Battle at River's End

Unread post by DM Mimic »

// This thread will be used to organize player efforts in the coordination of the defense of River's End. This is an IC thread - please keep posts in character.
In lieu of seeking formal military aid, the New Arcane Liberation Front declares that it will stand by its promise to defend River's End. Coordinating with the Church of Mystra and the town council, Sierra the Red and her fellow Liberators issue a call for assistance from heroes and adventurers who represent only their own interests and not those of any regional polities.

Archon Yuri Lichelina would provide Rivers End with supply of Alchemists Fire, Acid Flasks and tanglefoot bags.

Alongside that, Yuri would help coordinate those he spoke to who wishes to aid in Plant Growth to make the area outside the town as inhospitable to an invading army as possible with vines and thorns. Possibly even hiding pits made with Mold Earth.

Yuri would also attempt to acquire caltrops for the war effort.
((I told people who will do plant growth to post here))

Sordoc D'gaffer can be seen co-ordinating with the defenders with to set up many sections of the approaches with thorns and vines with multiple castings of Plant Growth, cultivating the vines and thorns to slow any attackers as directed by the defenders. Often grumbling about the amount of work to re cultivate the land after such growth. He will also try to supply the town with some additional healing herbs gathered from the surrounding forests. He is also likely to be seen turning into a gargoyle to assist with the lifting and digging of trenches, and to weather the occasional stray shot from defenders.
I cannot be lost, because I am here, though I may be geogrpahically misplaced.

Nicho and Rachel will help with supplying town with various healing herbs and herbal remedies, most notably barks and healing-magic infused ointments. Other than that, rangers would provide several bunches of enchanted arrows to local archers
(exact number of healing supplies will be sent to Mimic once we consider that we crafted enough)
