Jimmy sidesteps to the corridors right side. Placing himself between the man and the exit through wich we entered through earlier. Nodding towards Naz to cirkle the other way, so we block both ends of the corridor.
Jimmy tries not to act threatening but at the same time he wont lower his guard down just yet.
"The name's Keldemar," he says as he lowers the point of his sword, "I was uhh.. visiting the temple when I heard the child cry out. What's going on?"
"The name's Keldemar," he says as he lowers the point of his sword, "I was uhh.. visiting the temple when I heard the child cry out. What's going on?"
Naz sneers at Keldemar, "What do you take me to be!" He raises the tip of his blade higher. "I say that this one here is the leader of these scum!"
"HA! Good one... I'll remember it for later. But Seriously. What were you doing in here. And I do think that this is your Last chance!"
"And Naz. If he were realy the leader of the Kobolds. I dont think that kobold would have tried, so obviously bad, to frame him. No, I would like to hear more of why he's here."
"Whoever, or whatever you are, you have until I dislodge my sword from this carcass to tell me the truth," I say in a voice so cold your skin tingles as though frosted.
"Uhh.. Ok, ok! I was robbing the place, when I heard the noise. I'm not in league with the kobolds, and I don't know what's going on."
"Ohh." small pause
"Ok. Any lu- I mean would you mind helping us rid this place of these intruders?"
"ehhh, that is" Jimmy clears his throat while he quickly throws a glance in Nastasias direction.
"That is if you help us we might put in a good word for you in your later trial!" Jimmy finishes with a lot of bravado and gusto in his voice. Not unsure and not forgiving for what the man in front of him has just done!
Bluff (1d20+7=18)
Jimmy quickly turns towards the child to change the subject...
"We saw a cat earlier. Out by the entrence. Nastasia, do you remember if it was black or not?"
"Uhh.. Ok, ok! I was robbing the place, when I heard the noise. I'm not in league with the kobolds, and I don't know what's going on."
"Scoundrel scum, stealing from the mouths of babes, and the hands of gods. When this crisis is resolved, I will see you tried for what you have done, and your only hope of mitigation is the actions you choose now."
A sickening sucking sound fills the room as I finally pull my sword from it's draconian sheath, turning to Jimmy, "The cat was , and friendly to me... Oh dear..."
Jimmy slowly shakes his head, totaly befuddled.
Relaxing his stance and lowering his rapier he walks past the new acquaintance. "Names Jimmy by the way." Looking curiously into the other room. "You know you realy should have a lookout when you enter a place like this."
When he reach the door Jimmy gives it a quick lookover to see if there are any surprises waiting in store. At the same time he murmurs to noone in particular. "Shouldnt it feel more awkward taking orders from a child?"
I flick my sword, removing the last few drops of all but the clingiest of blood, then follow to the door. I position myself so that I am ready to place myself between danger and the child.
Naz scowls, baring his teeth in time with 'Nastasia's righteous anger. He lowers his blade, however, when it becomes clear that there is some other danger afoot.
"You get off easily, stranger. Among my people we would have taken your hands," he follows the others thereafter. Giving Keldemar a stern glance, 'A thief, and a bad liar...this one had best change profession.'
what is everyones order when entering th door? so far the child is in front followed by jimmy then Nastasia. Also everyone make a initative.
'Nastasia stands next to the boy, ready to throw herself in front of him should danger present itself.
Since Jimmy didnt find any traps on the door he take hold of the handle, check to see that everybode is ready and then slowly turns the handle.
(if the door is locked Jimmy will try to unlock it: Open Lock (1d20+9=25))
At the sign that everyone is ready he will try to pull/fling the door open (depending och whether it goes in or out).
Keldemar walks behind Naz.
Naz follows close behind 'Nastasia, but keeps looking over his shoulder at Keldemar. Until he's seen the man in action he feels uncertain, having him at his back.
As Jimmy searches door to see if there any traps, he sees nothing, as he opens the door. He finds it to be locked, he successfully opens the door. As the door opens you come to a hallway that then leads to a staircase that leads up. There are no kobolds in site in the hallway.
What do you do?
Jimmy holds up a hand to keep the others silent.
Tilting his head to hear if anything can be heard from above.
Then, as silently as he can he takes a step inside while he tries to keep his eyes open for traps.
If he cant find any traps inside the door he will continue walking slowly up the stairs while he checks for surprises.
Listen (1d20+5=9), Move silently (1d20+9=10), Search (1d20+8=23)
Jimmy doesn’t hear anything through the hallway, He seems to be in a bit of a hurry, but he keeps his eyes open.

"They have been busy I see. Wonder how they had time to set all these traps?" Jimmy whispers as he suddenly stops in the hallway.
Jimmy steps up to a stone in the floor crouch down real low and insert a small copper wire. Gives it a few tweaks. (iether an arrow flies through the hall and slams into the wall or nothing happens. The latter is preferably.)
He continues to creep towards the stairs but stops yet again. With a sigh he does the same procedure again.
When he comes to the end of the hallway he flashes a smile at the others while he make a motion with his hand as if ringing a small bell.
He sinks down on one knee in the hall pulls out a small piece of lead wich he carefully wraps around a piece of wire just at one end where it runs through a small hole in the wall. He pulls out a small wirecutter and cramps the lead onto the wire, wich he then cuts.
I assumed that the wire only went somewhere on one side and not the other.
If I cant Take Ten on the last trap then here is the roll for that one.
Disable Device if he cant take ten. (1d20+8=11)
Which probably means I set it off. (But I hope I can take ten on it...)
Jimmy is successful in disabling the two traps, but as he tries to disable the last one he makes a mistake, as the wire snaps. You all hear a bell ring, then the cries of angry 4 kobolds
Order:
Jimmy
Keldemar
Kobold#1
Naz
Kobold #2
Nastasia and Kobold#4
Kobold#3
Jimmy takes a few step forward before the Kobolds emerge from the staircase (assuming there is enough time for this, and that it is possible to hide at the side of the starcase.)
There he tries to hide waiting for the first kobold to notice him or for the last kobold to emerge from the stairs. (Either way it should be a sneakattack against a kobold.)
(Ready Action)
Hide (1d20+9=24), ToHit (1d20+1=3), Damage (1d6=2), SneakDamage (1d6=4)
Which he totaly miss.
As Jimmy tries to sneak attack one of the kobolds he missed trying to stab it,Keldemar it is your turn.
Keldemar swings his sword at the nearest kobold.
As Keldemar misses trying to swing his sword at he kobold. The kobold that Jimmy tried to sneak attack attacks Jimmy and misses trying to attack jimmy with its spear.

"Leave these twigs to me," barks Naz. He bounds forward and swings his blade down on the first Kobold that came through.
"Leave these twigs to me," barks Naz. He bounds forward and swings his blade down on the first Kobold that came through.
As you swing your sword, Naz cuts the kobold's head off Nastasia it is now your turn.
I step directly between the child and the line of advance of the kobolds. I don't think I can reach any from here, so I ready an attack for any kobold coming in range.

As Nastasia readys herself, the kobolds look at Lino, "Get the child!" one of them screams. One of the kobolds moves toward Nastasia, trying to find a way to get around Nastasia. "Don't kill the child... take him to master, he will know what to do!" one of the other kobolds screams to the others. Jimmy it is your turn now.
Jimmy try to make a fancy sidestep move which would have gotten the Kobols completely off guard and could by that move have killed at least 2 of them. But when he puts down his foot he overcompensate his balance and completely miss the opportunity.
Feint, ToHit, Dmg, SneakDmg (1d20+7,1d20+1,1d6,1d6=[4, 7], [1, 1], [1], [5])

Keldemar attacks the last kobold.
Keldemar swings his blade slashing right through the kobold. As most of you can see Jimmy is gone. Lino says "I wish him luck,well lets keep moving."
Jimmy
>snip<Lino says "I wish him luck,well lets keep moving."
Naz smears his hand across the spear wound. 'Tis a flesh wound,' he thinks. Then raises his hand before the others, even as he advances. "There may be worse ahead, let me go first."
Without waiting for assent, the young tall barbarian bounds up the stairs, heading into the doorway the Kobold's emerged from.
Jimmy take a look at the Cat sitting across the hall staring at him. Pulls forth his bow and release an arrow at the black cat.

Without waiting for assent, the young tall barbarian bounds up the stairs, heading into the doorway the Kobold's emerged from.
So also Naz heads up the stairs, Lino nods his head speaking "Well i guess i should give you some information as well since all you heard was that this temple was being attacked." Lino pauses then tells the story as you all walk upstairs.
'Nastasia won't be leaving Lino's side anytime soon. Internally she doesn't trust what is going on, and Lino is as much a suspect as anyone else.
If he decides to go up the stairs, I walk becide him, or in front of him in narrow passages.
And for now, if Naz is content that it is only a flesh wound, I will let him go unhealed.
