Ryfte Posted July 19, 2023 Clone Share Posted July 19, 2023 (edited) DESCRIPTION Elia is a small kobold, well, a dragon really, barely over 2' tall with a tail that is actually a bit longer than she is tall. Her scales are purple, violet, and pink shades, quite vibrant, and her eyes are a luminous aqua blue-green (heavy on the blue). Her fins are more flexible than that of standard kobolds with stronger, more controlled support spines that allow her to flex and relax them, giving her much better control maneuvering in water than her land-bound brethren. Her "leather" armor, a bluish-gray toned material is rough to the touch, covered in small cartilage ridges from the sea eel its crafted from.| SHEETElia Argus Female, Neutral Good, Dragonwrought Water Kobold, Warlock 1 AC/TAC/FFAC: 19/15/15 | HP: 6/6 | S/D/C/I/W/C: -2/+4/+0/+1/+0/+3 | F/R/W: +0/+4/+2 | Move: 30', Swim 30', Climb 20' Darkvision 60'; DR 2 / Cold Iron; Eldritch Blast, 60' RTA +4, 1d6 (20/x2) Elia moved along with the others but from above. The little kobold kept pace with them but along the ceiling and to the right side of the wall. The idea that there could always be more traps made her uneasy and she kept sweeping her hand along the side, towards the center of the ceiling, and ahead as she moved, concerned that there could easily be some deadfall rigged above her companions. When they reached the concealed doorway she paused with everyone else. "If dust were gold we'd be extremely wealthy by now..." She chuckled at the own humor as she drew in the dust along the wall above the concealed doorway. Knowing that it was unlikely she would find the switch she hesitated but being part of the group she felt at least trying was better than nothing. Thus she started looking with the others, around the top and upper corners of where the doorway ought to be.

Chaz Hoosier Posted July 21, 2023 Clone Share Posted July 21, 2023 (edited) Robin Kirkko Robin fidgets a bit as the slow, methodical pace of the crew. He suddenly glances around as if he's heard something. He lifts the torch high, squinting down the corridor. "Did you hear that...that...well I swear I heard something. And I am sure we haven't been down here long enough for me to be imagining things!" He strains to hear, not even sure where the sound came from, though he soon loses interest and shrugs. Description Robin is a straw haired tomcat. He is tall, strapping, and handsome, with blonde hair carefully tousled for a rakish look, blue eyes, and a strong jaw. He always dresses in clothes that show off his physique. He is, as one would expect of a cleric of Sune, incredibly vain and considers his hair his best feature. His focus on superficial matters might give the impression that he isn't all that bright. One the other hand, be sincerely sees the beauty in other people--whether outer beauty or inner beauty.

Ruess Posted July 22, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted July 22, 2023 The Lights In The Dark Chira does not find it with her check. That makes for three attempts at locating the secret, and nothing to show for it. Someone else might take this as a sign that your effort is wasted, and that you should proceed onwards. Kaldakaczil the dragon clearly disagrees with such silly notions like giving up. Instead of letting the matter go, the golden dragon tries - and tries - and tries... Doallyn finds a spot on the opposite side of the corridor where he can comfortably lean against a stone wall. The rest of you take a breather while your companion works.

bloodsprite Posted August 1, 2023 Clone Share Posted August 1, 2023 (edited) Saai Vees is a Drow cleric with a chaotic good alignment, devoted to worshiping Eilistraee, the goddess of song, beauty, and moonlight among the Drow pantheon. She stands in a dimly lit stone room, her lavender eyes glimmering with nervous anticipation and determination. Her obsidian skin blends seamlessly with the shadows, and her long, snowy-white hair cascades down her back, adorned with small moon-shaped hairpins. In her hands, Saai Vees wields a formidable Bastard Sword, a weapon she wields not just for combat but also as a representation of her dual nature: strength and grace. The hilt is wrapped in soft leather, providing a comfortable grip, and the blade gleams with a silvery light that resonates with her goddess's influence. As she waits for the door to open, Saai Vees sways on her toes with an elegance reminiscent of a dancer. Her movements are fluid and seemingly effortless, as if she is ready to spring into action and embrace the moment's beauty. This graceful swaying reflects her devotion to Eilistraee, the goddess of dance. It serves to center herself and find inner peace amid the situation's tension. Behind the façade of her dance-like movements, Saai Vees's heart races with uncertainty. She's unsure of what lies beyond the door but trusts Eilistraee's guidance to steer her toward the right path. The echoes of voices from the other side trickle through the door, adding to the suspense. Despite her nerves, Saai Vees maintains her resolve, drawing strength from her faith and the knowledge that she serves a purpose greater than herself. Her heart yearns for a world where her Drow kin can break free from the clutches of darkness and embrace the moon's light. Saai Vees embodies the chaotic nature of change and revolution, seeking to bring about a better future through her actions. She strives to be a beacon of hope and understanding, even in the darkest places, ready to challenge the oppressive ways of the Drow society and guide them toward Eilistraee's teachings of harmony and compassion. As the door inches open, Saai Vees readies her Bastard Sword, her eyes glinting with determination and a gentle smile on her lips. Whatever lies beyond, she knows that her purpose is to stand as a defender of justice and a catalyst for change, always guided by Eilistraee's light and the beauty of her dance.

Ruess Posted August 1, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted August 1, 2023 (edited) The Knives Are Drawn Kaldakaczil reaches a clawed limb. It takes all of a single twist of what looks to your eyes like a perfectly mundane spot of rocks with a bit of moss on it. There is a small clack- and an entire section of the wall slides open, revealing a formation of small humanoids possessed of flat faces featuring substantial but flat noses, wide mouths whence fangs peek out, and small, beady eyes. They number eight in total, and each is geared for battle since they are both armored and wielding weapons. Those in the front have morningstars and shields while those behind them have stacks of javelins in their arms. Behind the first bunch, you can clearly see the boss of this bunch: it wears a metal armor that is far higher in quality compareed to the humble leather armors of the others, and in its hands you see a large longsword. You can hear it barking orders the very moment your groups come face to face. The troopers raise their weapons and unleash a battle cry! Combat begins! Roll initiative!

bloodsprite Posted August 4, 2023 Clone Share Posted August 4, 2023 As the door swings open, Saai Vees is greeted with an unexpected sight. Standing before her are eight small humanoids, unlike any she has encountered. Their flat faces bear substantial but flat noses, wide mouths revealing fangs that peek out, and small, beady eyes that seem to dart around the room with curiosity and a hint of mischief. For a moment, Saai Vees is taken aback by their appearance, so different from anything she's encountered in her travels. Despite their seemingly menacing features, there's an undeniable charm to these creatures that catches her off guard. As she observes them, she can't help but find them "ugly cute." Their peculiar looks elicit a mix of emotions within her, and she feels a sense of compassion and empathy welling up. She looks into their beady eyes, trying to discern any intentions or emotions that might reveal their true nature despite their menacing appearance. At that moment, Saai Vees holds her blade and takes a more cautious and diplomatic approach. She moves up to the door and has the edge ready, waiting for the cute little beasties to approach, indicating with her blade that they will get hurt if they move aggressively. Preparing to defend if her area is threatened and to attack those in range.
