Sjiggie 04-12-07, 12:27 PM	After Sabra has thrown himself into the lava he was getting nightmares. In his nightmares he saw hisself falling into the earth. He just kept on falling and falling till he eventually woke up soaking in his own sweat. He referred to a sage what this nightmare was. The sage could only tell him he would have to go and find someone underground where he could bind with. Someone with an affinity to living underground and the creatures that dwell there. If he could find someone his nightmares would go away... Where do you want to take it from here?
Etiquette_Gnome 04-12-07, 06:17 PM	Sabra began to stand, knees wobbling for but a moment before he bowed before the sage. "Thank you for the help, Snorri. I have forgotten about the needs of my practice, to have a psyche to bind with, to ease the stresses I acrue. I had been able to handle it by myself for over a century, but my recent excursions into that arena are possibly too much for one of my age. Here, have my earnings from the smithy this week, your advice was worth it. With that, the elf walked outside and prepared arrangements for a trip to the near-Underdark. Thinking it prudent, Sabra stopped by the local mercenary guild, seeking two able-bodied souls to join him.
Sjiggie 04-15-07, 10:13 AM	Sabra finds his way to the mercenary guild to hire some mercenary guards. When he enters the shop and asks for 2 people to assist a dwarf and a gnome stand up and volunteer for the job. Sorry for the hold up but I can't get a clear answer where the guards are listed so I use the standard entry for the dwarf and gnome warrior in the SRD
Etiquette_Gnome 04-15-07, 10:31 PM	Sabra eyed the two sell-swords, appraising their worth. With a nod of settlement, "Very well, I'll need you two with me on a minor spelunking expedition. If you can keep an eye out, you'll have earned your pay." With a short spurt of paperwork, he had them bring their ropes and grappling hooks, as well as bullseye lanterns. Hopefully, they would arrive at the underground entrance and be near the near-Underdark within the day.
Sjiggie 04-16-07, 02:29 PM	Sabra brings the mercenary to an entrance into the Underdark. The begin their descend slowly and with the aid of the two guards the hallways are well lit. At a certain point when the hallway extends into a cavern system the find webbings all over the place. A dark humanoid stands before them. Halt! Travellers what brings you to the underdark?
Etiquette_Gnome 04-16-07, 07:28 PM	With an eyebrow raised and a hand to keep his guards steady, Sabra does his best to show confidence in an appraising manner, [color=orange]"Already the Underdark, this is? I am simply a traveller following my destiny, or at least a subconscious equivalent. And whom am I to understand are you, one who presumes to act on the behalf of the Underdark?"
Sjiggie 04-17-07, 06:04 AM	It doesn't matter who I am it is enough for you to know that your journey into the underdark stops here. In an instant the humanoid being throws a web at Sabra entangling him in a sticky goo before it disappears from his view. You are entangled in a web right now but the guards are not. Can you give me tactics vs a medium areana in the cavern map?
Etiquette_Gnome 04-17-07, 11:38 AM	Keep shield out, wait until I can see the thing again. Tell my guards to charge the thing, so my observation of their attacks will hopefully give me a chance to make any saves against possible illusion. When able, blast a maximum augmentation Energy Missile (6pp, 6d6+6 Fire, Reflex DC 22 for half), if I'm able. Do so again. If it's still alive, activate 3pp of Vigor (15 temporary hit points), then start using Control Flame on it (have the flame touch the torch to reignite before sending it out).
Sjiggie 04-17-07, 09:49 PM	Sabra struggles to break free of the web and succeeds. He tells his guards to charge the Areana on sight. The areana cast mage armor on himself. Sabra quickly puts his shield up to protect itself from anymore webbings. The guards stand ready to charge the areana. The areana comes back into view and Sabra blasts it with an Energy Missile (Fire) and the areana looks heavely burned and falls on the ground. The guards charge in and kill the beast while it lies helpless on the ground. As sabra looks carefully into the cavern he can see some cocoons made of the webbings of the Areana. The energy missile brought it to -1 and it only failed the save by 1 point how lucky can you get.
Etiquette_Gnome 04-17-07, 10:36 PM	Sabra examines the areana's corpse one last time to ensure it's death, then beckons the guards over to him and open up the cocoon.
Sjiggie 04-18-07, 06:33 AM	The dwarf takes his axe and slices open the cocoon and a skeleton falls out of the cocoon. When Sabra continues his search along the cocoons more skeletons fall out of the cocoons. Suddenly he feels something when he aproaches the last cocoon and he orders the guards to open it up carefully. From the cocoon falls a dwarven body barely alive...
Etiquette_Gnome 04-18-07, 02:00 PM	A touch startled by the discovery, Sabra kneels down and examines the dwarf. I doubt you're even conscious, but we're going to ensure your existance. He nods at the guards to pick up the dwarf woman (if this is the one I'm intending to make cohort, then it's female). If they begin to follow his orders, Sabra will stop them for a moment when he realizes that the dwarf is a deep dwarf, and places a piece of cloth over her eyes for when they reach the surface. He threatens a pay cut if the dwarf is further harmed by the time they reach the surface.
Sjiggie 04-18-07, 06:12 PM	Sabra covers the eyes of the deep dwarf when they surface again and when the dwarf is taken into the daylight a light shudder comes from the dwarf. Sabra brings the dwarf to his home and lays it on his bed. He then pays the guards and sends them home again. Moments later the dwarf seems to be consious again.
Etiquette_Gnome 04-18-07, 09:47 PM	"It is good to see that the araenea didn't finish you off. You are in my home in Gladius, which I thought more fitting for recovery than amidst the death of where I found you. Here, take this poultice. I would like to hear your tale for being forced into such a state, assuming you have the energy to speak. Sabra was all ears, but still attentive.
