Ok, so Sheeva goes from rolling a 1 on the to hit to rolling a 20.

[renau1g]

The party's efforts prove too much for the paladin, he slumps to his knees after Sheeva's blast of lightning, his eyes lock with River's "I failed the Flame" is heard as he falls to the ground.

The everburning torches suddenly flicker and dim. At the top of the western stairs, the Eye of Khyber flares brighter, a sickly blood-red. Then a fountain of flame erupts from the stone, scouring the upper landing and the ceiling above as a misshapen figure appears. The wolflike creature stands on all fours, ropes of twisted muscle rippling beneath its mangy red fur. Its foul voice echoes from the stones as it hisses: "You have slain my champion and have shown your worth. Who among you accepts the mantle of Voice of Khyber?"

As the healing power of Arawai continue to flow through River, he turns around and look at the creature.

"And what if none of us is willing to turn to your dark god. What if we decline your offer?"

[CaBaNa]

Pok is bolstered by River's brave words. He steps out against his better instincts, and attempts to be a real Sivis. Does the Voice of Khyber hold all power and responsibility for the people of this cult?

 

[KarinsDad]

OOC: Sheeva will say the following after the creature responds to River and/or Pok.

"Hey fellows, can we go now?" Sheeva says stiffling a yawn and ignoring the creature. "I'm so bored with these Khyber cultists and their lame leaders with their grand schemes and plans of conquest and death and destruction. Yada, yada, yada. We need to go to a big city and have some fun, and leave these yahoos to their plotting and scheming which hasn't accomplished anything in the last few millenium."

 

[dimsdale]

Rumbum moves in front of River to shield him in case of an unsuspecting attack. I no trust him River. I protect you like you do for me. He then positions himself in a defensive postition, staring menacingly at the fanged creature, with shield up and axe tightly griped with his right hand, ready to use it in a moments notice.

[sblock=actions]
minor: none
movement: move to o9
action: defensive position stance...whatever it's called.

[Maidhc O Casain]

Feall maintains a defensive posture, declining to speak to the monstrosity before him.

 

[Velmont]

"Thanks Rumbump." say calmly River, looking directly into the eyes of the creature, waiting for his answer.
