Blackport - Cave of Allycs
Leshanna: The cult leader is the one who just fell into the water, so you can't see him from this angle. You send an arrow at a cultist TWIIIPA at one of the cultists, which gets him in the shoulder. The cult leader struggles in the waves! 4
It's a coinflip! odd for the cultists, even for Rattles! 4
Rattles got a coin of fate! A cultists beats him while he's down Attack: 5 Damage: 1, while another throws a dagger at you! Attack: 6 Damage: 4
The waves seem to recede for a moment, much more than usual...
Blackport - Powder Swamp:
Yaw: Taking a closer look...it seems that these coins are dated to be from years ago. Your no expert, but you recall there was a way to keep coins fairly clean by rubbing them with acid. Considering your feet haven't melted off yet, your not standing in any right now, but at at one point or another, they must've come into contact with it. What to investigate next...
OOC:
WBFisher: Oh, sorry, you'll investigate them one at a time, so pick one, then roll investigation, or i guess you could just keep what you rolled already and then pick. You've collected 1 PP, 8 GP, 11 SP, 15 CP so far.

Orina & Jogs:
"Well, howdy there. Orina was it? Any friend of Jogs is a friend of mine, we're used to far stranger guests anyway." The father comes forward. "Bout time they come around, those darn crows do nothing for us out here. Good thing it happened around this time of year anyway. Here, why don't you come inside, you must've walked a long way. I'm suprised you haven't caught a cold."
"I'm not letting go until I get to lift the hammer." Ethan pouts. The mother replies, "Sounds like someone wants to skip dessert, then." She barely manages to pry him off jogs leg, before he clings to his mothers leg instead.
Greenport - Mountain Peak:
SHECHW, another bolt of light streaks through him, and a flare of energy pulses around him from your hex. He struggles in pain "ERRRAA", and he is finding it difficult to yell due to the tight vines.
??? Damage: 29
The raven imps swoop down past you, attacking the druid! Attack: 14 Damage: 7Attack: 22 Damage: 4
WHAM! with one holy swing, the demon is vaniquished! 50 XP. It's body begins to melt into ichor.
"Good, looks like more capable then I thought...mostly." He goes down to the scatterd demon body parts, and begins collecting them into a sack. "Help me get these, would you?"

Ugh, forget it. If you trust my judgement, take the new rolls, otherwise just decide for yourself what got rolled. I think that's the fairest way to do it.
Orina and Jogs | Outer Corvidae - Macgullickson Farm:
Jogs chuckles as Ethan is peeled away and follows the family inside the home, Orina following behind. She takes a seat at their table as if this has happened a few times before and gets comfortable, creaking around in the wooden structure. She sets her hammer down leaning against the table and whispers to Ethan, "Go ahead," much to the consternation of the parents. With the child distracted, she asks, "Your fence? Did something do that?"
Leshanna sends another arrow in to strike at the same cultist as before...
To hit: 17 Damage: 10
She continues moving towards the entrance to the cave...
(Leshanna should be no where near dagger range by this point I would imagine. She has made 3 move actions to get back towards the entrance, with the only requirement that she stays where she can shoot at the cultists. How long is this cave, and how much further to the stairs down to the main path the cultists are on? Are the cultists moving with her?)
SHECHW, another bolt of light streaks through him, and a flare of energy pulses around him from your hex. He struggles in pain "ERRRAA", and he is finding it difficult to yell due to the tight vines.
??? Damage: 29
The raven imps swoop down past you, attacking the druid! Attack: 14 Damage: 4Attack: 7 Damage: 6
(Okay, got it, so how does this pan out? How much damage does the druid take and what even is that thing, "??? Damage: 29"? Was that an attack roll from the dark figure on top of the crater?)
"Probably get used to it. No matter, we have business." Ulrich tucks his medallion out of sight as he looks around. "Let's look around while we wait for the Archbishop. See if we can find someone to tell us about the ODs. With any luck we're expected and someone is waiting for us."
He leads them around the building onto the street. He takes in what he can of the settlement, including the building they're next to. He tries to ascertain which building could house the one in charge.
Zacharias puts his flail and shield away and looks down for a second at the doctor before bending down and helping as best he can. "What are you collecting these for?"
Yaw: Your not sure what this cone is, but whatever it is, it's stuck in the ground good. It is ribbed going down into the ground, and it reminds you of certain sea-shells.
Blackport - Cave of Allycs
Leshanna: Indeed you are far out of the daggers range, the cultist threw the dagger at essentially at the ceiling. You arrow flies into the cultist, and he is slain! 25 XP
Rattles struggles with the cultist. spraying poison in his face. 13 The cultist hacks and coughs, but is undeterred. He stands up and makes a break for the exit! The cultist swipes at him 151But it only nicks him.
Rafon's Run Settlement:
Ulrich: As you round the corner, a horrible sight beseechs your eyes. A river of red and yellow is running through the street. You can see bodies, three from here strewn about it, the same liquid running out of them and adding to the flow. The town is eerily silent...from what was said, this was an urgent report, what your seeing here is unprecedented.
Dula turns to you. "Is it...are we really too late? There's no way everyone is gone, we should check the buildings." There's no telling what you'll encounter here. No wonder the Archbishop called you. The main building is down, it is most like the large of house of a baron, which is also the direction this brook of bile is streaming from.
Mackgullickson's:
Orina and Jogs: Ethan tries his darndest to lift the hammer, but he and only lift the handle a few inches. It's better than last time.
They have some stew being prepped on the stove, smells wonderful, which they are pouring and setting out for you, looks pretty good, usually has more carrots, though. "Yes, someone, or something was rooting through our fields last night. Luckily, some folks was walking by that spotted em, and told us that they would find someone to help. I imagine that whats got you here. Ever since then, we've been having trouble sleeping, and people we've talked to have seen something roaming their fields at night as well."
OOC:
Pertuie: I don't want to be fudging dice rolls, so you can either take the rolls in this post if you want or just say how you want the attacks to pan out. If you want, you could cause both of the attacks to crit, or both of them to miss. Does it not say that the post has potentially manipulated dice rolls? I don't want people to think I'm being unfair.

(I don't want to just decide what will happen next. I think that isn't fun, that's why I quoted your last post because I assumed we'd be using those, new rolls, which would be:
The ones you just quoted were very different, but feel free to use those instead, I just wanna know what happens next, and what is the current position of my character, so I can judge from there on what will I do.)
Zacharias: "It's just a hunch, but I'm pretty sure these have been summoned up by someone. If we wait a bit, we can see if it vanishes, and then we can do a bit of scrying." You pick up one of the creatures arms. "Be careful, it's still alive, obviously. If my hunch is correct, you will certainly have quite a bit more work to do, if you wish, or at least I will."

Greenport - Mountain Peak:
Noldeme: The druid is swarmed on both sides, their beaks pecking through his Barkskin. He tries to maintain his focus through the pain: 10 and 21 to concentrate, but the Entangle fizzles!
The poison flows through him: 13 against 8 And 10 against 4
He is barely standing!
He swings his staff at one of the imps Attack: 9 Damage: 5
The man at the top of the crater retreats, and runs out of sight!

I inspect the cone. It doesn't look like anything I have ever seen before. Some sort of mollusk maybe? Probably best to leave it alone. I move on to the cylinder.

Yaw: On close inspection, it appears to be hollow, and made of some sort of combination of wood and metal. It budges slightly in the mud...it might be movable, but quite heavy. Reminds you of a cannon barrel. As your inspecting the barrel, suddenly,the hillside close to you tumbles, and the pile beneath you shifts, causing you to lose your footing for a second. Make a dexterity saving throw!

Powder Swamp - Yaw:
The hillside begins to crumble next to me. The earth shifts beneath me and I struggle to keep my footing! As I tumble I attempt to grab hold of the cylinder.
Feeling strangely more powerful, Zacharias swings his flail again at the creature.
flail attack: 19; damage: 11 bludgeoning damage
