    Sinister Spire (Group 2)(Orsal Judging)

    Aside from a little staring, there is no sign of anybody paying any attention, hostile or otherwise, to you.

    Sinister Spire (Group 2)(Orsal Judging)

    Penrdake drinks the potion. By my records hit point totals are now Semabin 50/50 Pendrake 25/40 Eanos 25/44 Is that right? You pass unhindered through the city gate. You see a city in many ways like you'd expect a city on the surface, but with some eerie differences. The denizens are mostly...

    Sinister Spire(con't RBD)(Orsal Judging)

    The key does open the locked drawer. Inside Lookspring finds: A scroll with divine magical writings A potion A necklace with three large golden beads A magnificent circular black stone, well-polished and engraved with draconic writings 50 gold pieces and 20 platinum pieces

    ..and he finds an iron key hidden inside. Lookspring, meanwhile, continues to search the hole in the wall, but finds nothing.

    Sinister Spire(con't RBD)(Orsal Judging)

    It has been a while... sorry. My life has gotten busier, so while I hope to be updating more frequently than I have in the past month, I definitely won't be back to October's pace in the near future. When Rowan picks up the statue, he notices a large cavity in the bottom. Lookspring crawls...

    Sinister Spire (Group 2)(Orsal Judging)

    Ouch, it's been a while! My life has recently gotten busier. So while I do hope to be updating more frequently than I have in the past two weeks, I won't in the near future be on ENworld nearly as often as I was in October. After another 100' or so, the stones become firm again, and the three...

    Sinister Spire(con't RBD)(Orsal Judging)

    Pulling the stone out reveals a nook, about 5' deep. It is too narrow for Rowan or Phoenix to crawl into, and even Lookspring would be cramped. Rowan wants to pick up the statue, and to bust open the locked drawer. Which does he do first?

    Sinister Spire(con't RBD)(Orsal Judging)

    Phoenix finds mostly clothing and miscellaneous rags in the drawers. The only thing at all remarkable is the statue, an abony figurine of a drow warrior with a jewelled shield. The bottom drawer is locked. Lookspring finds no tracks. He does find one loose stone at the end of the passage...

    Sinister Spire (Group 2)(Orsal Judging)

    Eanos and Semabin both apply the fatal touch to their respective adversaries. Pendrake misses, but with four of their associates dead and a fifth disabled, the remaining fishmen dive back into the water and retreat to the depths. End of combat, unless you want to chase them down below. What now?

    Tavern - City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn '08

    I'd forgotten Devlin and Nurlan were in the Tempest shard quest together... but Nurlan would have remembered, so I've edited his welcome to make more sense./ "Life's been well. After the desert travels I spent a little time in Hendralia, then came over this way, stopping everywhere in between...

    Sinister Spire (Group 2)(Orsal Judging)

    ...and with that, the fishman climbing onto the bridge is disabled, and stops climbing. I deem climbing, even a simple act of scurrying onto the bridge, to be strenuous. With that, the fishman slowly swims back down undersea. And then there were five..

    Tavern - City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn '08

    The large brown-skinned human in the bright purple cloak is the first to greet the new entrant. "Welcome, good Mr. Devlin! As one seasoned traveller to another, shall we raise a toast to the life of the road?"

    Sinister Spire(con't RBD)(Orsal Judging)

    The scrolls have some sort of arcane writings on them. You'd need either a Read Magic spell or a spellcraft check to say more. Lookspring dips his arrows into what he evidently presumes to be some kind of poison. He manages to avoid contact with the unknown substance as he applies it. Rowan...

    Sinister Spire (Group 2)(Orsal Judging)

    Round 11 On the bridge, Semabin and Pendrake each strike another blow against their respective current sparring partners. Both f6 and f2 are now seriously wounded, but alive and kicking. Eanos has more difficulty, but does manage to hoist himself onto the bridge. The fishman up there, however...

    I don't update Nurlan's sheet with amphitheatre income on any regular basis. I just make a note of when I last calculated income, so that when I do get around to updating, I can calculate the total. Of course, now that he's started an adventure, so you know how long he's been accruing money, one...

    Sinister Spire (Group 2)(Orsal Judging)

    First, apologies for the delay. I will be online only intermittently, and more briefly than usual, at least until Nov 5. So I'm not sure if I'll update again within the next week. But I haven't abandoned this game. Round 10 Semabin continues to slowly whittle away at the fishman on the bridge...

    First, my apologies for the delay. I'm likely to be online only intermittently, and more briefly than usual, until Nov 5, so I'm not sure if I'll get around to posting again in the next week. But I haven't abandoned this game. The HP totals are how many each character has left. Strewn around...

    Distance: I conceived the inn as a place where people travelling to or from Orussus could spend the night, so not more than a full day's travel for most travellers. A full day, in this context, means 8 hours -- how far people actually travel in a day, not how far they would hypothetically travel...

    Sinister Spire (Group 2)(Orsal Judging)

    Round 9 Semabin manages to scar his opponent's side; f6 remains fully operational, however. Pendrake drops his bow (free action), draws his sword (move action), and adopts a total defense position (standard action). Note: I understand he's dropping his bow to the ground. That means if he...

    If my records are correct: Rowan 32/58 Phoenix 60/67 Lookspring 27/37 CLW wands are usually made at caster level 1, so 2-9 HP (d8+1). I'll post loot and XP when I get a chance.
