Dungeon of the Fire Opal, part 4

[Doppleganger]

When Murhid and Ivellios return from the sideroom, the elf shrugs his shoulders and looks disappointed, "Nope. Nothing lurking in there."

Then he knots his badly scarred and hairless eyebrows together in a look of puzzlement, "Wasn't that screaming thing right around here somewhere?"

 

[reapersaurus]

"Yep!
That screaming mushroom was just up ahead, and to the left -
*Ubaar points across the central hall to the dark corridor he had previously scouted*

Let's check it out - we didn't look up there at all, after the imps and the witch attacked us from behind."

*Ubaar moves across the hall as sneakily as he goes and leads the way down the eastern corridor again, taking the left turn and listening at the door before waiting for the others to join him, and then he'll open the western door expecting another shrieker or something before moving in.

If the group doesn't follow after him, he'll check it out, then come back before opening the door and report his findings.

 

[Doppleganger]

The elf will try to use his acute & pointy ears to guide him along behind Ubaar, listening for the faint chinkling of the half-orc's armor and weapons.

Twisting his head back over his shoulder, he looks towards Murhid a moment before fading into the darkened corridor, "Bring that light along again, tall one!"

 

[Taz]

“I'll wait here, guys!”

 

[Jalon Odessa]

"Yep!
That screaming mushroom was just up ahead, and to the left -
*Ubaar points across the central hall to the dark corridor he had previously scouted*

Let's check it out - we didn't look up there at all, after the imps and the witch attacked us from behind."

Recognising that it would take an act of the gods to stand between Ubaar and his impulsiveness, Jalon, magical torch in-hand, follows closely behind the half-orc.

 

[Sollir Furryfoot]

Sollir waits with Taz, his shortbow ready....

"Don't take all day Ub..ubu? uba..." Sollir mutters, "oh darnit I forgot again."

 

[reapersaurus]

Ubaar waits for the others to mass behind the door.
He looks back, and holds up his hand with 3 fingers... then 2 fingers... one finger..... then he opens the door swiftly yet quietly, his greatsword at the ready.

 

[Murhid]

"Bring that light along again, tall one!"

Murhid acknowledges Ivellios with a slight nod. Murhid then takes another sunrod (unlit), strikes it with the ground, and takes it to Ivellios.
"Have one of your very own, elf. Where you go running off next, oneself may not want come."
Murhid then prepares for Ubaar to open the door.

 

[Doppleganger]

"You better keep that stick-of-light thing yourself Fist-Man, I need both hands free for weaponry..."

Ivellios switches back to longbow & arrow again, marching into rank at Jalon's side, right behind the two point men - Ubaar and Murhid.

 

[Murhid]

"Very well"
Murhid puts the sunrod out, and slides it back into his pocket.

OOC: For the record, Murhid has his sunrod fixed to his hip, through the use of his belt.
