Naia frowns in disgust and moves away, pointing at the bedroll.
"It's colder there than elsewhere in the room..."
It is harmless, I suspect that the sheer amount of necromantic energy is keeping this.. "echo" tied to the mortal realm...
Naia likewise listens for sounds of the battle.
"I do not any longer believe we can insert ourselves successfully into yonder battle before it ends, nor do I think we can travel with haste to the battle without exposing ourselves to further risk or harm -swift travel allows for too little care or caution.
This room has far too many entrances to it - if we wish to ambush any pursuers or scouts looking to ascertain where the watery creature came from, I advise we return to the initial site and wait for them as Rameth and Ealasaid suggested."
"Agreed. Let's go." Quartle joins the others if they head back.
Rameth nods and walks back
i can't help but feel bad for the creature
Ok, so back to the water room!
Roland, when you were all still back in the large room, you noticed the sounds appeared to be coming from the North West.
On the way back to the water room, you hear the sounds slowly begin to die out and the battle appear to end. You do not hear or see anything else on the walk back, except for a pretty cool little slug that was oozing along at one point. He was pretty chill.
The water room contains many rusted pieces of pipes and four empty barrels, besides the pipes and keg that lead through the complex.
Do we know that they will come for us?
|
[ooc]1 or 2 could also wait in room #4.[ooc]
"Rameth, while I not sure if they will come this way, they could easily track the water trail back this way. I agree that it may be a wise decision to lay in wait for a few moments to see what happens."
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
On Going Effects:
Do we know that they will come for us?
No. But we lose nothing by waiting
Ealasaid could wait in room 13.
So, who's going to wait in what rooms? Are you guys just gonna hide or are you trying to make an elaborate Scooby-Doo trap?
Rameth will wait in the water elemental room to the side of the door.
Naia will wait in Room 13 with Ealasaid, unless Quartle and Namon want to, in which case Naia will support Rameth. She just prefers coming at people from behind… Aah, stuff it. Naia will wait behind the barrels in room 4 with Rameth.
Namon will be found lurking in wait near Roland...

Roland looks at the light source(s) that just came into the room with him.
"Welcome friends," Roland says with a smile. "Yes, I see the plan forming in my mind now, attract them to this room with the light, so that the others may attack from the rear."
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
On Going Effects:
after minutes, you all hear the faint pitter patter of footsteps coming down the hall. No light sources are seen. When the steps enter the hallway, they suddenly stop, apparently alerted to the light.
Rameth chugs down his last shield extract and puts a sharpened knife in each hand
Naia gets a sunrod ready to unleash.
Ah yes, I did read that, and then promptly forgot :x. So Rameth and Naia in the water room, let's just say Quartle is in the other room with Ealasaid, so that everyone is in a group of two?
Let me know if there is anything else anyone wants to do in preparation, otherwise we will continue on!
Namon lets the invocations of the eight run through his mind as he prepares to unleash them upon unsuspecting foes...
Naia listens very carefully for armor clinking, feet padding or heavy breathing to know when other evildoers (apart from her!) enter the room...
Out of the corner of her eye, Naia sees four humanoid shapes very quietly creep into the hallway. They are not talking, but they certainly seem to be fervently gesturing to each other with various hand motions.
It seems that they have decided it is safe, and move down the hall towards the light...
Rameth charges out to E10 and takes a cut at the different looking one

oocrit threat
confirmation of threat for
Rameth leaves the knife in his foe and pops another one out of his spring loaded wrist sheathe
Rameth charges from his hiding place as the (quite obviously now) drow move past them, falling hook, line, and sinker for the trap.
His blade cuts deep into the back of one of the dark elves, nearly dropping him to the floor. His eyes fly wide with anger and horror as blood begins to spill from his mouth. He is alive, but just barely...
"BRIAN, G&%!@~NIT! YOU SWORE THERE WAS NOONE THIS COULD BE A TRAP! GAAAAH! KILL HIM! KILL HIM DEAD!"
Naia readies her shortspear as the drow pass. She moves into the corridor and by the light of yonder doorway throws her shortspear at the drow minion/scout/patroller in the left, moments before seeing Rameth rushing through the doorway moment s later to stick the Not Quite Big Bad Evil Guy.
Move action: Move to E7
Standard Action: Throw Spear D10
[ignore my PM Dajelly, I worked it out. Sending you another one]
Ealasaid 5 ft to D9 enter bloodrage and attack the D10 drow.
Namon emerges from his hiding place and makes an invocation to the eighth, in front of him appears a chilling apparition... It is the spirit of a damned soul from the eighth, it is beyond all sanity and memory and it is hungry...
Surprise Round
Naia - waits for the drow to pass and then rushes into the hall, throwing a spear at the one across the passage, wounding him badly!
Rameth - Springs out from behind the door, knives flashing. His blade cuts deep into the back of one of the dark elves, nearly dropping him to the floor.
Namon -
The drow's eyes grow wide in fear. It let's out a cry in Undercommon.
"It is one of the spirts of the citadel, come to claim its ghostly revenge!"
Ealasaid - Steps out of the doorway as Naia's spear strikes the dark elf, and then lets her flail crush the drow into oblivion, leaving it dead and bleeding on the ground.
Quartle -
Roland - bows his head in silent prayer to Iomedae.

Namon makes a brief invocation to the eighth and unleashes a ray of hellish frost at the frightened drow... As he let forth the invocation he spoke in Abyssal, the tongue of demonkind who were the masters of the drow.

Ealasaid gracefully steps over the fallen drow and moves to flank with Roland, flail flying in the air! The drow is so frightened that it actually manages to shiver out of the way!
Quartle - Leans up against the doorway, enjoying watching his party kill drow. He pulls out an apple and begins to munch.

Having seen this trick contribute to the deaths of his comrades, this drow manages to shake off the fearful effects Namon attempts to instill in his mind.
"You dare use the toungue of the demon princes on us, mage? You killed the captain, and our leader's will be most displeased. He was... a favorite pet... and you shall pay for your insolence!"

Ealasaid is not so lucky, and she takes the rapier point in her side, causing her 6 damage!
