crew belong to the esteemed J. K. Rowling not me.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> I ain’t making any money so don’t bother
suing.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Harry’s sitting at the table of #12.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> As he looks to his side, he finds Albus
sitting there. Turning back to face
forward, Harry finds Tom and Peter sitting across from him.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> A chair scuffles at the head of the table;
Harry turns to find Cornelius just sitting down.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>“Ah,” Cornelius says, “I’m glad everyone could make it.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> Does everyone remember where we were at when
we broke up last time?”
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>There are nod all around the table.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>“Very well, let’s begin the battle then.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> Everyone please roll initiative.”
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>To Harry’s surprise, he feels something hard in his hand.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> He shakes his hand a little before he tosses
it on the table. He sees that it’s a
die, only it has more thane 6 sides.
Harry’s die comes up a 17.
Everyone around the table, except Cornelius emulates Harry’s
action. Tom rolls a 16, Peter a 12 and
Albus comes up with a 2.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>“Ok Harry, you go first, what do you want to do?”
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Harry says, “I’ll cast the Darkness Destroyer spell against
Voldemort.”
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>“Ouch, triple damage versus evil creatures, good choice.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> Well, roll your attack.”
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Harry picks up his die and rolls.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> Everyone has their eyes glued to the small
piece of bouncing plastic. Finally the
die comes to a rest, the number 20 is showing.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Cornelius says, “Ouch good roll Harry, a threat.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> Roll again to see if you managed a critical.”
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Taking the die in hand, once more, Harry cast his fate
again. The die bounces for almost a
minute before coming up a 20 again.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>“Ouch indeed. Complete
critical, max damage applied directly to the Hit Points.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> Tome make a
Fortitude roll, difficulty 30.”
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Tom swallows hard as he picks up his die and casts his fortune.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>The die hits the table and bounces once, twice, thrice, before
coming to a rest. The die is showing a
one.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Tom looks at the die for a moment, “DAMN IT ALL TO HELL!”
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Cornelius, “Ouch, sorry Tom.
Peter, action passes to you.”
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Peter focuses for a moment, “I’ll use the Killing Curse against
Potter.”
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>“Okay, make your attack please.”
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Peter picks up his die and makes his roll.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> There are groans around the table as the die
comes up a one.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Cornelius says, “Looks like fate is being a bitch to the forces
of evil tonight. Roll again to see how
bad it is.”
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Nary a breath is drawn as Peter picks
up his die and rolls his fate. Even
Albus takes a moment to swear as the die comes up a one again.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>“Well, it would seem fate wants Evil well and truly fucked
tonight, so here we go.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>“Harry cast the Darkness Destroy spell and Voldemort vanishes in
a flash of light, leaving only a small pile of robes.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> In a fit of grief, Wormtail cries out ‘Avada Kedavra’
and points his wand at his own head before dropping to the ground, lifeless.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Well boys, I guess that does it for this campaign.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> Tom, Peter we’ll have to get together and
create some new characters for you. For
now though, break out the refreshments.”
So saying, he reaches into his robe and pulls
out a small plastic baggie that he tosses onto the table.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>From his robe, Tom pulls out a small metal pipe, about three
inches long.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Peter reaches into his rob and pulls out a bottle of Fire
Whiskey.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Albus waves his hand and the table is covered in finger foods.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Tom reaches for the baggie as Harry goes over to the cupboard
and gets a large bottle of soda and five glasses before returning to his seat.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Harry takes the Fire whiskey and pours a measure into each of
the glasses while Tom pulls a small pair of scissors from his robes before he
pulls out a clump of green bud from the baggie.
He then uses the scissors to help break the clump up into a small pile.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Meanwhile, Harry has finished pouring the proper amount of
liquor into the glasses, he opens the soda and adds a
good portion to the mix. He pulls out
his wand and casts 5 gentle stirring charms.
Finally the glasses get passed out.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Cornelius raises his glass, “Boys, here’s
to a good campaign and a good fight.”
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Everyone raises his glass and takes a small sip.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Harry marvels at the sweet, sharp taste of the drink.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Albus says, “Perfectly mixed, as always my boy.”
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>By this point, Tom has a decent sized pile in front of him, so
he lays the scissors down and puts the rest of the clump backing into the
baggie. Finally, long limber fingers
puck up and pack the pipe. Tom presses
the pipe to his thin lips and casts a flame charm into the bowl.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> Tome takes a long drag before passing the
pipe to Harry. Tom holds the hit for a
moment before releasing it. Harry’s just
raising the pipe to his lips when Tom says, “Hey Harry.”style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> The two lock eyes, “No hard feeling ok?”
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Harry nods his head as he presses the pipe to his lips.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>Harry sits up in his bed at #12.
He looks around the room with a perplexed expression.
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\"Courier New\"\'>“Ok, that was one strange dream.”
