Constables of the 14th Ward

"Perhaps that door can wait, gentlemen," Thea says once they're sure the visible opponents are down. "And while we ought to search them, that might wait as well. I think, perhaps, that we might want to check to see where these fellows came from- and whether any of their friends are still lurking about- I would hate to be climbing across that pit when more of them arrive unannounced..."

OOC: Maybe we ought to make sure there aren't more orcrats waiting just around the corner before we get too involved in checking the door. If we don't find anything else pretty quick we can get back to this, but I'd hate to have our GMs say "Well, since you didn't check..."

Darius politely disagrees with Thea. [highlight]"We should certainly post look-outs, but any delay only adds to our danger. Let's get those big doors opened and find Wally's campsite as quickly as possible."[/highlight][sblock=ooc]If the others agree, Darius will post himself at N32, keeping watch to the north and west[/sblock]

Wally to Darius, Come in Darius...

"Hey, you seem to be a pretty 'together' guy, for a hyooo-man, you got a secret to get us across that big hole full of vermin?" says Wally Alphonsus in his most diplomatic voice. {skill check, Diplomacy = 0.75}

OOC: ...but I'd hate to have our GMs say "Well, since you didn't check..."

OOC: Damn! Have we been playing this game so long that you know us so well already? We'll have to be more subtle next time.

Darius responds to Wally - [highlight]"Well, I can think of a number of possibilities. Y'all can use my grappling hook (perhaps after climbing back down into the hole), ask Raul to use his climbing skills, ask one of the mages to fly (or somehow get a rope across), or (my personal favorite) throw an orc across and make him or her open the door. We've also got a ladder and some crates back in that room with the water elemental to use if we need to."[/highlight][sblock=ooc]I'll be out of town from saturday thru wednesday without internet access. Louis can move Darius around if he so desires.[/sblock]

OOC: Is there anything on the other side that would serve as an adequate rope anchor? Would the rope have to be tied, or is there some structure that could serve as anchor the rope can be passed around and run back to us?

You're a BRAVE MAN leaving Dariius in the tender mercies of Lou!! (Or maybe just foolish?) (You DO like Darius, don't you??)

Anchors for Rope? Achor What? No, wait, that's the capital of ancient Cambodia

OOC: Is there anything on the other side that would serve as an adequate rope anchor? Would the rope have to be tied, or is there some structure that could serve as anchor the rope can be passed around and run back to us?

OOC: No structures, really. Unless you're all crazy enough to trust the full weight of each one of you to a door latch thingy. Maybe you need to all take a step back from the problem and really look at the whole sit-chee-ation first. And take a few deep breaths, while you're at it. hehe

"I've been wondering for a while now exactly why we need to get into that room. I'm not the most adept at keeping my sense of place underground, but it seems to me we've got access to everything the room could give us access to already, if y'all get my drift. Am I missing something?"

[sblock=OOC]Interestingly (or maybe not) I actually had been wondering about that, but didn't want to chance putting my foot in my mouth by saying so . . . maybe 'tis too late.[/sblock]

Jonas leaves Bruno at the intersection on guard while he heads down the hall and hangs a right to the room opposite the guard room. Searching for perhaps another way into the guard room that avoids the pit.

Big breath!
