[QUOTE="Jemal, post: 6175364, member: 9026"] [B]"Please, there is nothing to be concerned about, merely an unfortunate disagreement with a previous customer. He punched me and I expelled him from the establishment."[/B] The illithid glances around somewhat nervously as the dwarf starts to circle around behind him. [B]"I will have to insist that you stay on the customers side of the counter, Sir, or I will have to ask you to leave"[/B] Eleriknas looks at Darrian worriedly as the man disappears out the front door, then glances back to the Dwarf, then to Mei-Ying [B]"Please madam, if you could control your.."[/B] Before he can finish speaking, the doorway behind him slides open - startling the still-unseen Darrian, who had been approaching it at the time - it was almost as if it had magically sensed his intentions to enter. Everybody else glances to the empty doorway, and the Illithid's eyes go wide. Ur and Darrian, standing near the entrance, faintly hear something from down the hall. [COLOR="#008000"]"Oh to hell with this. Termination sequence initiate."[/COLOR] Eleriknas, looking at the open doorway with sheer terror, begins to speak in time with the voice the other two can hear [B]"oh to hell with this, termination... NO!!"[/B] He turns, attempting to flee the saucer, and then his head explodes, showering everybody in the room with Illithid Gore. Darrian dives through the open doorway, avoiding the splatter. [B][COLOR="green"]"Gotta do every damn thing myself."[/COLOR][/B] he hears a gravelly voice mutter in Orcish from a room at the end of the long hallway. [ooc] I did post that the door slid shut behind the illithid when he first came out of it! As Darrian approaches it slides open. He is still hidden though. Alright, so Eleriknas is now splat. Yes he was real, just cloaked with an epic nondetection spell. He was also being 'directed' on what to say - as Ur and Darrian have likely now figured out - by a mysterious figure in the next room. That will be combat time. The hallway is 10' wide and 100' long, with a room at the other end. From what Darrian can see (And anybody else who enters the hallway to look), the next room is a magical laboratory with dozens of instruments. It appears to be at least 50' across, but you can't tell how wide it is. The voice Ur and Darrian can hear is out of view to one side in the lab. Darrian is just inside the hallway. Ur is beside the door, the rest are wherever they want to be in the lobby 10-20' from the door. I rolled Init using what was listed on your sheets to save time: Darrian 25 Ur 22 Gerard 21 Tutek 17 **Badguy 16** Mei Ying 10 Braham 7 Sorry bout the nat 1's Kinem and Shayuri. Also kindof amusing that the two who get to post in the surprise round due to hearing the guy also got the highest initiatives.. Anyways, Darrian and Ur each get a surprise action. I dont think either of you can make it the 100' to get INTO the lab during your surprise round, and if you DO have something that can do it, I'm going to ask that you don't use it at this time, please. At the end of the surprise round, the following happens: [/ooc] A nearly 7 foot tall pale-skinned Orc in vicious looking armoured robes enters the hallway from the lab, looking at the group standing in the lobby a hundred feet away *And/or Ur if he enters the hallway* [img]http://images.mmosite.com/photo/2009/06/11/wowa343p52YkU0S45.jpg[/img] [COLOR="#008000"][B]"The Illithid's information is ours now, You should have left when you had a chance."[/B][/COLOR] his hands begin to glow with flame. [ooc] First off, no none of you recognize him. He appears just inside the other end of the hallway, movement was his 'surprise' round. If anybody has any knowledge skills they think would be appropriate to identify him, feel free to roll on Invisiblecastle and link. After he appears, top of initiative, so Darrian, Ur, Gerard, and Tutek feel free to post your actions in whatever order you wish, then I'll update for his turn. [/ooc] [/QUOTE]
