[PFS] GM kuey's Thornkeep - The Forgotten Laboratory (2-4) (Inactive)

Game Master kuey

Rogar enters a more agile stance and lets Reese's song fuel his rage.

"I'll get you, you slimy bastard!"

Move action to gain Dodge via Martial Flexibility, then attack the ooze.

Attack, PA, IR: 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 8 - 1 + 1 = 13
Damage, PA, IR (magic & slashing): 1d10 + 5 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 5 + 3 + 1 = 11

Stabilize DC 18: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23

Buff: Archaeologist's Luck and Fate's Favored Trait, last round active with Lingering Performance: +2 luck bonus to attacks, damage, saves, and skill checks.

Witnessing the destruction wreaked upon Ivar, Gitano gulps a silent plea to Desna for aid.

He flicks his wrist, attempting to pierce the ooze's heart. Assuming the creature has one.

"Dal polso, dal nodo della mano!"

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 111d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

If the ooze attacks Gitano...

This... Thing is tougher than I thought. The rage induced from this one's singing.. It is not at all like my own.

Zavubak stares as Ivar is bloodied and pummeled. "Fiend, enough of this madness. I'm just getting warmed up." He hones his anger momentarily and arches his head forward, bring the axe down and under the ooze and pulling it cleanly up through its body.

Orc 2x axe, IR: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 241d8 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Rogar's fury drives his powerful stroke as it chops away another large chunk of the ooze. Gitano's clumsy strike nonetheless still pierces the slow moving ooze, puncturing yet another hole it is mass. Finally, Zavubak's axe parts the remaining ooze mass in half. Both halves convulse in the oily water, before finally losing form altogether, dispersing harmlessly into the sludgy water.

Combat Over!

Immediately, Baied activates her wand, which heals over some of Ivar's acidic burns but it is insufficient to bring him back to consciousness. (-1/30)

While some of the party administer to the faithful companion, the rest of you search the room carefully.

Gitano also sets out to examine the two exits from this room. Both are simple wooden doors, and neither the double doors to the south or the single one to the east are locked nor appear trapped. Also, from neither does he hear anything of note.

Will pause a while for you to heal up, buff, etc. Next stop is the eastern exit, unless you wish to change.

Rogar gives Baied a silent nod of appreciation and draws his own wand to tend to Ivar's wounds.

CLW x6: 6d8 + 6 ⇒ (8, 2, 4, 2, 5, 5) + 6 = 32

Perception: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (2) + 11 = 13

"That could've gone better, but also much worse. Let's trudge on. Which way is best, Gitano?"

Rogar calls upon Deadeye's Lore to guide him through the dungeon.

Ivar gets back up and vigorously shakes the slime off himself.

Gitano scratches Ivar behind his ears. "Who's a good boy? Well done, my canine friend."

He grins at the slime-covered half-orc, "Zavubak, you have a nice axe. Great cleavage, too."

After checking both doors, he announces "I found no traps around either door, and neither is locked. Didn't hear anything beyond either one."

He utters a brief incantation and holds his hands up in fist binoculars, scanning the room for magical auras. Detect magic.

Then Gitano joins the others in searching the room.
Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16

He examines the pearl found in the sludge.
Spellcraft: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14

"This pearl is magical with a strong transmutation aura, but I'm not sure what it is. Perhaps, one of you can identify it?"

Zav rolls his eyes. "Cleavage? Heh..." He isn't exactly sure how to respond to Gitano. "You are no stranger to weapon use, yet the style and grace you use your sword with leaves something to be desired. Raw power," he says with a smug grin.

Does he mock me?

"It is obviously magical. Perhaps the .. almost elf can give us a better idea of just what it might be," he adds, looking at Baied sideways.

I have still to train into the use and identification of magical items. I can try, but I wont be sure I'm right

Spellcraft, Untrained: 1d20 ⇒ 15

Baied, you can't use Spellcraft untrained.
Don't forget you can take 10 for skill checks outside combat. And Baied can lay guidance.
Gitano, sorry forgot about the detect magic SOP.

Within the room itself, the glowing large bauble hanging from the centre of the room emanates faint evocation magic. Nothing else of note within the room is magical nor through the wooden door to the east. However, through the double doors to the south, Gitano senses two faint magical auras about 30 and 40 feet away from the entrance. Not having sight of it, however, he is unable to determine what kind of aura it is.

Electing to leave that for later, the party turns to the eastern door and Rogar, leading the way, pushes it open and steps through a short passage in a room, followed closely behind by the rest.

A wall of rusted iron bars dominates the northern half of this room, dividing the area up into three individual cells. In the southern half of the room is a grisly looking table bedecked with manacles and blood. On the wall behind the table hang gruesome, blood-stained tools and other implements. Wooden doors stand on the east and west sides of the room, and a hall to the southeast winds upstairs. The room is unlit but the glowing orb from the previous room bathes this area in dim-lighting. Room is in dim light unless someone brings other lights sources.

Inside each of the 6 cells, a goblin is trapped within. But what kind of goblin are they! Some of the have a third arm growing out from their chest. One has giant sharp teeth that barely fits in his mouth. One is completely covered by what appears to be sticky gooey slime. And one even has what appears to be tentacles for its legs!

All of them start screeching and howling as soon as they see Rogar enter the room. That distract you briefly until you see some quick movement at the other end of the room. A vaguely humanoid flying creature about the size of a cat that looks more like a toothy, winged devil is throws what appears to be a switch on the wall, and all the cell doors open!

Gitano informs the party, "I didn't open the double doors at the southern end of the first chamber, but I detected a couple of magical auras through them, both 30-40 feet beyond."

As Rogar leads the party east, the room beyond erupts in screeching. His human eyes have trouble seeing in the dim light. Gitano utters an arcane phrase and curls a fist up to his chin and with an underhanded swing, releases four glowing spheres of light that bowl between Ivar and Rogars legs and careen into the room, brightening the area. Dancing lights.

Gitano calls out to Rogar, "A gentleman always knocks before entering the sorority. What's all the racket, brother?"

Expecting the worst, he tightens his grip on his rapier and buckler.

There must be some site delay. Didn't see the GM's second post until I just now posted mine.

Gitano calls upon Desna's favor. swift action

Buff: Archaeologist's Luck and Fate's Favored trait = +2 luck bonus to attacks, damage, saves, and skill checks.

Gitano moves into the room, noting the flying humanoid at the east end as well as the fugly goblin mutants.
Knowledge (arcana) with Inspiration: 1d20 + 8 + 1d6 ⇒ (12) + 8 + (4) = 24

"Rogar, I'll distract the flying thing. See if you can reach the switch and try to close those goblins' cages and block the door!" shouts Gitano as he races across the room.

Gitano lunges at the winged thing with his rapier.

Attack with AL&FF: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 121d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

If/when the first creature attacks Gitano…

Gitano, when visiting an eccentric wizard, came across a similar looking creature known as homunculus, a tiny artificial construct, made from a mixture of clay, ash, mandrake root, spring water, and one pint of the creator’s own blood. Due to that link, although not being able to speak, it is able to communicate telepathically with its creator from great distances. Although not a hardy creature, it has got a poisonous bite that can put the victim to sleep.

For now, the homunculus is in the way and you can't reach the switch.

As he races to what might be his doom, Gitano calls out, "Friends, this thing-on-a-wing is a homunculus, a construct made from a mix that includes its creator’s own blood. It can't speak, but it communicates telepathically with its creator. It has a poisonous bite that can put you to sleep."

Rogar tries to bellow over the goblins' screeching.

"Get the wee one, Ivar!"

He then moves closer and roars at the goblins.

Intimidate v blue, size difference: 1d20 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 + 4 = 13

Ivar rushes in for an arcane snack.

Attack v homunculus: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
Damage (B+P+S): 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

Zavubak rushes into the chamber, axe in hand. "Goblins. Mutant goblins. These must have been some of Athemon's experiments, and perhaps the homonculus his assistant." He holds his hand out, taunting the evil construct.

Double move

Msw light Crossbow: 1d20 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 + 1 = 4
Dmg: 1d8 ⇒ 6

Baied stays far from the fight and tries to shoot at the mutant goblins.

But she barely manages not to harm herself

Baied, you might have forgotten to move your token? You can't see any of the goblins from where you are. I've moved you but kept you to the back.

Reese moves into the room together with the rest of the team, drawing his battleaxe as he does so. Along the way, he starts a rousing song that fills your blood with rage.
raging song: non-action to accept or refuse its affects, and you may make/change your choice every turn --> +2 Str and Con, +1 Will, -1 penalty to AC. If you do, please indicate clearly in your post.

Gitano dashes into the room, stabbing at the flying construct with his rapier. The dextrous little creature tries to dodge the strike but it was too late. Its attention was too much on the switch and Gitano's rapier pierces through its artificial body, weakening it severely. Rogar lumbers into the room and, towering over the goblins, roars are one of them, briefly terrifying it into silence. Ivar races into the room and jumps to bite at the homunculus, but this time, it just manages to flap out of the way. Baied moves into the room, firing her crossbow at one of the goblins, but the bolt clangs harmlessly against the bars of the cell.

The homunculus ignores the attacks and Zavubak's taunts. Weaving around, it rises to the ceiling (20ft). It clearly intends to flee the room by sticking close to the ceiling, out of reach from everyone else.
Despite its withdraw action, Gitano and Ivar will get one AoO each when it left the 2nd square, if you can visualise it in 3D.

The party has little time to worry about the homunculus, however, as the goblins swarm out of their cells with their claws slashing! Basically, all took 5-foot step out and full attack.

red claw 1 vs Zavubak: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13 dmg: 1d3 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
red claw 2 vs Zavubak: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22 dmg: 1d3 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

yellow claw 2 vs Rogar: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10 dmg: 1d3 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
yellow bite vs Rogar: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22 dmg: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

green claw 1 vs Rogar: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14 dmg: 1d3 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

blue claw 1 vs Gitano, shaken: 1d20 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 3 - 2 = 10 dmg: 1d3 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
blue claw 2 vs Gitano, shaken: 1d20 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (12) + 3 - 2 = 13 dmg: 1d3 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
blue claw 3 vs Gitano, shaken: 1d20 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (7) + 3 - 2 = 8 dmg: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

purple claw 1 vs Ivar: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15 dmg: 1d3 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
purple claw 2 vs Ivar: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12 dmg: 1d3 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Two of the goblins manage to tear their small claws into Zavubak's flesh despite his strong armor. Rogar meets similar fate as two of the goblins similarly slashes into him with their claws. Gitano and Ivar fare better, nimbly dodging the strikes from the goblins in front of them.

Rogar lets Reese's song wash over him and gathers himself for a mighty swing!

Move action to gain Cleave via Martial Flexibility, then cleaving green followed by yellow.

Attack v green, PA, IR: 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 8 - 1 + 1 = 28

Cleave v yellow: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27
Damage: 1d10 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15

He then literally barks an order to Ivar (attack purple).

Ivar feels Reese's song as well, and nips at the retreating homunculus.

AoO: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 8 + 1 = 16
Damage: 1d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 1 = 10

With his new order, he then savages the nearest goblin.

Attack v purple, IR: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 8 + 1 = 19
Damage, IR: 1d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 1 = 8

As a free action, Gitano drops Archaeologist's Luck, but its effects last two more rounds with Lingering Performance.

Buff: Archaeologist's Luck and Fate's Favored trait = +2 luck bonus to attacks, damage, saves, and skill checks.

Gitano foregoes the opportune parry and riposte to take an AoO against the homunculus. (Otherwise, the mutant goblin's attack would have triggered it.)

Gitano takes a swing at the slippery homunculus as it flies up towards the ceiling. He attempts an ascending, underhand cut just to the right of the creature's tailbone. "Sottomano!"
AoO vs Homunculus with AL&FF: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 81d6 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Gitano twirls his blade and flashes a grin, though his cheeks turn red.
‘A true swordsman *never* whiffs an attack, he merely maintains a serene, composed smile and 'flourishes with style.'
--Rule #13, Gitano Frallino's Elements of Luck & Style

After the tiny arcane beast flees up the staircase to the southeast, Gitano sizes up the goblin mutant that attacked him.
Attack vs Lil Boy Blue with AL&FF: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 251d6 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Crit?!: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 181d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
With a successful critical hit, Gitano gains 1 panache; however, already at maximum 7.

"Little Boy Blue,
Come blow your horn... "
Nursery rhyme, author unknown

With a mighty swing of his axe, Rogar cleaves two goblins in half, spraying their blood with ichor and blood all over the room. Ivar, urged on by his natural hunting instinct, leaps up as the homunculus attempts to fly away, getting a tight grip on its legs, tearing them off its body. The construct falls to the floor, its artificial life torn from its body.

Gitano attempts to stab the homuculus at the same time, failing which covers it up with a dancing flourish. Instead, he turns his attention to the goblin attacking him. With another flourish of display, although missing any particularly vulnerable spot, still plunges into its chest and ends its life.
Technically, Ivar killed it with his AoO, so you could have taken the parry and riposte against blue, but it would still needed this attack to kill it. So same end result.

Not to go all murder hobo-y, but what about Ivar's attack against purple?

Gah! I knew I missed something.

Ivar spits out the horrid tasting creature, and lunges for the slimy goblin in front of him. The goblin, however, proves too quick on its feet and ducks from the attack.
Yes, that was a miss...

Zavubak laughs as the corrupted goblins tear at his flesh. "You call that an attack? How about this?" He leans forward and puts all his might into his axe.

Orc double axe , IR: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 91d8 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

His foot slips at the last second and the blade of the axe slams into the wall.

Five foot step and standard to attack

Baied aims more carefully this time, at the goblin with tentacled legs Orange Goblin

Msw Crossbow: 1d20 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 + 1 = 16

Another monstruosity born of chaos!

Zavubak's bravado falls flat as his axe clangs harmlessly against the wall. Baeid's crossbow bolt also strikes the floor instead of her target, with the goblins weaving about in close combat.
Baeid, take note that you have a -4 for firing into melee. In addition, the goblins would have cover bonus of +4AC.

Reese, keeping up his song, steps forward and swings at the tentacled monstrosity with his axe, but his aim is no better that Zavubak's.
Reese battleaxe, rage: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 5 + 1 = 11

The three remaining goblins seem oblivious that their numbers have more than halved in a very short time, and continuing tearing into their targets. Their frenzy, however, seemed to have lost steam as none of their attacks connect.

red claw 1 vs Zavubak: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10 dmg: 1d3 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Gitano somersaults around and behind Deep Purple to move into a flanking position with a Sczarni's best friend, Ivar.
Acrobatics to avoid an AoO vs Deep Purple's CMD: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24

"Boo!" he whispers in Deep Purple's ear as he slips his rapier between its ribs.
Attack with AL&FF + Flank: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 7 + 2 = 261d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

What resources did Reese us in my absence?

Reese dances across the floor in time with his song, swinging his axe with as much passion as skill.

"Though brave men at their end know death is right,
Because their swords had fought so fiercely they
Do not go meekly into that hard fight."

Zavubak growls in annoyance as his hit fails to connect. He feels the rage induced by Reese's song boil his blood.

Orc double axe, IR: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 61d8 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
Orc double axe, off-hand, IR: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (12) - 1 = 111d8 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Yet again, the goblin side steps both heads of the axe, and Zav spits in anger. "Foolish goblin, you will meet your end soon!" He steps back five feet, allowing someone else to attack.

In my last post, I forgot to note Gitano's opportune parry and riposte trigger.

If Gitano is attacked...

Seeing the opening offered by Zavubak, Rogar wheels around to face two goblins at once. Provoking an AoO from orange.

Once in position, he goes for a cleave again.

Attack v red, PA, IR: 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 8 - 1 + 1 = 18
Damage, PA, IR (magic & slashing): 1d10 + 5 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 5 + 2 + 1 = 15

Cleave v orange: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18
Damage: 1d10 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16

"Raaargh!"

Ivar rips into his target once more.

Attack v purple, IR, flank: 1d20 + 8 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 8 + 1 + 2 = 23
Damage, IR: 1d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 6 + 1 = 13

Reese, activated raging song in the first round.

Gitano and Ivar forms an effective dynamic duo. Gitano weaves behind the goblin, plunging his rapier into his lungs from behind. Before it could react, from the front, Ivar jumps out and tears out its throat. The other group fares less well. While Reese chops deep into the shoulder of the tentacled goblin, both Zavubak and Rogar's swings miss their respective targets.

Covered in goblin blood, Gitano cheers on his fellows, "Flank them if you can. Desna smiles on those who increase their odds."

Gitano breaks into an impromptu rap...
♫Baby Got Flank♫

He calls to Baied, "If you have to call on your magic, that pearl I found can help recover a spell you prepared."

Baied, not wanting to harm her friends instead of their foes, put down her crossbow, and seize her healing wand instead. She watches the fight from afar, spotting those who are really wounded to be able to heal them quickly

Baied is not much a fighter, moves toward Rogar to heal him.

CLW Wand: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Zavubak jumps up next to Reese and aims carefully, attempting to sever the tentacled legs from the orange-tinged goblin. "Enough of this waste of time. I've fought and killed tougher enemies in my sleep."

Orc double axe, IR: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 191d8 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9

Zavubak, not your turn yet. :) It's ok though, I'll just use it for the next round.

Rogar, according to your character sheet, your AC is 22, but in the stat line, it is 19? I'll take 22. Separately, I forgot for orange to take the AoO on you earlier.
orange claw AoO vs Reese: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11 dmg: 1d3 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Baied drops her crossbow, and moves towards Rogar whilst drawing her healing wand, activating it on him as soon as she comes up behind him.

In their frenzy, the two remaining goblins seem unaware or simply do not care that most of their comrades have been wiped out. Seeing Zavubak having retreated away, they gleefully switch targets.

red claw 1 vs Rogar: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21 dmg: 1d3 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
red claw 2 vs Rogar: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18 dmg: 1d3 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
red claw 3 vs Rogar: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22 dmg: 1d3 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

orange claw 2 vs Reese: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4 dmg: 1d3 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

The healing came in time, for one of the goblins tears into Rogar with two of his three claws, while Reese easily avoids the tentacled goblin's clumsy attacks.

Clearly frustrated, Zavubak jumps back to the frontline, swinging at one of the two, but despite its clumsy "legs" and deep wounds, the creature is agile enough to dodge out of the way. Again.

It's not much, but if it can make him avoid the realms of Pharasma, it's a good bargain.

Gitano calls upon Fate's favor once more, and then moves over to help his pals, careful to avoid Orange Crush.

Buff: Swift action for Archaeologist's Luck & Fate's Favored trait = +2 luck bonus on attacks, damage, saves, and skill checks. 7/10 rounds remaining.

"Red Rover, Red Rover, Gitano's come over."

Attack + AL&FF + Flank vs Red Rover: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 251d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

If an opponent makes a melee attack against Gitano, he will attempt an opportune parry and riposte...

Gitano provides a flanking bonus to Rogar as well as Zavubak.

Rogar roars in anger at the goblins' continued existance and pays no head to Baied's efforts to keep him alive.

Attack v red, PA, IR, flank: 1d20 + 8 - 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 8 - 1 + 1 + 2 = 22
Damage, PA, IR (magic & slashing): 1d10 + 5 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 5 + 2 + 1 = 16

Cleave v orange: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
Damage: 1d10 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16

Ivar rushes in to the fray, baying as Rogar roars.

Attack v orange, IR: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 8 + 1 = 15
Damage, IR: 1d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 1 = 8

Ending my performance, gotta save rounds since this is a module.

Reese suddenly stops singing, "These last two aren't worth my breath!" and then cuts another gash in the strange goblin in front of him.

Baied stands behind Rogar, resolutely undoing the damage the goblins are doing to him. Gitano with yet another acrobatic flourish and stabs one of the goblin again in its back, killing it in one stroke. His target nullified, Rogar transfers his mighty swing to the remaining goblin just as Reese's attack comes in, slicing the tentacled goblin into sashimi.

Combat over!

Searching the room, among the bodies of the goblins, you find a belt pouch around its waist containing 14 gp, 8 sp, and a severed human finger still wearing an emerald-faceted ring worth 200 gp. (Will be reflected in final chronicle sheet. You have little avenue for spending anyway.

His trapfinding done, Gitano scans the area. Through the closed door, he senses an moderate aura of conjuration. Through the other passage, however, likely due to the turns, he is not able to sense anything. (Detect magic is blocked by stone.)

Will pause for a day for healing, buffs, etc.

Rogar lets out a heavy sigh as the fighting ends. He then pulls out his own wand and uses it on himself.

CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

"That's the kinda stuff that makes a man feel alive... Where to next, Gitano?"

"I don't hear anything beyond the door to the east, Rogar, though I did detect a moderate aura of conjuration magic through it in the next room. Have we been summoned, perhaps?" Gitano chuckles at his pun.

He makes a wax on, wax off gesture and utters a brief incantion. His spell slowly begins cleaning the gore off his blade, his armor and his other gear.

Gitano looks a question at the party. "Are we resting here now to regain our strength and replenish our resources? I'm for pushing on, if no one objects."

If there are no objections...

"Let's take this door to the east. We can always retrace our steps and explore this staircase leading upwards and return to the unexplored area south of the ooze pit later."

Gitano refreshes his dancing lights, four glowing wisps that circumnavigate Ivar, teasing the valiant hound.

Zav hands his wand of cure light wounds to Baied. "I'll make sure nothing kills you, and you make sure I don't bleed. Deal?" He waits for her to tap him with the wand.

CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

"Rogar, Gitano, let's move on," Zavubak says, hefting his double axe. "The ooze and goblins were but an appetizer in what's likely a ten course meal. Let's be prepared. Or rather, perhaps they should be prepared," he grins menacingly as he looks at the door ahead.
