Playthings of the Gods

"Lunk stop him before he burns us out of shelter and lets everyone know where we are! Why don't you worry about toruring the doctor and not making trouble that we don't need." Olothros walks to the doorway and waits for Lunk.

[cheddarmonger]

"Oooh, warm!  Maybe we can camp here!"  Lunk ponders helping Will with the spontaneous heating scheme

[Custom_Hobby]

Olothros Shakes his head. Why do I bother Olothros takes the Torch and leaves to check their surroundings.

[Bodhi]

Any luck? Are the plants dry enough to get us a burning bonanza?

[Fabian]

Olothoros leaves with a makeshift "torch" that will probably last 10 minutes. Will and Lunk set fire to a bowl of dead plants, whic starts smoking away and crackling with small flames, but without management and tending it will be a very poor campfire.

[cheddarmonger]

"Bah, this is no fun.  Lets grab the doc and head outta here."  Lunk searches for where he dropped Dr. Ashy, and scoops him up following after Orthy

[Custom_Hobby]

"Oh you brought him. You could have left him with Gaius." Olothros keeps looking around

[Bodhi]

"GAAAH!" Will kicks at the poor fire and rushes after Lunk

[Fabian]

Gaius hangs his head in a weary manner. We're in a dark, cold, dangerous hole and they're acting like a group of noviates on a holiday! he thinks to himself with exasperation.

"Look," he calls after them, "Surely we can gather together some of this foliage and with the wood we have build a fire? Lunk, your skills would of immeasurable value at this moment in time. Sorry... really handy right now. Will, rather than having childish tantrums, why don't you stand watch whilst Olothoros.... Ahem! Olothoros... where is he now?" Gaius peers out of the doorway, rather peeved to be lacking an audience member.

OOC: so what does the Elf see on his quick recon?

[Fabian]

Olothoros hears Gaius wittering on about something as he makes his way round the building. To his disappointment, there is nothing remarkable in the overall layout or design of the building to mark it out from the rest of the dead city. Except for its large size, it is unremarkable, formed of the same stone and constructed in the same way as th eother buildings.

As he gets round again to the door he can see the others milling around, with Gaius attempting to provide a bit of direction and leadership. You hear him say something about, "We have to rest, for one thing, my feet are killing me. Here's as good a place as any."

[Custom_Hobby]

"There doesn't seemt to be anything remarkable. Gaius can you help me extract this poision? we should set up a watch schedule." Olothros sits by the fire and puts the make shift torch back into it. He sets Kimodo close enough to the fire to feel the warmth but not be harmed by it.

[Fabian]

OOC: Mike, please make a Knowledge (arcana) check, I'll do the same for Gaius in a bit.

"It does look nasty," says Gaius as he sits his elven companion down and inspects the injury, "What were those things? I heard you call them Vargooleys or something?"

[Custom_Hobby]

Olothros' Knowledge Arcana check = 30

Olothros tells Gaius everything he knows about the Vargouilles again. "This is a nasty wound my friend and ca not heal until the poison is removed.I want to get some rest so I can replenish my spells. I think we are going to need then here."

[Fabian]

OOC: Oh my freaking gawd! What a check result!

Olothoros remembers that the delay poison spell will allow magical healing to function and that a neutralize poison spell will allow magical and natural healing to work.
