What's next?

Elemental encounter

  • Niery attacks, elemental attacks!

With daggers in hand, she leaps to the last location of the elemental and plunges the knives through the air.. Nothing.. of course, you can't hit thin air. Immediately she feels a gust of wind pushes her back, the wind continues to blow making it impossible to fire arrows, but not entirely impossible to walk. The elemental shifts into a fiery form, taking a semi-humanoid shape. This seems to be somewhat physical.. she might be able to hit it now!

[6 dmg] Her blades slash through the fiery shape, momentarily separating the fiery mass before it closes up again, the elemental bursts out like a fireball where and the mass solidifies to earth.

[6 & 6 - armour {4} = 4 damage]
Her armour mostly absorbs the flames but she does catch fire, she quickly taps it out as she feels a singe of heat. Now that it's taken a solid shape she knows her best chance of hitting it is now before it shits into whatever comes next.

[7+3 x2! lethal] She feels her blades have immense impact and can see the earthy mass starting to collapse into a pile of dirt. After a brief moment however it suddenly starts taking shape again, this isn't over yet.. *Elemental used it's special ability!

Suddenly the earth trembles beneath her feet while the earth elemental becomes water.
[Dex save DC 14 < 18+*3] But Neiry manages to keep standing allowing her to make another attack.
[7+4]. She can see part of the watery mess form a puddle beneath her feet and knows she's dealt a good hit.

The elemental (6/17) becomes a title wave that attempts to swallow Neiry but she manages to split it in half, the water crashing around and behind her before regaining the shape of the orb she'd seen before, electricity sparking from it. [16>6]

Niery feels like attacking it now would be a bad idea as her knives would form a conductor for the electricity. Instead, she takes a swig from her minor health potion
[+5] and regains full health 6/6.

The electric shocks kick up a notch before a lighting strike surges towards her. She nearly drops her weapons but her muscles spasm and grip her daggers tighter. This caused her to lose all the health she'd just recovered! [2x2 (wields metal)]

The elemental shifts into air again and Neiry knows she has to buy herself time, taking another swig of her potion. [+4] Getting back to full health 6/6.

The wind picks up again as the fire form emerges.
She makes two more slashes hoping to finish it off.
[2+6] LETHAL

The first knife only forms a visible scratch in the flames, but the second seems to split it in half, the elemental form collapses and becomes nothingness.

+50xp

  • lvl up!+

+1 armour | +2 hp | +1 Sta | +1 Dex | +1 Con | +1 Cha

After a brief search, the room appears empty aside from 2 doors, the one she entered and another across.

She opens the door and sees yet another smaller hall. It ends in another fork in the road but she can hear some humming to her left, towards her right she can see a door.
