Message: <blockquote data-quote="orkish_blade" data-source="post: 5353188" data-attributes="member: 55353">Bones points down the street (with Domenicos out of earshot), "Yellow Eye said he went that way, I think we should continue our search in that direction, near the docks where these two clowns do their clerking."  Bones keeps a watchful eye for any more of the Seagull thugs as he follows the main street down toward the docks.  Having learned much about underground structures and ruins from his dwarven master, he pictures in his mind the tunnels, sewers, and culverts that are running below the streets and that undoubtedly connect some of the warehouses, offices, and taverns, particularly as they approach the port.  He looks for signs of ways in and ways out, large and small (storm drains, manholes, public bathhouses and outhouses, etc.), and for hints at features and locations of the underground tunnels visible at the street level (rises in the street over a large culvert, pipe, or aqueduct, dips in the street over filled in sinkholes, water damage to building foundations, etc.).  If I were trying to hide, Bones thinks to himself as he walks, I'd get off the street and out of sight, and underground seems as good a place as any. If I were trying to hide something large and conspicuous like a legendary magician's hoard or laboratory (or his corpse), I'd definitely need to find a nice, secure hole in the ground.Bones ponders these things and can't help but feel a little distaste at the thought of having to search the sewers (storm or otherwise) of such a crowded metropolis.  He'd much rather be scouring the tombs of lost kings or the exploring the ancient dwarven cities of past ages.[sblock=Dungeoneering check] Dungeoneering check to look for signs of underground structures, hiding places, tunnels in the docks district, 1d20 + 6 = <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2729225/" target="_blank">17 (success! hopefully)</a>[/sblock][sblock=Quick Stats] <a href="http://l4w.wikia.com/wiki/PC%3ABones_%28orkish_blade%29" target="_blank">Bones, level 1 human rogue</a> hp 29/29, surges 7/7; AC 16, Fortitude 13, Reflex 17, Will 12; available: easy target (daily), second wind, torturous strike; 3 daggersexpended: action point[/sblock]</blockquote>
