Guran listened to the voices and chanting to see whether he can understand a word of it.Colden moved backward, away from the open door in the corridor.  He gave Guran the 10' of space he knew the dwarf liked, but otherwise stood at the ready, his weapon in hand.  By the time Colden backed up to make room for Guran, Colden stood 30' from the dogleg at the far end of the corridor.Fulgrim stood fast in the middle of the t-intersection.  He didn't see anything, but he heard the chanting and the voices, none of which was intelligible to his ear.  The rhythmic nature of the chanting boded ill in his experience, though.  He kept his warhammer drawn and at the ready, but there was nowhere to move without stepping all over his comrades, so he stayed put and readied an action in case a dastardly foe deigned to show its face at the dogleg.[ooc]In the interest of getting this going, I'm providing the descriptive fluff for what I think Fulgrim would be likely to do based on what I've observed him doing in the past.  He still, however, has an action and movement before I start combat rounds, and you are welcome to state it for him.  I will forward things to the first round Sunday 7 pm.[/ooc]Roscoe stood his ground, 10' south of the juncture at the t-intersection of the corridor and the hallway, and pulled out his sword.  He waited to see who was coming, probably some filthy Orcs.[ooc]Strahd, I'm sorry, but I am sticking with the 6 I rolled for Roscoe.  There's just been too much back and forth, and I think everyone would appreciate the clarity afforded by getting the init order settled so that we can commence combat rounds.[/ooc][ooc]All--it's the weekend, and I know some of you don't check the site on the weekend.  I will be calling for Round 1 actions sometime after 7 pm on Sunday, so if you want to tweak what your character does before the encounter begins in full, now's the time.  I thought about not posting anything at all until then and just waiting it out to see who showed up to state actions, but since I also sensed a little bit of confusion about who was where and whether anything could be seen at the dogleg, I thought I'd better post today to clarify.[/ooc]</blockquote>
