D&D Act One Scene IV - In the shadow of Sanderjarn

Fourier · 2017-12-08 12:21:30

Citra sails across the skies, passed the Krasten forests. Ekbard can make out the smoke from the houses in Clayton below. Passing that, they reach the Blight Mountains. Terrible peaks, high and covered with permafrost, they average a height of six miles. BandyLegs knows that terrible creatures inhabit the slopes. Clearer…

Using gloved hands, Othegre probes the tissue, looking to see if it's removable - from the floor or Xanthea

It's growing out of Xanthea quicker than it can be removed. Her body is almost completely covered now.

Bandylegs drags himself to his feet, panting.

Othegre and Ekbard emerge from behind swinging. Askit swerves left dodging Othegre.

Ekbard rushes in from the side with a swipe. Askit swerves again, but not quick enough for the follow up swipe.

As magic runes activate along the sword, Askit is cut in half. The two halves land on the floor with a thud and begin to search for each other.

Goodie's arrow lands into the lower half piercing it and pinning it to the floor. It withers and dies as it loses fluid through the hole the arrow created.

The upper half attempts to fly away but is grabbed by BandyLegs and thrown to the ground.

The liquid bleeds away from the top, leaving only the face of a fifteen year old boy atop a sickly mask of fluid.

"DO IT" he screams at BandyLegs "END IT NOW, I'VE HAD ENOUGH.................please"

As BandyLegs brings down the axe he says....

A wave of magical energy is released from Askit as the axe comes down on the boy's skull. The skull split and BandyLegs cuts him in half. The wave passes over the complex and the tissue falls from Xanthea.

The Mother creature looks weakened and defenseless. The souls of millions pulse inside her.

BandyLegs rips the beast open along its base. And a river of the fluid pours out. It's freezing cold giving everyone slight frostbite (1HP lost).

A mild Earthquake follows.

A pit, which Ekbard knows leads to a former body of Vergadain, is exposed. A gush of hot air blasts out.

From the fluid at their feet the souls of thousands rise. From the pit the souls of millions.

The creature attempts to reform, but the nascent head is ruptured with an arrow from Goodie. Ekbard slices any regrowing limbs.

The beast is dead.

The souls of millions begin their ascent into the afterlife.

However the ancient seals on their undead bodies are not yet broken. Across the mountain millions are rejoined with their bodies.

An army of the undead is born. Millions of white eyed raging corpses rise and begin a frantic run toward Soetrard. They should reach it in twenty days.

At the side of the mountain Elin the thief had managed to land safely. The corpses now rise about her. She makes an excellent appetizer. A first meal here on the slopes of Sanderjarn.

END OF ACT ONE

Once Xanthea is up in the cabin with Othegre (hmm, is that wise???) I return back down to the chaple.

Ooc : nice of them to ignore the more conveniently located dwarven city:)

I'm sure Citra will take care of it. We should get back to looking? And maybe save any health stuff for the nascent Soetard black market? Sieges are great business opportunities, it's like bitcoin for fantasy landers like ourselves!
