Well, Malik didn't notice you....
Consider this part of the roll above, it's happening about the same time....
Perception DC 10 (considering the intervening distance....):

Ward' |

Well looks like Ward' is on the ball even if I'm not
From his position as rearguard.
"Someones approaching from behind," spoken as a whisper to Mailk.

Rethvian Ardimai |

"Secret doors" Cal whispers to Reth as she makes her way to one area where the stone isn't quite right and runs her fingertips over it, doublechecking where it is and its size.
Realizing he was just looking at that area and dismissed the cracks in the wall as simply naturally occuring, "Ahhhh.....yes, I see it now. Well....I'm guessin something they want hidden is something we want to see, in this place. Shall I open it?"

![]() |

Ath: Perception....1d20+5=9
As Cal and Reth focus on one of the secret doors, the other opens, and unnoticed by you, two small figures dart out, wielding crossbows, they fire at Reth(hit AC 25 for 5 points of damage and cause a DC12 Fort save) and Ward (hit AC 15 for 3 points of damage and cause a DC12 Fort save).
You are flatfooted in the surprise round...Their movement was prior to the surprise round, and went unnoticed be everyone it seems.....
Init checks please...

Reth hisses in pain as the bolt bites into his back and he begins to feel the poison course through his veins. Cursing he spins arouns with his bow in hand and takes a bead on his assailants.....

Just waiting for Ath, and Malik to post init...
Saamer, as I said when we were chatting this morning, I'm leaving your current actions wide open, but if you could roll init, for me so we have it when the time comes, I'd apreciate it.

Saamer del'toriin |

init 1d20=16 ((im on a work comp so ill have to get back with whether it has a modifier))

![]() |

Sadly, I think Atherton/Arctaris is no longer with us or on these boards even. It's been a month and a half since his last post anywhere. Also, posting just to keep our thread alive as it only takes a couple of days for them to drop off now. Makin me nervous.
Yup, not good, he has a while though, unless I kill Atherton off, while I run him through this dungeon....I'll make a proper post tonight, just not had chance since I got home....

![]() |

Atherton moves quick as a flash, pulling his crossbow and firing.
His bolt though glances off the first Derro's studded leather armour, clattering to the floor ineffectively.
Malik
If someone wants to run Ath, that would be a big help. Until he comes back, of course.

Assume you can hear them, it's an echoy cave after all

Malik steps forward as he pulls his crossbow, moving a little closer (now withing 30ft) to the vermin derro and cracks off a bolt from his crossbow (sniper fashion...)
The two Derro again fire their small crossbows at Ath and Reth (Hitting AC 14 and 10 for 4 points of damage, respectively, with the same fort saved DC12 required if they do damage)...
Reth...

Rethvian Ardimai |

Nope, they miss me.
As Reth takes a bead on one of the derro he quickly discovers just how much that poison coursing through him is causing him problems. Unable to pull the tightly strung bow back it's full extent causes him to shake with the exhertion and throws of his aim.
-2 penalty included both for rapid shot and having strength lower than the rating on the bow.
To hit and damage: 1d20+4=5, 1d8+2=9, 1d20+4=12, 1d8+2=5
Cal's up...

Calandra Oriana |

Reaching into her component pouch Calandra retrieves some fine pink sand that she places in her palm and blows gently in the direction of the derro, taking care to avoid her companions and whispers a few words to complete the spell.
Sleep spell, effects 4HD of creatures and it's a DC 16 will save to negate.

While the second of the two Derro to exit the tunnel stays standing, his fellow's eyes flutter, and close, and he slumps to the ground, his wounds weeping slowly....
Saamer hearing the battle rushes to the cavern where he sees the battle going forth. (((I figure with my initiative I should be able to rush to someones aid and it would be my init.)))
Your init, puts you right after CAl. Perfect. Do your bestest!

Ward' |

![]() |

As the sounds of hold music die away
Ward' moves forward and deals a thundering cross with his warclub to the derro that remains standing.
The Derro staggers under the massive blow but does not go down...
Ath

Atherton Dram |

Atherton fires at the Derro Attack 22 Dmg 3, turning as he reloads to face the newcomer and raising it to face level.
Atherton eyes the man in clerical vestments suspiciously "Far enough."
Addressing the others, he says "Think he has what we need? Or should I shoot him."

![]() |

Malik snaps off another shot with his crossbow, but the bolt clatters against the wall uselessly.
The remaining Derro glances worriedly at his companion, and then bolts into the doorway he came out of...
Reth

Rethvian Ardimai |

Reth curses and chases the fleeing derro.
If I can take a 30' foot move and see the creature I'll take a shot otherwise I'll double move hopefully overtaking it.
If needed to hit and damage for arrow: 1d20+6=12, 1d8+2=3

![]() |

Bolts suggests fleeing but I take it its actually a withdraw action there by not getting to thump it again
Sorry for the delay, boards were own every time I went near them today.
This is my mistake, I had forgotten Ward was in combat. He does indeed flee, and you do indeed get that AAO (Reth's Atk would have missed anyway....)

damn didn't confirm, but smacky smacky
Squish
As the Derro makes for the door, ward brings his club down on the back of it's head, with a resounding smash that echos around the room...
Two dead Derro. What do you do now?

Reth nods to Ward' again, "Seems your carryin both our weight on this trip." He picks up and examines a derro bolt, "Poisoned. I thought so. Can feel it coursin through me, Cal would you mind takin a look at that wound in my back?" Having not seen the new comer as of yet, "These hidden passages are interestin. I would recommend seein where they go."
Second Fortitude save: 1d20+4=5 Well, if you do a heal check I think it replaces that abysmal save.

![]() |

The second fort save should be after 1 min, so if you get healed in reasonable time, you won't deteriorate further...
Cal looks a little suspiciously at the newcomer, "If you are a cleric, can you do something about This man's injuries?" She points at Reth with her dagger...

Rethvian Ardimai |

"I am a cleric of Irori" Saamer replies plainly "and I would just like to help." he puts his hands up to show he means no harm. "My name is Saamer Del'Toriin. I can help those who have injuries." and then stands there waitng for the man to put down his weapon
With a wary look, "Odd place to be wanderin priest. How 'bout you tell us how you came to be here."
