2017-06-27 - Seven Weddings

We are in Lillian's house

  • Time to do some interrogating
    • Retard handles the interrogation by stripping the hobgoblin naked
    • He works for the Red Claw
    • Retard whips it out, pees on the hobgoblin who immediately kills himself via a magic cyanide pill
    • The best minds among us try to figure out what is going on, best guess is the Red Claw is trying to amass an army and use the magic Lillian was developing
      • We remember we're looking for Soulbloom Flower and we have Lillian's rings
    • The party takes a short rest
  • We head off to the mausoleum to commune with Lillian... hopefully
    • We hear weeping coming from the mausoleum
    • Retard enters and attempts to communicate with Lillian
    • Lillian responds asking for her Marcus
    • Retard asks how she dies, she isn't interested in talking
    • We ask if she's killing the brides, she doesn't want to talk about them
    • Retard asks about Soulbloom and the plant life in the mausoleum twitch and grow slightly
    • We determine the vines are Soulbloom
    • FiZi collects some Soulboom while Retard and Terry speak with Lillian
    • We ask Lillian why she's pissed, she says it's because Marcus left her here to die
    • Terry tells Lillian by telling her we'll help her finish the ritual started
      • She seems to go for it, we need to go get Marcus
      • Retard asks what will happen at the conclusion of the ritual, she reaches out and touches Terry
        • Lillian transfers all of the knowledge of her ritual into Terry
    • Terry grabs the rings and some Soulbloom and heads to Lillians lab, FiZi goes with him
    • Retard and Snowrunner head back to town to get Marcus
  • Terry and FiZi have an uneventful trip to the lab
  • Retard and Snowrunner find the door open to the prison seemingly waiting for them
    • Seems the guards got smacked around and Marcus + Bride 3304 are missing
      • Ronald assisted them in their escape
    • Retard finds out where Marcus would go to elope and Snow and him head off
    • Retard sends a villager to fetch FiZi and Terry
    • Retard and Snowrunner get to the wedding and Retard interrupts them best he can
    • Snowrunner explains the situation to Marcus, Marcus doesn't believe him
    • Retard appeals to the logic of the priest, Ronald
  • Smash cut to Lillians place
    • The villager enters, delivers Retards message to FiZi
    • Terry just then completes his ritual
    • FiZi pays the villager, picks up Terry and they haul ass to meet up with Retard
  • Retard is tricked(?) into getting Keylie to say "I do", she drops dead
  • The body of Keylie starts to tremble and a specter of some kind emerges from her body
  • <FINAL FANTASY FIGHT MUSIC GO>
    • Retard hits Keylie 
    • Snow hits Keylie 
    • Keylie starts making out with Retard and literally sucking the life out of him
    • Second specter emerges, attacks Snowrunner, hits and start making out with him sucking the life out of him
    • Suddenly from the bushes, Terry and FiZi emergy
    • FiZi uses his moment to fling Terry who casts Chromatic Orb mid-air, the Ord smacks into the specter latched on to Retard
    • The specter latched on to Retard loses her grip
    • FiZi fires at the specter attacking Snowrunner, critical misses but avoids any consequences
    • Retard attacks the specter latched on to Snowrunner, hits but fails to break her off Snowrunner
    • Retard action surges, hits again but fails to knock her off again
    • Snowrunner goes down as the specter sucks all the life out of him
    • One of the specters swings at Retard, misses and tries to flee, Retard gets a AOO and hits
    • The other specter heads to Terry, hits and then flees, Terry gets a AOO and hits
    • Terry fires another chromatic orb at the specter closest to him and misses
    • FiZi fires an arrow at the specter closest to Terry and hits
    • Retard jumps at the specter above him, attacks, hits and kills Keylie
    • Snowrunner saves against death, passes
    • Remaining specter comes down and swings at Terry, misses, floats back up and provokes a AOO, Terry misses
    • Terry shoots a fire bolt at the specter and hits, Terry backup
    • FiZi fires an arrow and misses
    • Retard runs over to Snowrunner and stabilizes him
    • Specter comes down and attacks Retard, hits, flees provoking a AOO, Retard hits and kills her
  • Retard pours the flask of semen down Snowrunners through
    • High-fives all around
  • Terry uses a healing potion on Snowrunner
  • We grab Marcus
  • We get Marcus and Lillian married and Lillian becomes mortal... I think
  • Terry asks what Lillian's studies were all about
    • She has been trying to figure out eternal life for her and Marcus
    • The rings were a step in that direct
    • She says she was able to contain the soul of a small beast within her own at one point
    • The only thing that could bring a soul to ease was another soul, you could calcify your soul into a cage to trap another
    • She says it's a way to protect/hide a soul from harm
    • She was only able to contain small souls, a mouse was as far as she got
    • Terry asks what the host gains by doing this
      • Nothing it turns out, it's supposed to be voluntary
      • If you were to force a soul into another the contained soul would be trapped
      • Only great magic can reverse this but if the host dies the contained soul dies
    • Her transmutation magic is what lets you contain a soul
    • She says you could contain an army of souls
    • Lillian has notes in her lab and recommends great caution trying to do it ourselves
    • Retard wants to screw with Popes soul
    • Terry asks what would happen if you hosted a higher being inside yourself, like a celestial being
      • You could safe-keep a soul or hide it that way
      • Terry asks if it could be transferred to a empty vessel, she doesn't know
      • FiZi flips the question, what if a celestial being wanted to hid a soul in it
      • There is a inverse relationship between the host and the amount of magic it takes to contain a soul
        • A human can do a mouse
        • Celestial could do a human
        • More powerful magic can hold more
      • FiZi muses out loud about how some of the gods recently went missing
        • Lillian suggests you'd need nine vessels of great power to do this
        • She says you'd need to get a legion of studied power wizards to do this but it is possible, very unethical
  • The town throws us a party, pays us 250gp
  • Session over, quest complete
