You all have a distinct feeling that Ogrin would also agree with Scun, was he conscious.

OOC for the DM:
I just realised I've made a boo-boo when creating Ogrin. To select Combat Expertise, Ogrin would need Int 13 (he has 12).

As I haven't used many charisma-based skills so far, would the DM object to me changing Int 12/Cha 12 to Int 14/Cha 10?
 

OOG: Character level up is pretty much the same as most games, except HP is 3/4 max. I'm not sure what else to say about the subject. But don't level up yet. You might run into something on your way to your rest point.

OOG2: Who's carrying who?
 

Also leery of the shadows and holes on this level, Scun stows his gear and prepares to carry the unconscious up the stairs.

oog:Scun is strong enough to carry both, but will need help getting them across the gap in the stairs. Someone take the lead and climb the stairs first please.
 

"Ah, mates, 'twas a tough battle, but ye all fought the good fight, eh? We showed those buggers who's who!" Rasereit roars at the centipedes skittering through the walls. "Nasty blighters, aren' theh? Well, Ah wish we could stay an' finish the rest of 'em, but by the looks of ye all, we're in no shape to be doin' much more today. Blast, we didn' get too far, did we? We got to watch our food supply, mates, we kin't do this 'one room/one day' routine for much longer. Ah'd suggest eatin' those creepy crawlers there, but considerin' what they did to our poor friend, might not be such a good idea. Nah, Ah got a bit o' bread, cheese, an' meat left, but it ain't gonna last me too much longer, let alone if it 'as t'be rationed out t'the rest o' ye. Ah say we rest and lick some wounds fer nah, but we got to push on as soon as we kin, eh mates?" Sheathing his axes, he looks around the area for anything anyone might be forgetting and proceeds to lead the way up the stairs. There he uses his stout stature to help Scun carry his burden across the gap and up to the next floor.
 

OOG to rln:

[sblock]It happens. Go ahead and make the needed adjustments.[/sblock]

The muscle-bound half-orc easily lifted his companions, hindered only by the mail suit that he wore. Dwarf and half-orc went up the stairs, with their companions' bodies in hand. They were careful to avoid the dangerous crack near the top.

The rest of the party watched the area carefully and followed after their unconscious companions had been carried upstairs safely.

Trusting in familiarity, the party went to Golgol's old room. They passed the Xorn's fallen form. It was dead.

They reached the room and found it as they left it.

oog: Watches? And if you're taking a watch without darkvision, you'll have to use up your own light source. Mona is running out of hers.

Also, how long is the party resting? Long enough for Scun to regain his spells?

The party uses up one more day's worth of food. EDIT: If they rest until Scun gets his spells. Otherwise, don't subtract from your foodsupply just yet.

Finally, level up your guys then email me for approval. Congrats! You all deserve it.

"I can watch first. If anybody has run out of food, come to me and I'll share mine. It is the Mongrel way. Mona, can you provide mundane healing for the lot of us? I'll assist if I can but I don't know much about it."

oog: How long are we talking about to rest until spells? Almost a day or has it been a while? We definitely want to rest 8 hours at least to get some natural healing and level up benefits.
 

oog: Last time, you guys rested until dawn (so Scun could get back his spells). It has been a few hours since then. Rasereit and Scun would probably be able to tell that it is noontime right now.

You only need 8 hours of rest to get the minimal benefits. You wouldn't eat up your rations for the day just yet. However, if you went after only 8 hours Scun wouldn't get his spells back (bec. he only gets them at dawn, I presume).

BTW, if you wait until dawn, you wouldn't get the benefits of a full day's complete rest, just the benefits of 8 hours' rest.


Mona smiled warmly at the suggesiton. "I'll do it. I'm glad to help out."

"But umm... You needn't assist me, Scun. You've been wounded and poisoned. You should definitely rest with the others." She added. At the moment, Mona did not look completely comfortable talking to Scun.
 

Rasereit sets his wounded friend on a "soft" spot on the ground. He makes him as comfortable as he can under the circumstances and then sits down for some chow. He opens his pack and looks at the meager amount of cheese and meat left. "Blast..." he curses under his breath as he takes a big bite. Through bites he declares to the party, "Well, by meh reckonin', 'tis about... noon, perhaps a bit past. Unless meh Mongrellian mate 'ere 'as an objection, Ah suggest weh take a nap an' get movin' again. Light ain't a problem fer me or 'im, but ye others're a different matter. Ye boys, and you, miss, apologies, have my opinion." With a final glance at the last bits of his food, he opens his great mouth and devours it all in one giant bite. "Well! That was good. Ought t'hold meh up fer a while, neh?" His stomache grumbles. "Hmm... Ah'll be takin' ye up on yer offer in a bit, Scun, me friend." Rasereit glances around at the sorry condition of his traveling companions and then gives Mona a look of sympathy. "'ow about Mona will take first watch and healin' duty, Ah'll take second, Scun or Rillian for the third, and whoever's left over for the fourth. Our friends need some well-earned rest, if Ah do say so." Without waiting for approval, Rasereit props his stout form in a sitting position in a cornor of the small room, hands on his weapons of choice. Soon his raucous snoring can be heard by all.
 

I forget that I'm a scary looking half-orc sometimes, but the cringing of a woman is enough reminder. Scun thinks dejectedly.

"I'll be ready to go after some rest as well. Mongrel helps those who help themselves, and we are in a hurry. No sense in waiting til tomorrow morning just for a few spells."
