Cordell speaks to us in her cabin and tells us that we can’t afford to lose more supplies and if we lose them then the supply line of the Impure would only strengthen. This force is but the vanguard of a massive impure force.
Some of us use some straps to upgrade their weapons and we use 5 scrap to create some whistlers.
The current plan is to use Ki’s patron to create an illusion of a small army to draw away the crows and once separated from the Choir, we jump it. If this isn’t possible, I will draw the crows away myself with whistlers and the thermite bombs.
Charon and Bloom have a conversation, she says that she is horribly ill with the corruption and Bloom tries to remove the corruption with his zero power. A tattoo appears on his forehead, Charon’s form flickers as the corruption is removed in black wispy smoke.
Kiolos, Damon, Deer, Thomas, Andreas go to the Rat Races.
The spymaster puts all the spys on finding recover and is able to get +1 recovery. His intel question is about the rank and file of Amis’s creatures. The Bloated are puffy, plague filled creatures which upon death spread Amis’s corruption further. The rotten and the zombies are his main troops.
The quartermaster brings us gray oil, and both thermite charges. Charon carries one and Damon the other.
The Commander spends 5 intel: One approach is to draw the Choir out, the second is to lead the crows away. A challenge we might face is the one of drawing the crows away and keeping them away, as well as the Choirs song. The main weakness of the impure’s position is that the choir keeps to the rear by themselves mainly. Dionysia is currently working on spells that affect not only the ring itself but also the weather patterns. There is currently no news about Althara’s as the impure begin combing the land trying to find her. The impure are pulling back from a position north east from here, they are going after our supplies because they need them, not all of these crows are fighting at full power.
Marshall rolls 9d6 and we get two sixes. So we start at an excellent position. I create the illusory army and deer sends swarms of animals to help with it and draw away the crows. Z say’s they will require aid later for such a big request.
We encounter the Choir, 25ft. Tall, a mass of heads arms and flesh. The power of amis comes to life from within the choir. The area writhes and becomes unstable as his attention is shifted to us.
The Choir does a blizzard of blades to attack me and Andreas doing 96 damage with 8 successes. It tossed Andreas up onto a peak 30 ft up, and then did a poison breath attack. It also has a song aura that if you fail will give you either +1 corruption or tired 1. Rinse and repeat throughout the combat.
Deer ends up getting 10 corruption and is now a member of the impure. Thankfully bloom is able to knock him out before he is able to do too much damage.
The corrupted world is also fighting us. Mainly burying us in the ground or tossing us with vines.
Andreas deals the final blow into the energy core of the Choir, it explodes in a blast of corruption. Andreas unlocks his Torvian! It’s called the Cyfan armor!
We got +1 Intel, -3 time, +2 moral, -3 pressure.
