So is this rebooting GM?

Either continue or reboot I'm here. You might want to PM the party members to see if they are still up for this...
Yes, the continuity is hard... I PM'ed GM Shadoven yesterday - he replied and said he's just moved house I think but says he is committed to continuing.
S'koth peers at the door, wondering aloud if the embedded wood chunks might be missile ammunition of some sort. He later kneels down and gingerly examines the Dire Rats, prodding them with the blade of his longspear, making certain to keep them away from his nose or mouth. Knowledge (nature), trained: Heal, trained:
"Sschknorfle!!! Gaaaah. What? Whaaa?... Ah. Yesss, hmmmm." S'koth passes his scaly hand over his face, clearing bleary sleep from his reptilian eyes. He lurches up, tail assisting his rise before taking stock of the room and personnel. Following that he adjusts his armor straps, sheathes his falchion and sighs heavily. "Okay! Let'ss carry on!" He kneels down by the sleeping kobold and gently rocks him. "Meepo! Kashvakhar hesskor sskrakau kravatchi!" Draconic: "Meepo! Great deeds await brave kobold!"
S'koth is keen for Yenli's idea of two on a watch - he gladly accepts her offer of aid on his watch. He decides not to wake Meepo letting the little kobold get his rest.
S'koth asks Meepo if he heard the noise and if he thinks there was any chance it might have been the white dragonling.
S'koth sits up, bleary eyes sharpening into focus. "Ghaaaah! What happened?"
Sssnorr-ssnorr, ssnorr, ssnorr-ssnorr. Perception:
S'koth will take second watch before Hedroth. And sleep fully armored, falchion nearby, but prone.
Oh well. ;) Perception: S'koth "sleeps" fully armored resting on his tail, and falchion in hand. ;P
Taking the half + 1 hit points as well for Barbarian multiclass. (S'koth is getting a bit primal far from his training school...)
Not able to level up till tomorrow/night. Sorry for the delay...
S'koth opens the case, pulling out a tattered map. He looks at it for a moment before handing it to Hedrroth. "Here Hedrroth, I think this is this place, but it looks like the key is in Goblin." He breathes heavily for a moment. "Let'ss hole up for the night, either in the ssarcophaguss room or where the ratss attacked Meepo. We can decide where/which way to go in the morning." To Meepo: "Sphak getto, kravatchi - ek nassto elbek, prahto ssi." Draconic:
We'll halt for the night kobold - then work out a new plan on the morrow"
S'koth makes sure to gather up the remaining jewelled eyes from the skeleton's (if Hedroth hasn't already) worthless or not. He offers one to each member of the party (including himself and Meepo) as a keepsake and gives the remaining to Rifiki for "safekeeping" unless anybody particularly wants more.(If Hedroth already took them he asks for one as a keepsake.)
S'koth surveys the carnage before rushing toward the southern room. He smiles. "Svarkh hess, kravatchi - vu qandrah!"* enthuses S'koth, helping Rifiki with Meepo and dusting the little kobold off.
* Draconic: "Nice gutting, kobold - a heroic completion!"
Fort save Feeling the foul teeth pierce his scaly hide, S'koth roars in annoyance and frustration - seeing Meepo go down angers him more than he realised it would. He lashes out at the vile bags of soon-to-be blood and bone... (I'm confused by what you mean by "5' from" - do you mean adjacent? - I'm assuming if they attacked S'koth and Zar, he can attack them?)
Yep! Glad to hear everything's ok! My boy is two and a half now, but he was back in hospital less than eight hours after we left when he was born... I know what child-emergencies can be like!!!
Bump GM?
Surprise Round: Claw Attack:
Round 1: Claw Attack:
Initiative:
GM - are we having initiative? S'koth is planning to go all natural attacks on the square the first dire rat enters...
S'koth fixes the elf with a steely stare. He makes a great show of dusting himself off, then bends down to pick up a faded jewelled eye from one of the skeleton's skulls. He holds it up to his own eye and appears to look through it. "I'm not ssure we will ssee eye to eye on nobility Melissaria. I had no inkling the kravatchi wassn't in the room. I'm not ssure if you noticed either while your heart'ss blood was sstaining the ground, nor while we battled these horrors from beyond the grave. Your people's bones, might I add, perhaps ignobly. Careful who you sscold, we may be beassts and animalss to you, but we've kept you alive while you sstare down your nose at uss." S'koth casually tosses the jewel to Rifiki. He places his falchion back in it's scabbard, flexes his claws and licks his teeth. "When you are all done, I'm ready. Perssonally I don't care to ssacrifice oursselves for the kravatchi. Our tassk is locating the townsfolk. Gaining the dragon is ssecondary, and thuss, to me, is Meepo. Sstill, I'm ssure IF we resscue him, he might just wet himself.... S'koth pauses momentarily.
S'koth breathes heavily, spittle ying from nostrils and mouth. Evidently relieved to see Melisaria safe he turns suddenly to Yenli's predicament. With a snort the reptilian juggernaut swings at the vermin. (Targets Rat #1) Attack Falchion
Bite
[EDIT - well that makes it all fairly academic doesn't it! ;p]
S'koth breathes heavily, trying to master himself. He drops his shoulders and launches a ferocious attack at the last skeleton, even biting with his great reptilian teeth! Power attack with falchion:
Bite:
S'koth is oblivioud to Rifiki's call, as he leaps at the remaining skeleton, yelling while Melisaria's blood pumps out. Move Action - close for melee
S'koth ululates a warcry, his mouth deformed in a feral rictus grin. AoO on Skeleton 3
Round 2
S'koth roars, feeling hemmed in with Melisaria all but surrounded, his falchion flashing in the dusty, dim candlelit room. Attack skeleton to south of "SK". Falchion: Power attack:
I'm guessing these guys have DR... ;)
"Ghuukkh... Ssar issai" shrieks S'koth, faltering slightly. Draconic:
"No!...The dead walk" Will save:
"Skathraiss!" exhales S'koth, evidently a prayer or Draconic oath. He steps inside to secure the area, looking around but touching nothing.
I am in Australia, so that gets a bit hinky. Not sure I could manage anythinh other than Pbp. I'm happy with the pace - puzzles are tricky - that's their thing I guess...
Fine GM! Looks like we were too stupid to say the magic words to Meepo though. :)
"Or Meepo's." he adds, before frowning - "The trackss do sseem to passs from fountain to door - right Rifiki?" S'koth naively ignores the fact that the rest of the party has eyes or brains, stereotyping the Drow Rogue as the "Scout". S'koth turns to Meepo: "Skava grek skorsha Drakos vodrat? (points at fountain) Kinko sklaro chi?" Draconic:
Have you seen Dragon fountains before? Do we need blood to open door?
S'koth blinks quickly. "Good thinking Melisaria! Maybe we need to cut Yenli and drop her blood in the fountain!" S'koth jests, half seriously.
S'koth looks around, taking in the grandeur of the carvings, the fountain - sniffing the air as if that alone would bring him closer to his Draconic heritage. His reptilian eyes finally fix on the carved door on the western wall. He stands in front of it, shivering in the unearthly chill. He hunches his shoulders, grips his falchion tight and utters one dread word: "Ashardalon!"
Ok. Thanks for the heads up GM.
S'koth turns to the rest of the party with a pained expression on his reptilian face. "Hrrmm. Ssorry about thiss. Rifiki? Care to tesst the door? Zar you watch Rifiki, Melissaria and Yenli sstay alert. I'll take Meepo to the rear for now. We only have him to lead the way until we decide we're better off on our own - we might not need him right now as he hasn't been thiss way and doesn't know what lies beyond thiss area, but Calcryx will need to recognise him, (thinks for a moment) or tell uss a messsage we can give the dragon. I fear Meepo will get uss into trouble..." He turns on the kobold and gabbles in Draconic quickly: "Vatchkass Meepo! Vissho kerpa tulsi Drakos ffar! Kinkiss magi? Kinkiss grachsö?" Draconic: "Meepo be careful! You need to be wise like Dragon! You know magic spells? Can you fight?"
