Gear
Spells: Blind(sand whirlwind),   Armour(ceramic Plates): Armor creates a field of magical protection around a character, or an actual shell of some sort, effectively giving the target Armor. Success grants the recipient 2 points of Armor. A raise grants 4 points of Armor.   Endure Elements(dust body suit/mask) 2pp per hour on raise 1pp per hour,   Bolt(rock/ceramic shard): Bolt is a standard attack power of wizards, and can also be used for ray guns, bursts of energy, streaks of holy light, and other ranged attacks. The damage of the bolt is 2d6. Additional Bolts: The character may cast up to 3 bolts by spending a like amount of Power Points. This must be decided before the power is cast. The bolts may be spread among targets as the character chooses.   Blast(shredding grit): The area of effect is a Medium Burst Template (found at our website). If the roll is failed, the blast deviates as a launched projectile. Targets within the blast suffer 2d6 damage. Unlike other attacks, raises on the attack roll do not add to damage to area effect attacks.

For triple the points, it does both.   Puppet(sand pours into their body and controls their body)   imbue: 2pp for 3 rounds, 1pp per round to extend +2 any checks for gemcrafted items or machinery +4 with raise, range touch.   Gear: Longbow, Carapace Armour +3 (torso, arms, legs) Toughness.   Fancy bow: https://www.worldanvil.com/w/aerth-meatball3712/a/strandavaar-prototype-mechanical-bow-mkii-item

Arrival at Reapstone

by James Swenson

Arriving at dusk. Tyranous came upon us again still enraged and walking wounded. We returned his weapons to his unhappy disgruntlement. I slept for the three hours I could, looking out as the misty landscape whipped past. It slowly became more green but only unpleasant looking vegetation. Thorny briarpatch tried to block the trains path but the train cared not as it continued on. We stopped at a stone platform covered in 5 year old detritus from the last escape of reapstones people. It looked like there had been violence on strong metal doors closing some of the buildings.
 
We found an old bank building and a barricaded old brick building that was barricaded on the outside to keep something in. The building was for children a learnign center matthew told me. We got over a wall on the back of it and entered the building to see what it was that the creatures wanted to contain inside of it. Inside we found classrooms for farming techniques...and creepy children that seem to have turned feral. They don't act like the other cursed but are still dangerous. We tried to track some down and it seemed they are in all the walls and ceilings. We fought some and fled the scene chased by one ofhe large onesm scrambling over the wall with one of the young ones unconcious and in tow. We will need to work out what we want to do with it before long.

Preparing for Adventure and Horatio Tells Lies

Last night is still so surreal to me. Did I really see that strange man, that sand and the endless crashing waves? I must have, also I am still unsure what to think of his implication I am some sort of hybrid akin to that beast we put down in the dark dep...

The Train Ride and Harvest

Today we took the train to Harvest. Met some interesting folks on the train. Isaac is an interesting fellow, seems very learned and a bit shy to have any physical violence, even if it would be the quickest way to resolve something. Miles was an halfling w...
