"Apologizes for my delay, very busy weekend., In addition even if I passed my tumble I realized the Half orc would have attack of opp on me for attacking with range in melee."

Rohan was unsure of what was about to happen, seeing the Large Orc fall just before Liesel appeared to be getting ready to fall, the question was whether or not Nyym could handle the Half Orc on his own. Even though he was right next to the Half Orc, he fired off another blast to attempt to strike him and aid in Nyym next round of strikes.

Onslaught Blast: 1d20 + 7 - 6 ⇒ (12) + 7 - 6 = 13

After the ribbons of sand attempted to lash out at the Half Orc Rohan Quickly tumbled down the hall to the Aid of Liesel, rising just about at her though unable to arrive to catch her until moments later, which may be to late.

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 11 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 11 - 2 = 10 -2 Wounded, at least its a skill check not an attack

Liesel-Marie is turning as the man-giant comes her way. In a guttural voice, almost like the fallen orc's, she growls, "Do not abandon your tribemate, warrior. Aid him."

Even as she speaks, she is shrugging out of her pack. [b]"Healing. I must continue the battle." Flavor, but it is clear she is going for another potion in the moments she has remaining.

Rohan struck out with his sand-ribbon, lashing at the half-orc's feet before quickly making his way down the the side-passage to help Liesel-Marie. And though he drew the attention of the two-weapon wielding half-orc, the tall human was seen as nothing more than an attempt to distract him from the true threat in his mind, the strange half-drow and his lightning blade.

End of Round 6. Make your declarations for Round 7. Liesel-Marie is currently at -1 hit points, which puts her at both the Critical threshold (which gives her a –3 penalty on all attack rolls, saving throws, skill checks, and ability checks, as well as to AC), and Disabled. This means she may take a single move action or standard action each round (but not both, nor can she take full-round actions, but she can still take swift, immediate, and free actions). Liesel-Marie can move at half speed. Taking move actions doesn’t risk further injury, but performing any standard action (or any other action that I, as DM, deem strenuous) deals 1 point of damage after the completion of the act. She only starts dying once she reaches -2 hit points.

Rohan still has 8 hit points left, leaving him at the Wounded threshold with a –2 penalty on all attack rolls, saving throws, skill checks, ability checks, and AC. He's on his way to assist Liesel-Marie. At 10 hp, Nyym is also at the Wounded threshold with a –2 penalty on all attack rolls, saving throws, skill checks, ability checks, and AC. He's still facing off against the half-orc.

The half-orc, sensing that his situation had taken a turn for the worse, dropped both of his swords and fell to his knees, his hands interlocked behind his head. No point fighting, he said, staring up at Nyym as he spoke for the first time. I know when I'm beat.

What does Nyym do?

Rohan arrives to the aid of Liesel, aiding in her search and consumption of her potion of healing. He stood there concerned not just of her but of his companion about to fall, his sense of over protection kicking in moments before it took its toll.

"I have not abandon my companion, only to aid in another to return to battle."

Of course, Rohan didn't know immediately that the half orc surrendered, though he may have missed the sound of the swords clashing against the ground when the Half Orc dropped them. But he wanted to make sure that all his allies were able to stand and fight.

Nyym keeps his hard up as the Half-Orc surrendered..

Rohan see to Liesil-Marie. This fight is won.

Then to the half orc.

How many others are down here?

As Nyym asked his question, he used his left foot to slide the swords away from his captive, keeping his weight on his right and ready to move should the situation change.

You should kill him now.

No thee is no honor on killing an unarmed for that has surrendered. We need any information he may be able to provide

In the dimness of the room Nyym remain cool and in control. But within his mind it was like his different ancestry had developed minds of their own and was competing for control.

And with Nyym's acceptance of the half-orc's surrender, the combat comes to an official close. Good job, Team. Everyone gets to perform their Final Fantasy Victory Dance! Y'all receive 450 XP, plus an extra 150 for excellent role-playing, putting your current experience point total at 3,605. This gives y'all more than enough experience to hit tier three of 2nd level.

The half-orc gave a shrug. As far as I know, there's no else here. Though I'm pretty sure the enforcers from Freedom Town have probably paid that slut Brinya a visit.

Tier 3?, Wait did I miss a tier in there somewhere. Hmm I remember Gaining +1 on BAB, never got the Level 1/2 HP, or Saves. So in that case I can add 1/2 HP and saves for 3rd level. SO close to 3rd level, I can feel it. This -4 to combat attacks is really really kicking my A** (Waiting on Liesel to drink her potion before my next action as I was helping her)

Liesel-Marie's hands are unsteady and the axe falls from nerveless fingers as she fumbles with the pack. It is only with Rohan's aid that she is able to retrieve the potion in time. In fact, he has to pour the elixir down her throat as her body's rage fails and she slumps against him, suddenly unconscious despite her willpower to aid the men. She doesn't even know the fight has been won.

One more round of rage and one move equivalent action = not enough actions before she drops. Thanks to Rohan for saving our girl. Question for the GM: Does she drop six hit points when she drops out of her rage or are those gained from rage considered temporary hit points and simply lost first?

@Rohan: Yes. The fight with the giant Belkzen redback put you guys at 2,670 with only 80 XP needed to attain the first tier of level 2. The fight with the ROUS put you at 3,005 XP, which put you over the 2,750 needed for tier 2. The fight you just finished netted you 600 XP to put you at 3,605 and over what you needed for tier 3, which was 3,500. Though I did forget to give you the 150 XP for disarming the interlinked bear traps, so your total experience should be 3,755. That will put the group 495 XP from hitting tier 4, which is at 4,250 XP.

@Liesel-Marie: The temporary hit points are lost first, which is why the unchained versions of rage and bloodrage are superior; the hit point loss that comes from a +4 to Constitution when core rage ends have a tendency to kill lower level barbarians and bloodragers.

If you take the time to loot the bodies and search the survivor, this is what you'll find (I'm going ahead and identifying the magic items that are present so you can take advantage and use or claim what you may need): potion of barkskin +1, potion of cure moderate wounds, potion of enlarge person (CL 3rd), mwk hide armor (needs repair), mwk falchion, gold necklace (worth 100 gp), pouch containing 125 gp, potion of cure light wounds, potions of pass without trace (2), potion of vanish, smoke pellet, tangleburn bag, studded leather, heavy wrist launcher w/9 bolts, kunai, mwk two-bladed sword (that can break down into two short swords), belt of tumbling, crowbar, thieves' tools, key, garnet (worth 50 gp), 30 gp, oil of magic fang (CL 1); Other Gear mwk steel lamellar, neck pouch containing unworked amber (worth 50 gp [100 if fully worked]), tigereye (worth 9 gp), unworked pyrite (worth 4 gp [8 if finished]), turquoise (worth 10 gp)

Thats the confusion, we did hit tier 2, there no such thing as tier 4, it only goes up 3 times before you level. Perhaps I am totally wrong but I doubled check, we should only have 2 adjustments not 3, because at 4250 we will get our 3rd adjustment. At 5k exp we will be at level 3, YAY

Rohan gently lays Liesel down on the ground, he looks back checking over his shoulder, as he pours the CLW down her throat to keep her from total collapse. Checking for danger in the room, while the big guy was down there could be further danger.

Perception: 1d20 + 0 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 0 - 2 = 7

Of course he was so distracted with the saving grace of keeping Liesel alive, that he couldn't even tell if Nyym was walking up behind him. He called out to Nyym in the mist of his actions.

"Nyym, its Liesel she has fallen I believe I have revived her, but she is very weak. If you have the other one under control bring him in here so we are together."

Rohan looked down at Liesel, who looked so innocent when she could barely move her weakened body from the exhausting of the mighty victory she had won against the powerful Orc.

"Liesel, are you ok? Can you hear me, you won, we have won for now. Come pick yourself up, we need you..."

Rohan was calm and talking as though he had found some sort of peace in the midst of combat, which he felt was a great thing, but the overprotective nature had him wanting to aid Liesel. Looking down the hall he could see Nyym standing there doing something, but couldn't make out the Half orc who was still behind the corner of the wall.

Dibs on belt of tumbling LOL, no really (going to be loosing my skill focus soon so need to acquire more balance to get my tumbling back to par.)

Rohan set Liesel down, searching through the Large Orc bag, finding a potion of Cure Moderate With a Bigger plus then the Small Cure light potion. Rohan smiled, and then assisted Liesel to down yet another potion, he wanted his group member to be strong once more.

Liesel hope you don't mind me rolling HP for the potion on you. Potion of Cure Moderate: 2d8 + 3 ⇒ (8, 6) + 3 = 17

I don't mind at all. The first potion would have brought her to zero, the second would bring her to 17 (of course) and reaching third tier would put her current hit point total to 21. Nice roll.

The girl sits where Rohan had let her to the ground, catching her breath and wondering about the voices she had heard during her rage. Feeling much stronger yet still weary, she stands and moves over to the fallen orc. "I don't know your name or your cause, but you fought with honor. Your strength a.makes me stronger." She reaches down and eases the expression on his face, closing his eyes, and arranging the body in a more natural position than the awkward state death had granted him.

Looking up at Rohan, she simply says "Thank you," before a look of concern crosses her face. "You are hurt! And you gave me your potion!" Looking through her pack, she realizes that she has consumed all of her potions, but she has those from the attackers upstairs. She offers one to each of the men when she realizes they are both wounded.

There are 4 tiers... the experience is divided by 4, and tier 4 is the next level. But I did mistakenly call "tier 1" tier 2. Even though I had the experience points right, I miscalled the tiers on the chart. So, just to officially call it: you guys are at tier 2, not tier 3. But I am going to give you an extra 375 in experience for helping me get things back on track with the tiers. Your official total for XP should now be 4,130 exactly as a result, putting y'all only 120 from hitting tier 3.

And if LM wants Grache to look more natural, she might want to put the severed portion closer to the rest of his body. Just saying. ;)

Nyym steps back so his prisoner could stand.

Up, move into the chamber where my companions are.

Nyym waits for the half orc to stand the let's him lead the way into the center chamber. Nyym follows close behind ready to counter any move the prisoner might try to make.

Apon entering the chamber and seeing Liesil-Marie sitting on the floor recovering and her opponent dead before her.

It is good to see you up and recovering Liesil-Marie. You fought well. Rohan it pleases me that I was able to come to your aid in time. Our friend here is a worthy opponent. But as soon as we are able we need to move. He claims no others are about down here. But he says more assassin are to pay a calling to Brinnia with intent to harm her. While I have faith that Kyt can handle herself, we must turn over our prisoner for interrogation and possibly aid the other ladies.

Still keeping close eye on his charge, Nyym takes the opportunity to drink a clw of his own now that he was no longer alone with the half orc.

clw: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

After taking the potion, Nyym addresses his prisoner.

What name are you known by?

Keeping track of as much group treasure as I can so we can divide it up after we get through this mess, minus what we use, IE potions. I remember something Nyym found, but I don't know if he was adding it to group loot or tucking it away for him, so that stuff he found upstairs is not recorded, just the gold bracelet worth 500gp. Plus the Iomedia sword. Though I assume we are all sharing in the carrying of the loot. @Liesel yeah that potion of CMW was a great roll, your welcome.

Rohan looks at the potion as Liesel hands it to him and Nyym, giving a nod in return. His only response nearly shy in comparison, but stands up in tries to not to show it. Brushing his rear off from the (Dusty) Floor after he had sat in it.

"Yes I have taking a few hits, but if we do not aid one another we would fall just as this orc and Half-orc have done."

Rohan gives a glare back at the Half Orc who left a decent wound across his chest, which vanishes soon after taking the potion of cure light wounds.

CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8 Good Roll

Rohan listens to Nyym as he informs us of his news from the Scum Half Orc. Considering the thoughts of further exploration to assure the place is truly empty, he decides against it after taking such harsh blows. Feeling a little underpowered and weakened to Nyym comment about him needing aid, but shrugs it off as he mentions that the Half Orc was a worthy opponent. Knowing full well that Half Orc shouldn't of been so hard to defeat.

"Half Orc, punnie Half orc, a hard opponent, I would of showed him"

Rohan Snares at the half orc yet again, rather annoyed how he was nearly defeated by a Half orc scum. A moment of flash back seems to overwhelm Rohan mind, as he stares off into a daze for a second or two as he remembers the raggedy old man cutting him down and licking his face. Snapping out of it he continues the conversation with Nyym.

"Agreed, Brinnia is in danger we need to make haste and leave here now to both turn this scum over to the authorities and to give word about the threat. Wait!!! Wasn't Kytyanna with Brinnia? She may also be in immediate trouble. We must hurry. I am good to move on."

Rohans face turns to concern as the immediate threat became more real and ky was not equipped to fight off several attackers at once. He motions towards the exit, and starts to walk in the way almost intently slow to see if the group was ready to go, though regardless not going more then 10ft from Nyym or Liesel.

What name are you known by?

Daktani. Or Dak. Either one works for me, Nyym. And before you ask, yes, I know who you are. He looked from the half-drow to Liesel-Marie and Rohan as he continued speaking. I know who all of you are. Including the elf woman as well. The four of you put on quite the show last night during the hopeknife ceremony. Daktani then turned back to regard Nyym with a sly grin. I especially loved the part where you cheated by dropping your elbows below the knees during the tug-of-war.

Hopefully, Kytynna's player will have received my message and took a look at the thread. In the mean time, I'm reposting where we last left off with her so that she can pick up from that point.

Meanwhile, in the time it took the others to reach their destination, Kyt had navigated the streets of Trunau, passed through both inner gates (with only the slightest bit of hassle from the soldiers posted there, who had become enamored of her due to her performance in the bale-toss at the Hopeknife Festival), and, after stopping to get directions from passersby, arrived at the boarding house just northwest of the Commons. As the elf approached, she could see a funerary spray of roses, lilies from Tian Xia, chrysanthemums and mini carnations, all white in color, were artfully arranged amongst emerald palm fronds and lush greens on the door. Upon entering, the caretaker, not even looking up from his cleaning, barked out the number to Brinya's room.

Shaking her head, Kytynna continued on to the room and, upon arriving, knocked on the door. Go away, came a grief-stricken voice from within, one that the elf immediately recognized as belonging to Brinya.

Daktani continued, I guess you're wondering what's going on, right? Well, it's simple really: Trunau's days are numbered. The town and everyone in it will become food for the crows. Or sold as slaves. Whatever the general decides to with any survivors, you can bet it won't be pretty. But before that can happen, the town's defenses needed to be weakened. That's why we're here. Things were going well. But then, Rodrick Grath started snooping around, so Skreed said he had to go. Couldn't take the chance that we would be found out. The half-orc shrugged nonchalantly. Hopefully once we sack this place, that tomb will become easier to find.

Rohan looks and listens to the conversation from Daktani and Nyym nearly being one sided as the Half-orc explains with Nyym's quiet threatening pose, as silence sometimes is overpowering and often more effective than words, though Rohan knew that Nyym would soon share words with the criminal.

As the Half-Orc spoke, he only spilled the truth as it felt fairly legitimate that he would fear for his life since he gave up with such ease. Rohan stepped Closer to the Half-orc and looked down on him in rather angered face and balled his fist, the anger in him was raging on inside but he attempted to control his emotions and spoke and very deep subtle voice.

"Slaves or death you speak of, you underestimate the strength of the city. Who is your General, is it this criminal Skreed you speak of?

Rohan face bold-ins as he closes in nearly 3 feet from Daktani face.

"And how do you know of us, perhaps only hearing the names from the hopeknife ceremony!

Nyym listened intently as Daktoni went on with his sudden desire to tell all will icy calmness. When Rohan stepped forward to confront him, Nyym listened till the last question when it suddenly clicked.

He was there, as was several others. The group I followed last night spoke of others that had not checked in yet. It would seem that they used the Ceremony and festivities as thier their chance to infiltrate the town. If that is the case and what he speaks is true. Then that means as we stand here now, others are already carrying out thier tasks. That would also mean something bigger is about to happen. We must return immediately. The council can decide his fate apon our return.

Nyym steps forward and binds Daks hands with the rope he procured from the tower. Once done Nyym checks to see that the others are ready to go.

No. Between searching the bodies, gathering up what was found on them, and talking with Daktani, I'd say more than a minute has gone by. Also, I'm going to say that you would have searched the room as well (consider it my reward for the week of patience you all demonstrated) and would have broken into the chest:

1 ounce of sovereign glue, 2 doses of universal solvent, 50 feet of silk rope, a disguise kit (with 6 uses remaining), a set of thieves’ tools, a noble’s outfit worth 75 gp, a signet ring worth 50 gp, and coins totaling 237 gp, 155 sp, and 55 cp

Yes there is a tarp handy... I'm assuming you're bringing back Grache and the troll's head along with Dak as further proof of what you found.

Daktani did not so much as flinch when he was bound by the half-drow. When Nyym was done, the half-orc spoke once more. Don't you want to know about the prisoner that's down here? Or are ya in too big of a hurry to find out?

Liesel-Marie lops off the head of the rager Grache and retrieves that of the troll from where it rolled, sets them together in the tarp and rolls them together before looking up. "You play games. This is my tribe. They have shown me kindness and healing when I knew not my own name. Yes, I am in a hurry to let them know the threat. And yes, I want to know about the prisoner. And any other secrets you play games with."

She stands, crossing her arms before her. "You have my attention if you wish to speak."

Daktani went to raise his hands, but then realized he couldn't. I'm not playing any games here. I want to live. Plain and simple. Can't do that if I'm taken back as a prisoner to Halgra, or worse, Jagrin. You give me your word that I can go free, I'll tell you what I know.

She makes a show of checking the edge on her axe. "They might not be your only concerns. But assuming you have nothing to fear from the one that just killed a troll and defeated Grache, where would you go? Back to the bosom of those that hired you?"

Like I'd be stupid enough to do that. What you're talkin' about would be counterproductive to my 'wantin' to live'. I know what they're capable of doin' to me, believe me. I'd rather not experience it if I can help it. Just like I don't want to be handed over to the Council. You give me your word. All of you. At this Daktani turned to regard both Rohan and Nyym. You do that, I'll spill what I know and tell you where the prisoner is down here. We got a deal?

Rohan relaxed his posture as the other spoke to the Half-Orc, though as soon as he spoke of the prisoners that were down here and the pure evil that he spits from his tongue just got under Rohan skin like no other. His fist quickly bald up tightly and without hesitation he threw a single punch at the bound Half-Orc Jaw with him being so helpless. The anger built up in him and was unleashed.

Unarmed Punch to Dak Jaw: 1d20 + 2 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 2 + 4 = 20 "Non-lethal punch, he is helpless so +4 to the attack, and he should have a Dex of 0(-5) I hope."

"How dare you think we would let you go for committing such crimes against our Tribe, our family. You will be brought before Jagrin to serve you justice for your crimes. You will tell us now, where the prisoners are or I will take your head myself.

While Rohan was really good nature in his heart, doing things in the light of good, he felt that the criminal was not worth the lives of his people and the only way he could protect them is by getting justice for the acts the Half-Orc has done. If doing so was to beat him to death, one life would not be worth the entire towns life and Rohan would not let that stand.

Liesel-Marie put an arm out, but too slowly. "Rohan! Control yourself! I'm the hothead around here - we don't need two!"

She turns to the prisoner, "Here I thought you needed to worry about me. Reaching the council might be a worthy goal. I think they have magic to make your corpse talk if I lose my temper. What's the nature of your prisoner? Someone from Trunau?"

She is not angry with Rohan, quite the opposite. She is trying to convey to the half-orc that this negotiation can go three ways, not two. She could take his head just as easily as letting him free, but right now he has her attention and she is seriously considering his proposal. She is also giving her friends time to think about it.

"You do realize that if we let you go and I ever see you again, you'll have to talk a lot faster to avoid my axe."

Kool, I understand, I'm just trying to play it out, this is the first adventure we have really been on. Rohan trait of being overprotective is extremely important to him. However, he also believes that letting him go could also leads to him betraying his words and getting reinforcements for a future encounter.

Letting him go is not even an option, I will not stand for it Liesel. If we let him go today without seeing proper justice who to say that he will not return with more Orcs and try to take this town, or worse warn the others of our knowledge of there plan and give them a chance to expect us. This will surely lead to giving them the advantage, and we were already caught by surprise in the ally by that punk of a thief who ran away when we were attacked by the wolves. He must be turned in, they will get the information from him if he will not speak here.

Rohan temper can be heard in his voice, but hearing his fellow group member telling him to control his temper he stepped back from the prisoner, giving just a enough space that he wouldn't strike out against him again. He turned to Nyym:

Nyym I think your skills would be best if you finished scouting the rest of the rooms down here and see if there is prisoners here. Liesel and I will ensure this rat will not move till your return. Don't challenge anyone if you encounter someone. Return and let us know, we will aid you.

Rohan immediately trying to take the role of group leader at the moment, his anger getting the best of him. Knowing he must find calmness once again. After speaking to Nyym, he walked to the wall away from the prisoner and turned his back to Liesel and the Prisoner looking at the wall he closed his eyes for a but a moment.

"Control yourself, I must focus and get my mind under control. Your letting this Orc get under your skin, so what if he got the best of you in combat, so what if they attacked us and are planning our town destruction. Let it go, re-frame from the murderous thoughts of killing this Orc half bread. He must be brought to justice, taken into be interrogated and processed by the law of our town.

Rohan calmed himself and then turned around and leaned against the wall, watching Liesel and the Prisoner, keeping his tongue under control for the moment.

Liesel-Marie nods as Rohan moves away. To Dak, she offers, "My mind is not made up. But if you would purchase your freedom, he is the one you will need to bargain with. Can you guarantee your information and future behavior in some fashion?"

"Tell me something of the prisoner."

Daktani took the shot to the jaw from Rohan, his eyes wide with surprise. Big man, beating on a helpless prisoner. He spat on the chamber floor, a spot of blood intermixed with his saliva. Now who's playing games. Look, if you're going to turn me in or kill me, then be done with it. Otherwise, I've got nothing to further to say unless I'm guaranteed my freedom.

Just like it takes a big man to come here to attack a town for personal gain. What has these people done to you to deserve such a date as the one you speak of?

Nyym looks over to the others and then back to Dal.

Personally if it were just me, I would release you once you have us whet we require.

Nyym smiles siniterly as he continues.

But do not mistaken my words as weakness. See I like a challenge and it would be a challenge to hunt such a coward as yourself and of great personal satisfaction to have ur death by my hands as my reward. I also promise you that should something happen to this prisoner or my friends back in town. I would consider it a personal attack to myself that would bring down my wrath and vengeance would be swift and painful. You would love the rest of you life looking over you shoulder wondering if I am there or not. You speak as if you know me. Friend you have no idea of me or what I am capable of. While I can not speak for the others in this I can promise you. Hurt my friends and my home and you will suffer in such ways that you will in turn beg for death in the end.

Nyyms voice takes on a hard chilling edge as he speaks. One that although he can not see their faces. He is sure they are giving looks of concern both at his willingness to release this half orc, but also at the statement the he would in joy such a hint should he do so. Once said, Nyym goes seriously quite with a look of dare on his face as he watchs Dak unflinching.

As Nyym winked at Liesel-Marie, the knuckles of his hands began to ache and suddenly, the half-drow wasn't standing in the meditation chamber beneath the Plague House anymore.

Instead, he found himself in the common room of a tavern, standing at a table flanked on either side by Kytynna, Rohan, Liesel-Marie, and Aodhán. Also at the table was a wide man with a salt-and-pepper beard clad in thick furs and wearing dark-lens spectacles.

From outside a voice could be heard, intermingling with the buzz inside of the establishment.

Doom is..... upon us! Pray for your salvation that..... doesn't take you!

If there was more said, the half-drow couldn't focus on it, as he gleefully threw a punch at a nearby patron and initiated a full-blown brawl within the tavern.

Right as he was about to be punched back in return, the ache in his hands subsided and Nyym found himself back in the chamber with Liesel-Marie and Rohan, along with their prisoner Daktani.

When the boys leave, Liesel-Marie turns to Daktani. "Well, friend Dak, there you go. Do you feel safer now? You prize your life above all things." She hefts her axe and stands over him, "Just asking: How much do you value your right hand?"

No sooner had the words left Liesel-Marie's mouth than she found herself standing in front of a desk located in someone's office. Across from her sat a wide man with a salt-and-pepper beard clad in thick furs and wearing dark-lens spectacles.

Those that take what they do not earn must pay dearly in their turn. The man stared intently at the Erutaki from behind steepled fingers wrapped in gloves of silk finery.

The man's words reverberated in the warrior's mind as she found herself, along with Nyym, staring down at the beaten and battered body of a young man barely in his early twenties.

Pick him up, she heard herself saying, her voice cold and without emotion. He hasn't paid nearly enough for what he's done.

With a sadistic smile, the half-drow lifted the barely breathing young man back up to his feet and held him when his rubbery legs proved incapable of supporting his weight.

How much do you value the hands you used to steal from our master?

The young man, staring out from eyes swollen nearly shut, sent bloody sputum defiantly onto the Erutaki's face.

Liesel-Marie's flashed, betraying her anger, as she delivered punch after punch into the young man's torso, not stopping even when his ribs collapsed or the light in her victim's eyes faded. Only when she felt satisfied did the warrior relent. She then calmly wiped away the bloody spittle from her cheek and regarded the half-drow with hard eyes.

Dispose of this trash, but leave him where his body will be easily found. It'll be a warning to everyone that stealing from the master will not be tolerated.

The Erutaki could only guess as to whether or not Nyym had carried out her demand because she found herself back in the meditation chamber staring into the eye of a fearful Daktani.

She catches her breath, the vision suddenly woven with memories of the goddess' tenets that were whispered in this very chamber. There is no honor in killing or harming an unarmed man, no matter how evil.

Glaring at the man, using her anger at herself as a tool, she adds, "State your case, man. Why should I waste time and breath defending you when I could kill you for your crimes and no one, no one would find fault in my choice? What words can you share that will save you?"

For a moment, Daktani looked utterly and completely confused. But once he realized that the woman before him was giving him the opportunity to make his case, whatever hesitation he may have had flew from him and Daktani opened his mouth to speak.

This was his moment to be finally free of the mess he had been caught up in.

It was at that moment a trim athletic figure stood framed in the doorway to Liesel-Marie's right and a raspy voice spat an expletive, a sentiment echoed by Dak as well.

The person was obviously female and dressed in slinky studded black leather. The pommels of at least six daggers could be seen sticking out from sheathes on either hip, while four tapering blades stood out like points from a compass on her back. The ceramic mask that she wore really held the warrior's attention. Dark gray, with a somewhat reflective surface, the only features left uncovered by the ceramic mask were the newcomer's eyes, hard amber orbs that left no doubt in Liesel-Marie's mind that they were in the presence of a killer.

Just go on and end it for me now, Daktani muttered, his head held low and his voice holding a fearful edge. Because if you don't, then she will.

Since technically Rohan and Nyym hadn't exited the chamber yet, they too can see this woman. I think it's safe to say that all parties are surprised. I will roll initiative, but whether or not this turns into a fight is solely up to you all and how you handle this situation.

Due to our antagonist having a higher initiative modifier than Liesel-Marie, she goes first.

No words were wasted as the masked woman dashed away, moving to her right and through the chamber she was in, the same one that Nyym had run through earlier trying to save Rohan.

"We must follow her! If there's anything to save, she will take it or destroy it!" Liesel-Marie moves to their captive and quickly unties him. "You have a chance and a choice. Aid us and get a second chance with the city council. Or look over your shoulder for the rest of your short life for one female killer or another to find you. Because one of us will."

Nyym rocked by his vision and it's implications was suddenly snapped out of it by 2 different voices. One he recognised as Dak. The other a new voice all together. He had only just turned to see the slim figure in the door as she turned to dash back wince she had entered when LMs voice rang out strong as she spoke to all who could hear. As she untied Dam with her offer. Nyym bolted for the passage he had escorted Dam though not moments before. As he passed LM and Dak. Trusting Liesils judgement, Nyym tossed the Half Orc his original weapon trusting that if he turned on them now he would be dead within a swing of LMs Axe.

If ur helping your gonna need this.

Without another word, Nyym was out the door in an intercept path to try and been the woman to the stairs to block her exit.

Well this just went down hill faster the the swing of Liesil-Maries axe.

Daktani looked down at the rope that he had been bound with and for a moment it looked as though Liesel-Marie would come to regret her release of the prisoner. For a moment, it seemed as though the half-orc would attack the Erutaki warrior in a bid to gain the good graces of his former allies.

It was a moment that never came.

That was Bax the Mask, the half-orc began. She, along with Grache and Ghaer, the female troll you killed, were emissaries from Skreed's tribe, the Twisted Heart. I was tasked with scheduling regular meetings between Skreed's infiltrators and the representatives of the orcs poised to attack Trunau to keep both groups updated on each other’s progress. A few nights ago, before one of our regular meetings, we caught a young woman snooping around here. Based on the kit she wore, this young woman was trained to range far afield in the wilderness and survive using stealth. Bax got the drop on her with an ease that outpaces anything I've ever seen.

Daktani continued, The young woman is in the furnace room, but the door that leads into it is locked. However, there is a secret passage in that chamber behind the statue. He pointed to the room Bax ran through with one hand while catching the weapon - his weapon - tossed to him by the half-drow.

Those present can make a DC 15 Society check to possibly recall knowledge about Bax the Mask or an Intelligence check with same DC.

Success:
Bax the Mask is a member of the Twisted Hearts tribe of orcs led by the hill giantess Grenseldek and sister to Kelseph, who acts the current general of her forces. Both Bax and Kelseph have a reputation for bloodlust and violence.

Rohan caught by surprise turns around and tries to chase after the woman. A moment later he passes through the door then down the hall through the other room to catch up with the woman. Unsure if she's going to get away, Rohan couldn't let that happen. He tried to catch her before she can make it to the stairwells from the bottom to the top floor. Trailing just a few moments behind Nyym.

coward you will not get away.

As soon as Rohan was in range he turned the corner and fired off a ribbon to try and attack the woman's leg to take her leg out from underneath her.

Rohan tried his best but he could not make the attack. She was just moving to gracefully and too fast for him to be able to make his attack. So he continued to close in on her as fast as he could.

Round 2 has begun. Liesel-Marie and Daktani are going after the prisoner, leaving Nyym and Rohan to deal with the newcomer known as Bax the Mask.

Exiting the meditation chamber through the door where the mystery woman stood, Liesel-Marie saw the lightly colored stone statue depicting a burning chariot wheel to her right. After moving the religious icon aside, she was able to make out the once hidden door. Pushing it open, the half-orc and the Erutaki made their way through to the cobweb-ridden passageway beyond.

Liesel-Marie: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18
Nyym: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
Rohan: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
Bax the Mask: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18

Bax's reflexes, heightened by her situation, took over as she performed a cartwheel with a twist of the legs done so that the leg that left the ground second landed on the ground first to avoid Rohan's earth ribbon. She slowly raised her head and stared at the incoming half-drow and human. Though the mask obscured her features, there was a sense that the woman's lips were twisted into a vicious sneer, reinforced by the fact that her right hand dropped to the daggers on her hip and drew one even as she dashed forward with breakneck speed to attack Nyym.

Bax's dagger attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24
Dagger damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Sneak Stab: 3d8 ⇒ (3, 5, 1) = 9

She came up from her run, dagger in hand. Nyym feinted left, then right in an attempt to throw off her aim. Unfazed, Bax pivoted to her right and drove the blade into the half-drow's right shoulder. Bax's shoulders shook as she let out a raspy giggle in front of Nyym, her golden eyes wide with glee even as she drew the blade out of her opponent's flesh and watched as the blood poured freely from Nyym's wound.

Nyym currently has 7 hp, which puts him at the Wounded threshold and gives him a –2 penalty on all attack rolls, saving throws, skill checks, ability checks, and AC. At the beginning of Nyym's turn, he'll lose an additional 3 points of damage due to the bleed damage from her sneak stab, which will put him at 4 hp and at the Critical threshold to give him a –3 penalty on all attack rolls, saving throws, skill checks, ability checks, and AC. The bleeding can be stopped by a successful DC 15 Survival check or the application of any effect that heals hit point damage. Otherwise he'll continue to lose 3 hp at the beginning of his turn. Also, Nyym needs to make a DC 13 Will save (-2 penalty due to his current wound threshold) as being close to Bax, he sees her mask go from being vaguely skull-like to become something eerier and more fearsome. Failure means that he is shaken by the effect, and takes a –2 penalty on all attack rolls, weapon damage rolls, saving throws, skill checks, and ability checks that stacks with the penalties from his Wounded condition.

Rohan Spotted the Crazy attacks from the women, Bax, Seeing Nyym and Bax dance back and forth as the blades flurried around and around. Bax gaining the upper hand with the deep blow to the shoulder. Rohan used this time to take advantage of there engagement to tumble past Bax and try to block the doorway leading out of the dungeon.

Tumble: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (17) + 11 = 28

Rohan looked like he was from a circus or something as he rolled around Bax with incredible grace, surely skilled enough to avoid her attack, but her skill was incredible, she might still be good enough to make the attack. Though once he came to his stance he finished his move by stepping onto the bottom steps to prevent her escape. Lashing out another ribbon of sand with a sharp stone blade on the end against her, though her mix up in combat was making things a bit tricky.

Onslaught blast: 1d20 + 7 - 4 ⇒ (1) + 7 - 4 = 4
dmg: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

The amazing tumble and making his way to the steps made him a little dizzy as his strike flew out from his feet like a whip, but quickly ended as it went in a totally different direction, nearly clashing against the wall, but fortunately he was impeding her escape.
