OoC:Sorry foks, away from the comp today in a 'Munchkin' marathon,
yeah S-J-Games!
IC: Aranel amd Rurik mover along the parapet looking for an entrance as the others keep a low profile in the lee of the Parapet. Sir Ishmael keeps watch on the Woods, just able to occassionally make out the movement that signalled one of the horses tails or heads. Bron was there as well,and he briefly waved at Ishmael, spotting him on the wall looking out.
Aranel makes the short leap across the interveining space t a window slit, reaching out and pulling Rurik over as well (Rurik's Escape Artist check was successful).
The two 'fall' into a hallway in the Second Story of the monestary, noticing thai it is a long hall with several doors as well as suits of armor lining the walls (past heroes, no doubt).
Aranel leans back out, waving the other PCs over, oblivious of events unfolding inside...
Rurik looked about, keeping his eyes sharp and his weapon at hand.
A sudden force slammed into his back, feeling something rake across his neck and shoulders<3HP>. Turning, he sees a Man...or what was a man once not so long ago. The Feral Monk wears a habit of pale green, though it is both torn and blood-splattered. A once shaven head now sports short and spiky hair, and the man's eyes are yellow and slitted, like a Cat's, Fangs and long black talons complete Rurik's assessment that the man is hardly a civilized fellow at this point...
Aranel hears the commotion behind her, turning to see what has just happened.
Initiative
Rurik 19
Feral Monk 17
Aranel 14
The Feral Monk is in melee with Rurik, Aranel is 10' away.
<Ugh, he had a MS total of 23...Rurik had a 9 Listen, and Aranel had a 12, sorry folks..., Oh well, MORE XP!!!
Telerin,Whitefang and Sturm heard the attack, Ishmael and Kirin did not. You are all 40' away along the wall and outside. It will take a full round to safely get inside (Escape Artist check DC 5 for Sturm and Telerin), or an Escape Artist check of 10 (15 for Telerin and Sturm) to jump through on a normal move. Whitefang can easily jump the 5 feet and get inside...>
