Kemble sighs, his shoulders slumped despondently. After a moment, he looks up to find himself all alone. "Hey, wait for me!" he cries as he runs off to follow the others.

I like third person better. First person often encourages "vicarious" play -- that is, instead of thinking, "What would my character do in this situation?" one ends up thinking, "What would I do if I were in my character's situation?" Third person helps to distance a player from his character...

Hargrim lets out a roar as the orc's sword bites into his shoulder. Adrenaline masks his pain as he continues to fend off his attacker. When Alton's crossbow bolt fells his assailant, he turns wildly, axes at the ready, to see Zyrial quietly approaching. At the elf's calming words, he relaxes a...

Kemble can't resist a mysteriously sealed-off door in an old crypt. Now that Flar has suggested a ghost or some similar guardian, he *really* can't resist getting in there. That's all. :)

Kemble looks up at Flar, his eyes wide. "A ghost?" he breathes. "Do you really think so?" He smiles, his mouth agape in wonder at this new suggestion. The little halfling throws his body against the door, more determined than ever to push it open.

Likewise -- Kemble is a mischievous, spontaneous chap who lives to get into trouble. Hopefully I won't piss anyone off, even if Kemble pisses the other PCs off royally. ;)

I'm ready when y'all are.

I believe the DMG talks about re-rolling initiative when an encounter's circumstances change so drastically that it should be considered a new encounter. I could buy this as being what happened in the OP's game, and I could also buy a surprise round if warranted. That is, baddie teleports in...

Kemble races to the crypts. "Chance? Chance!" he calls out. "Oh, there you are," he sighs, spotting the human finally in front of the door to the southern crypt. "Wow," he breathes, his mouth slightly agape as he looks around. "This place is creepy," he remarks with a grin. The halfling...

Hargrim continues to fend off his assailants, focusing first on the orc Zyrial is attacking. Still using Two-Weapon Fighting. Tries to take out Zyrial's orc with first attack; uses second to continue to attack Zyrial's orc, if necessary, and attacks the other orc otherwise. Total attack...

Kemble stands and reaches up to pat Donedal on the shoulder sympathetically. He then bolts down the hill after Ionna, whooping excitedly all the way.

Kemble, like a child at Yuletime, tries his hardest to stay awake all night, images of dark elves dancing in his head. Also like a child at Yuletime, he ultimately falls asleep, snoring softly, dreaming of adventure. He wakes to the sound of Ionna's voice, sits up, stretches, and yawns...

Kemble looks up suddenly and grins, mischief twinkling in his large eyes. "When the dark elves come," he says, kneeling to pick up a fist-sized stone that lay on the ground, "I do believe the Great Adventurer Himself, Brandobaris, will show them the light..." The halfling shivers. "I don't...

OOC: Keep in mind that humans and halflings don't see in the dark...if those with darkvision and low-light vision want to do all the watching, that's cool, but once the fighting breaks out, so must the light sources. :) Also, I'm up for fast-forwarding too -- we've been futzing around the area...

"Take out the archers!!" Hargrim bellows to Balin as he swings his axes at the orc who charged him. OOC: Hargrim, using Two-Weapon Fighting, aims one attack at the orc who charged him. If he doesn't kill the orc with that attack, he uses his second attack to try to finish him off; otherwise...

OOC: I hope you mean you'll sneak attack the ORC NEXT TO the dwarf. If not...well, Alton better hope he kills Hargrim with that sneak attack... ;)

Hargrim, Dwarf Rog3/Ftr1 Hargrim smoothly dismounts and advances toward the nearest orc, drawing his twin handaxes as he moves. "I love orcs," he says loudly in Orcish. "Especially the sound they make when my axes cleave their skulls." OOC: Dismounts as move-equivalent action; moves 20 ft...

Kemble shrugs. "If we wait out here, we've got to be alert for drow raiders, so I doubt we'd get much beauty sleep either way." He jerks a thumb toward the mausoleum. "Any of you guys know anything about traps? Normally, I wouldn't worry about a dusty old crypt like that, but if drow are...

Kemble yawns. "Bo-ring," he says glumly. "Come on, let's get in there! We can't let those foul villains wreak further havoc on the good people of Daggerdale! Besides, it'll be fun."

Kemble watches the other halfling depart and scratches his head. "Back to thirty pounds of halfling pain, then..." He shrugs and joins the others in exploring the area.
