Yes, you may Catherine. Just try not to make too much use of it haha.

After having time to discuss and prepare. You all hear a distant, yet close, chime of a bell. Seconds later Ivan's voice rings out through the tunnels.

ALRIGHT, TIME TA' START THE TEST! YOU! GET YOUR GROUP AN' 'EAD ON IN! He points to another recruit. The more socially inclined among you may know him as Sebastian Krout. An earnest, if easily flustered lad. He gives a small eep before saluting and making his way toward the tunnel with two others.

ALRIGHT, NEXT GROUP, UP IN TEN MINUTES! YE CAN VOLUNTEER, OR YE CAN BE CALLED! He gives a glance around the room waiting for any volunteers after the initial group.

Ivan cuts an imposing figure in his full plate, the thick plates so large one would wonder how the dwarf moves at all. He takes a glance over you all, before sounding out in his usual, extremely loud shouting.

ALRIGHT YE BLIMEY PEACH BEARDED DAFFODILS LISTEN UP!

His voices reverberates off the stone walls, making his voice louder, something many of you likely thought impossible.

YE FIRST TEST, SURVIVAL! THERE BE ONE ENTRANCE, AND ONE EXIT TO THESE CAVERNS, YE OBJECTIVE IS TO FIND THE EXIT AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE! BE WARNED, THA CAVERN RUNS A WHOLE DAYS WORTH O' TRAVEL IF YE KNOW THE WAY! LIKELY MUCH LONGER TO THOSE THAT DON'T. EACH O' YE WILL BE GIVEN A MAGIC BELL, IF YE EVER FIND YE'SELF LOST, ALONE, AND WANTIN TO CRY LIKE A WEE UNBEARED BABE YE RING THAT BELL AND HELP WILL COME TO YE! THOSE O' YE THAT MAKE IT OUT WILL BE GRADED ON THE SPEED YE MADE IT OUT AND YE CONDITION. BE WARNED, ALL SORTS O' VARMITS MAKE THERE HOME IN THESE TUNNELS, NUTHIN YE YOUNGIN'S SHOULDN'T BE ABLE TE HANDLE THOUGH!.. OH! ALSO, YE ARE TO BE ALLOWED TO WORK IN GROUPS, OR GO SOLO! IF YE MAKE IT OUT SOLO YE WILL GET A BONUS TO YE FINAL SCORE! YE GOT AN HOUR TO PREPARE AN FORM ANY TEAMS YE BE WISHIN, NO MORE THAN 7 TO A TEAM! FORM YE TEAMS, OR ASSEMBLE YE GEAR AND WHEN THE BELL CHIMES, IT BE TIME TO ENTER THE TUNNELS! IF YE 'AVE ANY QUESTIONS, YE CAN ASK ME.

He moves to stand near the entrance to the tunnels. You quickly hear hushed whispers from the other recruits, some bragging about how they will be completing this challenge solo, others trying to form teams. All have an excited energy to them.

sorry, for some reason I had been registered as unactive or something, nothing was coming up on my campaigns screen :/

Ivan bellows as the orcs flee again. Git back Er' Ye' Buggers! I'll show ye how a dwarf fights!

climb: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

After holding his axe in his teeth, and having trouble shimmying down he jumps the rest of the way placing his axe in his hand and roaring as he falls, trying to fall on an orc.

acrobatics: 1d20 - 3 ⇒ (3) - 3 = 0 sigh


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

comere'! Ivan infuriated thrashes about with both axe and shield

axe: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

ye durnred flying jackrabbits !


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

Laddie, first rule of RPGs. Ye can't ever kill what should be easy, but ye always kill what should be hard. Those big climatic boss fights are quite ususly anti-clamitic due to this :p


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

comere ye winged orc turds! I've got a present for ye!

attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6 uh oh..


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

Ivan Fixes glares with the mistrustful man until yet another dwarf speaks.

Oye! Anotha of me kin! This be a good day indeed! Naught much care for savin' some pansy kingdom's arse from they own kin, but I hate anyone that would eva' sell his own kin out! Aye, I reckon I can be counted to go with ye, after all, someones gotta keep all ye buggers outa trouble!

Ivan moves over to the new dwarf arrival and gives em a good hard pat on the back.

Tell me, How'd ye get caught up in all O' this?


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

The orog already got his lass!


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

I supposed Ivan would go along promise of gold or not.


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

IT WAS ME YE DURNED FOOLS Ivan's bellowing can be heard throughout the night.

I AD'EM LINED RIGHT UP UNDER ME AXE. That fella just stole it what I tell ya!

-----
After the spy confesses Ivan shrugs, then speaks.

To be honest laddie, Ah' couldn't be carin' less whether O' not ye humans sell out to orcs. Ah' signed up here fer guard duty and tha chance to cut some orcs up. Ye wantin' me to abandon that contract and be takin' that book to someone what might be anotha' spy, I be wantin' some good pay. Seems to me that takin' that book is a death warrant laddie. I'm in, but only if it pays big.

Ivan matter of factually speaks to him with a serious face.

I'll also be taking me pick of the new loot ifin' ye don't mind.

Ivan rummages around through the captured supplies, selecting the choicest of ingots to take with him.


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

ivan stares at jasper for a moment then bellows.

ye took me kill! BAH!


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

GET BACK HERE YE GREEN OAF!
Ivan moves up to keep pace with the orog (5ft step) Then lifts his shield and lowers into a slightly more defensive stance, the strike still stinging his side.

ohhhh, that'll probably bruise that will.

damage: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14 (+1 damage from both if no ally is to Ivans left or right, AC is 23)

gilbert, I think you may have saved my bacon friend!


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

Bah. Don't need no stinkin range. Just need me a battle boar.


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

That's up to you. You can still pick up rapid shot at three (you have point blank right?) Which ever you choose.


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

Lay on hands is IMO, the best class feature the paladin has access to, unless you have high charisma for the +Cha to saves, gets both at level two so when you level again your power is gonna jump lol


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

Ye bloody fool of a divine hunter! I would have waited until 2 lvls in paladin myself.


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

Ivan Barrels out the doorway, slamming right into the Orog, his axe leading.

acrobatics: 1d20 - 3 ⇒ (2) - 3 = -1 emm... well then. lol
BARRELINGCHARGE: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16

damage: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13

ac is 19 until next turn

THat'll Learn ye, ye fat goblin!


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

Ivan jumps suddenly roaring and brandishing his half eaten leg of meat.
finally I can be making good on me promise!

He starts to go for the door then looks to his hand.

well, maybe I should grab me axe first ...

He gathers his axe and shield from the wall next to him. All alcohol seemingly gone from him he smacks his axe on his shield

ye ruined a perfectly good evening! Now this old dwarf is gonna teach ye ugly face some proper manners ye half twit son of a goblin! Come in at yer own peril less ye be afriaid!

Ivan spends the first round getting his axe and shield and moving towards the door.


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

bah, guess he ain't but a wee sprite after all. Well, more fer meself! Bwahahaba.

Ivan bellows through the night, finally passing out with a half eaten leg of meat in his hand


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

Ivan squints at the other dwarf and the halfing.

BAH, alright then, come on then laddie! lets see what ye got!

He places a heavy hand across the halfings back and gives him a firm pat.


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

Late that night after Ivan decides he has lectured the lads enough for the day, he takes out his own silver steel mug and walks towards gilbert.

oye laddie! Ye looking a mite worse for wear! I know what'll fix ye up! Some good ole dwarven brew! I've got some left ere'an' I got a recipe from me folks that'll knock even the stoutest dwarf off o' his feet after a few drinks. Come on then, let's see how ye handle yer drink kinsmen!

Ivan slaps Gilberts shoulders with a heavy hand, forgetting his injuries and attempts to lead him to a table in his normal heavy handed, yet cheerful and well meaning way. Regaling him with stories of drink contests won and lost.


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

As the fight ends Ivan makes his way back to the sleeping orcs, and makes sure none of them will awaken again.

-----

Ivan blunders his way through the gates still muttering about the cowardly orog and not getting a good fight. However upon seeing the group of spearmen he bellows out.

NO NO NO. Ye be doing it all wrong! Here, ye hold it like this when ye be in a formation! Here,_ ye stand closer together, protect ye mate with ye shield, let the back ranks focus on doin' tha poking with the sticks! he ignores the older man and moves off towards the group of spear men.

He goes on for awhile giving a long lecture and lesson to the clearly undertrained men on dwarven discipline. After he stops and gives a nod. A sigh of relief emanates from the group. Only to have him speak again.

alrigt lads! Time to learn how to keep yer armor from fallin' to bits!

For most you hear Ivan's booming voice late into the night making sure to keep their attention.


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

HP: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13

Now that be a dwarfish role for HP bwahahaha!


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

Ivan continues his flight.


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

Ivan continues his barreling charge as he sees his comrades begin to fall. He bellows out at the orog.

oy! Ye big dumb pile O turd! Why don't ye fight me! Ye cowardly pig! Ye smaller than than the wee dwarves back home! Ye so tiny I thought ye was a goblin!


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

Bah, would'nt be nothin' bout it early old man. Hell I think ye be older than I am! With that Ivan runs towards the combat at the front, now comon, I'll be keeping the durned things attentions of ye.

Ivan barrels down the caravan faster than a dwarf ought to have a right to bellowing the entire way. (20ftx4 IIRC)


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14

Ye durned orc! what makes ye think ye can best me!?

damage: 1d10 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

Ivan barrels towards the closest orc. (Youd think he'd learn.)

Shouting. YE BLOODY GREEN TURD, LET ME AXE AVE O TASTE O YE UGLY ARSE FACE! I GOT ME SOME PAYBACK WAITIN' FOR LAST TIME.

unless the closest orcs are the ones bearing reach weapons. Then he sticks back flinging insults ...

M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

Ivan lumbers over toward the group after leaving a very confused captain behind him. He gives a cock eyed stare towards the new members then bursts out with a laugh.

BWAHAHAHA! finally! Someone with some dang sense dangit! Kinsmen I welcome ye to the fold, not O one O us here is ranked O'er anotha specially no haughty elfing! Though ifn' A lad be havin' a good idea ye be sure to follow it.

sense motive: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18

After hearing the part about magic, the dwarf BAHs and grumbles as he walks away. he shouts back to the seller Ye made dat up ye charlatan! those weapons be O' fine quality no doubt, But I'd wager me own mug that there ain't O' bit O' magic to em' BWHAHAHA

M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

I think Ivan got back to full surprisingly. Or close enough to heal up the rest in a night of sleep.


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

When emerald speaks to thallan about offing the orc, Ivan Gives a loud roar, bringing his axe around and slicing the things head clean off.

THat be fer making me look a fool ye bloody cursed earth durned stone of an orc!

He then nods at emerald and meanders off, not bothering to clean the gore from his axe. muttering about how the poor orc didn't deserve a quick death.


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

Ivan will groggily shake his head.

oye... by Toraqs hardened nipples, Dat hurt! oye, cleric, mind ifin ye give me anotha dose O' da good stuffs?

He will retrieve his shield, then check to make sure he still has his axe, then stand if possible.


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

how does healing work again? I played with my old GM so long I forget, he had it like any healing brought you to 0 then added on, figure that's not the RAW way.


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

in a bellow of rage, or joy, the dwarf charges at the closest orc, bringing his great dwarven axe to bear.

BWHAHA ivan laughs as arrows ping off his shield.

Ivan hears shouts from behind but cannot spare the concentration to look.
Cowardly bastards! Ave' a taste of me axe! An' don't ye worry, there be plenty for the lot O' ya!

attack: 1d20 + 4 - 1 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 4 - 1 + 2 + 1 = 23

M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

I've found if the GM enjoys the character he is less likely to have him killed. :P lol.


M Dwarf Drillmaster of the Order, Rough, gruff and blunt. He is a harsh and boisterous dwarf and expects much from new recruits. Often earning their ire for a time.

Also, I hope the GM is enjoying Ivan's antics ? Lol.
