ep 111 22/3/4720 AR (to 9pm) Fall of Commander Viorian; Leng Device Shutdown - EB

The Thing From Beyond Time

Simon N. (GM):>>Quillax:Alright, here's how it's going to go down -As soon as V crosses through the doors, Q and Claw are going to charge and shove her against the wall at the same time, Q is going to stone shape 5 feet of stone from that wall where the spiral is to cover the sword and V's arm, pinning her to the wall, preferably with her arm bent so she can't pull her arm out of the stone shape. Then Everyone go for it :)<<
Claw:Yo
Simon N. (GM):hi James & James!

Quillax:(Eldrin should still have foresight running as it lasts 8 hours, I think)
Eldrin Ætherwood:Foresight doesnt affect ini
Yeah, i popped foresight downstairs before we came up.
Simon N. (GM):Why not? Init is an Ability Check? GM: As Viorian passes through the Aklo Doors. you act...
Eldrin Ætherwood:Oh? Maybe i'm the one that got it wrong then.

Eldrin Ætherwood:Not the best person to man handle others
Ok one moment

Quillax:Barbarian brute force activate! :)
Simon N. (GM):she gets 17 Athletics vs your min 30 and is slammed into wall (takes 2 Attacks), she takes 11 dmg from that and is up against the wall w arm pinned as Quillax uses Stone Shape...
The wall whips out and wraps around her Chellan arm before she can free it - the warping of the stonework also opens a window out onto the ramp shaft 20' above the ramp.
I've marked the breach, it's about 3' across.
Quillax:(I was afraid of that, but I have a plan that should buy us some time.)
Simon N. (GM):Viorian: "Aaagh! Release me!!"
#11 Mal your go.
Malassandra:M already has Freedom of Movement and Shield of Faith up and running
She strikes at herwith the sun sword. Advantage as she's held?

AC is 21 as she left her shield behind :)

Simon N. (GM):ok
Round 2 - Eldrin
Eldrin Ætherwood:Eldrin looks around... "i;m unable to draw my swords on her while she's like this.... its not right"
He watches and passes turn
Claw:-.-
Simon N. (GM):Viorian's eyes flash green and she speaks in Karzoug's voice: "Infamy! Infamy!"
"You'll pay for your betrayal!"
#20 Quillax
V's eyes turn brown again. She looks frightened. "Please... don't do this! Don't kill me!"
Claw:Akward moral choice
Quillax:Q looks at Eldrin sharply, Thousands, millions may die because you are malcontent to strike out at the human form of a RuneLord. May your god forgive you."
Eldrin Ætherwood:Eldrin looks to the group, looking nervous.
Quillax:She lays down a line of Sunbeam right against V's chest
Eldrin Ætherwood:"and who is this person, shackeled to this runelord? Is she also guilty??"
Malassandra:"I will raise your mortalfporm, Storm Giant. Fear not. It is Karzoug we're here fr.!"
Simon N. (GM):OK you have advtg to hit her w attacks Q
Quillax:"Yes! It was she that tortured the lady there."
Simon N. (GM):Viorian is human, ca 5'10" :)
Quillax:"Not Karzoug."

Quillax:(I'm debating how cruel Q would be in this position..., because her next words may be very cruel, sorry about that...)
Simon N. (GM):Q roll dmg pls!

Simon N. (GM):"My eyes!"
ooc lunch break now, please do monologues but not attack/dmg
Quillax:OK :)
Malassandra:(Forgive me but I thought Karzoug was within the body of the lady storm giant?)
Claw:(so did I)
Malassandra:(If not who is this V and where is the storm giantess?)
Claw:I am a little concerned that Karzoug might just jump into another body even if we kill this body
its not like there is a shortage of followers around
Malassandra:I was going to try banishment on Karzoug but worries if hefails his saveall I'm doingis sendinghim back to the prime which is where he wants to be?
also a bit unsure why our elf has gone all funny?
Mal as a paladin sees no issue at all.
Quillax:(We know Karzoug was in this one's body - we spoke to him. I don't remember Karzoug speaking out of the Giantess... I'd have to search the logs)
Malassandra:this V I have no recollection of at all
only the storm giantess
Simon N. (GM):there was never any storm giantess
Malassandra:we had pictures shown to us
Simon N. (GM):viorian is human, i even posted her pic
riddleport mercenary
Malassandra:in bronze armour
Simon N. (GM):claw and quillax met her at Urglin
Eldrin Ætherwood:Eldrin isn't as invested in the battle you've neen fighting in all these years. He has just signed on, knowin that things bigger than him are threatening the world, but before this, he's only ever killed those who would try kill him. He has never ambushed someone, held them down, and stabbed them to death.
Malassandra:role play stuff then? Cool
Eldrin Ætherwood:Yeah
Claw:we havn't actually STABBED him yet
most slashed and burnt
Malassandra:and withy millions of ;lives in the balance Mal will be happy to do that all day long.
Eldrin Ætherwood:He was a teacher of Bladesingers for quitea few years after a long life of a travelling performer and swordsman in tournys. It's been a while since he has had to be so violent
Malassandra:So once she'/Karzoug is free band chopping lumps of us Eldrin is good to go?
Eldrin Ætherwood:I don't know. Ii'm roleplaying a character. Ill have to see how he feels from moment to moment. I as a person would have no worries killing people
Malassandra:cool with me
though I ferarfor usall
Eldrin Ætherwood:Personality wise i'm probably more like Claw. Less talky, more walky haha
Claw:saying 'I as a person would have no worries killing people' is a little concerning, i'm glad I don't live anywhere near you!
Eldrin Ætherwood:Hahaha not in real life!
Malassandra::D
Eldrin Ætherwood:I mean if i was playing myself in a game of dnd, my selft would kill a fictious character
Eldrins a little more sensitive lol
Claw:Claw lost his family and his tribe because of this ongoing war against the Rune Lords
He's well within his rights to be angry :P
Malassandra:Isn't this p;lace called somethinglike the pinnacle of evil? We'vebeen smashed to pieces tryingto gethere byGiants and other stuff and all with theintention of killing Karzoug?
Eldrin Ætherwood:Yup yup, fors ure.
I'm assuming this woman is nothing but a vessel right? She dies, and this K dude reforms or takes someone else?
Malassandra:If shedies M can raise her btI think the others havejhad trouble with her before? She's a nasty piece of work and had the sorceress chained up behind her thronee?
Eldrin Ætherwood:No doubt she seems pretty nasty.
Malassandra:(I',m pretty new too so don't know all the ins and outs)
Claw:they may not have been her own choice, or maybe K is still in control of her and double triking us
Malassandra:Wellshort ofasking Karzoug nicel to giveup I see little choice?
Claw:pretty much
Malassandra:We will have our hands full with some bloody big giants soon enough ifwe don't kill him
Claw:yep
Keelias messages arn't showing up btw
Malassandra:ohbugger
yup, thatsme
Simon N. (GM):test
Quillax:(I keep losing connection, so sorry if I miss some messages :) )
I thought Storm Giantess was just super big fan - not an actual acolyte
(We played to keep her on side to get into the fortress?)
:D
(OK, roleplay continues :) Q and Claw have fought human forms of RuneLords, see RuneLord destruction, been killed a few times :D )
Q snaps at Eldrin, "I had not thought that one who vowed to stop the RuneLords would shy away from that duty like a coward when it becomes unpalatable. Your death will not save anyone. This one's will stop Karzoug from crossing over an devouring the world."
Quillax:(was Eldrin's question being spoken or are you asking?)
(Seoni was chained behind the throne - she's hiding in a corner somewhere)
(Was that question from Eldrin an actual question? I'm losing track of what is OOC and what is in game :) )
(test)
Are you guys seeing this @19:43 my time
Simon N. (GM):can see that! :)
Malassandra:wow
Simon N. (GM):There was General Stom the fire giantess who fancies Claw.
But you never met a female storm giant.
Malassandra:who was the picture of last week then?The lady in the bronze armour
both James and I had the same delusion if not :D
Claw:Too many giants :P
Eldrin Ætherwood:Eldrin snaps back. "i didn't know who i was coming for, i didn't think it was some woman who has been controlled by this Runelord, forgive me if murdering a woman i don't know doesn't come as naturally!'
Question was from me, not as Eldrin
Malassandra:viorian, thats her. sozi hadher tapped asa storm giantess
my baD
Simon N. (GM):Chellan would be a REALLY big sword if she V was a storm giant!
Malassandra:makessensewith the scimitar now
Simon N. (GM):GM: I'm good to continue, we seem to be lacking Q though
Malassandra:her connection keeps droipping to roll20
@ James 1. Have you had tro0uble with this V lady befoe?
Simon N. (GM):I'll just Chillax (Quillax?) until we have Q back. :D
Malassandra::D
Eldrin Ætherwood:LOL
Smooth
Malassandra:shall I stick audio on? I'm on the big computer
Simon N. (GM):GM: The party never fought Viorian Dekanti, they visited her at Urglin (orc city) for a nice chat.
Malassandra:(In Kyles lair on the bloody floor like a contortionist!
Claw:yep
Simon N. (GM):They came via Wind Walk so the Kuchrimas knew to expect WW hence the earlier disaster!!
Claw:thats when we saw she had the sword of greed that had disappeared from Clank
Malassandra:ah
Claw:I was most pissed off -.-
Simon N. (GM):She only had storm giant bodyguards then, has now upgraded to Rune Giant.
Malassandra:I can try dispel magics, Rremove curses or Banishments but unsure if any of them will work?
Simon N. (GM):BTW you can all roll Investigation DC 20
Malassandra:need a 20 here then..
Claw:-1 inv
I'll roll for shits

Simon N. (GM):OK Eldrin, you recall hearing that Viorian Dekanti was commanding the army of Shalast marching on Magnimar, so it seems a bit odd she's also here in the Pinnacle of Avarice.
Eldrin Ætherwood:Nice, Chris. That's where i was going with next for what Eldrin may do. I'm going to do 1 of 2 things as planned
Malassandra:dcool
Claw:hmm
Eldrin Ætherwood:OK, i convey that to the party if i can

Claw:ah crap....
Quillax:(Male voice?)
Malassandra:where it saysKarzoug in bllue?
Simon N. (GM):Yup. Looking to your left you see Runelord Karzoug standing in the corridor.
Claw:Have Q and C hear this voice before?
Quillax:(ah crap indeed. I knew this felt like we were going to get left fielded today....)
Simon N. (GM):yes, via Mokmurian & Viorian
Malassandra:(she wasageneral in thevforces of evil)
Simon N. (GM):Karzoug: "“And so the fools have found me. I must applaud
your tenacity. You are much more persistent than the worms I thought you to be. You are more like
hungry maggots in your endless squirming and
writhing to get to the death that awaits you at the
core of your fate. I am that fate, maggots. I am
your death!”
Eldrin Ætherwood:" Now that seems like a Runelord"
Claw:does he have the sword in his hand?
Simon N. (GM):Viorian is still alive, but weakening. At the sound of Her Master's Voice she takes Inspiration and gives Claw a good kicking (no disad)

#end combat
She has nice armour & belt on her :)
Eldrin Ætherwood:"I suppose i had no choice.."
Claw:Since she was in Claw's hands he begins looting her corpse
no time for pleasentress
Malassandra:M heads east past where the shade of K was.
Quillax:Q turns and heads back into the device room, using a rough stone shape to ensure the doors stay open.
"Help me rip enough of this apart that they cannot use it anytime soon."
Malassandra:lookingdown the southern corridor using the corner as cover
Simon N. (GM):She wore +3 Plate Armour and her magic Belt of Might enhances STR +4 and CON +4!
Quillax:(Nice Belt!)
Eldrin Ætherwood:Very nice.
Simon N. (GM):Mal sees no one down the corridor, but in the distance she hears the sound of giants shouting orders.
Eldrin Ætherwood:Eldrin stands with Claw keeping an eye out.
Quillax:(explains why she could kick Claw hard enough in the nuts to hurt him :D )
Claw:Claw grabs what he can from V
Simon N. (GM):& moving into battle positions, it sounds like.
Belt requires attunement. You strip her charred sliced body of the golden armour.
Malassandra:Sheshoutsthisback to theothers. Keeping,max cover
Claw:Claw moves Siona(s?) into the room and starts destroying the equipment, if he hears anything coming from the doorway he'll head there
Simon N. (GM):Seoni
Quillax:Q hurriedly yanks important looking pieces out of the machine, taking EE form to yank things faster
Simon N. (GM):Claw gives the Leng Device some good wacks, but it rapidly reforms - he cannot permanently destroy it, but it may take some time to fully self-repair.
Quillax:she shoves some of the pieces into Claw's bag of holding, then smashes up a few more with her fists. It just needs to not work for now.
Simon N. (GM):(It's a major artifact, think Sword of Kas/Eyeof Vecna level)
Claw:ah
yea, we ain't destroying that anytime soon
Simon N. (GM):GM: As you do this...
Quillax:Since Q can't create a portal big enough to consume the entire device, temporarily busting it up will have to suffice for the moment.
Unless someone has another one of those backpacks...
Claw:Claw actually has 4 ;)
Quillax:(not a bag of holding, the backpack that if you put into a bag of holding fucks the world up :D )
Simon N. (GM):With each blow the image
in the window shifts, growing distorted and warped. Then the image vanishes altogether,
transforming into a gut-churning vortex of spinning

Claw:ah, a portable hole
Quillax:"Good enough for the moment," Q decides. "Then eyes V's body... too bad I don't have major image anymore but I do have alter shape!"
Q concentrates and takes on V's form.

Simon N. (GM):The
Thing from Beyond Time that emerges from the 4 corners of the room is a 14-foot-long creature
capable of shifting in and out of reality. The creature is
only vaguely shaped like a hound; its feet end in large
razor-sharp talons and the enormous maw set under
its bulging black eyes is filled not only with weirdly
Simon N. (GM):transparent teeth, but a long bladed tongue capable of
lapping away the minds of those it cuts...
GM: The Hound of Tindalos looks at you.
You look good to eat.
Claw:Claw stares it down and approaches

Blink
3rd Level Transmutation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Self
Components: V, S
Duration: 1 minute
Roll a d20 at the end of each of your turns for the duration of the spell. On a roll of 11 or higher, you vanish from your current plane of existence and appear in the Ethereal Plane (the spell fails and the casting is wasted if you were already on that plane). At the start of your next turn, and when the spell ends if you are on the Ethereal Plane, you return to an unoccupied space of your choice that you can see within 10 feet of the space you vanished from. If no unoccupied space is available within that range, you appear in the nearest unoccupied space (chosen at random if more than one space is equally near). You can dismiss this spell as an action.
While on the Ethereal Plane, you can see and hear the plane you originated from, which is cast in shades of gray, and you can't see anything there more than 60 feet away. You can only affect and be affected by other creatures on the Ethereal Plane. Creatures that aren't there can't perceive you or interact with you, unless they have the ability to do so.

"Take this!!"
Simon N. (GM):It screeeches as Eldrin slashes & Q cuddles it. It dies.
Malassandra:phew
Quillax:Q takes human form. "We should run."
She grabs Claw's arm and drags him after her.
Claw:"where to? there are a ton of giants back the way we came"
Quillax:The hole."
Simon N. (GM):The machine stops fizzling. "SHUTDOWN COMPLETE. REBOOTING in 37 years 185 days 21 hours 56 minutes 7 seconds."
Eldrin Ætherwood:"I have never seen anything like that.."
Claw:Claw shrugs her off and scoops up Seoni
Quillax:"Oh. That's not so bad," she says. "At least that will keep Karzoug from using it for 37 years."
Simon N. (GM):GM: OK you just shut down the Leng Device, cutting Karzoug off from his proper army.
Quillax:She goes and sticks her head through the small hole in the wall and looks down.
Malassandra:Mal isstill keen on finding K and killingbhim
Quillax:To see what she can see
Before she does that
Simon N. (GM):You all get an Epic Boon, either +2 to a stat or a Feat.
Quillax:She uses her Alter Self at will to look like V
Malassandra:nice
Quillax:Then she looks out the hole.
Eldrin Ætherwood:Oooh nice! My first boon!!
Claw:Anything special about the armour from V?
Malassandra:=3
Claw:I know the belt needs attunement
Malassandra:+3
Simon N. (GM):Q looks out the hole. No one on the exit ramp.
Malassandra:Malmay find the armour very useful
Simon N. (GM):The giants seem to be mustering for Gotterdammerung in the main throne hall.
judging by the noise.
V's armour is regular +3 plate, no attunement needed.
Claw:oo, +3 though, very nce
Quillax:Right - do we want to search this place and deal with Giants or run away?
Claw:and the belt?
Eldrin Ætherwood:I need some light armor bad, haha im wearing standard clothes
Simon N. (GM):Belt needs Attunement, gives +4 STR +4 CON
Malassandra:+4 to str and con
Claw:I'm pretty good in the belt department, so someone else can have it :P
Malassandra:If we can find K won't killing him release the giants from thrall?
Quillax:No, they aren't thralled, but they are power sources to him
Malassandra:Both belt55and armourwould be ace for Mabut I'm not greedy
Eldrin Ætherwood:Belt isn't fantastic for me to wear, don't need the str and i've already got an amulet of health on to help with Hp
Quillax:(Q can't use armour anyway, and Mal and Eldrin can decide belt between them)
Simon N. (GM):Drape-wrappred Seoni is clinging tight to Claw. "My hero!" :)
Quillax:She isn't in human form enough to take advantage of that honus
Malassandra:so we still have to avoid killing giants
Quillax:*bonus
"Unless we can trick them"
Claw:Claw smiles at Seoni
Malassandra:worth a try. Maybe hold them off while we search the other doors?
Quillax:Q casts Alter Self and settles into V's form.
She tests out her voice. "How do I sound?"
Claw:I'll need a bit of healing after that dog
Quillax:Q hands him a bag of potions. "Have at it."
"Can you manage without any restoration? Otherwise, I can use the spells."
Eldrin Ætherwood:"Youre looking a little worse for wear there Claw, that thing must hit like a storm"
Claw:"I really remember her screaming in agony more, but pretty good i guess"
Simon N. (GM):GM: Q now looks like V in Q's clothes.
The spell does not alter clothes/gear.
Claw:I'm at 191/385
Malassandra:(so we're allokay for masl to getarmour and belt? She can swap a beltof fire giant str for it if that helps?)
Claw:I've got tons of pots :P
just pointing out
Eldrin Ætherwood:I'm happy Mal
Quillax:(How does armour work for druids? I know it's no good for them, but does it hurt?)
*Metal armour
Simon N. (GM):Druids have a taboo vs metal armour. If you are not prof you can't cast in armour AFAIK. But you can still Wildshape then cast in Wildshaped form. I'll say if you wear it more than 1 hour you get 1 level Exhaustion.
Quillax:"Give me the sword of Greed, and her armour," Q says.
Malassandra:sure
Claw:PHP "Druid will not wear arm,our or shields made of metal"
Simons call really
Quillax:She widens the hole in the wall. "And keep out of sight. I can't believe I am going to put on metal. I must be crazy."
Simon N. (GM)::D
Claw:Claw hands the items over
Quillax:"Wish me luck. I might die or I might buy us time."
Malassandra:m keeps out ofsight
Quillax:She pulls on the armour, makes sure her face is settled as V and hefts the sword.
Claw:Claw does his best to wrap up Seoni and hands her some healing potions
Malassandra:"Goiod luck.You won't die alone, I'll be at ypour side."
shoutifyou needme
Simon N. (GM):The armour feels uncomfortable. But Q certainly looks like V now!
Putting on Belt too?
Quillax:Q clears her throat. "If you have to get out, use the hole - it will drop you to the lower level, but keep out of sight. I'm hoping to send them on a wild chase."
(Is the belt obvious?)
(would it be noticed that it is missing?)
Simon N. (GM):no it fits under armour
Quillax:Then no to the belt
Simon N. (GM):could do w/out it
ok
Quillax:She wiggles her fingers at the others - lets out a roar of pure rage and storms down to the throne room.
Simon N. (GM):GM: So everyone else stays by the hole while Q goes to deal with the giant army in the throne hall?
Quillax:"Guards! Where the hell are you?"
Malassandra:good luck!
Quillax:"They've escaped! After them you fools!"
Malassandra:Mal hides beside the small door listening.
Eldrin Ætherwood:Eldrin ducks back behind cover
Claw:Claws going to need to drink 194hps worth of healing potions :P
Simon N. (GM):Q/V stomps down the Halls of Avarice back to the throne room.
(you can assume 7 hp per heal potion Claw, tick em off)
Claw:thxs smn
Quillax:(Here's hoping the expertise in deception comes in handy, otherwise, she's going to end up as a small smear on the ground)
Eldrin Ætherwood:Eldrin Whispers "wish i could help you out there big guy, i was never very talented with healing magic"
Malassandra:(Mal can heal C;law 75 points but let's see how Kreelia does first?
Simon N. (GM):Heading into the Throne Hall, Q sees the two 40' tall rune giants near the throne, to her right down the hall 3 storm giants & 7 cloud giants hefting huge mauls.
Claw:@Mal, its fine, I used the potions, save your spells
Simon N. (GM):The hall doors behind them are open.
Quillax:"They escaped down the ramp to the outside! Get after them! I do not want them to escape, Lord Karzoug will be very displeased if they do!"
"Go!"
Simon N. (GM):As are the double doors behind the further Rune Giant.
Quillax:She hefts the Sword at them in emphasis
Simon N. (GM):Q roll Intimidate pls

Simon N. (GM):Q hears mocking laughter from her right down the hall. From in front of her, through the far doors. From behind her...
Turning, looking between the male Rune Giant's legs, she sees Karzoug looking back at her, grinning in triumph. "Your friends may escape through your little hole. But you, Quillax. You are mine!"
GM: OK stopping there today! >:D
Quillax:Gah!!
