I am sorry to say that I am going to need to step away from the table. RL has prevented me from even looking to see how the game has been going. Hopefully when things settle down again I will be able to adventure with you all again.

Rodney answers up. "I am willing to Scout if need be."
Scouting: He slowly makes his way
I am sorry Rodalas
"I am for one do not want to get close to that thing. I could try and weave a spell of a minor illusion to make it think that all it sees is the cage." He offers up.
Rodney just hears 'Bla Bla Bla' But since Baldrick seems to have an understanding with woman, Rodney tries to inspire Baldrick anyway he can. "So do you think they will just give up with out a fight? Are they peaceful Duergars? I have not heard of any before."
"If you start to bend those bars it could make some noise..." He whispers.
When the dwarfs make it. Rodney steps into the bunker and frowns at the sight of the killed Duergar.
"Lets bring the others up." He whispers
Hold up, I see someone up by the arrow slit. He whispers.
Not seeing too well in the dark he runs into a rock ledge and swears and he rubs his head.
"I am fine going but give me 10 min. to cast a spell so if they are talking I can understand what they are saying."
"Hmmm, they look like a creature that I have seen before...."
My wife just got a job teaching in Texas. She was a teacher in Oregon for 12 years. When our child was born she switched to being a stay at home mom for 6 years. Then she decided that she would go back into teaching, so she became a substitute teacher to get her feet wet again. She went back to her old school, and worked one day. She was called every name in the book by her kids, and a kid step up on her like he was going to hit her (she just stepped right on to him and it confused him so much that he backed off). they gave her a radio and told her to call in when a kid/s walk out, which she had to do a lot. She said that she may be taught 10 minutes out of the whole day. This was a 5th grade class room. And she was told that most Substitute teaches for that room would leave and go home before lunch time. She lasted the whole day, but only did it for that day. She did some teaching at other school districts with much better days, but still many of the kids had very poor behaviors. When we moved to Texas she again tried again as a substitute teacher. And it was night and day. Kids were all yes mam, no mam and wanted to learn (for the most part). So now for next fall she will be teaching full time, 3rd grade kids.
As they start out Rodney starts to give a speech on how we brave few will boldly go out into the tundra for fame and glory. he keeps talking for the next 10 minutes.
Hearing that they are walking again, Rodney gives a sigh. He checks his gear and gets ready to go.
Asking the guide "So how long do you think we will be away for? I am think of getting the sled and dog team but I only have enough for a few days at most." Speaking to the shop keeper. "Other than your normal cold gear, do you have any 'special' items that you might have for sale?"
"You say it is a magic lantern? What type of magic is it?" Rodney asks.
"This blasted cold, Why could it not be a storm of never ending mild tropic weather? Nice and warm but not too warm, with a pleasant sun shinning." He says as he sips on his hot drink.
Rodney having his chills and not preforming up to par, moves to have a seat with his companions.
Rodney walks into the inn and right to the fire place. Still shivering he just says "Yes, to anything that is hot and will warm mmmmeeee" with his teeth still chattering.
Same to you and to everyone else.
After singing, drinking, and drinking like a...well like a dwarf. Rodney tries out his new handmade drum.
Once he sobers up. Rodney decides to put the drink away and talk to the dwarfs of their history and customs to better understand what truly is to be a dwarf. This could make a great book. He thinks to himself.
Rodney (aka Rodalas) take great note of what is being said about the gray dwarfs. He tries his hand singing some of the dwarven songs.
With the correct fluency that even amazes Rodney. And even if he did not understand the words that were being sung, he sang like the best of them.
Watch the exchange in the babble of Dwarfs. Rodney realizes he needs a way to understand what they are talking about. Most likely talking about hiding the fair maidens from me. My reputation of being a lady's man must have preceded me. Rodney smiles as he thinks to himself.
Sorry for not posting, I could not log on to this site. I had to open a new incognito window just to log in.
Giving a bow with a flourish "AAhh, my lordly dwarf. I did not know Turq had kin here. I am Rodney Lash and I am grateful for your hospitably. I hope we could have a nice long talk and you could tell me all about the mischief that a young Turq might have gotten himself into."
"I am sure a young Turq's adventures could be made into some fun drinking songs. Such as how many tines Turq got smacked on the bum for dropping his guard in fighting practice."
"It would be nice to preform for the locals. And maybe make some extra coin would never hurt." He says with a smile.
Rodalas, I got an idea of how to get you to an entryway to the Faewilde, but it may have to do with Drizzt... ;) Hope you don't mind! Go for it!!! ;o)
As they are walking along. Rodney picks up a small bucket that was stuck inside a bush but in great condition for being out in the elements. Near it was a piece of leather.
"Come, they told me' pa-rum pum pum pum
He stops, blinks a few times and looks around.
Well for my 3rd level spell I have chosen Leomund’s Tiny Hut. If someone else has that one I can also choose Catnap or Tongues if that works better for the party. And for the magic item he will take the +1 rhythm-maker’s drum.
Please say in will be in the tropics, my feet still needs to thaw out.
I am just here to sing songs of glory.
"This will make an interesting story to sing about" He says as he takes a look around to make sure that the dwarf was alone.
"Well that did not work. We'll have to do this the hard way." And he readies his crossbow to fire once he sees the target.
Rodney drops a Faerie Fire on where the dwarf is hidding.
My dwarf friend speaks the truth. Come out and lets talk about this. You might even make a profit if your truthful."
Rodney sings a sweet lullaby to Turq and some of his wounds start to close.
As he see the knife flashes, Rodney says to the gray dwarf"How do you make an artichoke? You strangle it."
Rodney fallows along. Humming a marching song.
Just to let you know I am in the processing of moving. And with the holidays coming up please BOT me if needed. I will try and keep up with my posts, but at this time my new place does not even have internet service and the soonest they can get there I am told is December 3rd.
Rodney goes with the dwarves to help find out anything. And if anyone is hiding something.
