03[17:11:47] * Now talking in #Sharn


[19:06:24] <NovaSeaker> [Lee's eyes open, and he sees the group and the Kalashtar that attacked him.]
[19:06:28] <NovaSeaker> [Session Start]
01[19:06:41] <Aurora> ( Lee? :V )
[19:06:55] <NovaSeaker> [Aurelis' eyes open, and he sees the group and the Kalashtar that attacked him.]
[19:06:58] <NovaSeaker> [Session Start]
06[19:07:09] * Aurelis struggles in his binds. "I wish the worst on all on you."
[19:07:36] <Aurelis> Release me 
01[19:07:40] <Aurora> And we want the best for you.
[19:07:44] <NovaSeaker> [There is a new individual, one Aurelis doesn't recognize, touching his head.]
[19:08:03] <Aurelis> What do you know! You trust the words of strangers over me!
06[19:08:06] * Marianysa looks downcast. "It was a mistake, Aur."
[19:08:24] <NovaSeaker> <Jezaar> "Be calm. They were right to bring you to us. There is a presence inside you that even we cannot identify."
06[19:08:33] * Aurelis moves his head. "Who are you? Don't touch me?"
[19:09:10] <NovaSeaker> "You have my touch to thank for being concious again."
[19:09:15] <Aurelis> Typical, just because you don't know it doesn't mean you need to fear it. It's done nothing wrong to any of us.
[19:10:04] <Aurelis> Excuse me for being rude, but I don't really have reason to trust you. I appreciate you waking me but can you let me go?"
[19:10:20] <NovaSeaker> "For that, I must appologize on behalf of our entire community. We Adarans and kalashtar have certain... reservations about possession."
[19:10:20] <Phanos> "He got de gree gree bad-bad, dis one."
[19:11:02] <NovaSeaker> "Certainly, I'll unbind you now."
01[19:11:03] <Aurora> ... hmph. I might regret this, but he's got a point. It hasn't done anything bad. Yet. Aside from trying to overwrite Aurelis' brain. Which I'm not sure it's intentionally doing.
01[19:11:12] <Aurora> Any way to remove it without wrecking it?
[19:11:14] <NovaSeaker> [Jezaar moves to unbind Aurelis.]
[19:11:52] <NovaSeaker> "It's not quite that simple. As for overwriting your friends brain, I'm not certain that is what it's doing. As I said, it's not a mind seed."
06[19:11:56] * Aurelis holds his wrists. "Thank you"
01[19:12:09] <Aurora> Then any idea what it is?
[19:13:39] <Phanos> "He done said dat too."
[19:14:40] <Aurelis> They have no clue and to be honest the only ones who do are in my head. But I assure you that we'll all be fine if you stay out of my head.
[19:14:52] <NovaSeaker> "Unfortunately no, we don't. Which is why we're still keeping guard. I'm sorry, but we've got our own reasons to distrust dual-minded beings. However... if you wish to know what it is as much as we, we can attempt to rouse The Enlightened from his meditative trance."
01[19:15:22] <Aurora> Definitely.
[19:16:01] <Phanos> "Dats fo ya boy to decide, not you."
06[19:16:10] * Phanos looks to Aurelis.
01[19:18:00] <Aurora> Even if he can't help us here... well, maybe he could help us with other things
06[19:18:38] * Marianysa folds her arms. "Look, no offense, or not much at least, but the stuff you say isn't always that reliable, Aur. What we supposed to think?"
[19:18:58] <Aurelis> Like the guy with the reavers and the attempted murders
[19:19:09] <NovaSeaker> (ravers)
[19:19:22] <Aurelis> (too much firefly)
[19:20:10] <Phanos> "Or de rat-man."
[19:20:24] <Phanos> "De one what helpded us."
[19:20:30] <Aurelis> Mari, I don't trust your word right now. And I've usually been in control and reliable. Even when Zenith was getting a kick out of narrating my thoughts. 
06[19:20:45] * Aurelis chuckles, "That was messed up."
06[19:22:05] * Marianysa reddens. "I take it back. I don't regret hitting you at all anymore."
[19:23:15] <Aurelis> I hate you
06[19:23:22] * Marianysa gets up and storms out of the room.
[19:23:30] <NovaSeaker> (o_O)
01[19:23:41] <Aurora> Mari, we've still got things to do.
[19:24:18] <Aurelis> let her cool off. She's been very immature about things.
[19:24:36] <NovaSeaker> [The two kalashtar and Jezaar watch Mari leave silently. Harharath and Jezaar pretend not to have noticed. Zanatash opens his mouth, however.]
[19:25:02] <NovaSeaker> "Oh, and I don't suppose mouthing off to a friend who's just worried about you and confused is immature."
[19:25:16] <Phanos> "So iz you, sayin youz in chaage, wat wif you bein' gone so long and all."
[19:25:45] <NovaSeaker> "Better watch what you say, or else you'll find yourself alone."
[19:26:02] <Phanos> "I sho ain't tooked no ordaz from ya. Too crazy say even de black man wif de plant zombos."
[19:26:44] <Aurelis> I think her lack of trust means something when I've been nothing but honest with her. Although I agree that you have to look out for your community please leave our personal lives. but we would like to you mentor please.
[19:27:20] <NovaSeaker> (Slow down there, Lee, you're skipping words.)
[19:27:28] <Aurelis> I feel that your betrayal has cost some of my trust but I never assumed to be in charge. I'd rather move on.
[19:28:45] <NovaSeaker> <Aun> "For fuck's sake, Aurelis, shut your mouth before I shut it for you. I know these people, and they said you were possessed. And you *are*. So you can keep going on about "betrayal" this and "trust" that, or you can wake the fuck up and realize we were trying to help you."
[19:29:02] <Phanos> "Wat de boy sed."
[19:29:19] <Aurelis> But I'm fine! and I told you that! Can we move on!
[19:30:15] <Phanos> "Oy-yoy-yoy." he looks to Zenatash. "I sorry mon, dey not exactly de most dee-bon-aire folks t' be round, no."
[19:30:25] <Phanos> "You sed you was gonna take us de man in chage?"
[19:31:18] <NovaSeaker> <Zanatash looks at Phanos.> "Uh, yeah. It can take time to wake The Enlightened though. You're better off going home, we'll contact you when we've managed it."
[19:31:48] <Phanos> "Got-ya mon. You knows what we looks fa den?"
[19:31:56] <Phanos> "Or will we be gettin' t' ask?"
[19:31:57] <NovaSeaker> [Aun shakes her head at Aurelis dissappointedly and just leaves.]
[19:32:21] <NovaSeaker> <Zanatash> "We'll contact you when he awakes so you can ask him yourself."
[19:32:46] <NovaSeaker> "Also, you." [He points to Aurelis.] "Are you 100% certain of the nature of what's inside you?"
[19:33:27] <Aurelis> No, but I have no reason to believe that it's harmful to me. He saved my life. 
[19:33:58] <NovaSeaker> <Jezaar> "Or he saved his, and you just happened to be the body he's living in."
[19:34:34] <NovaSeaker> [Zanatash nods.] "You don't even know what's inside you. How can you ask your friends to trust it?"
[19:35:16] <Aurelis> I ask them to trust me. I've never endangered them. Do you have a suggested way for me to leave so I don't alarm your neighbors?
[19:35:16] <Phanos> "It easy. Just gotta be onery enough."
[19:35:37] <NovaSeaker> "We'll escort you out."
[19:35:41] <Aurelis> Thanks
01[19:35:56] <Aurora> We trust you. Just not that other thing in your head.
[19:36:25] <Aurelis> No offense Aur but you didn't need to attack me to prove that you trust me.
[19:36:56] <Aurelis> I can understand if I ever harmed you but you have to agree that having your friends attack you doesn't feel good.
[19:37:20] <NovaSeaker> <Zanatash> "In all fairness, I was the one that stabbed you. Your friends were much more merficul and just tried to knock you cold."
01[19:37:20] <Aurora> Sorry about that. You bolted, and we panicked.
[19:37:32] <Phanos> "Dat ting mo likely to be stabbin you in de back. Just de slow kind."
[19:38:16] <Aurelis> Maybe, but in this situation I'm just as knowledgeable as everyone else about what's going on so please trust me.
[19:38:28] <Phanos> "You wan us be yo frien, den you wan go off on ya own, den you wan us be yo frien again."
[19:38:33] <Phanos> "Stick a path, mon."
[19:39:12] <Phanos> "I be at my shop you want some roach cream. Smoke it an it fix you right up. Second mind be tinkin so slow dat it not even seem be deah. Firs one too tho."
[19:39:22] <NovaSeaker> [Harharath clears is throat and Zanatash nods.] "Alright, let's get going then."
[19:39:26] <Aurelis> I thought that the reason you were being attacked was because I thought they were after me. I was trying to take the noble route, that's why I left. I came back because I realized that I can't handle this alone.
06[19:39:40] * Phanos nods to the Kalashtar, letting them escort him out.
06[19:39:46] * Aurelis follows
[19:40:12] <NovaSeaker> ((Anyone wanna take a sense motive on that?))
01[19:41:05] <Aurora> ( sure )
03[19:43:40] * Aun (~CharlesHB@c-71-233-188-2.hsd1.ma.comcast.net) has joined #Sharn
[19:44:59] <NovaSeaker> [The group leaves the room to find Aun and Mari standing in the hallway. They both glare at Aurelis.]
[19:46:01] <Aurelis> Thank you for apologizing Aur. I appreiciate you understanding how you feel and I promise to let nothing happen to you guys.
[19:47:28] <Aurelis> ((How I feel, sorry))
[19:52:16] <NovaSeaker> [Zanatash and Harharath escort the party out of Overlook, hailing them a skycab.]
[19:52:34] <NovaSeaker> "We'll contant you when The Enlightned is roused from his trance."
06[19:52:57] * Marianysa glares at Aurelis. "I liked you better when you weren't so damn self righteous."
01[19:52:59] <Aurora> How will you contact us?
[19:53:12] <NovaSeaker> "Telepathy, most likely."
06[19:53:16] * Aun nods. "Thank you very much, sirs." She turns to Mari and nods curtly in agreement.
06[19:53:38] * Aurora nods.
06[19:54:29] * Aurelis looks away and remains silent
[19:54:35] <Phanos> "We preciate de help, mons."
06[19:54:42] * Phanos steps onto the skycab with his zombies.
[19:55:17] <Marianysa> Yeah, thanks.
[19:55:17] <Phanos> "You want I lend you some facepaint and nail-black dip, or is you gonna stop wit de poutin?"
[19:55:34] <NovaSeaker> (HAHAHAHHAHA)
[19:55:53] <NovaSeaker> ((Oh man, that actually made me burst out laughing))
[19:56:11] <Marianysa> (Aahahahahaa)
[19:56:16] <Phanos> "I gives it you all if you wants borra some. We got a rakshasha deal with. I trus' ya mon, and I ain't ner raised me a fingah at you. We needs get along. You alls forget what we been through already."
[19:57:14] <NovaSeaker> ((Oh man, a tough-love pep-talk coming from the voodoo necromancer. This is hilarious.))
01[19:57:29] <Aurora> ( Punch him in the face )
[19:58:12] <Marianysa> ( CLENCH THOSE TEETH! )
06[19:58:17] * Aurelis chuckles, "I always wondered how Mari would look in makeup."
06[19:58:42] * Phanos smirks. "Ya all ought paint skulls, like me."
06[19:59:19] * Marianysa ignores Aurelis.
[19:59:26] <Aurelis> Will you show me how to apply makeup like you, Phanos?
[19:59:56] <Phanos> "Fo' sho."
[20:01:11] <Aurelis> ((fo' sho'. haha))
06[20:02:13] * Phanos pulls out a small pair of clippers, trimming a vine carefully from one of his zombies' necks.
[20:02:45] <NovaSeaker> [The skycab pulls up eventually and you tell it to go to Blackstone in Fallen. He looks a little hesitant but when Aun mentions her name, he remembers the story she wrote and how the place is much safer with the crazies gone, so he takes you without any further complaint.]
06[20:08:23] * Aurora waits around for Sev. She paces.
[20:09:06] <NovaSeaker> [Sev is not outside of Blackstone Cathedral, where the skycab leaves you.]
06[20:09:38] * Aurelis pulls out his spellbook.
06[20:09:51] * Marianysa gets out, and sighs, after looking around. "He better not have gotten arrested."
01[20:10:00] <Aurora> ... you know, I wouldn't doubt it.
[20:10:09] <NovaSeaker> [You might want to check inside.]
06[20:10:20] * Aurora walks inside. "He's always screwing around with the Guard."
06[20:11:08] * Aurelis closes his book. "Hopefully we can pool together bail if he was."
[20:11:16] <NovaSeaker> [Sev is sitting in the front pew of the main hall, facing away from the entrance, toward the painted fresco of the Silver Flame holy symbol at the end of the hall.]
01[20:11:29] <Aurora> Oh, good. Sev, you're here.
01[20:11:33] <Aurora> Did you find anything?
[20:11:46] <NovaSeaker> [Sev doesn't move, just grunts.]
01[20:12:04] <Aurora> ... you alright?
[20:12:05] <Aurelis> Larconic as ever. Glad to see all went well.
[20:12:23] <NovaSeaker> [As you get closer, you can see Sev's posture is extremely tense and he's glowering at the holy symbol.] "I'm fine."
01[20:12:42] <Aurora> ... if you say so.
[20:12:51] <NovaSeaker> "Got your bloody rapier."
[20:13:10] <Aurelis> "Thanks, what did you have to go through to get it?"
[20:13:13] <NovaSeaker> [Sev takes his booted foot off the sheathed rapier on the ground.]
[20:13:21] <NovaSeaker> "Nothing."
[20:14:25] <Aurelis> So, Aun, your friends will be able to use this, right?
06[20:14:26] * Aurora takes the rapier. "I see you'd like to be left alone right now..."
[20:15:03] <Aun> Yeah, with any luck, they'd probably be able to get a read off of it.
[20:15:22] <NovaSeaker> (You needed the extra material to scry. You used the cloth itself to talk to Aun's friends.)
[20:15:24] <Marianysa> ...Sev? What's going on?
[20:16:26] <NovaSeaker> "I'm fine."
[20:16:40] <NovaSeaker> [Sev taps his foot impatiently.]
[20:16:57] <Marianysa> Um. Okay.
06[20:20:06] * Aurelis tries to rally the group. "Let's go, Sev will contact us when he follows his next lead."
[20:20:41] <NovaSeaker> "I ain't following any more leads!"
[20:21:03] <NovaSeaker> "I said I'm fucking fine, alright! So let's go already!"
01[20:21:05] <Aurora> Right. Okay.
[20:21:22] <NovaSeaker> [He gets up in and grabs his maul.]
[20:21:27] <Phanos> "Sho."
[20:21:29] <NovaSeaker> "What next?!"
06[20:21:38] * Marianysa winces. "Right."
01[20:21:46] <Aurora> We've got a pretty strong scrying aid here.
06[20:21:55] * Aurelis chuckles "Phanos is going to prep us for battle."
01[20:22:04] <Aurora> We have a good chance of finding something out.
[20:22:09] <Phanos> "If you wan."
[20:22:25] <NovaSeaker> "Alright, lets get with the scrying then!"
[20:22:52] <NovaSeaker> [Waves his arms impatiently, with the maul in hand, it's not safe to stand next to him.]
[20:22:53] <Aurelis> Aun, should we wait for them to contact you?
[20:23:02] <NovaSeaker> (That could take days)
06[20:23:24] * Aurora makes some distance.
[20:24:11] <Aurelis> I guess you can go speak to someone now, but I guess it'd be bad for me to come with you. I'll hang out by my old place if you need me?
01[20:24:37] <Aurora> Why would it be bad for you to come with us? 
[20:25:43] <Aurelis> ((my bad I thought you were visiting the psions, scratch that
[20:25:45] <Aurelis> ((my bad I thought you were visiting the psions, scratch that))
[20:27:59] <NovaSeaker> "Contact who? Didn't you guys finish with Aun's weirdo friends?"
01[20:28:30] <Aurora> Oh, right... well, there was a fight, and... well, we found out one of the guys trying to kill us.
[20:28:48] <Aurelis> Earlier I suggested the wizards circle. I've dealt with them before and they're a well known organization.
01[20:29:01] <Aurora> Oh, wait. You know that already
[20:30:34] <NovaSeaker> "What?"
[20:30:42] <NovaSeaker> "You figured out who's trying to kill us?"
01[20:30:46] <Aurora> We WILL!
01[20:30:52] <Aurora> With this sword.
[20:31:05] <NovaSeaker> [Sev glares at Aurora.]
[20:31:12] <NovaSeaker> "You just said you found out."
[20:31:23] <NovaSeaker> "So I got this sword. For nothing."
01[20:31:35] <Aurora> No, no.
01[20:31:54] <Aurora> "know that" is referring to Aurelis. Aurelis knows that we... wait, no
01[20:31:59] <Aurora> I'm talking about that first Rakshasa
01[20:32:02] <Aurora> This one is a second one.
01[20:32:06] <Aurora> The one we don't know yet.
[20:32:38] <Phanos> "Aint it his blood on it? De secon on?"
[20:32:42] <NovaSeaker> "Why don't I ever know what the flame you're talking about, Aurora?"
06[20:32:52] * Marianysa blinks at Aurora. "What?"
01[20:33:19] <Aurora> I think that's his blood. Unless our ally stabbed himself.
[20:33:53] <Aurelis> Shall we go?
01[20:33:58] <Aurora> Sounds good.
06[20:34:03] * Aurora semes glad to have cleared that up
06[20:35:10] * Aurelis calls for a sky cab to head to the wizards circle
06[20:37:23] * Aurora waits.
06[20:38:11] * Phanos cracks his neck.
[20:38:28] <Phanos> "Man, I be itchin' to try out me new spells de vulchah been showin me."
[20:43:37] <NovaSeaker> [The group walks outside and into the neighboring district to catch a skycab. Fallen might be a bit safer but there's no skycab pilot willing to make regular rounds on account of how poor the residents are.]
[20:44:23] <NovaSeaker> [So after a half-hour walk into Lower Tavick's Landing, you find a skycoach dock and manage to hail a cab.]
[20:45:21] <Aurelis> Sorry, I forgot about the lack of skycabs there.
[20:46:47] <NovaSeaker> [The couple in front of you in line at the dock approach the skycab, but the pilot shakes his head. After a short arguement, the people in line leave...]
01[20:46:49] <Aurora> No problem. Just glad to have you back.
[20:46:59] <NovaSeaker> [Pilot] "Hello folks, where you headed?"
06[20:47:20] * Aurora looks to Aurelis
[20:47:31] <Aurelis> We're headed to the Wizard's circle in...
06[20:47:51] * Aurelis mentions the district that Lee forgot.
[20:49:25] <NovaSeaker> "Sure thing."
[20:49:44] <NovaSeaker> [The group piles into the skycab and it takes off from the dock.]
06[20:51:35] * Phanos looks around the cab
01[20:52:23] <Aurora> So glad to be making progress
[20:52:30] <Phanos> "wats wif de chains?"
[20:53:14] <NovaSeaker> <Pilot> "Huh?"
[20:53:24] <Phanos> "Undah de seats."
01[20:54:03] <Aurora> ... chains?
[20:54:06] <NovaSeaker> [The pilot spares a moment from looking where he's going to look down where Phanos points.]
[20:54:15] <Phanos> "ya mon."
[20:54:27] <NovaSeaker> "Where could those have come from?"
[20:54:38] <NovaSeaker> [He frowns, confused.]
06[20:54:58] * Phanos peeks under the seat, looking to where they lead.
[20:55:20] <NovaSeaker> [The chains flop around loosely, not connected to anything.]
06[20:56:46] * Aurelis laughs "That is weird, is there a gimp under the seat."
01[20:57:41] <Aurora> Does it matter?
06[20:58:48] * Marianysa scratches her head.
[20:59:21] <Aun> We're not going to Clifftop.
[20:59:38] <NovaSeaker> <Pilot> "Eh? Sure we are. I'm just taking a shortcut."
01[21:01:19] <Aurora> ... why are you lying to us?
[21:01:21] <Aun> No, we're not.
[21:01:48] <Aun> And we've got more swords than you, so I suggest you come clean before we toss you out and find out how well Aurora can fly a skycab
[21:02:14] <Aurelis> Oh no, not a good thing
06[21:02:16] * Marianysa scowls, folding her arms.
[21:03:29] <NovaSeaker> <Pilot> "Heh. Well, you better learn fast, cause we're heading right to the Hilt. And then this whole cab will crash right into the river."
[21:03:59] <NovaSeaker> <Init>
[21:04:23] <Aun> 1d20+2
[21:04:29] <Aun> (derp)
[21:12:41] <NovaSeaker> Make sure everyone alters their HP to 4th level totals
[21:13:22] <NovaSeaker> oh wait
[21:13:28] <NovaSeaker> are you guys 3rd or 4th level?
[21:13:34] <Aurelis> 4th
[21:13:38] <NovaSeaker> ((Whoops))
[21:14:48] <Phanos> 1d20+0
03[21:20:16] * NovaSeaker changes topic to 'Init Order: Phanos, Aun, Aurora, Mari, Sev, Aurelis'
[21:20:41] <Phanos> "You tinks ya gon get away wit dis mon? Offa de boat?"
03[21:20:50] * NovaSeaker changes topic to 'Init Order: Pilot, Phanos, Aun, Aurora, Mari, Sev, Aurelis'
06[21:20:53] * Phanos points to the pilot. "Go, plantbos!"
[21:21:01] <NovaSeaker> (Sorry, forgot to roll enemy init)
[21:21:34] <NovaSeaker> "You have no idea what you're dealing with."
06[21:22:11] * Phanos 's zombies shuffle forward, surrounding the pilot. As they do, Phanos begins the motions of a spell. Vines sprout out between the zombies, exploding from their bodies and holding them in place, hopefully the pilot as well.
[21:22:56] <NovaSeaker> (Pilot goes first)
[21:23:03] <NovaSeaker> (As I said, sorry, I forgot to roll his init)
[21:23:07] <Phanos> (gah, sorry.
[21:23:16] <NovaSeaker> [Pilot's Turn]
[21:23:48] <NovaSeaker> [The skycab pilot raises his arms and suddenly the chains around your feet sprung upward like snakes, then sprout razor-sharp edges.]
[21:23:56] <NovaSeaker> spring*
[21:24:08] <NovaSeaker> (Damn you slowbeef! *shakefist*)
[21:30:52] <NovaSeaker> [The pilot moves his hands like something akin to an orchestra conductor or puppeteer, and the lengths of chain all along the floor writh and slash out at Sev, Aun, and Mari, though Aun takes most of the damage.]
[21:30:56] <NovaSeaker> [Phanos's Turn.]
[21:31:07] <Marianysa> Gah! What the hell?
06[21:32:41] * Phanos , with a keen eye, notices that apparently the pilot needs to direct the chains with somatic movements. He rushes forward, along with his zombies, going through the movements of a spell, his hand glowing a pale green as he attempts to tag the man on his chest
[21:38:08] <NovaSeaker> [Aun's Turn]
[21:39:48] <NovaSeaker> [Aun moves back a pace or two, standing behind Mari, and makes a few movements and chants a few words before speaking louder to the pilot.] "Hey, listen, why don't we put down out weapons and just go for a drink, alright?"
[21:40:18] <NovaSeaker> [The Pilot is unaffected by her words.]
[21:40:22] <NovaSeaker> [Aurora]
[21:43:25] <NovaSeaker> [Aurora begins casting...]
06[21:43:27] * Aurora grasps her silver flame emblem and begins speaking softly...
[21:43:31] <NovaSeaker> [Mari's Turn]
06[21:48:58] * Marianysa moves towards the front of the cab.
[21:52:33] <NovaSeaker> [Sev moves up beside Mari and takes a defensive stance just like her.]
[21:52:38] <NovaSeaker> [Aurelis's Turn]
06[21:55:54] * Aurelis lifts his hands smoke rises from his clenched fist he opens his fingers and a sphere of flame immolates the air. The sphere hovers towards the driver burning his area.
[21:57:00] <NovaSeaker> [Aurelis's flaming sphere dissipates the isntant it touches the pilot.]
[21:57:39] <NovaSeaker> "Hmph. Looks like none of you can appreciate the depth of your plight. Allow me to... show you."
[21:58:41] <NovaSeaker> [The pilot removes his cloak and cowel... and he looks... just like...]
[21:58:45] <NovaSeaker> [Will Save]
[22:02:29] <NovaSeaker> [His faces shifts, almost in a random slideshow of features. The faces of hated enemies and departed loved ones of everyone slides across his features. No one is especially unnerved by this, however.]
[22:02:53] <Phanos> "Hey, das me dead zombo!"
[22:02:57] <NovaSeaker> [After this reveal, the pilot waves his hands and commands the chains to move again.]
[22:02:58] <Aurelis> Did I just see my father?
06[22:03:56] * Marianysa growls. "You don't have the right to use his face."
[22:06:40] <NovaSeaker> "As if he was special. Just another grain of sand in a broken hourglass, spilling away into the Realm of the Dead, washed away for all eternity.]
[22:06:42] <NovaSeaker> "
[22:07:26] <NovaSeaker> [The chains lash out at Phanos, slicing across his face, then his neck, dropping him to the deck of the skycab. Unrelenting, the chains slice into his back even as he lies bleeding.]
[22:10:30] <NovaSeaker> [Phanos's Turn]
[22:11:14] <Phanos> The zombies, unaware of their still-alive master's plight, begin to lash out at the pilot, moaning, spitting chlorophyll
[22:12:16] <NovaSeaker> [Aun's Turn]
[22:12:24] <NovaSeaker> "Crap! That's not a person!"
[22:13:32] <NovaSeaker> [Aun casts a different spell.] "Knock, knock. Who's there? Interrupting cow. Interrupting c-MOO!"
[22:14:32] <NovaSeaker> [The pilot-thing ignores Aun.]
[22:14:49] <Marianysa> Whatever it is, it's dead.
[22:14:52] <NovaSeaker> [Aurora's dog appears!]
06[22:18:08] * Aurora lifts her hand from her symbol and points at the man. "Flee!"
[22:23:24] <NovaSeaker> [Her rather noble-looking dog fails to sink it's teeth in the pilot-thing's chain-covered body.]
[22:23:33] <NovaSeaker> [Mari's Turn!]
06[22:26:11] * Marianysa steps forward, taking two swings at the...pilot.
[22:34:03] <NovaSeaker> [Mari's sword lances into the creature but its as if his insides are tough clay, and most of her momentum is used up just trying to penetrate it.]
[22:35:20] <NovaSeaker> [Sev's Turn]
[22:36:09] <NovaSeaker> "MOVE THESE FUCKING ZOMBIES OUT OF MY WAY"
[22:38:59] <NovaSeaker> [Sev tries to grab a zombo and shove it out of the way, but it's pain-dead muscles power through his grasp and it continues to flail ungainly at the pilot.]
[22:39:06] <NovaSeaker> [Aurelis]
06[22:39:17] * Aurelis lifts his hands smoke rises from his clenched fist he opens his fingers and another sphere of flame immolates the air. The second sphere hovers towards the driver burning his area.
[22:39:57] <NovaSeaker> [The sphere disappates on contact with the pilot again.]
[22:40:09] <NovaSeaker> [Pilot's Turn.]
[22:41:53] <NovaSeaker> [It's faces continues to shift features. The evil dwarf priest Aurora tried to oust from his position. The lovely human face of the deranged-shapechanger that tried to kill Aurelis. Phanos's old mentor that turtored him in the ways of the Vultcha'. And Mari's martyred kin.]
[22:41:56] <NovaSeaker> [Will Saves]
[22:43:57] <NovaSeaker> [Also, oddly enough, his face flashes into that of a fiendish displacer beast.]
[22:48:47] <NovaSeaker> "It seems you've made your choice. Death by my gentle caress rather than the river's embrace. Just grains of sand. Tiny specks of life at the bottom of time's river."
[22:49:35] <NovaSeaker> [The wound Mari punctured into him, hard fought as it was to even damage him, begins to close, almost completely.]
[22:50:00] <NovaSeaker> [And then he begins to make the chains dance.]
[22:53:12] <NovaSeaker> [The bite wound on the pilot's leg though, the one inflicted by Aurora's summoned celestial dog, does not heal over.]
[22:56:31] <NovaSeaker> [Session Pause]
