Belaver declines to engage the heavily-armed cultists in melee, instead hanging back and summoning an earth elemental behind them.

"I agree. We have too many wounded as it is, and little enough to heal them with; pressing on in this condition would be foolhardy."

As far as it goes, Belaver's never seen anyone hurl fire without using druidic magic before. It doesn't particularly concern him; as long as she's only hurling fire at people who evidently deserve to have fire hurled at them, she's doing fine.

Belaver heals Craven and drops backwards, hissing at Neshi to bring the gnoll down.

If Raner is still alive, Belaver will stabilize him with healing magic (CMiW); if not, he tries to bring down the murderous skeletons via sling.

"Perhaps better, then to keep it from closing. If we could wedge it open, and then bend it to press against its frame, it couldn't fall. "The only problem is that my summoning spell doesn't last very long."

OOC: How far away does the winch mechanism appear to be from the portcullis? "I may be able to summon an elemental to open this, either by using the winch or through brute force. It might, however, attract unwanted attention."

"Unless, of course, the dragon decides to take them, whether for necromancy, leverage on our consciences, or simply snacking."

Thanks. Dropping that point into Con, for the hit points. I just don't like the idea of poor little Neshi getting hurt, is all.

They pick up a +1 to Strength and Dex every bump. So, yes, Neshi is fairly formidable, and (with a Barkskin) might have a high enough AC to survive in close combat. Belaver, on the other hand, is frail and weak.

"You were bitten by something that habitually eats rotting human flesh. The only faster way to get an infected wound is to jump through a glass window into an open sewer."

Belaver mutters "The food should be fine," moving to retreat the wound. Lacking any magical means of curing the disease, he'll likely be forced to cut away the diseased tissue, wash out the wound thoroughly with either alcohol or a tincture of some kind, and then repair the damage he's done...

"I know a fair bit about poisons and such; comes of collecting herbs for a living." Belaver will examine the food as best he is able.

"Chat appears to have been in league with someone in this complex. However, since he didn't help the cultists, it may not have been them, which would mean that there's another power group in here as well, which also wants us dead. I really, really do not like this. Perhaps if we can take one...

Belaver does the only thing for which his skills are suited: comforts the cat.

A Rogue5/Assassin2, at the least. I think our no-PC-death streak has come to an end.

Belaver snatches up his spear, moving with his serpent to encircle the traitor and striking at his unprotected back. Neshi, too, darts for Chat's heel.

"If we put something over the door, it will not be possible for someone to scale the chute and enter the room without alerting us all."

"We'll need to keep a watch. This room should be safe, since there's only one entrance besides the chute. Jam the iron maiden closed, and have two people watching the door."

Belaver hurries to Toriah's side, doing what he can with bandages and herbs. When he has finished binding Toriah's wounds, he will do the same for the others, hoping to prevent infection.
