oops.
Day Job Check: Diplomacy (Vanity-caravan): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20

Aramil charges back into the fray, slashing at the creature as he says "Well, at least I can hit that!"
Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 11 + 1 = 19
Damage (cold iron): 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

"Great, and just what in the nine hells am I supposed to do with this!?" growls an already-frustrated Aramil as he watches the creature dissolve into a writhing pile on the floor. Looking over his shoulder, he dives out of the way as he sees Yoon wind up for a spell.
Full retreat against the wall. If someone could move me, I'd appreciate it as I'm posting from my phone.

Aramil shrugs off the damage and goes for a full attack this time.

First Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 11 + 1 - 2 = 14
Damage (Cold Iron): 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
Miss Chance: 1d100 ⇒ 85

Damage (Cold Iron): 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Miss Chance: 1d100 ⇒ 51

With the other undead out of the way, Aramil charges forward straight at the worm creature. He's a bit surprised at how quickly he reached the target, but maintains composure as he slashes at it with his sabre.

Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 11 + 1 = 24
Damage (cold iron): 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Roll Miss Chance: 1d100 ⇒ 78

Unable to see a target, Aramil steps back to take cover in the bushes. He'll hide for now and wait to sneak attack anything that appears.
Stealth: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (11) + 12 = 23

Slick whispers, *"Aramil, maybe you can help explain things to our new friends, if we need a little friendly persuasion. My arguments can be a little too philosophical for some."*

Aramil leans over and whispers back "I think you pretty much nailed. Personally, I was just going to kill them."

Aramil shrugs as he says "It's as good a plan as any. Besides, if that thing is worried about finding shelter before sunrise, perhaps we should be as well."

Oops, didn't realize we kicked off on Friday.
A half-elf with raven-black hair and hazel eyes stands in the back of the group, being unusually quiet. He drinks from the chalice with the rest of the group and steps through the portal. Once in the swamp, he stretches out and puts his swords through a quick routine, muttering to himself as he swings "Hmm, muscles don't seem to have deteriorated. Still have full range of mobility, too. Well, aren't we just a spry and lively bunch of undead."
As the group points out the incoming patrol, Aramil winks before melding into the darkness himself.
Stealth: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (4) + 12 = 16

Unarmed attacks are not with any specified body part. As a brawler I imagine a lot of Yoshi's are kicks and head butts. Well, he is a tripper by nature, so he is used to using his legs.

A fair point. As I said, I don't know much about unarmed attacks. Well this should be interesting indeed then.

I'm up for starting early. Also, I don't really see the secondary attack being much of an issue. For example, I'll be wielding a pair of sawtooth sabres, which means I'll be negating my claw attack. I'll still get a bite, but I wouldn't be able to successfully swipe with a claw attack while holding a weapon. Now, I don't know dick about unarmed attacks, but wouldn't that also apply to you, Yoshi? You'd either punch the target with your martial arts, or swipe them with your claws, wouldn't you?

Sneaky dot.

Aramil checking in.

Knowledge (local): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25
Aramil looks over all the information before looking up at Tskea with a wry smile. "So, it turns out that you're not as big a catch as we were lead to believe. You've been running around masquerading as an officer when in reality, you're just an NCO in jeopardy of being busted back down to enlisted status. Nevertheless, I'm sure the Society will find some use for you."
Turning to the others, he says "Very well, If you wish to investigate the temple, then let us do so quickly."
He then pulls the rope to force the ratfolk into a standing position before prodding her forward with his sabre. "Come on then," he says with a grin "As hostess, it's only polite that you give your guests a tour. And besides, as the old saying goes, ladies first.

"It's true we haven't cleared the rest of this lair, but that might be difficult to do with our newly acquired baggage in tow. However, if you truly wish to know what's on the other side of those doors, we could just ask." says the half-elf as he throws a wicked grin at Tseka.

With Karos holding her at gunpoint, Aramil will move in and frisk Tseka for any hidden weapons, confiscating anything that he finds.
Perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32
With that done, he'll bind her arms to her body and tie her hands together, leaving just enough extra rope to act as a leash to drag her along with.
"Well, gentlemen, we have what we came for. Might I suggest that we make our departure now?" he says as he turns to the group.
"Now, going back through the market might get dicey, but I'm willing to bet gold that there's an escape tunnel here somewhere. Let's take a look around the room."
Perception of room: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32

Yes! That is the purpose of our assignment.

Lol! My bad, I just got a little trigger happy and couldn't remember. I suppose we can let her live then....

Aramil charges in at Tseka, slashing with his sawtooth sabre but trying not to land a killing blow.
First Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (5) + 11 + 1 - 4 = 13
Nonlethal Weapon Damage: 1d8 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 1 = 11
Fire Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

so, jst for a little clarification, do we want Tseka alive as well?

Unable to deal with the disappearing target, Aramil concentrates his efforts on the enemy in front of him. He takes a 5-ft. step to get in flanking postion with Guang and procedes to slice the (red) ratfolk to ribbons.
First Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 11 + 1 - 2 + 2 = 15

Damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Aramil, quickly, strike down the shade before it saps our strength!

"Gladly." growls the half elf as he steps over and slashes at the shade.

Second Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (18) + 11 + 1 - 2 = 28
Weapon Damage: 1d8 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 4 + 1 = 10

Fire Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

Actually, I think I'll do that as well. I've got one of the shirts that offer a free reroll.
Reroll+GM Star: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 8 + 1 = 23
Whew! And with evasion, I also take no damage!

Ref. Save: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13
Nope...

Aramil takes a 5-ft. step forward and attacks the spirit creature with his newly enchanted weapons.
First Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (12) + 11 + 1 - 2 = 22
Weapon Damage: 1d8 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 4 + 1 = 9

Spirit Punch!: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19
Damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

I'll take 4 of those charges on my wand, Guang.
Hearing the woman's claim, Aramil lets out a sigh as he steps around the corner and faces the woman, both weapons drawn. He smiles as he asks "A deal, you say? Does that means you'll offer your heads up without a fight then?"
Intimidate: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21

Upon seeing Karos fall, Aramil quickly backtracks to the pit. Taking out his rope and quickly knotting it to create footholds, the half-elf ties off one end and descends down the pit, taking care to avoid the spikes at the bottom.
Climb: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
DC 5 for climbing a knotted rope, so I really can't fail that.
Upon reaching the bottom, Aramil takes out his wand of cure light wounds and says "Let's see if we can't put you back together before we climb out of here."
Use Magic Device: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
"Ah, come on now."
Use Magic Device: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9
"Dammit!"
Rolling a nat. 1 means that I can't use the wand for 24 hours now.
Aramil angrily stows the malfunctioning wand and ties the rope around Karos to make a harness. He then calls out "Alright guys, pull him out!"

Aramil moves cautiously behind Jal to provide support.
Perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (4) + 12 = 16
Stealth: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (18) + 12 = 30

Knowledge (Local): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15
"Indeed, let us continue forward. The rats may slip away if we give them a chance to."

Aramil takes a 5-ft. step and cuts into the ratman.
First Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (15) + 11 + 1 - 2 = 25
Weapon Damage: 1d8 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 1 = 11

Damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

weren't even gonna total the damage, were ya?

Aramil turns to the rat creature and unleashes his full attack on it.

First Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (20) + 11 + 1 - 2 = 30
Confirm Crit.: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (8) + 11 + 1 - 2 = 18

I think I got it. Lol!

Aramil commits to turning the red monster to ribbon.
First Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (16) + 11 + 1 - 2 = 26
Weapon Damage: 1d8 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 4 + 1 = 9

Fire Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5
Frost Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1

Fourth Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 6 + 1 - 2 = 10
He then takes a 5-ft. step back to open up the hole.

Jal: Of course you can read the journal. I never meant to imply that I was keeping it a secret. I merely worded it the way that I did for the sake of story progression.

With the party in position. Aramil quietly opens the door and looks in.
Stealth: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (12) + 12 = 24
Perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (8) + 12 = 20

"Now this could prove quite interesting to the higher-ups." mutters the half-elf with a grin as he slips the journal into his bag. He then moves to the secret door to inspect for traps.
Perception: 1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 12 + 2 = 19

Aramil will scan through the journal, looking for any information that might prove of use.
And just in case it's needed...
Linguistics: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20

Aramil quietly moves to investigate the single room.
Stealth: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (1) + 12 = 13
Perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (19) + 12 = 31

"If they're not interested in us, I say we return the favor. Our cover has been blown and we'll have enough fights on our hands from here on out. Besides, walking vegetation rarely gets by on muscle alone. I'd rather not tangle with whatever diseases or toxins they're carrying."
Sorry if that's too metagamey, but this character has fought a lot of fungi in his career.

Perception (taste): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (5) + 12 = 17
Aramil taste-tests the potions, but is only able to identify the potion of invisibility. "I'll just take this, if no one objects." he says with a grin as he slips it in his belt pouch.
Upon seeing the moshrooms, Aramil rushes to the front to take a defensive postion but doesn't attack if they don't.
A quick question to the GM: these are subterranean mushroom people, right? Would a Knowledge: Dungeoneering make an acceptable substitute in lieu of Knowledge: Nature? If so...
Knowledge: (Dungeoneering): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

Assuming the blue one is dead...
Aramil takes a 5-ft. step to the dice and fully attacks the (red) enemy.
First Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 11 + 1 = 26
Weapon Damage: 1d8 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 1 = 11
Sneak Attack Damage (flanking): 2d6 ⇒ (4, 3) = 7

Third Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 6 + 1 = 9

Fourth Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 1 = 11

Aramil softly curses under his breath as the consortium guards draw their weapons. Upon drawing his own, he stares in surprise for a moment as his sawtooth sabre's become sheathed in fire and frost. The look of surprise quickly turns to a wicked grin as he charges forward, stabbing the (blue) guard.
Attack: 1d20 + 11 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 11 + 2 + 1 = 27
Weapon Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
Sneak Attack Damage (flanking): 2d6 ⇒ (1, 2) = 3
Fire Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 6
Frost Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Diplomacy aid: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24
"My good sir, I know it's your business to ask questions, but a good fence never shows all his cards. Suffice to say that we have several items that your employer would be very interested in."

Aramil listens to the encounter quietly, looking for any sign of a lie in the creature.
Sense motive: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15

Aramil also moves to aid Karos' information gathering.
Diplomacy (aid): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21

"Hold a moment. I'd see that sword first." says the rogue as he takes it out of Guang's offering hand.
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (16) + 12 = 28

Aramil proceeds to put the sword through a (hopefully) far superior display, ending with the sword poised in front of the urchin's face. "You're right, people had best be careful. This whole 'blade through the mouth' thing could happen to anyone down here. At any rate, your sword seems a bit...unbalanced. Perhaps a quick visit to a smithy might fix that?"

Aid Diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13
"Uh, yeah, what he said..."

A gruffer-looking Aramil, now with some slight facial modifications and an eye patch, nods that he's ready.

Between Aramil's skill points and the hat of disguise, He'll be sitting at a +25.

I'll be using my Hat of Disguise to blend in. Just say when you need disguise checks.

"Ideally we won't have to deal with them at all. It is a black market after all. Everyone's goal is to get rid of their ill-gotten goods and then get out before they find themselves on the slave market."

"You know, when the Society told me to report to this outpost, I thought it was to put my on a boat home, not send me on another mission." muses a half-elf with raven-black hair, listening quietly as the mission objectives are given. With sharp hazel eyes, he analyzes each of his new teams members. "Seems a competent enough bunch. At least they're not ALL spellcasters like the last group."
Once the briefing is over, he bows in a polite gesture to each, revealing behind his cloak a breastplate made of shining white metal with the symbol of Taldor etched into the chest. He smiles as he says "It's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Aramil, and I look forward to working with you."

Knowledge (Dungeoneering): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
Knowledge (Local): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12
"Undead may be the least of our problems," Aramil adds with a grim face. "Word on the street is that Deepmarket is also an entrance to the Darklands. We may have to contend with drow, duergar, and Gods-know whatever else that might crawl out of that dark hell."
