Amontillado's page

Boom, just jumped in to take my turn - apparently not :P

Thanks guys, ripper final scenario for Monty's career - now its off to Eyes of the Ten for him. Thanks GM!

"Come on Lunchmeat, time for us to go and hear what the Decemvirate has for us"

Day job 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (13) + 21 = 34

Sorry, terrible week, total smashfest

Thanks Ceo! Huge round! :)

Monty runs and hurls himself across the next chasm!
Acrobatics 1d20 + 10 + 4 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 10 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 35

Then lashes at the creature - challenging it for its very life!

"He seems a bit disappointed" Monty mutters quietly

Monty looks on, knowing that it is time for talk, not thuggery and brutality. He instead just nods and smiles and tries to make Ouro look friendlier.

Aid another (Auto success) Ouroboreia

Monty and Lunchmeat ready to jump across.

"I'll go first"

Monty begins hopping across the pillars...

Monty gets poked with his wand... a lot

(10 charges of Inf Heal marked off).

Monty then examines the coffins.
Take 20 searching fro traps = 38, will then begin opening them if nothing found

Monty drags himself to his feet...

"That was expected, but rougher than expected"

9hp now :)

Monty is down...

He'd taken 117 and been knocked out once the Khopesh landed, damn your hot dice! ;p
Thats nasty, a melee attack AND a slam!?

Monty reels from the deadly accurate strikes, he screams his battlecry in anger!

Ouroboreia steps across to get a better view and then fills the space with a bunch of grasping black tentacles!

Black Tentacles

Attack 1d20 + 8 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 8 + 4 + 1 = 25 vs their CMD

***

Monty dismounts, no longer in a position for a decent charge, and moves around the melee.

Monty halts for a second to let Ouro fire off anything important first!

Monty always allows a Wizard to act first - he then avoids getting blasted by accident!

"Well done!" Monty gets back on Lunchmeat and finds a nice corner to dwell in, Lance at the ready - suspect about that statue.

Monty gets to work with Kyra.

Str 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24

Monty climbs the statue and prises the ouroborous free. Lunchmeat waits, suspicious of the statue.

"Sounds nasty" The rogue offers with some level of disgust.

Appraise 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
Appraise 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

Monty just admires the scenery.

He remounts Lunchmeat and stares at the statue.

Monty dismounts and moves ahead, checking for traps...

Perception 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (4) + 18 = 22

"I trusted you before they did" Monty gives a cavalier smile and pushes forward on Lunchmeat.

Monty looks on, happy with the result.

Monty raises an eyebrow at Elindiriel the bard "Is this your thing or should I warn them of the monster that is Amontillado?"

"HA! What challenge do you set?" Amontillado confidently calls back in his challenging tone.

Monty looks to his companions before answering, seeing which way they may wish to take it.

Wow, those DC's!!!!??!?

Monty is at home in an urban environment, but this isn't his forte!

Assist (Heal or Survival) 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12

Monty looks on, following the conversation, but not being insightful enough to bring anything to the table...

/Thug dot

Yay! Monty is now 11...!

"I shall see you all around again soon no doubt" he mounts up on Lunchmeat and heads off into the nearest sleazy dive.

"You don't want to go in there, this might best be reported on - we did what we were sent to do"

Serious? THAT bad?

"I'm not digging up artifacts of great power, I've heard what happens" Monty calls back cheerfully "That's what Torag gave us dwarves for"

Given no one has suggested anything untoward so far, Monty gets to work looking for any tricks or traps - being the Rogue he is...

Perception 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (18) + 16 = 34

Monty hangs back, staying on giard. This area isn't his strong point

Did he take all his -4's to hit Monty?

Errr I posted this AM, did it get deleted?

Monty charges down the Giant, calling out his mighty challenge as he goes!

Monty charges down the prone leader.

I assume he is shaken for 4+ rounds, so will elect to make him Frightened instead, which will make him flee. All the better to charge him again. He might be dead after all this though...!

Monty eyes off the Ettin.
"COMING THROUGH LIRIANE!"

Lunchmeat wheels around, lining up to charge the Ettin.

Hmm Monty was on Lunchmeat, and setting up for a charge lane... yet is starting in the worst possible location behind the trees... the ONLY place from which he can't do his thing :p

Monty moves over on to the road, all the better to position for a charge...

Awww that was awesome going - I was digging that!

Monty 'tsks' and nods for dramatic effect, reinforcing Hagnars message.

Monty looks to Shandor hopefully as though suggesting he keeps doing the talking as he seems to know something about the tattoos.

Intimidation 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (7) + 21 = 28+Frightening

"Are you talking to me? Are YOU talking to ME?" Monty replies to the argumentative head "Because you clearly must have been digging out from the rock you live under to not know you were talking to the Amontillado like so!" Monty gestures and gets all offended.

"Why don't you let the smart one do the talking bone head!"

"Now, you were saying?" he addresses the smart one.

Monty gets Lunchmeat tapped with a wand he produces...

2 Infernal heals

Monty looks at the small wound on Lunchmeat and the large ones on Elindriel "Might need a short respite eh?No point dying in a hurry"

"Good find Shandor, and some nice spells too - made quite a mess of those creatures" Monty points out appreciatively.

***

Monty listens to the conversation, then moves Lunchmeat to ensure they have no one in front of them to accidentally break a charge as they begin the quiet approach...

With the group merrily tearing holes in the enemy from range, Monty simply hangs back with sword at the ready defending the ranged attackers from a melee assault.

/delay

Monty steps in and swings at the beast that had the foolishness to strike his bird!

Nice. Waiting to see if any party AoE's are going off BEFORE Monty goes wading in

"Drawing them to us or going in after them?"

Monty hops off Lunchmeat and draws his Elven curve blade, "Probably time for up close and personal, whilst those are some big boys, there isn't a whole lot of room in there - we don't want to let them all get at us at once either - would hurt - a lot. Whats that odd thing with them?"

Monty hangs back, mounted on Lunchmeat with a clear charge lane to the door - in case things get heated.

Monty ruffles the feathers on the neck of his mighty Axebeak warmly "Good work friends, those giants never even saw what hit them!"

"Wonder it these items belonged to Hagal and he isn't getting quite the rest he anticipated?"
