Constables of the 14th Ward

[Scotley]

[sblock=Thea]Thea does have initiative and will get her spell off. The crawlers weren't expecting you to 'drop in', so I didn't give them a surprise round. Likewise, I didn't think you'd be ready for a fight when the bottom fell out, so we started even.[/sblock]

 

[Leif]

Moru Sen

Retbi chitters [sblock=Retbi to Moru, come in Moru!]"Let's see, Igor Davidson, Igor Davidson....Yeah, I think I remember him: wasn't he that funny looking dude with one green eye and one blue eye who always smelled like hemlock?"[/sblock]

 

[Lou]

Raul's action

Raul yells to the others, "Two in a hole! Three creepy-crawlers in sight! I'm going in!"

Raul will attempt to use the nearest wall to slow fall to the lower level to attack the nearest crawler empty handed.

[sblock=OOC]My guess is that Raul will not get an attack this round but feel free to correct me.[/sblock]

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

SoulFetter

Hearing Raul's yell, SoulFetter moves back to the party with his bow at the ready.


OOC:

Looks like a couple of rounds before he can be in a position to do anything - plan is to stop close to the edge of the hole (wherever the boards start creaking dangerously) and fire down at the critters.

 

[Helfdan]

Alarion of Tovarre

Bruised, battered, and wracked with coughing, Alarion does not waste his breath in speech. He draws his sword as he steps in front of Thea, ready to defend her with his life.

[sblock=OOC]

Great, more fort saves for me to fudge coming up...
Alarion will use his Bulwark of Defense ability to try to keep them from Thea
He will also ready a standard action to attack any beast that comes in range
Attack 24, damage 8
Should he get an AoO due to Bulwark ability:
Attack 22, damage 4

penalties for sickened are included
[/sblock]

 

[xedr]

Finding the edge of the hole, Darius drops down one end of a rope and begins looking for some way to secure the other end in place (e.g., an exposed floor beam). If he can't find a spot, he'll back up to the corner and brace himself there to bear the weight of any climbers.

 

[jkason]

Moru Sen, human conjurer

Moru waves the dust away with mild annoyance, though he can feel Retbi's stomach turning through their empathic link.

"No puking in the backpack, Retbi!" Moru chitters as he squints to get his bearings again. The familiar leans over the side of the backpack, instead, doing its best to keep its recent lentil snack down. Realizing his crossbow will be useless given the circumstances, Moru stows it in favor of his truncheon.

[sblock=OOC]Moru Save 10. Just eked by there.

Retbi save 7, sickened 1 round

Moru initiative 9

Oi. Well, with the visibility what it is, I'll go with switching weapons with my actions for now. Too bad I burned that Summon Monster 3, already. Could have used an air elemental to clear out this dust...[/sblock]

 

[Leif]

Darius Watson

Finding the edge of the hole, Darius drops down one end of a rope and begins looking for some way to secure the other end in place (e.g., an exposed floor beam). If he can't find a spot, he'll back up to the corner and brace himself there to bear the weight of any climbers.

Darius sees an irregular projection just below the edge of the pit that looks like it might serve as an achor point. It's certainly not an achor point to which Sir Edmund Hilary would prefer to trust his life, but given the relatively low risk involved here, Darius is pretty sure that it'll do in a pinch.

 

[Leif]

Retbi Sen

"Not to worry boss. Weasels don't puke. You should be more worried about me having the runs on your pajamas in here!" chitters Retbi.

 

[Fenris]

Jonas staggers to his feet, still coughing and wiping the dust from his face. He joins Darius on the the rope line, helping to hold the line for the climbers.
