.......... Dwarven Ruins Basement - Area 1 Monument Chamber ..........

Ruthviren spins around with his hammer in response to the charging kobold and destroys the creatures head with a mighty swing.

Bhoors quickly changes target and send an arrow thru the other kobold's heart.

The last kobold quivers on the ground begging for it's life. "No Kill!! No Kill!!"

.......... Combat Over!! ..........

Bhoors looks about the room to make sure things are as secure as possible. He turns his attention to the corpses searching them.

perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26

"No kill sounds good kobold. What is this all about?"

Aux goes with an open ended question.....I know diplomacy takes time, but I will go ahead and start rolling...

1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Maybe not......

Bhoors stowes the coins and gems leaving the other gear behind.

Farid kneels down to the Kobold, "Do you have the human children?"

Bhoors makes regular checks looking out each doorway.

Ruthviren will take up watch at the north door.

Serila's sleep spell goes off, covering the only surviving kobold.
DC 15 Will to resist

"We'd better not interrogate it here, its yelling may attract more. Let's drag him upstairs first?"

"If we are going upstairs missing sentries is not as alarming as corpse sentries."

The kobold falls asleep. Roleplay what the group would like to do with the kobold.

"Leave him then. We are better off moving forward now if they have a watch system of any sort soon enough others will come but there are so many ways to go..."

"I'd say move on. Tie it up. Can we have a look at he doors, see if we can find a track of the children?"

Serila will remove the kobold's belt and ties him up with it. She then stuffs his mouth with the clothes of another kobold, and uses the other's belt to tie the sleeping kobold's mouth shut.

"Okay, where first? There?" she asks, pointing at the room closest to Aux.

Ok which way guys?

If no one else has another suggestion, then I say we head the way I suggested we'd go.

"No sentry to the south. They may not use that way."

.......... Crucible of Offering ..........

At the center of this large stone chamber is a deep pit filled with molten slag and sizzling blood that casts a hellish red gleam on the walls. Three narrow chutes open in the ceiling directly above the pit. The air here is oppressively hot and thick with ash.

Serila, I am going to assume you have your Dancing Lights Spell up at all times.

DOuble doors to the north, then?

DOuble doors to the north, then?

Yes sir. The pre-written description of the room forgets the exits most of the time. I will try to remember to add it in the future.

Correction I meant east but its irrelevant. I assumed up was north. but the legend is west.

Bhoors looks around the hot room. Doors here.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

Farid heads to the door and checks it for traps.

Perception 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

One of these days I will make one of these checks!

@GM: Yes, seems like keeping them up is a sensible thing to do :)

Serila follows Farid and helps him check the doors.

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

"Farid, you're just looking at that tile over there, but I think we should really spend more time looking at this tile over here."

"This looks worrisome....we could end up being dropped from chutes into this channel pit. Maybe we can cover it in some way."

"This might be why they had no sentry guarding this doorway."

.......... Dwarven Ruins Basement - Area 2 Crucible of Offering ..........

A pallid, slimy, worm-like creature the size of a human, its mouth a sickening tangle of tentacles and hooked jaws drops out of the flickering shadows of the vents above attacking Farid as he inspects the door. The creature snaps with its beak tearing flesh from the barbarian's shoulder. Farid takes 3 damage!!

"What now has befallen Farid!"

Farid? A big ugly thing is trying to eat you again!!!

Round 1

"Down, up, no matter, these creatures of the north no matter how they hunt know an exotic southern meal when they smell one".

The Barbarian takes a 5' step away and swings his greataxe up at the thing.

Greataxe Attack 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8
Greataxe Damage 1d12 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

But his aim it seems is as poor as his Perception...

What gives Farid? You are not even trying....maybe the thing has poisoned him and sapped his strength!"

"Be ready at range, friends."

"I don't want it to die before it has had a chance to sample all of us my friend..."

.......... Dwarven Ruins Basement - Area 2 Crucible of Offering ..........

The creature snaps at Farid again taking more flesh from the barbarian's shoulder and lashes out with all four tentacles but none of the slimy limbs find purchase. Farid takes 5 damage!!

Bhoors takes a few steps forward and fires arrows in rapid succession.

longbow 2: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

"Bhoors your aim is true. Though it seems the monster likes Farid too much!"

Handaxe (+1) 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 161d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8 S

Ruthviren moves to the other side of Serila and strikes:

1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
1d12 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

.......... Dwarven Ruins Basement - Area 2 Crucible of Offering ..........

Bhoors fires two arrows straight at the beast both hitting it in the left flank but not sinking into the creature and fall harmlessly to the floor.

Auxavier charges into the room slicing at the ugly thing with his axe chopping off a bit of flesh. The creature turns its head and hisses at you in pain.

Ruthviren moves around the others swinging his might hammer with great accuracy. The blow lands solidly on the creatures right flank but seems to bounce off leaving just a little mark on its scales.

"What ugly tentacled snake is this?"

"It is a Grick hard to kill with out magic."

Do I think fire would have a chance?

Do I think fire would have a chance?

Normal fire will not work.

"My handaxe has magic, and has wounded the beast, let me take it straight on, and should I find myself sore wounded, I will pass the axe off."

"We can flank, we can aid...you're not alone."

A bolt of fire appears in Serila's open hand. "Farid, duck!"

Serila throws the scorching bolt over Farid's shoulder, at the oversized insect.

Fire Bolt: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22 Fire: 1d6 ⇒ 4
Confirm crit: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15 Fire: 1d6 ⇒ 6

.......... Dwarven Ruins Basement - Area 2 Crucible of Offering ..........

The beast snarls in pain once again as Serila blasts it right in the beak with magical fire leaving nasty burn marks on all four tentacles.

Round 2

Despite the calls of his allies, Farid stands in against the Beast, Better I am the target than they.

He continues to swing his axe hoping the Beast will focus on him and not Aux.

Greataxe Damage 1d12 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
