Kibo (Silenced) d20=1 d20=11
Saturday June 10th, 2000 11:34:59 PM
By all that is good and holy, it appears that the gods have conspired to the ruination of the scout! Kibo somehow manages to catch his blade on a low hanging section of stone, causing the blade to rip free of his hand and drop to the floor. The only saving grace is the effect of the silence field in hiding the sound of the dropped weapon. Foregoing the chance of another fumble, the halfling throws himself at the sentry, hoping to knock him down...

Nonam (7stoneskins) d3+18=20
Sunday June 11th, 2000 4:41:59 PM
Searing flames shoot out of Nonam's fingertips and engulf Assassin #1 (and only ass#1) [burning hands,20pts/sv for 1/2]. Nonam shows no emotion whatsoever. It's like he suddenly turned into a spellcasting machine.

Saire [displaced
Sunday June 11th, 2000 10:11:59 PM
Saire notices that drow #1 is getting walloped good. So he turns his attnetion to drow #2. Saire reaches over his shoudler, grabs the coiled rope and launches it in the air, "Rope! Entangle him!" [pointing at drow#2] Saire runs forward to drow 2

Teko 4d4(3+2+2+2)+4=13
Monday June 12th, 2000 2:29:59 AM
Teko casts an Improved Phantasmal Force of Magic Missle, hitting Drow#1 if hasn't fallen, otherwise hitting Drow#2.

Monday June 12th, 2000 7:57:59 AM
The assassins don't stand a chance against the coordinated attacks of The Three. Onrad's well placed shot into assassin #2's wrist causes the drow to drop his weapon when his hand goes numb (damage roll of 87%). Saire's rope then quickly entangles the assassin, immobilizing him from further action. The other assassin's luck falls the same. Jus' shots peg the assassin as he picks up his fallen blade. Turning, the assassin gets blasted by Nonam burning hands. The drow manages to jump outside the flames before they can do all their damage (save 14), only to be hit by Teko's Illusionary Magic Missiles. The drow unfortunately fails to see their falseness (missed save 12) and falls unconscience from the illusionary damage (made system shock 54%). Down the hall things go much better for the Drow. Since he was running while the darkness was still in effect, Gareth's hesitation let's the drow disengage without giving Gareth an attack opportunity. Likewise, Krait sees that his Wall of Iron would be too late, effectively cutting off the hallway after the Drow has left (from previous posts, cave turns at 60'; can keep spell if desired). The sentry can't help but notice Kibo's failed back stab attempt, let alone the image of his drow compatriot running down the hallway. The sentry spins around pulling out a small handful of darts. Throwing two darts at Kibo and two at Gareth, he withdraws half his movement down the cave. ::Curses! Who did this dice roller, anyway!:: Kibo's luck is holding after all, as both darts meant for him miss their target's badly (a3:ac13 a5:ac10). One of the darts sent towards Gareth manages to hit its mark (a16:ac-1 a3:ac12), doing a dart's minor damage (2 hp) but infusing Gareth's blood with yet another poison (save if poison immunity not still in effect -- and what is giving the immunity?). The running drow is around the corner and can no longer be seen.

Kibo (Silenced) d20=12
Monday June 12th, 2000 3:25:59 PM
With the sentry so close and moving at half-speed, Kibo decides to attempt a tackle, intending to keep the silence field on the drow as long as possible.

Nonam (7stoneskins)
Monday June 12th, 2000 4:34:59 PM
Nonam snaps his wrist and a dagger appears in his right hand. He kneels down and slashes the unconcious assassin #1's throat. He looks over at the one in Saire's rope and says, "Save that one for questions." Then the mage gets up and starts running toward Kibo and the others.

Gareth (Poison Imm., lev) d20=15 d20=6 d20=6 d8+10=18 d8+10=13
Monday June 12th, 2000 7:10:59 PM
The warrior races after the fleeing drow, not waiting for anything. He is unaffected by the poison (sv if needed) and focuses only on catching the fleeing drow. As he runs he disappears from sight and pulls over his shield and speak "Quiet". When he turns the corner he is completely silent and invisible. If he can close on the drow he strikes (AC 1 & AC1 for 31 DMG).

Gareth (Poison Imm., lev)
Monday June 12th, 2000 10:15:59 PM
[OOC: Gareth has poison immunity for 24 hours from the time they left the Well of Darkness. I saved in case it's been longer than that - but I don't think it has. DMs need to decide how much time has passed. Also, he used his ring to go invisible.]

Onrad (Poison Immunity)
Tuesday June 13th, 2000 2:08:59 AM
Onrad breathes a sigh of relief and relaxes. He turns to the drow they defended and the irony of what the party has just done hits him. " Well Drow, let's find out what this guy knows. He steps over to Drow #2 and shows no emotion. Onrad figures this guy will be ready to die. Some other method will have to be found, such as ways sorcerous. He looks longingly at the water, anxious to be on with the task at hand.

Tericus(posion immunity) d20=17 d6+7=12
Tuesday June 13th, 2000 2:50:59 AM
Tericus, seeing that the sentry isnt engaged with anyone, loads his sling with a magical stone and flings it at him, hitting ac -1 for 12 pts of damage. then he loads his sling again, waiting for a chance to strike again

Teko 4d4(4+2+1+3)+4=14
Tuesday June 13th, 2000 3:13:59 AM
Teko heads after Gareth and peeks around the corner to see what's happening. If it's just Gareth and the single Drow, and Gareth hasn't taken out the Drow yet, Teko will have at it with another Improved Illusory Magic Missle spell, doing 14 points of damage.

Jus (1 Stoneskin0 d20+1=9 d20+1=18 2d6(4+1)+2=7
Tuesday June 13th, 2000 10:23:59 AM
Careful in his shot again, to make sure he doesn't his Kibo, Jus lets two arrows loose towards the sentry. Both arrows hit for 7 points of damage.

Krait
Tuesday June 13th, 2000 10:24:59 AM
Krait runs down the hall after Gareth, hoping the drow didn't get away.

DM (JKlinger)
Tuesday June 13th, 2000 10:31:59 AM
Kibo doesn't manage to tackle the drow, but does get close enough to cover him within the silence spell. Tericus' excellent placement with his shot whizzes by Kibo and strikes the drow; Jus' arrows follow close behind. The drow is still alive and still fighting. Gareth rounds the corner and sees no one. The cave branches at 20' and continues to branch into caves of various sizes. No sounds can be heard over the combat behind him. Krait and Teko see no one when they round the corner, both the drow and Gareth are apparently gone.

Drow Sentry d20=17 d3=1 d20=1 d20=13 d3=1
Tuesday June 13th, 2000 10:41:59 AM
In hopes he can quickly even the odds, the drow launches a dart at each of his nearby opponents. The one launched at Kibo hits for 1 point of damage (a17:ac-2 d1). As he begins to launch a dart at Tericus, the dart breaks (a1:fumble) causing him to lose his next shot. The forth and final dart is thrown Teko and scores a hit (a13:ac2 d1). Kibo and Teko must save vs. poison or collapse.

Krait d20+2=4 d20+2=22 d20+2=3 d8+3=11
Tuesday June 13th, 2000 11:06:59 AM
Allowing a moment's hesitation to communicate with Trantiella, Krait turns back and attacks the sentry missing his first attack (a4:ac9). Between swings, Krait yells to those nearby, "Trant's busy with others, but she'll help me find and kill the runner in a few minutes. Let's dispatch the drow and then get you going -- they probably know your plans now." Hacking at the drow again, Krait's next attack is well placed (a20:critical), but Krait can't take advantage of the critical hit (a3:ac10 d11). Again Krait yells, "And make sure none of you touch those assassins, whether dead or alive -- I can almost guarantee it would be bad news!"

Kibo (Silenced) d20=12 d20=16
Tuesday June 13th, 2000 3:04:59 PM
Kibo shrugs off the effects of the poison, and oblivious to the warning to not touch the enemy (due to the Silence) once again attempts to tackle the enemy [hits unmodified AC 1 - disregard armor?] and struggles to pull the drow's legs out from under him.

Nonam (7stoneskins) 5d4(3+1+1+4+1)+5=15
Tuesday June 13th, 2000 4:49:59 PM
Nonam stops running when he hears Krait and casts a magic missile at the sentry as Kibo drags him down. The missiles all find their target and magically avoid Kibo (15pts). Nonam turns around and heads back to the edge of the lake.

Gareth (Poison Imm., lev)
Tuesday June 13th, 2000 8:06:59 PM
The warrior curses as he rounds the corner and sees nothing. He releases his silence and freezes. Hoping to hear the drow using his heightened sense of hearing.

Saire [displaced
Tuesday June 13th, 2000 9:19:59 PM
Saire hears Kraits instructions not to touch the drow. So, he grabs his waterskin, and if that drow begins moving his lips to cast a spell, Saire will squirt water in to his mouth until the drow gags. HOLDING

Gareth (Poison Imm., lev) d20=4

[Perception by 8]

Teko d20=12 d100=80
Wednesday June 14th, 2000 12:39:59 AM
Teko - with roll of 12+3=15 - presumably saves vs the poison. Teko moves to the fork in the cave, listening for any sign of which way Gareth (and the drow that he was chasing) might have gone. Unless, there are obvious sounds being made from the fork, he hears nothing.

Tericus(posion immunity)
Wednesday June 14th, 2000 2:46:59 AM
seeing that either the drow are dead or engaged, Tericus scans the area, making sure there isnt anyone else planning any surprises

Jus (1 Stoneskin) d20=10 d20=20 d20=12 3d6(1+4+3)+3=11
Wednesday June 14th, 2000 1:00:59 PM
Jus, extra careful in his shot to avoid Kibo (-4 attacks), launches two more arrows at the drow. Both arrows hit (a6:ac0, a20:critical), the second buries itself deep, ripping through the drow's flesh (a8:ac-2 d11 total)

DM (JKlinger)
Wednesday June 14th, 2000 1:05:59 PM
The drow sentry falls from Kibo's grapple. Krait and Jus' blows, and Nonam spell are enough to finish him off. The remaining assassin hears the sounds of battle die off. He goes limp. The rope is now entangling yet another dead drow.

Krait
Wednesday June 14th, 2000 1:09:59 PM
Krait looks around, cautious but hopeful that no more enemy is around. "We're gonna try and scry for that last drow; leave him to us. You guys get out of here while you still can." Krait starts running, then quick pauses. Flipping through one of his books, he says "Pop" a couple of times, then drops the pages, some daggers, and a sheath. "Return the pages after you're done, Kibo!" With that, he resumes his run down the cave ignoring any words the party may say. He disappears before taking the first turn, invisible and silent.

Jus (1 Stoneskin)
Wednesday June 14th, 2000 1:10:59 PM
Jus glances over the sentry, careful not to touch anything, but looking for rings or items of interest. He then goes over to the raft and gets on, waiting for the others to join him.

DM (JKlinger)
Wednesday June 14th, 2000 3:40:59 PM
DM (JKlinger) note: The dead drow all have a blank, black insignia. There is no obvious items on the sentry, other than a collection of darts. The assassins, however, are all carrying the dagger they attacked with and several vials of green ichor on the front of their belts. The vials and clothes of the assassins appear to have an oily sheen on them, and the clothes have a peculiar bitter smell to them. The Rope of Entanglement has collected a similar light green oily sheen from the drow it encompases.

Nonam (7stoneskins)
Wednesday June 14th, 2000 4:09:59 PM
Wading out into the lake, the wizard yells hopefully loud enough for Gareth to hear, "Gentlemen, let's go!"

Gareth (Poison Imm., lev)
Wednesday June 14th, 2000 6:37:59 PM
Not hearing anything from the halls, the warrior returns to the cavern. From the air the party hears him. "I didn't catch him guys, he disappeared and went silent. I'd say we get gone now.". With that he boards the raft which will take them across to the well entrance.

Tericus(posion immunity)
Wednesday June 14th, 2000 7:18:59 PM
"Yeah, lets get out of here before we have another army breathing down out necks." Tericus says as he moves towards the rafts and boards them

Onrad
Thursday June 15th, 2000 7:56:59 AM
Still not convinced Krait was not somehow involved the dextrous swordsman hops on the raft. "There's a mystery here, but I think it best we move fast.". When everyone is aboard he directs the raft to the opposite side of the lake.

DM (JKlinger) d100=9
Friday June 16th, 2000 6:12:59 AM
The party takes the raft to the other side of the cavern. Fastened on the wall just above the surface of the water are three thick guide ropes, leading the way into the cave entrance below and the well beyond. Following Krait's directions, you easily make it through the underwater cave and up to the room above the well. It is still dark and decrepit -- and now cold in your wet clothes. This section of the dungeon is in the same shape as the caves below; walls are partially collapsed, and doors have rotted from their frames. Carefully following a cleared path among the rooms of rubble, the party emerges into a chamber with the walkway leading to a well kept door on the far wall. Listening carefully, Kibo can easily hear shouts on the other side of the door (rolled DN=9%). The voices come and go but their source is far away. [Saire, what did you do with your rope? Kibo, did you take or leave Krait's daggers?]

Nonam (7stoneskins)
Sunday June 18th, 2000 6:12:59 PM
Nonam casts a heat cantrip on his clothes in order to try to dry them out after he gets ashore.

Gareth (Poison Imm., lev, Invisible)
Sunday June 18th, 2000 6:44:59 PM
The warrior pulls his shield to the ready position - prepared to go silent. He whispers "How do we get by undetected? Perhaps we can go a ways before having to try the sign or passowrd. I can silently open the door if necessary.". He waits for Kibo's signal.

Onrad (Poison Imm., lev)
Sunday June 18th, 2000 7:32:59 PM
positions himself behind Kibo and waits for the scout to give the go ahead signal.

Tericus(posion immunity) d20=6
Monday June 19th, 2000 1:01:59 AM
concentrating on listening to the voices, Tericus tries to count how many different voices he hears, hoping to figure out how many drow are waiting for them(made per. check by 11)

Teko d100=83
Tuesday June 20th, 2000 12:06:59 AM
Teko will check for traps/alarms on the door, hopefully with success (rolls 83).

Jus (1 Stoneskin)
Tuesday June 20th, 2000 2:03:59 AM
Jus prepares his bow, excitement visibly pouring out of his hasty actions. Whispering, he says, "Well, Teko, what do you think? Can we go now?"

DM d100=11
Tuesday June 20th, 2000 2:15:59 AM
As Nonam's clothes steam dry, Teko checks out the exit. No traps are found on this huge door. The handle is very simple, without any ornamentation or visible locks. The door itself is almost 10 feet high and close to 7 feet wide. Tericus, with one ear against the doorway's hairline crack, is overwhelmed trying to count all the drow he hears. However, there are many voices (you would estimate around a dozen) shouting commands heard above the rest of the din. It sounds like a melee is in progress; Tericus is easily able to estimate its distance at over 100 feet beyond the door [rolled perception for Tericus (wrong die), equivalent to a 2].

Tericus(posion immunity)
Tuesday June 20th, 2000 9:29:59 AM
glances back at the others "Theres alot of people in there, and it sounds like a fight is going on." then he looks at Noonan and Gareth. "Do we wait it out, or do we go in?"

Nonam (7stoneskins)
Tuesday June 20th, 2000 5:22:59 PM
"We've probably waited long enough, we should probably go invisible and hit it."

Gareth (Invisible, Poison Imm., lev) d20=1
Tuesday June 20th, 2000 6:09:59 PM
"OK then. Could be one of the other groups Sturtavent sent down here. Or Millithor. Let's find out...". The warrior quickly puts up his shield, grabs the handle, and pulls open the door (strength by 17/00!). Unless locked, the huge door poses little trouble for the muscular human. Once open he moves through and over to the side, where he draws his sword and waits for the others to get through. When the last one is through, he closes the door as silently as possible behind everyone, whispering (if no drow are near) "We don't want to leave a trail I wouldn't think.".

Onrad (Invisible, Poison Imm., lev)
Tuesday June 20th, 2000 6:19:59 PM
As Onrad hears Gareth begin pulling on the door, he draws his swords and fades from sight. With a seasoned warrior's stare and battle focus, he grinds out "Let's get to it.".

Saire [sorry for the tardy]
Tuesday June 20th, 2000 9:38:59 PM
Saire made sure that he carefully dragged his rope behind them as they rafted across the lake. Hoping the clean cold water will dilute the poison. When Saire enters through the door he turns invisble.

Teko
Wednesday June 21st, 2000 12:18:59 AM
"Here we go then...", Teko says, and before stepping into and through the doorway, casts Invisibility on himself.

Jus (1 Stoneskin)
Wednesday June 21st, 2000 6:40:59 AM
Before Gareth opens the door, Jus quickly whispers, "Sorry guys, but I thought you should know... The only thing I have left for stealth is my Improved Invisibility spells. They're nice, but only last for a short while. Whoever sets the pace beyond that door, please keep it in mind. Oh! We should try and gather at ever hallway turn so we can decide which way to go -- after all, we're all going to be hard to see." Watching everyone fade from view, Jus collects himself then casts Improved Invisibility before the door is opened.

DM (JKlinger)*
Thursday June 22nd, 2000 4:06:05 AM

The door swings easily and silently when Gareth shuts the door. As it shuts, the door appears to disappear. If you pause to try and find the door, part of you is already convinced there isn't a door there to be found -- you know there isn't a door there, so why look? Another part of you knows you just came through, but you still have trouble even thinking about it [two save vs. spells are required to have a chance of looking for the secret door again].

Ahead of you is a long, empty hallway. There are four branches from the hallway, three of which are ahead to either side of the hall.

To the right, a 20' hallway ends in a stairway heading down to the sounds of a large combat that only those outside of silence spells can hear. From your vantage, you can't see the bottom of the stairs, but you can see the top of several drow archers firing their bows downward. Across what appears to be a very large drop are more drow, firing and casting spells downward. Looking down into the fight makes you dizzy as the combat area is continually thrown into total blackness and quickly back into light.

The hallway you are in is immersed in red light as several fireballs explode in the midst of the drow; many fall, but many more are there to take their place.

Tericus(posion immunity)
Thursday June 22nd, 2000 11:03:20 AM
popping a stone into his mouth, Tericus is the first one to move through the door. moving as quietly as he can, he moves to the first corner and watches the drow fight for a bit until he thinks all his companions have moved

Nonam (7stoneskins,invisible) d20=2 d20=5
Thursday June 22nd, 2000 11:03:21 AM
Nonam casts invisibility on himself before moving, and the mage completely loses track of the door after it's closed. Once in the hallway he whispers, "Quickly, to the first doorway." After whispering he uses his catstaff to allow him to move silently, and he hurries down the hall.

Onrad (Invisible, Poison Imm., lev)
Thursday June 22nd, 2000 12:57:31 PM
Looking quickly at the battle and wanting to avoid it, Onrad quickly and carefully makes his way to the first hallway with Nonam.

Gareth (Invisible, Poison Imm., lev) d20=9 d20=1 d20=1 d20=5
Thursday June 22nd, 2000 1:02:41 PM
Disappointed that he does not get to help kill any drow, the warrior takes a good look at the fighting army and then moves on to the first hallway. He pulls over his shield again, goes silent, and looks around the corner. The warrior has no hope of ever finding the door again and hopes they can find their way back to the deep drakes' lair (failed twice). He does, however, notice the house from which the drow hail - just to make sure they are from Baenre (last roll was accidental).

Saire [invisible/displaced] d20=19 d20=14
Thursday June 22nd, 2000 1:02:42 PM
Saire takes note of where the secret door is, then he dashes down the hallway to the first door way on the right.

Teko d20=9 d20=11
Thursday June 22nd, 2000 1:29:14 PM
Teko remembers the door, but moves forward. He moves to the first hallway.

Tericus(posion immunity)
Thursday June 22nd, 2000 7:48:13 PM
(the stone made me invisible, i forgot to type it in)

Jus (1 Stoneskin, Improved Invisibility cast at Dragon Door) d20=12
Friday June 23rd, 2000 12:33:02 AM
Jus wonder's which way everyone is going to go. It would be fun to join the fight and start pushing drow over the edge, but the ol' gruff Gareth would probably complain about that. "Hmmm, I wonder if Gareth would consider that fair combat", Jus wonders to himself. "Nah, he wouldn't care." About to head to the stairs in his distraction, Jus manages to remember their goal. Turning back around he heads over to the first hallway, making a tiny, tiny squeak to let others know he's around (if no drow are seen, that is).

DM (JKlinger)
Friday June 23rd, 2000 12:33:03 AM
A small troop of drow come out of the stairway and split up, some going down the left (western) hallway, and some down the far (northern) hallway that turns to the right. They all seem ready for battle and pass you without a notice. Otherwise, both hallways you see are clear.

The light is fitful at best, but you can make out most of the hallways at this location.

Nonam (7stoneskins,invisible)
Monday June 26th, 2000 9:44:26 AM
Nonam lowers the castaff and just barely breathes out a whisper, "Gareth, you're the leader, where to from here?"

Gareth (Invisible, Poison Imm., lev) d20=2
Monday June 26th, 2000 2:36:29 PM
Scoffing inwardly at Nonam's calling him the leader, the warrior waits until the drow party splits and moves away. He concentrates and tries to reconstruct which direction would orient them under the drow house - preferrably toward the middle (percep/direction sense). Whatever he comes up with, he whispers it to the party and moves out in that direction. If nothing is garnered by his attempt to orient himself, the warrior whispers "Let's go North." and moves in that direction.

Tericus(posion immunity, invisibility)
Monday June 26th, 2000 6:22:24 PM
hearing Gareth say we should move north, Tericus begins to move north, moving slowly, making sure no more drow cross their path

Jus (1 Stoneskin, Improved Invisibility cast at dragons door)
Monday June 26th, 2000 6:22:25 PM
Jus nods his agreement (as if anyone could see), then heads off to the far hallway -- going slow so others have time to check for traps.

Saire [invisible/displaced]
Monday June 26th, 2000 6:56:03 PM
Saire follows to the north, holding close to the sounds of shuffling feet.

Teko
Monday June 26th, 2000 8:37:36 PM
Wary of more drow, Teko remains silent. He heads north with the others.

DM (JKlinger)* d20=18
Tuesday June 27th, 2000 4:03:24 AM
Gareth manages to tell everyone he wants to go to the north hallway, despite the inconvenience of his silence spell .

There are two guards halfway down the hallway, standing with swords drawn. They appear tense, looking around nervously and talking in whispers. The closest is turned towards the far end of the halway, the other towards the party. Neither is aware of your presence.

Nonam (7stoneskins,invisible)
Tuesday June 27th, 2000 11:03:47 AM
While waiting for someone to take care of the guards, Nonam recalls his potion of ESP and drinks it down. Hopefully, it will provide useful information from the drow the party passes.

Gareth (Invisible, Poison Imm., lev)
Tuesday June 27th, 2000 1:50:34 PM
The warrior gives the signal to halt and withdraw. He also tries to remember what he saw as he looked down the other passages as he passed. Were their any guards in them? [Note: I assumed that Gareth would at least look down the other 2 halls as he went by - sorry for not specifying].

Onrad (Invisible, Poison Imm., lev)
Tuesday June 27th, 2000 2:13:17 PM
Feeling Gareth's hand pushing back, he understands he wants to withdraw a moment. He moves back down the hall a few feet and waits for the go ahead.

Gareth (Invisible, Poison Imm., lev)
Tuesday June 27th, 2000 2:14:42 PM
[OOC: Gareth is waiting to get an idea of what we saw down the halls before he engages the drow.]

Saire [invisible/displaced]
Tuesday June 27th, 2000 2:14:43 PM
Saire grabs his rope. He will entangle the 2 drow as soon as Gareth gives the word. HOLDING

Tericus(posion immunity, invisibility)
Tuesday June 27th, 2000 7:39:29 PM
knowing that the others are better equiped to deal with the guards than he is, Tericus waits where he is, though he has a spell ready in case he has to act

Teko
Tuesday June 27th, 2000 7:39:30 PM
Teko steps back and waits for the word on where to proceed next.

Jus (1 Stoneskin, Improved Invisibility cast at dragons door) d20=2
Tuesday June 27th, 2000 9:03:00 PM
Since Jus is being very cautious, he manages to catch on that the party has stopped at the corner (rolled perception). Making sure he is within someone's silence spell first, he pulls out his bow and aims at the drow facing the party, ready to fire if the other drow is taken down by someone else.

DM (JKlinger) d20=18
Wednesday June 28th, 2000 12:02:52 AM
Gareth recalls that the first hallway they came to was clear of any drow. The second hallway was empty for 60', which was the limit he could see. Those that notice, see four drow exit this second hallway and look around. They head down towards the stairs, but stop at the end of the hall before turning the corner. [OOC: please mention if you have a silence spell and it's range, according to the status list by your names, nobody has one active]

Nonam (7stoneskins,invisible,move silently spell) d20=1 d20=18
Wednesday June 28th, 2000 9:09:18 AM
Nonam tries to reach out and find Saire and Gareth and somehow invisibly and silently indicate to them that Gareth should get the drow within his silence spell while Saire grabs them with his robe. (a dex check and a chr check, both made) He isn't sure how successful he is and so tries to read the drows thoughts in the passage ahead while he waits for someone to do something.

The warrior smiles, knowing that the drow will be protecting the most important passage way the heaviest. He signals the others that he is about to strike. He draws his weapon and moves to the drow. He waits until the second one is turned away from his partner and strikes. He aims for the neck of the one facing him trying to prevent two attackers on him at once. After finishing off the first, he moves to the second and engages him hoping to catch him by suprise. (18-4=14 hits AC -7, 17 &a8 DMG).

[Note: did Gareth succeed at his direction sense attempt?]

Saire [invisible/displaced]

Saire lunges forward after Gareth, and he hurls his rope forward to entangle the 2 drow.

Nonam can read the guards nervous excitement. They are ready to trigger an alarm is anything happens, and are hoping they can join in the battle downstairs soon. [OOC: Gareth, Direction Sense is a non-Weapon proficiency. You can roll against this proficiency if you have it.]

When Jus hears again, he prepares to fire, thinking that someone is going to attack the guards. As soon as he sees Gareth's blow hit the drow, Jus fires two shots at the remaining guard. Both shots are solid (a9:ac-3, a11:ac-5, d7).

Tericus moves back towards the way they came in, making sure that no other drow that may hear sneaks up on them

The warrior presses his attack on the second drow slicing him twice - if he has survived thus far. He looks for any others as he move forward down the hall. He goes invisible once again - hoping he won't have to attack too often as they go. [OOC: I am assuming Gareth successful in his first attack, the 2nd drow was suprised and now dead, and that they are entangled. Please note that Gareth made his proficiency check 3 turns ago and I believe was successful. But just in case, I rolled again (last d20).]

Onrad waits for the power that is to say what is around the corner and for the results of his last turn.

Jus is here and ready to go.

Gareth
Wednesday July 5th, 2000 2:02:38 PM
The warrior finally discovers how to post and does so... Wondering if there are any dead drow yet.

Gareth - In case anyone missed my brilliant post... :)

The warrior rolls backward out of the no-magic zone around the corner as he is hit with the second round of arrows. He simulataneously drinks a potion of complete healing causing the deadly damage to begin healing. As he rolls he causes the drow mages to lose their balance and accidentally fire the lightning bolts at each other, killing them all. And since the potion of complete healing is still doing it's work, any the 179 points of damage he incurs is also healed as it is taken... :) Good Day!

Teko

Teko cancels his Invisibility to Gamers spell and pops into view. "Sorry," he says, "I was picking a lock." He seems to brush something from his nose.

The party kill the two drow with sinister grace, and Gareth presses onward. Gareth realizes that his direction sense is virtually useless underground.

Nonam
Friday July 7th, 2000 10:46:16 AM
Nonam whispers, "These two must have been guarding something. We should search the area and strip the bodies. And we should be fast about it before more drow come by."

The warrior moves immediately down the hall to the corner and looks around it.

Jus (1 Stoneskin, Improved Invis. cast at Dragon's door)
Friday July 7th, 2000 3:28:52 PM
Jus looks down the hallway to the south, making sure no drow are approaching. Since he's still invisible, he takes sentry position by the corner.

Onrad (Invisible) d20=20
Friday July 7th, 2000 3:28:54 PM
Onrad silently jumps as Gareth pulls up behind him to peek around the corner and realizes that Onrad has already done that but hasn't been told what he sees yet. He turns to whisper to Gareth something very important strategy wise, but can't quite get his thoughts organized (Int. check of 20 since I know the module.) and decides not to talk. He continues to look around the corner.

Teko
Friday July 7th, 2000 6:30:40 PM
Not being invisible, Teko cautiously moves along the hall, listening for the others. He pauses, not peeking around any corners, not just yet.
