John Green

John Greene (a.k.a. The Choose One)

John Green was once a devout follower of Kymnarkmar, who lived with Kymnarkmar in the prison, Celestia. Upon his death John Green's body was preserved via the Dragonwright Rituals of Mummification, awaiting its day of reactivation. Kymarkmar used the mummified remains of his most devout followers in this fashion, as vessels for the consciousness of people he removes from Timelocks, paradox's and other Impossibilities supposedly linked to the Old Ones.
Kymnarkmar has not been known to show direct action in this way in over 10000 years and for him to make his presence known now means there is probably the direct threat of Old One or Alien Intelligence invasion somewhere near by.

The Elf Mystic Kash Communed with Kymnarkmar from the outside world and was taught the secrets of Dragonwright Rituals. Kash was then lead to the entrance to Celestia on Rifts earth and used the secrets he learned to gain entrance. While adventuring in the Celestia dungeon the Elf found some of the mummies left by Kymarkmar's long dead followers, and managed to complete the Dragonwright Rituals to bind the Timelocked conciousnesses of Drago, Sparticus, and Caldor into the bodies of a Human Wizard, a Human Monk, and a Lizardman Ranger.

This Human Wizard body is the one Drago now wears.

-=-=-=-=-

Caldor and the rest of the group hide out in his office after the heat was on at Johns gardening job following the multiple murder of 3 boys outside by one party member, and a smg firing in the office by a second, now petrified party member.

The office has many earthquakes and one applicant orc, glorg. Glorg polishes hughbot before Caldor sends him to investigate the crashing noises by going into the tunnels in back of the office which lead deeper. After a short while they hear the screams of agony of the orc from inside the cave, then nothing.

At this point Plasma is sent by Denali to locate the group. He finds the office and walks in, trying to steal a ledger on the desk which is used to requisition goods for the office. He fails his pick pocket roll and caldor seems to ignore it, pretending to want to give plasma a job out of kindness.

Then caldor takes back the stolen ledger from Plasma and he demands that Plasma go find out what ate his first employee the orc.

Plasma sneaks down and finds another lower chamber with orc parts, a table and some eggs. He takes one of the eggs and decides against going into the hole in this room, instead climbing back up with the egg. Plasma then shows the party the egg, someone John identifies it as a blow worm egg. Then plasma gets sent to the main office of the sanitation department by Caldor to get help. He brings back 4 canisters of nerve gass anti blow worm agent.

The party decides to toss one of the canisters down the hole. Then John creates a stone plug with create stone.

when it looks like something is about to break through the plug, John casts ice wall on it. Then there is a huge gush of wind and a small hole blows through the wall, carrying with it the gas. The party saves vs the wave of their own gass and sees a beastial man riding a blow worm.

Blow worm aka Sand Worm, This one was Rifted in from the desert world of Arrakis to serve the mysterious shifter.


The man also summons some fire worms which engage in battle with Max, Bluey, and Plasma. Bluey put up protection from fire and was save from some fireballs. MAx's armor took some burn damage as did Plasma. Plasma do many bursts from his tk rifle driving away some of the smaller worms. Max saw the man start casting magics against them all and aimed his last rocket at the enemy mage. the rocket struck true and the mage was blown off into the horizon to his (assumed?) death. The blow worm continued to rampage.

John failed a dodge roll against a full body slam once the worm ate Bluey. Luckily Johns invincible armor spell held, though he was driven through a hole in the pavement into the sewers. John shot the beast from below with his flame thrower

There is a heated battle and Bluey is consumed by the blowworm alive, inside his T40 environmental body armor, which starts to rot from the digestive juices. While bluey frantically tries to cut his way out, the other party members battle the magic using man on top of the worm.

Finally the surviving PCs are met by bewildered Dweomerites. Max has saved a woman and child from firm worms who thank him and then leave in terror. A few fire fighters show up and put out the blaze. Plasma meets a kid named 5I who trades him some dataspikes which help with computer hacking for a 70k piece of data Plasma hacked out earlier. A poor bunch of kids start to follow Max and Sparticus after offered a place in the Army of Thunder.

Denali then tells the group to come to the embassy. There they hear that she doesn't know what the three are up to, they have disappeared. There are rumors of a coalition army from the west headed east towards Dweomer. Denali wants Plasma to hack into the Robot Island techies and find out what they know about the army and rumors the three have left the city. She says perhaps the true federation can exploit this weakness and if her master is to make plans like it they need more information. Plasma manages to hack a few things including the supposed location of the mayors house containing the prison.




While slowly traveling they find a Beast Dragon in the way, which they avoid.

Then they meet Two Elves on an Elephant. The Elves are Kale and One and claim to be a couple here form Thai places.

Kale suggests going astral, which John and he do as a miracle... flying in and rescuing Sparticus by destroying the magic colars enslaving him and the other 3, one girl, one demon, and esrith. Sparticus superTKs the four out of the top tower of the Mayor's house and they meet up with the rest of the party before fleeing towards the City of Brass with the rescued Federation of Magic councilman Cracius.

Sparticus

The Group then meets Renalds Rotary Club, 3 buses for hire lead by Renald. Sparticus tells him he can live if his buses swear to The Army Of Thunder and give his 20 child followers passage. Renald reluctantly agrees and the party takes one bus, the kids take a 2nd bus, and renald and his group and some kids take a third bus.


After many more miles a strange deity known as Balphegor blocks their path. It claims in exchange for sacraficing one of their party it will give great treasure from the chest it stands on. A strange humanoid male with a secondary demonic likeness... John doesn't waste any time after it demands the recently rescued coalition-connected girl. He petrifies the demon and they continue on into The City Of Brass.


Current location: Somewhere between Ohio and Kentucky, deep in the magic zone
