"We are here as guards. No one likes us much so we don't like them. There are a lot more ahead." He then turns back into a rat and scurries through a hole in the wall.

"We are here as guards. No one likes us much so we don't like them. There are a lot more ahead." He then turns back into a rat and scurries through a hole in the wall.
"Wonderful. Well, better make sure we are prepared.
Galerio takes out his scroll of mage armor and uses it.

Hagrym |

Hagrym takes his spot at the head of the party, and starts progressing on towards the rats, assuming the guides indicate there is still time to do so safely.

Naomi Chadwick |
well that was really unpleasant Naomi took her place in the middle of the pack, then she observed "Is everyone ok, no one was bitten right? I don't want any of you boys to come down with anything odd. I realize Turvijagal scouts ahead with Ulfgard and Hagrym anchors the front,: Turning to Jarvis, the non-dwarf fighter type she asks, "Jarvis with the rats able to get behind us like that do you think it would be smart to take the back to protect those of us who are a little, well, squishy?" She smiles knowing it will be humbling for Jarvis to take the back of the line.

Hagrym |

Hagrym nods at Turv after he sees the room. "You want to check it out, Turv? I can bust in and announce our presence to everyone, but a more delicate touch might be smart," he whispers.

The carved tunnel passes through the window of a large warehouse turned upside-down during the cataclysm. The room’s floor — formerly its ceiling — is lined with four rafters that slow movement by half across the room. Garbage and other junk cover the floor, but the rafters jut three feet out of the refuse. Rusted blades and makeshift weapons fi ll the trash heaps.
Eight other windows in the room open onto small burrows leading into the earth. Dirt and rock spill in over the upside-down window frames. A door on the ceiling (formerly the floor) is the only other exit. A knotted rope of rags and cloth scales the wall to the door 20 feet overhead.
Hundreds of rats rummage and frolic through the trash.

Turvijagal |

"It looks mostly safe." Turvijagal whispers to the others behind him. "Watch your step, though. This is a warren of debris."
He then moves foreward carefully (15 feet, at half speed), staying stealthy and alert. Scimitar drawn, as usual.
stealth: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21
perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23

Jarvis Ward |

"Yes that is probably a good idea Naomi, maybe I will still get a chance to fry a rat or two from the back."

Naomi Chadwick |
I knew he had potential, maybe I should stop picking on him... naaa Naomi smiles and nods at Jarvis' response, "Just don't get lost back there ok." turning she follows the thief and dwarves into the upside down room, sending her dancing lights around the room so they could see into the nooks and crannies of the small burrows, as she avoided the larger heaps of weapons. Keeping a keen eye out she asks Turv. Turv, do you see anything interesting?"
aid another: Turv. perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23

Eight of the rats turn into were rats and attack:

Good time for that mage armor Galerio! Looks like only Jarvis was hit.

Naomi Chadwick |
They just spring up from nowhere! Naomi, sword and shield in hand, watches the were rats appear as if out of thin air, "well boys, we may have found the infestation!" she keeps her sword and shield at the ready, dodging the dual attack. What song do I know about killing vermin...
init: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22

"Poor" Cyric |

Is it work risking two of us losing our action for a chance to make 7 out of 8 rats lose their action? I can channel nausea, but can only exclude all but two of us from it. It's a will save.

Turvijagal |

initiative: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
And when it's his turn, a predictable action
Turvijagal will slash at the wererat that attacked him with his scimitar.
scimitar: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 281d6 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
scimitar confirm: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 231d6 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
Good start

Galerio |

initiative: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20
Galerio will attempt to perforate the rat that attacked him.
crossbow: 1d20 + 5 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 5 + 1 + 1 = 26
damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
crossbow confirm crit: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17
crit damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Jarvis Ward |

initiative: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

brvheart |

init Ulfgard: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

Naomi Chadwick |
Naomi begins singing a Halfling jig about a three-legged cat called 'the Ratter' to inspire the boys. "There was a yellow tabby cat that liked to eat some rat..." As she stepped back to make sure none could flank Jarvis or Cyric. I think 'catfolk' call this song 'home sweat home' but I believe the lyrics are a little different
standard action, 5 ft step.

Galerio |

Galerio drops his crossbow and attempts to blast the rat with freezing protoplasm.
Concentration Check casting defensively DC 17: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14
ranged touch attack Snowball: 1d20 + 5 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 5 + 1 + 1 = 21

brvheart |

Galerio you have acted this round or I can keep this for next round.

Galerio |

Galerio you have acted this round or I can keep this for next round.
It is what I will most likely try to do on my coming turn unless something happens to my target or myself.

"Poor" Cyric |

After Jarvis and Shandar take their actions:
Cyric steps southeast and concentrates, toying with a small decorative green bottle hanging from a chain around his throat. A decidedly alcoholic smell begins to waft through the area, like passing by a vagrant who spent the night on the floor of a tavern. To some, the smell seems to turn from an odor into a feeling of actual inebriation.
Channel Negative Energy Damage, no save: 1d6 ⇒ 5
Able to selectively channel and exclude everyone but Shandar. It affects all the wererats except for the one in the corner near Turv. All affected take the damage no save and must make a DC 15 Will Save or be nauseated for 1 round (can only take a move action). If Shandar is going to fail the will save, I will give him misfortune to let him reroll it.

brvheart |

will save wererat: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22

will save wererat: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12
Two are nauseated.

"Poor" Cyric |

At least I forced those good rolls out on the rats lol. And did 5 damage to all of them. If Shandar doesn't need misfortune on his will save I will use it on the other rat near me that is not nauseated to try and nauseate it as well (reroll)

brvheart |

Will save Shandar: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23
Shandar attacks the nauseated wererat next to him with his staff:
staff: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10 damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Jarvis Ward |

Concentrating on the Wererat next to him, Jarvis begins casting a spell, his hand glowing with arcane energy and flowing up his blade. Taking a 5' step down to the next group of rats, Jarvis attacks!
Concentration (Arcane Mark)d/c 15: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20
Scimitar: 1d20 + 6 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 6 - 2 + 1 = 141d6 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 4 + 1 = 6
