[QUOTE="Cultsbane, post: 9009263, member: 7037457"] Campaign time: 3 hours, 05 minutes, 35 seconds The hydra looks more like a bunch of giant fingers with snake-like heads on the end. A weird hydra. (After reading so much Else Ring lore lately the fingers made me laugh) Kelik is familiar enough with the hydra to know that it is actually a screaming malice that preys on the emotions as well as the flesh of enemies. His heads can break apart from the body attacking people as little snakes before reassembling themselves. It is known to leave after eating 80-100 people which would take out at least a quarter of the train, sometimes it goes for more or less depending on how much resistance The guards are screaming orders at each other, saying that they need to calm everyone down because leaving the train is even worse. That they will defend them and get our pay The James Boone fellow uncuffs his suitcase and places it down out of sight before disappearing suddenly The orc family ends up going to their cabin room and locking themselves up. Bergeron gets told to do the same by Victoria as he isn't capable of fighting On his way he is thinking of someone who was possibly on the train that isn't now (hmm could it be the gunslinger?) He disguises himself as the Tiefling. Mr. Boone is back! Joe follows the guards and tries to look for the hobo as well. He finds it weird how oddly calm Molly is throughout all of this Ennis is going to run on top of the train from the caboose. She notices the first head has smashed into the cargo area and cultist are pouring in Ennis gets a nat 1 on the dex check to run across the caboose. Everyone notices that the Royal Ennis slips right off the train, one of the heads of the hydra looks in the direction of Ennis and licks his lip. Celeste ends up getting grabbed by the screaming malice to save her getting a nat 1 (just going to call it a hydra) and tossed her very far away into a nearby island. It'll be some considerable time until she's able to come back Victoria follows Bre down. Bre has her gun out saying that I am here only to protect the royal family, that Victoria can go up front and hopefully help drive the screaming malice away. The screaming malice lunges straight at Ennis. Its long head smashes into Ennis, as she takes 10 piercing damage. The head turns into a snake egg and out comes two snake demon abominations Bergeron now as Mr. Boone grabs his carbine and runs towards the front of the train. He catches up to around car 16 stopping short of the guards. Victoria looks absolutely horrified that the gunslinger is back because she already killed him earlier. Ennis puts out a wave of gravity at the snake demon creatures, it does some damage, but they're not stopped. Ennis now gets hit by two attacks even with using silvery barbs getting bitten in the shoulders for 25 slashing damage. Ennis is at 6 damage Joe casts a chaos bolt from the window at one of the creatures attacking Ennis. He manages to land a hit, doing 19 psychic damage.

We have a few people that we want to investigate when we get to the Drakr capital. Eleanor leaving her cabin invites everyone to the Great coliseum of Drakr as we see the beginning sprawl of the most polluted poorly designed city in the world.
