Might as well click this one over to inactive. :(

I will be on vacation for the next 2 weeks. I will do my best to post when possible from my phone, but if I am holding up the game please DMNPC me.
Nim crouches down, ears pinned and tail flicking back in forth as he readies to pounce the approaching threats. Wic pounds his chest and the ground as he waits...
Nim lays down and licks his blood splattered paws as he waits for the Balani to indicate which direction they will travel in next.
Having dropped the last Charau-Ka, Nim uses his magical speed to aid in the attack upon the tentacled horror...
I can confirm that you have not. :)
Nim spares a glance at the thing emerging from the pit as he feels the tentacle land upon his flank. Trusting in Kragnir to deal with the new threat, Nim maintains his focus on the remaining Charau-Ka.
Nim turns on the last opponent...
No worries. Good luck! :)
Nim lets out a ferocious roar before lashing out at the Charau-ka with teeth and claws...
Nim, having transformed into a dire tiger before arriving on the edge of the clearing, bursts forth from the undergrowth with astonishing speed. He charges the nearest Charau-ka and pounces on it...
Nim gets Jawn to message Balani the plan. We'll sneak in as close as we can. When the Charau-Ka detect our arrival she can take them by surprise from the back while we charge in. Tell her I am going to assume the form of a tiger when we get closer. Just so she knows not to put an arrow in me by mistake.
By all means, you can take point, and with a healthy lead on the rest of us, but we should be somewhere close by should things go awry.
Nim furrows his brow in concern. We already have a rudimentary understanding of the layout. Do you mean to look for traps?
We could skirt the wall to the south and try to take the Charua-Ka around the pit out first. Or we could try and explore the nearest ruin first, then move to the pit area. I would think the central area to be where the Charua-Ka congregate the most densely. What say the rest of you?
We should deal with the Charua-Ka first.
Nim returns to the group, retakes his human form, and informs the others of what he saw.
After two days of Nim looking around the jungle from the air he finally spots a large ruin ahead and reports back to the city. You make your way to the eastern edge of the ruin...
Nim swoops down lower to get a better look at the various ruins, trying to spot signs of recent activity or inhabitants. He does not tarry, giving each area a high speed fly by, except for the fallen tower in the eastern part, which he circles before moving off to rejoin the others and report what he has seen.
Nim takes a few steps, raising his arms as he goes. Feathers begin sprouting all over his body and after a stride or two more he tucks his legs up and takes to the sky in the form of a majestic bird of prey...
Let me do the overflight first, so we can form some sort of plan, and then you can lead the approach from the ground. Any sign of trouble, that I am compromised, I will return to the group.
Seems simple enough. Should I need to convey more I would just revert to my human form for a time.
What do you say Balani? :) Mask to Nim then I guess? EDIT: If Nim takes the mask, his ring of protection +1 becomes redundant. One of you can take the amulet (Balani?) and one can have Nim's ring (Kragnir?).
Nim returns Mihai's nod. I will do my best... without getting too close.
Nim suggests an aerial reconnaissance, in bird form, of the ruins to get a feel for the size, scope and rough layout of the place.
Nim peeks out between his fingers at the sound of Kragnir sundering the obelisk. Seeing nothing untoward happening he drops his hands. Never can be too safe, he shrugs before picking up the mask, headband and the spear. Holding out the headband to Balani he says, Seeing as how everyone else is wearing one already, you might as well take this for now. We can always sell or trade it later. Hefting the spear and admiring it for a moment he adds, It is a fine weapon. Would you use it? Turning to Kragnir he asks skeptically, What about you? Would you wear the mask?
Nim steps well back of the Obelisk, having some concern about the ramifications of smashing random minor artifacts of death gods with a large hammer. Anticipating the coming blow, he shields his face with his hands... before moving one to protect his groin.
At Mihai's strong conviction, Nim nods gravely before looking pointedly at Kragnir's hammer. Think that is up to the task? After a moment's hesitation he adds, One could be risking the ire of Nerull destroying it.
Any chance Alex is going to update Kragnir in the near future? Or resume playing? *crosses fingers*
Level up for Nim (6th):
Wic (effective level 7th):
The decision appears made, Nim remarks nodding at Kragnir to finish the downed necromancer.
I have no objection. I saw nothing redeeming about him. Unless you think he can undo the foul magic he placed upon you? What about you Mihai? Can you restore Kragnir's strength? Either way we should strip him of his belongings and bind him if we aren't just going to end him here and now, Nim adds as he begins to remove the man's belongings.
Wic continues to block the masked man's escape route, ready to grab him should he approach. Nim moves to Kragnir and casts a spell upon him to bolster his failing strength. Balani could use some of your luck right about now Mihai!
Wic retreats to the far side of the pit, continuing to block the masked man's escape route and ready to grab him should he approach. Seeing that Wic completely blocks the passageway, Nim steps forward while drawing a spear and hurling it at the masked man...
Balani! Maybe now would be a good time to put something on one of your arrows!
You create a 10-foot-by-10-foot extradimensional hole with a depth of 10 feet per two caster levels (maximum 30 feet). You must create the pit on a horizontal surface of sufficient size. ...
Are we still playing? :P
Nim calls out to Wic to block the passageway and the ape responds dashing forward with supernatural speed. Skirting the pit and making for the narrow entrance hallway, Wic squeezes his bulk into the gap to plug the escape route with his considerable size. Nim joins Wic in his dash to head off the masked man adding his body to the blockade of the narrow defile.
