[IC1] Pool of Radiance

[Mista Collins]

Selvaggio waits patiently with weapons in hand as Kylest sets about getting a look.

Eldwyn

Eldwyn carefully shuffles the monster summoning and flame strike scrolls to the top of the stack in case of trouble. Turning to his fellow 'halfling' with the arcane scrolls he says, "I cannot make use of most of these, what about you?"

Kylest climbs up to the walkway, in order to get a view of what's happening outside. He slips once, but can hold on to the wooden construction, which appears rather dilapidated after all those years. Eventually, the athletic dwarf manages to reach a window and take a look.

Kylest:
[SBLOCK]A good dozen orcs are scattered in front of the entrance. They are clad in leather or chain armor and have a variety of weapons, most of them of the typical kind for orcs, big and powerful. Some carry bows as well. Some are still grumbling and arguing and they are obviously waiting for something. A bit farther away, an ogre is sharpening the rather nasty-looking nails driven through his greatclub. Another orc, or is it a half-orc, comes into view then. He is clad in a black chain armor with an overtunic showing the symbol of Bane and carries a heavy flail. This one has an aura of authority around him. Two more orcs, one of the brawnier kind, the other looking more like a shaman, are flanking him.[/SBLOCK]

[sblock=ooc]Are the orcs looking towards the temple, as in waiting for us to come out, or more looking outwards as if waiting for the Banite to arrive?[/sblock]

With a scowl written deeply on his face, Kylest makes his way carefully down from the ricketty walkway and walks back to his companions.

"There's a small army camped out there. Around a dozen orcs plus an ogre, and it looks like they're all getting ready for worship, because a Banite priest just showed up. This place is supposed to be the temple they're using? I think we can expect company shortly."

"Just perfect..." Exclaims the dwarf in a soft sarcastic tone. An army is not what I had in mind... Looking over the Gnome Priest she ask quickly, "The gig is up unless we can find another way out or hide us and those bodies. Ideas?" She motions to the bleeding Orcs lying motionless in the middle of the walk way.

 

[Voadam]

Eldwyn carefully shuffles the monster summoning and flame strike scrolls to the top of the stack in case of trouble. Turning to his fellow 'halfling' with the arcane scrolls he says, "I cannot make use of most of these, what about you?"

"I am a champion of the Spell-lord. I can use items of arcane magic but have not the magic to read scrolls at the ready."

 

[Thanee]

The wands have activation phrases written in runic script onto them, and while it's unclear what effect they will produce, it should be possible to let them produce an effect, if the wielder is generally able to use such an item.

 

[Voadam]

Kordunn will take the wands and tuck them into his belt, just in case. He has his magic blade out though and keeps a hand free for spellcasting.

 

[Thanee]

“Any plans what we should do, when they start bashing down the doors? From the sound of it, that's what will happen shortly, right? We best use our currently superior position here, if there is no way to get out of here unnoticed,” Dirtan says, while looking around.
