New development: We're on hold for Ferrix, who will be away for a short period (not that this was exactly a breakneck speed anywho), we'll resume when she's back.

Any preperations from the rest of the team before you enter the courtyard?

Is this game on hold? I'm pretty anxious to get in, I love the characters and the world.

Presently a great squealing and rending sound issues from the courtyard, and the portculis shudders. Slowly, the weight of the gate taking it's toll on the ancient mechanism, begins to rise. The swaying of the bodies becomes more pronounced, their speed increasing and starting to turn them on...

Somwhere I clearly remember reading that a dose of poison can be applied to one melee weapon, or twenty units of ammunition. Am I insane? Or a little bit stupid? I'll readily admit to either.

Moving into the courtyard is little trouble, the passage was designed to be a straight walk with few obstructions. The Gallow's Yard is walled in, the far edge meeting the exterior of the keep's wall. The Gallows themselves are intricate, lever and trap door mechanisims with a catwalk along the...

The lock is difficult to defeat until you realize that several of the pins have been rusted in place. Judicious use of a small hammer and tiny chisel solve the problem swiftly. The door is reluctant to move on it's ancient hinges but eventually opens into what's known as a Hangman's walk. The...

There is a brief flash of red light, and the ages old Fire Trap that once warded the door glows a brilliant red and slowly fades. The iron cools after a few moments, leaving it merely locked to the best of Thorn's knowledge.

Go ahead a read the IC, mission briefs are available to D.E.L.V.E. team members at any time.

Thorn, detail I forgot to mention: This sort of trap is vulnerable to dispelling magic.

Janic most likely won't be brought in until after the current mission. I would like like to see the skill modifiers written out though. Where is the +4 to Dex coming from? Also, no weapons purchased? Just checking.

Thorn:A careful examination of the iron around the lock reveals minute inscriptions, age worn but barely readable. YOu've seen this sort of thing before. A magical trap, one of several kinda of ward. You can attempt to disarm it by damaging the inscription in the way you've been taught with your...

Well, mostly right. It should either be Sun Ao-Li or just Ao-Li. I'm a semantics geek, sorry. Good to know it's soon to be ACTIVE. Very excited.

Erran:The gate is strong, wraught iron over some kind of wood, too old to really recognize. It is locked, the lock set into the door beneath the pull ring on the left. Further inspection reaveals no other mean of passage.

As Thorn and the others follow the trail, it eventually leads to an actual cobbled path once more. The path splits here, one fork heading away from the keep and curling back through the necropolis, the other continuing along the base of the keep and entering a shallow tunnel, sealed with a...

Armour Bonus does apply to touch attacks, does not apply to flat footed. And you just pointed out an inconcistency I missed. When using the two systems together, (def bonus and armour as DR) you take whichever is highest, not both. Which means Sereth needs to knock +3 off her AC. I could rule...

Just let me know here when my introduction comes along. I eagerly anticipate it. :D

It's all looking pretty good so far. FInish up the sheet and let me give it a final pass before we get you posted to the RG.

The majority seems to be finding another route. encroaching burial grounds and debris would make advancement to the left of the entrance difficult. There does seem to be a path of sorts around the abse of the keep to the right, along the wall. It seems clear enough of debris and headstones.

1500+1800=3300. I'm ruling the extra 300 for that fact that it would take more to make the DS permanent as a specialty item, not just the "standard" recipe for a Hat of Disguise.
