Hunger Abated (EN, The Sewers, Event)

[Nihira]

D4 EN Hunger Abated Fear Willpower +1k1 with void 3k3 TN20 rolled 23

Nihira saw what was out there in that room so she took a deep breath to settle herself before moving forward and trying to get into position. Slick stones seemed to have it out for Nihira as she slipped just enough to land in the water. Gross.

Simple action to move straight up to water, but then fall in.
D4 EN Hunger Abated Athletics/Strength to jump over water and land on other side during movement 6k3 vs TN 15 rolled 13

Water reduced to 1 (10 feet range with simple action, simple action to move 5' up to edge of water and stones and maybe pull self up onto stones, if not then enjoying a swim)
D4 EN Hunger Abated Athletics/Strength to swim 5' 6k3 TN? rolled 20

[Jewel]

(Transparency that I forgot to post before: A target completely submerged has +5TNtbH due to obscurement and 1 Reduction due to lost momentum to attacks originating outside the water. Attacks from within the water do not have this penalty and the target loses this bonus if surfacing to attack something outside the water. Allowed Nihira to edit her post given this information)

[Jewel]

(Simple action move, simple action move to jump - fails, free action move to the edge but no move left to climb out)

Nihira, slipping and falling into the disgusting morass, manages to push through to the other lip but not yet lift herself out of the sewage.

(Faruq is up)

[Faruq Al-Farhan]

This time, he stood strong. Despite the bizarre, twisted creature he could see in the distance, another corrupt version of the strength of nature, he stood strong.

Whoever the responsible for this was, he could not keep getting away with it.

The worry was clear on Faruq's face when he saw the Ra'Shari fall into the water - the memory of the kind of danger they could find was still clear in scars on his left arm.

But warning about that again now would do nothing but reveal his position. For now, he just waited.

-----
D4 EN - Fear 3 check. Voided | 4k4 ⇒ 37 (TN: 16) - Finally passed a Fear check! And of course I didn't need the VP now, but better safe than sorry.
Faruq will delay his action to just before the Jackghul.

Still in defence stance - TN 19
1/2 VP used.

To all other PCs - do note this that Faruq will have said while we were getting to this area!

[Qara al-Hazaad]

Qara didn't care about such trivilaities as Fear. Her Jinn did not give a damn.

For now she decided to join the side with the bridge,, and cautiously dropped down into the water. Hopefully she won't be eaten, as her Jinn followed as well.


OOC:
D4 EN Fear 3, VP for +1k1 | 4k4+4 ⇒ 26 (TN: 20)

Complex+Complex+Free to get in water, in water, can't get up on other side.

Jin does same.

[Jewel]

Unbound by mortal physical laws the Jinn hovers over the surface of the water without being slowed by it allowing it to guard its charge as she moves.

(Simple action move, simple action guard. As per Discord Faruq continues to hold action until before Crocoghul)

Displaying a disturbingly human cunning, though quadruped speed, the once-jackal moves swiftly across plank and floor towards where the Ra'Shari flounders in the muck though stops short to take cover behind the table and gorilla corpse.

(Called shot (1 raise) to hit Jackghul if firing from opposite side of the table)

[Al-Haddar]

Al-Haddar was courageously keeping himself as far away as the water as possible, courageously looking for an ideal position to throw rocks without exposing himself.

---

Simple Action: Move forward as far as possible (Water 2) on solid ground while hugging the right wall, hoping to get into a position with a better view of the scene (and ideally a nice view of a certain necromancer's back)

Defense Stance, ATN23

D4EN | Hunger Abated
Fear 3 | VP for +1k1 | 3k3+1 ⇒ 28 (TN: 20)

Fear passed, somehow

[Claudia Gabinus]

Time to send in the infantry.

Day 4 Hunger Abated EN, Fear 3 roll, spending a void point, TN 20 | 4k4+4 ⇒ 24 (TN: 20)

Claudia grimly focuses on her task as she and her grandfather walk forward, shields raised side by side. With a quiet sigh and a murmur of 'another pair of sandals, ruined' she steps into the flowing water and starts slowing crossing it. But the weight of her armour and shield makes getting out onto the other bank tricky.

Day 4 Hunger Abated EN, simple action to try and climb out of the sewage. Athletics/strength TN 10, but shield pentalty. | 2k2-5 ⇒ 3 (TN: 10)

"I told you granddaughter, never skip leg day."
"Grandfather this is obviously an upper body strength problem."
"It's a strength of character problem is what it is."
"Oh ancestors."

((
Free action move up to the edge of the water, simple action to cross it, simple action to try and get out
They'll both shift into defence stance to raises their ATNs to 33 and 30 respectively))

[Jewel]

(Can't shift stance round 1. Al-Haddar let me know if I misinterpreted how far right you wanted to go since you have movement left)

Her grandfather's ghost grumbles as he moves around her to be at the lip on the other side.
