In the confusion, Pebble carrying Chops on his back reaches Gilian.
Pebble moves back towards the struggling Elorg and poors Gilian's potion in her mouth.
Fortunately for Pebble, the tentacles do not consider the elemental as a threat and just graze by him.
Moving under the tables to reach Duncan , Pebble releases the Cure medium wounds spell on him for HP
In the mean time, a lump of rock starts to unfold itself into a small dog as Pebble raises, ready to defend his mistress if necessary.
Sensing her mistressthorn between her son's safety and her loyalty and desire to fight against the shadow, Pebble raises from the ground where he was waiting. "Mistress, if you desire, I will stay with the young master and help him in this strange place."
At Duncan feet, the snow raises then drops to let emerge the rough humanoid shape you have come to associate with Pebble. It raises a fist in the air. "Wohoo, we've found them. I'll go and get Mistress Gilian. What a surprise they'll have." Pebble plunges back into the frozen ground.
Pebble stands in the snow, his body covered in snow, icicles already forming along his arms. He stops from his relentless work are clearing a path through the snow and calls back to the two shapes emerging from the woods cover. "There is a huge tree on the other side, mistress. Is it where we must go?"
As soon as Gilian has moved towards the tunnel, Pebbles emerges from behind a column in his dog form. Moving quietly, he stands by his mistress as they take the bridge then the strange metal contraption across the Chasm.
As Sorok shouts, Pebble, coming back from the top of the stairs, enters the room and look for the threat. Unperturbed by the smoke, he tries to feel the strange dwarf steps and determine the direction of its flight.
Perception ,
Pebble rushes back to pick up both the staff and sword of the mage. The first one, he hands to Solvi and the second to Duncan, while Gilian is busy healing every one.
As Sorok takes back his shield, Pebble looks round to see the new threat appearing out of thin air. as both lizard materialize, he tires to remember if he has already seen some of these in some caves.
Frightened by the big earth gliding being, Pebble keeps out of reach of the monster. As he realizes Ragnar is weaponless, he emerges from the ground to pick up Ragnar's spear and hands it back to him.
In the mean time, Pebble rushes unseen towards the sorcerer and, guided by ther vibrations of his foe, emerges from the earth at its feet and reaches for its trunk-like base.
Having missed the apparition of the red and green mushroom, Pebble keeps his senses on it when Muni points it.
Having warned the group of the incoming monster, Pebble moves to his mistress side to wake her.
As Gilian looks down the slope, unsure on how to proceed, Pebble comes back to her, having secured the rope. "Going down is easy, Mistress. Rock is you friend. Look, I will make steps for you." The little elemental fuse with the stone, living only his hands out as footholds.
From where he stands, Pebble sees Ilona coming to him, lost in her fear. Gently, as ragnar has done previously, he tries to catch her to prevent her from running in the dark but completely misjudge his movement. Grab
In the meantime, Pebble keeps watch for any other creature try to sneak on the group.
Unabashed, Pebble stares at Lyj. "If you do, I'll call Grandfather and he will squish you." With these words, Pebble sinks into the ground again and a ripple shows here and there around Lyj, a trace of his presence.
"I am Pebble, says the stone-like being, I will remember your steps, so do not try to harm my mistress." He crosses his arms and trying to look bigger and more menacing than he really is.
Five foot in front and under the ground, Pebble tenses, ready to intercept anyone trying to harm his mistress
"Uh, Pebble...I think you should go get Solvi. I think she will kill me if I touch anything in this room." If Pebble has any inkling to human inflection, s/he will suspect that Chops really does think that Solvistania will kill him. Pebbles runs back to the rest of the group and emerges at the feet of Solvistania. "We have found a big room with a platform and a stone chair, a table with something shiny on it. There is also a big circle with light curtains and we cannot see inside.
While Gilian ponders, the little elemental raises his hand by his mistress, asking for a spell to deliver. As Gilian casts the healing spell, the little elemental plunges back into the ground to try to reach the summoned squeleton.
"Whatever. I'm getting bored as hell listening to all these flapping lips. These levers and lifts make it damn hard for me to do my job. Hey Pebbles, what say you and I go have a look around? You can be my thumbs when we run into stuff that needs 'em. We can come back if we run into anything that looks different than what we've already seen." "I would like to do that. I love those rooms that go up and down. We used to play like that with my brothers"
On Gilian instruction, Pebble, stands just behind the stone and peers into the next room (darkvision and tremorsense 60')
Pebble comes back up and tries to explain what he has seen.
Nightflier: Pebble tries to send Gilian safe feelings so that he is taken back up.
Once the platform is back up, Pebble will climb on it and hide into the stone. Once down again, he will have a look around and check for dangers. If nothing happens, he will try to transfer to Gilian thoughts of security so that they can haul him back up.
The little being puffs with importance. "Yes, mistress, I can do that. I will hide in the stone while it goes down and give a quick look around when it has stopped." "And I do not mind if he calls me rock. My mother called me little rock and he sounds just like her"
The small elemental sakes his head, as if he was trying to get rid of an angry bee. "This is the worst thing that happened to me, mistress. I was pulled into the ground and could not feel it around me. Brrr."
Charged with healing energy, the small elemental easily evades the thick of the melee by running under it. Guided by Chops unmistakable steps, he moves under him and reaching with an arm, lighlty touches his back leg, releasing the spell.
Right behind the prisonner, two hands raise from the ground and reach for his throat. Pebble raises and grab the collar with both his hands and try to wrench it open.
Pebble moves back to the others and emerges right by Gilian: "The big toothy one has seen something. Both him and the scaled elf say you must be quiet and they will ambush the others"
Pebble follows Chops, 5 feet into the ground and concentrates on sensing any movement on the ground.
Solvistania thinks to Felina, GO!. Felina responds like a flash, heading back down the passageway to where Pebbles was left earlier.
Pebble had watched anxiously the whole party cross the water towards the distant stalagmite. Would they come back? And in the mean tme, what could he do? Sitting on the ledge, he stood still for a moment before jumping on his feet and rumbling back to the small entrance tunnel. I will dig that tunnel larger so that the big ones won't get stuck again when they come out. And with the energy of a tireless elemental, he brings his two fist down on a rocky edge to break it down.
"This is my mistress, I am Pebble and I look out for her."
Pebble moves around the ledge going in and out the rock if necessary to lend a hand to Ilona who is hauling the grome up.
"Yes, mistress." The voice has the sound of light gravel cascading down a slope and reminds you of a child trying very hard not to laugh.
"Yes, mistress Gilian, I will do it."
