Rythos nodded to Kronal, he understood that the white mage had a plan, and he was prepared to support it in any way needed of him. Channeling the bonds to yet another forest, he smiled as his three remaining Elvish allies stood, ready to die at his command if necessary.
Name: Rythos
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Height: 6’7”
Weight: 342 lbs
Appearance: Rythos has muscles in places most people don’t even have places. His dark hair is long and unkempt. His deep blue eyes seem to hold secrets few can fathom. He wears crude clothes made of the skin of a Craw Wurm. He also carries a crude dagger made from the bone of the same Wurm. He accented his armor with other bits of the bone, and his satchel is made from the stomach of the great beast.
The titan surges forward intent on harming Kronal, two more corpses seem to fall from his gut once again with his movement. The other two zombies sludge forward, each attacking one of the other mages.
1x Grave Titan (6/6 attacking Kronal)
2x black Zombie tokens (2/2 SS)
2x black Zombie tokens (2/2 1 each attacking Thelas and Rythos)
Kronal smirked confidently and nodded to his knight and lupine summons and ordered the youthful charger to confront the hulking giant... alone. The wolf intercepted the zombie heading for the blue wizard.
Kronal raised his right arm, forcing two of the shimmering white orbs to the point of his dagger as he charged at the giant. The listlessly luminescent ball of grey power zipped towards the giant and formed a mire that caused the monstrosity to stumble before continuing towards Kronal and the knight.
The knight slashed quickly at his foe before the giant's upraised fists could fall on him, but it wasn't enough to halt the creature. He fell wordlessly, and Kronal's mouth formed an 'O' of frustration. Kronal's own knife was already moving, too slow, towards the great enemy. It pierced the brute's gut and as Kronal wrenched it out of its innards, the giant toppled over backwards into the quicksand.
Several meters away, Kronal's wolf was also enervated by Kronal's casting and easily felled its own rival, spitting out the guts it had ripped through with its razor-sharp canines.
OOC: @Thelas and @Bassplayer: I got this Can one of you deal with the other Zombie, though?
Board State:
Actions (in order):
Sacrificing 1x Quicksand targeting the Giant

Thelas, if you would kindly unsummon the two with summoning sickness, we can end this now
Rythos pointed at an elf, then to the Zombie staggering towards him. As the lone elf marched calmly to face his foe, Rythos drew upon the power of the forests. As the elf grew to over double his normal size, Rythos watched as the Zombie was easily dispatched...

OOC: Oops! I meant to put that I gave it +3/+3 but made it a 3/3 instead...good catch. It's been fixed. Now we just have to see if our blue mage will unsummon the last two tokens and end this thing...

OOC: Sure, I can do that. Hopefully we'll get to rest soon, though, that's three Unsummons gone and I'm not looking forward to the next encounter at this rate.
With more resources to work with, it's much easier for Thelas to send away the zombies this time, as long as nothing goes wrong.
1) Unsummon targeting token 1
2) Unsummon targeting token 2
Stack resolves from higher numbers to lower numbers, other players have priority.
Two of the stunned zombies quickly slammed back into the titan as it plowed into the young knight standing in it's path. The titan's own black blade cut into the knight as the titan seemed to sink into the marsh it's powers being drained. Still as Kronal moved to finish the titan it lashed out in a trade of blows injuring Kronal's stomach. As Rythos' elf and Kronal's wolf obliterated the remaining zombies, Kronal noticed that his young knight seemed to decay rapidly as some sort of disease consumed the knight's flesh from where it had been struck by the titan.
Looking down at his own wound Kronal noticed a black grime slowly growing from the wound he suffered at the hand of the titan. Oddly Kronal could feel the pain flaring from the wound like a distant pulse, one that was currently being countered by his ties to white mana.
Kronal suffers from an infection after taking four points of damage. Currently his max life total sits at 16 until he treats the wound, which is recommended.
OOC: Wait, what? o_O My liver! And now I only haz one kidney...
On topic, how do I treat wounds? Is their stuff in the standard kit, or do I get to do white magic-y stuff?
Also, on another note, will our characters' spells recover to their full amount after this battle?
IC: Kronal gave a muted gasp of pain, concentrating and sending his orbs of white mana zipping into his wound to hold the shadow at bay. He almost cursed, but instead gripped the hilt of his dagger hard enough to turn his chocolate brown skin almost white. With his other hand, he held his stomach inside his body, unsure of what to do. He glanced mutely at the green mage, hoping that perhaps the marosorceror was equipped to deal with such an aberrational disease.

Microsoft's latest update for Gleemax was buggy, and resulted in multicolor in every block since Lorwyn.
OOC: I have no idea how to address this situation myself...as I do not know whether the infection needs to be cleansed by a lifegain type spell, or if it would involve other medical supplies or some such...or if we even have enough knowledge to tread said infection since we are on a new continent and have no real knowledge of the creatures or their toxins, what bacteria they carry, etc...though that may be more of a blue mage's department to have that kind of knowledge...so, for now I will go with this.
IC: Rythos looked to Kronal, then to Thelas. He motioned for Thelas to come over. "You are the one with most knowledge. How this should be treated?" he grunted in his crude English.

Once again the group heard a rustling. This time the source was clear as seen by the shadowed figure of a humanoid staying out of the light sticking to the comfort of shade. The newcomer was clearly observing the group but made no effort to approach or hide himself. He seemed content to simply observe...
OOC: Murphy, the giant couldn't have dealt me 4 damage... it got -1/-2 from the Quicksand, and my knight was a 3/2 due to the Glorious Charge. Thus, the Giant had only 5 points of damage to assign, and if the knight died, it must have dealt at least 2 to it, leaving at most 3 damage to stick in Kronal's gut.

OOC: Due to the giant having deathtouch, it need only assign 1 point of damage to kill the knight. So you did take the 4...i don't understand the infection though...it doesn't have infect though i figure it is unrelated to the actual card

No, Lord is correct here. I forgot to factor in the -1 to it's power. So raise Kronal's health by one and that's his max for now. Small mistake on my part when I was doing the updates. Pointing these out to me is just fine, I'll make the occasional mistake from time to time usually because of a simple oversight on my part.
Normal wounds and infections could be handled in the 'standard' adventure kit over a period of rest. I'm treating this as a special case though since it's the first encounter with the mechanic. It's not going to be permanent, your character will simply have to learn more about what caused this infection to be prepared for any future encounters.
So back to the quest! A shadowy figure has his eyes on you!
OOC: Are you sure? 6/6 gets -1/-2 making it 5/4...first strike knight deals 3 leaving it at 1...giant assigns 1 point of damage with deathtouch to the knight killing the knight...kronal takes remaining 4. If the Titan didn't have Deathtouch then Lo13 would be right but it should be 4.
Rythos noticed the being in the shadows and watched but didn't make any attempt to communicate or approach.

And bassplayer, you're right. Sorry, Murphy - I didn't take the Giant's deathtouch into account in my calculations.
IC: Kronal winced and straightened his back, removing his bloody hand from his belly, relying on the power of white mana to keep the corrosion in check. He glanced at the shadowed skulker but made no attempt to communicate.

The shadowy figure moves along the shade of the tree line, edging closer to their boats. The figure seemed to be trying to get a better look at their boat. The crew with the mages looked concerned at the figure's actions. One of the men whispered, "First undead giants and now skulking figures eying our boats... I don't like this... Not one bit..."
My bad on the last update. If Thelas does not post soon then he will be worked out of the quest.
Because players are treated differently in combat from creatures I am requiring that creatures assign lethal combat damage to creatures before any damage can be assigned to players. Deathtouch does throw a small wrench into that scheme. For now treat this situation as a creature that was not player controlled not being efficient in combat. IE the Knight absorbed the two points of damage.
Rythos watched the wolf trotting over to the mysterious stalker they seemed to have picked up. However, he still made no move to communicate, feeling that to be better handled by someone other than him...he was mostly hired muscle on this trip anyway.
OOC: The blue mage seems to have abandoned us....

The shadowy figure seemed to float back away from the wolf deeper into the marshy tree line before quickly vanishing from sight. The wolf neared the spot where the figure had last been and became confused as it tried to pick up the sent of the visitor. The wolf appeared incapable of finding any scent besides that of the dead.
Then off to there left, closer to the boats this time, the figure reappeared. And again the figure kept it's distance. A sense of wariness seemed to emanate from the being, possibly due to a creature having been sent to approach it...
Sent a final warning for Thelas. If I don't see a response soon then he will be dropped from the quest.
Rythos looked over at the mysterious being, and then quietly answered Kronal. "Seem like wolf intimidate stranger. Perhaps you make contact. If trouble, Rythos step in, but Rythos large man. Intimidating as well." he grunted quietly.
