Spoiler: Siegrid (click to show/hide)

Name: Siegrid, the Mercenary
Background: Nothing of interest can be said for Siegrid's origins, his tale is anything but glorious and better left kept to himself with the rest of the horrors that war inflicts on the mind. To him the sword is a means to an end, and he has known nothing else in all his life. He works not to have a vast wealth nor the glory of combat, it is about getting the job done. Finished his contract working for a trade company operating within the Empire, Siegrid set his eyes on the tower as a means of employment.  He'd offer his blade to those also braving the Tower.
Description: Siegrid is a tired looking man, with short black hair and a close shaved beard touched by the greying of age. Possessing a stocky build and broad shoulders,  even in his middle age he looks fit as he did in the service. His eyes are keen even if they look darkened by sleeplessness.

Spoiler: Arek (click to show/hide)

Name - Arek the Butcher

Background - A desperate man with nowhere else to turn. A orphan who never knew his parents, Arek was often discriminated against because of his, ah, unique appearance. He learned at a young age that he could only really rely on one person, himself.

Born with a innate affinity for the Arcane, Arek was quick to pick up magic from observing traveling wizards and whatever he could pick up from what he read in stolen books. The resentment he had of his situation grew, and Arek quickly turned into a mage feared and reviled far and wide for his evil acts, having no qualms with sacrificing citizens for blood magic rituals or bargaining with demons for whatever scraps of power he could get.

Now well into the prime of his life, Incredible magical powers; valuable trinkets, plenty of servants and a town to terrorize for his amusement. Arek was living the life. There was just one problem.

People despised him. Arek was quite literally the stereotypical dark lord. It got to the point where the God’s had blessed a hero with the power to defeat him just to get people to stop whining about him. The hero stormed his castle, massacred the servants, and left Arek for dead.

But Arek had one last trick, he remembered reading about a magical tower others dare enter and figured it would be the perfect hiding place. Just one little problem… he collapsed right after he entered the tower and woke up fully healed with a bad case of Amnesia, forgetting all the spells he had learned.
 

Description - Arek was born mutated, possibly because of his affinity for mana. He would look like any normal human, were it not for the two jagged horns that extended from his skull and sharp red eyes, which had him labeled as a “demonspawn” which wasn’t helped by his strange habits and borderline sociopathic behavior.

Currently covered in a large red cloak inlaid with gold trim, offers him little to no armor but is quite stylish.

Shanks takes a surreptitious glance into the room to the right. The room seems devoid of occupants, and doesn't have any further connections - a dead end. In the center of the room sits an interesting fixture: a statue of Makhios. The tip of the spear he carries in his right hand emits a faint red pulse, while shadowy glyphs dance across the surface of the tablet in his left. The room smells particularly musty, somewhere between a damp basement and an animal's lair.

Enter the room and go for the dagger, picking up the coins one at a time as quietly as possible.

Roll Conviction: 2+3 = 5

Though the bats are seemingly sound asleep, creeping under them is still a nerve-wracking experience. Despite the imminent danger, Isolde remains steadfast and unafraid, guided by her vision to the treasure-laden coffer. Sifting patiently through the coins within, Isolde is able to uncover and extricate the dagger, exactly the same in all regards as it seemed in her mind's eye. Feeling its weight, Isolde is certain that the implement is meant to be thrown. Even to one unfamiliar with the flow of arcana as Isolde, the energy within the stone at the knife's base is clearly unstable and hardly contained.

Throwing Knife (Frost-Imbued, Unstable)

Continue recovering in silence

Spoiler: Meleria (click to show/hide)

Name: Meleria
Background: This teenage Foxkin really has no buisness being in the Tower, though she doesn't see things that way. She sees it as being about what she needs. Either she succeeds here, or she has no future, so she might as well try.

Meleria's a Foxkin, a type of beastkin, and a minority that is commonly viewed as subhuman. Her family worked as peddlers, performing odd jobs from place to place, and living a mostly self-sufficient life. Never staying in one place overlong, so no one place was ever motivated to actively drive them off. Of course, that means when their wagon was attacked on the road, there was nobody to look for them. Nobody to provide the urgent medical aid they needed. Nobody to make sure that when Meleria crept back to the wagon from her hiding spot she'd run too during the attack, she wasn't alone.

lacking the skills to repair her family's wagon, she had to leave both it and her family's remains behind, limiting herself to what she could carry on her back. She found herself in the city of the Tower, and also found herself with a choice. She didn't have the right skills to make a proper living in the city, and to her mind attempting to find someone to take her in would just result in her becoming enslaved. But the Tower represented an option she wouldn't have anywhere else. A risky option for sure, but... What's she got to lose?

Description: This small female Foxkin has tan skin, brown shoulder-length hair, green eyes, and orange-brown furred ears and tail. She has slight build and a nervous but focused demeanor, her eyes and ears flicking about in reaction to slight noises. She has a habit of holding her own tail when anxious, and when resting tends to curl up with it in her arms.

Roll Conviction: 5+1 = 6

Meleria, emboldened by Isolde's success and the implacability of the huddled bats, finds it much easier to catch her breath. Her connection to the arcane current mends itself as her spirits lift, and soon enough, magical potential is coursing through her once again.

Meleria loses 2 Arcana!

Xing Xing will take a Maile Shirt and rest a bit before going back out. A minor debt, easily repaid. Light armor that won't cause issue.

Settling her old tab and paying off a good chunk of her newer debt in the process, Xing Xing walks away with a fine hauberk.

Maille Shirt (light, 0.5 wound reduction)

Heading back up the stairs, Xing Xing is able to retrace her steps and rejoin the group fairly easily. They now wait outside another room filled with giant bats, preparing to face these new foes at the very moment.

(This is where your character’s learned spells are recorded. Spells are like items, in the sense that they cannot be brought in from the outside world. All spells must be learned)

I wait for the others to act.  if they act, I use my equipped staff, trying to conjre some sort of offensive magic

((could I, by any chance, slip my point from skill-at-arms to brawn?))

Growing impatient with the inaction of the others, Mu is the first to stride into the room without making an attempt at stealth, backed up by Siegrid, Vaolu, and Arek, who are ready to engage the bats at a moment's notice. As Mu enters, sure enough, the creatures begin to stir, crimson eyes flicking open and scanning their surroundings. The creatures squeak, click, and screech as they unfurl their leathery wings, and four of them drop down from the ceiling, headed towards the interlopers. It seems as if they are either unaware of Isolde's presence, or simply more focused on the more overt presence of Mu. He is prepared, and takes a swing at the first bat to enter his reach.

Roll Skill-at-arms: 4+2 = 6

A sickening crunch spells the end of the bat, its limp form thudding against the ground after Mu caves its head in. Seems like the straightforward approach was fairly handy.

Perk gained! (Mu)
Implacable - Rolls against fear are not affected by your Wounds value. Additionally, you are immune to fear for the first round of each combat.

Siegrid, too, is prepared to strike, emerging from behind the door as the next bat draws close.

Roll Skill-at-arms: 3+2 = 5

Siegrid finds that bat skulls are, if anything, far easier to crush than most. Despite their size, it turns out that the bats are - individually, at least - fairly fragile creatures. A single blow is more than enough to dispatch another. Two are now dead, another two still incoming, and the last four yet to leave the ceiling.

Arek finds little interesting about the partially-deciphered text: it seems like some sort of memorandum, its significance likely long lost. Turning to the fight at hand, he puts his new charm to use, pulling the last two bats down to the ground.

Roll Focus: 4+3 = 7

The force is more than enough to send the bats slamming down into the ground. It doesn't take a particularly skilled logistician to figure out that the effect seems superb for dealing with flying foes: both bats are either dead or paralyzed after colliding with the stone floor.

Arek gains 0.5 Arcana!

Vaolu, too, prepares to put his magical implement to use.

Roll Focus: 3+3 = 6

Channeling his arcana into his new staff, Vaolu is simultaneously horrified and delighted as one of the bats on the ceiling starts bleeding profusely from its eyes and mouth not a moment later. The blood, instead of falling to the ground, remains suspended in the air, collecting in a globule before being drawn to the tip of the staff, wherein it is seemingly absorbed. Vaolu can feel the energy of the bat's vitae course through the staff and offset some of the Arcana drained by the spell. The bloodless husk of the bat plummets, lifeless, to the ground.

Vaolu gains 0.25 Arcana!

[Egan_BW]

Interesting. I wonder if trying to use the knife will expend it? Maybe better to keep a hold of it for now.
Wait quietly for the last bats to fly down and attack the others. If one survives, kick it in the back.

[Lenglon]

(I don't rest a bit? Would rather not have to pay for medicine or healing cause I got hurt.)

((*raises eyebrow* - did you get wounds or arcana that you are trying to rest to recover?

Not sure if you noticed, the Curative Charm that Arek has trades gaining 1 full arcana to heal 0.25 wounds. This restricted-to-casters-who-can't-have-almost-any-other-perks-beyond-casting-and-requires-a-magic-item-even-for-them healing method heals you at a 4-to-1 exchange rate, meaning arcana is far, far less valuable than wounds are. next notice how much Arcana Meleria is recovering by resting. A conviction roll of 6 recovered 2, and a conviction roll of 3 recovered 0.5, and these are from spending the entire turn resting. So even the "cheap" currency (Arcana) is quite expensive to recover. combine these clues and it makes sense that wounds don't heal on turn-based timescales. probably you could heal if you rested for days instead of turns, but I bet that turn-based-rests aren't going to heal wounds, simply from the context clues.

so since your momentary rest wasn't going to have any effect, it was probably just not mentioned as it's an unimportant side-action instead of an actual turn-action and the DM didn't want you to lose a turn for nothing. So if anything you should probably be glad that the "stand around and do nothing" part of you action was skipped.

I could be wrong of course, I'm not Rethi, but I hope you understand why I seriously doubt that your rest partial-action was capable of accomplishing anything.))

[Egan_BW]

(I believe the main use of the curative charm is to get past the whole number breakpoint so that you can heal the rest naturally. Like if you're at 1.7 wounds, you can rest to heal up to 1 wound, use the charm, then keep resting to get to 0 wounds. Also the charm is probably just a low level and weak spell at this point in the game.
Though you're certainly not going to get any healing done without posting you sheet, tric.)

I think they've got this, but I need to show that I'm not useless!
