00:10:24 >[Wolftooth] Razor requests that you join them in the Woodlands room.

00:10:24 >[Wolftooth] Welcome to our role-playing chat. Obey the net etiquette while chatting: be pleasant and polite .

00:10:56 [Razor ] -part of this can be saved for the others

00:11:15 [Wolftooth ] ((Thanks, Lirr, for jumping into an RP. Maybe this can make up for the character development session we missed last Sunday?))

00:11:36 [Verhowain ] Sure sounds good to me *smiles*

00:12:49 [Wolftooth ] ((Now for time and place ... hunting trip? Collecting firewood? Other ideas?))

00:13:06 [Razor ] The maze is not hard to get out of now..what with Wolfs ability to charge right through the hedges and Ver's skill at moving the vines asside. The others follow along happhazardly to what is definately a more appealing place. Located just off the path is a clearing used by those who camp periodicly on their travels. While Lin and Kaelie set up the formers tent, Edwin tries to wow them with stories of his exploits as Viv and Morgen settle down for a quiet conversation dealing with jjust how to get those they just encountered to assist them in their goals.

00:15:01 Razor alternately moves along beside Wolf or Owain, apparently she's forgiven Wolf for trying to cleave her open in his rush to slay the beast. She quarters the area then as though looking for something to snack on.

00:15:11 [Razor ] Ver / Wolf

00:17:36 Verhowain spends a bit of time checking out the clearing, while he can't track he can tell by plantlife what kind of animals are likely to frequent this place and if they'd pose a danger to the party or visa versa... he also catalogs and collects any useful medicinal herbs he comes across.

00:20:31 [Razor ] *There are several varities of flora and fawna around..some roots to be boiled in water to make a soothing tea for upset stomachs or the eating of bad food..others to be crushed into pastes for burns or blisters. Several low shrubs bear fruit of different varieties that mightadd a small variation in the diet of trail rations that most of the group travels with. There are clearly no larger preditors then what travels with them, at least not that came through recently. There are signs of rabbits and fowl, perhaps a small caravor in the shape of a weasel

00:20:41 Wolftooth is all too happy to show those hedges who's boss, his axe blades plenty to support his claims. Respect for nature aside ... when the plants fight against you, you've got to fight back somehow. During camp, Wolftooth is doing his usual loner thing, setting up his own tent in a far corner. Periodically he glances around the clearing watchfully, checking to see what the others are doing wordlessly. He rolls his eyes at Edwin's unstoppable mouth before watching Razor and Owain comb the area. Not a bad idea, really ... Wolftooth is getting kinda hungry himself.

00:23:17 Razor apparently smells or spots something to intrigue her appetitie, btu then Wolfs watched her munch down on orc's already. The custom saddle bags across her shouldres are shed with ease, the hilt of the sword that sticks out the side of one of the flaps makes the loudest noise as it hits thr ground with a thump, the sond of small metal items turning over is even fainter just before she slides into the thicket that acts as something of a shelter after an apparent meal.

00:23:28 [Razor ] -continue

00:25:06 Verhowain gathers the herbs and provides the fruits to the rest of the party, taking only enough to suffice and not divesting the entire crop. He slips into the underbrush and checks around there for anything unhealthy before going to check on Razor.

00:27:32 Wolftooth quickly notices that Razor has similar ideas of finding food. His eyes narrow thoughtfully, watching her slide out of her pack, hearing the clinks of metal and a glimpse of a short sword ... wait a minute! What's a hunting cat doing with a short sword? Wolftooth recoils from the thought, scratching at his head in confusion. Wolftooth gladly accepts a pair of fruits, chomping on them happily while he ponders the puzzle that is Razor.

00:28:44 [Razor ] Lin and Kaelie are greatful for the change in substance given to them by Owain, Viv as well though Morgen still is some what standoffish towards them. Edwin tries once more to engage either Wolf or Owain in on his exploits of greatness.

00:29:59 Razor 's heard for a little while moving through the brush..apparently she misses a time or two what ever she's after by the quick frantic movements of the bush at an apparent aborted pounce. Edwins casualness about tossing the seeds of the fruit from Owain doesnt help any either, likely scaring any ediable game further afield.

00:32:30 Verhowain cunningly distracts Edwin "Look! A Chandelier!" He points behind the boy and when he turns to look Owain makes for the tall brush and all but dives in. Or course he's alot more effectient then seeds and is quieter thanks to his druidic skills.

00:33:34 [Razor ] Edwin with his superior intelligence ...looks..much to the amusement of the others as he walks a few feet in that direction

00:36:53 Wolftooth grumbles at the over-talkative bard, doing his best to pretend that he doesn't notice Edwin and pretending to be busy preparing to camp. As he is rifling through the pockets of his pack, he notices his hunting bow leaning up against a log nearby. Inspiration strikes him, and he quickly snatches it and a full quiver from nearby. Drawing an arrow, he nocks it and pulls back slowly, noticing that his bowstring gives quite a bit easier than it used to ... Wolftooth turns to address Edwin briefly, the drawn arrow pointing at the bard almost coincidentally. "I'm going hunting. You stay. Your mouth would scare the game." Wolftooth waits to make certain his point has gotten across before letting the string go slack once more and heading off into the brush.

00:39:06 [Wolftooth whispers to Razor] ((Trav has returned from his absence. So he'll be joining us?))

00:40:11 [Razor ] Edwin turns his attention to Wolf at his words, giving him a very flamboyant bow..afterall, the man didn pull him out of the hedge when everyone else was seemingly content to let him just rot there for a while when the cat decided to take exception to his song. "Yes, yes. you go do that thing you do...Ladies...let me tell you about the time..." is the last words that Wolf hears from Edwin as he vanishes into the treeline beside the clearing.

00:41:10 [Razor whispers to Wolftooth] umm..dont know, told him we were doing an improv thingy for the interum..i can work with lei and mark later on in the week about what they talk about and forward the log to you for them..dont know which group trav wants to interact with first though..them or wolf. ver and razor..

00:42:08 Verhowain moves along through the underbrush probably cutting Wolf's path "He's annoying isnt' he?" he grmbles to the ranger.

00:42:18 [Wolftooth whispers to Verhowain] ((*busts up* Look, a chandelier?! Wow ...))

00:42:23 Razor 's a brief flash of blackness through the brush up a head of both men, they get more a glimpse of her retreating tail rather then her whole form as she pads lightly through the growth. There are several birds overhead though just one would barely be a meal for any of them.

00:42:58 [Verhowain whispers to Wolftooth] A very OLD cartoon referance *G*

00:46:45 Wolftooth shakes his head and grumbles at Owain in apparent agreement, sparing the keeper of nature a moment's glance before his eyes return to the path ahead, catching a sliver of sight of Razor's tail. Wolftooth had intended to hunt on his own, but after thinking about it he realizes that perhaps a fellow woodsman and hunting cat might be welcome on such a venture. "Razor!" Wolftooth's gruff voice calls into the wood ahead, trying to get her attention as he pursues after her.

00:47:53 Verhowain follows after Wolf and Razor, at a leisurely pace because he's not slowed down by the brush and briars... Anything to get away from the City folk for a while.

00:49:08 Razor 's suddenly no longer before them, but rather slips up from behind between them on silent feet..simply there between one moment and the next. She trots a head a few steps then, alowing them to keep her in sight as she follows an anchient game trail that weaves its way through new and odl tree's.

00:53:19 Wolftooth cups his hands to his mouth and calls again, "Razor!" Just as she stalks past them both. Wolftooth's pace slows down to watch her go ... first ahead of them and now coming from behind. Wolftooth groans and shakes his head, grimacing at the trouble she's causing his poor half-orcish mind. With little else to do, he pursues her. "Come. We shall hunt together."

00:54:11 Verhowain blinks relatively sure she couldn't have circled around that quickly. He ponders this as he continues along quietly, noting both trees and plantlife around him. Old game trails often means predators so he keeps an eye and an ear out for them but suspecting Razor or Wolf would spot em first.

00:58:01 Razor 's tail twitches as though silently mocking Wolfs confussion on her comings and goings. There are a few choice samples of plant life along the game trail as well as thick roots crossing over the path and vines that hang down seemingly harmless. There are some forest sounds, insects and small game alike but so far nothing substantial until they cross anther path that indicates a rather deceent sized meal, likely a deer has crossed. Razor pauses att he juncture before moving after its tracks. A few paces down something drops from over head to land on Wolfs shoulders..it moves too, instantly trying to wind itself around his neck with its thick body to squeeze. (think boa consstrictor)

01:00:31 Wolftooth lets out a sort of constricted wheeze, eyes bugging out as his hands come up to grab hold of where the snake is choking him and pull as hard as he can, hoping his bracers will lend him the strength he needs to break free.

01:01:31 Lex rolls his eyes at Ed and shuffles off to the Far side of the camp, dropping his backpack and other minor possessions. He unties what he has of the displacer hide from its resting place on his pack and sets about inspecting it somewhat but oddly enough not bothering to clean it much more then what he got done before they moved on. He glances around and props his spear up beside him and takes out his Dagger. Flicking at odd piece or so of flesh and dirt left on the skin. He shakes his head slightly.

01:01:37 [Razor ] *the snake comes unraveled, only its tail end starts to wind up around his arm from wrist to shoulder, apparently its not going to give up that easily

01:02:46 Verhowain looks up to make sure it's not a vine from a tangle tree or something before walking up to try to ease the snake from around Wolf's limbs "Now now no need to get worried, he's just hungry like us..." He tries to use his handling and animal empathy on the Boa to convince it to let go.

01:05:10 [Razor ] *Ver has an easier time then Wolf in his momentary panic,, but then nearly being strangled does that to a person. The snake comes untwined from around Wolfs arm, its tongue flicking out as though to taste the air until Owain decides to let it go on its way or Wolf decides it just might be good eating. Razor once more has vanished from sight, apparently still on the trail of what ever she scented.

01:08:04 Wolftooth roars in struggled protest, doing his best to hinder the snake's efforts as best he can and unwrap the snake from his arm at least in part ... more specifically trying to loosen a section of snake from the head and further below. But then the snake simply releases him entirely, causing Wolftooth to stumble back away from the creature in Owain's grasp defensively. Were the decision up to Wolf, that snake would certainly have found its way onto tonight's menu. But he knows better than to come between a druid and an animal in his protection. He waits to see what Owain will do, panting heavily for breath and rubbing at his neck.

01:08:48 Verhowain soothes the startled and angry snake for a while before setting it on the ground "Go on, slither away else you'll get et to ya brute.." He grins shooing the serpent into the underbrush away from the trail and the camp.

01:09:36 [Razor ] *The serpent slithers away with a soft rustling noise, its tail the last to vanish from sight.

01:10:25 [Razor ] -continue

01:11:20 Verhowain looks around to try to get a good idea which way Razor went, hoping to catch sight of her tail... He does look to Wolf "You alright? It was just startled by you is all."

01:11:51 Lex keeps a small eye on the camp ...and the people in it. Odd lot for him to be traveling with and all But so long as he'll have an ...escort to the nearby town; itll work for him. He sighs again as he glance over the skin. He stands it on one end in front of him and sets it in his lap. Spreading it out ever so slightly where theres enough room for ...things to fall between the rolls of the hide. He close his eyes for a second and opens them again. As he does anyone watching will notice they've taken on that odd green glow again. Like when they were fighting the beat in the first place. He traces out a symbol over his hand. It flashes that same green color ...Only ...more brightly. He does this a few more times over some of his clothes and such that he's wearing. He also draws the symbol on the skin his holding in a few different spots ...asif to make sure he's got the whole thing. ....though anyone taking any note of what he's doing would notice that outside of the runes flashing in the air. There seems to be no other effect.

01:15:29 Wolftooth takes in one final breath of comfort, now rubbing at his wrist where the snake had tightened around his arm. He watches the snake depart, looking to Owain in awe-filled gratitude. "Thanks," Wolf mutters in perhaps the softest tone that Owain's ever heard him use, conveying a genuine respect. Nothing more need be said between the pair, so far as Wolftooth is concerned. For now, there's a stray cat to be tracked after. Wolftooth looks to the trail ahead, crouching low and flicking at a leaf or two as his eyes reveal to him the story. "Our cat found something worth hunting. This way." Wolftooth swiftly rises, retrieving his bow and drawing an arrow as he swiftly follows the trail.

01:16:19 [Razor ] *Not to far a head of them a flash of darker color crosses the trail, followed by a disturbance in the brush that cuases more then one hidden brid to run for cover. With a burst of speeda sleek deer bursts into sight before them, headed not away but towards them as it runs from something it perceives as a larger threat to its well being.(Yes i want a roll for this wolf!*giggles* your being charged by a deer)

01:18:19 [Wolftooth ] ((OKay, gimme a sec ...))

01:19:38 Wolftooth drops down slightly, trying to make himself less aware of the spooked deer as he slowly draws his arrow back, taking careful aim ... he waits until the deer gets within thirty feet, if possible, before taking the shot.

01:20:15 Verhowain Follows after Wolf as quietly as he can, moving slowly as to not spook any game or spoil Razor's hunt. He adds in keeping an eye out Boas now. He side steps behind a tree at the sound of the deer. oh yes.

01:22:22 [Wolftooth ] ((Roll damage as well?))

01:23:31 [Razor ] *The arrows flight is true enough, embedding itself in the anaimals chest. It manages a few more forward strides before its forlegs buckle and it slides a few feet down the trail in Wolfs direction. A nice clean kill actually, the deer is a buck and not a doe. Only Razors momentum behind it is not as quickly ceased. Her hind legs dig into the ground to have her sliding and eding up coliding with the deers hind quarters to end up at a sitting stop and kicking up a goodly amount of dirt and leaves in the process. She snorts once, then promptly sneezes.

01:23:58 [Razor ] -naw..it was coming head on..just was a question of you breaking the bow or missing it or hitting it actually

01:24:55 Verhowain looks from around the tree and nods "Good shot." He comments as he has no intention of digging in on the meal. Nope...

01:25:02 [Wolftooth ] ((With a roll like that, plus Point Blank Shot, kinda hard to miss. ^_^ Neato!))

01:26:24 [Razor ] -ya could have broken the bow which the devious part of me was hoping for =P

01:28:03 [Verhowain ] ((Which was why I stated "I stepped behind a tree." Stating where you are when Fit hits the shan is important *G*))

01:28:42 Wolftooth watches the hunting cat skid to a sudden stop near the kill, slowly lowering the hunting bow that he is so proud of, having already given him a full belly on multiple previous occasions. As the cat sneezes, Wolftooth can't help but grin slightly and chuckle to himself. "You found a good one," Wolftooth tells the cat, stooping over the buck to carefully remove the arrow, checking of course to make certain that it's truly dead and not still suffering ... but it's a clean kill indeed, a fact that Wolftooth is grateful for.

01:28:53 [Wolftooth ] ((*laughs))

01:30:53 Razor gets back to all fours , her intent clear enough..ready to just tear into the deer right here and now. She's practically drooling in fact. She paws at the carcus once and then twice with a paw to see if its going to move which it doesnt, whats left of its life's blood spilling into the ground benath the neat hole produced by the removed arrow.

01:31:25 Verhowain looks around, hoping there isn't an angry buck out there that's gonna come and protect his doe... He's watching out for just that event.

01:31:27 [Wolftooth whispers to Lex] ((Dangit, if Wolftooth was still back at the camp, he'd be more than happy to clean that displacer beast's pelt for you. It's what he does for a living, after all.))

01:31:29 Lex takes a quick glance around the group. He has no take on their use of magic yet muchless how they feel about it. He shrugs. Might as well get it over with. He stands and still holding the hide spreads it out alittle more. Muttering something slightly under his breath. The glow having never left his eyes. ... A bright green flash seems to cover his body and the displacer skin. Almost like a shield matching his shape along with the skins. It disappears almost as fast as it manifested leaving ....something almost hanging in the air around Lex for a second. Though unless caught by anyone for that second. Its gone. Fallen to a pile on the ground, is every bit of dirt and otherwise unclean pieces of this and that; that was on his body. ...Though anyone watching the skin will see it got the same treatment. Old and dried flesh falling to the ground joining bits of extra skin, dried blood, and the odd piece of fur. Leaving only the slightly shiny and useable hide behind. ...and ofcourse a well cleansed Mage to go along with it.

01:32:20 [Wolftooth ] ((Ummm ... I thought this was the buck.))

01:32:43 [Razor ] -the deer is a buck Ver =P a nice 10 pointer

01:33:00 [Razor ] -Ver's having gender issues today Wolfie =P

01:33:18 [Lex whispers to Wolftooth] hehe, well, ...i have that covered or i would have asked, =P ....but if he was a tailor id let him cut it, something i Cant do, ;)

01:33:35 [Wolftooth ] ((10 points!! Hoody hoo!!))

01:34:41 Razor thinks if Lex fails as a mage he can always get a good paying job in a bath house or a butcher shop =P

01:35:38 Verhowain still keeps his eyes open for scavengers or larger predators that might have been drawn to the ruckus.

01:36:27 [Lex whispers to Wolftooth] ...interesting spell that "Hygiene" i thought it would just be a nice RP effect, (as all it does otherwise is give a +1 Save VS Disease for 24hrs) ...nice to see i can get a few other uses out of it, ^-^

01:36:40 Wolftooth is content to bring the animal back to the camp to properly dress, clean, and cook to share with the others ... but he can see the hungry look in Razor's eyes, so he tends to her first. His hunting knife is swiftly produced to carve a sizable hunk of flesh from the deer's flank, removing the skin and tossing the meat to Razor neatly, hoping it will be enough to sate her for now. After that, Wolftooth, gets his hands under the creature's belly and hoists it up onto his shoulders to take back to camp.

01:39:51 [Wolftooth whispers to Razor] ((*points to cyberkitty in Customs* Anybody we know? o.O))

01:40:52 Razor grreedily snatches the meat in flight, then nearly chokes on it as the bushes move with no warning besides low throated growls. She lets out a choking sound as two larger then normal wolves slam into her broadside, taking her down and right off the path in a tumble of fur. Neither Wolf or Ver fair much better, the hunger crazed animals having arrived in force, nearly a full dozen of them. One slams its weight into Ver as well as Wolfs stalked by the larger of them, the more dominiate of them snaping at the bloodly leg that hangs donw from one of Wolfs sides.

01:41:06 [Razor whispers to Wolftooth] dont think so

01:42:47 [Razor ] -Razors bit..Ver's clawed..Wofls bit and clawed, low..hip to ankle area..your choice..minor damange so far.

01:44:42 Verhowain all but yells out as he tries to swing his spiked cudgel "Back ye slavering curs!" He yells as he swings his beast-beater.

01:45:39 [Wolftooth ] ((*laughs muchly*))

01:46:19 [Razor ] -better then Edwin and his 'here i come to save the day!'

01:46:40 [Razor ] btw Wolfie..that one wolf is alot larger then it should be..alot larger..

01:46:45 Wolftooth hardly has time to react to the sudden assault of the wolf pack, letting the deer slide off his back as he recoils, teeth sinking into his thigh and claws raking over his calf. "Graahh!!" Wolftooth's angry eyes glare back the leader of the pack, staring him down as he takes a step or two back as he prepares to do something he's never done before but has seen his mother do on many occasions. A quick prayer in orcish is given, calling to the spirits of nature for aid, bidding the plants nearby to entwine all the nearby creatures and hold them fast.

01:47:28 Wolftooth has only seen one other wolf that looked this big before ... if you ask him how he got his necklace, he'll tell you all about it.

01:48:28 [Razor ] *EG* no one wants to ask me if there's a FULL MOON recently? ^.^

01:50:12 [Wolftooth ] ((What? Time for Wolftooth to perform his tribal lunar ceremony already? ~_0 Wow, you aren't wasting any time there, Raz ...))

01:50:39 [Razor ] *the vines swirl and move, Owain would likely be impressed if he was watching and not occupied himself with the one wolf and one of its pack mates trying to cut him off from the others, seperating them from each other. Angry sounds come from the foliage where Razor went tumbliing tail over nose..growls and hisses as well as barks

01:51:13 [Razor ] -i dont want you to realize just yet that your infected..gives me time to hve the little effects come out by degree's =P

01:52:14 [Wolftooth ] ((Well then quit talking about it, and I'll do my best to pretend I don't know! :-P Yeesh ...))

01:53:05 [Razor ] Two woves are caught qucily, starting to bite at the vines that trap them. the larger is faster, more powerful..its mouth driping saliva as well as Wolfs blood from its maw. Ver bashes one wolf, sending it careening down the trail and into the bush on the other side, temporary out of comission, but it leaves him open for an attack from the other. Two not occupied in the fry try to latch onto their downed meal and drag it off.

01:53:18 [Razor ] -i'm high..leave me alone!

01:54:12 [Razor ] -wolf attacks..muhaha...theres..umm..big dude first and two companions at Wolf...one wolf on Ver..two on razor..two trying to make off with the deer and two trapped..

01:55:08 [Razor ] Wolfs raked again, the jaws just missing snaping closed on his arm

01:56:04 [Razor ] one smaller wolf rakes Wolf as well, minor as the other is younger and over eager, trying to get in the same place for a bite

01:56:23 [Razor ] whats Ver's ac?

01:57:21 [Wolftooth ] ((Remember, some of these wolves are probably being held immobile by the plants?))

01:57:58 [Razor ] two are imobile intirely, your good but you aint that good =P

01:58:13 Lex sighs slightly, one of relief mostly as no one seemed to pay him much mind at all. ...Lousy Adventures. Probable out on some quest or somesuch. Not even interested in the Slightest at his ...odd casting style. He goes on muttering slightly and going on about his Magic. He grumbles as he rerolls the hide and glances about the camp. He shakes his head slightly looking the group over. as they seem to be a backwoods ....group. Much like he was at one point. ...Ahwell. Old times that. He starts to fold the displacer hide into a small enough piece where itll fit into the top of his backpack. Which he picks up and places it within once he's done fooling with it. Almost a tight fit But considering everything else he has in there. It fits well enough. He sits back down beside his spear again. Lacing and tieing up his backpack.

01:58:52 [Razor ] Ver's missed and two of the wolfs are starting to drag the deer out..Razors pissed

01:59:33 [Razor ] Wolf then Ver, do your injuries, dodges ect in posting please. roll before your attack

02:01:06 [Razor ] -note damage they do to you is minimal unless stated otherwise with a 19 0r 20 rom them.

02:01:59 Wolftooth is rather impressed himself. Apparently his mother's teachings weren't for naught after all ... In his distraction, however, he gets bitten and clawed again, teeth clamping about his arm briefly before he's able to wrench it free of the creature's grasp. Wolftooth does his best to make sure the plants don't catch after him as well, as such magics have a tendency to do. His bow, thankfully, is safely slung over his back once more. Wolftooth draws both his axes, snarling and choosing the largest wolf for himself. Stepping toe to toe with the oversized beast, Wolftooth looses his fury in a pair of powerful swipes. ((Power attack for 2))

02:03:26 [Wolftooth ] ((Ha! Bad dog!!))

02:04:19 [Razor ] The blows dont slow the larger one down as much as they should, though he fully incompasitates the one smaller wolf with an effective slice across its chest as it lunges for him, injuried it tries to retreat but is caught up in the swirling and twisting vines

02:05:23 Verhowain 's a wild eyed madman, dodging the wolves while cursing at them with the flair a sailor would admire... The minute he gets space he casts Entangle centered on the once again moving Deer.

02:06:21 [Razor ] The dead deer is caught, as well as the two that were trying to make off with it into the forest.

02:06:47 [Wolftooth ] ((Nice save, Owain! ^_^))

02:07:20 [Razor ] the one Ver injuired is caught amist them as well as it tries to go sailing over the others back at Ver.

02:08:39 [Razor ] big wolf, last little wolf on Wolf *snickers* two playing with razor..others are entangled.

02:09:23 [Razor ] -little wolf latches on to Wolf somewhere...painful

02:09:37 [Razor ] well he claws somewhere painful

02:10:02 [Razor ] just where did you leave that potion of healing Wolf?

02:10:38 [Wolftooth ] ((It's in my pack, in a side pocket ... back at camp.))

02:11:46 Razor comes tumbling back onto the trail in a tangle of fur with two other wolfs, one of them apparently attached to her throat as it claws at her body, the other giving chase across the game trail.

02:11:57 [Razor ] Owain, Wolf

02:14:53 Razor thinks thats like taking the prom queen out and leaving your condoms at home on the dresser there Wolf =P

02:15:15 Verhowain see's Razor in trouble and runs towards her, cutting through his own Entangle trusting to his druidic abilities to let him pass through.. If he can get close enough he'll touch Razor to begin casting Barkskin..

02:17:33 Wolftooth howls in agony, eyes crossing just slightly before he shakes his head clear of the pain as best he can to return the favor twofold, two powerful slashes out for canine blood.

02:17:44 [Razor ] -that doesnt make you imune to Wolfs little wild entangelment spell though Owain

02:18:38 [Wolftooth ] ((Power attack for two, same as before. And druids aren't hindered by plants and overgrowth of any sort, I'd assumed ... so wouldn't Owain be okay?))

02:19:34 [Lex ] ((( "However, thorns, briars, and overgrown areas that have been magically manipulated to impede motion still affect her.")))

02:21:29 [Wolftooth ] ((nat 20, nat 1 ... nat 20, nat 1 ... What's with this love hate relationship Wolfie has with his axes?!))

02:25:47 [Wolftooth ] ((*checks the UL* Man down! I mean ... woman down! No, wait ... cat down! But ... aww, hell with it.))

02:26:18 [Lex ] (((DM down mebey? =P)))

02:26:34 [Wolftooth ] ((Ring of Sustenance gets rid of all but 2 hours of sleep, Lex.))

02:27:26 [Verhowain ] So does this mean we win? *G*

02:28:14 [Razor ] hehe. last posts?

02:28:19 Lex grumbles you guys are prolly going to have him use his (last? or 2nd? O_o) 'Cleaning' spell to clean the wolf drool and dirt off your deer, ;)

02:28:25 [Wolftooth ] ((Not now, it doesn't ... but it'd better end swiftly! Wolftooth's already taken six hits!))

02:28:48 [Wolftooth ] (repost) Wolftooth howls in agony, eyes crossing just slightly before he shakes his head clear of the pain as best he can to return the favor twofold, two powerful slashes out for canine blood.

02:29:23 [Wolftooth ] ((Nah, leave it. Grit builds character. *big grin*))

02:29:58 [Razor ] what about Owain being imune to Wolfs entanglment spell thingy?

02:29:59 [Lex whispers to Wolftooth] See, i found out, that 'creating' stuff, is done in 8hrs a day, soooo, i go out with the 'group' work on magic items at night, and be fine by morning, ;)

02:30:46 [Lex ] 02:19:34 [Lex] ((( "However, thorns, briars, and overgrown areas that have been magically manipulated to impede motion still affect her.")))

02:30:54 [Verhowain ] It looks like I'll need to make a save from what Lex said.

02:30:55 [Wolftooth ] ((Never mind that, Raz. Druids aren't affected by 'normal' vegetable entanglements. These are magical.))

02:31:00 [Razor ] if wishes were horses...

02:31:39 [Razor ] Wolf attack rolls please?

02:31:45 [Wolftooth ] ((They probably did overlap, Owain. Entangle has a 40 foot radius.))

02:32:52 Lex works fasters on that Displacer cloak, ....boots of Haste, ring of Spell turning, .....Epic bracers of armor, ...all that, *hides the Verh the Pirate!* O_O

02:34:48 [Razor ] Owain never makes it, Wolfs own entanglement spell catching him as surely as it does the wolves..he's some what lucky though, they keep moving around instead of being still, the over laping of the spells having an unsettling effect, pulling Owain close to snaping jaws before pullign him away again. Wolf rams his axe home, though he doesnt kill the beast, he sends it fleaing from him with a howl of pain from what likely might be a mortal wound. Those that are able to get free follow him, leaving behind the 5 still caught in the vegitation and one of the two trying its damdest to maul Razor on the other side of the swirling growth.

02:34:52 [Wolftooth whispers to Lex] ((You still need a full 8 hours of uninterrupted rest to regain your daily spells, Lex. Unless runecasters work differently ...))

02:35:30 [Lex whispers to Wolftooth] uhh, ill ...have to look at that, im not all that 1004577600n it, O_O

02:38:06 Verhowain 's curses get more inventive, yes what do you expect from a boy raised in a port town... If he gets hands free he's casting create water and spraying the wolves with it "Bad Doggie!"

02:41:00 Wolftooth doesn't bother pursuing after the fleeing wolves, as there are others to protect at the moment. Looking around, he catches sight of the wolf trying to bite at Razor and rushes it, axes held high and screaming a war cry befitting the most fearsome orcish warrior. "GrrrrAAAHH!!" he shouts as he brings an axe down upon the wolf's entangled form.

02:41:55 [Lex whispers to Wolftooth] uhh, from what im reading, i need an hour to "ready my spell list" when i want to, but this can be down anytime, (works abitt differnt then the D&D system) but 8hrs to get my "spell slots" back, -_-

02:42:07 [Wolftooth ] ((Four points worth of power attack this time, but I get a +2 to my single attack since I'm charging.))

02:43:06 [Wolftooth ] ((That's a net -2 to attack, +4 to damage, and -2 to my AC until next round. ... if it's important, that is.))

02:43:06 [Lex whispers to Wolftooth] err down = done

02:44:16 [Wolftooth whispers to Lex] ((So in other words, yes. You do need the eight hours of rest to regain your spells. And the hour to ready your spells is just the same as a wizard can do, so that's no different either.))

02:45:56 [Razor ] *Even though Wolf gets a partical shower from Owain as he sways like a leaf in the wind he skillfully bashes the wolf attached to Razors throat, senind its broken body sailing into the growth to land with a thud and apparently not get back up again. (over kill..it had like 3 hp left =P) The only ones left bob and weave like Owain, hardly dmaaged at all. Razor lays on her side, breathing heavily.

02:47:21 [Lex whispers to Wolftooth] no, i dont HAVE to take that hour, unless i want to change my spells for the day, see i get "spells readied" and "Spell Slots" the Readied spells are whats in my head at all times, they dont change unless i want to change them out, the "slots" i can use for anyspell, like (i have 4 1st lvl spells readied, i can cast any combo of them, = to my remaining slots (at this lvl: 3)) but my slots return after a nights rest, no restudying needed,

02:47:23 [Wolftooth ] ((Are there any wolves left who are directly threatening anyone?))

02:48:41 [Razor ] nope. the last ones are entangled with Owain and the deer

02:48:53 [Wolftooth whispers to Lex] ((Ahhh, I get it. I was referring to the wizard's ability to leave certain of his spell slots 'unprepared' and empty, then be able to take time and prepare them as needed later on in the day. But that sounds a bit different.))

02:49:22 Verhowain 's trying to get out of this thing... "Blasted vines! Don't listen to a thing I've been saying..."

02:51:42 [Lex whispers to Wolftooth] ahh, i see, *nodnods* yeah, they havea Great magic system though, i love the thing, like i can cst my 2nd lvl spell, using a 1st lvl spot, but with a lesser effect, ...or i can use two spell slots to cast one spell and add like +1 to the DCs and such, ^-^

02:52:41 Wolftooth gives Razor a quick once over with his eyes, and decidedly doesn't like what he sees. Weary from his own wounds, his head drags about in search of the one best suited to healing, quickly spotting him amidst the tangle of creeping plants. He dashes through the plants, using his great strength and agility to manuever and tear through the entangling plants in order to reach Owain and cut him free with a careful swipe of his handaxe.

02:53:34 [Razor ] -you DO know you can end and entangel spell at will right?

02:54:11 [Wolftooth ] ((Yes I know. *ponders* How many dogs exactly are in this tangle at the moment?))

02:54:22 [Wolftooth ] ((I count 5 ...))

02:54:26 [Razor ] umm....5

02:55:22 [Wolftooth ] ((Yeah, that's five dogs too many to risk releasing any or all of them. Wolftooth's just gonna cut out Owain for now.))

02:56:02 [Razor ] *Wolfs better at the hacking and slahing though he's still bleeding from several of his wounds..those from the larger wolf nearly burn like fire in his body.

02:58:34 Verhowain , once he gets free gets up to firstly look Wolf (He's closer afterall) over. He pulls out bandages and begins wrapping up his worst wounds "Ye'll have to speak to Lady Lin for better then this.."

02:59:15 Wolftooth pushes Owain away roughly. "Heal Razor!" he tells him through gritted teeth. His face tenses suddenly at a surge of pain from his own wounds, hunching forward slightly, though shrugs it off as best he can.

03:00:00 Verhowain gets shoved doing his best to avoid falling back into the entangle, heads around it to get to Razor, checking her over carefully...

03:02:16 [Razor ] ./me 's breathing is heard in bubbles as Owain gets closer to her, her eyes partly glazed over..a gaping tear in the underside of her throat where each time she breathes in the air escapes through the opening. She makes a rather pathetic sound, her paws twitching on their own reflexively with small jerks as though she's trying to get to her feet. Its not the only wound she has either, more blod mats her sleek black coat and soaks into the ground beneath her.

03:03:34 [Razor ] the remaining wolves contiue to struggle to get free, the spell wont last for ever and is already starting to fade

03:03:53 Wolftooth pauses a moment to catch his breath and gather what remains of his endurance, until he can feel the vines threatening to wrap about his boots. He quickly pulls himself free and exits the great green mess as swiftly as he can, following after Owain to stand guard over him and the injured cat. While Owain does his thing, Wolfie swaps out his axes for his bow, pulling back another arrow and getting ready. Only then does he decide to release the plants from his bidding, allowing them to return to their normal state.

03:06:20 [Razor ] The wolves drop, one of them falling dead to the ground as the other four flee with their tails betwen their legs into the undergrowl amist howls that travel back towards them, some even reaching the camp site though faint by the time they reach there.

03:07:27 Verhowain fumbles around in his pockets, pulling out the healing elixir received from the Elder Druid and pours this down Razor's throat... "Yer Healing Draught, from the Elder Druid, Ye have it?"

03:07:37 [Wolftooth ] ((Question ... would you say an average hit from the wolves was around 4 damage?))

03:08:10 [Razor ] average yes..you got hit with i think 2 19s at one point..theyd do abit more

03:09:11 [Wolftooth ] ((So if my calculations are right, Wolfie's down to ... 1 hp. 0.0))

03:09:17 [Razor ] Owain nearly chokes her with it, a good portion of it dribbling out on the ground rather then down her throat..its not like forcefeeding a person the draunt after all.

03:10:00 Razor 's at 0 Wolf..she got hit with a couple good ones herself thank you very much..the man with the least AC comes thorugh practically unscathed!

03:11:32 Wolftooth 's leg has been torn to shreds, the cloth there stained with blood. The arm holding back the arrow is shaking unsteadily, and his teeth are chattering, feeling a certain chill overtake his body everywhere but where the large wolf's teeth had sunk into his flesh. As the wolves all scamber away, he allows the bowstring to fall slack ... and immediately sinks to his knees and falls over, catching himself with his hands to avoid falling to the ground completely. Gasping for breath on all fours, he replies to Owain, "In my pack. At camp."

03:11:37 Razor seems barely lucid after a few moments, but blood continues to seep from numerous gouges and bites but at least she's no longer gurgling her own blood.

03:12:45 Verhowain hefts Razor up, Yes he doesn't have great strength but he's in healing mode... "Can ye make it back to camp?" He takes a moment then nods "It be that way.."

03:13:01 [Wolftooth whispers to Razor] ((Wolfie's wounds: 4, 4, 4, 6, 6, 2. 26 damage against 27 hp. For not rolling dice in this encounter, you came awful close to killing two party members!))

03:13:33 [Razor whispers to Wolftooth] heheeee

03:14:34 Razor 's only about 120lbs, not that heavy at all. She can only utter a growl of protest as Owain heaves her up and across his shoulders

03:14:50 [Razor whispers to Wolftooth] i rolled a fumble for myself dear, least you didnt do that!

03:16:22 Wolftooth 's vision begins to grow fuzzy, and his hearing fades slightly, only half aware of what's going on with Owain and Razor behind him. Another surge of boiling heat rages up his leg, causing him to topple to his side and bring his hands to the twin bite wounds on his right thigh instinctively.

03:18:03 [Razor whispers to Wolftooth] an see with out the big wolf there for proof of lynconthrope..well they wont know to treat him for that =P sneaky huh?

03:19:08 [Verhowain ] "Ah bugger!" He sets Razor down and fishes around in his robe for that pouch the elf queen gave him... rummaging around in it he pulls out a furry ball and tosses it to the ground hoping its gonna be big enough of an animal to drag Wolf to the camp..

03:19:30 [Wolftooth whispers to Razor] ((I still think that's cool that we managed to hold off a pack of ten wolves, the leader of which was a werecritter! Yay for dual entangles. ^_^ But yes, this was probably the perfect way to do it. Didn't even see it coming.))

03:20:48 [Razor ] Owain gets...a little critter...might be wiser to leave them there and fetch Lin and what ever else he can get his druidiy hands on

03:21:39 [Wolftooth ] ((Oh ye of little faith ... give the stubborn half-orc half a chance, eh? ~_0))

03:23:00 [Razor ] -well then..

03:23:49 Verhowain orders his little critter to return to camp and fetch Lin. in the mean time, he pulled it out afterall.

03:24:38 [Razor ] 8 the ferret scurries off through the bush (and is promptly eaten =P j/k)

03:25:31 Wolftooth grunts lightly, then grits his teeth and grunts a bit more forcefully ... then with Owain's help manages to get back up to his feet with a snarl, feet stumbling slightly as he manages to get them back under his weight. After a moment, he seems to be okay, though he is heavily favoring his non-mangled leg. Another grateful glance is given to Owain, nodding appreciatively if weakly as he begins to stumble over to whatever remains of the deer. Mule-headed, ain't he?))

03:28:45 [Razor ] *The ferret scurries into camp...to bad none of them speak rodent aint it? Edwin oohs over the creature and tries to catch it. Its a little time before Lin and Kaelie realize that the others should have come back before now. They leave Edwin trying to catch the ferret, Lin grabing up Alfreds trailing reins to try and find her companions

03:30:08 [Razor ] Edwin actually thinks it'll make a nice fur muff for a lady ^.^

03:30:33 Wolftooth growls back in denial. "I'm fine! Get Razor back to camp." Wolftooth stoops over the deer, dropping forward to get his arms back underneath the buck and do his best to heft it back up over his shoulders, an act which seems to cause him great pain though he does it quite effortlessly. Such superhuman strength even when gravely wounded ... but then again, Wolftooth has been on death's door lots of times in his past, so what's one move visit?

03:31:28 Wolftooth also bellows very, very loudly from the pain as he lifts that deer. Surely the noise would be enough for the others to hear ...

03:31:40 Lex blinks at Lin and Kae leaving the camp. He shrugs slightly. Still drawning things in hte dirt with his Dagger,......

03:32:10 Verhowain heads towards Camp grumbling about meat eaters and stubborness... He begins to call out to the Camp hoping to get the healer's attention.

03:32:30 [Wolftooth whispers to Razor] ((Ye gads, Trav is such a powergamer! *shakes head*))

03:34:58 [Razor ] Lin and Kaelie find them with Wolfs bellow of pain. She leaves Alfrreds reins go to go and assist him, Kaelie going back instead with Owain. She picks up the cats bags, uncerimonously dumping it out to spill loose several small pouches which have a muffled sound of coin or gold in side them..a set of worn but serviceable clothes and finally the potion. The last she sanatchs up and gives to Ver. Lin meanwhile helps Wolf put the deer across the tempermental aftredsflanks, ordering him to stay as she turns to Wolf with an expression of great epathy on her face.

03:37:30 [Razor ] *Its easier to get the other potion down, Kaelie also sugests that he pour some on the wounds directly. A few times she looks towards th forest as she questions Owain about what went on there.

03:38:35 Wolftooth isn't about to argue about the great weight being taken from his shoulders, but once the buck has been lifted he just turns and starts heading back the way Linsida came towards camp, limping as he goes and blood still trailing down through the nasty slashes in his breeches.

03:38:40 Verhowain tries direct wound application "Wolf and Razor went hunting, I tagged along, Got a nice deer, a nice pack of wolves got us..." he's brief but accurate. *smiles*

03:40:08 [Razor ] Lin holds Wolf up before he gets too Far. "Let me see to your injuries first."If that fails she tries another tactic. "You'll leave a trail of blood for other preditors to follow us back.."

03:41:48 Razor lets out a meowling noise as he pours the potion on, the liquid foams but soon stops leaving un mared flesh and fur behind in its wake. She's definately tired though and like the others will need nurishment to regain her full strength. Kaelie looks at Ver's minor scratches and scrapes, offerin gto at least clean them up until lin returns with Wolf.

03:44:01 Verhowain grins at Kaelie "I be justmussed up a bit... Ye can clean up if ye like..." He brushes Razor's fur "There there it's okay...."

03:45:07 Wolftooth halts in his tracks, simply too worn down and battle weary to argue. He slowly turns back to face Linsida, standing on his good leg and looking down to the ground. Again he doesn't seem to enjoy the notion of Linsida's healing, something between passive defiance and awkwardness.

03:46:11 Verhowain thinks this has been a nice side adventure *Smiles* *makes plans to seek revenge on Lex involving a mason jar and a nest of fire ants *EG*

03:47:20 [Wolftooth ] ((Exactly, Lex. Where was the runecaster when we needed him most, huh?))

03:48:42 [Razor ] Lin approaches Wolf stodicly, a nearly wistful smile on her face as she comes up against him. Her one hand travels down his chest from his neck, as the other comes to rest on his thigh. She plceas light kisses on his jaw as her healing ability flows into him, feeling much warmer for a moment then the stinging pain from the bites of the larger wolf. though not conventanl..it does work, the steady trickle of blood from his wounds stoping as they close up, her breath warm and light on the flesh of his cheek as she nuzzles his skin as she more or less strokes his hard body.

03:50:34 Lex was Cleaning his soon-to-be Cloak, ...which is also going to Soon-to-be saving His Hide when he gets it finished, ;)

03:52:58 Wolftooth wants to fight against what he feels, grimacing at first until he feels the healing warmth spread through him. A low rumble emanates from the base of his throat as vigor returns to him, leaning into Linsida's kisses and caresses. Then, just as it's all over, his hands reach out quickly to snatch Linsida's hands and pull her back against him somewhat roughly, a hungry look in his eyes ... but no sooner does he do this than realization takes hold, eyes widening as he releases the healer and back away, seemingly horrified and attempting to hide his head in shame.

03:54:52 [Razor ] Lin 'finishes' with Wolf, his reaction to what she does is somewhat starling and for a moment something close to fear shows in her face. She merely inclines her head to him as he backs away, releasing her before taking up Alfreds reins to lead him and his bruden back to camp, letting Wolf deal with his bodys reactions to what happened in his own way..some peopel just dont react well, male or female to her unique brand of healing.

03:56:02 [Razor ] -save Wolf hun..also give Owain his spell thingy that he's going to need that i asked you to revamp from a 7th lvl to a 4th lvl spell please? i gotta go crash out now,,, am seeing things all blurry o.O

03:57:15 [Wolftooth ] ((Will do, Razor. And yes, Owain, I have a spell for you. *waves goodnight*))

03:57:39 [Verhowain ] To give me spell! *G*

03:57:53 [Razor ] *giggles* gives new meaning to the term 'raging hard on' =P

03:58:58 Razor might just play Lin herself *EG* then your all in for it! muhahahhaaaa...night night guys, thanks for taking my mind off hurting till my meds came!

03:59:07 Wolftooth just thinks about a certain Star Trek episode he saw once. "You know, in Klingon tradition, a broken clavicle on the night after the wedding is a sign of a good marriage." ^_^

03:59:32 [Wolftooth ] "Thanks for taking my own mind off of stuff as well."

03:59:57 [Razor ] *giggles* i'm going now..gonna have weird dreams now thats for certain o.O

04:00:02 [Verhowain ] Np Raz I hope they help and you can get some rest.

04:00:30 [Razor whispers to Wolftooth] glad you feel better too hun, srry forgot to ask what was bothering you..if you want email me about it to home and i'll write you back *huggles* again thanks..

04:01:06 [Verhowain ] COurse it was Edwin that was playing 'Chase the Ferret' *G*

04:01:26 [Wolftooth whispers to Razor] ((Nothing major, really. See you around.))

04:01:39 [Razor ] Course now i'm thinking about Edwin humping the ferret! damn you! night night

04:02:10 [Verhowain ] *EG* Oh yes I can inflict horrors on the mind...

04:02:18 [Verhowain ] G'night *smiles*

04:02:25 [Razor whispers to Wolftooth] saturday, definatly, short game..only about 2 hours if you can make it..bye

04:03:02 [Wolftooth whispers to Verhowain] Okay, Owain ... there's a certain spell I remembered in my conversation with Lorr earlier. It's called Countermoon, and can be found in Masters of the Wild, or The Complete Divine. Have access to either?

04:03:43 [Verhowain whispers to Wolftooth] Yup Masters of the Wild.

04:04:42 [Wolftooth whispers to Verhowain] ((*nods* Kay. Lorr was thinking of cooking up a lesser, 2nd level version of the spell that Owain could cast ... possibly with a shorter duration to make up for it. Even third level wouldn't be too bad, as you'd get it next level.))

04:04:42 [Wolftooth whispers to Verhowain] ((*nods* Kay. Lorr was thinking of cooking up a lesser, 2nd level version of the spell that Owain could cast ... possibly with a shorter duration to make up for it. Even third level wouldn't be too bad, as you'd get it next level.))
