Takeda is a Lawful Neutral kind of fellow. Practicality is his motto. And what is practical right now is getting out of Riddleport as they say. He's made some enemies and needs to exit the city sooner rather than later. Aiding his country, for he is a loyalist, while removing himself from those enemies seems to be a win-win.

Takeda rushes up to the caster (50' movement) and plants an open palm into the beasts center. "Nice opening attack. I share mine." Takeda says taking up a defensive stance. (fighting defensively) Atk plus stunning fist: 1d20 + 11 - 1 ⇒ (12) + 11 - 1 = 221d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5 DC 19 Fortitude save

As he is able, Takeda throws a series of punches and kicks at the nearest tasloi shifting targets as any drop. Atk: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (12) + 11 = 231d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Spiderwalk seems to be limited to a move of 20' so I was not supposing we were closing in very quickly. Since boulders can be ostensibly bad for one's health, Takeda moves along the ceiling as quickly as the spell enables. He takes advantage of it all the way into the tasloi hold above the landing. Once in the room or cave that the tasloi are using as their defensive position he leaps down to engage in hand to hand. ROLLS AS NEEDED: Acrobatics: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (11) + 12 = 23 Atk: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (11) + 11 = 221d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Takeda scrambles along enjoying the sensation of walking on walls. Finding his wall walking speed is much slower than his regular speed he settle into rhythm until he makes it across to the tasloi guard post.

"I can cross the bridge before they hurl rocks but then it puts me on the far side alone dodging boulders and reptiles. So, I'll just wait and see how the bomb lobbing goes." Takeda says adding to the conversation.
M Tiefling Magus 1 | HP 11/11 | AC 18 TAC 14 FF 14 | F+4 R+4 W+2 | Init+4 | Percep+6, darkvision | Current effects:
Assuming the bridge is as depicted, are there any guards? Is it really 10’ wide or thinner? Does it appear solid or poorly kept? Can we see the far side? If so, back to the first question, are there any guards?

”I guess we’ll test that speaking thing later.” Takeda says and quickly closes the distance with the thing. Effortlessly moving into crane stance he delivers a palm strike to its abdomen (stunning fist). Stunning fist: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (16) + 11 = 27 FOR DC 19

Where is he standing or coiled? Was he blending into the shadows or the walls themselves? Can I tell why we were not able to see him when we came in? Secret door open behind him? "Whoa!" Takeda says in surprise then he grins. "I bet you know where the prisoners are held. Can you speak?"
M Tiefling Magus 1 | HP 11/11 | AC 18 TAC 14 FF 14 | F+4 R+4 W+2 | Init+4 | Percep+6, darkvision | Current effects:
"Ooo, good eyes. Master Jaidu, you care to lead the way to ensure we do not trigger something unpleasant? Phoibe, since it is rather narrow, would you be interested in following? I believe your glaive would give you excellent reach." Takeda then hangs back to take up his position in the rear of the marching order again.

Takeda, having dropped the key to the fround when hanging from the ceiling, hustles back to the center of the room to retrieve the forgotten key so that he may fit it to the door. Once unlocked, he swings it open. ”And our prize is?

"That's impressive," Takeda says to Hanupah when he sees him climb up the wall. He drops the key down and then drops himself. "there didn't seem to be a good way to test for traps so I thought I would just wing it. [b]"Had I been thinking, I would have asked our natural climber here to check it out. As for the other direction, lead on my fine rat faced fellow. I shall watch your back." Takeda says and follows Jaidu.

"A test of climbing skill perhaps?" Takeda aks. "I'm not the greatest at it, but I'll give it a try." He says as he walks up to the rungs and grabs hold. If he reaches the chest he will try the latch. Climb: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (18) + 10 = 28

"Well, that's not quite what I meant but hey, let's get moving." Takeda says before heading out. He heads down the hall and inspects the intersection. Seeing the door to the north just within the limits of his darkvision, he turns that direction and keeps stealthily moving forward. Perception: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (10) + 15 = 25 Stealth: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (15) + 12 = 27

Still feeling this character out, if I could, I'd like to take back the idea of covering in feathers when I do barkskin but just stick with the rough looking skin as the spell description gives.

True statement. He most likely had no idea what Takeda said. So much the better but still, no way to get info. "Well, if we can't interrogate him, what do we do with him. Leave him tied up? We could assume any surviving our passing will come check on this area eventually."
M Tiefling Magus 1 | HP 11/11 | AC 18 TAC 14 FF 14 | F+4 R+4 W+2 | Init+4 | Percep+6, darkvision | Current effects:
"Ok, you, what lies ahead? answer straight or I'll, I'll shave your armpits." It registers what he just said and Takeda smacks himself in the head with a big sigh. "Somebody else really needs to do this. I am just poorly qualified." (Intimidate -1)
