Ambush in the Sewers
One by one the party jumps into the foul smelling water at the bottom of the stairs. As Weapon jumps in one of the valves on the far right side opens spilling a large amount of water into the tunnel. The water quickly flows with the current which appears to be in the direction opposite the party.
By the time Siobhan has jumped into the water, her brother had already emmerged on the platform beneath the iris-like valves. Mordin joins Siobhan in the water as Akhi hangs back.
[sblock=Akhi]Skakan takes the coins preoffered, but notices a glint in Akhi's eyes as the large barbarian drops a few more coins to the stairs. With a wink the goblin starts running up the stairs. Ahki is about to give chase (and probably catch up within steps and clobber the poor goblin) when...[/sblock]
As the party's light (who has it?) reaches the far end of the tunnel, Siobhan and Weapon both notice three dark forms rising from the water. Siobhan immediately recognizes them as shifters, Razorclaws most likely. From the right of the stairs near the grate Akhi sees the dull metal glint of a warforged rising from the water in ambush just in time. Wielding a rapier the warforged attacks.
[Surprise Round]
Skakan takes off running. As Akhi did not have his great club quite ready yet, the little blighter manages to take off.

[sblock=OOC]Party location:
Stulgar, Weapon, Kharas, and Siobhan are up on the south platform in that order.
Del/Mordin is in the water in the square right in front of the platform.
Akhi is on the bottom step, not yet in the water.
The three shifters are in the water just beyond the platform at the far west.
The warforged is in the north square next to the grate (mere steps from where the party passed by and only 10ft from Akhi and Mordin).
Map to come when I have time to put it together.
