Right, so climb checks to get up to the cavern with the Derro, DC10, 2 checks each

Armor check penalty. Hoo boy.
Climb1: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (15) - 1 = 14
Climb2: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (17) - 1 = 16

O_O

Agia is up!

Durgen will need some help with his -2 to climb. Rope anyone?

"Sorry, guys, I left my rope at the well. Unless somebody untied it and brought it with, that's ten gold gone," Agia says glumly.

More like its the only way you know how to get back to the surface...

"I have rope"

Climb1d20 + 8 - 4 ⇒ (5) + 8 - 4 = 9

Climb1d20 + 8 - 4 ⇒ (11) + 8 - 4 = 15

Xochti takes one end of the rope her Uncle holds out, ties it about her waist and climbs.

Check1:1d20 + 4 - 5 ⇒ (18) + 4 - 5 = 17(Armor check penalty)

Check2:1d20 + 4 - 5 ⇒ (16) + 4 - 5 = 15(Armor check penalty)

Deftly working her way up to join Agia. She looks around for something/where to tie her end of the rope too.

Perception:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10

Don't you love it when the dice roller allows the character to make a task look easy? :P

Annnd with a '1'? She's probably trying to tie the rope to Agia. :P

Toby tries to climb up too.
CLimb 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 201d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 221d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

Aden climbs up to half-way point having slipped at the start, Xochti and Madwand have managed to climb all the way up, Xochti finds a "solid" stalactite to tie the rope around and hang down for her companions to climb up, making the DC to climb up down to 5

Durgen will take 10 in climb for an 8

Climb the rest of the way1d20 + 8 - 4 ⇒ (6) + 8 - 4 = 10

Alright Durgen and Aden are up

So lets keep things moving, those who are up, make a perception check

Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12

Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Durgen

Agia

"There are worms in those crystals at the top of the cavern, I hope those aren't what are inside the people down there."

"There are? Inside those pretty crystals? Nice spot, Durgen. Let's avoid being underneath them."

Does it look anything like the crystal that sealed the entrance to the basement cave?

Kinda, they looks similar but have obvious differences

Climb:1d20 - 2 ⇒ (6) - 2 = 4
Climb:1d20 - 2 ⇒ (14) - 2 = 12
Climb:1d20 - 2 ⇒ (1) - 2 = -1
Climb:1d20 - 2 ⇒ (9) - 2 = 7
As Hashar tries to climb up...

Ok Hashar falls down twice trying to climb up and takes 3d6 ⇒ (6, 2, 3) = 11 non-lethal damage before managing to get up the top of the cave

Aden looks up at the nice lights, but any relationship between glowing rocks and the poor souls downstairs baffles him. So? Onward, yes?

Perception:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24

At her Uncle's words Xochti frowns. "I say we smash the rocks and break the cycle." She points to the ceiling with her hammer, though frowning as she tries to think of a way to enact her plan.

Hmmm...any one got a ranged 'elemental' attack? Gon'a have to pick me up some spell casting, me thinks. *Ponders*

"And let the worms at us? Are you crazy, woman?"

Xochti hefts her hammer and looks at Agia,

"Better the worms and us...than the worms and children..." She replies gravely.

"If the worms take us, there will be nobody to save the children, and nobody who even knows. We can deal with these things later, when we know more about them, lady dwarf."

Xochti frowns, probably not happy at leaving a foe at their backs...but moves to stand beside/behind her uncle and follow his lead.

Agia nods. "Keep a good eye on them, though. Don't want them dropping on our heads unexpectedly. Did you happen to bring an umbrella?"

Xochti frowns and looks to her Uncle with a questioning eyebrow raised. Though she does keep glancing up to keep tabs on the crystals and their occupants.

Okay, lets go get Derro!

Xochti

Alright, as you move onwards you enter a tall cylindrical room, it is filled with thousands upon thousands of jars with strange things inside them. there is a table at the centre, upon which a pale humanoid dressed in tight black leather is cutting up another prisoner, besides him is a table tray with 3 jars. The pale creature hasn't noticed you go in.

(O_o)

Xochti moves to take a five foot step forwards and prepares to 'lay the hammer down'.

Perception:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16

Xochti

also to note, the Derro is about 30 feet away from the entrance

Xochti freezes in mid step...

"Oh....bottersnipe!" She swears softly. Her emotions getting the better of her caution.

Seeing the horror inflicted upon the bound prisoner Aden sees red.

Without a word the Impulsive Cavalier CHARGES the Derro, brining hos longsword down in a mighty chop.
2 hand power attack, Charge vs Flatfooted1d20 + 9 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 9 - 1 + 2 = 16
2 hand PA damage1d8 + 6 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 6 + 3 = 17

Aden slices through the Derro in a clean slice, but as soon as its decapitated head lands on the floor, it reverts to that of a head of a gnome that has gone through bleaching, the floor instantly soaking up the blood

Agia advances carefully to the table to check on the prisoner and the things in the jars.

Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
Heal: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26

Agia

Xochti gasps as Aden leaps forwards and deals with the Derro. Only to watch the figure turn from twisted Dwarf into a deceased Gnome. As the blood washes over the floor and then just as quickly vanishes Xochti cries out.

"There's something under the floor!" Her language changes and she shifts her stance, all the while staring down and now, hefting her hammer, awaiting for things to go from weird to worse.

"This person... gods.. should be dead. We were too late. But it's not dead..." Agia gags.

"This is an abomination! And if something is under the floor everyone needs to step carefully"

The ground beneth your feet shakes slightly before it starts to crack slightly. Some of the jars have fallen to the ground and a rather foul green cloud has risen from them

"If it wakes up, I don't think stepping is going to matter that much Uncle." Xochti warns. Readying an action to smack the thing if it does rise.

"At least it won't be my foot it eats first"

:P

Xochti continues to heft her hammer and nods in agreement with her Uncle as she awaits developments.

So no-one is going to do anything against the noxious chemical cloud?

Durgen will back away from the cloud Not much else I can do there

Well if people stand their ground as supposed to run...
