Barth hesitated at Gird’s decision. Up until this point he had been merely working alongside the three worshipers of Duvelna, two of them out of convenience and Nyma because they had been traveling together since they both woke up, but if he decided to follow them towards this new threat he would be actively heeding the word of Duvelna. The flip side of course was that if he did not he would be on his own, with the sun beginning to make it’s descent. He did not fear the night, he believed firmly in his luck, but it was the prospect of losing the companionship of the three that made the choice difficult.
While he had not yet made up his mind he began following the trio. It kept him from falling behind in case he did choose to stay with them. It also had the additional benefit of letting him focus on his thoughts, so long as he kept his eyes on the backs of the others.
Eventually he reached a conclusion and nearly walked right into Nyma as she was busy stringing up the male spider. Even though he had no intention of changing his original stance, that being his choice to not worship the Goddess of Death, there was no harm in joining up with his compatriots for one last adventure. They had already managed to slay two spiders and he had managed to peak the interest of a god of his own and while some would be ready to call it good and head home he was more than willing to roll the dice for the chance of even greater rewards.
With Nyma finishing the task she had set herself to and making her own choice to follow after the pale Hobgoblin, Barth turned to Luz. ”You guy’s aren’t getting rid of me quite yet. If you don’t mind I am going to stick by you for now since you can keep track of their aura’s.”
He would wait for Luz to begin tailing Nyma and Gird before setting off with her, trailing a few steps behind and doing his best to creep through the area quietly.
EXP:
Inventory: -Wooden walking stick/staff (in Cave) -Rudimentary Spear -Alpha Rabbit Horn on a Vine -Devils Advocate- A pair of dice gifted to Barth by the God of Chance. He has yet to roll them so he isn’t positive of their effects yet. Rolling a 1 causes a negative effect, rolling a 4 increases XP gain. They are currently held in a silk sack.
Acquired Skills: -Knowledge Of The 3: Knowing the names of the god and goddesses of the world they live in they can now properly worship them.
***God of light Ramos he is the god of light and he gives us the very sun we see during the day he is purity itself and as such is mostly worshiped by most creatures in one form or another.
***Duvelna she is the goddess of death and night. She is death itself and must be respected if not feared.
***Shirila the goddess of the earth as she is the embodiment of the earth and life itself, she is also known as the eternal mother.
-Fairy Knowledge: Now knows of the fairies (and nymphs) that inhabit the forest around him
-Silk Spinning: He is now able to create silk from his fingertips. Eventually he will be able to use this ability to create traps and snares with ease, but for the time being he has very little control over the gift. It is more akin to spray and pray, severely lacking in finesse.
-Barbed Webbing: After the death of the mother spider Barth’s webs gained a new property. Barbs, or sharp needles, now reside within the webbing increasing the effectiveness of capturing larger prey as well as increasing damage done to enemies with the webs.
Titles:
Blessings: -Devils Luck: He is lucky to be alive, and it shows in how well he takes chances. (Passive effect)
Curses:
XP: 1x Male Spider (9xp), 1x Female Spider (36xp 9 times 4 due to Devils Advocate. Total: 45xp
I am really torn right now. On the one hand I feel like this would be the perfect time to separate Barth from the rest of the group, which I have been planning to do for a while, but on the other I like Gird, Luz, and Nyma. And it seems like @Jangel13 is trying to group everyone back together.
@Jangel13 Yo before you post do you think I should edit mine to include a dice roll to try and improve search chances? Didn't even think about it till like 45 minutes ago haha
