>>183740Lets establish this now
You have FUCKALL grounds to 'establish' anything, not put on by GM
>>183690"I need to know of those practicing necrotic arts
To prepare an end for thier farce
For the rumors, on my people, fear impart
So if you could please my question parse
And reveal to me for what I yearn
So of the truth I can learn"
I was trying to give you an out so I didn't have to kill you for being undead! Reeeeeee take the bone when it's thrown to you sometime! No this is unresolvsd!>>183699Dust's head whips to the Hyena as he shoots a look of "you too?"
>>183742Establish what? I didn't establish anything.
>>183743"What is it that you wish to learn? Be more specific please."
Hooves step on the ground. Air quivers and waves behind the party. Muttering sounds can be heard
While everyone in the group was watching the sheep, and a fight over the sheep, something has walked through the fog
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight ponies have walked up in front of the group in a line. One near the center wears white and has a white hat. He holds a revolver. Three behind him wear green tinted uniforms, and hold long rifles. And another four carry wrenches or no weapons at all, all in blue uniforms. Their eyes are shot. They shake. They mutter to themselves. But they hold themselves up, in a ready position.
Behind the group, black circles appear in the air, and from them comes the smell of fire.
Large, canine-like creatures with humped backs, pointed ears and bat-like faces, and fire that periodically rises from their backs like burning coals, besides glowing orange eyes.

>>183752Ive got a shocker for Orcus
Oh, he's punishing me too. Orcus is a huge jerk.
>>183748Dust is looking obviously fustrated at this point
"Perhaps this shall wait until another day
When we are out of the fray
But pray heed you little mare
Do not awaken a sleeping bear"
He picks up his flail and whips around in time to see ponies emerging from the fog.
>>183749Dust's withers slump. Dear Zanit he's really starting to regret joining the crack-team.

Really sorry.
Rolling initiative to see if the sheep runs away before Brie's turn
[1d20 = 1]
>>183760>tfw no initative bonus and still going firstFeels good man.
Dust readies himself to cast.... A spell, but before I pick said spell.
Knowledge religion, Dust wants to know if these ponies are possessed or if they just look really bad. Also I guess those hounds are a concern. Unfortunately, I don't think I'm getting my undead....
[1d20+9 = (17+9) = 26] >>183761U should be good. And for clarity, Im not against the sheep, Brie is.
>>183762Outsiders, evil aligned. Yeth, or more likely, Hell
I think Dust is in the rear line, and thus more likely to be attacked
>sheep
I interpreted hearing voices as a short-lived gag because Posey believed the sheep to be an avatar of that goat-demon-thing. It seemed purely comedic and Posey rolled with that but Brie, in-character, treated it seriously. It should have been let go before it turned into PvP, non-lethal or not.
The safest place for the sheep would be anywhere on the island the party isn't at, because the party is headed towards hungry communists and is currently fighting demon-things. Also, the party has a voracious carnivore and a paranoid schizophrenic bat.
>>183764Awwwwww.... I don't have antioutsider spells.
Regardless, Dust is even more mad at this. However, instead of attacking himself he makes his way over to Kira. He looks her in the eyes as he reaches a hoof to touch her weapon. She can see a blue glow travel from the earth, through Dust's three planted hooves, into his fourth hoof and into her bow. It feels noticeably colder.
"I hope for now this will suffice
To imbue your bow with the essence of ice"
All arrows will do an extra +1d6.
He then readies himself in front of Kira to defend her until his next turn
>>183764You didn't answer about the ponies, tho>>183766Kira: "D'awwwwwwww, thank you Dust!"
>>183762They are not in good health, but yes. They looks possessed, or at least, their eyes and mannerisms are creepy
>>183765This is exactly what happened
Okay. This actually does change things.

>>183771Dust is hit with a wrench in the flank as he's trying to help Kira. Although his armor prevents it from being too bad, it's still gonna bruise in a few minutes and hurt like a bitch.
Cavaliere's turn.
Also, everyone please roll damage on your round
>>183771The hellhound bites down on Silver, only to find a mouth full of flak jacket and no pony flesh to speak of.
Kira noodles her way out of the way of the hoof attack, looking at the sailor with pleading eyes. "Please, don't do this! Fight the Traveler, fight him!"
>>183771>>183777The pony with a rifle misses.
Cavaliere draws his revolver in the blink of an eye and blasts off two rounds at his assailant.

>>183781Damn, thats an instant kill with some metrics
>>183782Pretty sure 14 damage should put him in the dying condition anyway.
>>183780Cavaliere shoots the Marine straight in the head right beneath his helmet and between the eyes.
He falls to the ground, limp
>>183781>>183782It's a pretty simple 3x damage
>>183771Mala's turn
Mala aims and shoots twice at the hound that tried to bit him

>>183788This would be the first time Kira has seen any sentient creature die, at least in direct combat
Fluffernoodle is after Posey
>>183788Brie tries to pass a glance at Silver about Kira's credulity, but now probably isnt the yime

[1d20+4 = (5+4) = 9]She shouts out to the hellhounds, in infernal
[r]"निष्ठावान् श्वापदाः अग्निम् अयच्छन्ति, एते टट्टूः उन्मत्ताः अभवन्, अयोग्याः स्वामिनः च सन्ति। तेषां कृते स्वस्य च कृते पलायस्व"
In case that didn't translate well, she told the hellhounds to surrender, because their masters have gone mad and there is no reward for their loyalty.
