I will do that. Thanks so much for the game!

I will forego my Day Job check to gain 1 extra Prestige Point.

Xuan bows politely to Goldur.

"You did a fine job! If you would ever like to follow the Way of the Monk, I would be happy to act as a referee."

Goldur chuckles. "Well I have been told it's never too late to start doing something new. Perhaps, if we find ourselves working together again, I will find the time for a few lessons!"

I see now I misread the Tie Up rules (shows how often I use them!). Unfortunately I have a +2 enhancement to Strength already, so the +4 replaces that

Grapple (Tie Up) + bull's strength: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22

If successful, the escape DC of the ropes is now 26.

Goldur will take the offered rope and attempt to tie up the paralyzed Tsomo.

Making a Use Rope check Grapple maneuver with the rope, escape DC is 24.

"Well done, Reverend" Goldur runs out onto the pier. "Tsomo, I didn't want it to come to this. Are you willing to cooperate?"

Double move. No longer inspiring anyone's courage.

"No? Well then take this!"

Inspire Courage! +2 to attacks, damage, and Will saves vs fear as long as you can see and hear me. (Rounds used: 11)

Warhammer + Inspire Courage: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 7 + 2 = 22
Damage + Arcane Strike + Inspire Courage: 1d8 + 3 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 3 + 2 + 2 = 15

"Give it up, Tsomo! Or you won't last much longer!" Goldur swings his dwarven hammer.

Inspire Courage! Inspire Courage! +2 to attacks, damage, and Will saves vs fear as long as you can see and hear me. (Rounds used: 10)

Warhammer + Inspire Courage: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 7 + 2 = 10
Damage + Arcane Strike + Inspire Courage: 1d8 + 3 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 2 + 2 = 9

Unfortunately, the slippery surroundings cause him to fumble badly.

How does everyone feel about 3d6 of channeled negative energy?

3d6 of channeled negative energy makes me feel loved and supported :)

In this specific instance, I have a good Will save so I'm fine with it, but if you move a little to the left you'll be hitting only two allies and three enemies. Which makes it (probably) a good idea.

"Watch out for the sharks! They've got more room to move now!"

Knowledge (Nature) - Lore Master: 10 + 9 = 19

Inspire Courage! +2 to attacks, damage, and Will saves vs fear as long as you can see and hear me. (Rounds used: 9)

Double move.

Conditions: fatigued

Goldur pulls out one of his hammers and moves closer. "Tsomo, we have you! Surrender while you still can!"

Inspire Courage! +2 to attacks, damage, and Will saves vs fear. (Rounds used: 8)

Bluff: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

"Stop that one! I just saw him take something from your stall!"

With no spells or items that would be of any help, Goldur tries to help Galandir wrangle one of the dolphins. "Take this, my friend!"

Aid Another (Ride): 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (13) - 1 = 12

Knowing at a glance where the giant squid's ink sacs are, Goldur applies just the right amount of pressure to force some of it out without hurting the squid-- hoping it had not already used its ink for a different purpose recently.

Knowledge (nature) - Lore Master (can always take 10): 10 + 9 = 19

Goldur quickly consults the spirit of the bridge itself to provide him the best way of closing it and sealing off Tsomo's escape.

Knowledge (engineering) - Lore Master: 20 + 4 = 24

I think Red and Goldur would be good candidates for the other potion (I disagree with Red's logic here, I think the two of us having terrible bonuses actually means we're the ones who would benefit the most). As to which one, if Red really doesn't want it Goldur will take it.

Goldur casts a spell on the ground beneath Tsomo's feet, creating a layer of slime underneath him!

Casting grease, DC 13 Reflex save or fall prone.

Perception (2nd round of checks): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 15

And since that probably didn't get it...

Perception (3rd round of checks): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 29

Am spent.

Fort vs fatigue: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14

(slight retcon)

"Excuse me, but we could very much use your help with a certain matter," Goldur says to the Glass Pit management. "We have evidence that this area has been sabotaged to allow a large amount of water in-- which, I'm sure I don't need to tell you, would be disatrous. We could use your help detecting and mitigating the sabotage-- and not causing a panic. An ally of ours is on her way with reinforcements."

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (7) + 10 = 17

Maybe I'm just not seeing it, but where are the eight sites? We're on slide 10, right?

Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (10) + 10 = 20

Could've sworn I posted earlier but I guess not.

"The later it gets the less we'll be able to trust ourselves, as fatigue sets in. We should hurry. Splitting up certainly seems like the quickest way to hit all the target areas."

"Keep at it, Xuan, I'm coming!"

Inspire Courage! +2 to attack, damage, and Will saves vs fear. (Rounds used: 7)

Double move.

Flat check d20 Roll because this is 1st edition: 1d20 ⇒ 20

Nice!

My wife had her gallbladder removed last year. It's apparently a very routine surgery and she still took 2 weeks to recover even with no complications.

I had complications after an appendectomy and was out of work for a month. Recovery is not fun!

"We got him surrounded!" Seeing the last sahuagin is much too far away for him to reasonably catch up to, the old dwarf stows his hammer and pulls out his target bow as he moves closer.

Inspire Courage! +2 to attack, damage, and Will saves vs fear. (Rounds used: 6)

Stow weapon, move + draw weapon

Yes, sorry, forgot to indicate that.

Inspire Courage! +2 to attack, damage, and Will saves vs fear. (Rounds used: 5)

"Keep it up, boys! There's five of us and only three o' them!" He swings his hammer at the closest sahuagin.

Warhammer + Inspire Courage vs yellow: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 7 + 2 = 19
Damage + Inspire Courage + Arcane Strike: 1d8 + 3 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 3 + 2 + 2 = 15

I'll go ahead and post my turn, since I don't think Red's actions will affect mine or vice versa.

Yellow and Red are glitterbombed. Yellow got it into their eyes. “Hey, what sort of inspection is this?!?”

"The sort where my hammer meets your fishy face, hah!"

Inspire Courage! +2 to attack, damage, and Will saves vs fear. (Rounds used: 4)

Goldur draws one of his hammers and rushes forward as fast as his legs can carry him.

"Safety inspection!" Goldur calls out, now that he's had a chance to think on it. "We need to see the conditions in here!"

Bluff: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21

I completely forgot I have my own reroll. Oh well.

I can give three of us invisibility for 5 minutes. Can anyone help the other two?

Bluff: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

Let's see, what do these types of warehouses always have? Ah, inspectors! Goldur marches up to the closest of the patrolling guards. "Good evening. We're conducting a surprise inspection of the..." He falters, having forgotten to get his story straight ahead of time. "Safety. I mean the, erm, cement. Safety of the cement. Which is inside."

He isn't very convincing.

I vote we rest, but we can go to the next location first.

If it's been 12 hours, we can reasonably stay active for no more than 4 more hours before needing to rest. Realistically no more than 2, since a 10-hour rest would account for morning prep time. (And when you have to walk everywhere, 2 hours is not very long!) So I vote we start looking for a place to spend the night.

Goldur's weapon hand drops when the final sahuagin does. Every time I consider hanging it up... He finds a bit of wall to lean against to catch his breath and patch up his injuries.

Cure light wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Cure light wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

I can sleep the rest of it off.

"Perhaps we should use the time to look for a place we can get some shut-eye?" he asks the group hopefully.

"I think he's weakening! Keep at it, boys!"

Inspire Courage! +2 to attacks, damage, and Will saves vs fear.

Warhammer + Inspire Courage vs red: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 7 + 2 = 23
Damage + Inspire Courage: 1d8 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 3 + 2 = 12

"Hah! Just one more to go!" He steps over the body and rushes toward the last sahuagin, hammer raised.

Inspire Courage! +2 to attacks, damage, and Will saves vs fear.

Warhammer + Inspire Courage vs red: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 7 + 2 = 25
Damage + Inspire Courage: 1d8 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 2 = 10

"Take 'em down, lads!" Goldur shouts as he brandishes his hammer, moving and sounding like a dwarf several decades younger. "A few fishing forks aren't no match for us!"

Inspire Courage! +2 to attacks, damage, and Will saves vs fear.

Move action: movement
Standard action: Bardic performance

"Right behind ya!" Goldur says in a tone that says I'll do what I can here. He pulls one of his namesake hammers from his belt and moves into the room.

Double move.

Goldur casts a comprehension spell on himself after receiving the Reverend's water-breathing magic. He swims through the water as best he can, glad he isn't wearing the plate and stone armor common for dwarves.

Casting comprehend languages. My take-10 on Swim is an 11, so that should let me navigate ok (outside of combat).

Linguistics: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18

"Hm, I can't make any more sense of it."

No, but I can cast comprehend languages (and if we really need it I have a scroll of tongues). Two hours of water breathing would pretty much take us to the end of the day, so this might be a good time to cast it.

Looks like Xuan is easily the best swimmer of the group. Want to dive in?

Unless there are any complications along the way...

Goldur knocks politely on the door of Tsomo's house.

"There are two mysteries we've not solved: the markings on the whale sharks, and the sahuagin watching Yuka's shop. I don't know if either of them are related, but we wouldn't be doing our, ah, due diligence if we didn't follow up on them." Though it feels like we're only indulging Zahra at this point. "I'm not convinced talking to the sahuagin is a good idea, but I hope Tsomo can shed some light on the markings."

"It's possible, although we have seen two different ones in the same spot. Is that a... common sahuagin resting area? For what it's worth, Yuka himself didn't seem concerned."

"And unless we uncover something pressing," Goldur says with a yawn, "that may be a good time to find an inn. These old bones don't have the endurance they used to, especially so far from home."

I hope this shark finds you well. And doesn't eat you.

"Curious." Goldur frowns. Could there be something here after all? "We could ask the sharks who really put the marks on them, and whether that person said anything to them."

Xuan, Red, is there anything you'd like to do or add?

"Certainly. Let's go ask Lileone if she can translate for the whale sharks."

"It certainly might. We're all more than willing to follow any further trails you may have, because... Well we've pursued the others and, to my eyes, there's little to be found. Tsomo's, ah, receptionist was less than forthcoming, it must be said. But that in itself isn't evidence of anything."
