Come now. How many Ravenloft DMs can say they have a PC run through the Barovian forest.

At night.

Alone.

Unarmed.

I'd be derelict in my duties if I didn't let you run into some wolves. It'd be a breech of contract! I'd be in violation of the Sadistic DM Charter!

Hehe...granted. I'll do my level best to get out of this provided you don't kill me too quickly.

Any grappling-hookable tree limbs in the vicinity, or am I in a clearing? My climb skill kinda sucks, but I don't want to cut out any options at this point.

...TWELVE of them?

Well, it is Barovia. Be glad this isn't Kartakass.

Good tips those, assuming staid Otto Schultheiss of Lamordia knows them. There's loads of trees around, you're in the middle of the forest, Otto can probably reach out and touch one with either arm.

Trees are a DC 15 Climb check.

As for the wolves... they're not really hungry, but they are thinking they might need to protect their kill. They're not attacking yet.

Oh, as a side note, all fear and aura effects have worn off, as has the Dark Knowledge. The lost wisdom will slowly return at the rate of a point a day. Bless, Magic Weapon, and Fly still have a few minutes left of their duration.

Am I forgetting anything?

Okay, for sheer hilarity and cleverness, that post deserves bonus XP. Five hundred at least.

Who's this new ****er, then? o_o;

NeoTiamat · Post by **NeoTiamat** » Mon Jan 21, 2008 2:48 am

Why don't you ask him?

Rock of the Fraternity · Mon Jan 21, 2008 2:50 am

Because he'll only answer with "the person who's going to kill you", by the looks of him. And that just isn't very helpful ... o_o

And thatll make a change from pretty much everyone else we've met how?

Oh ye of little faith....

Dude, don't taunt the DM when we've already been beaten up! >.<

Oops!

I think I can forsee a grisly death for Khalil in the near future at the hands of something big, icky and fond of beating desrt guides with big spiky objects until there is little but fish paste left...

Ohno. o_o We're about to be hitched to the wellbeing of wolves everywhere, aren't we? Even the dire ones who like to eat people. Maybe even werewolves and wolfweres? Aren't we making a stop in Kartakass?! Aaughh! >.<

Don't be silly.

In the desert, there shouldn't be any fishpaste.
