Chapter Five - Bleeding Out

[Trogdor]

Having arrived at a burning Farshore, the Sea Wyverns have split up to deal with the various threats they've identified. Fin has been assigned the closest threat, a man dying in the streets near the docks.

GM

This is a thread for Fin only.

[Trogdor]

After a quick jog over to the man bleeding his life out onto the street, Fin can tell that he's a middle-aged man with a stab wound in his side. Lying on the ground next to him is a box full of lab equipment, some broken, and half having spilled from the box. A quick assessment shows that he has about a minute before he bleeds out completely.

GM

No initiative needed on this one. Fin can just post his action.

[veritas]

Fin reaches down and lays his hands upon the man, praying to Procan to heal his wounds.

Action

Sacrifice Shield of Faith to cast Cure Light Wounds on the man, sheet updated

OOC

Does the man look like a pirate or a settler? I just kind of assumed he was a settler, but figured I'd check

[Trogdor]

As Fin prays to Procan, a soft green glow surrounds his hand and the man's bleeding stops. He's still in no way well, but at least he regains consciousness.

"Oh dear," he says when he sees Fin hovering above him. "Who are you?" His voice echoes the ambivalence in his mind. He feebly raises one hand. "If you're one of those pirates looking to take me captive, you've got another thing coming." It's a hollow threat. But the man clearly has some backbone.

Roll

CLW: heals 9 HP

He's definitely a colonist.

As for the healing, you got him above 1 HP, but he's still pretty bad off.

[veritas]

Fin shakes his head and continues his prayers, speaking after his work is done.

"No, my name is Fin. I'm a cleric of Procan, working with the Sea Wyverns and Lavinia Vanderboren. Our ship was separated from hers in a violent storm, Procan had other work he wished us to do in the jungle... but it appears that we've arrived here just in time to help.

"I'm supposed to rendezvous with my compatriots at the temple, is there some place you can go to hole up until we've dealt with the attack?"

Action

Sacrifice the empty 4th level spell slot to cast Cure Critical Wounds on the man, sheet updated

[Trogdor]

Fin calls upon Procan once more and the man looks substantially better.

"Oh yes," the man says, gathering his wits quicker than most would in a similar situation. "Lavinia said there had been another ship traveling with her. We've been watching for you these past weeks." As he speaks, he quickly picks up his belongings. "Hevrik Aldwattle, by the way," he adds with a nod by way of introduction.

Then, in response to Fin's question, he replies, "yes, yes, I was headed somewhere safe when a pirate caught me with a lucky strike. I should be fine. You go tend to the chapel. We'll talk more when this is done." He smiles weakly. "And welcome to Farshore."

Roll

Fin casts CCW on Hevrick: 30 healed

[veritas]

Fin gives the man a reassuring smile, "Thank you, and I'm pleased to make your acquaintance. Procan guide you to safe harbors."

With that, Fin checks the surrounding area for pirates or other civilians in need of attention...

Action

Assuming there's nothing else of note in the area, Fin will advance towards the chapel, readying his trident and shield as he moves.

[Trogdor]

Aldwattle is safe, and so Fin rushes on. This time he's heading toward the chapel, where some pirates were trying to break in to get at the people huddled inside. There was no way this priest of Procan was going to let those pirates defile a chapel like that.

GM

I'm going to make a uniform map for everything and put everyone on it. Fin will join the map on Round 5, having used a Move action to get to the edge of the map.
