Fallen World (Mature, Dark)

[Nephtys]

ooc: So what do you do? Disguise yourselves? Go invisible? Scout the cave, and in that case which ones go and which of you stay? Or do you simply shout your war-cries and slaughter all who get in your way?

 

[Gli'jar]

Canthan joins Mystic and pokes at the mushrooms. "I have no means to hide myself or others."

 

[Bloosquig]

Big shrugs his shoulders which ripple slightly attempting to stay the same color as the background around him.

"This is the best I can do for disguising myself. And it won't hold up against any serious attempt to find me."

[sblock=ooc] With Camo up I have a total +10 to hide checks. Hiding isn't really Big's thing. [/sblock]

"Let's try to keep the noise down from hereon in. It might also be worth considering taking steps to look innocuous... for my part, I could easily disguise myself as an elf. If anybody else could do the same, we might be able to pose as a patrol bringing in prisoners. Hardly a watertight story, but I think it'd serve well enough to get us most of the way."

In a hushed tone. "I too can take the form of an elf... But we have not seen their clothing or if they carry any specific markings. We may need to get a look at them before we can properly disguise ourselves."

 

[Autumn]

"Right," Ysande agrees with a nod. "So I'd suggest that you and Kaj scout ahead and see if you can get a good look at any uniforms or insignia."

 

[Nephtys]

Kaj walks off, stalking like a shadow and grinding his teeth in some pain he keeps to himself. A few minutes later he returns.
"The cave is empty, nothing here but some rats. The tunnel out of here leads first to another cave like this one then to a door of reinforced stone, murderholes above and flanked by arrowslits set high into the wall. A couple of elves guard the door on this side, clad in gray and green, their cloakes clasped by a buckle that looks like two red elm leaves."
I saw other passages branching off the other fungus-farm, but if there are other ways into the heart of the fortress they are probably also guarded."

ooc: Each of you take 1d6 hps of subdual damage from the descent. Kaj takes 1d6 normal hp damage and suffers an uncurable -2 to all ability scores (for as long as he's in Cel Candon).

 

[Autumn]

Ysande nods. "Well, if there's only two guards on that door... I say we take them out. We can get the uniforms accurate that way, and in any case our story won't hold any water at all this high up. The fight will need to be fast and silent. Can we manage that?"

She looks between the others, hoping that even if they so far aren't proving so hot on the 'ideas' department they may come through with some competence where it counts.

 

[Bloosquig]

"Killing them quick won't be a problem though they might make some noise in the couple seconds it takes to subdue them. If you guys can take one out silently I can take the other one quietly though." Big muses.

[sblock=ooc] For some reason I cannot access my subscribed threads and I'm having problems finding the rogue gallery. If someone could link it for me again I'll save it as a favorite till I can get this fixed. Anyway I've got two ideas. One a quick rush and hack and slash and depending on how tough they are they go down in a jiffy. Otherwise we can assassinate one and I'll rush and grapple/silence the other. Either way would work but the second would probably be quieter. Plus it gives us a prisoner. [/sblock]

Ysande nods. "Well, if there's only two guards on that door... I say we take them out. We can get the uniforms accurate that way, and in any case our story won't hold any water at all this high up. The fight will need to be fast and silent. Can we manage that?"

"That shouldn't be a problem give me a moment or two... Big if my attacks should fail I welcome your assistance." Aeryk smiles and casts one of his favorite spells to cloak his movement (Greater Invisibility). He then proceeds to where Kaj saw the two guards.

 

[Gli'jar]

"Two. Quite manageable." Canthan tries to stifle a giggle, "One of you will need to kill me." He pauses then inflects his voice to add emphasis After I finish casting my spell . I will trade places and faces with one of the elven guards. Aeryk, I will finger the buckle so you know who not to kill. Strike immediately after I make my incantation and you are given the signal."

[sblock=OOC] If the others are agreeable, Canthan will move within range and cast translocation trick on one of the guards. Will DC25, range 230' duration 130 min. Both targets will switch places simultaneously as if using a dim door spell. I will be affected as if with a disguise self spell[/sblock]
