I am still stuck so rd 4 save is DC16
Crap. Duncan is unconscious. Next round -1, after that Dead.
I'll get my fighter ready. You can sort with the rest if I die.
Duncan's replacement could be a dissousioned guard.
I'll get the build for your approval. Basically a TWF. Optimised for melee but with no magic or other goodies. Should be a bit less overpowering than Duncan
Lucrezia assuming you use your entire action to swim, you catch up to Andrea's feet. You notice the thrashing is diminishing and the rope is still tight. Your fingers come up to a hook that the rope is caught under.
Andrea tries to undo the rope.
Duncan is Neg 1
Duncan wasn't unconscious but he was unable to take a breath too. I couldn't find a rule that covered this situation, so I thought I'd do a modified rule to try to help you out rather than kill you off.
Andrea attempts to share breathe with Duncan if possible.
More rolls?
Andrea you don't see Duncan.
You have the rope unhooked but you don't feel any more thrashing coming from below you.
Lucrezia you pass Andrea and find a body with beard on the bottom of the pool, the body is not moving.
John and Orsin feel the rope has some slack and they can tug. Duncan's body lurches up a bit.
Andrea clamps her mouth over Duncan's while pinching his nose and breathes into his motuh
Calistria! I'll bear the child of whoever you want if you spare this man such a stupid death!
"John, whatever snagged the rope is gone, pull harder!"
Feeling the rope slack a bit, Orsin renews his grip on the rope and pulls with greater force.
The rope slips a bit in John's hand but Orsin tugging holds it sturdy. It feels like something, or someone, has applied some weight to the rope.
---
Andrea breaths some air into Duncan's mouth.
John tries again to pull up the rope.
HUFF! PUFF! SWIM!
Lucrezia grabs hold of the body, prays it's the right one and starts swimming towards the surface as fast as she can.
Lucrezia and Andrea emerge gasping for breath with a limp Duncan. John and Orsin tugging on the rope manage to get all three to the side safely.
Lucrezia helps get Duncan back up onto the walkway then turns to Andrea. "Is he still breathing?! Still alive?! Can you do anything for him?!
GET US ON THE LEDGE!
Andrea helps drag Duncan out. Lucrezia, you are a sailor and know how to help people who have been drowning right? we need to get the water out of him!
Andrea uses Stablize on Duncan and then works to clear his body of water.
ArgghhH!
Andrea turns Spiritual weapon into Cure Moderate Wounds
With Andrea's cure spell and Lucrezia helping to expel the water, Duncan coughs out water in a giant gasp for breath.
Andrea's hands work with Lucrezia's to force out the water. When Duncan vomits up the water and gasps for air, Andrea slumps next to him.
Huh..Hah...Damn..Almost..Almost..lost another..
Duncan's Eyes pop wide and he rolls over and vomits up a lungfull of water.
After a minute or two of coughing and Hacking, he looks to the two women.
Seriously ladies, ye gotta buy a dwarf a few drinks before getting THAT personal. Ha,ha,ha,ha. *coug*Did we win?
Srk..Hahaha..Snurk.Hic.Hic.. Andrea starts hiccuping and sobbing, wrapping her arms around herself...
Lucrezia collapses back against the wall of the chamber in relief. "Thank the gods we got you out in time."
Orsin rests a comforting hand on Andrea's shoulder, "Well done, dear. Well done both of you." He gives a thankful nod to Lucrezia as well.
"Welcome back, Redhammer. We nearly lost you there for a moment."
Orsin will quickly scan the area with a detect magic spell and looks about for any signs of danger.
Andrea takes a few deep breaths and composes herself, nodding in thanks for Orsin's support. She then pulls out her wand of CLW and taps herself before using it on Orsin and Duncan.
orsin the enter room itself has a magical aura but that makes sense since its a demiplane.
Who here is still suffering from the attacks of the shadows? I have two Restoration spells and we better up up to fulls trength.
"I'm fine, when everyone is rested, I suggest we move on."
Casts a Lesser Restore on herself to fix her weaked health
Ok, I am ready. Let us continue.
Duncan coughs again. I could do with couple o taps a that wand still girl, if ye don't mind.
The dwarf doesn't wait for an answer regathering his gear and straightening himself up and stamping about to shake out cold Iimbs.
The domed ceiling above this large chamber sags, with long mildewy strips of wood paneling hanging down from above like drooping branches. A large pool of churning muddy water fills much of the room, flowing down a trough further into the room between a pair of slippery stairs to gather in a smaller pool beyond. Dozens of bones lie scattered along the five-footwide ledge that surrounds the pool.
There is door at the far end.
Andrea taps Duncan again with the wand.
Huf..Ok. Let us go through the door. Andrea points to the door at the other end. Standard marching order I presume Andrea moves with the group.
"Here, let me jump line to check it out first. I'd rather Duncan not have spring any traps after going through all that. Though I'm sure he could handle it just fine if he did."
