=== Episode 18 === ==== The Party ==== ([[Anna Prosser Robinson|Anna]]) [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]] - Human Paladin of Lathander ([[Commander Holly|Holly]]) [[Strix]] - Tiefling Sorcerer ([[ProJared]]) [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] - Human Rogue ==== The Amber Temple ==== [[Strix]] hears the flapping wings and she sees [[Kasimir Belikov|Kasimir]] drawing his scimitar. [[Strix]] yells at him to go take care of it. This wakes up [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]]. It's gone. Nobody is sure what it was. The group is able to get their long rest. [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]] didn't turn into a werewolf. The group is able to traverse the rest of [[Tsolenka Pass|Tsolenka pass]] without too much difficulty. Evelyn smells wolves. Not werewolves. The waffle crew arrives at [[the Amber Temple]]. [[Kasimir Belikov|Kasimir]] explains a bit of the temple's history. [[Chris Perkins|Chris]] describes the vestiges in the temple as "gods of secrets." Great wizards locked them away. As the group frets about going inside, [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] calls [[Kasimir Belikov|Kasimir]] "ass smear." [[Kasimir Belikov|Kasimir]] ignores [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] and turns around. He senses that creatures are coming. Dozens of creatures. Here they come. They are wolves. Some of them are horse-sized! [[Kasimir Belikov|Kasimir]] makes like he's going to hold them off. The group panics and goes into the temple. ==== Exploring the Temple ==== [[File:Kaylastrixx.jpg|thumb|https://twitter.com/kayncli]] They creep around a bit. They find a big statue of a robed hooded figure. A "dark god." Suddenly, a bolt of lighting comes out of the hood of the statue and strikes Evelyn. Evelyn takes 47 points of damage. Then the bolt leaps to [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] (this is a ''chain lightning'' spell). [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] takes 44 points of damage. He's down. Then the lightning leaps over to [[Strix]]! Man, this is one nasty spell. [[Strix]] takes 44. She's down, too. [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]] heals herself and drags [[Strix]] to safety. NPC [[Paultin Seppa|Paultin]] drags [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] to safety. [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]] revives them. The group doesn't know if the statue did this or if there is someone up there. [[Strix]] wants to shoot a ''fireball'' up there. The group seems to think it won't do anything. She does it anyway and does over 40 damage to something. Here comes a ''fireball'' from the statue. [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]] covers [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]]. She heroically takes all of the damage to save him. She rolls a saving throw with disadvantage. She fails. She decides to use inspiration, so she gets to re-roll. She rolls a... 3. [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] and [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]] are unconscious. [[Strix]] is the only hero standing, aside from NPC [[Paultin Seppa|Paultin]]. They're in an area away from the statue. They're safe for the moment. ==== Recovering ==== [[Chris Perkins|Chris]] checks [[Paultin Seppa|Paultin]]'s sheet to see if he has any healing spells or items. He doesn't. [[Strix]] pours a potion into him - one of the potions the group took from the hags in the Old Bonegrinder<ref>[[Episode 4]]</ref>. It's a ''potion of longevity''. [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] goes from the age of 28 to 18. The group finds this very amusing. [[Strix]] force feeds the unconscious heroes snacks. She decides to go find [[Kasimir Belikov|Kasimir]] in her ''gaseous form''. Outside, the wolves have surrounded him. They're not attacking each other. They seem to be on the same side. It seems like they are waiting for the group to come out. [[Strix]] returns to her normal form and yells at [[Kasimir Belikov|Kasimir]]. She tries to intimidate him. [[Kasimir Belikov|Kasimir]] tells her that this mountain is her tomb. He says he is going to kill her if she comes any closer. [[Strix]] runs back inside. She rejoins NPC [[Paultin Seppa|Paultin]]. They hear a huge rumbling sound. It sounds like the mountain is coming down outside - crashing ice and snow. The heroes realize that someone brought snow down from the mountain and buried this place. The group is trapped in [[the Amber Temple]]. ==== Trapped ==== [[Strix]] cries. She drinks some of [[Paultin Seppa|Paultin]]'s wine. They dump some wine in unconscious [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]] and [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]]. [[Strix]] decides there's only one thing to do: Call on [[Lathander]] for help. [[Strix]] earnestly asks [[Lathander]] for aid. She even offers to stop calling him "Butthander." There is no answer. The torches slowly go out. [[Strix]] decides to explore the temple alone. This is not good. She goes into a room and comes upon three flameskulls, hovering skulls that can shoot rays of flame. They send rays of green flame at her. She's a tiefling, so she takes half damage from fire. She's got just a couple hit points left. She runs and shut the doors. She limps back to her friends. The group rests for a long time. [[Evelyn Marthain|Evelyn]] and [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] wake up and regain some hit points. The group is really frazzled and can't agree on what to do next. [[Strix]] has an idea of magically disguising herself as [[Count Strahd von Zarovich|Strahd]] to boss around any bad guys they meet in the temple. [[Diath Woodrow|Diath]] thinks that won't help against the statue. They finally decide to attack the flameskulls. They open the doors. The flameskulls were waiting! Three ''fireballs'' explode in the room. NPC [[Paultin Seppa|Paultin]] goes down and... melts. As if he was made of ice and snow. That wasn't Paultin! That's where we stop.{{Episode nav|state=expanded}} [[Category:Episodes]]
