Chapter 2

Skeleton

One of the skeletons with bow burn down from guiding bolt, but the other fall trembling.
The last one dash toward Travers and Unril but is killed by them before he manages to attack

OOC:

I'm skipping next round of combat as it it obvious you will win the last skeleton

You find out those were 9 skeletons each with a shortsword and 4 of them with shortbows. They did not have enough arrows however if you care to gather those shot at you and those left with shooters you have 12 arrows all together.

OOC:

Your loot is 9 shortswords, 4 shortbows and 12 arrows if you want to carry them - that is your choice, but you would be able to sell them at half price when back in the city

OOC:

We are out of initiative and you could make your long rest, no penalties for rest interruption.

You continue your travel as before - Ha'aroo as navigator and normal peace.

OOC:

Let me know if you want to change navigator, peace or target of your journey
For now I will be rolling Ha'aroo survival

What do you do?
You need to decide on your action - move SW without knowing where you are, stay in the area, or maybe move SW but at slow peace?

Chapter 2

OOC:

DM i just want to remind you that my survival is +4 due to jack of trades ability. Not sure if that would have mattered on previous rolls but just thought id remind you. I wasnt able to say anything the last time we got lost as it didnt show my modifier that time.

Ha'aroo will definitely take a bow and a few arrows if the group doesnt mind.

OOC:

How do you all want to do loot for mundane or magical items going forward? Here is a thought im thinking but i dont really care and however you all would like:
*Gold can just be split up equally
*Mundane items people can take what they need and the rest gets stockpiled on one of the mules to be sold later. Roll off if more than one wants the item
*Permanent Magic items whoever wants it rolls for it. If you have an magic item you cant roll off for another magic item until everyone has one.
*Consumable magic item is the same as permanent magic items but doesnt count towards everyone getting a permanent magic item.

maybe im going too much into it haha

Seeing how Travers was able to block some of those arrows that took Ha'aroo out, Ha'aroo asks Travers for a little advice and training on how to use a shield when they have down time throughout the days to come.

Ha'aroo would recommend we head southwest from wherever we currently are at normal pace but wouldn't object if others would like to go slower.

Ha'aroo's suggestion seems good to me.

Nebula nods in agreement, "Let's keep going, or we'll surely be discovered by some other creatures looking for a fight

Chapter 2

Shara has no need for mundane weapons, so she lets the others loot the skeletons. Later, she agrees with Ha'aroo, but suggests moving at a slower pace to try to regain their bearings.

OOC:

That idea about loot sounds fair.

OOC:

I assume Ha'aroo takes all arrows and 1 shortbow. I've put the rest of the loot in this thread for convenience and will try to keep it up to date - please help me with that

Note: I did indeed forget about jack of trades ability. It did not matter up to now but I will remember it in future.
While Ha'aroo is the navigator I will take his decision and this is anyway a routine procedure you should figure out how to do with time.

Day 12
Ha'aroo realizing that navigating in the Chult is really difficult task, explains everyone that they should just keep going and eventually will be back on track. And he is right, you find a hill from where you eventually understand where you are and are able to finish the day in the chosen direction (though yesterday you moved North and will need to go south now)

Day 15
Ha'aroo continue navigation hoping to find other hills. And indeed he finds and you understand that you have drifted south
Now you have a decision to make: you could keep going SW and miss to check Camp Righteous for any survivors or loot or you could go NW that is a bit of an extra path to make (if your navigation would have problems then it would add one more day to travel)

[ +- ] Two paths possible

Day 17

OOC:

Sorry for making this decision for you but I just realized I want you to visit Camp Righteous for the story purpose so I'm moving you foward

Another good navigation day You spot something at the distance and recall Syndra remarks that this local guides call this place "House of the Crocodile", because it is obvious why

You come upon an abandoned riverside camp strewn with wreckage. The tents are moldy and tattered, and all the permanent structures appear to have burned to the ground. Two intact rowboats are tied off to a short dock further away

You see a ridge, built into which is an 80-foot-tall stone statue carved to look like a man with a crocodile on his back. In front of statue there is a crude animal pen with a small, panicked bird running around inside it. There are no other signs of life.

OOC:

WHAT DO YOU DO? You approach camp by red arrow I've drawn there. The tree to your left (to right on the map) is on a 10 feet higher ground which is reason you don't see beyond it.

Chapter 2

Ha'aroo staches the extra weaponry in the chest on his mule for the group to possibly use at a later time before the group moves on.

As they approached the camp Ha'aroo turns to the group "Do you all want to check this place out? See if there is anyone here who would want to help us with information on this jungle? Or see if the soulmonger is here?"

Upon sight of the bird that seems to be in a frantic state Ha'aroo asks the group for a few minutes so he can ritually cast speak with animals to see if this bird has any information and why it seems so scared. If there are no objections then he will ritually cast speak with animals and talk with the bird.

If there are objections and the group wants to move on Ha'aroo will continue to move on.

OOC:

DM question for you. Would these boats be usable while we have our mules? Will there be any mechanical changes due to having mules with us?

Chapter 2

Jim has no problems about entering the camp with his mule pulled and following him. "Place been long since abandoned, but that bird shouldn't be here." Feeling a touch defensive Jim takes his shield to his hand as he looks about. He pulls up next to Ha'aroo while he is ritual casting to speak to the bird.

"Oh no! Is it stuck?" Nebula moves to the gate of the pen, ready to open it if Ha'aroo manage to calm it down.
"Poor thing, it's in a real state"

Chapter 2

OOC:

It is not yet 24 hours but I have found time to finish with descriptions and map, so everyone except Tasrek have another approx 23 hours to post their PC actions, while Ha'aroo spend his 10 minutes to ritual casting. Please also let me know if anyone want just stay there in the tent area and wait those 10 minutes

As some of you move forward while Ha'aroo spent his time of ritual casting you see that all of the tents (area 2) are slashed and all the canvas is at the point of disintegration from mildew and jungle rot.
Nebula realise that the bird is kind of bird unable to fly and this is trapped inside the enclosure.

Now as you see the crocodile satute at different angle you realise: Between the statue’s feet is a stone archway leading to a dark tunnel
There are also 2 bigger tents (1) in a better condition, a burnt-out building (3) and some pits (5).

OOC:

See map
Yellow circles are some party member red - bird
Picture of a bird just illustrate visual
There are- there is +25ft. and +50ft marks. That shows

Mule in canoe...
Mechanically canoe " holds up to six Medium creatures ". Mule is medium and given Ha'aroo could speak to them it will be no problem to get them into canoe. I would consider rolling for some problems with the animals in case of a danger while they are in canoe though. They would in case of panic try to get out of the canoe into the water probably turning canoe upside down. But this would only happen in case of encounter and if they fail fear safe (I will roll wis save with DC proportional to danger they see).

Jim is right next to Ha'aroo and will wait his time there to finish the casting. Mighty strange bird that one is.

As he waits for Ha'aroo and the others Travers will poke around the tents and wander over to the larger tents looking for any clue as to why this place was abandoned and if it's been used recently.

When Travers poke smaller tents they each crumble
Unfortunately everything of value had been removed from both smaller tents and larger ones.

Nebula will wait for Ha'aroo to finish casting while gently cooing to the bird, in the hopes of reassuring it.
