Chapter 7: Blue Sky, Green Earth

Jul 29, 2025 9:55 am
You are nearing the fork in the river when in the distance you can see a circle of ancient rectangular stone monoliths. Hundreds of small piles of stones and bones wait outside the gathering circle, each painted or carved with dots, spirals, and lines.
OOC:
It will be a DC 20 Religion check to identify the monoliths.

As Artesia and Tomas gets closer to study the monoliths, they suddenly see a Griffon swoop down from on high. It snatches them in their claws and carries them towards the southwest. As suddenly as they were carried up, they suddenly find themselves back on the ground. It must have been a vision.

As you do, two creatures float out of the ground. "Return him!" they moan in an etheral voice.
OOC:
Artesia and Tomas, roll me a DC 22 Basic Will save. If you fail, you take the rolled damage (half on success, double on a crit fail).

Then you can all roll initiative. Anyone who beats their initiative of 22 can act immediately.

OOC:
Yes it does. But do keep in mind that you do not do the extra 8 damage from the 2 action version. It states: "If you’re healing a living creature, increase the Hit Points restored by 8."

Artesia focuses, bringing to bear the holy light and power of Pulura!
OOC:
So, if I'm understanding right, the spell automatically heightens, which means that she does 2d8 damage. She spends three actions to cast, so it affects both specters.

Artesia sends healing energy around her, healing Tomas and damaging the creatures.

One of the spiritual beings flies forward and as it does, rocks and dirts start whirling in the air around Artesia and Tomas, pelting them with rocks.

Tomas is able to withstand the onslaught, but Artesia gets pelted with rocks. (Artesia 11 damage)

Tomas moves closer, and the spirit reacts by pummeling him with more stones. (13 damage)

"Return him!" the other sprit calls out and moves closer, before sending rocks flying, attacking everyone except Iroven.

Tomas raises his shield, stones bouncing off harmlessly. While Artesia is ready this time, and dodges the stones easily. Similarly Koram and Haitih is at the edge of the telekinetic storm, and can merely step out of the way.

Iroven moves up, and the other poltergeist sends a blast towards him as a reaction. The stone hit him in the side (17 damage).

Finally up close, he lets loose with his sword, it connects, flying through the halfway intangible creature. It seems to hurt, though far less than it would a corporeal creature.
OOC:
They have a reaction whenever someone strides within 10 feet of them, though both have spent their reaction for now so Koram, Haitih and Artesia can ignore it. The sword do less damage, you can tell they have a resistance of 5. The mentioned characters are up.

Haitith strides forward and sends out his electric breath. The first is unable to dodge its effect, while the other, partially covered by the first one is able to avoid most of it. Though both of them seem to shake off the damage as easily as physical damage.

Luckily Artesia is quick to send positive energy around her, both healing her allies as well as burning your foes. While they are able to shake off the worst effect of the blast, they scream in pain.

One of the poltergeist sends a new flurry of stones around itself. Iroven is able to withstand the onslaught, but Tomas is only saved from a critical wound by his shield (5 damage).

Artesia takes a big rock in the side (21 damage) as does Koram (19 damage), while Haitith dodges.

Then it follows up with another stone thrown directly at Iroven, though it misses him.
OOC:
Artesia was able to get you all back to full health before the next wave of attacks.

Iroven raised his shield and then swung viciously at the spirit that was flanked by Tomas.
OOC:
1st action - raise shield, 2-3rd action - vicious swing. I think its a critical and it activates the critical specialization effect for sword. Target is offguard upto my next turn. So, that's like 24 damage?

With the flanking provided by Iroven, Tomas is able to stab one of the poltergeist twice, and while it is somewhat resistant to the damage, he strikes hard enough that it still feels it.

The other poltergeist sends another blast of stones around it. Iroven takes some stone in his back (11 damage), as does Tomas (15 damage) and Koram (10 damage).

The rest avoids the worst of it.

Iroven isn’t one to be outshined by Tomas, and swings out with a mighty swing that critically damages the creature. As it is struck, it dissipates, leaving behind a small goo of ectoplasm.

Artesia sends another healing wave, hurting the remaining poltergeist and bringing strength back to her allies.
