(Adventure) The Island of Varras'zul (Manzanita Judging) (Concluded)

[Rae ArdGaoth]

Razh boldly steps toward the suspicious wall and feels around with his hands, cautiously, using his innate dwarven stonecunning to find any kind of hidden door.

Ogrin sneaks back to T12 and takes a sneak peak around the corner towards O12. If he sees nothing out of the ordinary, he will sneak over to O12 and investigate the wall.

 

[nimisgod]

Rasereit found that the wall was solid. Of a secret door, he found no sign.

Ogrin:

Spoiler

What are you using as a light source?

 

[rln]

OOC:

Spoiler

No light source. If he doesn't see or hear anything, he will sneak up to O12 as described above.

OOC2: I'll be going to the US (Washington DC) on a business trip, which means my internet connectivity may be a bit shaky during tuesday.

Ogrin:

Spoiler

Ogrin explored the lightless room, (Move Silently: 23) listening carefully for any noise the he could hear. He heard nothing but the dripping water. Sticking to the wall and walking slowly, the halfling was surprised to hear the grinding noise come up behind him.

Pain surged through his body as something bit into his torso (Attack: 8 +6 +2 =16, Damage: 9 +2 =11). And he faded into unconsciousness.

ooc: Ogrin is at -3/8

Ogrin disappeared wordlessly around the corner while Rasereit searched the wall.

In the silence of the moment, four sounds could be heard by everyone. The first was a grinding noise. The next was of a cry of pain, followed by a body hitting the ground. The grinding noise repeated itself once more before falling to silence. These sounds came from the other side of the wall, where Ogrin went to.

 

[Brain]

Scun hefts his club and moves out in a wide arc, hoping to see whatever is going on rather than bump into it.

 

[RillianPA]

"We better all go see what's happened to Ogrin. I suggest we follow Scun's path."

 

[Rae ArdGaoth]

"Aye, but go cautiously. Curse that fool for runnin' off alone!" Razh carefully works his way back towards the entrance of the cavern, both his axes drawn. Every few seconds his jumps and spins around, axes raised, as though some slight sound has startled and enfuriated him.

 

[nimisgod]

Mona agreed with the party's strategy.

Moving together, the party cautiously investigated the noise.

It was as they expected. They found the body of Ogrin, bloody and prone on the ground. Mona gasped, but retained the sense of mind not to go out rushing alone.

Ogrin:

Spoiler

Ogrin is now at -4 (stabilization: 51)

 

[Rae ArdGaoth]

Using his darkvision from his current vantage poing, Rasereit does a quick scan of Ogrin's wounds, judging probable cause and direction of the attack. "Everyone on the alert, right? Mona, you and Scun, come 'ere. Mona, stan' behind meh, Scun, watch our backs and walk with us, a'right?" Rasereit waits for agreement or some other plan.
