[QUOTE="FitzTheRuke, post: 9765666, member: 59816"] [B][SIZE=6]Team Infiltrate[/SIZE][/B] Stryke and Copper followed Terrin's dancing lights as they bobbed their way toward the south west, but they were behind the lights, keeping to the shadows cast by the lumps and waves in the black rock walls. Meanwhile, Lorent set an illusion of himself, poorly hiding along the highest point between the two ledges, in an attempt to lure the cultist toward him. While this ambush was being laid, Terrin stood in the chamber high in the wall to the west of the lake, where a strange broken obelisk lay on the ground, with a ray sunlight beaming down through a crack in the ceiling. The rest of the chamber was lit dimly, and Terrin could not light a light, in case the cultist could see it. The markings on the obelisk were difficult to parse in the shadows near its base, but they would be much easier to read near its peak, which lay at an angle out of reach of the ground. It would be easy enough to climb up the obelisks flat side to get to its peak. From what little he could make out, the markings appeared ancient, and possibly elvish. After waiting for a moment in the dark, as the dancing lights bobbed away, Stryke tugged Copper's arm and whispered, [b]"Here he comes."[/b] Copper could see nothing, hear nothing over the water rushing between the two ledges, but he made himself ready all the same. Then, a small glow could be seen as the cultist prepared a fire spell, ready to send it at Lorent's illusion. [ooc]Copper can take a shot, if you like, [USER=53176]@Leatherhead[/USER]. I don't think I can justify Sneak Attack, as you can spot his location when he casts a spell, but he's in total darkness, so your Advantage for not being seen would be cancelled by your not being able to see him, either (you just know where he is, so you can target him, if that makes sense).
