Narrator: The delvers stand outside what they believe is truly the Tomb of the Bloody Baron. They have just partially destroyed a brick wall to allow enough space for Mrugnak to squeeze through.
Narrator: Ahead of them is a hallway of solid stone. The wall are painted with elaborate art of the Baron's life.
GM: What are you doing?
Mordreona: "Best let me go in first."
Berkun: "Looks less fake this time..." Berkun nods
** Mordreona starts in. **
Mordreona: Looking for traps.
GM: Move your token. Okay.
** Lenia pokes around the wall with her staff. "I just hope it's not quite so lacking in energy farther in." **
Singeon: I'll follow behind Mordreona
Berkun: Berkun stands to cover Mordreona in case she is attacked
Lenia: ((I see only black.))
Singeon: Thats better
Mordreona: ((1 sec.))
Lenia: ((Excellent!))
Mordreona: Traps/TL3 (14) [3d6.skill(14,0)] => [2,6,4] = 12 vs (14) or less Success! by 2
whispering to Singeon, As you enter the hallway, you notice there are large stones missing from the walls, up near the ceiling.
whispering to Mordreona, As you enter the hallway, you notice there are large stones missing from the walls, up near the ceiling.
Lenia: I fall in behind Singeon and Berkun, leaving Mrugnak to bring up the rear.
Narrator: Mordreona's light briefly goes out as she steps through the doorspace, and then comes back on as she steps a few feet further in.
Mrugnak: "Dat good."
Lenia: "That very good."
Mordreona: "Hmm, keep an eye on the tops of the walls guys."
GM: Lenia, you're in a no-mana zone. Take damage.
Lenia: After a minute?
Lenia: It's a Dependency, not a weakness.
Mordreona: I go slow.
GM: Oh! Okay. You're right. Just jump across and you're good.
** Mordreona keeps moving in. **
Lenia: ((I'm stuck under Mrugnak.))
Narrator: Moving carefully Mordreona scouts ahead.
Mordreona: "Come on guys, looks safe..."
Narrator: The hallways ends at a pair of double doors, made of heavy wood and bound with iron.
** Mordreona Looks for traps. **
Mrugnak: "Len-ie is blocking my way."
Singeon: "Doors... what treachery is this?"
Mordreona: Traps/TL3 (14) [3d6.skill(14,0)] => [5,1,5] = 11 vs (14) or less Success! by 3
Lenia: ((I can't move my token. It's under Mrugnak.))
whispering to Mordreona, You can't find any traps.
Lenia: ((Thanks))
Berkun: Berkun just shrugs, relaxes for a moment and then resumes his ready position.
** Mordreona tries to open the doors. **
Narrator: As Mordreona carefully examines the door, there is a sharp chittering from above. Dogsized bodies jump down and surround the delvers!
GM: Hey, you're under attack. Let's see...
Mordreona: "Crap."
GM: (ie, talk amongst yourselves but don't tell me what you're doing!)
** Singeon is real secretive about his actions so even the GM will be caught unaware **
Mordreona: "Hope they do not explode."
Singeon: Friends, There are stones missing from the walls, up near the ceiling.
Singeon: We should beware.
Lenia: "Those aren't stones."
whispering to Lenia, These look like fiendish rats. They bite, pierce through armor, and poison people. They're strong and fast but cowardly.
Mordreona: "Thought I pointed that out, sorry."
Singeon: ((I just realized I had a whisper, god knows for how long it was there))
whispering to Mordreona, These look like fiendish rats. They bite, pierce through armor, and poison people. They're strong and fast but cowardly.
Mordreona: "I hate rats, fiendish rats are the worst."
Mrugnak: "Rust rats! Dey eat weapons! Youse got to punch them!"
GM: Sorry, there was some confusion there.
Mordreona: "No poison."
GM: Okay, any questions before we begin?
Lenia: "Poisonous, yes. Weapon-eating, no. Honestly, everyone thinks they're an expert."
Singeon: "What is the secret for a good relationship?"
Berkun: Yes, assuming I'd use my manticore spike as an improvised weapon, what would the stats be?
Mordreona: (( I see no rats on the map.))
Berkun: like a small knife or less?
Mordreona: ((Now I see Them))
GM: Sure, it's a long knife.
Berkun: okay.

Berkun: "And I have something on my mind... but I don't know much about such things..."
GM: Let me see: 28, two major healings @ 8, poition for 6, minor for 3, bandaging for 1. You're at 2 - good call!
Berkun: "Could there be a..." Berkun tries to remember the word "A mechanism that seals the main entrance?"
GM: (I mean, you've taken 2 hits, you have 11 left, whatever)
Mordreona: "OK I feel good enough to rest."
Lenia: The Minor for 3 was on Mrugnak, not Mordreona. >.>
GM: Mrugnak isn't injured?

GM: Actually, Mrugnak isn't fit. Never mind.
Lenia: ((AFK 2 ticks while they decide what they're doing with the door - roommate woke up, need to figure out dinner.))
Mordreona: "I do not think the door is traped, we can open it when Lenia is up and ready."
GM: Okay. Singeon will need to make a self-control roll to wait for an hour.

Berkun: Berkun looks at his phials
** Mordreona walkes back in and looks the door over for traps again. **
Mrugnak: "Mrugnak protect Len-ee and Mordy!"
Singeon: "we all left her to be eaten alive."
Mrugnak: "We just break it?"
Mrugnak: "Mrugnak not leave her!"
Berkun: "We used it in a battle against greenfang orcs. At worse, we can just burn whatever waits before us!"
Singeon: "Lenia's talents can be the difference betwen life and death."
Mrugnak: "You calling Mrugnak coward, little man?"
Mordreona: ((lol I'm stuck under Berkun.))
Berkun: (still?)
Berkun: (I moved him now)
Singeon: "Except for you running off like a little girl, no, I dont think you are a coward."
Mordreona: "We should have ran out."
Berkun: "And burn them."
Singeon: Or was that Mordrena?
Mrugnak: "Mrugnak not run. And not like little girl."
Lenia: ((...Did he just call the bad-tempered nine-foot-tall berserker a cowardly little girl?))
Mrugnak: "Mordy ran, because she little girl."
Mordreona: "It was me, and I am a little girl."
Singeon: "All i mean is we should surround her and fight them off."
Berkun: "We won't make the mistake again... who here has a good throw?"
Mrugnak: "Maybe Mrugnak make little man into little girl."
Berkun: Berkun offers one of his fire potions to whoever takes it
** Lenia just stares at this exchange, slightly horrified. **
Singeon: "Okay, you are all little girls. My point stands."
Mordreona: "I am trying the door now guys."
** Mordreona trys to open the door. **

Berkun: "Flail... he means your big ball"
Singeon: "I means you have a big... er.. you know."
Singeon: "Forget it, let's go."
Berkun: "Flailic ball"
Lenia: "Singeon. Stop obsessing over Mrugnak's phallus and stop trying to make him angry."
Lenia: "I believe someone was about to open the door."
Mrugnak: "Me not know what you mean. Mean do know dat you call me little girl. Me tink it time to squash little man."
Singeon: "Better his than yours. I'm ready! Let's ygo."
Berkun: Berkun thinks he's been spelling 'flail' badly
Mordreona: "I'm trying."
Lenia: "Mrugnak, please don't squash Singeon. He might surprise us all and prove useful later."
Singeon: "Me tink you should listen better. I was talking about us better protecting her!"
Mrugnak: "But he wants to go! Me ready! Me no coward! Me show him!"
Singeon: "I heard that, Lenia! I am writing that down in my journal."
Mrugnak: "Mrugnak hear just fine, little man. Step up and go!"
Mordreona: "Not if you are left handed."
Berkun: "This place messes with our heads... we must be fast..."

Singeon: ((good one Mordreona))
Berkun: Berkun aims at Singeon, barbed arrow, vitals
Lenia: "EVERYBODY STOP RIGHT NOW!"
Singeon: "Let him bring it on. I am not afraid."
Mordreona: "Come now boys, lets calm down."
Berkun: "It's the rat venom... resist it, fools!"
Mrugnak: "Stop wha?"
Mordreona: "After we find the loot you may kill each other."
Berkun: "Get outside in the sun, see if you won't burn... like THEM!"
Berkun: Berkun shivers noticeably
Mrugnak: "He want to fight! Mrugnak ready and he ready! He say let's go, Mrugnak ready to go!"
Singeon: "You wanna playm <rugnuk, I am ready.">
Singeon: "Let's play."
Berkun: "No, it's the bites... they make you feel angry like that..."
Berkun: "They make you think like the rats..."
Singeon: "Its not the bites. i always feel angry like this!"
Berkun: "You don't... your mind is clouded..."
** Mordreona fumbles with the door.Yells "CRAP" and runs out. **
Lenia: "I have been impaled. I have been bitten, climbed on, chewed on, driven to unconsciousness, and woken up with the foulest taste in my mouth since that night I graduated Wizards' College. I have walked across HALF OF THE BLOODY WESTMARCH to find this tomb, we are NOT going to KILL EACH OTHER at the DOOR. WEAPONS. DOWN. NOW. Or I will get ANGRY."
Berkun: "Swordsman, remember we came here for treasure, we're comrades..."
Singeon: "It's up to Mrugnuk. if he wishes to challenge me, i always accept."
Mrugnak: "You challenge me first!"
Singeon: "I do not wish to fight, but I don't back down."
Berkun: "We're comrades. If one raises hand at another, they're traitor..."
Mrugnak: He spits at your feet. "But Lenee and Mordy no want fight, so no fight for now."
Berkun: "And I'll crucify the traitor outside, I swear"
Berkun: Berkun gnashes teeth
** Lenia grits her teeth. "Berkun, you're not helping." **
Singeon: "Fine. And wathc out for Lenia, as i was trying to make a point of."
Mrugnak: "Grrr"
Singeon: "What are you talking about, Berkun?"
Berkun: Berkun turns nervously to Singeon
Mrugnak: Mrugnak says something very rude in Foreignerese and steps away.
Berkun: "What? About you and Mrugnak... leave each other alone..."
Singeon: "We are. You on the other hand, are you feeling well?"

(on deck: [26] skeletons)


Berkun: any chance I can get a kick at the leg perhaps?

Zombie: Parry [3d6.skill(11,-4-2-3)] => [1,6,3] = 10 vs (2) or less Failure! by 8
