A Dohwar, a Giff, and a Satyr walk into a bar [IC Thread]

[GM Anthraxus]

Rupert rushes across the dark wood and into the passageway to grab Bazz and bring him back, but as soon as he steps fully into the golden light the view of the great golden rose similarly seizes his mind.  To Rupert the rose smells of gunpowder and gun oil, and the golden light reminds him of the golden explosions of the fusillade of the firing line in his greatest battles.  The light was warm like a recently fired cannon, and the boom and blast of those memories drew Rupert to follow Bazz closer to the rose.


Melville and Anders see Rupert rush over to grab Bazz, only to turn and follow him into the glowing passageway.  Anders glances to Melville and whispers, "Dumathoin's beard! That is a dangerous becon.  Let me give you what protection I can offer."  He then whispers a quiet prayer and places his hand on Melville's nearly non-existent shoulder.  Melville feels an odd warmth inside his chest and faintly hears the ringing of hammers against steel.

[[OOC: Rupert, on that earlier Wis save, has also been charmed by the rose. You wish to draw close to the rose and bathe in it's warm loveing fuse-like light.  Recognizing the danger, Anders casts Guidance on Melville.  This will let you take advantage on the Wis save.  Your first roll was a 5, so hopefully your next roll will be higher.]]
