Crypt Quest 2 Campfire No.310515[Last 50 Posts]
In a mountainous region of the Ostrich-Pongarian Empire lies the city of Sighorsoara. Situated in a wide valley the city is surrounded by diligently farmed fields that are broken only by thick patches of trees and roads leading to the city. In the center of the valley many wooden structures rise up before a simple wall that looks more like it was built to keep out wildlife and bandits rather than an attacking army. Behind the wall stand many buildings made of stone; most are simple enough, but in two parts of the city large towers and spires that gleam in the noontime sun stand above the surrounding structures. Above even these, though, rise thick, imposing walls made of dark grey stone. A storm cloud sits like a lid at the top of the walls, and a careful eye can pick out a few pegasi maintaining it.
Andelia and Mirabelle
When you arrived home after the events in the crypt below the cemetery outside that small town you found a letter waiting for you. You are unsure how the two friends you made learned where you lived, but once or twice a month a new letter from them would arrive to tell you of their struggles, their successes, and anything else they felt like telling you. These continued for a few months before stopping with no explanation. After a silence spanning more than half a year you received a large sum of foreign coins and a letter with only one word: "Sighorsoara"
Dreamkicker, Pomelo, And Bessy
Nearly a year after the events under the small town's cemetery life has returned to normal, or as close to normal as it can possibly be. This was broken one day by the arrival of two bags of foreign coins and two pictures, one addressed to Pomelo and one addressed to Bessy. Each one looked as if it had been drawn by a pair of foals, and each one had the same thing on it. A goat wearing a large gold crown and a billowing purple cape riding atop a shaved unicorn with an expression of pure stupidity on his face and stink lines rising from his body. Behind them is a buffalo with a feathered headband. They are all standing by a sign that says WELCOME TO SIGHORSOARA.
Olga
After returning home to your land you found a gift waiting for you. A bit of research revealed it to be something that Equestrian worshipers of Nature send to whoever they consider a mentor as a thank yo present. Nearly a year after that you receive a postcard with a picture of a large building that looks to be made of equal parts cut stone and living trees, a few stalks of the uncreative named Sighorsoarian Wildflower, and a bag full of foreign coins. Below the picture are printed words asking the recipient to visit Sighorsoara soon. Both "visit" and "soon" have been underlined.
Happyhorn
After almost a year of living a life from your new perspective a postcard and bag of foreign money appears on your doorstep. The picture on the front is of a city and the words printed above it invite you to visit the beautiful city of Sighorsoara. The postcard itself is addressed to "Mr. or Ms. Happyhorn."
Everyone else
Whether you have been adventuring around the nation or were summoned here with a postcard and bag of coins is your choice.
Would one person from each group, with the exception of the last group, roll 2d10? People in the last group should each roll 2d10.

This happened a while ago. I'm assuming each of you have already traveled to the city. Sorry for not being more clear.
>>310529
You have been in the city for a little over a day now, and your wanderings around it have taken you to the cemetery beyond what you have heard called the Adventurer's District.
>>310532
Your journey has just come to it's end. You stand on a road next to a large, old graveyard. The road continues onwards to the city of Sighorsoara. You can hear the clip clop o hooves behind you.
>>310536
You wander through the large city you have just arrived in and find yourself outside it's walls and in the cemetery. You should pay more attention to where you walk.
>>310538
You stop by a drink vendor's cart in the city's Temple district. The postcard looks the same as several others you have seen in giftshops around the city during your day-and-a-half here, but the words "please" and "visit" have been underlined.
>>310539
The two of you arrived in the city yesterday, and after finding a room and asking a few questions decided that the best place to start looking for the Twins was in a cemetery. So far neither of you have had any luck.
>>310547
There is nothing else written on this note, but the word is large and looks like it was written with urgency. It was obviously written by one of the Twins, and they obviously wanted you to heed their call as fast as you could.
>>310542
>>310531
>>310527
After a long journey the three of you arrived at the outskirts of the city. After stopping for a brief lunch break at an inn by a collection of farmer's huts at the outer edge of the city's field you all continued down the road towards the city. Currently each of you are passing by a graveyard. On the road as well is a pegasus stallion.
>>310552
The last of your coins ran out a a few days before arriving at the city. It's a pity you never paid attention to how they looked.
>>310558
You know that ponies and ostriches live here, and you think that at one point it was two separate nations.
>>310567
With those words you leave the your room in an inn on the west side of the Adventurer's District. It was a cozy enough place to spend the night, but finding a place to stay took up all of your time yesterday.

You spot a goat tossing streamers into a few trees growing around a rest area in the cemetery. It reminds reminds you somewhat of a goat you met before, but this one is the wrong gender.
>>310619
Everything blends together here. The buildings are all tall and look hundreds of years old. There are temples, large and small, seemingly everywhere; many to deities you do not recognize.
>>310620
You toss streamers into the trees near an area that looks like it was meant for visitors that need a place to rest their hooves and mourn. This out to help cheer up any future visitors.

You'll need to roll for that.

The cemetery houses a good portion of the city's dead, so it stretches out pretty far in every direction. You cannot find your way out, but can hear voices from not too far way.
>>310689
You try to scale the sides of the closely packed buildings like the ancient goat assassins, but are unable to get a good hoofhold and nearly fall flat on your back. The people around you are starting to look at you funny.
>>310692
In the inn's common room you spot a pony wearing a rather tall, wide brimmed hat.
"Yes? What is it that you want, miss?"
>>310698
You've done better work before. This looks pretty lousy.

this time your quickly bound your way up onto the back of a large pony, then a cart, then a windowsill, then up onto the roof of one of the smaller buildings. From here you can more clearly see the tops of the grandest temples in this district, one of which gleams with reflected sunlight. In the distance you can see a few tall buildings in another section of the city, and the large wall that separates part of the city from the rest of the world.

As you tap the ground several flowers sprout and bloom. They form a winding path as you walk and before too long you can see the building on the card you received. A path of flowers and soft grass lead between old statues that are held together by creeping vines. The temple itself Stands tall, but not nearly as tall as any of the massive trees surrounding it. The stones making it look as if they would collapse if not for the thick trees holding it up, and the trees look like they would not have grown quite so well if it were not for the water funnel to them by small aqueducts carver into the stone of the building. The doors of the temple stand open.

A path of flowers and soft grass lead between old statues that are held together by creeping vines. The temple itself Stands tall, but not nearly as tall as any of the massive trees surrounding it. The stones making it look as if they would collapse if not for the thick trees holding it up, and the trees look like they would not have grown quite so well if it were not for the water funnel to them by small aqueducts carver into the stone of the building. The doors of the temple stand open.

I frown at you. "As long as it wasn't important."
>>311043
"We're glad to have you along, but It wasn't I who hired you, Perhaps you can let me see your letter? Unless you've burnt it already?"

"I'm afraid we're all new to this city. Indeed, I'm not very familiar with this country, let alone the immediate area.
"But if Happyhorn and…. ugh…. Olga are here, then we should find them. They may know what is going on."
I cast Sight Beyond Sight to see through surrounding walls or buildings. Do I see any goats nearby?

The two of you start walking towards the city. As you draw closer you can hear the sound of a commotion coming from within the Adventurer's district.
>>311055
It's dark in here, and quiet too. You can see no sign of anyone or anything in here.
>>311060
The words were underlined too.
>>311063
There is no writing. The words across the front were printed there by whoever made the card. The underlining is just a line that was drawn later, and a faint one at that.
>>311064
You scramble out of the alleyway and back onto the street. Sitting on a bench with a few other goats you keep your head down until the guards have passed.
>>311075
Many goats, but you can also see the two you seek. Happyhorn is sitting on a bench in the Temple District near a large plaza. Olga is inside the Nature Temple deep inside a small forest in the city. You can see several somethings keeping an eye on her.

You follow the road as it grows wider and eventually come to a large circular plaza. On the leftmost edge you can see the large temple from earlier. It stands taller than anything else around it, and the golden towers and domes reflect the light of the setting sun beautifully. A large sun made of gold leaf stands above the doors, which open to the east to greet the morning sun. The doors themselves are covered with burnished brass and stand wide open, inviting all to enter. There are many other things in this plaza, but the temple currently has your attention.

You can see an armed pony watching the Temple doors while another watches out for danger nearby. Inside the temple you can see several large animals and a few ponies hiding above in the shadows. You can also see a few large birds watch the two ponies outside the temple.

>>311121
You take the lead and end up getting the group lost. The commotion from earlier dies down.
>>311129
Listening closely you can her several things breathing above you.
>>311130
This seems like the right way.
>>311132
You follow along.
>>311133
From your vantage point you can spot several pious looking people walking together in a group. Maybe you can follow them?
>>311138
When you each the door you can hear singing and bells ringing inside. A pony wearing a white robe with yellow designs on it leaves his place by the door an approaches you. He speaks a few languages before finally trying an accented Equestrian.
"It is late, goat. Do you have a place to stay?"
>>311144
You fly up into the air. From up here you can see a large patch of green standing out from the tans and greys of the buildings and the reds and blues of their tiled roofs. That might be a good place to start looking.

Your old hooves drop your staff. The things up there make no move.
>>311169
He huffs.
"It's a robe, not a dress. I am guessing that you are out at this hour because you have recently arrived in the city. If you have already rented a room at one of the inns you should return there quickly. If not we may be able to find a place for you here."

You and the rest of your group follow them to the Temple District. After they reach it they split into smaller groups and disappear into several different buildings. A mare looks out of one of the larger building and shouts at the group.
"What are you fools doing out there?"

>>311193
He scowls and looks away.
"There is something going on every night, and neither the city watch nor the Inquisition can do a thing about it. Evil walks these streets, and those that stay out without the blessed Sun to watch over them often vanish and are never seen again. For your sake either accept a place on a pew for the night, or find a nearby inn."
>>311196
>>311198
"Of course you are fools! I've got some rooms left, so come inside unless you all have a deathwish!"
>>311199
A few bats fly out. It must have just been them.
>>311200
"Inside the forest, numbnuts! Even if you do make it there before the sun sets the trees will only make it easier for them to get you! Hurry and get inside or get going, because I'm locking the door soon!"
>>311202
You dress up like a bird, but keep your current size.

You all file inside and the mare shuts and bars the door behind you. After paying for your rooms the mare gives you the keys and ensures that you head upstairs before retiring to her own room.

"You are neither old nor infirm. If you want a meal we will have to ask that you give a tithe. That can wait for the morning, though."
Once you are inside he pulls the doors shut and disappears into one of the doors leading away from the main worship area.

Despite arriving on different days many of you were able to meet up with old friends and acquaintances. After speaking with each other you all discovered that you were summoned to this city by the same person or persons. A young goat mentioned that even more of your old friends were somewhere in the city, and after she bounced off Dreamkicker was able to use his magic to discern that they were both currently in the city's Temple District. Nightfall arrived before they could find the two missing goats though, and an innkeeper called them into her inn while warning them of the dangers of being out after sunset.
After finding and claiming several empty rooms the party retired for the night.
Everyone but Happyhorn and Olga please roll.
Happyhorn:
You spent most of yesterday exploring the rooftops of the Temple District. After discovering a large cathedral dedicated to the sun you accepted a priest's offer to stay there for the night.
I'll get you in as soon as i can, I promise.

There are tons of of bedbugs and lice in the bed, but a powerful electric shock and a few hearty shakes were enough to get rid off them before retiring for the night. The journey must have been an exhausting one, because you continue to sleep like a little foal.
>>318963
Bad dreams have kept you tossing and turning all night long, stuck somewhere between sleep and consciousness. Your constant rolling has left the bedsheets tightly wrapped around your legs. Once you wake up you will need to roll to escape Helplessness.

They aren't spotless, but they are still pretty clean.

>>319001
You quietly open your door and poke your head out, but it is too dark for you to see anything.

You try to nudge him, but misjudge his location in the dark and fall off the bed face first. The force of your face impacting with the floor causes you to see stars.

You grab your morningstar and begin cleaning the room, completely ignoring the noise your heard.

>>319023
The sound of a goat impacting with the floor is enough to wake you up. You see him yell at you to wake up then walk face first into the door.
>>319032
You gear up and light a candle. Looking out into the hallway you can see nothing. The doors you can see are all shut and a window curtain flutters gently.
>>319026
You open your door a tiny bit and peak out into the hall. You can that Andelia's door is open, and you can also see a few ponies standing at the head of the stairs leading down into the common room. One of them silently pulls another pony through a window. When a light suddenly shines out of Andelia's room they freeze, then slink down the staircase.
>>319028
Once you realize what the problem is you, the world's most flexible buffalo, are able to easily escape from the sheets binding your legs.

Your confusion lasts for only a few seconds. You know what's going on now. After all, you've been through this before. Pomelo is obviously trying to pull some sort of prank on you in the middle off the night. You should go back to sleep.
>>319060
You step out into the hallway and nearly run into Mirabelle.
>>319061

You sneak down the hallway as quietly as a cat and stop just before the window. You can hear the faint sound of a pony breathing coming from the staircase, but you can also spot a shadow in the pool of moonlight coming through the open window.

It looks like the window is open. That's strange because you are pretty sure it was shut when you came upstairs earlier.

You follow hm out and see Pomelo, Andelia, Mirabelle, and Bessy in the hallway.
>>319083
The light from the candle lets allows you to see a muddy hoofprint at the top of the staircase. It's pointing down the staircase and you are certain it wasn't there a few hours ago.

The walls, even your friends, momentarily disappear as your third eye opens. On the staircase you can spot eight ponies, but only one of them is breathing. Hanging on the wall near the window on the outside of the inn is a ninth pony. Before you can warn anyone Andelia and Pomelo walk up to the the head of the staircase where they can been seen by all nine ponies.
>>319101
As soon as you step into the pool of moonlight you can feel a magical grip tighten around you a split second before you are pulled out the window and onto the roof. A moment later a unicorn shows a disturbing amount of agility and climbs up after you and lunges towards you.
>>319104
>>319117
You walk beside her, and when your attention is drown by her suddenly flying out the window the ponies on the staircase charge! Your horns are able to keep them from dogpiling you, but one of them does manage to get a solid hit in.
Everyone make a roll in addition to whatever action you take this round.

You leap out the window and, with a telekinetic blast, throw yourself up onto the roof where you land on the back of the pony assaulting Andelia. You can see moonlight glinting off a pair of fangs poking out of his mouth.
>>319143
To focused on saving Pomelo you only pay attention to aiming and casting your spell. The lightning bolt strikes on of the ponies in the side as you charge into the fight.
>>319144
You blindly rush one of them, and another is able too punch you in the gut. The blow nearly knocks the wind out of you aand stops you dead in your tracks.
>>319145
You are too busy trying to catch your breath to pay attention to anything else.
>>319147
Your smoke canister hits one of them in the eye before exploding into a cloud of smoke. the pony that was hit cries in pain as it loses the use of an eye. Before the cloud envelops the group of ponies you can see that several of them sport two very sharp teeth.
>>319154
Your door was right by the staircase. As soon as you step outside you end up tredding on a pail pony. He screams as one of his legs snap.
>>319157
You keep your hoofing on the rooftop as Mirabelle suddenly rockets up into view and slams down onto your attacker.
>>319153
Two ponies and a very large bird with a long neck look up at you.
"Where did you come from? Who are you?"

The one that lost an eye? Yes.
>>319161
Your stone flies true despite the smoke and strikes his ruined eye. A wet pop is followed by a pained scream as he falls down the staircase.
>>319164
The timber making up the roof bursts through the singles and wraps around the pony that pulled you out the window. He struggles uselessly to get free.
>>319165
You wrap the small goat in your magic and pull him out of the melee.
>>319167
You slam through their ranks like a tank made out of muscle and shaggy fur. You trample another pony underhoof before coming to a stop next to Dreamkicker.
>>319169
You try to do a backflip over Dreamkicker and Bessy, but you trip and land on your back. The fall does what the punch earlier could not and leaves you Helpless.
>>319162
They huddle together and speak in a language that you have come to recognize as the local dialect for a few seconds. Once that is done the bird speaks up. You are Equestrian, correct? An adventurer staying here because you couldn't afford an inn? Can you do something for us? We can pay."

No? The smoke gives you all a +1 bonus against that group for two turns. Losing an eye gave an additional +1 against the now dead pony. Vantage point gives you a +1 until you fail. If you forget to add a bonus onto your roll when you should have on there is a good chance I will forget about it.

Sorry.
"There's an inn nearby where a few of our…friends our staying. Church politics kept them from staying here where they would be safe, so we set up a few wards around the inn to tell of if anything seeking to hurt them entered. We need you to run and warn them before the intruders get to them, and help them fight if they need any help, okay?"

You charge at her and send the mare flying into the wall. The whole part can hear a few of her bones snap when she hits.
>>319209
He opens his mouth to bite you, but the sudden charge of electricity you hit him with makes him bite his tongue as well.
>>319210
You charge through the largest group of them, most are flung to the side but one is horribly mangled as you trample him.
>>319211
You can feel something approaching you a few seconds before you see a light appear in a hallway leading out of the large chamber you are in.

You focus your magic on him and heal his wounded side.
>>319218
You dodge to the side, but your attack misses.
He laughs at you and begins to circle around you.

You walk int the hallway. A young zebra carrying a torch nearly jumps out of his skin as you enter the pool of light cast by his torch.
"Oh! Y-you're awake?"
>>319242
You lower your head and hit her before gravity has a chance to pull her off the wall. There is a loud kersplat as her body bursts and pieces go flying everywhere.
>>319245
"Know them? It could any number of things in or around this city, or maybe even something that followed them here. As long as you are quiet you will be fine, but they might not be if you don't go fast."
>>319247
You bash one off them in the head with your shield. It strikes with the sound of a gong and the stallion goes stumbling away from you…
>>319248
And straight into Pomelo. While the pony is distracted you lock his back legs between your horns and twist you hear until you hear a pop as his leg is dislocated. For good measure you free your horns before rearing back on your hind legs and headbutting him.
>>319250
You are still on the roof. Everyone else is inside.
He looks surprised and takes a few steps back as you transform.
"What? No, you are all supposed to stay outside the city!"

He dodges the bolt and punches you in the nose.

He shuffles nervously.
"T-this is the Nature Temple. It's late and we're closed right now, so could you come back later?"
>>319264
You lose your shit and start screaming. You can feel it's blood soaking into the fur on your face, back, and sides and can feel some of it's guts hanging off your horns and lying on your back. You feel several ponies jump onto your back but cannot pull yourself together as you hear them draw several blades.
>>319265
It was an extra +1 because omitted for plot reasons
He turns around and bucks you as you leap at him.
"Stupid animal. They're ours, you hear me?"
>>319266
He ducks around behind you and starts pummeling your back with swift blows. The pain is making it hard to stand.
>>319267
"An inn nearby. I'll tell you the directions."
The large bird tells you how to get there as it leads you to the door.
"The innkeeper keeps the door locked at night. You goats are agile though, so you shouldn't have any trouble finding another way in."
>>319269
Your happy little tune pierces the noise of battle coming both from this current conflict and from another part of the second floor.
All your allies feel inspired and have a +1 to their next action.

She leaped to high for you t hit her, and she lands on your back. Fortunatly your thick wool keeps her from hurting you.

You quickly come to the inn. You can hear fighting coming from the second floor and see the silhouettes of figures moving around against curtains drawn across the upstairs windows. You cannot see any windows open on this side of the inn.
>>319284
He is confused by your statement, and that gives you just enough time to go for his throat. Your powerful jaws clamp down on his windpipe, and with a powerful tug you rip his throat out. Not content with that you go in for a second attack and close your jaws around his neck and bite down hard. You can feel his neck snap and his body go limp.
>>319285
You jump onto her back and headbutt one off before she falls. You are at the top of the stairs with a vampire pinned underneath you. He looks weakened by all the fighting.
>>319286
He looks at it blankly.
"I don't know anything about that. If you come back tomorrow I can have someone else look at it. I'm only an initiate, you see."
>>319288
As your lightning strikes him you swear that you can see his skeleton for a few seconds before the now crispy vampire slumps to the ground, dead.

You think better of trying to grab a giant buffalo who is currently falling and grab the vampire instead.
