Feeling the door a better option than going through the wall Edson carefully checks the door for traps. Finding it safe he pulls out his picks and set to work prodding the springs and a moment later lock clicks open.
As the door swings open you can see that this is leads into the sewer, a maintenance entrance of some sort... If there were ever any newer and cleaner sewers, no one in the Wold has ever seen them. They are pristine, except for the small stream of refuse and water in the bottom of the 12' circular pipes flowing from left to right. Other than some Graffiti on the wall saying CN on the wall straight ahead there is no indication as to what lies in either direction.

Brom steps out into the sewer. He holds a hand up to the others and putting an ear to the wind, he listens one direction and then another, listening for the slightest sound that would indicate their next step.

James Dietz CoDM Tuesday December 9th, 2014 12:17:02 AM
Brom scans the tunnel ahead and determines the sound of flowing water to be stronger coming from the right and decides the group should take the drier of the two paths. Peza agrees and Edson start down the tunnel scouting for traps aided by Gerox dancing lights.
After traveling a short distance the sewer turns a corner and it becomes evident that this direction leads further under the city. At regular intervals the tunnel branches in 2-3 directions, the water from each combining as they flow past the League Adventurers. As you approach the first intersection Edson, aided by Gerox light notices a "CN" painted on the wall of the furthest right passage.

Barratore moves with the group, spending the majority of his time looking back and behind the group. Plenty of eyes were facing front already and so there is no need to worry about a threat from that direction. His sword and shield remain at the ready and the minotaur tries his best to stay focused on the task at hand. His success is debatable.

"To the right" he whispers to the group at the next branch off. He points to the CN marking so the others can see.
Part of him was hoping they were not being tricked into taking the wrong path, and lead down here to be killed.

You would think it would be the first place authorities look. It is so cliche."

You follow the graffiti on the walls, always moving up stream. One left turn and one right. The entire way Edson keeps his eyes peeled for traps, but finds none. After what feels to be about 20 minutes of walking the water flow seems to dry up. At the end of the tunnel is a large metal door like you would see in a submarine with a "wheel" for a handle in the center.

Gerox looks at the impressive door and wonders aloud, "That is a serious door. Why...? Do you think they could flood the tunnels and keep the water out of their lair? That would be bad." Gerox starts looking around nervously. "I mean I could dimension door out but I couldn't take all of you with me. Maybe one or two but not all..."
Gerox looks around again and says, "Or do you think all the water is on the otherside of the door. If we open it, will we get flooded?"

Barratore shifts a bit uneasy. If the door they were about to open was indeed holding back a massive amount of water, he was going to be hard pressed to keep Edson and Peza from being swept off. He might even have to deal with Brom and Gerox. The thought disturbs him enough that he hears himself blurting it out before he can stop it, "Be careful up there"

James Dietz CoDM Friday December 12th, 2014 7:22:28 PM
Peza remains silent as Gerox scans the area for magic and Edson scans for traps. Finding nothing the group prepares for the worst as the young rogue turns the wheel to the door. Water does not come spewing forth as once feared, but the door is weighted so that it swings open as soon as the wheel is turned.
As the door swings open you see a large room with one main gathering table. Hanging on the wall is a complete plan for the sewer system. There is a main chamber and 6 doors that lead off, three to the right and three to the left. When the door opens, three of the CN are there with crossbolts loaded pointing at the group, perhaps it was not a good idea for Barratore to call for everyone to be careful. As you stare down the shafts of their bolts you realize that one of them is Cinnaminsen. Her eyes narrow as she shouts, "You! What are you doing here!"
The boy next to her curses. It is a your fault. He yells at her. You led them here and now we are all doomed.

The teen aged Brom sees the teen aged kids with the bolts pointing at him. He knows the others are trying to talk them down easy, but Brom doesn't care. He just shoots off his mouth anyway.
"Don't point those at me!" He says stepping forward a step. "Ya want a beatin'? I'm gonna give it to ya. If any of those goes off," he says pointing to the crossbows, "you'll pray for death.

From his spot down the hall and with the others in the doorway itself, Barratore hears little, sees less and puts nothing together. Brom was shouting at someone, but that was not really reason to get jumpy. Brom shouted and threatened breakfast on some days.

As things become more tense Peza lowers her own crossbow in an attempt to diffuse the situation and moves cautiously forward to door opening. Showing no fear the young girl firmly states "You know who we are ... your no match for us. Then points out to Cinnaminsen that you met before and explains you are not there to harm her, you just need to talk.
Gerox backs Peza up, explaining that he didn't save her earlier from the a creature only to strike her down now.
Barratore keep his attention to the party's rear, but with the conversation going on in the next room he seems a bit distracted.
Brom takes a different approach, threatening to beat the crap out of the group if they do not surrender as Edson tries to convince them that they have done noting wrong.
As Peza and Gerox speak the group appears to be relax a little, the tips of their crossbows lowering ever so slightly. However that effect is only temporary. As soon as Brom begins shouting and Edson chimes in that they have done nothing on they tighten their grips and realign their sights.
I told you she was responsible. You are SO going to pay for this! shouts the boy next to her.
I didn't invite them, did I? She shouts back. If you want to talk, sheath weapons. You can talk from there. You can't expect to break into someone's house and expect them to be all...submissive...and stuff...Erm...Why are you here, and what do you want.

More shouting some different voices and the crew is standing about the doorway still. Nothing is happening near or about him and with a final scan across the area, Barratore shrugs and moves up to the rest of the group. Nobody seems to be too concerned about a battle and so Barratore decides to sheathe his sword as he steps up to get a better view of what is going on. Arriving at the doorway, he stoops to get a look at who the group was talking to.
Barratore still sees little and with the area at least being dry, the minotaur has a seat and leans against the wall.

Gerox encourages the group to speak in one voice and takes a step forward. Immediately you see the expressions on the tree tense and you quite certain it would be unwise to take another step toward them. Perhaps the only thing that kept them from firing was the fact that he was clearly unarmed.
Barratore moves closer to the door to get a better view of what is going on and has a seat, leaning against the wall. Edson too, knowing his bluff didn't work, decides it best to shut up and wait as Brom expresses his displeasure with the situation and reluctantly sheaths his sword.
In the end Peza, holding her position at the doorway, is the one to trying to have a discussion with them.
That doesn't answer nothin. The boy responds. You still haven't told us why you came down here and what you are looking for.
It sounds like the Guard sent them. says Cinnaminsen.
Why would the guard send them rather than coming themselves? The third boy chimes in.
If you give them a chance, perhaps they'll tell us. Cinnaminsen shouts back.
I bet it was you pop. he shouts back. Cinnaminsen's face hardens and grows slightly red. Instantly the conversation stops.

At the mention of her parents Cinnaminsen's face turns cold and she gives a fake laugh. Mom and dad are always fighting. They don't care about us. They barely know we exist unless the want to yell at us...so when I turned 18, and some of my friends came here, I did too. I have no other prospects and Angeni likes me. Her face turns red when she says this. There was nothing for me there. She quickly says and drops the subject.
When Peza asks "the others" she looks at the others, hesitating. After a few seconds, and eying Barratore's sword she opens up and says, "They are out on an operation."

Brom continues into the sewers making his way to the surface. At the second intersection a thought enters his mind, as if whispered by something barely audible or just on the other side of his consciousness...follow the water...
Suddenly three living spells come into view. One down the passage in front of him, one to his left and one to his right. Each are about 40ft away. The rest of the League Adventurer's are two rounds away if they were to run.

Gerox frowns at the young woman's words, "I know parents can be cruel at times. Mine drove me to sea but still deep down I know they love me and I love them. Going down the path your heading could lead to a bad end for you. On the ends of a guards blade or dangling from a noose. Are you sure that this is the life you want for yourselves, your young friends here or your brother?
So why don't you tell me about this operation you have going and who Angeni is?

Barratore finally picks up on some of what Gerox and Peza are talking about. The folks they were talking to, have partners who are not about. Barratore stands up and pulls his sword back out. "People on missions come home. I'm heading back to the last intersection to keep an eye out." he gives the trio a final look in the room and dismisses them. They were about as dangerous as a good breeze. Barratore also didn't think any of them looked related, but they were humans and so he was certainly not sure enough to contradict Gerox, Peza or Edson on the matter.
Barratore moves back down the passage to the last first intersection he comes to

"Typical." says the barbarian. Brom moves back 20-ft from the intersection, drawing his sword, and waits to see if the things come his direction. He wasn't the way the water flowed. If he was correct, they would move away from him. If he was wrong, things were going to get hot.
He readies an attack should they come his way.

Gerox once again tries to soothe the girl, empathizing with her situation and relating his pas experiences of neglect to her. Although she puts on a tough exterior, the mention of her brother has a clear effect on her demeanor and seems to put some doubt in her mind. Things seem to be going well, but sh looks puzzled when Peza begins to speak.
After a moment of deliberation Cinnamensen begins to open up. I know nothing of this Elite Guard you are talking of or of Hellsha. Probably another over paid city guard who only cares about the merchants and rich people. People like that, and those running the city don't care about us. The city take money from those that can't afford it, forcing them into poverty so they can build stuff for the rich like that stupid monument by the water. What good does it do anyone? None. We plan to liberate the gold they took from us and give it back to those that need it. As we speak the boys are hitting the Steel Vault. Once we help the people we can make lives for our selves and move on. It is all thanks to Angeni, he figured it out and organized us, and when he gets back we can start a new life together.
As they speak Edson watches and waits, his hand drifting to his sword, an action that does not go unnoticed by the boys who re-aim their crossbows in his direction.
A bit later Barratore finally picks up on the fact that the CN have partners who are not about and realize that people on missions tend to come home. He then heads back to the last intersection to keep an eye out, an action that relieves the boys more than anything else."
----------------------
Brom moves back 20-ft from the intersection, drawing his sword, and waits to see if the things come his direction. He wasn't the way the water flowed. If he was correct, they would move away from him. If he was wrong, things were going to get hot.
Brom watches as the crackling balls of thick reddish/orange ooze drag themselves along the ground towards him, leaving a fiery trail behind them. They seem to stretch forth odd flaming appendages with sparks dancing along their surface as them move. Their arms dig their blazing fingers into the foul sludge and pull the bulk of their body forward in a lurching, inch-worm fashion until they are only 30ft away from Brom, despite his having moved back. What is worse is that he can see more coming behind two of them and a man behind the third. He remembers that the direction in which he came from was nearly dried up, the start of the water and he realizes why these are the cleanest sewers in the Wold. These things must travel from where the sewage begins by the offices and travel the length of the sewer, obliterating everything in their path only to return again and repeat the process. As if things couldn't get worse his brain begins to tickle ...eat...and he finds himself suddenly starving. An insatiable urge to consume the fetid water at his feet creeps over him. ( Make a DC 15 will save or drink the foul water and become sickened for 1d3 rounds)

Brom once again resists the urge to eat the sludge in the sewers. The sight of more of the living spells causes the man to withdraw back the way he came. He moves back to Barratore's position. "[b]Those fire sewer cleaners are coming this way, a lot of them. And a guy is moving with them."

Tuesday has been following the sludgy creatures for about 10 minutes, fascinated by their interesting behavior and glad that they haven't taken too much interest in him as of yet. "not sure how to get one to go home with me, and not too sure I want to mess with them on my own to get a sample.. " He thinks to himself. Just as he begins casting detect magic to try and gain some insight into the nature of the creatures, he notices a sound, perhaps catching a glimpse of a burly young man with a sword ducking back away from the next intersection in the tunnel, or maybe it was just a shadow playing tricks on him (perception: 27)

Brom once again resists the urge to eat the sludge in the sewers and he moves quietly closer to Barratore, making sure to point out the presence of the new guy. Barratore snorts loudly as Brom tells him about the fire things. "I say we destroy them. Too dangerous to have things like that below everyone's feet. Matter of time before they are running all over the surface."
Meanwhile Tuesday Shiner continues following the sludgy creatures, not yet sure how to get one to go home with him or how to profit off of them...there has to be a way. Suddenly he catches a glimpse of a burly young man with a sword ducking back away from the next intersection in the tunnel. Then he hears a voice..."Hey, ya wanna fight? You with the thieves? Speak!"
---------------------------
Peza, eeling frustrated with the youngsters stubbornness shakes her head .... " you got the right attitude about helping people but going about it all wrong she then does her best to convince the young girl there is a better way.
She looks interested, but shakes her head. I can't go anywhere without my brother. She is speaking faster now and you realize that she is beginning to panic. It seems that the revelation of the Elite Guard has shaken her and her concern for her brother is ever increasing. You have got to help him. It was all Angeni. He told us it would be safe, that the city would never notice what we took. I told my brother he was too young!
--------------------------
As the flaming creatures move towards Brom and Barratore a sudden increase in the flow of water from the tunnel opposite the new comer heads towards the intersection and down towards the sewer entrance (away from both Brom/Barratore and the new comer). Once again you feel a sudden impulse tickle the back of your mind....Follow the water...Eat... Suddenly the living spells begin to churn and lurch away after the sudden increase of flowing refuse. Every once in a while a particularly large chunk of waste bursts into flames as the deformed protrusions reach out and clutch them. A moment later the passages are clear, and with the exception of a few charred scorch marks slowly slowly fading as the water washes over them the passages are once again spotless.
Ooc: We cannot have combat over the Holidays due to players being out of town and unable to post. If you really want to fight them, you can hunt them down later...although it might effect the health of the city to have the sewer cleaners disappear.

The threat gone or at least the fun and Barratore puts his attention to the man Brom mentioned earlier. "Man is not likely with the fire things, else he'd gone with them."
Barratore thunders an answer down the sewer corridor to him as he moves 30' closer and sheathes his blade. "I am Barratore Steelwind of Starlight clan." The nearly 10' tall minotaur in full plate armor folds is arms casually across his frame. "We are looking into a thieves guild network." He pauses very briefly and adds. "Your turn!"

Gerox recognizes that this man, Angeni, is the one responsible for trying to organize the children into a thieves guild and makes plans to have a conversation with him. It is clear that the charismatic leader has been recruiting and taking advantage of those children in the city who have lost hope. At this point Cinnamensen begins to break down, still disturbed at learning about the Elite Guard, and she begins answering Gerox questions much more forthcoming than before. She nods as she tries to hold back tears...her brother is with Angeni. She had told him he was too young, but Angeni insisted saying a person could only be trusted after they helped the group. Edson Highlight to display spoiler: { From your experience in the thieves guild you know this a common practice. Thieves are much less likely to turn others in if it can be proved that they took part in the crimes as well}
The plan is to hit the steel vault itself and redistribute the money to those in need. At Peza and Edson's urging she agrees to go with you and show you where they plan to hit the vault from, an underground attack digging directly up into the vault from the sewers. With luck the theft will not be discovered until the next day. The two boys stay where they were, not moved by Gerox argument or Cinnamensen's plight.
------------------------------
Down the hall Tuesday looks at Brom and Barratore with confusion. His interest was in following the living spells and finding a way to use them to turn a profit, he was a businessman after all. Barratore reasons that if Tuesday was with the sewer cleaners, or being controlled by them, that he would have left when they did. Quick introductions are made and some healing done as a show of good faith, and soon the trio is headed back towards Cabal Nocturn's lair.
As you move down the sewers the two parties reunite and everyone is caught up on what has happened. Cinnamensen explains that the vault is about a quarter mile away, and by now the group should be just about ready to break through to floor. Please let me know any plans you make, spells you prepare, weapons drawn, marching order, what you do with Cinnamensen, etc.

(ooc: I had to get rid of quite a bit of my equipment since it was non-core -oops-. I'm not sure if I should replace it with core equipment now or later, but the items I would replace them with would be an amulet of mighty strikes (spell storing) previously charged with bestow curse, a crafted belt of giant's strength +2, and a wand of mage armor. If I am carrying those items, I will use the wand to cast mage armor on myself and anyone else who wants it.)
Glad to be able to aid in putting an end to a notorious thieves' guild, Tuesday prepares for a confrontation. He checks to make sure his wands are in order and accessible, that his pick is ready at his side, and his shield secured to his arm. "Just before we break in on the thieves I can give sanctuary to whoever goes in first, making it very difficult to attack them unless they initiate. That would give the rest of us time to move in and assess the hostility levels in the room, maybe talk them down from their folly. I could harmlessly paralyze their ringleader to keep him from weighing in, if the young lady would point him out, or even enthrall the lot of them with a speech about better opportunities."
He shakes his head "What a mess, people need to be able to trust in their valuables' safekeeping. I know quite a few families that would be out on the streets if that vault were despoiled."
Taking three platinum rings out of his pocket, he hands them to Edson, Barratore, and Gerox. "With these I can shield any one of you and take some of the brunt of your wounds, if it becomes necessary - or, get them to whoever makes strategic sense."
Tuesday smiles "Of course, that's my two cents - I've fought pirates and beasts with the crew of Spixle's Spicer and done my part volunteering with the city defenses, but you all have been mixing it up together for a while"

Returning to CN's hideout Brom hears the rundown on what's happening. Brom doesn't seem surprised by the scenario. "This kind of thing was regular in Dirt City. I'd been one of 'em if not fer my uncle."
"Shiner, I wouldn't worry 'bout hostilities...they're gonna be hostile, guaranteed." He says.

Gerox says, "OK lets go find your brother and get you two squared away." He glances at the other two lads and says, "Boys, You can stay here if you choose but I doubt this Angeni is going to be in a forgiving mood once he figures out what happened. He might not trust you two anymore and dump your bodies where those fire creatures can dispose of them. Your choice but if you don't come now and I see you working against us, I will cut you down without remorse. Last chance. Want to come?" (diplomacy roll of 15)
Gerox greets the new cleric and accepts his ring but questions, "Are you sure you want me to have this. I tend to avoid the sword play when I can and stand behind big hairy folks with horns."

Tuesday replies to Gerox's welcome with a customary Gnomish greeting, and then says: "Ideally we'd all have one, but I'm really only prepared to cast the spell once today anyhow. Perhaps it would be best to give yours to Cinnamensen, they may not take kindly to her change of heart."
He turns his gaze to the two boys, getting a good look at their faces: "And you guys, I would listen to the good gnome's advice - we will remember you when this all shakes out, and showing signs of turning a new leaf will reflect well on our recollections." (Perception:37) (Diplomacy:23)
If Cinnamensen accepts the ring, Tuesday casts shield other on her:
Shield other: +1 to saves and +1 deflection bonus to AC, shares half damage with Tuesday, duration: 9 hrs.
Edson Kazil(Shawn), AC 26,Touch AC 19, Flatfooted AC 12, HP 52/52 Monday January 5th, 2015 10:15:08 AM
Edson takes the platinum ring from Tuesday. He looks it over, but not understanding the magical nature, has it fly over his head. He puts the ring on anyway, thanking Tuesday as he does.
Turning to Cinnamensen " that is a psychological tactic of theirs, to make you part of the crime thus incriminating yourself. Now you will not run to the authorities.

Barratore readies his shield, draws his blade and declines the ring from Tuesday and also suggests Cinnamensen wear it instead. Barratore will take up the rear guard position as the group moves.

Tuesday returns Peza's smile "Waard, eh? It may seem like good fortune to us, but Ffloy has a plan for this city which doesn't include letting a bunch of thugs ruin people's confidence in doing business here. I'm playing my part in that plan, is the way I see it. Pretty good for an unexpected opportunity! Gotta take 'em as they come."

Gerox hands his ring over to the young lady saying loudly so her friends could hear, "She how your fortunes are improving? Have you ever gotten a magic ring before?"
