Inikai was not going to "flame on" until is was needed in combat due to the risk of an ally being knocked into him.

In Shoanti: "It is a gift from a spirit. It would take too long to explain right now."

Muchorak nods in understanding, his mind quickly to wondering what other spirits have blessed people of these lands.

Ali

Spoiler:
you hear nothing at any of the doors..

Not a single sound other than yourselves is to be heard down here. the place is coolalmost cold after the heat of the furnace room


Female Forest Gnome Wild Druid / 9| G AC17, W AC18 H AC17 DW AC21; HP 81/81, CMD 21, F/R/W 10/10/6 **, Percep +11 Low-light & Scent, Init +7

Having checked out all the doors and found nothing by scent (ok hearing...damn 3.5 rules! lol ;-) Ali looks to her pack leader as to which door he wants to go through first, ready to follow him whereever he decides to go.


Male Human Ranger 10// AC 19 (20 w/2 weap), FF 16, T 15 // HP 109/109 // Percept +14 (+18 Forests/+16 Mtns) // Init +3 (+7 Forests/+5 Mtns)

Muchorak will take the left at the bottom of the stairs and proceed to the first door, checking to make sure his companions are ready...he will place his hand on the handle/knob and as stealthy as possible he will try the handle to see if it is locked.

If he finds the door is unlocked, he will give a quick nod to his companions, then push the door open. Muchorak will stay in the hall initially to see what is in the room before he proceeds in weapon at the ready.

expanded Map

The room is small not more than ten feet square and is devoid of any contents..however the salient feature is a tunnel carved into the bedrock and leading out of the room to the north


Male Human Binder 11 |Init +7 |HP 68/102 |AC 19 FF 16 T 13| CMD +8 | F+10 R+10 W+9 Percep +8

"Let's check the other rooms before we explore the tunnel. Also, we should let the guards upstairs know what we found."


Male Human Ranger 10// AC 19 (20 w/2 weap), FF 16, T 15 // HP 109/109 // Percept +14 (+18 Forests/+16 Mtns) // Init +3 (+7 Forests/+5 Mtns)

"Agreed, let us clear the this level first then inform the gaurd." Muchorak will go to the next door, using the same method as the previous door; silently testing the knob to see if it's unlocked, if so he will nod to his companions before opening the door, he will remain in the hall way with his weapon ready until he can identify what the contents of the room are.

Murchorak tests the handle ..the door is unlocked..he pushes the door oen and the sound of something metallic hitting the floor greets his ears.As the door opens fully he sees this man standing up from a cot.

Inikai moves in with his moring star, feignts a low swing to the knees then comes up at the archer's neck.

Attack roll: 19

Damage if it hits: 3.

Ali moves in attempting to trip the stranger, thinking 'Maybe he not bad? Maybe good talk?'
how does trip work btw? What do you need from Ali GM?

Spoiler:
Trip
You can try to trip an opponent as an unarmed melee attack. You can only trip an opponent who is one size category larger than you, the same size, or smaller.

Making a Trip Attack
Make an unarmed melee touch attack against your target. This provokes an attack of opportunity from your target as normal for unarmed attacks.

If your attack succeeds, make a Strength check opposed by the defender’s Dexterity or Strength check (whichever ability score has the higher modifier). A combatant gets a +4 bonus for every size category he is larger than Medium or a -4 penalty for every size category he is smaller than Medium. The defender gets a +4 bonus on his check if he has more than two legs or is otherwise more stable than a normal humanoid. If you win, you trip the defender. If you lose, the defender may immediately react and make a Strength check opposed by your Dexterity or Strength check to try to trip you.

Avoiding Attacks of Opportunity
If you have the Improved Trip feat, or if you are tripping with a weapon (see below), you don’t provoke an attack of opportunity for making a trip attack.

Being Tripped (Prone)
A tripped character is prone. Standing up is a move action.

Tripping a Mounted Opponent
You may make a trip attack against a mounted opponent. The defender may make a Ride check in place of his Dexterity or Strength check. If you succeed, you pull the rider from his mount.

Tripping with a Weapon
Some weapons can be used to make trip attacks. In this case, you make a melee touch attack with the weapon instead of an unarmed melee touch attack, and you don’t provoke an attack of opportunity.

If you are tripped during your own trip attempt, you can drop the weapon to avoid being tripped

So I need a touch attack roll vs an AC of 15. Wolves are counted as hvaving Improved trip so there will be no attack of opportunity on you

Wow, thanks Wellard but that's all much too complicated for a simple Gnome like Ali, she'll just ready an attack to Bite 'im instead if he doesn't give up to Big Bear ;-)

Hmmm...the usual reaction to any 3.5 combat manouvere..I'll hit him with my teeth

waiting for Jael..will give him till tomorrow to respond then post for him


I thought about delaying an action to see what the elf does but then I got over-anxious.

Inakai 25
Murchorak 16
Stranger 15
Ali(delaying) 14
Jael 11

Inakai strikes the man hard his morning star thudding into his upper chest. Ali growls deep in her throat as Murchorak calls on the stranger to surrender.

The man drops his bow, raising his hands then suddenly dives through Murchoraks legs and out into the passageway and away from a surprised Jael.Regaining his feet he moves swiftly away from the party heading for the room you entered previously.(Natural 20 tumble roll to pass you all without provoking an AoO)

Muchorak turns and takes pursuit of the individual, if he is able to catch up to him and swing he will.

D20= 13+3= 16, Dmg D8= 5+2=7


Female Forest Gnome Wild Druid / 9| G AC17, W AC18 H AC17 DW AC21; HP 81/81, CMD 21, F/R/W 10/10/6 **, Percep +11 Low-light & Scent, Init +7

would that have counted getting by Ali's readied action to bite?Anyway, not a big deal :)

The grey wolf takes off in a blur, (assuming she catches up to him) she bites at his calves more to hamper him than to kill him.
Attack & Dam=1d20 3=20, 1d4 2=4


Male Human Binder 11 |Init +7 |HP 68/102 |AC 19 FF 16 T 13| CMD +8 | F+10 R+10 W+9 Percep +8

"Probably a trap."

Inikai picks up the bow and then joins the pursuit.

Sovereign Court

Male variable 12th lvl Dm/5th level fanboy/3rd Lvl Pedant

Jael chases after your target and gets close enough to throw a dagger as Ali snaps at the mans heels. The dagger sinks deep into his back and he collapses in a heap on the floor of the tunnel bleeding from there and his legs.


Male Human Binder 11 |Init +7 |HP 68/102 |AC 19 FF 16 T 13| CMD +8 | F+10 R+10 W+9 Percep +8

Inikai jumps past the man to block his path and activates his flame aura then yells: "Stay down or I will burn you alive!"

Intimidate check: 6 (plus whatever circumstance bonus you see fit for flame aura, surrounding allies, face-down on the floor etc.)

Invisible Castle lets me down again!


Female Forest Gnome Wild Druid / 9| G AC17, W AC18 H AC17 DW AC21; HP 81/81, CMD 21, F/R/W 10/10/6 **, Percep +11 Low-light & Scent, Init +7

Any particular reason why our 'NPC' Jael moved to kill the man? ;-)


Male Human Ranger 10// AC 19 (20 w/2 weap), FF 16, T 15 // HP 109/109 // Percept +14 (+18 Forests/+16 Mtns) // Init +3 (+7 Forests/+5 Mtns)

Assuming Muchorak has caught up with everyone else and the fallen stranger, he will place the tip of his sword at the base of the stranger's neck, preparing for a coup-de-grace maneuver, "Hold still or your life will end, I have no time for childish games!"

If the stranger attempts to flee, or move as if to flee Muchorak will complete the act.

Sovereign Court

Male variable 12th lvl Dm/5th level fanboy/3rd Lvl Pedant

well Ali's bite hadn't stopped him..and Jael wouldnt have put him down if I hadn't thrown a critical for the dagger

The man lies bleeding out on the floor..your shouts and threats go unheeded due to the fact that he is unconcious


Male Human Ranger 10// AC 19 (20 w/2 weap), FF 16, T 15 // HP 109/109 // Percept +14 (+18 Forests/+16 Mtns) // Init +3 (+7 Forests/+5 Mtns)

Muchorak will attempt to cease the strangers blood loss, "He may be able to provide us with good information."

Heal Check D20= 13+3=16

Muchorak will be using the strangers own clothing for bandages, meaning he will tear parts of his shirt off and use it as bandages.

Sovereign Court

Male variable 12th lvl Dm/5th level fanboy/3rd Lvl Pedant

Murchorak is able to staunch the blood flow and stabilise your prisoner. You'll still need magical healing or long rest to restore his health but at least he wont lose any more blood.


Male Human Ranger 10// AC 19 (20 w/2 weap), FF 16, T 15 // HP 109/109 // Percept +14 (+18 Forests/+16 Mtns) // Init +3 (+7 Forests/+5 Mtns)

With the stranger stablized, Muchorak will search him for other weapons and items, placing them off to the side in view of everyone. His main concern removing any other weapons from him to include ammunition for weapons.


Female Forest Gnome Wild Druid / 9| G AC17, W AC18 H AC17 DW AC21; HP 81/81, CMD 21, F/R/W 10/10/6 **, Percep +11 Low-light & Scent, Init +7

As there is no immediate danger present Ali switches to two leg form and helps out big bear with the binding. When BB mentions questioning the man she says "He no talk when sleep." She then wiggles her fingers and mumbles some words and everyone feels a wave of cool refreshing energy wash over them. All within 30', including baddie, heal 1hp/rnd for 3 rounds

She then says "We chekim other rooms too? Yes? Yes?"

At least he was not awake to laugh at my high-pitched, whiny, thoroughly-laughable Intimidate check.

"Let's bring one of the heavy crates or other object we saw at the bottom of the stairs to the room he was in, then tie him to it."

"If he recovers we could use him as a hostage against whoever is holding Ameliko."

btw it looks like Psifox is MIA..he's not posted in any game in over a week

Ali's spell closes the mans wounds and leaves him unconcious but healed.

PsiFox is missing in several other (probably all his/her) other pbp's as well. So likely something happened or they just can't get to a computer...?

"We need no box, just the rope, I can tie him up right here or in the room there. He'll be on his belly but unable to move." Muchorak replies to Inikai.

Think Hog Tie

Looking to Wolf Spirit, "Yes we need to search the other rooms, but I wonder if this fellow might have some good information of what we might be up against. I'd rather check him for information before using him as a Hostage."

Ali nods her head in agreement with the wisdom of her pack leader

Sorry for the late notice all, the wife sprung a 3 day Scotland trip on me, will not have any internet during the trip. We get back on Tuesday. Wellard if you want to NPC Muchorak during my absence, you have my blessing. Again sorry all, thanks.

Muchorak picks up the unconcious prisoner and carries him back to the room you found him in..he deftly secures him in a hogtie then turns to the rest of you.

"We need him awake to question him..Wolf Spirit can you work your magic again or will we have to wait? Jael, Inakai will you search this room there may be something here to tell us who he is and what he was doing here"

Hope you have a good time in my homeland


Male Human Binder 11 |Init +7 |HP 68/102 |AC 19 FF 16 T 13| CMD +8 | F+10 R+10 W+9 Percep +8

Inikai slings the elf's bow across his back and the looks about the room very closely to see if there is anything of interest there.

Search check: 17

"We should strip him as well. This would keep him from hiding anything in his clothes and, on the odd chance that he escapes, he would attract notice running through the streets."

Sovereign Court

Stripping the prisoner and searching the room provides you with the following.

One ring a simple gold band

One potion flask

masterwork thieves tools,

masterwork flute,

silver earrings

journal

6 pouches of gold dust worth 50 gp each,

8 pouches of silver dust worth 5 gp each, 

10 platinum pieces

The journal is detailed here

Inikai quickly looks through the journal.

"This man is disturbed. It might be better to hand him and this journal to the guard before we go further."

"Indubitably" says Jael "but by the same token we do know now that this is the man we seek...Amiekos brother"

"What's a quasit?" he asks reading the journal over Inikai's shoulder

As Ali can't read she simply looks at the pictures over Inikai's shoulder, giggling at some of them until she gets to the last one when she backs away and says "No! No No! That no good! That no good"

But Wow! Guys this is a Major find! Full details on an imminent large scale invasion of the town. Information of a long term plot against various town residents. And we now know what happened to the body of the priest. This is Big. I'm not sure if this is metagaming or not as Ali wouldn't come up with these ideas, but I say we take the journal and prisoner asap to Kendra the mayor, Sherif Hemlock and whoever's in charge of the guard/militia. We also must leave a substantial guard at the entrance to this underground section until we get back. (Yes I had another look at the RofRL players's guide-some good stuff in there.)

And, while the treasure still doesn't mean anything to Ali at this point-Nice Haul! ;-) And Hey! I just remembered that the little halfling factotum had been holding Ali's 10gp we all got from the noble we rescued and now's he's 'taken off' ! lol

Then, being curious over the rest of the man's belongings, Ali mumbles a little chant, wiggles her fingers and casts Detect Magic over them

PS DM, with the 1st and 2nd band of gobs and now this rogue..are we anywhere near 2nd level yet? Just curious :)

If a Knowledge (Religion) check is more appropriate the roll would have been a 17.
