IC (‘My thoughts . . .’; “My words . . .”; My actions . . .)

Iolanthe ‘Eep!’s only slightly as the dire wolf comes into view with her darkvision. Swiftly, she sings to Rodrick, inspiring him with her poem.

In icy caves where shadows fiercely creep,
A daunting wolf, with eyes that pierce the night,
Its howls reverberate, disturbing sleep,
And fills the hearts of mortals with great fright.

But fear not, dear companion, have no dread,
For though the wolf may try to make you quail,
With loyal friends, your fears will swiftly shed,
Their presence strong, like armor, they prevail.

They stand beside you, steadfast and sincere,
Their love a shield against the darkest foe,
Their laughter, like a light, dispels all fear,
With them, the icy cave is warm and aglow.

So, let the wolf’s fierce presence not dismay,
For friends are here, and fear shall fade away.

She then closes in on the fearsome beast with her rapier!

(OOC)

Movement: up to 30 ft. to stand next to the direwolf

Action: attack the direwolf with her rapier (17 to hit; 8 piercing damage if successful)

You attack the dire wolf with all you have. Most of you hit it to great accumulated effect. The creature, alone as confirmed by Jinabi, is well bloodied and slowing down. It still manages a viscous bite to Jinabi.

Notes

Nymestra - dragonborn inkeeper at the Wet Trout

Scython - tiefling leader of bandits in

In Bremen, fishers are being terrorized by a monster that lives in Maer Dualdon. Strange that none of the other towns on that lake have been harangued by the monster. Also great irony the monsters bringing in the fishermen!

In Good Mead, the town speaker was recently killed by a nine-foot-tall giant. Rumor has it the giant stole a shipment of honey mead, without which a handful of taverns in Ten-Towns might go dry! Might even need to change the name of the town, to my way of thinking.

In Targos, a band of adventurers is planning an expedition up the side of Kelvin’s Cairn, hoping to find Oyaminartok, a goliath lycanthrope who can transform into a polar bear. If you hurry, you might be able to join the expedition! Might be a bit of a bear, though.

IC (‘My thoughts . . .’; “My words . . .”; My actions . . .)

Seeing her friend go down so violently was horrifying, but Iolanthe steeled herself and reacted swiftly.

Unslinging her guitar, she began to play, weaving into her words and melody the magic of healing, followed by the magic of illusion.

Her music taps into the Weave and heals Jinabi’s wounds—just a little bit—and then creates the image of a massive boulder where none stood. If nothing else, it would confuse the wolf, and it would have to take its action to make an intelligence (Investigation) check to see through it after interacting with the “stone”. At the very least, Jinabi is now effectively invisible to the wolf and the wolf would need to take an action to make a perception check to sniff out the prone gnome.

When Jinabi opens his eyes, he will find himself “inside” a rock. He’ll have to move out of it to see again, although he’s interacting with it by default, so if he wanted, he could waste an action to do a DC 13 Intelligence (Investigation) check for it. That said, he’s got at least a round of relative safety, hidden in an illusory boulder.

The boulder surrounding him is intended to look natural, but roughly occupies a five-foot cube.

Movement: —

Action: cast the minor illusionMinor Illusion
Illusion cantrip

Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 30 feet
Components: S, M (a bit of fleece)
Duration: 1 minute

   You create a sound or an image of an object within range that lasts for the duration. The illusion also ends if you dismiss it as an action or cast this spell again.

   If you create a sound, its volume can range from a whisper to a scream. It can be your voice, someone else’s voice, a lion’s roar, a beating of drums, or any other sound you choose. The sound continues unabated throughout the duration, or you can make discrete sounds at different times before the spell ends.

   If you create an image of an object—such as a chair, muddy footprints, or a small chest—it must be no larger than a 5-foot cube. The image can’t create sound, light, smell, or any other sensory effect. Physical interaction with the image reveals it to be an illusion, because things can pass through it.

   If a creature uses its action to examine the sound or image, the creature can determine that it is an illusion with a successful Intelligence (Investigation) check against your spell save DC. If a creature discerns the illusion for what it is, the illusion becomes faint to the creature.

I told them so!!! I TOLD THEM SO! I said it and it was said to them and I was the one who said the words! Wyrd was stuck in her own thoughts and is totally frozen in fear and more fear... with a little more terror sprinkled in.

When she saw their ally fall, to so so many teeth, she whimpered and held her book in front of her face as she collapsed to her knees. "Ohnoohnoohnoohnoohnoohnonononononononono! NO!" She held up a hand and cast a firebolt at the wolf.

Tulik smiles and will try to pelt the wolf using his skinning knife and cooking tools, to harvest the meat and the skins.

Jinabi

Jinabi blinks while prone on his back, not sure what just happened.

He remembers being gnawed to death, and then suddenly feeling a little lighter.

Finding himself in a rock was a new experience though.

'Hello?' was the best he can croak from his dried throat when he no longer hear the growls of wolves.

“Well, at the very least,” Iolanthe replies, “That’s one less giant wolf killing fishermen and any other residents of Ten Towns. I have a feeling that we’ll be clearing out the other three tunnels of similar or worse. Jinabi, did you want to rest and recuperate before we try the other caves? This looks like as good a place to do it as any.”

Speaking of the gnome, her boulder illusion, which only lasts a minute, pops out of existence, revealing a still-very-injured—if-at-least-not-bleeding-out Jinabi.
