OOC - Sorry about that.

nedander states, "Let's go through the door." He also holds the lantern higher so that everyone can see.

OOC-Oops!

Darius brandishes his sword and says "I'll go through the door." Then admires the environment around him, loving the darkness.
 

Opening the door, Darius finds that the hinges work pretty well for how old this door looks to be. The creaking sound it makes sends a shudder through most of you, knowing that the sound has now alerted anything or anyone near of your positions. Then the sound of a click and a hissing alerts Darius and Kevin, reactively causing them to crouch and expect an attack. With a sharp pain, Kevin feels the arrow slice through his leggings, embedding itself into his leg. (Trap Attack roll 19, hits for 3 damage)

As the Kevin walks in and is attacked, he quickly takes in his surroundings. The room that you find yourself looking into has a light cource coming from the left. The light dances alongside the walls, casting shadows and images while granting enough light to be able to see everything. Immediately to the right of the door, is the right hand wall, continuing for forty feet to the back. As Darius and Kevin enter first, they find that it was too late to react, as the sound of an arrow hissing in the air fills their ears. Then they see it. The sounds earlier must have given enough time for the Kobolds to quickly get behind some barrels and tables, which are now between you and them. You see their ling bullets fly towards you. Only two of them were ready, as the others were involved in something else. One bullet flies overhead, while the other glances aginst your collar bone, causing a little discomfort for Kevin. (Attack Rolls 16 and 10, One hits for 1 Damage)

Kevin - You are standing inside the doorway, blocking most of the others a clear view of what is happening. You can spot 5 Kobolds all behind furniture, while one of them is messing with a chain in the far corner. (Rolled 17 for Spot check) You see that the chain is around the neck of a very large weasel, glaring at you. The Kobolds seem to be yapping at the one with the chain, who is working on what appears to be a locking mechanism.

Darius - You can see the Kevin is being attacked, but can only see a few barrels near the far end of the room, with some creatures behind them. Then you realize from the yapping that they are Kobolds. Nasty little creatures that despise most beings. (Spot Roll 17)

Gray Sparrow - Watching the right pathway while the others investigate the door, you hear Kevin as he reacts to being hit by the arrow. You turn in time to see a stone bounce off the wall above his head, making a small spark.

Nyela - From your position, directly behind Kevin and Darius, you can barely make out what is going on, as you see the familiar sight of bullets fly at Kevin. Then the yapping gets your attention, as you realize that Kobolds must be in the room. You are able to spot the same scene as Darius, with the Kobolds directly on the opposite side, behind some barrels. (Spot Roll 16)

Nedander - Your lantern gives some help to the others, as they can see part of what is transpiring. You are to the left of the door, as Kevin is inside, and Darius is in the doorway. The sounds of battle are a little unaccustomed to your ears, as the yapping distracts you for a split second. Your tales tell of Kobolds and now you must face them.

OOC - End of surprise round. I am working on the map right now. Please halt on postings until I get the map uploaded. Your positions are marked with your initials, save for Nedander who does not list a last name. Kobolds are listed with K's and the Dire Weasel is DW. Objects are as they appear, from what you have spotted at least....



Alternates and new Characters, please hold tight, as I am working on your intro....and character sheets.

Kevin grimaces in pain from the feel of the dart in his leg and grimaces again at the arrow that hit his shoulder.

"That hurt you little buggers!"

Kevin dashes into the room and moves up to one of the barrels between him and a Kobold. Spinning around he unleashes his chain and sends it flying at the Kobold opposite him.

OOC:
Moving to position C5 and attacking the Kobold at position A5

8 Hp
18 AC

Attack +6-cover, 2d4+3/x2

Gray Sparrow seeing the attack will wait for the door way to clear and move into the room. Sizing up the situation she will move long the left hand wall and move next to the kobold on the far left.

OOC: Will do a full move to F1 once the way is open. If it is still blocked she will use her tumble skill to move past.
 

PLEASE CHECK OOC THREAD FOR UPDATES!!!

Initiatives are as follows:
Nyela - 24
Kevin - 21
Dire Weasel - 18
Darius - 11
Gray Sparrow - 7
Nedander - 5
Kobolds - 5

You can post actions in the frame of 'if' and 'then', to cover actions that others may alter, since they may go first. Please post alternatives to your actions, as others may affect your results. In other words, if Kevin and Darius stated they charged a certain Kobold, but Kevin killed it, Darius would then be left without an appropriate action. If he stated, "If KoboldY is killed, then I will attack KoboldX."

Simple enough? Well, let the battle continue....

GAME ON!!!

Nyela moves to B6 and attacks the kobold at A5 with her shortsword. "Oh no... nasty things!" She'll wait for those blocking her to move, delaying her move if necessary. If the kobold at that spot is slain, she sheates her sword and takes out her sling instead.

Nedander will start to sing (Inspire Courage, +1 to saves against charm/fear, attack,
and damage rolls) and then put down his lantern. If he can still move, he will move
into the doorway (H6) to survey the scene.
