My init (14) and my stats (4/13 HP's + 3 subdual) are in the subject line of my last post.

Sorry, when I hit 'post reply' the title lines don't show, so I didn't see it. I amended the post.
 

Lyrique will wait to see what the bear does. It may be a "music soothes the savage beast" senario. Of course it may also be an "eat the elf for breakfast senario" we have to wait and see.
If the bear attacks Lyrique will cast Enthrall.
 

Keith stays low once inside, and begins to search around, trying to see if there are any chambers blocked or otherwise, and will tap on the walls, unless he hears something coming. He draws out his Wand of Cure Light Wounds, and holds it in his offhand.

Charlotte better be alive... I can't beleive I actually let them go through with this with this ridiculous idea, when I find Travellios...

Search check is 10+10=20, and any Listen checks will be 8+2=10.
 

Can you see Keith?
No, I can't... I don't know where he went.
Maybe he managed to sneak by the bear? He is with you, isn't he?
I think I saw him earlier... he's somewhere. He might've gotten past the bear, but I'm not sure.
...you're being rather helpful. That's unusual.
...


"Come on, Keith, anybody," Charlotte says, "find us!"
 

Mortimer nervously keeps his crossbow trained on the bear. He'll shoot if it tries to take a chunk out of Lyrique.

Because one bolt is really going to do more than just piss it off...
 

Rallyn, Sildarin (with Doyle) Paenderig, Keith, Lyrique and Mortimer, accompanied by Boromin, with Charlotte and Travellios in the cave

Initiatives:
Keith 23 (snuck past the bear)
Lyrique 17
Mortimer 17 (dropped due to readied attack
Dire Bear 17
Sildarin 15 (sneaks past)
Paenderig 15 (going to ready action)< -up next
Travellios 14 (trapped in the larder)
Charlote 4 (trapped in the larder)
Rallyn 1 (hesitating)
Boromin 1 (waiting for instructions from Rallyn)


The bear begins to attack Lyrique, who steps back and casts Enthrall. Roll 13+9 Will = 22, DC 15, success. The dire beast still has plenty of movement left, and charges forward, swiping at Lyrique...

But before it has a chance to hit him, Mortimer looses a crossbow bolt, which flies wildly away.

... the bear's bite rakes across Lyrique's chest, causing a huge rend to form in his skin to hit: roll 8+18+2 for charge = AC 28, 2d8+5, 3+4+5 = 12 points of damage and it roars deafeningly in Lyrique's face.

Sildarin follows Keith into the cave, neatly side-stepping the bear, who seems to be fixated on Lyrique.

Paenderig roll your hit, or change actions. :)

edit- the bear is AC 15 right now, due to the charge.
Dire bears are dangerous :eek:

Sildarin sneaks inside, going as fast as he can and still keep his steps silent. He leaves the walls alone and tries to locate the giant.
 

Good shot sir... Mortimer thinks sourly to himself at his bolt goes wide. I'd better go and help the poor chap out.

Mortimer drops his crossbow and draws his rapier, moving towards the bear, and trying to get into a flanking position with Lyrique.

(To Hit: 17 + 5 = 22, Damage: 1 + 1 = 2 (+ Sneak Attack 4, if applicable))
