[LPF] Dwarven Crusade: Khuldun

"I am sure that with the amount of dust around, it should be easy enough to tell if someone has passed. That also means that should someone come along, even though it does seem to have been years, they will know someone is about as well." she says motioning to the tracks that the group is leaving in the dust.

Assuming the group had no other ideas, the witch utters a few strange syllables and his Web spell stretches over the stairs leading down, hopefully blocking anyone sneaking up on them from behind for the next our or so.

GM:

Nathan reached 7th level on 9/19 with 23,020 xp. Congrats! I'll post up the full xp chart in the next day or so.

Leaving the web-blocked stair behind Borric and Zelena lead the group down the hall. Soon the passage opens up into a chamber and Nathan sends his motes of light darting forward to illuminate the chamber beyond the reach of the light of Borric's ioun torch.

With the entire chamber lit up it is clear that this room is different from those empty rooms on the upper level: the dust on the floor is disturbed and both the small tracks and the larger shuffling tracks can be seen throughout the room. On the far wall from the entrance where the group stands is another doorway, 15 feet wide and equally tall. The doors which would normally close this portal appear to have been battered from their hinges and lie on the floor. Panels on the door gleam in the light like gold.

The doorway itself is almost entirely sealed by a wall of small stones from floor to ceiling. The only break in the wall is a low doorway two-and-a-half feet wide and three small holes up near the top of the wall that may be arrow slits. As if summoned by the thought a string twangs and a bolt bounces off Borric's armor.

Combat: Round One. Everyone is up. Take your time; jkason will need to level Nathan to 7th.

[sblock=OOC]Is the D Column(7-9) in a blind spot next to the wall? Sounds like the arrow slits are high, so a person could have cover from them right below or standing in between, yeah?

What about the doors on the floor, are they difficult terrain?[/sblock]

GlassEye · Sep 25, 2012

Borric's tactical mind quickly assesses the room and sight-lines from the crude holes serving as arrow slits within the wall. Due to the placement high on the wall and the restricted construction of the holes from a lack of proper fortification design Borric believes the space directly beneath the holes and the corners of the room farthest from where the group now stands would be safe from arrow fire. The narrow wooden door in the wall blocking the doorway is poorly constructed as well. These additions to the room do not exhibit the solid craftsmanship common to dwarven construction. The doors adorned with golden reliefs also look heavy enough and the relief-work shallow enough that moving across them should present no problem.

[sblock=OOC]All of column D is safe from arrow fire. Doors on the floor are not difficult terrain.[/sblock]

Borric Hawkins, Male Human Fighter

Borric quickly draws his special flail, mageslayer, and remarks with a snarl, "Oh, these cowards are going to get it. Shock and awe!"

"I am coming for you, ya bastards!"

Despite his heavy armor, the trained fighter is actually able to move quickly and Borric runs across the gap to reach the wall. He hunches a bit to keep out of the line of fire and tries to peer over his raised shield to look through the slits.

Seeing Borric head off Zelena follows suit. The small armored figure sprints across the room to the man's side. Reaching the wall she is starting to breath heavily. She takes a quick look about the room.

Syl wasn't convinced rushing into a new position blindly was the greatest move. There could be a trap over there. Rather than expose the whole squad, he holds his ground on the same side of the room. It would much easier for him to step back out of range of the weapon. If the others were engaged, he could run over there, if necessary.

OOC:

Syl will move back 15', making sure nothing bad happens to those moving through the room this round.

As Borric nears the wall he realizes the makeshift arrow slits are higher than he first thought and are positioned on the wall about three or four feet above his head. Zelena dashes up alongside Borric and Nathan follows not long after. Sylvain slips back into the shadows as his companions take cover in the shadow of the wall.

Within the wall can be heard a scrabbling and the muffled sound of voices.

OOC:

Combat: Round Two. Everyone is up. Sorry I was unclear about location of the 'arrowslits'. They are about 10 ft up from the floor.
