[Adventure] Dirty Money: (The Final Encounter; Rohna, Tondrek up)[Judge: THB]

[sblock=ooc - confused]Sorry, still just trying to understand the layout here...

Ok, so the stairs are from Z4/Z5, and there's no wall between Z5/Z6 then?

And the room next to us - AA-AE, 6-8... that's walled off from us, correct? We don't even really know it's there?

And the curtain is open?

Not sure exactly what to do... Roswyn's inclination is to march out on the stage and demand to speak with the Blackscale leader. But I will hold off on that for right now...

*edit* Oh yes, the big thing I'm confused about - is the skill challenge completed, or still ongoing?[/sblock]

Actions for everybody. Currently the four above are standing on the stairs just out of sight of the kobolds. Z4-7. The other two are just gawking at the entrance, while a kobold approaches with drinks. Skill challenge success. 4 success 1 failure. Nice roll on the perception, would've alerted the kobolds below.

Sorry about the confusion. I should have been more clear here. Skill challenge is over(4 success before 2 failure).[/sblock]

[sblock=Room details as best I can]

And the curtain is open?

1) The stairs go all the way down to Z7. There is a short wall, like a solid railing that is at Z6/7 that two are you are hiding behind.

2)Correct, but from the landing above the club proper where you just were, you could infer that there is indeed a room there.

3)Curtain is closed. No way to raise it. It's split in two halves, so the dancers just move it away and go out to work.

I hope this answers question for SG too.[/sblock]

Tamarand will sneak up to the curtain, wrapping his dark cloak about himself and stealthily striding forward and try to make it to the curtain.

Why aren't we blasting things yet! Oh Lord Korran, the plan has changed and nobody told me!

-''Let's just go back stage. We'll shake some answers out of the dancers. They have to know where the boss is!''

[sblock=OOC]Brenron just sticks with Shava.[/sblock]

Seeing the drow go, Tondrek looks confuses a moment. He could try sneaking, but did not seem happy about it. He turned to Talky Gnome. Sneaky sneak? Or distraction make. I can make a boom! He looks sheepishly at some of the looks he gets. or something

OOC: Tondrek can set something up to explode, but it might kill people. Or he can have Crafty try to pull down a table-cloth or something to make a loud noise distraction.

 

[ryryguy]

[sblock=ooc]Ok, I think I've got it, but still might be confused... we are hiding in the stairwell, but the big long room behind the stage is full of dancers getting dressed, etc.? And that's who we are hiding from?

I'm going to proceed on that assumption...[/sblock]

Roswyn peeks out from behind the railing, then quickly pulls off her silk cloak and reverses it, concealing the Sivis coat of arms. She puts it back on and wraps the top around her head as a makeshift hood. Motioning to the others to stay put, she steps from concealment and boldly approaches the nearest dancer. (Being about the same size as the kobolds, she hopes not to attract a lot of attention, at least not right away.)

She stands with one hand on a saucily-cocked hip and addresses the dancer softly in Draconic.

[sblock=Draconic]"Hey honey, can you lend me a claw? My boss sent me here to, um, entertain the club owner, as a favor, special delivery-like..." The gnome winks and smiles lasciviously. "But he didn't tell me where to go, that stupid scale louse... and I gotta feeling the boss here might not want everybody to know about his, um, unusual tastes. Can you tell me where he's at? Maybe how I can get there without the whole world seeing? Scratch my scales and I'll scratch yours..."[/sblock]
OOC: Bluff check (1d20+11=31) Boy, Roswyn sure is rocking the skill checks!

 

[ScorpiusRisk]

OOC: I hate you, and your excellent bluff checks.

 

[renau1g]

[sblock=ooc]
I don't, now if I was the DM I would , his her dark talent is on our side.

[stonegod]

[sblock=OOC]Yup. r1 hates good bluff checks. Especially the ones in the low fifties.[/sblock]

Tamarand step off the stairs and makes it to the curtain. Stepping in the narrow area where part of the curtain overlaps the wall, the drow is able to get a look out into the main room.

[sblock=Tamarand]
Peering around the corner, Tamarand sees the three pronged stage. The room itself is cloaked in shadows, the brightest light on the stage where a nude kobold dances. Kobolds sit around many tables around the room. In the corners opposite the drow are two stations. A kobold at one is pouring drinks and placing them on a tray. At the other station a kobold is working a strange device in which the loud music emanates. Tamarand spots the half-elf and the dwarf at a table near the stage to his right.

Roswyn, cleverly disguised, walks calmly down the stairs and approaches the nearest kobold. The kobold stops applying colored powders to her scales and answers Roswyn.

"Boss is in a meeting right now. You wait?"
