Inside Bernie's cottage...

Samuel attempts to question the people around him where Bernie might be! He goes to Alaric first!

[Nonverbal communication roll: 4-1]

He gestures wildly! Alaric shrugs! Okay then, next person! He questions the beautiful man!

[Beautiful man endurance roll: 3]

He seems to be too busy being unconscious and shivering! Well then, that just leaves Bernie's sister!

[Sis endurance roll: 3]

She sits up from her prone position and spits out a tooth!

"I'm going to burn this carpet. It and every single one of its kind."

[Nonverbal communication roll: 6-1]

Samuel forms the letters B-E-R-N-I-E with his hands!

"He's... I'm not sure, really. Mausoleum, I think."

[Sis memory roll: 6]

"Oh crap, that guy's bleeding to death! I gotta save him!"

[Search roll: 1]

She leaps to her feet quickly! Too quickly, because she immediately drops to her knees again!

"Oh gods, I think I've broken something. Hurts like hell. Hey, minion guy."

She points at Samuel!

"Help the bleeding guy with his wound, will you? Stop him from bleeding quite as much, please."

[Sis medicine roll: 1]

"I should be okay, really..."

She stands up! There is a loud crack from her leg and she drops again!

"Yep, it's definitely broken now. Good doctoring there. Nice work, me."


In a filing room inside the Artifact Vault...

Vincent skims the catalog for any artifacts of awesome power!

[Skimming roll: 2]

Let's see, Chalice of Infinite Spirits, Chalice of Infinite Wool, Chalice of Infinite Wood, Chalice of Infinite Clothing, Chalice of Infinite Swamp Water, Chalice of Infinite Ravenous Squirrels...

They sure do love their chalices, it seems.

Samuel will magically stabilize the man! Not HEAL, just...Stabilize. To temporarily keep him alive?

Inside the lair of the incapacitated sister of Bernie...

Samuel tries to magically stop the horrid bleeding of the poor fellow with the perforated shoulder!

[Magic roll: 6-3]

The bleeding on the guy lessens considerably, though not entirely. He's definitely not gushing blood anymore, though! Samuel feels pretty good that he has done something right at least!

[Beautiful man endurance roll: 4+1]

Yep, looks like he's going to be staying alive for a while yet. The wound on his shoulder looks quite good now, actually. It might even heal rather nicely! And he's still unconscious! What luck!

Samuel feels all nice and warm inside. Finally he doesn't end up summoning a Demon of Pain or something of that sort.

[Sis endurance roll: 1]

Bernie's sister tries to move again, if only a little bit! There is yet another small crack!

"OH GOOD GODS THAT HURTS! SOMEBODY HELP ME OUT HERE!"

She once again looks at Samuel!

"Mind putting me in my bed? It's getting kind of uncomfortable on the floor!"

Sam will do so, and carry her to the bed.

+1 Agility, don't fail me now...

Inside the cottage of Bernie and his sister...

Samuel goes to pick up Bernie's sister!

[Strength roll: 6-1]

He gently lifts her from the floor and stumbles over to the bed! At this point, he tries to deposit her safely and painlessly on the mattress!

[Agility roll: 2]

Samuel unsteadily wavers for a second!

[Agility roll: 3]

However, he does place her in the bed, even though the method of conveyance leaves something to desire, making Bernie's sister wince in pain!

"Ow, damn it! Be careful! I'm pretty sure I've already broken the thing in two places, no need to add more injuries!"

Samuel stands silently for a bit. If he had a face, general irritation and an inexorable need to take a nap could have been read from it!

[Sis medicine roll: 1]

"Let's see, if I remember this right..."

She attempts to twist her leg into its proper position! However, she gets the direction wrong and twists it horribly painfully!

[Sis endurance roll: 4]

She yells in pain, but stays completely conscious!

"OH SH-gods, oh gods, I really shouldn't try this on my own. Help me out here, uh, buddy?"

Samuel will shudder, and try to help her...

This isn't going to go well, is it?

Inside the cottage of Bernie and his sister...

Samuel shudders for a moment. He's hung over, irritable and currently quite imprecise - exactly the kind of doctor nobody would want. However, he must do this. Such was the command of Bernie's sister!

[Medicine roll: 4-1]

He manages to twist the leg back into a halfway manageable position!

[Sis endurance roll: 4]

Bernie's sister clenches her teeth and closes her eyes! This obviously hurts her quite a bit.

"Now... now... now set the bone in the correct place... please..."

[Medicine roll: 4-1]

Samuel manages to fit two bits of broken bone back together. It's almost enough to make him sweat!

[Sis endurance roll: 5]

Sis seems to be holding up just fine!

"Now get the other bit... careful..."

[Medicine roll: 4-1]

With shaking skeletal hands Samuel manages to set the final broken bits of bone back where they're supposed to be!

[Sis endurance roll: 3]

Sis does seem to be in quite a bit of pain, though.

"Now... be a peach and get me... gah... some kind of splint, please?"

Inside the catalog room of the Artifact Vault...

Vincent tries to find some kind of Chalice of Infinite Bones!

[Luck roll: 4]

There is one! Hooray! Apparently it can create an infinite amount of bones, exactly as it says in the name! What kind of bones, it does not say!

Inside a treasure trove of knowledge...

Vincent looks up the listed location of the Chalice of Infinite Bones!

[Luck roll: 4]

It seems that it isn't actually in the vault! It has been moved to one of the experimental areas! Experimental Area the First, it seems.

Take the catalog book and search for any mention of a "Chalice of Infinite Blood".

Inside the cottage of Bernie and his sister...

Samuel tries to conjure up some canes!

[Magic roll: 3-1]

It doesn't work! Dang. Again!

[Magic roll: 6-1]

Oh yeah, that's the way it's done! Samuel conjures up enough canes for all splinting needs! In fact, he might even be able to make a cane cast out of these! Now to find something to affix them with!

[Search roll: 3-1]

Samuel can't find anything in the cottage! Oh drat.


Inside the catalog room of the Artifact Vault...

Vincent tries to find the entry for a Chalice of Infinite Blood in the catalog!

[Search roll: 2]

Doesn't seem to be any mention in any of the many files in the catalog. Must be because it isn't actually in the vault employees' possesion.
