[20:27] <BradGM> Battle was joined; Edgerrin was overtaken quickly and fell during the initial onslaught of the Ungors, even Father Otto had to pitch in or die. Alexi took upon himself to provoke the Gors, which worked in an unpredictable way; one of the Beastsmen charged Siluvaine, forcing the others to come out into the fray, or the very least the open.
[20:27] <BradGM> . The Elf got impaled, feeling some form of damned connection between the Artefact and her assailant. Then, from the road came a trio of horsemen, who jumped into the fray. Siluvaine fell off her horse unconscious, the extraordinary resilient Gor ripping her backpack to reach the Artefact.
[20:27] <BradGM> . A combined effort was needed to take it down, and another one, which left, as hypnotised, the melee with Alexi and Ulrich. After the Beastmen were either dead and running, Ulrich brought back Edgerrin and Siluvaine from Morr’s grap.
[20:27] <BradGM> One of the Horsemen began imposing himself upon the party, ‘we saved your lives, you answer our questions’. He inquires about Gerhard Kroen, the man buried in Morrspark, his tomb marked with a twin-tailed comet with a crossed sword and Hammer within, flanked by the letter O and F; killed in an Altquartier alley which lead to Father Morden’s Skaven assassin. He also asks about the Artefact...
[20:28] <BradGM> Handcrossbow man "You, Elf, you spoke of the Temple of Ulric..What say them of this?"
[20:30] <Ulrich> (say something lol)

[20:31] <@BradGM> HCM "Really?..Who is sending you do this?"
[20:31] * Aithorn walks over to Ulric, "Since we aren't likely to be going anywhere soon, could you take a look at my arm?"
[20:32] <Aithorn> ((Ulrich))
[20:32] <+Ulrich> (uh, yeah sure)
[20:32] * +Siluvaine brushes at some of the blood left over from her wounds.
[20:32] <+Ulrich> (looks, its still attatched :P ))
[20:33] * +Alexi is still leaning on his axe
[20:33] <+Ulrich> (didn't i heal you last time?)
[20:34] <+Alexi> (Me? I don't remember. Maybe a little?)
[20:34] <+Siluvaine> "Father Ranuff."
[20:34] <@BradGM> Otto "High-Priest Liebnitz heard of my troulbing vision and insisted to send forth those brave soul, who helped the Watch get rido of an assassin, to secure this foul thing to deny it to the northern hordes."
[20:34] <Aithorn> ((Not me))
[20:34] <+Ulrich> (i meant Aithorn, i healed you a lot)

[20:38] <@BradGM> ((for chaos!))
[20:38] * +Siluvaine eyes the strangers.
[20:38] * Aithorn looks up from testing a bandage on his arm, "Apart from escaping from it's prison and calling out to its servants, this one is practically a stone."
[20:39] * +Ulrich whispers "should we really be talking and telling these men so much, we don't know them?"
[20:40] <+Alexi> "Hy dun tink ve heff much option, yah?"
[20:40] <Aithorn> "They certainly act the part of witch hunters, what do you think they'll do if we don't cooperate?"
[20:40] * @Edgerrin lies on the ground saying nothing
[20:40] <@BradGM> HCM "Calling out his servants? How? did it affect your dreams? Made a sound? Did nothing you could detect?"
[20:41] <+Alexi> <to the HCM> "De skull vould escape from der box effen ven ve used rope."
[20:41] * +Ulrich wispers we are under the protection of the temple of Ulric right?"
[20:42] * +Ulrich whispers to father Otto "Will these men be a problem father?"
[20:42] <@BradGM> HCM "Escape you say, Komrad Kossar? Did you hear any sound? Felt your hair on your neck rise up?"
[20:43] * +Siluvaine shakes her head. "Nothing like that. Just..out."
[20:43] <+Alexi> "No, hy heard nozzing. Hy vould only see der skull sittinik on de bag dot ve had de box in."

[20:45] <@BradGM> HCM "how does the Temple of Ulric plan on destroying or securing this thing?"
[20:46] <+Alexi> "Hy dun know. Hy chust supposed to protect de priest."
[20:46] * +Siluvaine shrugs. "They did not tell us, just to use the box to get it to the city so they can secure it and keep it from the Beastmen."
[20:46] * Aithorn "It belongs to the Grey Slayer, they have not told us. I intended to send to my people who have ways of dealing with things like this."
[20:49] <+Ulrich> "our job is just to get Father Otto here to the tainted artifact, retreive it, and get him and the artifact back safely. Nothing more, nothing less."
[20:49] <@BradGM> HCM "We are quite capable of handling such matters ourselves Elf; or did you forget your people gave us 'magic'?"
[20:50] <+Ulrich> "it is up to them to dispose of this horrible thing after that, this was the deal."
[20:50] <Aithorn> "You seemed the part of witch hunters, not magi lords, forgive me the mistake."
[20:51] <+Ulrich> "could we please be on our way, there could be more evil looking for this thing, and a lot more deadly than a few beasties"
[20:51] <+Ulrich> "accompany us if you wish, we speak the truth, but we should not dally here"
[20:54] <@BradGM> HCM "You test my patience you insolent welp. Be that as it may, we shall escort you to Middenheim just be certain of the vivacity of your claims. I will have no trouble judging you in front of the Gates if you even look back to escape."
[20:55] <+Alexi> "Dot is goot. De more guards ve heff for dis, de better."
[20:55] * +Siluvaine shrugs. "I'm sure your help will be appreciated."

[21:08] <+Ulrich> (yeah)
[21:08] * +Ulrich points to Edgerrin
[21:09] <@BradGM> The HCM looks to the man in chainmail armour. He gets down from his warhorse and begins checking up on Edgerrin. Ulrich, you see that he has a black molded leather bag, which contained silver medical instruments; Real medical instruments, not crude tools like you have. He applies some whitish paste to the instruments before working on Edgerrin

[21:10] * @Edgerrin slowly gets up
[21:11] <+Ulrich> "pardon me sir, but where did you get such wonderful medical equipment?"
[21:11] <@Edgerrin> 6 his left arm still hangs limply at his side.
[21:11] <@BradGM> HCM to Aithron "Know we are only soldiers in the War against Chaos, Elf...And do be considerate enough to not associate me with the like of Magisters, 'least I come to beleive you wish me take offence..."
[21:12] <+Aithorn> ((he's a wizard, he's not a wizard, next up is Parakeet if i'm not mistaken))

[21:13] <@Edgerrin> "Me thanks."

[21:15] <+Aithorn> ((lol))
[21:15] <+Ulrich> (he don't like me at all)
[21:15] * Siluvaine gets back on her horse, moving carefully since she's still somewhat wounded.
[21:16] <@BradGM> chainmail man "Hm. No. You are quite below me in terms of knowledge, you would only bore me, and I will only confuse you."
[21:16] <+Alexi> ((hell, with that roll *I* don't like you))
[21:16] <@BradGM> ((hahah))
[21:16] <+Aithorn> ((hahaha))
[21:17] <@BradGM> Siluvaine, healing your horse would require an animal care roll; but it is a tough lil, norscan horse, it can still trot for a few hours.
[21:17] * +Ulrich stairs at him for a second, and just walks away "fine"
[21:17] <@BradGM> Alexi, you are in the back with the Demi-lance/two-handed axe horseman, he seems to be checking the tail as well as checking for you.*&*
[21:18] * +Alexi seems unconcerned
[21:18] <@BradGM> ((What, he got top gear- you got a razor and a hack saw..))
[21:19] <+Ulrich> (its ok, what goes around comes around)
[21:19] <@BradGM> ((heh))
[21:19] <Siluvaine> ((My horse actually took damage?))
[21:19] <@BradGM> You spend the rest of the day walking on the road, and reaching the Coaching Inn well before sunset. It is unoccupied excpet by a patrol of Outriders, which the HCM enduct into his service at elast until you reach Middenheim.
[21:20] <@BradGM> ((Some.. or not, I think it parried it?..))
[21:20] * +Ulrich get off that damned horse, you'll kill it and reopen yoru own wounds to boot with the motion"
[21:20] <+Ulrich> (your not clint eastwood :P))
[21:21] <@BradGM> ((yeah the horse parried the gor's horn attack..only in warhammer!))
[21:22] <+Ulrich> (Horses can fight off wolves in real life, so its not so far fetched)
[21:23] <@BradGM> The good news is that you also get to sleep in a room for free, as the Ordo Fidelis Templars requester hospitality in the name of Sigmar and the Emperor, Karl Franz. The bad news is you got a possessed Artefact, 3 witch Hunters and four Outriders watching over you and it.
[21:24] * Siluvaine claims a bath and a bedroom for the night if they're staying at the Inn.
[21:24] <Siluvaine> ((BRB)
[21:24] <+Ulrich> (sounds like its time to have a beer or two on sigmars hospitality!!)
[21:24] <+Aithorn> ((Is this the same coaching inn where Otto had his fit?))
[21:24] <@BradGM> ((True, but that would be wild horse, not your average riding horse; granted, Norsca being waht it is, hordeses there, even domiesticated ones, must be of a stronger breed.))
[21:24] <@BradGM> ((yes, the same.))
[21:24] <+Ulrich> (yup, i always thought of them as mustangs)
[21:24] * +Alexi gets a drink and plans on falling asleep leaning against the wall
[21:25] <+Ulrich> (smaller but really tough)
[21:25] <@BradGM> ((good image))
[21:25] * @Edgerrin looks for the ionkeepimng and requests a hot bath to wash his wounds. He'll also ask if they have and cloth to wrap his arm in.
[21:25] <+Ulrich> (and violent as hell)
[21:25] <@Edgerrin> *innkeeper
[21:26] <+Ulrich> I got the cloth, but something not out on the road for a few days would probably be cleaner
[21:26] <+Ulrich> ( )
[21:26] <@BradGM> The Innkeeper gets hot water ready and clean cloth prepared for you Edgerrin, without a certain degree of nervousness.
[21:26] <@BradGM> ((and make sence; since those horses would ahve been descendants of those brought back from rids from the EMpire, Kislev, Bretonnia..))
[21:26] * +Ulrich busies himself with his free beers and cleaning his medical equipment and gear
[21:26] * +Aithorn will also get a tall stein of ale and sets about cleaning his bandages and his trophy
[21:27] * +Ulrich prays some over his medical equipment to Shallya and then sigmar, to keep them free of taint and desease
[21:28] <@BradGM> Ulirch, after 2 beers, the HCM tells you that his generosity have reached his limit and you must pay for your own drinks; the others can enjoy up to thier toughness value before he tells you to pay.
[21:28] <+Ulrich> (crude they may be, but damn it they will be as clean as i can make em)
[21:28] <@BradGM> ((hehehe))
[21:29] <+Ulrich> (ok, just sipping on them, not trying to get dead drunk)
[21:29] * @Edgerrin orders a drink and slides it to Ulrich when the pompous ass from hell isnt looking))
[21:30] * +Ulrich muttering "below me in knowldge he says, confuse me he says..."
[21:30] <@BradGM> You also get to see the faces of your new companion; the HCM is a man in his 30s, short black hair, blue eyes and a scar under his left eye; as the Priest of Morr described him. The Demi-lance one is a stern-looking squared jaw blond hiared man with half dozen scars all over his face. he chainmail man is a overweight, bald man with mutton chops, that doens't seems the fighitng type at all, nor does he strike yu as the proverbial image of a Witch Hunter you all know and fear.
[21:30] * +Ulrich "Well looky here, an unguarded ale, why thank you, its a blessing from the gods"
[21:31] * @Edgerrin will clean his arm the best he can and actually clean the rest of his body too getting rid of 2 years of odor in the process, then proceed to bed for a good nights rest.
[21:31] <+Ulrich> (2 years? wtf?)
[21:32] <@BradGM> ((dwarf don't fell or see time as humans do, that was like 2 months for him))
[21:32] <+Ulrich> (lol)
[21:32] <@Edgerrin> ((now i smell pretty))
[21:32] <+Ulrich> (you must hav reaked, no wonder the beastmen found us, they just followed his smell)
[21:33] <@BradGM> Except if you want or plan to do something perticular that night, ok if we FFWD?
[21:34] <+Ulrich> 9thinking the same thing)
[21:34] <+Aithorn> ((sounds good))
[21:34] <+Ulrich> (lets FFWD)
[21:34] * Edgerrin sets mode: +v Siluvaine
[21:34] * +Ulrich slaps Diceling a few times
[21:35] <+Ulrich> (roll better damn you)
[21:36] <+Siluvaine> ((Back, sorry))
[21:36] <@BradGM> Next Morning, you go under good guard toward Middenheim. As you go up the road toward the South Gate, the HCM tells you to forget about the Ordo Fidelis, their presence, everything; for everyone except you and the Gods, you were alone in the Darkwald all along, they were never there, they didn't helped to escort the Artefact back, no mention, no credit.
[21:37] <+Alexi> "Hokay by me."
[21:37] <+Ulrich> "Fine"
[21:37] <@BradGM> Otto "If you judge is iwse, so be it."
[21:38] * +Siluvaine doesn't seem too offput by the idea.
[21:38] <@Edgerrin> ((We get a point back for rest?))
[21:38] <@BradGM> Ah yes; you all get 1 wound back from the good night's rest at the Coaching Inn.
[21:39] <+Siluvaine> ((If you're lightly wounded, yeah))
[21:39] <@Edgerrin> ((woot doubled my total))
[21:39] * +Ulrich forgets but doesn't forget
[21:40] * +Siluvaine rides along, occasionally making sure the skull is still in place.
[21:40] <@BradGM> You arrive in Middenheim!..2 pennies per leg, 1 shilling per pair of horse's leg.
[21:41] <@BradGM> for the toll that is
[21:41] <@BradGM> After you paid the toll and enter the city..End of chapter 3!
[21:41] * +Aithorn bets Alexi the leg tax on the number of moths that fly out of Siluvaine's purse will be less than 2.
[21:42] <+Ulrich> (isn't somone supost to be there to greet us?"
[21:42] <+Ulrich> )
[21:42] <+Ulrich> (you know so we dont get killed on the spot with a chos artifact?)
[21:42] <@BradGM> ((At the Temple of Ulrich, not the Public South Gate, right smack in the middle of the popular district of the city.))
[21:43] <+Ulrich> (wow, ballzy, ok)
[21:44] <+Ulrich> (paid my 4 brass)
[21:44] <@BradGM> For the end of the chapter, get 175XP+30xp for staying damn later last session
[21:44] <+Alexi> so. First Career...there's nothing to spend XP on aside from the attribute boosts, right?
[21:44] <@BradGM> yes, only that
[21:45] <+Ulrich> (thats it? lol)
[21:45] <+Alexi> getting close to ready for my second career then ;p
[21:45] <@BradGM> ((yeah, since you begin with all trappings, skills and talents, you only got to buy your attributes to get it all done))
[21:46] <+Ulrich> (ulric is shrewed with his xp...)
[21:47] <+Ulrich> (note to self: dont work for the church)
[21:47] <@BradGM> ((why? it's a damn good employer and you got a god on your side for rael!))
[21:48] <@BradGM> Feel free to psend your XP, let me know when you're done, when we're all ready we'll begin Chapter 4.
[21:48] <+Ulrich> (and all the physical and soul shredding dangers that come with it :P )
[21:48] <@Edgerrin> ((all done. Had 300 xp and 3 skills left to buy))
[21:49] <+Aithorn> ((I'm done with kithband warrior, i'm saving the xp until i can get a horse and advance to scout unless Ulrich wants to let me borrow his))
[21:49] <@BradGM> ((I thought only Siluvaine and Alexi took horses?))
[21:49] <+Ulrich> ( i dont have a horse, i dont like em)
[21:50] <+Aithorn> ((unless i turn to cattle rustler instead, someone with a horse))
[21:50] <+Ulrich> (sigmar walked, I can too)
[21:50] <+Aithorn> ((so did barry bonds most times, but still...))
[21:51] <+Alexi> I need...a crossbow with 10 bolts, a net, and a rope
[21:51] <+Alexi> oh, and manacles
[21:52] <+Alexi> then I can switch to Bounty Hunter :D
[21:52] <@Edgerrin> ((bounty hunter eh?))
[21:52] <@Edgerrin> ((I was thinking that too if i cant move on to giant slayer))
[21:52] <+Ulrich> (lol)
[21:52] <@BradGM> crossbow and rope should be easy, manacles can be gotten via your watch job..net..bit harder to get, but doable
[21:52] <+Alexi> (well, it's the stepping stone to Vampire Hunter)
[21:53] <+Ulrich> (i got both, if you take off the trap string)
[21:53] <+Alexi> so how much will this cost me in cash?
[21:53] <+Siluvaine> ((done updating sheet))
[21:54] <+Ulrich> (whatever the crossbow is worth, im not exactly using it)
[21:54] <+Ulrich> (maybe a friends discount)
[21:54] <@Edgerrin> ((did those wH even notice out sigmar pendants when they were grilling us?))
[21:55] <@BradGM> ((Alexi: net+manacles for 8 Crowns; Ulrich it would be worth 15 Crowns with the trap rope installed.))
[21:55] <@BradGM> ((a crossbow is worth 25 crowns new.))
[21:55] <+Ulrich> (so 15 crowns and its yours)
[21:56] <@BradGM> ((the rope is 1 Crown))
[21:56] <+Ulrich> (14 then)
[21:56] <+Alexi> ((take 15 crowns then)
[21:56] <+Ulrich> (unless you need the rope)
[21:56] <+Ulrich> (Deal)
[21:57] <+Alexi> ((And I are now a Bounty Hunter))
[21:57] <+Siluvaine> ((did we get any reward from the church, or is that coming later?)
[21:57] <@BradGM> ((JUst to know;`are oyu shopping beofre dropping the skull or plan for after?))
[21:57] <+Alexi> ((I probably need to ddo that after))
[21:58] <+Ulrich> (i dont fancy having that thing lose in the city as much as i would like to shop)
[21:58] <@BradGM> ((You are at the South Gate; you are jsut enetering town and haven't dropped having; it,s a braek in the action to spend XP, thaT' sall..))
[21:59] <+Ulrich> (i honestly dont have that much gold to spend, so i would rather go dirrectly to the temple)
[21:59] <+Siluvaine> ((Ahh. Then yeah, directly to the temple))
[21:59] <+Aithorn> ((Temple, ho!))

[22:00] <@BradGM> Chapter 4
[22:01] <@BradGM> Being midday, most of the pople have taken refuge in a tavern or at home to eat thier dinner. The street is somewhat cleaned up to the Plague Monument (#9) and to the Fortress-like Temple of Ulric (#10).
[22:01] <@BradGM> http://dark-heresy.wikispaces.com/file/view/Middenheim%20nonname.JPG/553315720/Middenheim%20nonname.JPG
[22:02] <+Aithorn> ((BRB))
[22:02] * +Siluvaine checks the skull one last time to make sure its in its damned box. "Lets get this to the Temple as soon as possible."
[22:02] <+Alexi> "Agreed."
[22:03] <@BradGM> At the temple, You are quickly taken to a side office to see Father Ranulf, who arrivesd with a Steel box strengthen with Copper fitting and engraved wtih stranges runes.
[22:03] <+Alexi> "Dis odder box did not keep de skull inside."
[22:03] <@BradGM> Siluvaine, you can 'see' that the winds of Light magic surrounds that perticular box, rather than winds as if a snow storm as the wooden box is.
[22:05] * +Siluvaine gets the box out and pushes it to the Father. "Your box didn't keep the skull contained. You're lucky we made it back."
[22:06] <@BradGM> Ranulf "My, it appears it was as dangerous as thought; But do not despair; this box comes directly form the guild of Wizards and Alchemists, it si garanteed to keep any chaotic magic or force safe and isolaeted.
[22:07] <+Ulrich> "i would have them recheck it then, it did not work that simple or easily"
[22:08] <+Ulrich> "sooo...compensation??"
[22:08] <@BradGM> You put the skull, who was stuck between the rope and box, again, into the Steel case. You do not know if that done the trick, but Siluvaine can see some runes shining brightly as Ranulft closes the magical box.
[22:09] <+Ulrich> "i do not wish to be rude, but the ferther i am from that cursed thing the happier i will be"
[22:09] <+Aithorn> "Hopefully it will stay there this time."
[22:09] <@BradGM> Ranulf "Yes, of course, understandable, please way here while I got put this in our temple Vault."
[22:11] <+Ulrich> "I don't like this at all, this feels what me pa called "fisshy"
[22:12] <@BradGM> Father Ranulf takes the magical box, at arms' length, and exit the room quikcly, leaving you alone with Father Otto, who probes around for a chair and sits down, "oh, those old bones need a good rest.."
[22:12] * +Siluvaine pokes at the damage done to her clothing while she waits.
[22:12] <+Ulrich> "stop poking it"
[22:13] <+Ulrich> "you get run through like i've never seen before, and you poke at what was a little while ago a hole large enough for me to see through?"
[22:14] <@BradGM> Otto "you are too untrustworthy m'boy; Ranulf is a trusting man, I was his master during his formative years; I would not be surpised if he ends up high-Priest or more one day.."
[22:14] * +Ulrich rolls his eyes and is dumbfounded
[22:14] <+Aithorn> "Father, how did you find your taste of swordplay? Will you be able to return to your regular life at the temple?"
[22:14] <+Siluvaine> "I'm poking at the clothes, not the wound."
[22:14] <+Ulrich> "hands spread disease if not clean."
[22:15] <+Aithorn> ((Flies spread disease, so keep yours zipped up... lol))
[22:15] <+Ulrich> ( along with my bag of healing perhaps? :P lol )
[22:16] <@BradGM> Otto "Well, lacking, if not downright humiliating for a Sword of Ulric..but it was just a final sortie raelly; I have been in the temple of, oh close to 15 years now; and while I almost died I would return it tomorrow if need be; but let us be realists; my blindness hinders me greatly, and my safe return was owned to you and Ulric's guidance."
[22:17] <+Ulrich> me smiles "we made a rather good team guting a few beasies though"
[22:17] <@BradGM> Otto "The important thing that..thing is safely out of reach of those fiends, we all came back in one piece, and with scars to prove our worth! I cannot ask for more than this!"
[22:18] <+Alexi> "Vell, von uf dem could heff had a nize hat to take."
[22:18] * +Ulrich "i will come see you from time to time after this is all said and done father"
[22:19] <@BradGM> Otto "Of course! I would delight in recieving visitors, I consider you all friends; and I hope you all think the same of me."
[22:19] * +Ulrich "without question, my dear grumpy old man! hahaha!"
[22:20] <+Siluvaine> "Of course."
[22:21] <@BradGM> Father Ranulf Returns with a small chest "Please excuse the wait; I have spoken with High-Priest Liebnitz and he autorized the payment of 30 Gold Crowns per individuals for your assitance to the templ of Ulric, alongside a medaillon of Ulric as payment. I hope this will be satisfactory."
[22:23] <+Ulrich> " that will be fine for me"
[22:23] <+Ulrich> "do you need the armor back?"
[22:23] <@BradGM> Ranulf "The Temple, of course, expect your discretion conserning this matter. We do not wish to create a panic or alert any Worshippers of the Dark ogds of the rpesence of that Artefact within the City walls."
[22:24] <@BradGM> Ranulf "Yes; the loaned items are to be returned to us now, please."
[22:24] <+Ulrich> "damn"
[22:24] <+Ulrich> could i per chance buy them from the temple?"
[22:24] * +Siluvaine considers the amount.
[22:25] <@BradGM> Remove any items you took from the Temple armoury. You all gain 30 gold Cowns and a silver wolf head's pendant, a holy Symbol of Ulric, owrth 5 Crowns.
[22:25] * +Aithorn bows, "Thank you. Could you perhaps also tell me where Grimminhagen is, I have an errand there but do not know where it is?"
[22:25] <@BradGM> Ranulf "I'm quite afraid we do not sell our own gear."
[22:25] <+Ulrich> "that is unfortunete"
[22:26] * +Ulrich removes the chain
[22:26] <@Edgerrin> "Father, Do can ya do anything for me arm?"
[22:27] <@BradGM> Ranulf "Gimminhagen? Yes, I would need to consult our maps..but for now, with our affairs in order, might I offer you a drink to celebrate this closure? A Bretonnian Brandy Oh my my, almost sinful so much it is delivcious.*
[22:27] <@BradGM> Ranulf "I am sure I can at least see this wound my friend.."
[22:27] * +Siluvaine considers then shrugs. "Thirty crowns and the amulet would be fine. Is there anyway the Temple could provide help with healing as well?"
[22:28] * @Edgerrin smiles 1"Thank ye father."
[22:29] <@BradGM> Edgerrin, Father Ranulf looks over your arm, "It appears the muslce were crushed; I would recommend a couple of days of complete rest and no excess stress put on the arm; your strength shoudl return in time."
[22:29] <@BradGM> ((He cannot do a heal over the heal already done; and he does not know any healing magic))
[22:29] * @Edgerrin nods 1"Thank ye again"
[22:30] <+Ulrich> "I will pass on the drink, but I thank you. I wish to be on my way and get some supper and rest"
[22:30] <+Ulrich> "the road and travels have been trying"
[22:31] <@BradGM> ((it's about 1 PM))
[22:31] <+Ulrich> (supper can be lunch or dinner)
[22:31] <@BradGM> ((supper, lunch? heresy!))
[22:31] <+Aithorn> ((I'm waiting for information, I'll sit and enjoy a good wine in the meantime))
[22:31] * @Edgerrin passed on drinking once in the last 24 hours, so he thinks it would be sacrilage if he passed again and accepts the drink.
[22:31] <+Ulrich> ( welcome to the south =D ))
[22:32] <@BradGM> Otto "You tempt me with that brandy of yours again Ranulf! I'd take a glass but wiht my wounds, I'd settle for water for today hehe..."
[22:32] * +Siluvaine shrugs. "The drink would be fine."
[22:34] <@BradGM> Ranulf gets some glasses out and a bottle of Eau-de-Vie Vieilli de Coulombe 1545. He also calls a initiate for some water for Father Otto.
[22:35] <@BradGM> He pours a glass for you all, expect Ulrich and Otto, and begins looks into a large tome named Codex Imperialis, for those who can read; for the others,you can see it is a tome filled with coloums of texts, maps, drawings of animals and plants and buildings etc etc..
[22:36] * +Siluvaine peers at the codex curiously as she sips the brandy.
[22:36] <@BradGM> The Brandy itself is quite delivous, a nice smooth texture with jsut the right ammount of sting to give it a good aftertaste.
[22:37] <@BradGM> it is in classical, from weaht you can see quickly it appears to be a encyclopedia or compendendum of the Empire.
[22:37] <@BradGM> The initiate returns with a pitcher of water for Father Otto."
[22:38] <@BradGM> Ranulft "so, Grimminhagen you said? would you know in which province it is located?"
[22:39] <+Aithorn> "Sadly, I do not"
[22:39] <@BradGM> Ranulf "Hm, no worries, I would need ot consult the Index, it would require little longer, I lack the skills of a Scibe."
[22:40] <@BradGM> Ranulf check the index for a hiel and turns a few pages here and there "Ah, there it is, Grimminhagen."
[22:41] * +Siluvaine occasionally sips, while remaining mostly quiet, looking over the book.
[22:41] <@BradGM> Ranulf "It is in Middenland, how curious. I am from Nordland myself so I am not as familiar with this province as my own."
[22:41] <@BradGM> Otto "Arrghh!"
[22:41] <@BradGM> otto suddenly scrwms of pain and fals off his chair!
[22:41] <+Ulrich> "whaa..."
[22:41] * +Siluvaine turns towards Otto at the sound of his pain. She moves towards him. "Father Otto?"
[22:42] <@BradGM> Ranulf looks up from his book "Otto!"
[22:42] <+Ulrich> "Whats wrong with him?"
[22:42] * @Edgerrin looks at the commotion
[22:42] <@BradGM> Father otto begins to confulse and shake on the floor. "Arrghh!Blargh!2
[22:42] <+Aithorn> "Thank you, very much, ....what is this?"
[22:43] <@BradGM> He twists and turns in visibly pain, holding his sides.
[22:43] * +Ulrich is shocked motionless"
[22:44] * @Edgerrin stares unsure what to do
[22:44] <+Alexi> "Vot is...are ve attacked?"
[22:44] <+Ulrich> "some one call for help!"
[22:45] <+Ulrich> "help Father Otto is convulsing!"
[22:45] * +Siluvaine turns on Ranulf. "You have medics in the Temple? Healers?"
[22:46] <@BradGM> There seems to be something large that wants to come out of the side of Father otto's head. "Aaaahh.." *Suddnely, a diformed, bloody, seocnd head forced itself out of Otto's head, occupying his left shoudler "AAAAArrgh!" He hold his original head in his hands, which turns into a gelatinous-like subsance, his fingers merging together.
[22:46] <+Ulrich> "is it another vision?"
[22:46] * Kane-DK (Kane-DK@336-33-761-71.lightspeed.sndgca.sbcglobal.net) has joined #shadowrun
[22:46] <+Ulrich> (fuck, fight time i bet)
[22:46] <+Aithorn> "Fortunately, we have priests nearby."
[22:46] * +Aithorn steps between Ranulf and Otto
[22:47] <@BradGM> Otto's skin turns green, similar to a frgos, but with a leathery quality ot it. The old Priest's arms are nothing more now than tentacles like that of a squid, into only covered in torns, like a rose.
[22:47] <@BradGM> Everyone roll WP!

[23:08] <@BradGM> *End of Session***
[20:27] <BradGM> Battle was joined; Edgerrin was overtaken quickly and fell during the initial onslaught of the Ungors, even Father Otto had to pitch in or die. Alexi took upon himself to provoke the Gors, which worked in an unpredictable way; one of the Beastsmen charged Siluvaine, forcing the others to come out into the fray, or the very least the open.
[20:27] <BradGM> . The Elf got impaled, feeling some form of damned connection between the Artefact and her assailant. Then, from the road came a trio of horsemen, who jumped into the fray. Siluvaine fell off her horse unconscious, the extraordinary resilient Gor ripping her backpack to reach the Artefact.
[20:27] <BradGM> . A combined effort was needed to take it down, and another one, which left, as hypnotised, the melee with Alexi and Ulrich. After the Beastmen were either dead and running, Ulrich brought back Edgerrin and Siluvaine from Morr’s grap.
[20:27] <BradGM> One of the Horsemen began imposing himself upon the party, ‘we saved your lives, you answer our questions’. He inquires about Gerhard Kroen, the man buried in Morrspark, his tomb marked with a twin-tailed comet with a crossed sword and Hammer within, flanked by the letter O and F; killed in an Altquartier alley which lead to Father Morden’s Skaven assassin. He also asks about the Artefact...
[20:28] <BradGM> Handcrossbow man "You, Elf, you spoke of the Temple of Ulric..What say them of this?"

[20:46] * +Siluvaine shrugs. "They did not tell us, just to use the box to get it to the city so they can secure it and keep it from the Beastmen."
[20:46] * Aithorn "It belongs to the Grey Slayer, they have not told us. I intended to send to my people who have ways of dealing with things like this."
[20:49] <+Ulrich> "our job is just to get Father Otto here to the tainted artifact, retreive it, and get him and the artifact back safely. Nothing more, nothing less."

[21:09] <@BradGM> The HCM looks to the man in chainmail armour. He gets down from his warhorse and begins checking up on Edgerrin. Ulrich, you see that he has a black molded leather bag, which contained silver medical instruments; Real medical instruments, not crude tools like you have. He applies some whitish paste to the instruments before working on Edgerrin

[21:15] * Siluvaine gets back on her horse, moving carefully since she's still somewhat wounded.
[21:16] <@BradGM> chainmail man "Hm. No. You are quite below me in terms of knowledge, you would only bore me, and I will only confuse you."
[21:16] <+Alexi> ((hell, with that roll *I* don't like you))
[21:16] <@BradGM> ((hahah))
[21:16] <+Aithorn> ((hahaha))
[21:17] <@BradGM> Siluvaine, healing your horse would require an animal care roll; but it is a tough lil, norscan horse, it can still trot for a few hours.
[21:17] * +Ulrich stairs at him for a second, and just walks away "fine"
[21:17] <@BradGM> Alexi, you are in the back with the Demi-lance/two-handed axe horseman, he seems to be checking the tail as well as checking for you.*&*
[21:18] * +Alexi seems unconcerned
[21:18] <@BradGM> ((What, he got top gear- you got a razor and a hack saw..))
[21:19] <+Ulrich> (its ok, what goes around comes around)
[21:19] <@BradGM> ((heh))
[21:19] <Siluvaine> ((My horse actually took damage?))
[21:19] <@BradGM> You spend the rest of the day walking on the road, and reaching the Coaching Inn well before sunset. It is unoccupied excpet by a patrol of Outriders, which the HCM enduct into his service at elast until you reach Middenheim.
[21:20] <@BradGM> ((Some.. or not, I think it parried it?..))
[21:20] * +Ulrich get off that damned horse, you'll kill it and reopen yoru own wounds to boot with the motion"
[21:20] <+Ulrich> (your not clint eastwood :P))
[21:21] <@BradGM> ((yeah the horse parried the gor's horn attack..only in warhammer!))
[21:22] <+Ulrich> (Horses can fight off wolves in real life, so its not so far fetched)
[21:23] <@BradGM> The good news is that you also get to sleep in a room for free, as the Ordo Fidelis Templars requester hospitality in the name of Sigmar and the Emperor, Karl Franz. The bad news is you got a possessed Artefact, 3 witch Hunters and four Outriders watching over you and it.
[21:24] * Siluvaine claims a bath and a bedroom for the night if they're staying at the Inn.
[21:24] <Siluvaine> ((BRB)
[21:24] <+Ulrich> (sounds like its time to have a beer or two on sigmars hospitality!!)
[21:24] <+Aithorn> ((Is this the same coaching inn where Otto had his fit?))
[21:24] <@BradGM> ((True, but that would be wild horse, not your average riding horse; granted, Norsca being waht it is, hordeses there, even domiesticated ones, must be of a stronger breed.))
[21:24] <@BradGM> ((yes, the same.))
[21:24] <+Ulrich> (yup, i always thought of them as mustangs)
[21:24] * +Alexi gets a drink and plans on falling asleep leaning against the wall
[21:25] <+Ulrich> (smaller but really tough)
[21:25] <@BradGM> ((good image))
[21:25] * @Edgerrin looks for the ionkeepimng and requests a hot bath to wash his wounds. He'll also ask if they have and cloth to wrap his arm in.
[21:25] <+Ulrich> (and violent as hell)
[21:25] <@Edgerrin> *innkeeper
[21:26] <+Ulrich> I got the cloth, but something not out on the road for a few days would probably be cleaner
[21:26] <+Ulrich> ( )
[21:26] <@BradGM> The Innkeeper gets hot water ready and clean cloth prepared for you Edgerrin, without a certain degree of nervousness.
[21:26] <@BradGM> ((and make sence; since those horses would ahve been descendants of those brought back from rids from the EMpire, Kislev, Bretonnia..))
[21:26] * +Ulrich busies himself with his free beers and cleaning his medical equipment and gear
[21:26] * +Aithorn will also get a tall stein of ale and sets about cleaning his bandages and his trophy
[21:27] * +Ulrich prays some over his medical equipment to Shallya and then sigmar, to keep them free of taint and desease
[21:28] <@BradGM> Ulirch, after 2 beers, the HCM tells you that his generosity have reached his limit and you must pay for your own drinks; the others can enjoy up to thier toughness value before he tells you to pay.
[21:28] <+Ulrich> (crude they may be, but damn it they will be as clean as i can make em)
[21:28] <@BradGM> ((hehehe))
[21:29] <+Ulrich> (ok, just sipping on them, not trying to get dead drunk)
[21:29] * @Edgerrin orders a drink and slides it to Ulrich when the pompous ass from hell isnt looking))
[21:30] * +Ulrich muttering "below me in knowldge he says, confuse me he says..."
[21:30] <@BradGM> You also get to see the faces of your new companion; the HCM is a man in his 30s, short black hair, blue eyes and a scar under his left eye; as the Priest of Morr described him. The Demi-lance one is a stern-looking squared jaw blond hiared man with half dozen scars all over his face. he chainmail man is a overweight, bald man with mutton chops, that doens't seems the fighitng type at all, nor does he strike yu as the proverbial image of a Witch Hunter you all know and fear.
[21:30] * +Ulrich "Well looky here, an unguarded ale, why thank you, its a blessing from the gods"
[21:31] * @Edgerrin will clean his arm the best he can and actually clean the rest of his body too getting rid of 2 years of odor in the process, then proceed to bed for a good nights rest.
[21:31] <+Ulrich> (2 years? wtf?)
[21:32] <@BradGM> ((dwarf don't fell or see time as humans do, that was like 2 months for him))
[21:32] <+Ulrich> (lol)
[21:32] <@Edgerrin> ((now i smell pretty))
[21:32] <+Ulrich> (you must hav reaked, no wonder the beastmen found us, they just followed his smell)
[21:33] <@BradGM> Except if you want or plan to do something perticular that night, ok if we FFWD?
[21:34] <+Ulrich> 9thinking the same thing)
[21:34] <+Aithorn> ((sounds good))
[21:34] <+Ulrich> (lets FFWD)
[21:34] * Edgerrin sets mode: +v Siluvaine
[21:34] * +Ulrich slaps Diceling a few times
[21:35] <+Ulrich> (roll better damn you)
[21:36] <+Siluvaine> ((Back, sorry))
[21:36] <@BradGM> Next Morning, you go under good guard toward Middenheim. As you go up the road toward the South Gate, the HCM tells you to forget about the Ordo Fidelis, their presence, everything; for everyone except you and the Gods, you were alone in the Darkwald all along, they were never there, they didn't helped to escort the Artefact back, no mention, no credit.
[21:37] <+Alexi> "Hokay by me."
[21:37] <+Ulrich> "Fine"
[21:37] <@BradGM> Otto "If you judge is iwse, so be it."
[21:38] * +Siluvaine doesn't seem too offput by the idea.
[21:38] <@Edgerrin> ((We get a point back for rest?))
[21:38] <@BradGM> Ah yes; you all get 1 wound back from the good night's rest at the Coaching Inn.
[21:39] <+Siluvaine> ((If you're lightly wounded, yeah))
[21:39] <@Edgerrin> ((woot doubled my total))
[21:39] * +Ulrich forgets but doesn't forget
[21:40] * +Siluvaine rides along, occasionally making sure the skull is still in place.
[21:40] <@BradGM> You arrive in Middenheim!..2 pennies per leg, 1 shilling per pair of horse's leg.
[21:41] <@BradGM> for the toll that is
[21:41] <@BradGM> After you paid the toll and enter the city..End of chapter 3!
[21:41] * +Aithorn bets Alexi the leg tax on the number of moths that fly out of Siluvaine's purse will be less than 2.
[21:42] <+Ulrich> (isn't somone supost to be there to greet us?"
[21:42] <+Ulrich> )
[21:42] <+Ulrich> (you know so we dont get killed on the spot with a chos artifact?)
[21:42] <@BradGM> ((At the Temple of Ulrich, not the Public South Gate, right smack in the middle of the popular district of the city.))
[21:43] <+Ulrich> (wow, ballzy, ok)
[21:44] <+Ulrich> (paid my 4 brass)
[21:44] <@BradGM> For the end of the chapter, get 175XP+30xp for staying damn later last session
[21:44] <+Alexi> so. First Career...there's nothing to spend XP on aside from the attribute boosts, right?
[21:44] <@BradGM> yes, only that
[21:45] <+Ulrich> (thats it? lol)
[21:45] <+Alexi> getting close to ready for my second career then ;p
[21:45] <@BradGM> ((yeah, since you begin with all trappings, skills and talents, you only got to buy your attributes to get it all done))
[21:46] <+Ulrich> (ulric is shrewed with his xp...)
[21:47] <+Ulrich> (note to self: dont work for the church)
[21:47] <@BradGM> ((why? it's a damn good employer and you got a god on your side for rael!))
[21:48] <@BradGM> Feel free to psend your XP, let me know when you're done, when we're all ready we'll begin Chapter 4.
[21:48] <+Ulrich> (and all the physical and soul shredding dangers that come with it :P )
[21:48] <@Edgerrin> ((all done. Had 300 xp and 3 skills left to buy))
[21:49] <+Aithorn> ((I'm done with kithband warrior, i'm saving the xp until i can get a horse and advance to scout unless Ulrich wants to let me borrow his))
[21:49] <@BradGM> ((I thought only Siluvaine and Alexi took horses?))
[21:49] <+Ulrich> ( i dont have a horse, i dont like em)
[21:50] <+Aithorn> ((unless i turn to cattle rustler instead, someone with a horse))
[21:50] <+Ulrich> (sigmar walked, I can too)
[21:50] <+Aithorn> ((so did barry bonds most times, but still...))
[21:51] <+Alexi> I need...a crossbow with 10 bolts, a net, and a rope
[21:51] <+Alexi> oh, and manacles
[21:52] <+Alexi> then I can switch to Bounty Hunter :D
[21:52] <@Edgerrin> ((bounty hunter eh?))
[21:52] <@Edgerrin> ((I was thinking that too if i cant move on to giant slayer))
[21:52] <+Ulrich> (lol)
[21:52] <@BradGM> crossbow and rope should be easy, manacles can be gotten via your watch job..net..bit harder to get, but doable
[21:52] <+Alexi> (well, it's the stepping stone to Vampire Hunter)
[21:53] <+Ulrich> (i got both, if you take off the trap string)
[21:53] <+Alexi> so how much will this cost me in cash?
[21:53] <+Siluvaine> ((done updating sheet))
[21:54] <+Ulrich> (whatever the crossbow is worth, im not exactly using it)
[21:54] <+Ulrich> (maybe a friends discount)
[21:54] <@Edgerrin> ((did those wH even notice out sigmar pendants when they were grilling us?))
[21:55] <@BradGM> ((Alexi: net+manacles for 8 Crowns; Ulrich it would be worth 15 Crowns with the trap rope installed.))
[21:55] <@BradGM> ((a crossbow is worth 25 crowns new.))
[21:55] <+Ulrich> (so 15 crowns and its yours)
[21:56] <@BradGM> ((the rope is 1 Crown))
[21:56] <+Ulrich> (14 then)
[21:56] <+Alexi> ((take 15 crowns then)
[21:56] <+Ulrich> (unless you need the rope)
[21:56] <+Ulrich> (Deal)
[21:57] <+Alexi> ((And I are now a Bounty Hunter))
[21:57] <+Siluvaine> ((did we get any reward from the church, or is that coming later?)
[21:57] <@BradGM> ((JUst to know;`are oyu shopping beofre dropping the skull or plan for after?))
[21:57] <+Alexi> ((I probably need to ddo that after))
[21:58] <+Ulrich> (i dont fancy having that thing lose in the city as much as i would like to shop)
[21:58] <@BradGM> ((You are at the South Gate; you are jsut enetering town and haven't dropped having; it,s a braek in the action to spend XP, thaT' sall..))
[21:59] <+Ulrich> (i honestly dont have that much gold to spend, so i would rather go dirrectly to the temple)
[21:59] <+Siluvaine> ((Ahh. Then yeah, directly to the temple))
[21:59] <+Aithorn> ((Temple, ho!))

[22:00] <@BradGM> Chapter 4
[22:01] <@BradGM> Being midday, most of the pople have taken refuge in a tavern or at home to eat thier dinner. The street is somewhat cleaned up to the Plague Monument (#9) and to the Fortress-like Temple of Ulric (#10).
[22:01] <@BradGM> http://dark-heresy.wikispaces.com/file/view/Middenheim%20nonname.JPG/553315720/Middenheim%20nonname.JPG
[22:02] <+Aithorn> ((BRB))
[22:02] * +Siluvaine checks the skull one last time to make sure its in its damned box. "Lets get this to the Temple as soon as possible."
[22:02] <+Alexi> "Agreed."
[22:03] <@BradGM> At the temple, You are quickly taken to a side office to see Father Ranulf, who arrivesd with a Steel box strengthen with Copper fitting and engraved wtih stranges runes.
[22:03] <+Alexi> "Dis odder box did not keep de skull inside."
[22:03] <@BradGM> Siluvaine, you can 'see' that the winds of Light magic surrounds that perticular box, rather than winds as if a snow storm as the wooden box is.
[22:05] * +Siluvaine gets the box out and pushes it to the Father. "Your box didn't keep the skull contained. You're lucky we made it back."
[22:06] <@BradGM> Ranulf "My, it appears it was as dangerous as thought; But do not despair; this box comes directly form the guild of Wizards and Alchemists, it si garanteed to keep any chaotic magic or force safe and isolaeted.
[22:07] <+Ulrich> "i would have them recheck it then, it did not work that simple or easily"
[22:08] <+Ulrich> "sooo...compensation??"
[22:08] <@BradGM> You put the skull, who was stuck between the rope and box, again, into the Steel case. You do not know if that done the trick, but Siluvaine can see some runes shining brightly as Ranulft closes the magical box.
[22:09] <+Ulrich> "i do not wish to be rude, but the ferther i am from that cursed thing the happier i will be"
[22:09] <+Aithorn> "Hopefully it will stay there this time."
[22:09] <@BradGM> Ranulf "Yes, of course, understandable, please way here while I got put this in our temple Vault."
[22:11] <+Ulrich> "I don't like this at all, this feels what me pa called "fisshy"
[22:12] <@BradGM> Father Ranulf takes the magical box, at arms' length, and exit the room quikcly, leaving you alone with Father Otto, who probes around for a chair and sits down, "oh, those old bones need a good rest.."
[22:12] * +Siluvaine pokes at the damage done to her clothing while she waits.
[22:12] <+Ulrich> "stop poking it"
[22:13] <+Ulrich> "you get run through like i've never seen before, and you poke at what was a little while ago a hole large enough for me to see through?"
[22:14] <@BradGM> Otto "you are too untrustworthy m'boy; Ranulf is a trusting man, I was his master during his formative years; I would not be surpised if he ends up high-Priest or more one day.."
[22:14] * +Ulrich rolls his eyes and is dumbfounded
[22:14] <+Aithorn> "Father, how did you find your taste of swordplay? Will you be able to return to your regular life at the temple?"
[22:14] <+Siluvaine> "I'm poking at the clothes, not the wound."
[22:14] <+Ulrich> "hands spread disease if not clean."
[22:15] <+Aithorn> ((Flies spread disease, so keep yours zipped up... lol))
[22:15] <+Ulrich> ( along with my bag of healing perhaps? :P lol )
[22:16] <@BradGM> Otto "Well, lacking, if not downright humiliating for a Sword of Ulric..but it was just a final sortie raelly; I have been in the temple of, oh close to 15 years now; and while I almost died I would return it tomorrow if need be; but let us be realists; my blindness hinders me greatly, and my safe return was owned to you and Ulric's guidance."
[22:17] <+Ulrich> me smiles "we made a rather good team guting a few beasies though"
[22:17] <@BradGM> Otto "The important thing that..thing is safely out of reach of those fiends, we all came back in one piece, and with scars to prove our worth! I cannot ask for more than this!"
[22:18] <+Alexi> "Vell, von uf dem could heff had a nize hat to take."
[22:18] * +Ulrich "i will come see you from time to time after this is all said and done father"
[22:19] <@BradGM> Otto "Of course! I would delight in recieving visitors, I consider you all friends; and I hope you all think the same of me."
[22:19] * +Ulrich "without question, my dear grumpy old man! hahaha!"
[22:20] <+Siluvaine> "Of course."
[22:21] <@BradGM> Father Ranulf Returns with a small chest "Please excuse the wait; I have spoken with High-Priest Liebnitz and he autorized the payment of 30 Gold Crowns per individuals for your assitance to the templ of Ulric, alongside a medaillon of Ulric as payment. I hope this will be satisfactory."
[22:23] <+Ulrich> " that will be fine for me"
[22:23] <+Ulrich> "do you need the armor back?"
[22:23] <@BradGM> Ranulf "The Temple, of course, expect your discretion conserning this matter. We do not wish to create a panic or alert any Worshippers of the Dark ogds of the rpesence of that Artefact within the City walls."
[22:24] <@BradGM> Ranulf "Yes; the loaned items are to be returned to us now, please."
[22:24] <+Ulrich> "damn"
[22:24] <+Ulrich> could i per chance buy them from the temple?"
[22:24] * +Siluvaine considers the amount.
[22:25] <@BradGM> Remove any items you took from the Temple armoury. You all gain 30 gold Cowns and a silver wolf head's pendant, a holy Symbol of Ulric, owrth 5 Crowns.
[22:25] * +Aithorn bows, "Thank you. Could you perhaps also tell me where Grimminhagen is, I have an errand there but do not know where it is?"
[22:25] <@BradGM> Ranulf "I'm quite afraid we do not sell our own gear."
[22:25] <+Ulrich> "that is unfortunete"
[22:26] * +Ulrich removes the chain
[22:26] <@Edgerrin> "Father, Do can ya do anything for me arm?"
[22:27] <@BradGM> Ranulf "Gimminhagen? Yes, I would need to consult our maps..but for now, with our affairs in order, might I offer you a drink to celebrate this closure? A Bretonnian Brandy Oh my my, almost sinful so much it is delivcious.*
[22:27] <@BradGM> Ranulf "I am sure I can at least see this wound my friend.."
[22:27] * +Siluvaine considers then shrugs. "Thirty crowns and the amulet would be fine. Is there anyway the Temple could provide help with healing as well?"
[22:28] * @Edgerrin smiles 1"Thank ye father."
[22:29] <@BradGM> Edgerrin, Father Ranulf looks over your arm, "It appears the muslce were crushed; I would recommend a couple of days of complete rest and no excess stress put on the arm; your strength shoudl return in time."
[22:29] <@BradGM> ((He cannot do a heal over the heal already done; and he does not know any healing magic))
[22:29] * @Edgerrin nods 1"Thank ye again"
[22:30] <+Ulrich> "I will pass on the drink, but I thank you. I wish to be on my way and get some supper and rest"
[22:30] <+Ulrich> "the road and travels have been trying"
[22:31] <@BradGM> ((it's about 1 PM))
[22:31] <+Ulrich> (supper can be lunch or dinner)
[22:31] <@BradGM> ((supper, lunch? heresy!))
[22:31] <+Aithorn> ((I'm waiting for information, I'll sit and enjoy a good wine in the meantime))
[22:31] * @Edgerrin passed on drinking once in the last 24 hours, so he thinks it would be sacrilage if he passed again and accepts the drink.
[22:31] <+Ulrich> ( welcome to the south =D ))
[22:32] <@BradGM> Otto "You tempt me with that brandy of yours again Ranulf! I'd take a glass but wiht my wounds, I'd settle for water for today hehe..."
[22:32] * +Siluvaine shrugs. "The drink would be fine."
[22:34] <@BradGM> Ranulf gets some glasses out and a bottle of Eau-de-Vie Vieilli de Coulombe 1545. He also calls a initiate for some water for Father Otto.
[22:35] <@BradGM> He pours a glass for you all, expect Ulrich and Otto, and begins looks into a large tome named Codex Imperialis, for those who can read; for the others,you can see it is a tome filled with coloums of texts, maps, drawings of animals and plants and buildings etc etc..
[22:36] * +Siluvaine peers at the codex curiously as she sips the brandy.
[22:36] <@BradGM> The Brandy itself is quite delivous, a nice smooth texture with jsut the right ammount of sting to give it a good aftertaste.
[22:37] <@BradGM> it is in classical, from weaht you can see quickly it appears to be a encyclopedia or compendendum of the Empire.
[22:37] <@BradGM> The initiate returns with a pitcher of water for Father Otto."
[22:38] <@BradGM> Ranulft "so, Grimminhagen you said? would you know in which province it is located?"
[22:39] <+Aithorn> "Sadly, I do not"
[22:39] <@BradGM> Ranulf "Hm, no worries, I would need ot consult the Index, it would require little longer, I lack the skills of a Scibe."
[22:40] <@BradGM> Ranulf check the index for a hiel and turns a few pages here and there "Ah, there it is, Grimminhagen."
[22:41] * +Siluvaine occasionally sips, while remaining mostly quiet, looking over the book.
[22:41] <@BradGM> Ranulf "It is in Middenland, how curious. I am from Nordland myself so I am not as familiar with this province as my own."
[22:41] <@BradGM> Otto "Arrghh!"
[22:41] <@BradGM> otto suddenly scrwms of pain and fals off his chair!
[22:41] <+Ulrich> "whaa..."
[22:41] * +Siluvaine turns towards Otto at the sound of his pain. She moves towards him. "Father Otto?"
[22:42] <@BradGM> Ranulf looks up from his book "Otto!"
[22:42] <+Ulrich> "Whats wrong with him?"
[22:42] * @Edgerrin looks at the commotion
[22:42] <@BradGM> Father otto begins to confulse and shake on the floor. "Arrghh!Blargh!2
[22:42] <+Aithorn> "Thank you, very much, ....what is this?"
[22:43] <@BradGM> He twists and turns in visibly pain, holding his sides.
[22:43] * +Ulrich is shocked motionless"
[22:44] * @Edgerrin stares unsure what to do
[22:44] <+Alexi> "Vot is...are ve attacked?"
[22:44] <+Ulrich> "some one call for help!"
[22:45] <+Ulrich> "help Father Otto is convulsing!"
[22:45] * +Siluvaine turns on Ranulf. "You have medics in the Temple? Healers?"
[22:46] <@BradGM> There seems to be something large that wants to come out of the side of Father otto's head. "Aaaahh.." *Suddnely, a diformed, bloody, seocnd head forced itself out of Otto's head, occupying his left shoudler "AAAAArrgh!" He hold his original head in his hands, which turns into a gelatinous-like subsance, his fingers merging together.
[22:46] <+Ulrich> "is it another vision?"
[22:46] * Kane-DK (Kane-DK@336-33-761-71.lightspeed.sndgca.sbcglobal.net) has joined #shadowrun
[22:46] <+Ulrich> (fuck, fight time i bet)
[22:46] <+Aithorn> "Fortunately, we have priests nearby."
[22:46] * +Aithorn steps between Ranulf and Otto
[22:47] <@BradGM> Otto's skin turns green, similar to a frgos, but with a leathery quality ot it. The old Priest's arms are nothing more now than tentacles like that of a squid, into only covered in torns, like a rose.
[22:47] <@BradGM> Everyone roll WP!
