Oddly enough, Shalee makes some sense here.
Yorn floats to the ground no issue.
Gotta walk across the plank to get to A4.
DC 12 acrobatics now that its poo covered.
Or I guess you could tear down an outside wall. Hell just set the building on fire and loot the corpses. =P Oh to be evil.
As Yorn crosses the plank, Mark looks to the other entrance that Shalee mentioned. "By process of elimination, I deduce that this is the way forward," he says, pitching his voice slightly higher to imitate Nalun's turn of phrase, then nudges the wizard playfully as he walks through the portal.
A4.
The floor of this room has fallen away, leaving a narrow, charred ledge along the south and east walls. To the northwest, a ledge heaped with crates and barrels sits, while above the rafters of the attic lay bare to view.
The ledge is safe to walk on, but is sloped dangerously at
places, and requires a successful DC 1 0 Acrobatics check to
navigate.
As Yorn begins picking his way across, Mark studies the lower floor where the floor fell away. His experience with the last room makes him wary.
Nalun follows behind a bit
and falls....
Nalun tries to follow Yorn and falls into the sewage.
DC 12 Fort save Nalun.
"GOBBOS!" Mark calls out, pointing at them, then, "MAGGIE! KILL!" Maggie leaps into the pit after the goblins.
...Damn.
Nalun lands in the muck and begins flailing about madly.
Nalun is fine. Maggie is already as sick as she is going to get from the stuff so she does not need to roll again. In fact after the first Fort roll for being in the Poop don't roll anymore.
Map has been updated where the Goblins are and where your character is. Sha and Kierra are still at the entrance debating on the sanity of all of this. (have not posted)
Yorn just move along the edge spaces of the map so no charging. The edge spaces have room for you to walk on if you make your acrobatics check like you just did.
One goblin fires off a shot at Yorn.
Wow Crit confirm? lol no crit.
Round 1 GO! No ambush due to Mark being so perceptive.
Nalun waves his wand and shouts Geearrarrmartin!
and the wand erupts with a streak of light which hits the goblin!
Shalee carefully crosses the plank and draws her sword.
Kierra attempts to follow her athletic older sister across the ledge...
she loses her balance and falls, flailing! "Sha!!"
Mark sighs, about to get filthy again after being just cleaned, and jumped back into the muck alongside Maggie. He'll move to the nearest goblin and take a swing.
Mark and Yorn Both miss and smash the barrels and flooring with the dual great axes.
The Goblins run away from such a display of force and into the next room.
You both take a swing as they run away only Mark connects cleaving the head from on of the 2 goblins.
They left there heavy crossbows and 11 bolts where you are standing.
Yorn rushes in to the next room and catches himself just before he falls into the sewage. This chamber has no floor, opening directly into the sump of a sewage pit below. Likewise, the charred ceiling has fallen away, revealing the fire-blackened rafters above. next to a hole cut in the southwest corner of the wall, a crude ladder that has been nailed to the wall provides access to the rafters above.
You look up and see that the Goblin has climbed into the rafters.
Mark lets out a satisfied "Ha-ha!" when he cleaves the fleeing goblin's skinny neck. Looking up, he catches Yorn's retreating backside as he charges into the pipe. Following him, he points over the half-orc's shoulder at the ladder. "Up there!" he shouts.
Yorn learned his lesson climbing up the ladder and simply climbs up the wall instead.
Nalun begins investigating the new room.
Casting Detect Magic and looking for any place that Natalya might be
Mark draws his light crossbow and takes a shot at the goblin.
He looks frustrated, trying to operate such a tiny weapon in comparison to his greataxe. Wish I could just cleave the bugger... he thinks to himself as he struggles to aim straight.
Nalun you detect strong ancient magic coming from above you in the rafters. Also please remember there is no where to stand in the new room the whole floor is sewage.
Yorn you find yourself alone in the rafters with
2 Stirges
3 Goblins
and a human woman you assume is Natalia
The map is up to date.
DC 20 Climb check to get into the rafters.
Yorn your in combat so take your first action.
You guys on the ground have line of sight on Yorn if you jump into the sewage.
GUYS! Something very powerful is up there! Nalun shouts as he examines the arcane aura further.
Yes but not enough to be combat effective. The magic is coming from the human woman. The magic is ancient Thalosian.

Yorn pulls himself up onto the rafter, full of pride. That pride turns quickly to panic as he sees the array of potential enemies around him.
"Why do I wander off on my own like that?" he mutters to himself.
Yorn carefully takes a step back away from the creatures, making sure to stand only on the spaces where the two perpendicular rafters cross and avoiding what appear to be the crumbling areas.
He looks to the woman and says, "Natalya? Lady Heidmarch sent us to help you. She's very worried about you. Are you okay?"
Shalee makes a badass motion with her sword. . "Stand down, goblins, and live."
Natalya is shaken for 2 rounds the Goblins 3 rounds.
-2 to Hit with all weapons.
Natalya responds to Yorn.
No one such as you does not deserve the shard. You will only try to take it from me. No one else is worthy of its power!
I have changed my mind you can shoot from another room but the targets will have cover. +4 AC.
Nalun waves his wand a bit and shoots a missile of force at the yellow goblin!
Yellow takes 2.
The goblin manages to keep its footing on the rafters.
Mark growls in frustration, puts away his crossbow, and begins climbing up, trying to follow Yorn's actions.
You dont fall but you dont make it up either.
I will do my attacks soon.
