@Stalker05,@AbbyssalChimera Khel and Luna is up

Khel looked at the incoming skeletons and pointed his finger to send out a firebolt towards one of them.

OOC: Taking -1 to conserve power points. Rerolling for specialisation. I am guessing power points are refreshed as a day has passed in game?

OOC:
Yes, though as a quick encounters you don't have to roll damage. Just spellcasting to represent what could be several rounds of combat. The rules suggests rolling 2d6 to see how much PP you spend, but that seems high so let's go with 1d6 since you are conserving power points.

Just @AbbyssalChimera left.

OOC: Since these are skeletons, I was planning to not use any PP, as bolt cost just one and I will be taking -1 to cast it for free. But, if you want I can spend PP for this quick encounter to simulate multiple rounds of combat.

You are quickly able to dispatch the skeletons. And while one is able to get past your defenses and scratch at Saldrina, the rest gets by with a few bumps and bruises. You stand there panting with skeleton parts spread all over the area.

Looking into the burial chamber, you can see the sarcophagus has been broken into. In one corner rests a lone dark blue robe.

"Well fought!" the sheriff says, putting his sword back into its sheathe.
OOC:
Saldrina takes 1 wound which can be Soaked if you wish.
The rest of you take a level of fatigue. We can disregard the PP as they will probably be back naturally before you have need of them.

Li after getting to know where the rest of the heroes are, will try to join them and find out what is going on, and why they were gathered together again.
OOC:
Just tell me the moment when he will join them, don't have to be immediately.

OOC:
Feel free to introduce yourself whenever. Someone at the Rusty Dragon could tell you they took off with the sheriff towards the cathedral.

OOC:
Saldrina will spend a benny to soak the wound.

Looking at the broken sarcophagus, "Is this what the big heads were trying to keep us from?" He takes a peek inside.
OOC:
whoops, forgot the -1

After the battle ended, Khel looked at the broken sarcophagus and noticed the dark blue robe. He scratched his beard trying to think if anything was unique about the blue robe.

OOC: Is it some kind of possession kept there for the dead who was buried in the sarcophagus or is it some kind of evidence stuck there on the one side of the broken sarcophagus?

The robe seems nondescript, regular workmanship (or rather nothing fancy at least), though it don't seem to have had much use. Little tear in the seems and the clasp. Though coming closer to it, anyone with an Arcane Background can detect a magical aura coming from it.

Looking at the sarcophagus, you are not sure what it is supposed to contain (it is not unusal to bury bodies with trinkets), but this sarcophagus is completely empty. Not even bones left.
OOC:
It will take an Occult check to identify the robe.

Oh, and Saldrina needs to make a Vigor roll to see if you are able to Soak the wound or not.

Khel was going to dismiss the robe as ceremonial trinket but when he felt the magical aura his eyebrows were raised. He tried hard to remember if he could get any speck of information about this from all his learning back in the academy.

You do indeed recognize its aura. It's a robe of bones. A robe that can be used to summon skeletons by ripping off "patches" that only the wearer can see. It seems to be out of patches at the moment.
Jul 26, 2024 1:47 pm
When Khel finally understood the magical aura, he exclaimed, "My goodness, the robe has the magic of skeleton summoning! However, it seems to have used up all it's essence. Someone has pillaged this sarcophagus and used the robe to summon skeletons. Sheriff Hemlock, do you perhaps know who was originally buried in this sarcophagus?"

He then took the robe to Chigaru and said, "Maybe Chakra can help us track the owner of the robe?"
Jul 26, 2024 3:30 pm
Chigaru gives a small chuckle. "I guess anything is possible, but she hasn't been trained for that kind of thing. She's mostly just good for eating and getting belly rubs. We can try it if you want."
Jul 26, 2024 4:05 pm
Khel nodded to Chigaru, "I guess then we have to track this individual ourselves. However, I am not an expert in that matter. Do any of you know way of tracking?"

Grim replies, "I did a bit of tracking back in my military days." He starts looking around the area to see if there are any tracks that look promising.

Avstalar Zantus
By this time Father Zantus has rejoined you, having heard the combat quieting down. Seeing the robbed tomb he mutters. "By the godess."

Seeing Saldrina's wound, though he say a short prayer. His hand glows and he touches it to Saldrina's wound. As he does so, the wound closes and all that remains is some blood on the skin.
OOC:
That was a failure to soak, luckily Zantus is here, and can hopefully help.
Meanwhile Grim are able to pick up some tracks, though he is unsure if it's the goblins or the groups'. At least two or three smaller tracks and one bigger.

Khel turned to Father Zantus and inquired, "Father, do you know who was buried in this sarcophagus?"
