[QUOTE="ScorpiusRisk, post: 4986236, member: 41601"] [sblock=review of what's happening] I'll dig the map out first chance this afternoon. Hadrak and Sheng are dressed like lamp installers trying to distract the guards. They are currently pretending to have lost their boxes. The second guard (G2) is quite distracted. Rurdev went sneaking along the alley but made too much noise. When the first guard (G1) went investigating he pretended to be drunk. Incarnation snuck over, was also discovered and is now scaring the first guard who slowly backed down the alley. Rurdev took the opportunity to sneak up the back stairs, now empty, and listen at the door. You and Qynn are near the start of the alley but have hardly been noticed due to not doing much in comparrison to the drunk, monster, and annoying laborers. The front door is now unguarded, but there is a ticket window there, with someone in it. THere is also another alley to the right of Theatre which has not been investigated. It is possible to circle round the back to get there. It is dark. The most apparent immediate options: Kill the guards, try and sneak over to Rurdev and Incarnation, try to go through the front, check out the other alley, help intimidate the other guard. You're roughly in a skill challenge right now, (I say roughly because its a bit too complex to just count successes and failures) so almost everything needs a skill check. So Dane, if you want to get to Incarnation, you either need to get the younger guard (G1) further away (perhaps Intimidate) or you need to stealth. I suppose you could just walk down the alley, but he might be confused at why you're walking into what he beleives to be certain danger. Everyone, if you want to sneak, stealth. Trick or encourage a guard to do something, Diplomacy, Bluff of Intimidate. Check things out, Perception or Insight. Hide a weapon, Thievery. Or be creative! There is XP on the line for this. Remember, encounter XP was recently doubled. I'm just saying.[/sblock] [sblock=Rurdev]You can hear people inside, but they don't seem to close to the door. There is some kind of mild disagreement.[/sblock] Scarred Guard (G2): [COLOR="SandyBrown"]"How did you loose them?"[/COLOR] He says with annoyance. [COLOR="SandyBrown"]"Where did you put them?
