Stand, provoke, 5 foot north, attack with flank.
Erin rolls off the floor and attempts to bring the mage down again.

damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Free Action Grapple: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (5) + 11 = 16

The gremlin manages to get some of Erin's thigh before she returns the favor with a vicious thrust to its kidneys. Her attack was not completely effective however.

Confusion: 1d100 ⇒ 17 Oh, wow! I actually have to look at the map now...

Tsusuko, knowing he has weak grip on his own mind, 5' northeast and try to Hair the squiggly-looking gremlin while flanking with Erin in hopes to cease the voices!

Miss Chance: 1d100 ⇒ 3

If it hits past whatever miss chance he's got going, I'll gonna try to Vampiric Touch him through his SR. Spell pen?: 1d20 + 6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 6 + 4 = 12

Tsusoku makes an attack using his hair, but hits the illusion. Ezerek keeps punching himself, and Ashur is still giving hornes to the other beast with horns.

The heavily injured tiny gremlin says, Grand ter. I pones te."

concentration check: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24
And he vanishes with a pop.

The two remaining gremlins, after seeing the Shonti intercept their arrows with his hammer, decide to withdraw through the wall. Not even bothering to stealth, you can see them climbing to the top of the wall, where they won't get trampled.

The caster, seeing as he doesn't want to get trampled either, casts a spell, and he disappears.

concentration check: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (20) + 11 = 31

stealth: 1d20 + 17 + 20 ⇒ (2) + 17 + 20 = 39

1d100 ⇒ 3

In a moment of lucidity, Ezrek hurls a fire/ice flask at the gremlin to the east.

Damage: 2d6 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (4, 3) + 3 + 1 = 11

Ashur goes after the one that dared trample him.

1d8 + 16 ⇒ (6) + 16 = 22

At least I keep my spell! Yay!

Confused?: 1d100 ⇒ 56

Tsusuko resumes punching himself! 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Erin, do you have a turn to post?

I shall direct a text at him, in case he's not doin' 'Merica Day Shenanigans.

Also, Spellcrafts? Can I do that confused?: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (7) + 12 = 191d20 + 12 ⇒ (17) + 12 = 29

Can I see any enemies? If not I will be holding until I can.

The enemys you can see have relocated to the top of the wall.

Erin drinks a potion while waiting for the mage to reappear.
CLW 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

Ezrek Miss Chance: 1d5 ⇒ 3--1=miss
Ezrek Miss Chance: 1d5 ⇒ 3--1=miss

Ezerek and Tanrov smash and burns a gremlin

You hear some noises from the visible gremlin and the invisible one.
"TRANK! UF EN QUI GROH CEL UP!"

The tiny gremlin makes a face, drops his bow, and tells you in common.
"King tell me that he gives up."

"Ush blan tek ros ken rlak ush Worik."

"He not attack you anymore if you take he up platform".

"Trek gon qur ten!"

"You keep he magic stuff if agree."

Ezrek looks around confusedly, trying to figure out who is speaking.

Is the confusion over?

Insanity 10%: 1d100 ⇒ 70 "You'll need us, Tsusoku; We can allow you to speak with them. Won't you accept our gift? We will only take over when needed. We will be waiting..."

Should the confusion be over, Benny Hill-style, The Tien man speaks up while putting dropping his martial stance. "I... know the king is capable at casting magics. I wish to speak with the king, but it will require some of my magics on myself. Would th... the king allow me to cast such a spell?" Will be casting Tonuges, should the king not object.

Confusion just ended.

"Thrak ten gor king, delinq quen cer tog. Asx zen zet zong zing xin dec, heick von ben zot." The gremlin points at Tsusoku.

"Vien." the invisible king responds.

"Fine. the gremlin translates.

Tsusuko braces himself again, for some unknown force.

Insanity 15%: 1d100 ⇒ 25

Now, when Tsusuko speaks, his voice is understood by all in their most native tongue. Assuming an almost acting-like role, he speaks. "Good king, your... subordinates. They... did not give me a name by which to call you. What... is it perchance?"

They go into delay

Like as if they took my name-asking to be offensive?

The invisible voice speaks out:

"ผมเป็นที่รู้จักกัน WEDDERWARK กษัตริย์แห่ง Gremlins. คุณบุกเข้ามาในดินแดนของฉัน Underdark. แต่ฉันยางของการต่อสู้นี้ดังนั้นผมจะโปรดปราน. ฉันจะค้าทางสันติวิธีในระดับบนในการแลกเปลี่ยนสำหรับบางส่วนของสมบัติของฉัน รวมทั้งกุญแจสำคัญที่จะไปต่อลง. "

Tsusuko ponders something. "What is it... how would he respond...?"

He cups his hands and responds with a bow. "We... I am not the one to simply allow you passage to the surface. Please allow w...me to deliberate with the others." He gathers everyone around into a nice, fireball-shaped circle. "What think you all?"

Ashur shakes his head as the confusion clears from his head. He looks to Ares. "Sorry, fellow horned one." He then gathers into the huddle with Tsusoku. "We just have to let him out? What do we get out of it? Besides not having to fight them?"

"Some... of his treasure."

"I guess we don't have much of a choice."

Tanrov pats his poor wounded mount.

"Do you think the dwarves will mind?"

"They are mages. They may be all out of finger twiddling powers for the time being." Erin whispers into the huddle.

Tsusuko watches his words, knowing everyone everywhere can understand them.

"I guess we don't have much of a choice."

"There... is always a choice."

"Do you think the dwarves will mind?"

"I... am not sure, I do not... understand their anger."

"I know, but it doesn't seem worth the effort to try to slag them. We'll just end up trying to kill each other again. Sorry about that Tan." Ashur says turning to the Shoanti and his mount.

Tanrov says nothing while he's busy trying to sooth his poor upset bull.

"Is he okay? I didn't mean to hurt him. Mind magic and all."

"Not really a whole lot you can do about that unfortunately." Erin adds, before bringing the conversation back to its original purpose. "I guess we could let them go if they tell us where all the people we are looking for went."

"Sounds like the best plan we got."

"They... want escouted to... the... the surface, I think."

Will they wait for us or accompany us down, before we escort them up? Ezrek asks, as things begin to make sense again. Eh, sorry about trying to punch you Ashur, though I don't think it would have hurt you much.

"Don't worry about it. Not the first time I've had a party member swing at me."

Seeming to have come to a consensus, Erin turns back to the group of tiny annoying creatures. "Have you seen anyone else pass through this way recently?"

Tsusuko translates for the king.

"Nope. No one came down here since I took over my kingdom."

You hear the sounds of ruffled clothes. A very small backpack drops from the wall.

"Treasure. You get the key to go down when you take me up.

Inside, the extremely well made backpack, you find two potions, two scrolls, a wand, a bottle of alchemist's fire, and a tangle foot bag.

"Alright, let's just get this over with."

After you all get back into the elevator, the Gremlin appears above you, hanging from the ceiling with two clawed feet, one hand holding what looks like one of the keys that goes into the dwarven lock, and looking tense as if ready to do something with the slightest provocation. You take the elevator back up. When the doors open on the first floor, the Gremlin drops the key, casts a spell, and vanishes from sight.

"ฟรี! ฟรีที่ล่าสุด! ตอนนี้ให้ไปดูสิ่งที่ของเล่นคนมีหนวดมีเคราทำเมื่อเร็ว ๆ นี้และทำลายพวกเขา!"

"Alright, now let's get back to what we were doing." Ashur says with much annoyance.

Preparing the next couple maps. Will post sometime tomorrow.

CLW spam time.

"Yes. Although I still think we should have dealt with those things in a more permanent way." Erin responds while leading the way back into the mines.

As the things scurry away, Tsusuko notes something distantly. "They... are going to break the dwarves' things. We... I wanted to stop them, but... they resist magic and were hard to see..."
