Offizier Alex<br>> Maxmillian, Lord George Bryon, and Aldrich von Bertholt confronted the<br>> great beast.<br>> <br>> Many blows were felled upon it, but its capacity to absorb damage seemed<br>> overwhelming. Lady Drachenheim fired two pistols, Offizer Maxmillian, and<br>> Bryon fought with great valour, all taking wounds. Aldrich von Bertholt<br>> also fought, but was struck down by the beast and Dr. Serijo intervened,<br>> dragging the unconscious body away but the beast persisted* and bit<br>> Aldrich in twain. So expended the life-force of the popular and charming<br>> Aldrich von Bertholt, whose local reputation will bring sadness, and<br>> perhaps even a significant loss of income to some local women of<br>> negotiatable affection.<br>> <br>> The situation appeared most dire, but in a flash of inspiration, Lady<br>> Drachenheim did taunt the drachen to chase her. Intervening at the<br>> entrance of the chamber, Offizer Maxmillian displayed great loyalty<br>> preventing the beast from giving chase. No less than five times it did<br>> strike him, and though he reeled greatly from the wounds, he did not fall.<br>> Eventually however it pushed past him and gave chase against Lady<br>> Drachenheim, even passing Dr. Serijo on the way.<br>> <br>> This would prove to be its downfall, as the beast did not know of the many<br>> traps that the party had carefully bypassed. It was struck by the mighty<br>> pendulum blade, it suffered poisoned darts on the ancestor's tiles, it<br>> became confused at the heart chamber (although it almost caught the lady,<br>> if it were not for Lord Bryon's timely intervention), and at the sleeping<br>> guard, it fell into the pit and impaled itself on the spikes below. There<br>> it was slain. One can only wonder what chaos it could have caused if it<br>> had escaped into the streets of Freiburg.<br>> <br>> It is indeed a bittersweet victory. Whilst the party has accumulated<br>> sufficient wealth from the Drachenheim treasures to pay for a new home<br>> (six times over if need be), they have the sadness of having to explain to<br>> Aldrich von Bertholt's family was has happened. They have discovered the<br>> most extraordinary collection of dracheneisen ever known, something that<br>> could make them all princes by right, if only there was a united Eisen and<br>> an Imperator to legitimise their claim. They have seen and defeated a<br>> drachen, albeit a small one, the first seen in over two hundred years, but<br>> who can they possibly tell? Indeed, after such an experience many members<br>> of the party are thinking it is time to make a will in case another<br>> misfortune like this befalls them.<br>> <br>> * A very unluck die roll; a 1/10 chance it was going to take that course<br>> of action.<br>> <br>> -- <br>> Lev Lafayette, BA (Hons), GradCertTerAdEd (Murdoch), GradCertPM, MBA (Tech<br>> Mngmnt) (Chifley)<br>> mobile: 0432 255 208<br>> RFC 1855 Netiquette Guidelines<br>> http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1855.txt<br>> http://www.quicksales.com.au/shop/RPG-Review.aspx<br>> <br>> <br>> _______________________________________________<br>> 7thseafreiburg mailing list<br>> 7thseafreiburg@rpgreview.net<br>> http://mail.rpgreview.net/mailman/listinfo/7thseafreiburg_rpgreview.net<br></div> </div></body>
