(Not you Karmoli so no need to worry, this game is not here to have argument over things, I am just reminding people the basic rules of DnD, also part of being a good DM is to be a good storyteller so I’m trying to do that with my posts and skipping ahead is not helping to tell properly. The main thing is everyone is here to have fun and enjoy themselves and that includes the DM. That’s also why I’m making sure everyone gets a turn)
(Rest assured that I will be quick to reply as much as possible, please keep in mind time zones and work+family, which is why I’m slow at times. Anyways! )
Sister Mary Anne stands there listening to you as she clutches her hands and listens intently to you, she prayed for this moment that heroes would emerged to sought the terror and end the curse of this land once and for all “Bless you all for coming, mister moody is indeed one of our residents here and he is indeed not sound of mind, may i inquire why you wish to speak with him?” She asks graciously but with the faintest hint of weariness and waits for an answer, you look like well meaning people and as anyone of good nature or other it is in her vows to treat everyone equally.
(also thank you so much for saying that you’re enjoying the game so far, I’ve put a lot of effort into this and it is greatly appreciated to know the players are enjoying themselves. which is the main thing)
OOC: And sorry for the late/nonexistent replies: just assume that he's there, waiting in the shadows to agonize the next monster...or the next one... or the next one...
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
Rogue Shadow, the DM (and occasional) PC with schemes of inventive thinking
Without even bothering with a response to Vas' heroic declaration, Chain instantly dashes towards Amber's house, yelling at the top of his lungs: "Amber!!! It's Chain!!! Get your ass over here!!!"
> “Bless you all for coming, Mister Moody is indeed one of our residents here and he is indeed not sound of mind, may I inquire why you wish to speak with him?”
"People go woods. Some dead", Galqarin extends the last word and assumes a mock dead appearance, "some - poof!", he waves his hairy arms in the air, "Gone. Mister Moody, he go woods, he no dead or poof. He just cuckoo."
The fog clears a bit as you run towards her but unfortunately it’s too late as you see a giant spider wrapping her up in an enormous web and sinking his fangs into her, blood gushes from her as the creature eats her like a fly and cocoons the body like a fly to finish later. When you rush even closer the giant spider seemed to of disappeared as if it was never there and there is no web to be seen. You find the body sprawled out and decapitated exactly like the gnome of the last hunting party and off in the distance is the silhouette of a black rider and a black horse with glowing red eyes, when the fog waves over the figure, he is gone.
((the sanatorium))
The nun reaches for the latch above the gate and nods solemnly at Galqarin and opens the gate widely letting you all enter “Yes I’ve heard all about those woods, Moody says their cursed and that there is always a different story occurring within, whatever is happening it’s been happening for awhile as Moody is one of our older residents of 56 years old and he came here when he was 34, that’s why you must hurry home before nightfall or if you can’t then you must wear a mask to avoid the evil.”
Chain stops dead in his tracks witnessing the scene before him, and a lot of thoughts jump through his mind at once. First, his uncanny stoicism is shaken by Amber's death. Then, a tinge of fear comes and goes as it occurs to Chain that the spider could jump anyone like that, including him and Vas. Finally, Chain decides to deal with the pile of problems one at a time, as he turns around and rushes back towards Vas to help him fight the zombies.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
(You said there were three zombies, and I believe one is dead, correct?)
Vishaal will move into position, standing in between the zombies and where amber ran. He will swing at the next closest zombie. 23 to hit, 11 slashing.
The sanitarium gate reminds Galqarin disturbingly of his days in the workhouse. “You be letting us out again, yes?”
After a moment’s thought, something clicks, “Wait, Mister Moody here”, he holds up all his fingers, “twenty year? So dead people and poof people also twenty year?"
the already injured zombie is now dead, slugging out a distorted growl before falling to the ground and it’s head being caved in by the blow to the head
“Yes, around the same time every year as soon as the leaves start to turn to Amber, all manner of madness starts to happen, the druids would probably be able to tell you more, they’ve been here since the very beginning and then Dumbarton is a town where everyone has had their own agenda.” She explained knowing this town all to well “Especially since the royals have taken over this land.” Naturally she will allow you to leave this sanatorium, you’re not a patient here and sees you as only visitors “to answer your previous question, yes you would be allowed to leave.”
“This time, it ends when the winter wind starts to howl and autumn has had its day, let’s say around November it stops” She tells you before pausing in the courtyard and smiling sweetly down at Galqarin “You’re quiet clever for a bugbear, that’s good that should help you.”
" Wait so why, if you know people disappear in October, why don't you just not let people in the forest? " Mislaia asks Sister Mary Anne ( Whoo, got it right this time )
“Because not everyone can afford to live in the town and many depend on going into the forest for their livelihoods.” Sister Mary Anne explained as she he glanced over at Mislaia

((Shit, I just hope Chain can get to Amber in time with his ordinary human legs...I hope Carlos responds soon, the suspense is killing me.))

The cogs are almost audibly whirring in Galqarin's head. "It happen all time of year or just", looking at the sky, "this time?"
“This time, it ends when the winter wind starts to howl and autumn has had its day, let’s say around November it stops” She tells you before pausing in the courtyard and smiling sweetly down at Galqarin “You’re quiet clever for a bugbear, that’s good that should help you.”

o/ \🥛🍪 Hey, take care of yourself alright?
(I don't know where Carlos is, and I'm guessing Chain hasn't returned from finding Amber yet.)
As soon as another zombie moves close, I will swing. 20 to hit, 4 slashing.
“Because not everyone can afford to live in the town and many depend on going into the forest for their livelihoods.” Sister Mary Anne explained as she he glanced over at Mislaia
(Chain has returned, not sure about Carlos)

" That makes sense, shall we go to see this Moody Character? " Mislaia Follows Sister Mary Anne
