"Grotesque! I also don't trust any dead bodies around here!"

"After our encounters thus far, I am thoroughly inclined to agree with you. I shall blast the corpse with disrupting energies that are only harmful to the undead. It will respond in consternation or continue to lie inert. Prepare yourselves."

Cast Disrupt Undead

damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Shaking his head Ulfgard whispers... "Humans!"

"Perhaps we have interrupted the necromancer' evil plans for this corpse! Praise Dwerfater!"

do it i dont trust the dead ones ill be ready to burn it also.

that's a very sad picture Naomi looks at the maiden Evasheen, trying to remember anything she knows about a possible missing maiden, and casting detect magic she turns and asks Uthala, "Uthala dear, do you remember any news about a missing Maiden?"

knowledge: I would assume history or local?: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14

knowledge local: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

knowledge local: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18 made mistake on my plus

knowledge (local): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

"I don't remember anything about a missing maiden. Must have been a LONG time ago, if that's her here!"

"And who said that I am missing? Am I not still lovely?" says a voice almost disembodied from the corpse, but still emanating from it.

did Naomi detect any magic?

Yes, she can detect magic from her/it.

Faint necromancy;

well that was very unexpected smiling at the creatures response Naomi moves to the front, ever so slightly bowing gently "Greetings miss, My apologies, I assumed that since you were down here that you were missing from up there. Where are my manors I am Naomi Chadwick from Bard's Gate and these are my associates, we have been asked to patrol the sewers and remove any infestations. May I have the privilege of making your acquaintance."

diplomacy: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16 boo, I no longer care for these dice!

Cyric chimes in that they are pleased to make her acquaintance. misfortune on the diplomacy roll for naomi

Cyric diplomacy: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (2) + 17 = 19

"Infestation... hmmm, you seek my husband."

'well that was blunt, I wonder if Hagrym can tell if she is evil or not' Naomi looks from the undead matron to Hagrym, then back "Your Husband, Miss? Could you explain more?"

Hagrym looks at the others. If she was an evil undead, she couldn't leave and they had to slay her. And if the necromancer was her husband...he would have to deal with both of them.

"Occan, the necromancer."

If you attempt to detect evil on her Hagrym, she does not detect as so.

"And what is it that you think I can do for you? I have a menace of my own currently. Recently, a necromancer moved into the far side of the sewers, a section long abandoned and left mostly in ruins. Worse still, undead minions following the necromancer sealed off entry into the area, slaying the scouts I sent to spy on the sorceress."

With that Renneth smiles, "My child what you are needing is the blessing of Ayianna. I am the High Priestess of Ayianna and can provide that in return for your assistance with my necromancer problem. Do we have a deal?"

'ok she's talking instead of trying to kill us, that's a start, I wonder if she is the sorceress that the priestess spoke of' Naomi smiles at the 'woman' "Occan, the necromancer, we assumed that was his profession and did I understand right, your name is Evasheen?" looking at the woman Noami takes a gamble, "that is correct, right? Evasheen. Do you mind if I call you Evasheen? You are right, Evasheen we were sent to remove the undead from the sewers and to see that the necromancer has left. How that happens though can be a matter of discussion. Would you and your husband speak to us about leaving you new found home? A parlay certainly wouldn't hurt anything would it?"

"I no longer speak to the controlling sob. He poisoned me and I am now as I am."

How very curious looking at the lady Naomi sympathetically, asks, "Can you explain what he did to you, perchance we can help undo it. Or possibly we can introduce you to the priestess who sent us, she may be able to assist you." Thinking for a moment Naomi adds "Also, If you husband did this to you, I don't think I would trust him to parlay, would you be willing to tell us about his lair? If we capture him could he undo what he has done?"

"I daresay there's no love loss between you and your husband, m'lady. Can you help us against Occan? With information, perhaps?"

diplomacy: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (18) - 1 = 17

Now THAT is a fluke of a roll, if ever there was one! Especially with Turvijagal's less-than-sparkling personality!

"Do you think he has a cure for the poison he gave you? So that your condition might be reversed?"

"Kill my husband and come back and release me so I can rest."

"Hrmppf. Sounds like a plan to me!"

"We'd be happy to kill the old boy, Ma'am! Would you be able to tell us how we can find him? Or any weaknesses he might have? The more we know before we fight him, the better our chances of killing him and helping you find peace."

"They are off to the east, he and Kavali."

"Tell us more about this Kavali character, so we know what we are getting into..."

Sense Motive 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21

Kavali, the wizard and the other necromancer. Occan is a cleric."

Naoomi nods her head in agreement with Hagrym questions, 'I wonder if Kavali is the sorceress' Naomi listens carefully to Evasheen's answers.

aid another: sense motive: 1d20 ⇒ 1 hhhmmm, not a lot of help

'so in essence we are facing two enemies not one' Naomi looks at the woman confused, "The priestess mentioned a sorceress, I assumed that would have been Kavali, are you the sorceress or is there someone else?"

"This is good news. Sort of. At least we now know we have two enemies, not just the one."

"Anything you can tell us about well protected they are?"

sense motive: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

I'm pretty sure she's on the up and up!

"She is Kavali. I have been here for a long time so I cannot help with their defenses."

'The jerk did this to her and she wants revenge, can't say that I blame her' Naomi nods, "We will go kill him then, is there anything else you can tell us or anything else we can do for you before we head east?"

She seems to be prevented from speaking more as if something is stopping her.

'this seems like a very sad situation indeed'Naomi gives Evasheen a simple bow of the head and turns to the team, "Well what do you boys," realizing she forgot the new addition "and Uthala, think? Shall we go finish what we came here to do?"

turning she sends her dancing lights ahead, back to the flooded corridor, waiting for the group to start moving that direction, she stays in the middle of the pack, rapier and shield ready.

"I've been ready for this. Let's go," Hagrym calls out, ready to head to the east and get that necromancer.

"Sounds like East it is!"

lead on good thief, lead on!

The tunnel dips under a pool of brackish water before surfacing on the other side. This descending bend is a natural trap that prevents tidewater from entering the relatively dry section of the sewers farther along the passageway.

@ Naomi: Thief? Moi? :'(

@ brvheart: I assume we just passed through the dip in the passage you mentioned and are back in dryness again.

"This looks like it might be a passage East" (room U3)
perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25

Room U3 us where she is, the passage east is room U-5

folks are we in regular marching order?

Naomi begins to hum as she follows the boys south to the central area U2then turning into the eastern corridor, "Yes Turvijagal the corridor we just left is running north and south and this new corridor is running east"

brv I realize that U2 is flooded, is U5 where the brackish water is? And do we fully submerge going through it?

Yes, it is U5 and after pool it is much drier.

Hagrym will take the front with Turv on the march.

Area U-6 Steam and the hiss of sizzling water fill this chamber. The sewer passage has collapsed into a huge underground sinkhole. A pit in the center of the room swallowed the walls, passage and earth to create a 60-foot-diameter room. The slight funnel-shaped room slopes inward toward the pit. On the left side of the room, the sinkhole unearthed a
portion of a hall to a sunken structure.

Turvijagal will move up stealthily to the entrance. Scimitar drawn.
stealth: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (20) + 20 = 40 (unencumbered)

He's got enough magic and skill. But that's still an amazing result

And then looks to see if there are any nasty surprises about.
perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12

Galerio takes this moment to quietly use his scroll of mage armor.

The 30-foot-deep pit is filled with boiling, muddy water that connects to an underwater cave system that empties into the sea. A massive skeletal snake-like beast burns in eternal fire near the pit.

Turvijagal backs up carefully and tells the others what he's seen.
stealth: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (7) + 20 = 27
