Taking advantage of jin’s winded condition, the bandit slips away from the melee and runs down the hall to regroup with his companions.    As if by some magic, the halfling slinger emerges from behind a double-door at the far end of the hall down which the bandit ran. Three stones fly at Rujah and one finds its mark, raising a bleeding welt on Rujah’s scaly head.      From behind the halfling, the thief-lord’s words inspire one more shot from the halfling, but it flies wide, “Told you so, you overgrown windbag!”  Cursing, the halfling disappears behind the double-door.   Once more, the barrage of attacks is concluded by a feeble attempt from the drake who can seem to penetrate neither Rujah’s armor nor the reach of his hammer. When it finally flaps out of sight, the room is eerily quiet, exposing the low and weak breaths coming from Dayna, who lies on the verge of death.[sblock=Mechanics]Human Bandit  Standard:  Mace Attack  Target:  Jin  Attack:  <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2336463/" target="_blank">1d20+4=21</a> Hit  Damage: 1d8+1=4  Effect:  Shift to F29  Move:  E30, E31, D31, C31, B31, B30  Stealth: <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2336469/" target="_blank">1d20+9=10</a> Bandit 3 is not hidden, but not visible.     Halfing Slinger:  Stone Rain Recharge:  <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2335915/" target="_blank">1d6=6</a> Stone Rain recharges  Stealth:  <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2336442/" target="_blank">1d20+9=28</a> Halfling Slinger is hidden  Move:   to A32  Standard:  Stone Rain  Target:  Rujah  Attack:  <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2336443/" target="_blank">3X1d20+4+2(CA)=8;11;25</a> One Hit  Damage:  <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2336451/" target="_blank">1d6+4+1d6(CA) = 11</a>     Human Noble:  Standard:  Appoint Champion  Target:  Halfling Slinger  Attack Target:  Rujah  Attack:  <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2336459/" target="_blank">1d20+6=16</a> Miss  Effect:  Shift out of doorway.  Stealth:  <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2336466/" target="_blank">1d20+9=25</a> Halfling Slinger is hidden  Move (Human Noble):  A32  Minor (Human Noble): Close Door.     Spiretop Drake:  Standard:  Flyby Attack  Target:  Rujah  Attack:  B31, C31, D31, E31, F31, G31,  <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2336474/" target="_blank">1d20+4=17</a> Miss, F31, E31  Move:  D31, C31, B31, A32, Out of sight.  Stealth:  <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2336478/" target="_blank">1d20+4=24</a> Spiretop Drake is hidden[/sblock][sblock=Status]Rujah (9): H30 15/34 Bloodied HS 11/12 AP 2Jin (9): G27 18/27 HS 6/6 AP 2Riardon (6): G25 18/34 HS 8/8 AP 2Fenwick (13): F24 20/31HS 9/11 AP 1Dayna (10): E23 -2/22 Dying 2 saves failed HS 1/2 AP Uses Talon'sSpiretop Drake 2 (15): LKL A32 20/29<s>Human Bandit 1 (15): H23 -1/37 Dead</s> <s>Human Bandit 2 (15): G24 -4/37 Dead </s>  Human Bandit 3 (15): B30 13/37 Bloodied  Human Noble (15): LKL A32  60/60Halfling Slinger (15): LKL A32 18/22 <s>Human Knife Fighter (15): F25 -9/30 Dead</s>[/sblock][sblock=Map]<img src="http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss151/HMGimlord/TheHideoutRound5.jpg?t=1259451699" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />[/sblock][sblock=Enemies][/sblock][sblock=P8,Only]Nature wears a thin veneer in this rancid, subterranean tributary. Along the walkway to the south is a large pipe, belching excrement and rain runoff into the river. A ladder extends over the pipe, and beyond is a stairway, scaffolded over crumbling sandstone and up into the ceiling of the tunnel wall.  To the north, just beyond the boat, you notice something that eluded your eye before. The sandstone wall is slightly discolored for a ten-foot section. It appears that someone plastered over the wall with brown mortar, mixed with pyrite, made to look like the wall, but to your trained eye, it would only pass for sandstone in the dark. Your sunrod reflects garishly off the pyrite exposing the façade.It takes no strength at all to push the false door open exposing a forking passage beyond, cut into the wall of the tunnel. The sparkle of metal catches your eye in the space beyond the passage entry to the right. The path to the left disappears around a corner not twenty feet in.There is no secure place (besides, perhaps the sewer pipe) to re-moor the boat. It seems, however, that the boat was moored here as a means of escape in the event of discovery.Inside the coin purse is one gold piece, two silver piece, and one coin marked with a sheaf of wheat standing in a field of cotton.  It's made out of solid platinum.[sblock=Map]<img src="http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss151/HMGimlord/TheboatRound3.jpg?t=1259452841" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />[/sblock][sblock=Status]Success!  Skill Challenge Completed!  Talon (11):  Unknown 13(15)/26 Bloodied HS 6/8 AP 1 [/sblock][/sblock]</blockquote>
