy symbol she'd been carrying held out this whole time. She takes a deep breath and then adjusts her simple belt, shifting her weight slightly as she does. Next is the colored sash she wears across her chest, in the same Vardaman silver as the one piece of jewelry she carries. "Perhaps-"" Then Mittens callls out and Kore winces. "That is a help. Let's find it."

No more lights everyone is moving! Kae turns and whistles happily as she wanders along with the group, her hands going behind her back and clasping as she looks around curiously.... "Sooo does anyone know just exactly what we're looking for?"

GAME: Galidor casts Detect Magic. Caster Level: 3 DC: 14

Galidor starts to cast a spell and his eyes glow golden as he starts to look around, "Hold on a moment and I'll start to see if there is magic." He hmms, "There is some magic here, hold on for like 30 seconds."

Morgan thinks Galidor has a good idea as she says "I will back you up on that." she starts to say the arcane words that make her eyes flash red as she will help.

GAME: Morgan casts Detect Magic. Caster Level: 3 DC: 14

GAME: Kore rolls perception: (5)+14: 19

GAME: Kore rolls knowledge/nature+4: (20)+6+4: 30

Kore continues to survey her surroundings, quietly creeping through the woods. She eventually moves into a copse of trees and steps behind a broad, gnarled oaak in the midst of her search.

Kore walks out from behind the gnarled oak in the midst of her search and gives a shrug of her shoulders. "I don't see any signs of witches."

Morgan sighs and says to the group "I wonder if the caravanners are the hags looking to laugh at us."

Mittens beckons her pig closer and from the gnarly root she throws herself over his back and then wriggles around until she's sitting upright. Her hat needs a fixing, so she pulls and tugs it straighter by the brim, then calls out in her shrieky voice, "SHOW YOURSELF! I AM MITTANYA MUDLUMP AND I HAVE COME TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT IMPORTANT WITCH THINGS! ACCEPT THIS SACRIFICE IN HOMAGE!" She takes a biscuit from her satchel and chucks it into the deepest looking, most stagnant pool in sight.

After a second Kore comes back around the tree and frowns as she looks around. "I didnt see any sign---" Then she jumps slightly, coming face to face with herself. "A witch! Or an illusion!" It's the first ime Kore's been heard to shout, but given the circumstances...

Kore points at Kore, "A witch! Or an illusion!" It's one of the first times Kore's been heard to shout, but given the circumstances...

Galidor frowns a bit as he looks at the Kore, "You are both illusions. Be gone!" He turns towards the left, "The source of the magic is this way." He says as he points off to the left, "Morgan do you concur?"

"IT'S A DOUBLEDORE!" Mittens screams, pointing at the twin Kores like they're less duplicates and more ghosts. She's freaking out! But she can still act, if only to pull another biscuit from her satchel and throw it at the closest Kore.

"Hey!" Kore says as she's beaned with a biscuit, the biscuit falling into the water soon after. "That was uncalled for! She's the witch!" The beaned Kore points at the other Kore.

"Throwing biscuits won't hellp! You have to think rationally. I presume our alignments are identical. Can it mimic spells?" Kore pauses for a second. "This might be quite difficult to unravel.

GAME: Morgan rolls spellcraft: (10)+13: 23

GAME: Galidor rolls spellcraft: (17)+6: 23

GAME: Kore rolls spellcraft: (1)+8: 9 (EPIC FAIL)

"Well of course, that's what I was trying to tell you all." The Half elf points again at the other Kore, "She's the witch. Quick! Get her before she starts casting and gets us all. Do you know what a Fen Witch could do? She could just speak one of ours names and we could die."

Morgan looks to Galidor and says "I wonder if something is following us and has natural magic ablitys.... I think I was told Hags are very magical monsters."

GAME: Morgan rolls Knowledge/Nature: (16)+8: 24

Morgan steps up next to Galidor, "Clearly this must me something that has the ability to mim-m-mic..." And she peters off as she points over toward the one who just talked, "Oh no, there's another one!"

Well, well, what about eating biscuits then? Mittens apparently brought a small bakery in her bag, so she reaches in for another biscuit and begins to nibble on it as she watches the drama of the two Kores play out, fascinated and also hungry, but mostly fascinated. "WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT, FEN WITCH?" She asks, you know about saying a name and killing them.

Galidor raises his claws, "Hold on a moment let's calm down and not get all excited. This doesn't appear to be magical, something more along the lines of natural or even supernatural mimicry." He rubs his chin a bit as he thinks about it. "So who here knows the most about Kore?" He looks around to the others.

Blauensturm is.....simply watching. he can't tell the difference between his ally and the illusion Kore, so he waits....with his pistol in hand.

Kae glances around curiously now "Soooo ummm, can someone just tell me what's going on then? We found the issues and stuff?" She asks now glancing around curiously.... She taps her head at all the illusions and stuff and blinks... "This is kinda crazy..." Kae gets a big grin and starts looking around for an illusion Kae...

Morgan looks to the other Morgan and says "Of all the people here you copy me, I find that flatering." she does hold her staff in her hands but not in a combat stance.

"Woh!" Kore says, backing up and moving closer to Mittens. "See what I mean! She's evil, I can /see/ she's evil. Now she's trying to attack me. Quick! Get her!"

Kae peers at all the folks getting ready for a possible fight. She shrugs and does just the same. The woman throws up a shield spell just in case before possible further aggression .... "Sooo the illusions are attacking folks?

Morgan makes a few motions in the air making a glyph as a read armor like aura shimers around her for a moment. "Oh please drop the act and tell us what you want. This group could give a damn about my life and would not care about killing us both to make sure." she is not bluffing she thinks this.

Mittens starts to cackle herself, like yawns for normal people, cackling for witches is totally contagious. Biscuit crumbs fly out of her mouth all over the place. The pig oinks nervously. Cackling is never good. He knows. "YOU ARE THE BEST WITCH EVER!" She eventually yells out, well after she's wibble-wobbled her fingers and cast a spell herself.

Kore turns toward the cackling and takes a deep breath. She pauses for a second, a foot still forward. "There. If that's the correct direction then..." Kore takes off toward the noise like a bullet, sprinting through the rough, swampy ground without a second's hesitation. One might think this situation bothers her.

Kae flails her arms "Noo fighting! We dun need to fight! That and I dun like to waste ammo firing zappy everywhere! Soo no fighting!" She calls outl.... "Anyhow we were just here to investigate sitings of lights and stuffl. We didn't want to fight per say!" She then notices Kore running "Ummmm whatcha doing going that way?!?"

GAME: Bolide rolls 7: (8)+7: 15

Kore pulls out a longsword as the other Kore charges off, swinging at Mittens and shrieking out, "She's gone mad! She's eating biscuits /IN THE SWAMP/! Imagine how much mold is on them?!'

The other Morgan laughs and shakes her head, "Oh come on. We both know that's not the case." She flips her hair back over her shoulder, and leans in. Morgan backs up from herself, and that's when Morgan launches at herself, grabbing at her with a grin as her nails dig in. And she looks like she leans in close to go after her neck.

It is now Mittens' turn! Morgan is next!

Moving to the other side of the morgan that attacked, Blauensturm now has a clue on who to attack. He swings his hammer wide though....

Mittens quickly tucks her head in to avoid the sword being swung about at her, and cackles as if it's more funny than actually super life threatening. Her pig though, he's more about self preservation and not becoming bacon, so squeals and bolts. The sudden movement flattens Mittens backwards and she starts to flop and bounce, held to the pig by her legs and not much else. She's still cackling though, and waving a half eaten biscuit around. When she's able to stop, she commands like an imperious chipmunk, "STOP THIS AT ONCE! I AM THE GRAND HAG OF THE BURPING SWAMP!"

Kore stands next to Mittens, holding a longsword and just kinda stares. She looks kinda confused really, a tilt of her head to the side as the half elf. "What? Why would I care if you're the... You make so little sense small one who rides pig."

"I've found the creature!" Kore calls. "Our friend was right as to its location." A brief pause. "This thing is... Revolting." Kore rarely emotes much but theres a bit of disgust in her tone. Even so, she fearlessly runs toward the hag, sprinting acrossopen ground and fighting back the desire to vomit or turn and flee. Having closed upon it she immediately leaps into a swift kick against the monster's side.

The Witch turns and stares at Kore. She starts to chuckle, her lips curl into something far more grotesque before her gaze lands on Kore. She stares hard, her eyes bearing down into her but then has a look of mild confusion like something isn't working right.

Morgan backs up from herself and then draws a sword, cutting down at the other one of her and hitting her with a shake of her head, "Gods I never made a very good mage, might as well use the sword! But I'll look great either way." Wow, insults? that's just petty!

Round Five - Init 23.

It is now Kore's turn! Galidor is next!

Morgan steps back even more as she makes a sharp pointing motion to the bad copy of her self sending 2 bolts direct to the middle of her chest doing some nice dammage but not kiling it.

Being hacked up with a sword makes the tiny hag, leader of the DEATHSKULLFACEMURDERMARSH Coven, angry! Also, bloody. How does such a small person have so much blood in them, even? It pours out like a high pressure geyser from the rent in her black cloak, a bright red arc that spatters onto the ground. "HOW DARE YOU! I WILL MELT YOUR BRAINS." By screaming in the other hag's head, directly, with magic.

Round Five - Init 19.

It is now Kaelyn's turn! Morgan2 is next!

The, quite afraid, version of Kore gives another cut at Mittens after she shrieks at her with a VENGEANCE! She shrieks back, though it's not the shriek but the sword that's the problem as... it looks bad! It's enough to make Mittens fall to the marshy ground.

Kae frowns, she's about to shoot the nottaKore, then notices MIttens go down? Kae blinks and makes her way to Mittens, the oddball elf moving amazingly fast considering, or maybe not what with a spell going. She kneels down and places a tiny box on Mittens... THis even has a little turn handle which well is spinning... It chimes up... then well 'pop goes the weasel' it even chimes that in as little blue sparklies comes out of the open box and settle on Mittens before sinking in... Yes,she just healed Mittens with an artificed jack in the box... Bored artificers are sometimes goofy ones....

The other Morgan grins at Blauensturm as he misses her. "Oh c'mon." She says with a shake of her head, she looks at the War Golem and just grins before lashing out with her sword and a laugh.

Round Six - Init 23.

It is now Kore's turn! Galidor is next!

  • SPLAT*. That's literally the sound Mittens makes when she's knocked off her pig by the powerful blow and lands in the muck, totally dead. Hitting her with a sword like that is just complete overkill. Like attacking an ant with a rocket launcher, since Mittens only has like four of the healths total.

But wait! Kaelyn appears to apply a jack in the box, and that seems to revive her, slowly. If the pig of hers could talk he'd probably saying, "Mittens, stay down!", but she sits up and starts to mumble arcane words and wave her arms weakly around. It's not very effective.

Morgan makes a motion that makes her hands blur as she gives a sharp word in the magic language that makes a small flaming sphere in thebad Morgans space but she doges out of the way but it stays there.

She's cut! Kae flails, and skips back, really moving near 10 or so steps in the time it takes someone to cover 5! She raises her death ray, firing from the hip this time at the one that just swung a sword at her, striking them in the torso with the blast from her deathray "Not nice!!!" She says, flailing some more.

Round Seven - Init 23.

It is now Kore's turn! Galidor is next!

Morgan eyes goes wide as her sphere finaly hits the monster but it skin looks like it melts to a mouthless creature as it slumps in to the water dead "Damn it talked alot for no mouth.

Mittens's pig gets a mouthful of her cloak and starts dragging her away. She doesn't resist, but just remains seated and leaves a narrow butt groove in the mud which grows shallower the faster the pig tugs her along, which is pretty fast. He's got four legs, and he's big, so she goes wheee! Until she snags on some gnarly swamp tree roots and the momentum flips her over and over in a cartwheel that ends, miraculously, with her in a crouch, she can shakily stand up from - now well clear of that long sword the evil Kore has been hacking her up with.

GAME: Bolide removes the timestop.

Timestop by Bolide has left.

Kae is cut, again! She doesn't know how it got through her shield spell and her armor, but well the elf bleeds... She limps backward and raises her deeath ray, snapping a shot at the not-Kore and connecting! The zot drops them, and Kae pants as she stares... "We done yet?" She mutters curiously as she glances around now.... "I dun feel good I've got cuts, and well these thingies aren't nice!"

Blauensturm says, "Looks that way." His eyes change back to blue as he says that. "Is everyone still functional?""

With the last creature dying, it turns back into a mouthless thing that crumples to the ground with a wordless scream. And as it dies, the whole place changes. The sound of bugs returns in a way that you didn't realize it was gone, the sound of frogs. Maybe even that of a pig off in the distance. You really aren't that far away from the town after all.

The spell is broken over this wilderness, it has been cleansed...

Kae tugs out another little box, and turns the little crank on it. She smiles as it dings pop goes the weasel, and suddenly Kae's showered in blue sparklies, her wounds starting to close up... She pokes at a few of the cuts and whines... "These things hurt!" she calls out.

"I need some toes!" Mittens cries out, like she lost hers, but no, her shoes look fully intact and she's running for the crumpling hag corpse with a little lucht blade in hand. She's going to saw off some fresh toes, apparently.

Morgan looks to her self and then walks to Blauensturm "Thank you for your help, any tihng I can help you?"

Blauensturm looks down...down.....down....to Morgan. "My system will repair themselves shortly, Morgan. thank you for your concern...."

Morgan smiles and says "I am glad you will be fine. Sory I do not know to much about how you work so I am glad you are going to be fine."

Blauensturm says, "I am an artificer, Morgan....if my Death Ray didn't give me away." there's humor in his voice, but he...can't exactly smile. You know.....faceplate..."
