Hugh Tiberious Gatsby's page

Relieved at the arrangement he starts to become his normal chip self.

"Because that's the name of the Kobold that saved the throne?L he shrugs "I kind of didn't pay attention to most of my studies. Would you know Havelock?"

Everyone's speechless, eh?

Same here. I'm ready when y'all are!

Same here. I'll be taking another in (flippin') ninja and I'll have everything posted and listed!

All of you are also now second level.

Yay =D how are we leveling HP?

"Let's hope he's not angry when he gets out...."

He sighs "I'm not known for my talking points but I can try. I'm not sure if we should part company just yet though as we don't have the rest of the place explored and all our questions answered. We don't want to be giving incomplete information."

"You think that's gonna matter to Count Illance? Why would he accept and keep our truce?" He tries to collect himself before he boils over "We were sent by the Count to investigate a clear out any trouble. We've done both, technically, but do you think he's going to just let these Kobold stay here? Especially if they killed his great-grandfather? And what of the towns water supply being tainted? This started in blood and it'll end in blood." His churning blue eyes grow steely as his voice becomes a whisper, not out of secrecy but the impending tragedy it seems to solidify for him "If we can't convince them to leave they will all be killed."

"What if our foes end up fortifying the place again when we come back?" Hugh asks "I don't like the idea of leaving our job half finished and then returning to find we have to do it all over again with help. Bad form and all that."

"I call the role of punching this keeper of this voice smugly in the face."

Hugh pops out of no where and helps too.
Strength: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

I'm back! Seems I missed a bit of things.

Hugh whispers "Are we really in a position to guarantee there will be no retribution? Count Illance Doesn't seem like the forgiving type."

"So I take it these shiny wands aren't for farming or tickling?"

Sorry about the lack of posting. Finals are in full swing.

Hugh walk out to the group "The rest of the rooms in the left wing are mostly empty, but there are strange green fumes in one room. Either an experiment gone wrong, or something back there someone doesn't want us to get to." He shrugs "How's the stern talking going?"

Hugh moves to the group to let them know he's still around, and then finishes exploring the rooms on the left of the map before staying with the group.
Perception: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7 to see if I find anything out of the ordinary.

I go into the closet below and stealth, waiting for an enemy to run out of the hallway to catch by surprise

Stealth: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12

I move further down the left side. Am I able to move further down? I'd like to peek before I do.

Pwehpweh!
Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12
Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 5

My reddit name is NapstasInvictus. Now you'll can stalk me O.O

No! Don't say that! It's like saying "Nothing could possibly go wrong." or "This is going to be the best Christmas ever!"

Hugh rushes to the spot between the group and readies his crossbow to fire at any foe that comes within 30 ft of him.

Initiative: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21

I guess I'll fall in behind

"Well that wasn't embarrassing at all."

"I think I'll try and see what's in this room, make sure there's no ambush or set up one of my own.". Hugh tries and climbs up into the pantry all sneaky like.
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
Stealth: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18

Hugh makes his way up to Havelock. "In case we all die a horribly painful death in the next hour, I want you to know that I appreciate your assist earlier. As much as I like to think I can take on the world, I know I wouldn't be anywhere without those who help me." he drops his pride for a slight second. "Thank you."

Just as suddenly as his gratitude showed itself his movements become more brisk, his stature more sharp, and the ever present grin reforms from the humble smile. The facade pops back into place. "Back to business" He makes his way back outside and gives a laugh "Side entrances are where all the fun happens! How is everyone? "

Hugh looks into the hall with his crossbow at the ready when he hears the whistle, thinking it was a signal to charge. He is surprised to instead see Havelock looking into a yellow cloud directly ahead of him. He take the opportunity to pick up his blades, sheathing them into his wrist, and bringing his crossbow back to the ready and catches his breath.

When Marcus walks up to offer Hugh to help, he remembers he was run through earlier and whispers to himself. "Oh, this blood is only partially mine." he says with a bit of pride. "I appreciate the concern friend, but I have my own I can use before taking you up on your concern." Hugh takes out his only CLW potion and begins to drink it recovering 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5 health points. "I will however take you up on your generous offer when I cannot tend to my own wounds. I think I saw our....witch take a hit though. Perhaps she'll take you up on your offer?

Have I acted this round? I'm confused.....

Hugh feels the pain in his chest lighten up though there's still some pain everytime he breaths. As he picks up his crossbow he speaks out to Havelock "Maybe you're not as bad as I thought."

He then tries to hide behind the statues looking into the front to see if any other kobolds are making their way out.
stealth: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19

There we go, sorry about that.

I still haven't acted yet in the round. I'll post when I'm back from classes my actions in a couple hours. Sorry about the delay

Yay! 1 HP! Is Dimwit threatening? Because if so I would like to Acro to a flanking. Just wanna make sure he is first though.

Well with a roll like that I guess I better try and kill him lol

Hugh tries to surprise the Kobold but it was waiting for him with his spear at the ready. He'll only have one shot at this.
Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Hugh throws everything he has at his enemy, flipping himself past the spear and uses his momentum to try plant his blade to the hilt of the short fiends chest.

Awesome!

Hugh moves behind the statue to hide and strike if the kobolt dashes to or past him.
Stealth: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

Can I stealth behind the statue (which I can do as a move) and prepare my attack for when he comes around to try and find me, thus catching him off-guard and gaining a sneak attack?

Oh hey a 20 =D are we not treating 20's as autohit/crit and 1's as auto miss? Regardless, I'll need to go back and roll either way.

As Hugh begins to make his way in a Kobold rushes right past him. He quickly pokes his head back behind the statue and remembers the crossbow in his hand. He takes a deep breath to gather his courage and whispers "Not today." As soon as he hears Genta curse the closest Kobold he acts.

Hugh drops the crossbow and before it hits the ground he pushes up from the statue. His hands extend palms up with as eastern styled blades quickly appears into his hands. Trying the catch the enemy by surprise he tries the stab the first blade into the back of his foe and then slash the second up from chest to face.

FREE: Drops the crossbow.
SWIFT: Draws both Masterwork Wakizashis (they're loaded in his spring loaded sheaths)
FULL ACTION: Two weapon attacks the first cursed enemy
First attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23
First attack damage if successful: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 21d6 ⇒ 3

Second attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13
First attack damage if successful: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 61d6 ⇒ 1

I applied the sneak attack because he didn't know I was there due to my stealth check earlier (so no DEX to AC and all that). If this isn't the case just bump the AC to what it should be with just the curse and take out the second d6 in the damage)

Try it now. =)

Awesome =D my position on the map should now reflect my actions!

I can't select the left most, I can move everyone else I just can't move that one.

I can't move my character D=

Initiative: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19

"It might be best if I scout ahead a bit. I have a knack for moving around unseen."

MOVE: Pulls out his crossbow.

STANDARD: Hugh, trying not to make a sound, heads to the entrance, taking cover behind the statues and looking in
Stealth: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20

Hugh, since he apparently didn't go through with the band of 3, sighs and then moves through.

Ninjas don't have Disable Magic Device D= It probably would come in handy right now......if our mighty GM wants to exchange that in rather than Poison Use I wouldn't mind =D *wink wink nudge nudge*

Hugh looks to the group "Do the wards keep out just organic material or anything?" He pulls out one of his daggers. "Because if it's the later...."

"Well, if all the cool kids are doing it, might as well dive headlong into a potentially magic monster infested estate, I'm in. Sounds like fun."

My plan to escape your traps

Hugh Sighs. It's an attack on Parliament so I'm slightly perturbed. But I'm also annoyed that it's also more often true that they're fickle with their coin.

And some nobles can't even understand why a sizable faction of citizens have a problem us ruling them, it's not like we bicker at all or anything..." I mumble

"Might as well get done with this."

>They can share any further details if they like, especially what house they come from and their rank.

Hugh is from House Battlestar. A low baronet, his biggest concerns are trying to improve his lot so he can easier help those he cares for but the majority of his efforts have been to improve himself and not his political prestige. A few rumors circulated about his name. He's able to exploit his foes flaws and can blend in to whatever situation he's in, making him hard to pin down in both motivation and personality. Perhaps you shall be the one to find out.

Welp, I'm taking Battlestar lol

I drink and make merry! (or try to) before calling it a night.
