[QUOTE="narayan, post: 6745143, member: 6677509"] [b]Avar, Billanverthorne, Jabbar[/b] [I]As you emerge from the tunnel, squeezing by the mechanical trap in the process which has not been reset yet, you find yourself in a small cave with four exits. Stacks of goods and supplies are piled in two places, some of which are obviously taken from other smugglers as they have no purpose for daily survival underground. There are five bandits waiting in a semi-circle around the tunnel entrance, blocking the exits. All of them are well-armed and armored. Two of them hold light crossbows (aimed at the floor) and the others have melee weapons at the ready. Two of them have lanterns they've placed on the ground by their feet to free up both their hands. Four of them are Akhenatens and the last is a Hill Dwarf. The Dwarf appears to be the leader, standing in the center of their formation. Avar and Jabbar step out from behind you at your flanks. [B]Avar:[/B] Holds up his torch and scoffs as he recognizes the dwarf. -Speaking Dwarven- [COLOR=#999900]"Odan RamHorn is that you?!"[/COLOR] The dwarf stiffens, looking a bit chagrined.
