Paladin's log, session 15

(2d10 for updating the wiki)

Kohana does his morning rituals and searches the kitchen some more. He finds a roll of metal as thin as paper. Lucan and Kohana think that something or someone cleaned the floor overnight.

We check out the garden, which has gone fully wild. We find cherries and tomatoes. We move out, and the rooms have lights in them now. The lights make a moving picture on the floor. Kohana calls the creatures "paisley". He steps into the light and voices speak to him. We head toward a pup room. Many balls roll on odd devices in this room. We go down to the next floor.

A display shows some tools used by humans. Some look like the weekee. Kohana makes one go. He makes it and his "paduyay" talk about history. He gets the thing to show words about these devices to explain them.

The next room shows a flayed human with muscles cut away. The room explains about eating food. We go down further.

This room is dark and tells Kohana to put out his light. As Sadian steps in, a deep red light glows and it speaks in Humantongue. Moving in further, more lights come on in a rainbow configuration. We move on toward stairs up.

Lucan finds a door which leads to stairs down. Inyan goes first. As we go down, there is a thumping sound. Another door, which we open. A long corridor lies beyond.

Doors along the corridor have signs by them. Lucan hurts himself opening the door, and Kohana knocks it. The room called "Security" has cubbies, chairs, and spirit boxes. Inyan finds "flashlights" and we each take two. Kohana finds blue cards and some clothing.

He finds small boxes which might talk if they worked, so he uses magic to make them work. We head to the next room, "Maintenance".

This room has more clothing, talk boxes, another spirit box with a map of the place. We move on. The next two are "Operations" and "It".

The first has mundane stuff. "It" is a very cold room, where the thumping is. Cabinets and drawers are all locked, and behind them are racks of spirit boxes. Inyan finds a machine that makes cold wind. Kohana checks out the ice magic and says there is a blizzard in the "it" box.

The spirit boxes have an ups and still have lightning. Kohana makes one go but it asks for things he does not know. So we check out the cabinets. Kohana takes some of the devices and other things. We leave "it".

We find rooms with porcelain drinking fountains and bathing areas like artificial waterfalls.

The next rooms are "Accounting" and "Academic". We go to the latter. This one has many desks and books but nothing useful. We go to the other room. There is a very thick door in the wall, which Kohana opens. Inside is a very small closet full of sacks and empty drawers, with money papers and metal discs. The next room is "Guest Relations" with couches and several jails.

We move on and find a stairway down. There is a humming. A door reads "Power Plant Access 1". Inyan opens the door onto a catwalk over cylinders set into the ground. Pipes and cables connect them to a central pillar, like an octopus designed by an insane arcane wolf.

We cross and find the stairs up. More rooms with learning toys say "Electricity and You" with more lightning, and "Nervous Interaction" which is about brains. We go up. "Einstein's Relatives" which is about light. "Hall of Scientific Heroes" which has statues of many humans.

We turn around and collect our things and go, back to see the human. Back in the woods again, we hear a soft chittering. Spiders of various sizes emerge!

Lucan lets fly and downs two of the small ones. Inyan charges the biggest one and smashes it. The medium spider spits at Sadian. Lucan catches it with an arrow to no avail.

Kohana calls forth a tempest of winter on them and destroys two more small ones, then a blast of icy rays on the big ones.

Sadian mocks the big one. I charge the medium one and miss. (spent d10) Small ones swarm Lucan and Sadian. I catch one with my glaive as it leaps toward Kohana, and Lucan kills another. Inyan pounds the brutish big one and kills it.

The leader tries to spit at me, but I stab it and deflect it. Kohana takes out two more minions.

Sadian cheers himself up and mocks the lead spider, and it dies in shame.

Kohana summons flying rainbow wolves and we leave the area.

Lucan spots a squad of harpies and we try to hide. It seems to work. (spent second d10). Sadian says they might have spotted us anyway and we make a break for it. Some sort of net is across the smoothstone path and we all stop.

Harpies to the left of us, Harpies to the right of us, and a huge Harpy right in front which shrieks at us!

And scene.
