Northlands Campaign

Since there's no immediate threat, Kina pauses in the crypt.
"I'll be right back." she says.
She quickly reappears with the body of 'Junior', and, since they're IN a crypt, finds a suitable place to lay him down. It's the closest she can come to giving him a decent burial.
"Sorry about that... I just didn't feel right leaving him in a heap on the floor like garbage. I know they're enemies. I just didn't feel right about it." she says.

She catches up to the others, unconsciously guarding Bart's flank. She really is not comfortable in cramped, underground spaces. It's no place for a centaur to be.

Arcana: -1

"Well done lassie, should have thought of that one maself." Says Barnabus to Kina. Glancing at the paper he says "Looks like me gamma's recipe for stewed tubers. Toss it and lets go"

(OCC: Haha obviously Barnabus has no clue)

Wil nods his approval. 

Arcanna: 7

Rachel Arcana check:  2

( May need to take it back to town to figure out .... o.O )

(We still have Cade, Kina, and Bart left.... since it’s not combat I’m betting Kina gets a nat 20.)

((Kina doesn't have proficiency in arcana.... but okay, here goes...20  ))

Arcana: 13

OOC: plot twist none of us can read hahah

((Kina doesn't have proficiency in arcana.... but okay, here goes...11  ))

 
You did better than I did.....

Bart & Kina:  The scroll is Protection from Undead.

Also in the pile:  800 sp and 7 vials that Rachel will confirm are Holy Water.

((My curse is spreading!))

Kina clears her throat and just opens her saddle bags again.
"Load me up." she says. At least she can keep the group from being encumbered. Given her strength and build, she can comfortably carry almost 500 lbs. of gear and goods, as long as she has the room in her packs.
"Figures, we have to fight past a couple of shamblers in order to FIND protection from them." she mutters. "That's like finding a ring of invisibility when nobody even cares who you are."

(OOC:  Just an FYI.  My laptop is having technical issues and I am having to use my phone for now. this is going to make posting harder and less frequent.)

Cade arcana: 19

Bart looks at the scroll and looks to the group "Well at least this will work once in a future battle. Let's get a move on. Kina want to give me some of those items? I wouldn't mind sharing the load and helping you." He winks at her.

Kina rolls her eyes.
"Oh please, feathers. You could be riding me right now and I would barely notice." she says, though the sexual connotations don't occur to her until after the words already leave her mouth. She elects to try and pretend the thought had never entered her mind, but she KNOWS she just invited a few off-colour jokes.

She takes a look ahead of them; is the crypt just a dead end or are there more passages beyond?

(Other than the passage to the natural cave den of the ghouls where Wil found the loot, this is a dead end.  Well, since that's a dead end too, I guess the whole thing is.)

Wil snorts and does his best not to laugh, “Kina, to wound a man’s, um sorry Bart, I mean an Aarakocra’s pride like that.... that’s just wrong..... well done!!!” and with that collapses into a fit of laughter.

"hah It ain't the first time I have been severely underestimated. But I always prove myself in the end" Bart says quite cocky (literally) and turns to Wil putting his wing on his forehead dramatically "You are right elven friend how will I go on like this" pretending to faint into him. 

Either too focused to register the statements or just to dim, Barnabus pays no heed to the comments and instead stalks towards the catacomb entrance intent on heading back towards the barracks.

Making your way back to the split in the hallway where Junior was sent to see The One, do you go down the stairs to check on the cistern, or take the passage he said leads to the barracks and the tunnel out.

Kina mutters and then snorts.
"I realized it only AFTER I said it." she says, blushing to the ears.
"A little levity helps when you're in a situation like this..." she says, looking down the hallway towards the barracks.
"I wonder if that scroll was left by one of their number to deal with them. I don't know how they could co-inhabit the same area without a FEW accidental attacks otherwise.... that is, unless this 'One' is a master of undead and the cult is being promised 'immortality'." she mumbles.
"If you consider unlife to be immortality..."
"Maybe we should see if there's anyone left in the barracks. I mean, we've raised about all the alarms we CAN right now and we're not up to my tits in trouble. Maybe there's only a .... skeleton crew left"

“Cistern and then the barracks it what I propose since the barracks has the way out supposedly.”
