Adventures of Camembert du Brie

[Xen]

Nice work out there. [img]smile.gif[/img] I hope you will survive long enough to fight Johnny boy.

[Dace De'Briago]

I like the greater deathblow/arrow of explosions technique.

Very nice.

The way out

Camembert was stopped on his way to Adalon. The Githyanki were still pissed about their sword:
http://img139.exs.cx/img139/4311/under518oq.jpg

Camembert wasn't really impressed:
http://img139.exs.cx/img139/3575/under529xt.jpg

Adalon was relieved to get her eggs back and helped Camembert get to the surface:
http://img139.exs.cx/img139/9311/under538yx.jpg
http://img139.exs.cx/img139/6528/under545dq.jpg

Camembert still had to fight through the last defenders of the Underdark:
http://img139.exs.cx/img139/9181/under556nn.jpg
http://img139.exs.cx/img139/8187/under565uw.jpg

When he finally got out he was summoned to meet Elhan who helped with special supplies to fight Bodhi and her minions. She stole their relic and they looked for help everywhere:
http://img139.exs.cx/img139/3103/under573hn.jpg

Camembert met Drizzt but was confident that he could handle Bodhi alone:
http://img139.exs.cx/img139/6094/under584ih.jpg

But as soon as he got to Athkatla Githyanki appeared again. This time only one stood there:
http://img139.exs.cx/img139/8323/under597ar.jpg

When Camembert refused to return the silver blade a group of Githyanki teleported around him. It was a tough battle:
http://img139.exs.cx/img139/2703/athkatla59fj.jpg

It ended good for Camembert though:
http://img139.exs.cx/img139/4075/athkatla60jc.jpg

Camembert had so many new items that he rushed to Cromwell's place to see if there was anything special that could be done with them. Oh, YEAH - Ring & Staff of Elemental mastery, Celestial Fury +5, Fulcrum, Tower of Iron Will, Upgraded Daystar, Quietus, Boots of Hornet, ...

I've done that myself (Slayer as "decoy" to attract as many of them as possible, then Korgan firing the lethal warhead-arrow), but personally, I want to see what happens when an Assassin->Fighter combines Poison Weapon with an Arrow of Detonation. That's gotta be something to see.

The BIG red

Camembert still had to finish Lord Firkraag's quest. But when he ventured to Windspear Hills he was attacked by a group of Ogres and Wyverns:
http://img134.exs.cx/img134/8650/firky13fm.jpg

Suddenly he realized that their bodies were human! Garren saw everything and invited Camembert to his house so that they could search for a solution. But even there they weren't safe:
http://img140.exs.cx/img140/4449/firky27dd.jpg

They kidnapped Garren's child and Camembert was determined to rescue her. He had to fight several enemies on his way to the castle and so he experimented with his new forged weapons. This time he used Quietus in off-hand and Fulcrum in on-hand for his record backstab!
http://img140.exs.cx/img140/2720/firky37pe.jpg
(This one is for Xen! )

He was ambushed again in the castle:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/9926/firky40vq.jpg

Uhh, what's this? Undead's secret meeting?
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/5057/firky53ph.jpg

Wanna see some sun? Yeah, didn't think so:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/5568/firky69fv.jpg

And the same treatment for Shadows and Wraiths:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/7408/firky78er.jpg

Hi, who are you?
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/5827/firky88ty.jpg

You lying b..ch:
http://img144.exs.cx/img144/447/firky97gs.jpg

No one betrays Camembert:
http://img144.exs.cx/img144/7742/firky103kt.jpg

They were looking for treasure and a lot genies were protecting it:
http://img144.exs.cx/img144/8223/firky117po.jpg

BIG golem, luckily he cannot reach Camembert:
http://img144.exs.cx/img144/4862/firky121yp.jpg

There might be a fight coming in front of this cage:
http://img144.exs.cx/img144/7766/firky133zz.jpg

WOW, Firkraag is a red dragon! Camembert better prepare for this fight:
http://img144.exs.cx/img144/9310/firky148fp.jpg
[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] http://img144.exs.cx/img144/9128/firky155jb.jpg

Hey, Firkraag woke up on the first (white) spell! He is really watching us:
http://img144.exs.cx/img144/4635/firky160ta.jpg

Au, he is a strong lizard! The dragon breath cannot hurt Camembert since he wears the [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Cheesy cloak:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/8374/firky175ih.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] It was time for Wagi to step in! Firkraag can't do anything in Time stop:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/9743/firky182lk.jpg

He is still breathing, well try this then:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/6154/firky199qa.jpg

AT LAST! The big red falls down with a thump and Camembert has found another legendary weapon - The Holy Avenger!
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/5152/firky204wo.jpg

The Hammer and THE STAFF of cheese

Camembert found a strange sewer key in Firky's castle so went to check what was all this about. He cautiosly explored the area and was soon attacked. This time he used his Upgraded Celestial Fury for a devastating blow:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/4685/athkatla85xr.jpg

Mind Flyers are now piece of cake:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/3725/athkatla98aq.jpg

There was another Mind Flayer ambush but was dismissed with one Greater Deathblow. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Camembert wisely prepared for his retreat if it would be necessary:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/6058/athkatla101xw.jpg

Again a group of Mind Flayers and again they are on the receiving end:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/988/athkatla116fi.jpg

Who is this?
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/7153/athkatla128kp.jpg

Oh, yeah, just another trophy:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/2310/athkatla137sv.jpg

Camembert got himself a nice hammer and he ran to Cromwell's to make a really STRONG one! And while he enjoyed swinging with it he had one more place to visit:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/9413/athkatla140dp.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] He and Wagi are preparing for a heavy fight and they want to start with an advantage:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/448/athkatla159br.jpg
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/8994/athkatla160gr.jpg

Aha, another lich! He was immediately destroyed with traps:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/4071/athkatla173dj.jpg

And a nasty group of his followers! Camembert was holding his Shield of Balduran and waiting for Wagi to finish one of the most dangerous creatures in this fight:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/2738/athkatla184jz.jpg

Ouch, Hardiness saves the day:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/8484/athkatla199gj.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Aaah, healing with Rod of Resurrection feels better:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/8589/athkatla204ok.jpg

These Rune Assassins were a priority because od their wicked backstab:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/474/athkatla212qr.jpg

And now taking care of the rest:
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/6121/athkatla227lj.jpg

Wohoo, this lady has been using the cheesiest weapon around! Unlimited invisibilites per round, yihaa! This is a dream come true for a true cheesemeister :
http://img154.exs.cx/img154/833/athkatla231oa.jpg

Bodhi's demise

Having defeated all the foes in Athkatla there was only one encounter left - Bodhi. Camembert returned to his guild, instructed his thieves and had a good rest. Then he checked all the equipment and went to the Graveyard. She was already expecting him:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/7316/bodhi18dn.jpg

She then ran to her hideout and left four vampires to fight. They met the sharp edge of Azuredge and Camembert continued the cleansing of her lair:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/423/bodhi28zt.jpg
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/6844/bodhi34vv.jpg

After killing horde of vampires the way down was finally open:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/9045/bodhi45nw.jpg

But no, there were still annoying Vampiric Mists hiting their heads against Azuredge:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/6663/bodhi57gd.jpg

Bodhi prepared some traps for the unexperienced adventurers. Camembert was not one of them:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/8541/bodhi67qt.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] His preparations include: Potion of Storm Giant Strength, Potion of Magic Protection (50% MR), Potion of Invulnerability, Oil of Speed, one charge from Greenstone amulet and summoning Wagi who the used two scrolls of Prot. from Cold on Camembert and on himself. And he prepared various weapons needed for this fight:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/6149/bodhi77hg.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Oh, yeah, don't forget Spell Trap, available from cheesy staff:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/2871/bodhi84qd.jpg

Then he and Wagi trapped the room and summoned animals to distract Bodhi:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/3572/bodhi92kd.jpg

Blah, blah, blah ... Come and catch me if you can:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/1957/bodhi104iz.jpg

The Gnolls served their cause - the annoying Cloud of Bats is no longer a threat:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/3280/bodhi115te.jpg

Heh, this is what happens if you don't look where you step :
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/5738/bodhi124qs.jpg

Wagi attacks with his Time stop tactic but is unsummoned during attack:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/7396/bodhi131jl.jpg

Camembert is now alone and quickly summons some help:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/719/bodhi148uo.jpg

He then uses Carsomyr to dispel her cold shield causing damamge on every hit:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/2029/bodhi157ab.jpg

Just a little time for one trap before Bodhi follows him:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/7209/bodhi167tc.jpg

Here she is and fighting her mano-a-womano is not a good idea:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/3479/bodhi174df.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] The cheesy rod works wonders:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/2934/bodhi182rd.jpg

Let's prepare better this time:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/4342/bodhi196eh.jpg

YES! What? NOOOO! One moment she is dead and the next she is fully healed? Hey, that's my trick! I see - you fight cheese with cheese:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/7158/bodhi205hs.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Here's some Rocquefort for you, cold b..ch:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/7994/bodhi219qd.jpg

Hey, what's up? You're out of cheese?
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/2168/bodhi226of.jpg

Can't do it more times like I do, ha?
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/5954/bodhi235wc.jpg

Two of her faithful vampire-mages tried something:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/2410/bodhi245zx.jpg
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/5758/bodhi256dh.jpg

And failed:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/4402/bodhi261eu.jpg

And the final stroke to her heart finished this hunt :
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/6528/bodhi271vg.jpg

[Xen]

Hahaha, some fo the comments ("Hey what's up? You're out of cheese?) made me laugh. So only Johnny boy to kill now. [img]smile.gif[/img] Go Camembert go! [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

[Leslie]

The Cyric encounter

Camember was tired after such a long fight. He decided it's better to rest in this eerie place than go out and risk a difficult fight without his abilities and summons. Then he left the bloody place in the middle of the night:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/9804/cyric18ww.jpg

And how right he was :
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/9108/cyric23wv.jpg

This was a group of professionals and they couldn't be tricked. They were prepared and he was not. The roles have changed:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/963/cyric34ma.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] PUF! And they were gone! So you want to play hide and seek? And test the cheesemeister and his magnificent equipment? Puf - using SoTM Camember was gone too. But Venduris was not a rookie. He is a master at detecting illusions:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/5461/cyric40xj.jpg

And he is an expert assassin with a lethal backstab:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/9908/cyric52xb.jpg

Time to call for Wagi's help:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/6105/cyric62fn.jpg

Venduris is just unbeleviable! Hurry, Wagi, hurry:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/3832/cyric75ii.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Finally! Wagi starts to kick butt:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/5058/cyric80jn.jpg

Whew! The most dangerous foe is gone:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/6375/cyric97vc.jpg

And one of his companions too:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/299/cyric106nc.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Ouch! Let's see if you can do anything about this cheese:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/5642/cyric119nw.jpg

No way could Selina survive double Camembert cheeseburger:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/7813/cyric122dg.jpg

Wow! Don't relax yet! They are still VERY dangerous. If this Maze would have targeted Camembert it would be the end. And Kerith has a nasty spell ready - Harm:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/3900/cyric133cf.jpg

Double cheeseburger attack again:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/2931/cyric147os.jpg

AND again! Zaeron Tane casts from a scroll so he can't be interupted! VERY clever! Luckily again Wagi is trageted and not Camembert:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/9539/cyric153zx.jpg

There is no holding back anymore! Using all his knowledge and tricks to get alive out of this fight:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/4636/cyric163sr.jpg

Hopefully this was the last one:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/5792/cyric171bw.jpg

Yep. Detect Illusion doesn't show anything. But the area is still heavily trapped! How can Camembert get out of here?
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/6158/cyric180db.jpg

Aha! He found a special scroll on Venduris' body:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/5668/cyric193kx.jpg

Cool, it works:
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/9100/cyric203hh.jpg

Camembert searched their bodies and they had many special items. They must have traveled a lot around and won many battles to have these "cheesy" things. Here are a couple that look very very useful [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] :
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/5973/cyric218ui.jpg
http://img137.exs.cx/img137/8121/cyric221ko.jpg

[Xen]

Uuuh, I like the items. [img]smile.gif[/img]
