(10) Selini: yah... I can prolly be here about an hour and half to two...
(2) Dragonpearl: alright
(10) Selini: ((Ooh! I have a miniture too... wanna see it?))
(2) Dragonpearl: After a very long two weeks of travel, the group finally finds their desination.
(8) Uester: ((DP said she's not going to use the maps))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((not gonna do the map thing, just gonna use them for visual aids. too much of a pain))
(10) Selini: (... oh... I worked really hard on it too! ;p)
(2) Dragonpearl: Over the next dune, you can see a one storey building surrounded by sand and a few palm trees.
(2) Dragonpearl: ((keep it, I may change my mind over time))
** (6) Lin Chien looks on at the building in abject curiosity **
(8) Uester: ((I suspect these temple builders had the same problems with design as me))
(2) Dragonpearl: K1: A broken lime-cement basin, 100 feet in diameter, with no apparant openings in the bottom lies before you. The dried basin empties into a deep channel that cuts a path into the desert ground to the south.
(2) Dragonpearl: K2: The temple's stone walls are worn by time, yet are still quite solid and sturdy. There are no windows in the temple walls and only one entrance, behind a platform, shaded by pillars. A staircase leads up to the platform. The temple's roof is capped by one large and two small domes. On either side of the doorway stands two clay statues. Both are holding what appears to be gold scimitars and they are carved to look like Mulhorandi soldiers, tho the style of dress is an ancient one.
** (10) Selini pants a bit and holds her side, looking around and wiping a load of sweat off her forehead, "Why are desers always so ungodly hot?" **
(6) Lin Chien: "This building is mighty temple of death god? Lin Chien is.... how you say it... underwhelmed."
(2) Dragonpearl: ((oh yeah, no init tool either. anothe rpain in the fanny))
(10) Selini: ((lol))
(10) Selini: "Who would you say is the agent of death mister funny man?"
** (7) Gwalchmai looks the building over wondering where they kept the money **
** (10) Selini looks at Lin Chien questioningly **
(10) Selini: ((Well, if any of ya'll care, the piccie is at http://fliiria.tripod.com/Selini.jpg))
(6) Lin Chien: "Agent of death?"
(8) Uester: "Before anyone gets any ideas," Uester says. "Lets just leave the big gold swords where they are."
** (6) Lin Chien cocks his head to one side inquiringly **
(2) Dragonpearl: ((ROTFLMAO))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((nice Myst))
(10) Selini: "Yeah... I always think of the agent of death as the assassin... and they are pretty unimposing too, until your dead
(10) Selini: (... you laughing at my masterpiece? ;p)
(2) Dragonpearl: ((no, laughing at Uesters comment))
(7) Gwalchmai: "Well the statues are obviously a trap. Try and take the sword, and i bet they come to life"
(8) Uester: "Big gold swords, especially when held by big stone statues, are always a great big trap."
** (6) Lin Chien looks hurt. "Lin Chien would not dream of such a thing, oh no!" **
** (10) Selini glances to Uester "Gold swords? why in the world would I want something like that? They're probably all heavy anyway and everyone knows gold to be one of the worst minerals to use in any alloy if going for sturdyness..." **
(6) Lin Chien: "Oh yes, there are plenty of stories about unimposing people, no? And most of them true."
(2) Dragonpearl: The statues look aolt like the ones that were found in that chinese tomb in our world a while ago
(8) Uester: ((teracotta warriors?))
** (10) Selini shakes her head "Not you stupid! The temple! The temple isn't SUPPOSED to be imposing or overwhelming, death doesn't scare you, it kills you..." **
(2) Dragonpearl: ((yup))
(7) Gwalchmai: "Death scares me" says Gwal wondering what Selini is talking about
(2) Dragonpearl: ((cept egyptian looking))
(8) Uester: ((got it))
(6) Lin Chien: ((Selini, I was referring to Uester's comment))
** (10) Selini shakes her head and rubs her forehead "Nevermind... read Geraboli on the afterlife sometime... enlightening..." **
(6) Lin Chien: ((Never mind, I'm lagged to hell, lol))
(10) Selini: (oh...)
** (8) Uester surveys the temple. "It seems impressive to me." Lightfoot pads impatiently at the sand. "Shall we go a little closer?" **
** (6) Lin Chien scratches his head, shrugs, and canters his pony closer **
** (10) Selini walks over and looks at the statues, standing on her tippy-toes to regard them **
(10) Selini: (Selini just did get closer ;p)
(10) Selini: (I swear, you need this girl on a leash ;p)
(2) Dragonpearl: Selini climbs the stairs and approaches the statues. both begin to move and attack

** (7) Gwalchmai runs away from statues **
** (6) Lin Chien shakes his head and pulls forth a trio of daggers again, privately wondering if any of these creatures can even be hurt by his puny weapons **
(2) Dragonpearl: Both Guardians are going after Selini since she was the only one on near them.
(2) Dragonpearl: Selini....
** (10) Selini rushes quickly back to the group, cupping her hands over her neck protectively even while calling the words of a spell to mind, turning once she reaches the group and pointing at the nearest statue and unleashing a pair of magical darts that encircle the closer of the two guardians, wizzing about its head before darting in and striking either ear [2d4+2] -> [3,1,2] = (6) **
(2) Dragonpearl: (1d2)
(2) Dragonpearl: [1d2] -> [2] = (2)
(2) Dragonpearl: The guardians try to foloow but they stop as they reash the steps, not setting a foot on them
(2) Dragonpearl: Lin....
** (10) Selini blinks as the guardians fail to pursue her "... I was safe? I just wasted my spell!" **
** (6) Lin Chien lets fly instinctively, a wall of flying blades interposing itself between Selini and her nearest pursuer **
(6) Lin Chien: Daggers at foe #1
(6) Lin Chien: Att:[15-1d20] -> [15,-12] = (3) Dam:[1d4+3] -> [1,3] = (4)

(6) Lin Chien: Att:[15-1d20] -> [15,-18] = (-3) Dam:[1d4+3] -> [3,3] = (6)
(2) Dragonpearl: Two of Lin's daggers hit, they embed themselves in the statue but it is still moving, trying to get at the group but not setting foot ont he stps.
(2) Dragonpearl: The guardians can do nothing....Uester
(6) Lin Chien: ((Gee, I almost feel bad))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((ewww! mint gum and yogurt. bah!))
** (8) Uester halts in his charge to battle and looks on, well out of reach of them. "Fascinating", he says, taking no action. **
(2) Dragonpearl: initiative
(10) Selini: Init: [1d10+1] -> [9,1] = (10)

(2) Dragonpearl: ((she hit 2))
** (7) Gwalchmai standing at a safe distance draws his bow and fires at the guardian Lin hit [17-1d20] -> [17,-5] = (12) **
(7) Gwalchmai: [17-1d20] -> [17,-7] = (10)
(2) Dragonpearl: The guardians seem to be screaming silent screams of rage at their impotenet efforts
(2) Dragonpearl: Both shots miss
(2) Dragonpearl: Selini
** (10) Selini steps forward a couple of steps, looking at the statues and laughing slightly, sticking her tongue out and rasberrying them as they push themselves at the invisible barrier, "Whoever built these things did a pretty craptacular job... Hey! Statues! Calm down! Can't we talk about this?" **
(8) Uester: ((You know that's rather distressing. Should we really be killing them?))
(10) Selini: (no action ;p)
(2) Dragonpearl: ((how close are you Selini?)
(2) Dragonpearl: ((how else are you gonna get in the temple?))
** (6) Lin Chien gets off his horse and wanders over to the side, flanking the guardians as he raises his repeating crossbow confidently with a professional air, letting loose two bolts in rapid succession ((+2 to hit if from behind)) **
(10) Selini: (behind the others! I'm a coward...)
(2) Dragonpearl: ((good.))
(2) Dragonpearl: One of te guardians rotates to track Lin

(8) Uester: ((I a priest of war who doesn't like to kill stuff. Oh deary me))
(10) Selini: "Hey... can we just walk around the temple and go in the back?"
(2) Dragonpearl: One bolt hts the statues tracking Lin and embeds itself as well.
(2) Dragonpearl: It is still moving.
(2) Dragonpearl: Uester
** (8) Uester , having had enough of this, goes for the back of the one that turned to face Lin. **

(8) Uester: ((In that case, Uester does nothing))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((where the K2 is on the map is where they are standing))
(6) Lin Chien: ((Oh, are they L or M size?))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((M))
(8) Uester: ((Sorry, didn't see the map))
(8) Uester: ((I'm doing nothing))

(2) Dragonpearl: Okay guys, so now what? You ahve two statues who cant approach, Lin is short three daggers and two bolts. Gwal is short two arrows
(8) Uester: "I say we rush them and push them off the balcony"
(8) Uester: "They're bound to break"
(10) Selini: "You think we can? They look really really heavy..."
(7) Gwalchmai: "How do the priests of death get in, with these two about?"
(6) Lin Chien: Init [1d10+6-2] -> [6,6,-2] = (10)

(2) Dragonpearl: [1d100] -> [18] = (18)
(2) Dragonpearl: On the Fumble, the string on the crossbow snaps due to lack of any realy use over time
(2) Dragonpearl: Lin is barely able to drop the thing before the string lashes past his nose.
** (6) Lin Chien sighs. "Lin Chien pays the price for failing to treat his own equipment with the respect it deserves..." **
(2) Dragonpearl: ((nothing like Rammstein during a combat))
** (6) Lin Chien checks to make sure his mustache is still intact **
(2) Dragonpearl: Uester.
(2) Dragonpearl: ((ya got skipped))
** (8) Uester hurls himself at the nearest guardian, using his body shield to try and drive the guardian over the blacony. **

(2) Dragonpearl: [1d2] -> [2] = (2)

(2) Dragonpearl: Another thud is heard as it hits the sand in the center of the curved steps.
(2) Dragonpearl: ((two squares south of the k2))
(2) Dragonpearl: It slowly begins to stand....
(2) Dragonpearl: Selini
(8) Uester: ((Buggeration!))
** (10) Selini lowers her head and begins waving her hands about, gesturing before her and you notice the immediate area about her begins to grow increasingly dark, a slight glowing spot forming before her. Eventually, you can make out the glow to be that of what appears to be a disembodied hand, then she yells "STAND ASIDE!" as the the floating hand lunches forward, closing on the guardians and, as it can't attack this turn, moves to protect Uester who was foolish enough to close when she told him she could handle it... **
(10) Selini: (maybe they'll think me a priest of death? ;p)
(2) Dragonpearl: ((okay, what are you doing wiht the hand?))
(17) Lin Chien (enter)
(6) Lin Chien (exit)
(17) Lin Chien: ((OK, what happened?))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((selini cast spectral hand and uester knocked one off the balcony to the spot two sqares south of the K2))
(10) Selini: (well... I cast it this turn, I can't do anything with it yet can I? If so I'm going to grab the head of a statue and shove, knowing that it will be off balance being forced from that height)
(2) Dragonpearl: ((you can do that.))
(8) Uester: ((Did I actually do any damage?))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((yeah.))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((7 total))
(10) Selini: (then I do! the hand is just supposed to be of my life force, but other than a +2 to damage, it doesn't say how strong it is...)
(17) Lin Chien: ((Which one is dead/))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((then it is as strong as you are. You can keep the thing off balance and from attacking tho))
(8) Uester: ((Neither))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((none are dead))
(10) Selini: (neither)
(10) Selini: (I can't try and push it off? ;p)
(2) Dragonpearl: ((sure you can. roll str))
(10) Selini: (actually, I have the hand fly into the temple for this turn, to see if they pursue it)
(10) Selini: (sorry... I change my mind alot :( )
(2) Dragonpearl: (you do and they dont follow... new initiative))
(17) Lin Chien: ((Do I get a turn?))

(2) Dragonpearl: Go Lin...
(10) Selini: (GRR 11!)
** (17) Lin Chien shakes his head ruefully and produces two more daggers, one in each hand. Opting not to risk having any more embedding in their stony bodies by throwing, he darts close to #1 and executes a quick double slash **
(17) Lin Chien: Daggers at foe #
(17) Lin Chien: Att:[17-1d20] -> [17,-11] = (6) Dam:[1d4+3] -> [4,3] = (7)

(2) Dragonpearl: (okay. you hit it once and it swings back at you)

(2) Dragonpearl: The Guardian Lin swung at is able to clock him a good one before Lin gets out of range again. ((7 damage))
(2) Dragonpearl: Selini
** (17) Lin Chien shakes his head vigorously till the stars in his vision clear, and he approaches with more caution **
(2) Dragonpearl: Selini, you are up
** (10) Selini 's floating hand spins, doing a reverse spin to build power, and rushes forward, palm open to strike the back of the creature's head to send it spinning off balance **
(2) Dragonpearl: Roll to hit.

(10) Selini: [19-(1d20+2)] -> [19,-14,-2] = (3)

(2) Dragonpearl: Almost as if, once it is past the barrier it is free to move.
(2) Dragonpearl: ((go Gwal))
** (7) Gwalchmai runs up the steps towards the platform and points his ring at guardian 2 and attempts to fling him into the basin(k1) **

(2) Dragonpearl: [1d100] -> [32] = (32)

(2) Dragonpearl: ((sorry, got lost in the rolls))
(2) Dragonpearl: Lin and Gwal
** (17) Lin Chien nods in acknowledgement to Uester as he feels the bruise left by the last statue clearing up, and he leaps down the stairs as fast as he can, leaping for the back of the one approaching Selini as soon as he comes within range, his sharp points of his daggers leading the way **
** (7) Gwalchmai points his ring again, this time at guardian 1 and pushes him towards the basin **
(2) Dragonpearl: Lin roll

(2) Dragonpearl: The off hand dagger flies out of his hand as he swings it.
(17) Lin Chien: ((I wasn;t sure if it was facing me :) ))
(8) Uester: ((Not having a good fumble day))
** (17) Lin Chien says something impolite in his native language, and hastily draws another dagger **
(2) Dragonpearl: ((okay, just for reference, #2 is menacing Selini, #1 is heading that way))
(2) Dragonpearl: Gwal lfts his ring and #1 stumbles towardst eh basin.
(2) Dragonpearl: Selini
** (10) Selini lets out a cry of alarm as she had been thinking herself somewhat safe and brings her hand flying back towards her, burrowing itself into the automation's leg, trying to cripple it before it can hurt her to severely **
(17) Lin Chien: ((You know, we are gluttons for punishment.... we could have just taken the easy way out and killed them with range weapons.... :) ))
(2) Dragonpearl: Roll
(10) Selini: [19-(1d20+2+2)] -> [19,-14,-2,-2] = (1)

(7) Gwalchmai: (are we having any effect?)
(10) Selini: ((SOMEONE decided to push them off the edge of the thingie!))
(10) Selini: [1d4] -> [3] = (3)
(17) Lin Chien: ((Is Uester using a shield +1?))
(8) Uester: ((Oh yes, so I am. Does that give +1 damage?))
(2) Dragonpearl: The one manacing Selini seems pretty banged up. It swings its scimiatar at her and chips begin to crumble from it.
(2) Dragonpearl: ((yes))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((adjusted hp))
(8) Uester: ((cool))
(2) Dragonpearl: Sadly tho, it swings and hits her for 6 damage.
(10) Selini: (gah... attack the HAND you stupid thingie!)
** (17) Lin Chien changes his mind about the dagger, and instead tosses his main hand dagger to his off-hand, swiftly drawing the magical scimitar with his main hand **
(2) Dragonpearl: Guardian #1 is still approaching.
(2) Dragonpearl: Uester
** (10) Selini lets out a cry and falls to a knee, holding her shoulder as blood begins to seep from it, mixing with the violet of her dress to create something of a maroon **
(8) Uester: Can I attack G2?
(2) Dragonpearl: yup
** (8) Uester attacks the guardian with a roar. (maybe the roar will help) **
(8) Uester: Attacks: Battle Axe: Hit: [16-1d20] -> [16,-10] = (6) Damage: [1d8+4] -> [7,4] = (11)
(2) Dragonpearl: The axe misses
(2) Dragonpearl: Initiative
(8) Uester: (+1 for being higher up the steps?)
(2) Dragonpearl: still misses
(10) Selini: (The roar, however, hits)

(2) Dragonpearl: Go Lin
** (17) Lin Chien thrusts out his dagger to catch the blade of the statue, while swinging the magical scimitar around in an overhead arc ((block attempt using dagger, normal attack with scimitar)) **
(17) Lin Chien: Att:[18-1d20] -> [18,-20] = (-2) Dam:[1d8+3] -> [8,3] = (11)

(8) Uester: ((22 damage has got to be it))
(17) Lin Chien: ((It better be, or I am calling a cab))
(8) Uester: ((And of course there's that other 7, too))
(2) Dragonpearl: Lin deftly blocks the sword with his dagger and is surprised when his dagger does not cut the blade like it normally would with gold. In fact it gives off a brassy ring.
(17) Lin Chien: ((No, the dagger was used to parry his scimitar, since I suspect normal weapons don't hurt em anyway))
(2) Dragonpearl: Lin';s scimitar whats it with a thunk. ((whats the mag bonus on that thing?))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((read it again Lin))
(17) Lin Chien: ((+2... I already factored the damage in))
(2) Dragonpearl: It is still moving, albiet very slowly and with chucks falling off.
(2) Dragonpearl: Selini
(8) Uester: ((Actually the scimitar has 1d8 damage, the dagger has 1d4))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((either shot would have worked))
(17) Lin Chien: ((Str bonus, specialization bonus, etc))
** (10) Selini has her hand retain its grasp on the guardian and waves her hands, causing the hand to glow a blinding white against the creature **
** (17) Lin Chien eyes the magical scimitar appreciatively **
(10) Selini: (using Chill Touch with the hand as the touching agent)
(2) Dragonpearl: ((damage))
** (7) Gwalchmai wonders if he underpriced the value of the scimitar **
(10) Selini: (it says it only works against living creatures, but I think freezing the thing should also do something here... I hope anyway)
(2) Dragonpearl: ((not gonna comment))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((just roll)
(10) Selini: [1d4] -> [2] = (2)
(10) Selini: (it also loses a point of STR, or gets a -1 to attack and damage if STR doesn't apply)
(2) Dragonpearl: Ice covers it and its off arm falls off. ((only if it has a soul. Thats what chill touch does))
(2) Dragonpearl: It is still moving though.
(2) Dragonpearl: Gwal
** (7) Gwalchmai points his rings at G2 and pushes it towards the basin **

(2) Dragonpearl: [1d6] -> [2] = (2)
(2) Dragonpearl: [1d6] -> [5] = (5)

(10) Selini: [1d10+1] -> [4,1] = (5)
(2) Dragonpearl: Go Lin
(2) Dragonpearl: G1 is in y'alls face now.
** (17) Lin Chien pounces on the remaining statue nimbly, weaving his scimitar in a blinding offense as his dagger darts in hopefully **
(17) Lin Chien: Att:[18-1d20] -> [18,-5] = (13) Dam:[1d8+3] -> [5,3] = (8)
(17) Lin Chien: Att:[19-1d20] -> [19,-10] = (9) Dam:[1d4+3] -> [3,3] = (6)

(17) Lin Chien: ((Can't get lucky all the time... :) ))
(2) Dragonpearl: Selini and Gwal
(7) Gwalchmai: (where is G1?)
** (10) Selini sends the hand, still glowing with an unearthly light towards the second guardian, intending to mke use of her spellcasting while it was still in effect... **
(8) Uester: ((In yo face))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((zactly))
(10) Selini: [19-(1d20+2)] -> [19,-20,-2] = (-3)
(2) Dragonpearl: You hit it. roll the 1d4 dam and the chill damage
(10) Selini: [1d4] -> [4] = (4)
** (7) Gwalchmai retreats up the steps away from the guardian **
(2) Dragonpearl: Selini, chill damage?
(10) Selini: (chill doesn't do separate damage, it does 1d4 same as the hand, do they both hit or is it just the spell?)
(10) Selini: [1d4] -> [1] = (1)
(2) Dragonpearl: ((you whack it with the hand, 1d4 and chill it 1d4))
(10) Selini: (there is the chill... sorry... I need to understand my own spells better ;p)
(2) Dragonpearl: ((im assuming you are whacking it full force and not just poking it))
(10) Selini: (yea... after its friend stabbed me! and ruined my pretty dress!)
(2) Dragonpearl: G1 swings at Uester and pings off of his armor
(2) Dragonpearl: Uester
(23) Uester (enter)
(2) Dragonpearl: Go Uster
(23) Uester: Terribly sorry. My go?

(2) Dragonpearl: Gwal and G1 go at the same time
(23) Uester: ((You know. If I'd known they'd be this much bother I would have stayed at home))
** (7) Gwalchmai points his ring at G1 and pushes him towards the basin again **
(2) Dragonpearl: [1d20] -> [7] = (7)
(2) Dragonpearl: G1 gets shoved but it recovers
(2) Dragonpearl: It swings at Uester again, missing
(2) Dragonpearl: Lin and Uester go
** (17) Lin Chien dances to the side, his scimitar arcing in at the statue's back as it faces off with Uester. He then crouches and springs up, ramming his dagger upwards into the creature's spine, forcefully **
(17) Lin Chien: Att:[18-(1d20-2)] -> [18,-11,2] = (9) Dam:[1d8+3] -> [5,3] = (8)

(17) Lin Chien: ((Just die already....))
(17) Lin Chien: ((:) ))
** (23) Uester burries his axe in the guardians chest even as lin strikes it from behind. **
(2) Dragonpearl: It rears back a tiny bit but regains its footing. Lin misses it.
** Dragonpearl ((waits fer selini)) **
(17) Lin Chien: ((What? It's not dead? Dammit!))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((again, look at the effect your shiled had against it versus everyones blades))
(23) Uester: ((It's only a golem type of thing. What say I arm-wrestle it for the treasure in the temple?))
(17) Lin Chien: ((Oh, right. blunt weapons))
(7) Gwalchmai: (blunt weapons instead of blades))
(23) Uester: ((How much damage did my shield do?))

(2) Dragonpearl: ((just cause I said I wouldnt have alot of skelleis didnt mean I wasnt gonna throw sowmthing nastier at you guys.))
(17) Lin Chien: ((Hmmm... I figure even using my pry bar, the damage hlved for scimitar and stuff, is still better))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((you wanna bet?))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((brbm, getting water))
(7) Gwalchmai: (maybe blades do no damage)
(17) Lin Chien: ((I retract that statement... for pry bar it's 2-7 while for the scimitar (halved) it's 2-5))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((Alright, looks ike Myst gott booted))

(2) Dragonpearl: [1d4] -> [2] = (2)
(2) Dragonpearl: Initiative
** (17) Lin Chien shakes his head with disgust, noting that even the magic scimitar is not having much of an effect, and breaks out his emergency weapon - a tool once ntroduced by a friend in the second-storey business. **

(23) Uester: "If I ever meet the person who made these I swear I'll show them how effective blunt weapons really are," he says standing up stiffly.
(2) Dragonpearl: Gwal finds that the scimitars are nothing but highly polished brass
(2) Dragonpearl: ((and just think. what other nasties are INSIDE?)
(17) Lin Chien: ((Wow, I think I went through every single weapon in my arsenal... exceot for great scimitar))
** (17) Lin Chien retrieves the daggers stuck in the guardians, examining them for signs of damage before slipping them back in his wrist sheath **
(7) Gwalchmai: (actually i was more interested in how they we're made))
(2) Dragonpearl: ((heh. Okay, we end it here, my back hurts that and I want Selini for the rest too.))
(2) Dragonpearl: The statues are nothing more than fired clay golems of some kind

(17) Lin Chien: From the Guardians group
(2) Dragonpearl: nope
(2) Dragonpearl: why>? she wants to play?

(2) Dragonpearl: She's strong enough to wrestle one
(23) Uester: How many sorts are there?
