C2 Session 19

Koin and Sun begin approaching Whitefang, who awaits them on the beach with his soldiers

Henry and Xodon are preparing to handle a new wave of pirates

Daemon and Poco are taking care of other enemies in the city

Most of the guard have retreated into the city to protect the general population

All Whitefang has to do is push forward slowly and the city will be won

Up on a hill almost a thousand feet away, Xodon sees Poco wheeling towards the beach in his wheelchair

Koin begins sprinting across the rooftops and down onto the main street and smashes his oil of slipperiness onto the ground, coating the spot of impact down to the beach in oil

Whitefang and Sun walks towards each other

Whitefang slams his anchor axe into the sand, creating a large cloud of dust

He fires his harpoon through the cloud, but misses Sun

More soldiers begin rushing uphill into the city, which is odd since the guards are nowhere to be seen and attacking uphill is not a good idea

Suddenly guards emerge and kill the front waves

Wizards emerge from the ships and summon trebuchets and soldiers to operate them

Henry sees the trebuchets, and remembers his dad taking him to a council meeting

Henry stood outside but overheard his dad talking about a new oil called basilisk oil, which would be highly effective when used during a siege

Henry knows that if you get covered in basilisk oil, you will be turned completely into stone

Barrels of the oil launch at them, Henry and Xodon barely dodge it, but Henry gets spattered with oil and gets stuck and his legs begin hardening

Henry notices the dragolians on horses rushing towards him, and as they get closer he hears them screaming the word traitor at him

One tries to attack him but Henry shields it

The oil is affecting both sides of the battle heavily

Xodon notices a significantly more adorned mage stepping off of Whitefang’s ship

The mage flies up and pulls out a tome, beginning to chant and summon magical shapes, it is not necessarily a spell, but it is a magical effect that looks like it will take awhile

Xodon shoots an arrow at one of the soldiers on a horse, and it strikes his neck and he goes limp, leaving the horse to run rampant

Xodon steps out and stops the horse, unmounting the dead body and getting on the horse

The other mages move up and one looks at Henry, then casts a spell at him, but he shields it

Another mage shoots a ray of frost at Xodon but it misses

Henry teleports off the main road and dispels the basilisk magic on his legs, and the stone turns to dust

Koin starts sprinting

Whitefang swings his anchor axe at Sun, hitting him hard

Sun tries to throw sand at Whitefang, but fails

Whitefang knocks Sun off his feet and points his harpoon at him

Sun stands up and immediately begins looking very angry

A white aura appears around him, and tells Whitefang that his anchor axe swing was a good hit

Sun rushes at him with a scimitar attack and hits

Xodon begins moving under the main mage to shoot at him

He shoots an arrow at the mage, who has to take the hit

Trebuchets fire off, and Koin prepares to deflect it, and does so successfully, sending a barrel of basilisk oil hurtling towards the beach

It hits the trebuchet, spreading oil to the pirates but missing the wizards

One of the ten trebuchets is now disabled for the time being

Wizards try to repair the trebuchet but are too weak

Another wizard teleports towards Henry and casts a gust of wind

Henry is blasted 60 feet into the air, hitting a few things on the way down, but still living easily

Angered, Henry teleports onto the roof, and throws a fire bolt at him, hitting for a small amount of damage

The main mage nears completion of his ritual, as the magical geometry begins stacking

Koin moves under the grand wizard, noticing the tattoo of two stacked M’s, remembering the same mark on the more powerful mages that attacked Thera

Whitefang fires his harpoon at Sun, but he deflects it

Sun attacks with his scimitars, and punches him viciously

A trebuchet fires at Henry, but it backfires and the barrel explodes on itself

A wizard throws a witch bolt at him but misses

Henry laughs before being struck in the back with an acidic arrow

Cavalry rush at Xodon so he can’t stop the ritual

They hit him hard with their swords

Xodon tries to fire an arrow but misses

The grand mage completes his ritual, and twelve circles stacked slam into the ground, forming a large magical circle filled with intricate designs

All of the stone bodies begin to glow, and they all explode into rubble

The rocks begin moving towards to the center of the circle, forming a stone body, and a 30 foot tall stone golem comes to life

Henry throws a chromatic orb at one of the wizards and bloodies him

Koin does things

Whitefang hits Sun with his anchor axe

Sun attacks Whitefang, bloodying him

Xodon rushes to stab a straggling pirate, and kills him

The wizard Henry hit shoots another gust of wind at him, but Henry counterspells it

The stone golem runs at Koin, stepping on the building and attempting to grab him

He grabs him, but Koin writhes out of its grip and begins climbing it

Henry fire bolts the wizard and kills him

Koin punches the stone golem and it doesn’t do anything, but he looks at Sun on the beach and feels inspired, his fist glowing platinum

Sun hits Whitefang, hurting him heavily

He breaks his ankle, but whitefang doesn’t fall

He dislocates his shoulder and breaks multiple other bones trying to disable his anchor axe

Whitefang laughs and pulls a rope in the sand, firing a trebuchet at Sun, crushing him with stone

He begins limping towards his ship, and the pirates begin retreating

Koin is ripping into the golem, and Xodon rides in to help

Wizards come in and one sees Henry and starts casting at him

They both cast gust of wind at him, and he counterspells one and gets blown back slightly by the other

Daemon appears and casts an eighth level spell at the Golem, bloodying it

Henry casts a green mist on the two wizards below him, and rays of light shoot down and instantly kill them

Koin ignites his sword and slashes the golem

Whitefang stands among his trebuchets and signals them to fire at the city and level it

Suddenly all of the trebuchets lock up and break as Poco wheels up and introduces himself

Pirates from every side begin rushing at Poco, but bear traps spring up all over the place and lock them in place

Poco pulls a rope form under the sand and dozens of ropes pull tight and all of the trebuchets and bear traps are sprung up into the air and compiled into an amalgamation of metal, wood, and flesh

The stone golem starts slam attacking Koin who is on his head, smacking him two times onto the ground

Henry begins sprinting full speed to meet up with the rest of the group

Koin slashes at the golem

Whitefang shoots his harpoon at Poco pulling him towards him

Poco is smiling as Whitefang says he should be able to dispose of him easily

Whitefang asks why he’s smiling, poco says it’s ironic that he doesn’t follow his own advice to not show up to a fight without backup

Sun streaks at Whitefang with scales instead of fur and flaming platinum claws with a red dragon mark on his back

Sun knocks him out with one punch

He is ready to pounce on him again, but stands calm and returns back to his normal form before collapsing on the sand

Daemon walks up to Whitefang, doing the same to him as he did to Henry, then begins healing him

Poco says that thanks to Daemon, Whitefang will now be working for the silver masks

Poco asks him what the armada is doing, and he says that they are attacking Auding

Says they are in no condition to fight, but the Leonins should have it under control

They cannot fight the battle of Auding and gather their crew at the same time, and their main objective is to get their crew

Sun confirms that the leonins should handle it perfectly

Poco tells Whitefang that he has ruined the city he loves, and tells him that he owes Poco a city

Says he’s thinking of something northern in Dragol

Poco tells them to get to amassing their crew

Says that at least now they have a captain, as he points at Whitefang

Daemon says they must get going to get their crew as they are a nomadic people

Sun begins tending to the tied up dragolians and the general population begin reappearing and helping clean up

They set off down a path into the wilderness outside of Fio

They travel through the day and settle in the night, and Daemon goes to sleep while Xodon takes first watch

Xodon doesn’t notice anything, but gets to observe a beautiful blazing sunset

Henry also doesn’t notice anything, but sits for awhile while feeling a bit inadequate to those around him

Daemon and Poco and Sun are powerful, going toe to toe with Whitefang

Xodon and Koin are taking down multiple enemies and golems

He feels the need for more power, but looks at the sea and the feeling goes away for a second before he goes back to sleep

Koin notices nothing on his watch and they all wake up

Daemon casts his teleport spell, and they all are transported safely to the forest

There are many large green trees surrounding them, and a natural feel to the environment

Xodon recognizes the forest as the one he woke up in

Daemon says the people they are meeting are a bit barbaric, but he has a spell that will let them speak any language

Says their culture is a bit strange, and he has spoken to their leader before, and they have agreed to help them as the three of them prove capable to their standards

They want to put them through a trial, and if they survive/succeed, they will help them

He says they are ready to meet them

He casts a spell and pushes them back into a hole and onto a stick raft going down a watery canal

The raft hits an odd corner, and Koin slips off the raft and under the rapid water

They continue down the cascading river

They continue on for several more thousands of feet until the river comes to an end and the raft stops

They look around and don’t see anyone around

Xodon wades around in the water, eventually going underneath the surface to look around, and senses movement but they are just small fish

Henry creates an arcane eye and looks around for half an hour but doesn’t find anything

Xodon hasn’t come back yet

Henry begins swimming up the river and suddenly reveals rows of vine that he can push over

He goes through the hole, and falls 30 feet into a secondary pool of water, where he sees Xodon 100 feet or so drying off

Koin walks in from a side hall and stares at them angrily for ditching him

They spend the rest of the day moving through the caverns

Eventually, they wander into a room where they see the ceilings are covered in the same viny surface Henry saw before

After awhile they find a wall that has a 3 foot hole in it just above the water, with some water pouring into it

They all enter the tunnel which goes down about 30 feet, and the water is significantly less, but still present

There are huts and buildings scattered around and frog people walking around

They notice dozens of small tunnels going in and out of the small village

The frog people begin playing drums and lighting torches, walking towards them

There is a face carved into the wall, and next to it is a yellow frog slapping its sides and speaking to the others

Henry casts the tongues spell on Xodon and he hears that the yellow frog is talking about them being there for the trial to gain their aid in sailing to Dragol

Xodon thanks them for welcoming them into their home

He asks if they are ready for the trial of the waters

Before they can answer, a whirlpool appears and the yellow frog begins casting a ninth level spell, saying to let the trial begin

The floor disappears, and they fall into a void
