21.07.2020 - Thunder - Attack on Rockwater mansion

Seb isn't here, but we'll play anyway (He disappeared into another dimension

• Thunder runs in, pretending to be a guard, and convinces Rockwater to come with her to the balcony instead (intruders coming up the stairs). (Also insightful fighting)
• M and S climbs up on the balcony, S cutting the rope
• Rockwater shouts to a guard: "Get pot!", then turns invisible
• Coty Misty Steps after the guard
• M storms in, seeing only guards, demanding from disguised T "Where is Rockwater?!"
• The last guard in the room, tells T to "guard our lady at all costs!" Then buffs T
• The guard getting "The pot", runs into a room, and pulls out an old crone on a leash
• T tries to tell M and S that Rockwater is out in the hallway now, without blowing her cover. It somehow works
• S manages to triangulate her position from T and Locate Creature, and strikes her with Spiritual Weapon, but she retains Invisibility
• She breaks out of Slow
• The leash is made out of songsteel (Coty notices)
• Coty casts Cone of Cold
• T uses this to run into the hallway and "Get behind cover"… right where Rockwater is. Revealing her position
• The old crone, nearly dead now walks up to Rockwater, who yanks the leash away from the guard
• Rockwater tells her to get them out of here
• "Get us down to the basement"
• They're gone
• Guard in hallway tells Guard!Thunder to deal with S, while he deals with Coty
• T: "There are enemies below. We need to support the Lady in the BASEMENT"
• Then runs downstairs to tell two guards there that the enemies above have been dealt with, and that Rockwater needs them in the back garden
• M kills the guard upstaris
• T runs into the basement
• She hears faint whispering behind the barrels on the opposite side of the room
• Tries to tell the offical-looking guard there to go to the back gardens
• He doesn't believe it
• T says she has an important report that she can only tell the Lady, but he demands she let him relay it
• She finally convinces him by referencing Rockwater's Powerful Allies ™ .
• He tells her to og then. "You know the way"
• The whispers are getting louder
• T notice two barrels having been moved regularly, and moves one
• The old crone is preforming some kind of ritual, and there is another voice in the room
• Coty is heading to the basement in dire wolf form
• M kills the final guard upstairs
• As T goes into the room to shoot the crone, she fails a wisdom save (Phantasmal killer) and her sister appears before her, bleeding from every orifice. Begging her to run.
• T drops her shortbow on the ground and bolts (using feline agility)
• Her flight takes her straight in front of S, who sees a guard.
• Then she saves from the spell
• S still gets hits on her, before she can pull off the hat
• T carefully steps away from S and rushes to throw a dagger at the crone, which barely misses due to Mage Armor
• T promises Rockwater "You will die for this" (For using her sister's image like that)
• M tries to throw a trident but it falls on Thunder (not injuring, but whacking)
• The crone finishes the spell, looking pleadingly at Rockwater who assures her "It's ok pot. We'll step through the portal. We just have to leave it open for now"
• Arnini has now reappeared on the lawn, clothes singed, and with possible lasting mental dmg
• Both enter the circle and vanish
• The circle is still glowing
• T warns the others that the circle is still active and that she's going in
• She chugs the mystery potion, it enlarges her, and she steps into the circle disappearing
• M kills the basement guard
• As he dies, he chockes out "The oath prevails"
• Although he's dead, his body still stands
• M runs of towards the circle
• The rest notice that the guard captain has a tattoo covering his torso(?), and (something something) green…
• M and C runs into the circle, but the others hesitates
• Through the portal:
• We appear in a small room (T moved on before the others appeared)
• Everything is eerily quiet, hallway is covered in green eagle symbols

Plan: Find Rockwater and kill her!
